Batch Mode Entity Sending

Info

Pre-execution Requirements

Before executing an entity and sending information in batch mode, ensure that the entity is correctly created and configured. Likewise, confirm that the endpoint configuration is properly set up and tested.

Execution Steps

Enter transaction ZONT_ONECM


Double-click the entity to be sent (it should appear selected at the top).
Click the "Execute" button.


Select the parameters for data transmission:
    • Output Type: Choose whether to send the field’s technical name (field name) or the alias/label assigned to the field (field label).
    • Output Format: Select between KDOC (Kafka document, structured as an IDOC-like XML string), Table format (structured with records and columns in a table format), or both (sending KDOC and table structure).
    • Endpoint Connection: Select the previously created RFC connection from transaction SM59
Click "Execute" at the bottom of the popup or press F8
.

Batch Sending Criteria Selection

On the next page, all possible batch selection criteria will appear on the left side. These are columns marked as “Selection” in the entity configuration.

Double-click the field to be set as the sending criterion to display the selection options.
Select the criterion for sending the entity.
Once criteria are defined, click "Save"
.

Choosing Execution Mode

Select the execution mode for data sending:

  • Online: Recommended when the data volume is small, or the process does not exceed the available SAP user memory.
  • Background: Recommended for large data volumes to prevent memory issues. Also useful for scheduling execution at a specific date and time.

Online Mode Execution

If executed in Online mode, a summary log will appear at the end, displaying:

  • Sent tables with their aliases
  • TOTAL_SIZE_SENT: Total bytes sent
  • TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_REQUEST: Number of requests made
  • TOTAL_NUMBER_OF_RECORDS: Number of records sent for the entity

Check the destination system to verify if the information was received correctly.


Background Mode Execution

A job configuration window will appear to schedule the execution time.
Select the desired execution time.
Click "Save"
.

Once completed, the data sending process will execute at the configured time.

Generated jobs and their results can be reviewed in the "Display Job Sched." menu.
