Data events is truly a remarkable feature as you can emit whole chunk of relevant data to the event mesh and you don't need to worry about relevant API calls, which you have to make during notification events. The another most advantage of data events that you can combine data coming from multiple databases and sync in your views as per your business scenario. there is a nice blogs post from muralidaran.shanmugham2explaining a detailed feature of this Addons.
Please go through the below both parts to do the quick setup and receive the events into your Queue. Just make sure that in this scenario we are considering Material Business object BUS1001.
We have to create database view to fetch data from General Material Data(MARA) , Material Descriptions (MAKT) and Units of Measure for Material(MARM). The idea is to fetch all relevant data for material master and push to event mesh.
You have to ensure that your joining condition be as simple as it can be so that it can hit all the required DB and fetch all the relevant data .
It's time to edit the outbound objects of your add-ons and update few details as shown in the snapshot below. You will notice that the database view detail are also given the Extraction View Name. Ensure that your Extraction Function Module and Formatting Function should also be same as shown in figure below.
Create Material using MM01 and give the below details and monitor the events in event mesh. Have you notice something really exciting!!
We have released a Mission for event-driven extension scenario for SAP ERP 6.0 which is available on SAP Discovery Centre . You can watch the Mission Demo video from here. This will demonstrate how we can extend the SAP ECC without disrupting any core business processes. To get more insight about our extension scenario and steps involved, Please refer our sample reference application here
