Dynamic filter on SAP Table

Good Day 

 

I am using multiple filters on SAP tables to extract the data. The question i have is now the workflow needs to be scheduled and every run picks the data for for date field. 

 

For Date the filter is 20211020 and i run the workflow and get the output. So far so good. 

However, i need to create a schedule for this where the SAP table has a filter range 

For example when todays schedule runs it picks the data from the last 5 days, and tomorrow again the last 5 days 

(Todays run needs to pick the range - (20211021-20211025)

 

Any ideas ?

How are you connecting to SAP?  An ODBC driver?

 

Have you experimented with the in-DB tools?

I am using the SAP Table Data tool. Searching for the table names and selecting the fields.

It looks like the SAP Table Data tool is a third-party tool from DVW Analytics. I haven't used that tool.

 

See if this Gallery post post from DVW helps, or consider contacting DVW:

The Alteryx Connector for SAP (ACS) SAP Table Data tool from DVW Analytics is used to extract data from SAP Tables, SAP Views and SAP S/4HANA CDS Views. The example workflows show some of the features of the SAP Table Data tool including field selection, application of filters and the use of splits to optimize workflow performance.
