Is it possible to extract the text fields from SAP systems to Celonis EMS? Eg: STXL is a cluster table which stores information about text fields but in LRAW format. Is it possible to convert it during our data extraction process and visualize as string?

Hi Vamshi,

 

that is not possible.

You can only read the data by using FM: READ_TEXT

 

I found a possible workaround in another community.

They solved it by scheduling a daily report that translates the table into another table. Then you can extract this translated table to Celonis EMS. But I am not sure if it is worth doing it.

Hi Vamshi,

 

Follow this celonis documentation for STXL table data need.

It says forbidden

Use: https://docs.celonis.com/en/extracting-the-table-stxl.html

 

It describes the same thing as I mentioned. But good point from Muthappan to point at the documentation. Didn't know that Celonis provides a converter program.

 

"Rather than extending the RFC Module functionality, we have developed a separate program (the attachment is at the end of the page) that decrypts STXL into a readable format using the native SAP function READ_TEXT, and then writes this data into another table - ZSTXL.

This table can be afterwards extracted using our standard RFC Extractor."


Thanks for the information.
