Copy Line Items to Satellite

SAT_LINEITEMS

* from Allevo version 3.0 (modified in 3.5)

If Allevo is used for offline planning or Reporting, no connection to SAP is established. Hence, there is no display of line items available via the Allevo planning dialog (PopUp). 

For such a case, Allevo offers a satellite-based solution: the relevant line items are copied to a defined satellite via ABAP report /KERN/IPP_SAT_LITEMS and transferred to Excel.

The corresponding transaction /ALLEVO/SAT_LITEMS may be executed in two ways: in mode L (= layout), information on the relevant satellites are defined via the entered layout or the constant SAT_LINEITEMS.

Important: In the new execution mode M (= Mapping) of transaction /ALLEVO/SAT_LITEMS, constant SAT_LINEITEMS does no longer have any meaning!

In principle, all information available also in the normal Allevo line item list may be transferred. The corresponding fields are (depending on the object type) stored in a structure /KERN/IPP_S_xx_OFFL_ITEM_ACT in ABAP dictionary: here, “xx” is to be replaced by the respective object type (e.g. in KS, all the fields contained in /KERN/IPP_S_KS_OFFL_ITEM_ACT are available).

Constant SAT_LINEITEMS has the following parameters:

· Enter the satellite number in field Value from.

· In table appends, fields are normally created using an introducing ID, such as “ZZ”. This ID is to be entered in Value to.

Example: The document date of the line item list shall be transferred (field BILDAT). The constant contains the ID ZZ in „Value to“. Then, the corresponding field in the satellite append must be called ZZBLDAT.

Note:

From Allevo 3.4, the dictionary structures named above sometimes contain components of the /KERN/ naming environment (e.g. /KERN/KOSTL instead of KOSTL, as in the original SAP tables with line items). This adjustment was necessary for reasons of the compatibility with S/4Hana. The satellite must still contain the original field with the agreed prefix (e.g. ZZKOSTL): Allevo itself ensures correct assignment of contents.
