Update Mode

The ODP extraction type can be used for delta extractions. This means that only recently added or changed data is extracted, instead of a full load. The data that is extracted is defined by the Update Mode setting in the main window of the extraction type.

Update Modes

Full update

Extracts all data (full mode).

Delta update

Runs a delta initialization, if no delta initialization is available for the selected subscriber. Runs a delta update, if there is a delta initialization for the selected subscriber. A delta update only extracts data that was added or changed on the SAP system since the last delta request.

• Extract data
  Allows extracting data when running a delta initialization. Leaving this checkbox unchecked runs a delta initialization without extracting data.
  
• Auto-sync subscription
  Allows deletion of the existing subscription and creates a new subscription, if required. Each extraction has an internal ID, which is part of the subscriber. If you change the filter of an extraction after the delta initialization, the Auto-sync subscription option automatically deletes the existing subscription and creates a new one. A subscription is deleted, if the error message "Illegal change in selection parameters" returns from the SAP system. To delete subscriptions manually, see Subscriptions.

Delta recovery

Re-runs the last delta update.

Direct read (without ODQ)

Directly reads all available data, bypassing the ODQ (Operational Delta Queue). Direct read is the only update mode that supports data aggregation functions (Maximum, Minimum and Sum).
