Function Module for Reports
The extraction of SAP ABAP reports requires the installation of a custom function module in your SAP system.
Download /THEO/REPORT
The SAP transport request THEO_REPORT.zip for installing /THEO/REPORT is available for download in the Customer Portal or you can copy it from the installation directory of Xtract Universal, e.g., C:\Program Files\XtractUniversal\ABAP\Report\. Which transport request you can use depends on your SAP system:
Install /THEO/REPORT
Import the transport request THEO_REPORT.zip into your SAP system using the SAP Transport Management System (TMS).
For more information, see Knowledge Base: Import an SAP Transport Request.
Upgrade to /THEO/REPORT
Before upgrading from Z_XTRACT_IS_REMOTE_REPORT to /THEO/REPORT, it is recommended to delete the existing custom function module from the SAP system. Xtract Universal provides deletion transport requests to support clean upgrades.
You can download the deletion transport request Z_XTRACT_IS_REMOTE_REPORT_DELETE_TR.zip in the Customer Portal or you can copy it from the installation directory of Xtract Universal, e.g., C:\Program Files\XtractUniversal\ABAP\Report\Deletion-TR\.
After deleting the existing function module, you can then install the new version of /THEO/REPORT.
Authority Objects for /THEO/REPORT
Access to reports require explicit authorization. There are 2 ways to verify that an SAP user is allowed to read data from a report:
- Use authentication groups, see Authorizing Access to Reports via Authorization Groups.
- Use the custom authorization object Z_TS_PROG, see Create and Configure the Custom Authorization Object Z_TS_PROG.
