dfConnector for SAP: Framework
Function modules written in ABAP use a standard „call function destination“ to invoke a method that is not part of the current SAP system
The „call function destination“ invokes dfConnector listening at the specified destination
dfConnector gathers all parameters and initiates the appropriate call into dfIntelliServer using its Java client API
![Page 9: Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. Real-time Data Quality for SAP Dietrich O. Banschbach Manager, R&D EMEA SAS International](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649e175503460f94b02f60/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)

Scenario 3: Inconsistent or unresolvable addresses
Neither post code nor city are specified
User insists on saving a record even though the entry could not be validated
To ensure high availability of the SAP system, address data can still be entered and saved if dfConnector and/or dfIntelliServer are temporarily unavailable. Entries are marked as not having been checked against official address reference data. Those addresses can be corrected in the dfConnector Quarterly Address Adjustment process which checks and updates in batch mode

Scenario 4: Duplicate search
The following scenario shows the duplicate search and elimination capabilities of DataFlux dfConnector for SAP
The scenario first shows how easy it is (caused by a small typo) to create a duplicate customer record in the SAP database without dfConnector
In comparison, the same process is performed using dfConnector for SAP to identify potential duplicates and resolve the situation
![Page 26: Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. Real-time Data Quality for SAP Dietrich O. Banschbach Manager, R&D EMEA SAS International](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649e175503460f94b02f60/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 26
Scenario 4: Duplicate search
Using the standard SAP search, the user first checks in SAP if the customer he would like to create does not currently exist. But accidentally he has a small typo in the street name (Wesston instead of Weston)
![Page 27: Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. Real-time Data Quality for SAP Dietrich O. Banschbach Manager, R&D EMEA SAS International](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649e175503460f94b02f60/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 27
Scenario 4: Duplicate search
The search returns no hits and the user proceeds under the assumption he can now create a unique customer
He creates and saves a new customer entry, thus creating a duplicate
![Page 28: Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. Real-time Data Quality for SAP Dietrich O. Banschbach Manager, R&D EMEA SAS International](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649e175503460f94b02f60/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)

Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 33
Scenario 4: Duplicate searchTransaction flow
Address data is entered in SAPGUI. Postal address validation executes
The /DATAFLUX/ADDR_SEARCH implementation of the BAdI „ADDRESS_SEARCH“ is invoked
Function module /DATAFLUX/DUPLICATE_CHECK searches for duplicates
/DATAFLUX/DUPLICATE_CHECK calls dfConnector which gathers the entered SAP data.
Matchcodes are generated dynamically and a JDBC call is made to retrieve results from the external RDBMS. The results of the search are returned to dfConnector which passes them to SAP to display a list of potential duplicates
![Page 34: Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. Real-time Data Quality for SAP Dietrich O. Banschbach Manager, R&D EMEA SAS International](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649e175503460f94b02f60/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 34
Scenario 5: Quarterly adjustment process
Quarterly Adjustment is a batch process that ensures address data stays up to date
If new address data are available e.g. from USPS, this can be activated in the system in three steps by running:
• SAP report to get all addresses
• DataFlux provided report to check, standardize and auto complete addresses
• SAP report to write the updated addresses back to the SAP database
![Page 35: Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. Real-time Data Quality for SAP Dietrich O. Banschbach Manager, R&D EMEA SAS International](https://reader036.vdocuments.mx/reader036/viewer/2022062804/56649e175503460f94b02f60/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Copyright © 2005, SAS Institute Inc. All rights reserved. 35
Scenario 5: Quarterly adjustment process
RSADRQU1 report scans all addresses for a certain country and inserts them into an index table
/DATAFLUX/RSADRQU2 reads all SAP addresses from index table and validates each address. Addresses are checked, auto completed and standardized.If an address cannot be validated it is flagged for later reporting purposes. Indicates the level of address quality, i.e. how many addresses are correct and how many are incorrect
RSADRQU3 writes back validated and corrected addresses to the operational SAP database. Alternatively reports reason for not being able to write them back
