Writing data from PaPM to Group Reporting using GRDC and the import API

[nfranck]

Hi experts

For a project, we are looking to read data from the ACDOCU table in group reporting into PaPM, perform some calculations in PaPM and then post the output back to the ACDOCU table. (Both GR and PaPM are on premise, and on the same client).

For the writing back we are struggling a little. We are trying to use the import API in GRDC (Group Reporting Data Collection) to write to the ACDOCU table from an external system but we do not know what code exactly to use for this and if it is possible to add this code in PaPM and executing this code by linking it to a certain function.

Is there anyone who has experience in setting up this API, or knows of other ways to achieve this goal (since PaPM and GR are on the same client).

Thanks in advance for your help

Kind regards

Nathan

Hi Nathan,

We currently work on integrating PaPM with Group Reporting using APIs "Group Journal Entry Item Extraction" (for reading data) and "Journal Entry for Group Reporting - Post" (for writing data via a new option in Remote Function Adapter). Ideally this new RFA type will be shipped with SP21 on of March, but at the latest with SP22 end of June.

Best regards, Thomas.
