I have question related to mapping fields of a extract structure to infocube

Taking 2LIS_11_VAITM as an example. This DS will have many fields but what if the infocube relevant to this DS need only few fields out them???? do I have to map the fields in the transfer sturctue of insource manually according to the cube?????? In that case what if i wanna use the same Infosource to another infocube having different dimensions....I am confused GURUS help me out plzzzzz.

Hi,

You have an option to hide the field that you don't need in the data source itself. If you choose this option, data will not flow from the source system to info source.

If there is a need to update multiple data targets i.e. two cubes in your example, you can disable the update rules and set them to 'no update'. In this manner, you can update data directly from the info source.

Sometimes, certain fields are hidden by SAP in the data source. You can check and enable that by looking at table ROOSFIELD.

With regards,
