SAP BW: Plausibility Check in Transformations and Conversion Routines
In the SAP BW system, a plausibility check for an InfoObjects considers the following aspects
· The use of small characters,
· The use of special characters,
· The plausibility of date fields,
· The plausibility of time fields,
· The use of character values in the fields of the NUMC data type, and
· Correct observance of the ALPHA conversion routine
Instead of using the Plausibility Check on DataSource level, you can implement a Plausibility Check using one of 2 approaches:
1. As a customer defined Conversion Routine in the InfoObject
2. In a Routine within the Transformation
Details of the approaches and sample source coding can be found in the SAP Note 1460342.
