Manually extracting SAP data using the Control-M SAP jobs extractor

This procedure describes how to extract SAP data using the Control-M SAP jobs extractor so that you can import your data manually to Control-M.

To extract SAP data:

1. Extract the BMC Control-M SAP jobs extractor.zip file from the following location:

   <Conversion Home>\scripts\SAP\BMC_CONTROL-M_SAP_jobs_extractor.zip

2. Download the sapjco3.jar and sapjco3.dll C library files from http://service.sap.com/connectors.
3. In the left pane, under Connectors, click SAP Java Connector and then click Tools & Services.
4. In the right pane, under SAP Java Connector (SAP JCo), click the quick link to download SAP JCo Release 3.x.
5. Download the required files from that section and copy the sapjco3.jar and sapjco3.dll C library files to the following path:

   <BMC Control-M SAP Jobs extractor folder>

6. Run the sapextgui.cmd command.

   The BMC Control-M SAP Jobs Extractor window appears.

7. In the SAP Connection field, complete the SAP parameters.

   NOTE: To test the connectivity to the SAP system, click Test Connection.

8. In the Jobs Filter field, complete the mandatory parameters:
   • Job Name
   • User Name
   • Job Status

   NOTE: The remaining parameters are optional. "*" characters can be used for Job Name and Job Count.

   Once the data is completed you can save the file and retrieve it at later stage by using the Load Rule File and Save Rule File buttons.

9. To extract jobs, click Get Jobs.

   A confirmation message appears.

10. Click Yes.

    NOTE: When jobs have extracted successfully, the bar at the bottom of the screen reaches 100% and a confirmation message appears.

    The jobs have been successfully extracted.

    Open the Conversion Tool and import the data, as described in Defining a new SAP Conversion project.
