Xtract Universal
Xtract for Alteryx
Xtract IS
Data Extraction
Easily transfer data from SAP
for use in other systems
Using Xtract Universal, SAP data becomes available where you need it – quickly, reliably and easily.
Whether it’s databases, BI solution, analytics tools and services, cloud data warehouse and storage services – each target environment can be populated with SAP data individually. And thanks to a high degree of automation, within a short amount of time. As a standalone solution, Xtract Universal is independent of any existing ETL or data warehouse solutions and can be integrated very easily and seamlessly into your existing data integration architecture and solutions. Various, integrated SAP source connectors will ensure that you get your SAP data, regardless of where it lives, or in what shape or form it may be in.
Short response times gives us a significant competitive advantage. Xtract IS makes an important contribution to this, because we can integrate decision-relevant data from SAP into our SQL server-based analysis systems quickly and automatically.
ERPConnect is the ideal connection between our two system worlds: Stable, transparent and flexible all at once. With ERPConnect we have been able to make processes faster and more reliable and thus enhance the quality of our services.
Using ERPConnect Services enabled us to break out of the existing SAP and SharePoint data silos and quickly and cost-effectively create an environment in which Microsoft SharePoint could be used as the platform for business process management (BPM) solutions.

Unleash the power
of your SAP data
Xtract Universal is our flexible, standalone solution for your SAP data integration and comes with the same proven SAP data extraction capabilities as our other Xtract products. With the Xtract Universal Designer, you can connect to one or more SAP systems and configure SAP data extracts with only a few mouse clicks - no coding or scripting required. Data preview and logging functionality assist in the development of the various SAP data extracts.
Once the data is extracted from SAP, it can be fed directly into one of over 20 supported target environments, including database systems, cloud storage services, and BI & analytics tools.
Your SAP data extractions can be easily modified to include new data elements or feed into other destinations to accommodate your changing business requirements. No need for expensive and time-consuming ABAP coding cycles.
Xtract Universal supports both mass data replication as well as continuous, incremental SAP data feeds. Multiple SAP data extracts can run concurrently and can be fully automated and monitored. With built-in security, you will have control over who has access to your sensitive SAP data.
The Table CDC (Change Data Capture) component allows you to synchronize and replicate SAP data sets in near real-time. Changes in your SAP system are captured in a timely manner and transferred to a target system such as cloud or DB storage, ensuring reliable data replication and cloud migration without downtime. The component can be seamlessly integrated into your existing Xtract Universal installation.
These components will help you to achieve your goals!
Maximum flexibility in BW data extraction
The BW Cube component implements SAP’s OLAP BAPI interface (MDX) as well as the native BICS interface. It is therefore possible to extract traditional BW objects, such as BW or BEx queries, cubes, and MultiProvider. At the same time, the component supports both the new HANA-based BW objects and the objects of an S/4HANA embedded BW. The BW Cube component supports BEx variables and dimension filtering, thus enabling the extraction of large amounts of data with a packetizing and slicing function.
Directly extract SAP ERP queries from the SAP system
The Query component lets users extract SAP ERP queries right from the SAP system. There is no need to tediously recreate existing queries and their respective business logic outside of SAP, because you can simply continue using them instead.
Incremental SAP data loading: Fast & easy
This component is our champion when it comes to mapping data or changes in your SAP system in near real time and as easily as possible. Data from different data sources is integrated to consolidate all changes in one central system. Unlike a full data load, where all records in a table are transferred from the source to the target database, Table CDC captures only the changes to the data since the last load. This reduces the amount of data that needs to be transferred, resulting in faster and more efficient transfers. This ensures that you always have access to the latest and most up-to-date data, saving resources and time.
By incrementally capturing data changes, CDC also enables faster replication of data between different databases or systems. When only the changed data needs to be transferred, rather than the entire table, data changes can be updated in other systems in near real-time.
Extract SAP tables – fast, flexible, and effortless
Reliable, high-performance extraction of SAP tables (transparent tables, cluster tables, and views) is easier than ever before thanks to the Table component.
This component comes with our custom ABAP package for table extraction but also supports standard SAP function modules. What´s more, joining SAP tables prior to extraction via Open SQL statement is also possible. This replaces the need for manually creating views or SAP queries on the SAP side.
Call BAPIs and RFC function modules with ease
With the BAPI component, it is possible to call BAPIs and RFC function modules. At the same time, the component can be used as both the data source and—depending on the Xtract product—the target (data write-back). Users can extract or populate the BAPI’s import/export and table parameters.
Extract hierarchies from SAP BW – high-performance, flexible, delta-capable
The Hierarchy component makes it possible to extract hierarchies from an SAP BW system. At the same time, this component gives users the option to extract the data in its original parent/child format. The hierarchies can also be broken up, however, and the individual hierarchy levels extracted as column headers in a flat table.
Through Open Hub Services (OHS), SAP provides an extraction method for a range of BW source objects. OHS is a particularly interesting choice when it comes to exporting mass data from SAP BW and provides an integrated delta mechanism when using SAP DTPs. Theobald Software supports the OHS component for BW/4 HANA as well.
Use ABAP reports as a data source
This component makes it possible to use ABAP reports as a data source. This guarantees the extraction and thus continued use of existing, customer-specific ABAP reports or of standard reports provided by SAP. Users can simply adopt existing reports and their respective business logic instead of wasting time to recreate them outside of SAP.
The gold standard for SAP data extraction
These components are the crème de la crème when it comes to extracting data from SAP. With the help of the DeltaQ component, users can extract what are known as SAP DataSources. The main benefit of DataSources is the integrated mechanism for incremental data extraction — a function also employed by SAP BW.
DeltaQ and ODP enable the use of DataSources and thus eliminate the need for an SAP BW. The ODP component is Theobald Software’s response to the new SAP ODP extraction types. This component can also be used to extract SAP DataSources, as well as CDS views, BW/4HANA objects, and other data sources.
