Running an extraction

Note: The Use on-premise data extractor option is only available for process apps created from:

• an SAP source system app template.
• a Custom process app template.
• an Event log app template.

You can select the Use on-premise data extrator option to load data from your SAP system. The UiPath on-premises data extractor is a standalone application that can be installed on your local machine. It will connect to your SAP system or SQL Server and extract data from it.

1. In the Connection step, select the data source created with the UiPath on-premises data extractor, and select Next.
2. In the Extraction settings, configure the Date range for the extraction, then select Next. The Extraction tables page opens, displaying the list of tables that are defined in the app template, which are extracted by default.
3. Configure the Extraction tables and, optionally, add new tables. Check out Mapping input tables.
4. Select Next.
5. Configure the Extraction fields and, optionally, add new fields. Check out Mapping input fields.
6. Select Next.

Refer to Selecting the data source for more information.
