How to Write a Routine for 0CALDAY in InfoPackage Selection

This article addresses the requirement of a Routine in InfoPackage selection on 0CALDAY. Using this routine, I need to load only that particular Date Data into InfoCube and other data just ignore.
Live Scenario:
Some times when we are loading data from Source System into BW/BI System, we need some selections in InfoPackage in BW/BI side, this is useful specially when we are doing Full Loads, and actually we need only One Day before data, i.e. SY-DATUM – 1 data only.
Here in this example I took Flat File as my Source System and explained all steps how to do it.
Create Flat File DataSource:
Create one Transactional Flat File DataSource and allow 0CALDAY for selection in InfoPackage, see the below screens.
If you see the above screen, in Fields Tab we can find all fields which are using for extraction and for 0CALDAY, in selection column I selected it as X , this means once you select it, then this Field/InfoObejct will be available in InfoPackage select. You just press F4 in that Selection it will display the values like below…
Apart from this the remaining part is same as normal Flat File DataSource creation only. You just Save & Activate the DataSource.

This is the place where we are going to write the routine using ABAP code and implementing our logic. i.e. just consider only System date – 1 records.
Eg: This article I prepared on 24-06-2011, and my flat file is having data from 2010 year to 2011 (till December), but I need only 23-06-2011 Data.
See the InfoPackage in below screen and also settings for creating a routine.
If you see the above screen, you can find the 0CALDAY in Data Selection tab, this is because of our selection at the time of DataSource creation, for reference see the initial screens and DataSource creation.
In above screen, you can find Type (Variable Change….) if you press F4 it will show the below options.

*$*$ end of routine - insert your code only before this line *-*
endform. "
Code After Change:
Now we will write few lines of ABAP code to fulfill our requirement. See the below code. Once you write the code, check the syntax error, if it is Ok then Save the routine.

See the below Monitor screen, you can find our selection also under Selection in right side and number of records transferred.
Here our Flat file is having only few records will fall under 23-06-2011 date, but it is showing 10681 records, so see the PSA Data, there you can find only related to 23-06-2011 date data.
