Error Stack Handling

This is bound to be a debatable item for any BI solution on the owner of the error stack in BAU mode whether Support or Business users. Before the developer switch the error handling mode in DTP, please consider the fact of 'real' records that supposed to fall in error stack and those supposedly be filtered out before transformation level. Support also has the tendency to switch on the error stack in cases where a lot of data that were supposed to be filtered out causes process chain to fail.

'Real' records that suppose to be monitored in error stack are:

• data related to mapping logic
• data dependent of master data attribute to derive

The above points to the fact that the error stack management should fall into the master data,business user or SME as to correct those records, business logic is mandatory.

Unnecessary data which supposed to be filtered out (usually in start routine) are normally data that is not used from that module. Example records from certain sales organization are not needed to be reported can be filtered out before it went into the transformation level.
