Function Module to enhance data source with more than one field for generic delta mechanism

SAP provides a standard functionality to create a general delta. This can only build on one selected field. But in this project scenario we need to incorporate one more field in generic delta. The logic of the function module is based on two fields: ERDAT (creation date) and AEDAT (change date). The module should look for both days because when a new record is created the change date does not get populated in R3.So during delta load we need to take care of all the records which have been created or changed after last init load. For this case we need to follow these following steps: Create a function module through transaction SE37 using proper import export parameters. Some screen shots for the same are attached below.

 Create the data source using this function module and selecting any one of the fields as generic delta, no matter whether it is creation date or change date. In this case I have selected ERDAT (creation date) as generic delta.

Select ERDAT as generic delta

 Then incorporate the logic for two generic deltas in the function module Pseudo code for the function module FUNCTION /DS1/Z_DELTA_MEAS_POINT. *"---------------------------------------------------------------------*"*"Local interface: *" IMPORTING *" VALUE(I_REQUNR) TYPE SRSC_S_IF_SIMPLE-REQUNR *" VALUE(I_DSOURCE) TYPE SRSC_S_IF_SIMPLE-DSOURCE OPTIONAL *" VALUE(I_MAXSIZE) TYPE SBIWA_S_INTERFACE-MAXSIZE OPTIONAL *" VALUE(I_INITFLAG) TYPE SRSC_S_IF_SIMPLE-INITFLAG OPTIONAL *" VALUE(I_READ_ONLY) TYPE SRSC_S_INTERFACE-READONLY OPTIONAL *" TABLES *" I_T_SELECT TYPE SBIWA_T_SELECT OPTIONAL *" I_T_FIELDS TYPE SBIWA_T_FIELDS OPTIONAL *" E_T_DATA STRUCTURE /DS1/ZIMPTT OPTIONAL *" EXCEPTIONS *" NO_MORE_DATA *" ERROR_PASSED_TO_MESS_HANDLER *"---------------------------------------------------------------------* Auxiliary Selection criteria structure DATA: L_S_SELECT TYPE SRSC_S_SELECT, L_S_IMPTT TYPE /DS1/ZIMPTT. * Maximum number of lines for DB table STATICS: S_S_IF TYPE SRSC_S_IF_SIMPLE,
