LOGISTIC COCKPIT - WHEN YOU NEED MORE - First Option: Enhance It!
SAP BW Business Content: valued, but not a wishing well...
As we can read from help.sap.com, SAP Business Information Warehouse provides pre-configured objects under the collective term "Business Content" (BC). These objects accelerate the implementation of SAP BW, since they deliver ready solutions, meeting the requirements for business information.As regards our analysis area (BW extraction tools), it’s evident that, coming out from SAP official definition and just working for some period on the system, BC (and its datasources) mean ready to run build-in extractors, a good (and growing) business coverage within SAP environments (BW API Service is available as plug-in for all R/3 systems, BW itself and therefore also in APO, mySAP ERP components and industry solutions), transactional and master data involved, less implementation efforts and costs and sophisticated delta handling.
And you will say "This is a dreamland !".
I’m sorry, my dear friend, I hate to be a killjoy, but, wake up and welcome in the reality...

How-to Enhance LO-Cockpit DataSources with Delta-relevant Fields
Summary
We need to add a user-defined field to a LO-Cockpit DataSource. This field can change with no other field of the standard extract structure changing at the same time. We want this change to be registered by the DataSource's delta queue.
In the following example we will see how to add a custom field for the sales rep specified in a sales document. We will assume that the sales rep is modeled as a line-item partner function, and we will therefore enhance the DataSource 2LIS_11_VDITM (Sales Document Item Data).
