Hi Joe
You can make this as described in note 300300:
- define the system-/user-status in source system, transcation bwst. The BW status objects are called ntf... by default
- generate the DataSource for MasterData of InfoObjects 0STATUSNTX.._TEXT
- add the Fields BWSTNTF.. to DataSource 0NOTIFCATN_ATTR (this DataSource is part of the 'Quality Management' Application Component but seems to deliver service notification MasterData as well)
- check the extended DataSource (rsa3) and replicate it to BW
So generally you add the status to the master data (InfoObject) and not transaction data.
Hope this helps.
