Use

This IMG activity describes the settings you have to make in this system to distribute EH&S data from this system via Application Link Enabling (ALE) to a Supply Chain Management (SCM) system. You can distribute the following EH&S data to an SCM system:

  • Phrase data
  • Hazardous substance data
  • Dangerous goods data

The settings in this system are very similar to those settings that you have to make to distribute phrases between two ERP systems. For more information, see the Implementation Guide (IMG) for Basic Data and Tools under ALE for Phrase Management.

Since the Environment, Health and Safety (EH&S) component does not exist in the SCM system, and the necessary business objects for distribution therefore also do not exist, the Customizing settings you need to make there are more extensive. For more information about these settings, see the IMG in the SCM system.

Activities

Depending on which data you want to distribute, proceed as described in the following IMG activities:

The procedure involves the following steps:

  1. Since standard serialization using the business object cannot be used for distribution to the SCM system, you must adapt the partner profiles for serialization manually under Maintain Partner Profile Manually. Adapt the outbound parameters for the profile in the SCM system for the message types PHRMAS (for phrase data), HAZARDOUSSUBSTANCE (for hazardous substance data), and DANGEROUSGOOD (for dangerous goods data) as follows:
    • Enter 9999 as the packet size.
    • As the output mode choose Collect IDocs.
  2. Create a variant for serialization for the report RSEOUT00 that is restricted to the message types listed (Logical Message field) and sends the maximum number of IDocs.
  3. Schedule a periodic job for this variant. This report ensures that the IDocs are posted in exactly the order in which they were created. This prevents the IDocs being posted in parallel, which can lead to errors.
  4. Start initial distribution as follows.
    • For the initial distribution of phrase data, in the phrase management hit list choose Phrase -> Data Exchange -> ALE According to Distribution Model.
    • For the initial distribution of hazardous substance data, in the Hazardous Substance Management menu choose Hazardous Substance Master -> Send -> Start Sending.
    • For the initial distribution of dangerous goods data, in the Dangerous Goods Management menu choose Tools -> Dangerous Goods Master Distribution -> Start Distribution.
  5. Set up delta distribution as follows if required:
    1. Schedule the report RBDMIDOC so that it is run before the report RSEOUT00. We recommend that you schedule a report that contains both reports in two steps, which are processed in succession.
    2. Activate the change pointers for the message types PHRMAS, HAZARDOUSSUBSTANCE, and DANGEROUSGOOD in one of the following ways:
      3. - Under Activate Change Pointers for Message Types, activate the change pointers for the message types described.
      - In the SAP menu under Tools -> ALE -> ALE Development -> IDoc -> Engineering Change Management -> Define Change-Relevant Fields, specify for the message types described all fields for which you want to activate change pointers.
      - Under Activate Change Pointers - Generally, activate all change pointers.
