The tool Converting Data Between Sender and Receiver enables you to convert and map field content from a sender field to a receiver field. In this way, you can map organizational units, units of measurement, or your own, customer-specific field content from one system to another.
This is a general tool used for the definition and maintenance of rules in ALE.
To do this, you must perform the following steps in this order:
1. Create the rule: The rules are defined by segment.
2. Maintain the rule: When you maintain rules, the conversion at the field level is determined according to defined rules.
3. Assign the rule to a message type: The assignment defines when the rule is used. This can be sender-specific, receiver-specific, and message type-specific.

Note: You can use this tool only if you are using the Web Application Server (SAP_BASIS) together with SAP application components.

In this section, the rule is created. You define a rule for mapping the field content for each segment type.
Example
Definition of the rule E1MARRG for the segment type E1MARAM.
