Use

You can define the packet types that can be used in the distribution of ALE distribution units. The following settings are necessary for this:

  • Object types for packet type

    You define which object types are allowed in each packet type. You can filter out objects that have been sent or posted by using the distribution status. You can allow or disallow corrections in the source and/or target system. Predecessor determination allows you to serialize several product states.

  • Automatic Business Transaction Control (Outbound)

    You define for each packet type how it is to be posted in the target system: automatically or manually.

  • Automatic Business Transaction Control (Inbound)

    You define for each packet type how it is to be sent in the source system: automatically or manually.

  • Confirmation to sender

    In the target system you determine the status changes that are to be reported to the source system.

    You should schedule regular confirmations

Standard settings

SAP delivers the following settings in the standard system:

  • No comparison with the replication table
  • No corrections allowed in source or target system
  • No predecessor determination
  • No automatic business transaction control
  • Confirmations always with statuses Rejected and Posted

Activities

To define packet types, proceed as follows:

  1. Choose Display/Change.
  2. If you want to create new packet types, choose New Entries.
  3. Enter the following data:
    1. Key
    2. Description
    3. Distribution Status
      4. With the distribution status you determine the scope in which objects are to be included in a distribution.
      - Object Distributed: Objects that are already distributed, but are not yet posted, are not included in the distribution.
      - Object Posted in Target System: Objects that are already distributed and posted in the target system are not included in the distribution.
      - No Comparison: The replication table is ignored in distribution; All object types are distributed.
    4. Indicator Corrections in Source System
    5. Indicator Corrections in Target System
    6. Indicator Determine Predecessor
      7. This indicator controls how the predecessor packet type is to be determined.

      - No automatic determination (no predecessor determination)
      - Determination using the same packet type
      - Determination using the same imported objects
