Customizing ALE Outbound Processing

ALE can note the application object contained for every outbound IDoc. Example: for a material master IDoc, the ALE layer creates a link between the material number and the IDoc number. For this, Customizing steps are necessary; see reference below.

In ALE receiver determination, you can define the cases in which a receiver receives or does not receive an IDoc; you can do this for each receiver individually. Example: for the material master record, you can define that a receiver only receives materials of a certain material type.

You have to define the distribution criteria - the Filter Objects, as described below:
