Detailed Information

The bl command forces the SAP CC system to release the output data files managed by all the rater instances and to trigger the data files bulk loading process.

In an integrated SAP Solution scenario, the data file bulk loading feature enables to convert and transfer the following data into the SAP ERP/FI-CA and SAP CRM systems:

  • Charged items and refill records, converted into billable items (SAP ERP/FI-CA only)
  • Chargeable items, converted into consumption items (SAP ERP/FI-CA only)
  • Business notifications, such as amount or expiration alerts

You can specify a customer management area to restrict the scope of the command. The SAP CC system considers the data that relates to the SAP ERP/FI-CA and SAP CRM system defined in the customer management area.

You use this command for test, demo, or training purposes to manually trigger the processing of data files without waiting for the schedulers to wake-up and automatically process these files.
