Function documentationConverting ALE Basis Customizing Data

 

If you want to maintain and test ALE Basis Customizing data in one system landscape and then transport or distribute it to other systems, the consistency of this data must also be checked in the new system landscape. The ALE Basis Customizing Data Conversion tool automatically adjusts this data. It does not transport the ALE Basis Customizing data. Instead, it converts it for the new system landscape using a conversion matrix.

The tool is designed for system administrators who manage a distributed system landscape, in which integrated scenarios are implemented by ALE.

Prerequisites

You have several system landscapes for distributed scenarios, for example, one system landscape for development, one for quality assurance, and one for production, in which each client has a unique logical system name. You want to transport or distribute the ALE Basis Customizing data from one system landscape to another.

Features

The tool comprises two transactions:

  • Specify the conversion matrix.

    A conversion matrix is specified in a system A for a new (or user) system landscape and then transported or distributed to it.

  • Conversion.

    The ALE Basis Customizing data is converted in the system using the conversion matrix.
