Sending Master Data DirectlyLocate this document in the navigation structure

Use

In this procedure, master data objects are sent immediately. The entire data in the master data objects is sent. The function is triggered via a report (such as RBDSEMAT for the material master).

In ALE Administration of master data distribution, you will find all the objects for which the "Send directly" function is already implemented.

Procedure

Now create a program for your master data object. In the program, define parameters to select objects to be sent and a parameter for the logical system.

Then implement the following steps in the program:

  1. Create an IDoc for each master data object to be sent. Enter all the data of the master data object into the IDoc. In each segment, the first field MSGFN should contain the value 005.

  2. Pass the IDoc to the ALE layer by calling function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE.

  3. Execute the COMMIT WORK command and call the DEQUEUE_ALL function module. To improve performance, this step should only be carried out after several IDocs have been created.
