You can use the comparison group types delivered by SAP or create and edit your own group types.

Procedure

  1. On the Comparison Group tab page, choose a group type.

  2. In the context menu, choose Create group type.

    In the Details section, data for the new group type is displayed.

  3. Choose Edit/Display Group Type, enter a name and a description, and choose an implementing class.

    Note Note

    The assigned implementing class defines the behavior of the group type. The following implementing classes are available:

    • Display

      Completely independent comparison instances can be grouped together, for example, all SAP-CRM related comparison instances, independent of the business object.

    • Sequence

      You can model the distribution of a business object from one system across many systems, for example, business partners from system A to system B to system C, and so on.

      Prerequisites:

      • All comparison instances have the same mapping and key fields.

      • Source type and connection data of the target system in a comparison instance (for example, system A to system B) correspond to the data in the subsequent comparison instance (system B to system C).

    • Distribution

      Using this group type, you can model the distribution of a business object from one system to many target systems, for example, business partners from system A to system B, system A to system C, system A to system D, and so on.

      Prerequisites:

      • All comparison instances have the same source system and source type.

      • The mapping and key fields are identical.

    End of the note.
