New developments in Application Link Enabling
for Release 4.6C are:
Status Monitor for ALE Messages
replaces Manual IDoc Processing
New display options have been added to manual
IDoc processing. ALE audit and IDoc tracing have been integrated. The former
menu function Process IDocs Manually is now called Status Monitor
for ALE Messages.
The status monitor provides the following
functions:
- New display options in the hierarchy
display
You can sort IDocs
in the sending and receiving systems by partner system.
- ALE audit and IDoc tracing in the status
display
Provided that status
confirmation messages (ALE audit information) from the receiving system have
arrived in the sending system, their status is displayed.
With IDoc tracing
you can call up the status of each IDoc synchronously in the partner
system.
- You can print the hierarchy display of the
status monitor.
- You can display application
objects.
Conversion of Logical System names in
Client Copy
The ALE function for copying logical system
names (transaction code BDLS) is now integrated in the client copy. The copied
client should not be used as the productive client.

Characteristics and Check Methods
