Network and Communication Security
SD calls the ERP availability check, and this communicates with APO. The relevant component is SD-BF-AC. First, master and planning data are exchanged between APO and ERP, and then planning transactions in APO are called up from ERP. Technically, this proceeds as follows: The APO – ATP dialog is called up from the sales order in dialog mode. The APO view of the ATP (transaction /SAPAPO/AC03) is displayed using the view Availability Overview (transaction CO09).

Data Storage Security
Credit card numbers are stored in the SAP component SD. As this data is particularly sensitive, it requires additional protection and encryption.
For more information on credit card number encryption, see SAP Note 766703.
