Forwarding Master Data Changes
If you have made changes to the master data of a card or an assigned business partner (directly or via the corresponding card processes), you can forward the relevant changes to the processor online, or using a batch report.
In Customizing, you define which forwarding mode you want to use for each card process at card product level. To find the settings, choose

Online Forwarding
Online forwarding is carried out using the Business Add-In (BAdI) BCA_CARD_CHANGE_ONLN
. In this case, the data is not stored temporarily (clipboard), but forwarded directly to the Business Add-In. You can find the BAdI in Customizing for Account Management. Choose Contract Management

Business Add-Ins (BAdIs)
General BAdIs
Forward Master Data Change to Processor (Online)
. For more information, see the documentation for the BAdI.
Batch Forwarding
The transfer generally takes place during end-of-day processing by means of a batch report. The report reads the master data changes that have not already been forwarded to the processor from the table BCA_CARD_CHG
and forwards them to the BAdI BCA_CARD_CHANGE_OUT
. Then the BAdI transmits the changes to the processor. For more information about the report, see Forwarding Master Data Changes.
Triggering Processes
The following processes and actions result in data changes that possibly have to be forwarded to the processor.
Master data changes to business partners
You make these changes in the business partner-managing system (
SAP Business Partner for Financial Services
or an external application).For more information about forwarding this data, see Taking Over and Forwarding BP Changes.
Master data changes to cards
These include, for example, changes to the limit or the conditions, or the assignment of other business partners (see Changing Cards)
These changes belong to the card process Master Data Change (0007)
.
Other card processes for which - when carried out - you want to forward information
These include, for example, cancellation or renewal of a card.
Specific Forwarding of Information
Depending on the type of information, the changed data is relevant for different processing steps with the processor. Using change categories, the system divides and classifies the individual data so that it can be correctly forwarded to the relevant recipient via the communication interface.
More Information
See the documentation for change categories for an overview of the available change categories and their origin..
