Set up SAP APO-CIF Integration Model (SAP Library)

Set up SAP APO-CIF Integration Model

Prerequisites

After setting up the Plug-In including the SAP APO Core Interface (APO-CIF or CIF), you need to set up the SAP APO Core Interface integration model to specify which master data, such as plants and products, should be transferred from the SAP R/3 System to the SAP APO System.

In CRM Online, all products are relevant for the SAP APO System. In the SAP R/3 System, however, you need to specify which product is relevant for the SAP APO System. You do this by specifying the relevant products in the integration model of SAP APO Core Interface.
