Your cFolders system is on a separate server to the back-end server.
You have set up an RFC connection between cFolders and the back-end system. For more information, see the Customizing under
.Note
If you want to specify transactions that integrate with cFolders use the Activate cFolders Integration with BOM Reporting Transactions Customizing activity.
This integration in the reporting transaction allows you to export the following objects to the cFolders system:
Dynamic order BOMs, knowledge-based BOMs using transaction CSK2
Result-oriented Order BOMs using transaction CSKB
WBS BOMs using transaction CSP2 or CSPB
Material BOMs using transaction CSMB
You can control the BOM levels or headers that you want to transfer.
During export, the system displays the last export date and last BOM change date. This information is useful for a delta export.
SAP provides you with two BAdIs for cFolders to control the cFolders collaboration name and folder structure. Sample implementations are available for each of these BAdIs.
You can select the explosion criteria you want to include in the export to cFolders. For example you can include a fully exploded BOM or can restrict the BOM information to a selected BOM level.
You can choose to include linked MPNs and linked documents with the BOM headers in your export.
