What is the standard idoc message type to transfer CATSDB to another system?

we have two systems

1. ECC 6.0 EHP 6

2. HR system

We want to implement CATS and we are implementing it on the HR system( SAP recommends to implement in ECC system - But we cannot as the two systems are on different versions ). Therefore we have a need to transfer CATSDB data from HR system to ECC system via ALE.

I am searching for a standard message type which can send this data. I have looked into help but i could not find any information. Has SAP provided any standard idoc message type?

I can see that someone has created a custom IDOC type to send this data. http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/Transferring+An+IDoc+From+One+Application+Server+To+Anothe...

Before i write my own code i wanted to see if SAP has provided any standard message type?

Thanks

VK,

We had the same issue of needing to transfer CATSDB records from the HR system to ECC system.  We did not find a good solution to that for our purposes.

We ended up producing both the transfer and target tables in the HR system, and then doing an ALE of the CO and FI documents to the ECC system.  For this, SAP offers standard message types, FIDCC2 and CODCMT.
