Hy Guys,
I have 3 questions concerning the change pointers.
1) Is it possible to create change pointers only for specific fields (for instance only track for fields on the customer master data) -> if yes, how is this set-up
2) Can you restrict the sending of an Idoc per segment à if for instance the sales data/view of a customer is created but you only want to send the basic data and company data (how is this done)
3)How can you make sure that idocs are created from change points (sending process) and can this be done automatically (meaning sending the update as soon as someone changed for instance a customer).
Thank you in advance for your help and Regards,
Moh.

Hi,
1) Is it possible to create change pointers only for specific fields (for instance only track for fields on the customer master data
it is possible based on one condition those fields should have document check box.
2) Can you restrict the sending of an Idoc per segment à if for instance the sales data/view of a customer is created but you only want to send the basic data and company data (how is this done)
yes we can do using segment filtering
3)How can you make sure that idocs are created from change points (sending process) and can this be done automatically (meaning sending the update as soon as someone changed for instance a customer.
yes we can do it by doing ALE configuration and change pointers techniques .
Follow these below steps for ALE configuration
Step1: Creation of Logical system u2013 Transaction BD54
Step 2: Assigning client to Logical System u2013 Transaction SCC4
Step 3: Creation of RFC destination u2013 Transaction SM59
Two RFC destination needs to be created u2013 one at the sender with the destination as the receiver, and another at the receiver with the destination as the sender.
Step 4: Port generation u2013 Transaction WE21 - Port is required for the outbound message type and hence port generation is required only at the sender.
Step 5: Creation of partner profile u2013 Transaction WE20
Both outbound and inbound partner profiles need to be created.
Step 5.1: Creation of outbound partner profile.
Step 5.2: Creation of inbound partner profile.
Step 6: Creation of Distribution Model u2013 Transaction BD64 - This needs to be done at the sender

Thank you for your response.
Do you have an example of segment filtering?

Could you explain also the change pointers technic please ?

Hi,
To use change pointer technique to send data, you need to do following settings:
1. BD61 - Activate the change pointers globally .
2. BD50 - Activate the change pointers for individual message types(BD50)
3. BD52 - Activate change pointers for specific fields
after doing settings through these transactions, schedule the report RBDMIDOC in background, it will evaluate the changes periodically and create idocs whenever master data is created or changed
