Hello Nihar,

First of all i should tell Transfer rule and update rule is a concept of SAP BW 3.x

so in 3.x our dataflow is as below mentioned .

Source --> datasource --> Infosource --> Data Target(ODS or CUBE).

In a simple ways:

1. Transfer rules is simply defined or applied when we map the fields of datasource to the fields of Infosource.

2.Update rules is applied or used when we map the fields(or infoobjects) of infosource to the subsequent data target.(ODS/CUBE/ INFOOBJECT)

Both the rules is used only to map fileds with some specific advantage of transform properties of infoobjects.

Note : But in BI 7.0 onwards we dont have these concepts of tranfer rules and update rules.

We have only transformations.
