Question:
Dear experts,
I have a problem in CIF.
I want to creata model in such a way that whenever i add a new material in R/3,material should get automatically transferred to APO withou touching the integeration model.
To achive this i gave the selection criteria as in material-* & mrp type-X0.
I expected that whenever i create a new material & give MRP type as x0 ,material should get automatically transfer to APO but material does not get transfer to apo automatically.
please suggest how to transfer material without touching the integeration model.
2nd problem is can we schedule the incrimental transfer during off peak hours(night time).if yes how?
Thanks in advance

Answer:
Hi,
you have to create an ABAP job with RIMODGEN, and RIMODACT.
RIMODDEL is also a very useful report to delete old integration models.
Also have a look on RSPPMCHG and related CIF configuation.
Best regards
Klaus
Answer:
HI,
For auto transfer of new materials you need to work with BTE,you need to set up data in Table CIFIMODGEN,please check help for the exact tabel.
you can work with the ssame for incremental changes as well.Alternatively if you want to transfer incremental changes at off peak time you can work as our good friend Klaus as discussed.

Answer:
Although this can be done it is strongly recomended that Mstr Data not be sent realtime. Utilization of BTE's in the test environment is okay, but in production it is not.
Any transfer of master data to APO utilizes massive resources of your system. Therefore it is recomended to develop an update scheme which your company can live with in respect to fresh planning data.
It is recomended to run batch jobs in off business hours. Create a batch job which utilizes:
RIMODGEN
RIMODAC2 (activation in batch mode)
If you would like further evaluation of your companies system we can provide a remote login to evaluate your CIF setup and batch processes for daily, weekly, monthly housekeeping. In addition we can evaluate how your CIF was setup for performance related issues.
Hope this helped.

Altough we already used this procedure above, we also have problems with the Delta logic that those jobs ahead use:
We use RIMODGEN, RIMODAC2 and RIMODEL, but we had also to run a RIMODINI, to prevente issues of all new transfers.
Did anyone experienced such situation before?

Hi there,
What was the problem that you experienced with RIMODAC2 ? We have been using this for quite some time and have not experienced any problems. If you could describe your problems in some detail I will start checking for things.
Thanks very much

Hi, MisterWatson
The problem we faced wasn't related to RIMODAC2...Our issue was: we set up the job as described in SAP Note, but the new IM created didn't add materials from the old IM deleted...it was like we create only an IM for the new materials, disregarding the old ones. So, when we use RIMODINI, it was like the IM was builted for the first time, solving this Delta Logic problem.
