Question:
Hi There,
I have setup the necessary configuration, target system and RFCs on R/3 side of system. Also, I did the necessary steps on APO side of the system to receive the Material & Customer master data via change pointers. The integration models were active.
Given this, I did not see the modified master data coming from R/3 to APO system. Please let me know if I miss any important settings/configuration.
I did check the data for change pointers. Changes were stored in R/3 (standard system) table. When I run CFP1 transaction, I am getting following informational message:
"No master data changes - transfer has not taken place".
Can someone shed light on this process? I appreciate all your time and tips.
Thanks,
VN
Answer:
This happens many a times mostly because ALE change pointer in not updated. Have you checked tables CIF_IMMTMRPA and CIF_IMMAT to find whether or not the material chnages are recorded.
Well, if nothing works then you should go for single step activation of the intg model.
I had this problem mostly for work centres and have not found a satisfactory explianation as to why this happnes. but materials always have worked well for me.
Answer:
Thanks for suggestion. I have check CIF_IMMAT & CIF_IMCUS tables to see the data records. Record exists for changes. I have redone the whole process to activate CIF connection. If I run the programs manually, the data seem to flowing from R/3 to APO system.
I really do not understand what made the system work when I redid the process. I have checked those setting many times before I redid. As you felt, I did not have any explanantion why this worked without leaving a trace.
Thanks for you suggestion.
