Change Pointer RBDMIDOC in SRM Replication

Hi Experts ,
We have ECC 6.04 with SRM7.0. We replicated HR Org Structure from ECC to SRM.
Out of 10000 Employee , only 2000 Employee will sue SRM,  So I wish to replicate only 1500 Employee as initial upload from ECC  by eopy paste from EXCEL in PFAL selection screen. That is okay.
For changes & Delta ,  I will schedule Chnage Pointer RBDMIDOC in SRM.
1) My doubt is exatly what this Change Pointer will replicate  to SRM  (with matching to Filter setting ).... out of below ?
1. Changes to already replicated Employees in SRM
2. New created Employees after initial replication
3. Remainning Employees in initial replication as well  ( i.e. 13000 )?
Is all these 3 cases will replicate to SRM ?
2) In case of change of one field value, will system send only that Value in IDoC or all the date of Employee  again ?
Please suggest
Thanks

Hello sranjna ,
These are the steps for change pointer :
1. BD61 :Activate change pointer generally .
2. BD50 :Activate change pointer for message type.
3. BD21 :Create IDOC type from change pointers.
4.Save the content : create a variant .
5.For automatically process:go to SM36  :Create a job with the program "RBDMIDOC " and the variant you created.

  • Idoc trigerring with change pointer under conditions

    Hello dear experts
    Could you please tell me how can i trigger an outbound idoc using the change pointer ( RBDMIDOC program)?
    I have to generate the ARTMAS outbound idoc ONLY when the material status which is the table MARA is set to a certain value.
    I can manage to trigger the outbound idoc but i did not manage to restrict this triggering according to the value of the material status fields.
    Thanks for all your answers.
    Best Regards.

    I tested using filter on Dist Wh and change pointers - for us, Dist Wh filter for material set on plant.  When we made change to matierial, only if change to plant was made, so plant was included in idoc segment, did the filter work.  If change material description, plant not on idoc segment so was sent .  Looking for alternative...

  • Transaction  for using change pointer technique in ALE -IDOCS

    Hi,
    please let me know the following points.
    1: while using change pointer technique , any change in the sale order(any field ) will trigger IDOC or only specific field change. Or do we have to specify field on which we want to trigger IDOC?
    2:When IDOC gets genrated from change pointer , does it contain complete sales order or only change fields?
    3:Do we have Native format of IDOC in 4.6c ?? XML format??
    Please reply soon.

    Hi,
    For the changes to be carried over by change pointers, the steps followed are,
    If it's gonna be the vendor master for which change pointers needs to be activated,
    - goto SALE transaction ->Modelling and Implementing business processes ->Replication of Modified data -> Activate Change pointers - generally / for message types.... or as said in the earlier post, alternatively BD61/BD50.
    - Schedule a background job for program RBDMDIOC providing the message type(CREMAS) for which the change pointers needs to be processed.
    - Now for any changes made to the vendor via transaction XK02, automatically CREMAS IDocs would get generated with the IDoc carrying the changed fields in it. You would also be able to find the number master and communication IDocs generated from the joblog of the scheduled RBDMIDOC background job.

  • Change pointer perfomance issue(bd22)

    Hi,
    we are using message type HRMD_A to transfer the employee change data using the program RBDMIDOC. we are checking two table BDCP n BDCPS, but because of large number of data we r facing a perfomance issue here. I read in one forum about transaction BD22 which deletes the change pointer from these tables, but is it safe to use? and also what is the obsolete change pointer?
    Thanks in advance for ur inputs.

    Hey,
    It is advisable to reorganize change pointer tables at regular intervals for better performance of programs accessing the BDCP* tables.
    BD22 is a standard report delivered by SAP and it is absolutely safe to run this report. It also has o test run option. You could always run the report in test mode to analyze the data the report had selected for deletion.
    Obsolete change pointers are those which have been created up to the specified date and time. In BD22, if this checkbox is marked, obsolete change pointers will be reorganized regardless of whether they have yet been processed.                                                           
    Processed change pointers are those which have been processed in the specified period (date and time). If this checkbox is marked, the processed change pointers are reorganized.

  • Activate change pointer for a new screen field in MM42/41

    Hi,
      I created a new screen field for Article master(MM41/42/43) under basic data. If there are changes made to this new field how will the system create a corresponding IDOC? does this have something to do with the change pointer thing?
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    Hi Jeffrey,
    first of all got transaction SALE :
    ALE
    -> Modeeling and Implementing
    -> Master Data Distribution
    -> Replication
    -> Activate Change Pointer generally
    Check if Changepointers are generally on.
    Then goto BD50 and activate change pointers fpr message type.
    Finally goto BD52 and check if your field is "watched".
    After that you can generate idocs from BD21.
    Hope it helps.

    I configure the change pointer in SALE..
    BDCP
    BD61

    But when I make changes in vendor master.. its not creating the idoc immediately.. I have to run RBDMIDOC manually.. to create the idoc..
    How to make it create immediately.. ?
    Also if I make a change in Email.. its not creating idoc at all.. !

  • XI IDOC Master Data Synch with Change Pointer (GLMAST)

    Hi,
    I have scenario to create integration between 2 SAP system with XI 7.0 using IDOC - GLMAST. I already acitvate Change Pointer Globally (BD61) and Activate Change Pointer for GLMAST (BD50).
    The problem is whenever changes have done in system 1, 2 IDOC generated, First IDOC  to Logical System PRODUCTION and second IDOC to Logical System SALES.
    In order to seding the IDOC i have scheduled report RBDMIDOC. My question is how i can modify the IDOC target port in stead of send to PRODUCTION and SALES to others port (XI in this case).
    Thank you and Regards
    Fernand

    Hi Prateek
    I already create partner profile and port for XI and add GLMAST. but then the IDOC generated alwasy sent to PRODUCTION and SALES partner profile.
    How to disable that IDOC to send to PRODUCTION and SALES partner profile and only send to XI Profile ?
    Thank you and Regards

  • IDOC to XI (Using Change Pointer) - Error

    Hi all,
    I have 1 scenario to update external GL master data using XI. in this case i already configure the source system (SAP) to sending the IDOC to XI whenever got changes.
    BD61 ---> Activate Change Pointer Globally,
    BD50 ---> Activate Change Pointer for GLMAST Message Type.
    SM59 ---> RFC destination for XI system (PX6CLNT300).
    BD54 ---> Logical System source (ST6CLNT100) and target xi (PX6CLNT300)
    WE20 ---> Partner Profile for XI (PX6CLNT300).
    BD64 ---> Create Distribution Model View.  Sender = ST6CLNT100, Receiver = PX6CLNT300 and Message Type = GLMAST
    The system can generate the IDOC whenever changes happen with running program RBDMIDOC. but the got error with no sender / receiver information in WE05.
    Please advise any step that i have to do ?
    Best Regards
    Fernand

    Hi Matias,
    Thank you for your answer. The problem is because i had used wrong logical system in my distribusion model. The system using not common logical system. nomarly it will use "PX6CLNT100" but in my system the basis people using different logical system that's why the GLMAST IDOC cannot pass throught to XI system.

  • What is change pointer in ALE ?

    Dear Guru,
    1. What is change pointer in ALE and how to configure it ?
           The process of configure please guide me !
    Tanks and Regards,
    Subash.

    Hi,
    Change pointers are R/3 objects that mark changes to SAP master data. Change pointers are managed by mechanisms in a Shared Master Data (SMD) tool and are based on Change Document (CD) objects. CD objects record the changes occurring to master data at a field level. These changes are stored in tables CDHDR (header table) and CDPOS (detail table). ALE configuration provides a link between CD objects and change pointers. Internal mechanisms update tables BDCP and BDCPS, which host the change pointers. While CD objects are application-data-specific, the processing status of change pointers is message-type-specific. Also, the ALE change pointers are activated first at a general level and then at the message-type level.
    ALE provides powerful capabilities to capture changes occurring to master data and to distribute them via the IDOC interface. This feature can be used to keep two or more systems synchronized with respect to master data.
    Steps to configure change Pointers:
    1.Activate the change pointers globally(BD61)
    2.Activate the change pointers for individual message types(BD50)
    3.Schedule the program RBDMIDOC to run periodically on the sending system.
    To Delete Change pointers use transaction BD22 and the standard program is RBDCPCLR
    Remember You can see a check box in Further characteristics tab of the data element ( se11>enter data element>Further characteristics tab) for change document.
    This check box is to bo checked to trigger change pointers.

  • ALE Change pointer setup for master

    Hello everyone,
       When I am extracting data from R/3 some of the changes are not getting extracted.  I want to check if all the proper Message types are turned on or not.  What is the best way to do that?
    I am extracting 0cust_sales.
    thanks

    It is activated there, I checked.  Thats like a master switch which controls change pointers for all message types. 
    But dont I also have to turn on change pointer for each message type ?
    I am refering to customizing in R/3

  • Reg : change pointer mechanism for triggering the IDOC for delivery note

    Hi ,
    I am working on a change pointer mechanism for triggering the IDOC for delivery note and will be using this message class DESADV.
    So SAP has suggested for assigning the message class DESADV with the function module in MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DESADV in BD60 transaction code.
    So I was looking to create this MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DESADV function module in SAP and SAP suggesting that  we should create this MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DESADV function module as same as the function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_MATMAS.
    So do anyone knows that is there any tool has been provided by SAP for creating this function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DESADV in SAP system for triggering the change pointer mechanism for outbound Delivery.
    Thanks !
    Regards,
    Kiran

    Hi,
    When you are change pointer the system itself will take care of sending the changed master data to your partner system and the user will not have any intervention.  If you really wanted to have that then you need to use the change pointers to read the master data which is modified in a custom program and then display that on the screen.  Once the user selects that master data records then trigger an IDOC for creating the idoc for that master data and also flag that master data record as processed in the SAP BDCPS standard table, so that the same record will not be picked. If you wanted to know how the change pointers piece of code is written go through the program RBDMIDOC and you can understand how the change pointers logic is written.
    Thanks,
    Mahesh.

  • Change Pointer problem

    Hi All
    I am working on COND_A idoc. I activated change pointer for this idoc.I added my own zsegment in this via extension of this idoc.I am filling this Zsegment in customer-exit while creation of Idoc .I am not created any zfield for this in any standard table related to pricing.
    Now problem is that while running the Change Pointer Program  RBDMIDOC for COND_a. Its giving Internal error: Program read table idoc_structure,
    command data_select_for_block, argument Z1MATNR_GRP
    any idea to resolve this problem??

  • Auto triggering after creating change pointer

    Hi,
    Has anyone setup their ALE Master Data Distribution to trigger program RBDMIDOC automatically after creating a change pointer?
    Cheers,
    Neil.

    Hi Neil,
    The program RBDMIDOC needs to be scheduled to run in backgroung by creating a variant for Messge Type with the Message Type you are using for your Master Data Distribution, and with the option 'Only for Background Proc.'.
    Also schedule the program RBDCPCLR for periodic execution in Background. All change ptrs generated by the program RBDMIDOC will bedeeted y the system.

  • What is chang pointer

    hi
           what is change pointer
           could u plz explain clearly

    Hi,
    Change pointers are the mechanism through which you can send data to another SAP system or external system if there is a change happening to specific fields of master data.
    Change Pointer (Master Data Distribution)
    Purpose
    If you want to distribute master data changes with the SMD tool (Shared Master Data), changes to the master data objects are flagged for distribution by change pointers ( ® Master Data Distribution).
    The SMD tool is connected to the change document interface. If the master data changes are to be distributed, the application writes a change document. The contents of this are passed to the SMD tool. The tool writes change pointers, reads the application data and creates the master IDoc.
    The master IDoc is then passed to the ALE layer, which sends it to all interested systems.
    The change pointer tables (BDCP und BDCPS) should be as small as possible. Use as few change pointers as possible and delete change pointers which you no longer need.

    save and goback.
    2) Tcode BD50---> check the MATMAS check box save and comeback.
    3) Tcode BD51---> goto IDOC_INPUT_MATMAS01 select the checkbox save and comeback.
    4) Tcode BD52---> give message type : matmas press ok button.
    select all what ever you want and delete remaining fields.
    save & come back.
    5) 5) go to Tcode MM02 select one material and try to change the description and save it
    it will effects the target systems material desciption will also changes
    6) goto Tcode SE38 give program Name is : RBDMIDOC and Execute
    give Message type : MATMAS and Executte
