ALE Vs EDI

Hi Experts,
Can anyone please tell me few Technical differences between ALE & EDI.
What i know is
i) EDI uses message types which ALE doesn't and
ii) only the sending & receiving partner types differ like ALE uses Logical Systems(LS) partner.
Please list out few more.
thanks
Dany

Hi,
Check this documentation..
The philosophical difference between EDI and ALE can be pinned as follows: If we send data to an external partner, we generally speak of EDI, while ALE is a mechanism to reliable replicate data between trusting systems to store a redundant copy of the IDoc data. The difference is made clear, when we think of a purchase order that is sent as an IDoc. If we send the purchase order to a supplier then the supplier will store the purchase order as a sales order. However, if we send the purchase order via ALE to another R/3 system, then the receiving system will store the purchase order also as a purchase order.

ALE or EDI ?

Hi Guru's ,
One of our client wants to exchange transactional data(Purchase Order and Invoice related dat only) with one of their client .
Both the parties have SAP system behind their own firewalls.
Business data related to purchase order and Invoice is only to be exchanged .
Now I have few questions :
1. What would be the ideal approach ALE or EDI as both parties have SAP in place?
2. Is it advisable to go for EDI considering only exchange of business data for PO/Invoice ?
3. What is the Extra cost if going for EDI ?
4. If via ALE-Idocs system X sends PO for material ABC (matnr in their SAP system X)...once it reaches system Y . Do the system Y needs to have the same MATNR ? If not than how we usually caters this type of situation ?..
How we take care of master data sent via Idocs in other system ?
Regards ,

Hey, no problem. The ABAP forums have a high turnover, so the best thing to do is simply to edit your original post a bit and bump it to the top. I've moved the post to the correct forums.
I'm no expert, but these are my thoughts.
1. If the parties are both legally seperate entities, then I'd think that ALE is not appropriate. You'd have to establish trust between the systems, and what would you do if another, non-SAP client wants to exchange POs and Invoices?
2. EDI just means exchanging data electronically. ALE is a form of EDI.
3. Don't know.
4. You'll need some kind of conversion routines, I would expect.

Output type - medium ALE and EDI

Hi,
In V/30 while defining output type we are giving medium ALE and EDI also --
What is the requirement of this assignment.?
Regards
Ishikesh

It is the medium , how out put can be sent to customer.
You can specify, for example, that the output is printed or that it is produced and sent by other means, such as fax, electronic mail, or electronic data interchange (EDI).
If we want to send SAP Customer to SAP Customer we have to use - ALE
If we want to send SAP Customer to Non SAP Customer we have to use - EDI

ALE AND EDI

hello,now,i want to send one PO from one cilent to another cilent and in another cilent creat one SALE ODER, A foundation upon which the PO.
how can i use ALE and EDI. thank you!

Hi Yang,
Your Requirement seems to be client-client communication, no communication with the external systems(i.e, Vendor/Customer), In these cases you have to use ALE.

Idocs ale and edi

Hello Experts,
       I am beginner in IDOCS,ALE AND EDI concepts, i would appreciate if some one can forward me material on these concepts, also some sample programs or examples on these.
Thanks.
Raghu

Hi,
ALE Process Steps:
Outbound:
Step 1. Application document is created when transaction is saved.
         2. Message control is invoked.
         3. Messages are processed by system.
         4. Messages are Edited (if desired).
         5. Output (ALE / EDI) is checked
         6. Validate against Message control record from Partner Profile
         7. Application Document is saved.
         8. Entry NAST table is created for every selected output program
              along with Medium & Timing.
         9. Check for Process Immediately .
                 If (yes)
                   Determine Processing Program from TNAPR Table.
                 ELSE
                   Execute RSNASTED Program.
       10. Read Partner Profile to determine Process Code.
       11. Process Code points to the Function Module & Invoked.
       12. IDoc is generated.
       13. Check for ALE Request.
                    if (Yes)
                        Perform Filters, Conversions, Version Changes etc.
                    Else.
                        IDoc is stored in DATABASE.
INBOUND:
Step 1. EDI Subsystem creates an IDoc file from EDI Messages
        2.   Subsystem calls Functional Module                                 EDI_DATA_INCOMING from startRFC program.
         3. Data in Control Record is validate against the Partner                       Profile.
        4. IDoc is generated in Database and syntax check is                      carried out.
        5. IDoc file is deleted once file read.
        6. Event PROCESSSTATE REACHED is triggered in Idoc Object Workflow.
                   7. Check for Process Immediately.
               If NO
                 Execute RBDAPP01 Program
               Else
                  Read Process Code from Partner Profile
                       Process Code Points to Function Module
                 Application Document Posted.

How can we identify idoc is generated from ale or edi

hi friends,
This is interview question asked in tcs,
how can we identify idoc is generated from ALE or EDI.
please give me reply if anybody knows
thanks,
hari priya

Idoc created by ALE is a means of migrating DATA between SAP systems. You configure logical destinations, establish some migrating criteria and the system takes care of getting your data from point A to point B
Where as Idoc created by EDI is described as the interchange of structured data according to agreed message standards between computer systems, by electronic means. Structured data equates to a simple and direct method of presenting the data content of a document. The method of ensuring the correct interpretation of the information by the computer system is defined by the EDI standard."
EDI is a technique used to communicate business transactions between computer systems of different companies and organizations. Note that sometimes the EDI mechanism deployed at a company is often used to interface to other systems within the same organization."

IDocs act as data containers in an ALE scenario. They are just a format of storing application data and then transferred using ALE. Take a look at http://www.sapgenie.com/ale/why_ale.htm and http://www.sapgenie.com/sapgenie/docs/ale_whitepaper.doc for further details on ALE.

IDOC Convertion
/people/kevin.wilson2/blog/2005/12/07/changing-fields-in-an-idoc-segment
EDI
EDI interface is used to link/communicate SAP system to some external system. like .NET application. IDOC's are used for communication purpose.

http://help.sap.com/printdocu/core/Print46c/en/data/pdf/BCSRVEDISC/CAEDISCAP_STC.pdf
ALE/IDOC
ALE interface is mostly used for communication within different R/3 SAP systems. like you have a distributed environment and you need to share data between two SAP systems then you will use ALE/IDOC technique.

What is the difference between ALE and EDI

Hi,
Can any one please explain what is the difference between ALE and EDI ?
Thanks in advance.
Ramana

Hi Ramana
ALE: used to trnasfer IDOC with in the R3distributed system.
EDI: used to transfer IDOC from R3system to nonsap system
IDOCS:
IDOCS are intermediary documents which are like CARRIERS of the data
IDOCs are safe to transfer data, but less volume of data. User is not allowed to access (modify) the data like PSA. IDOCs have 3 parts.
1. Control Record - SOURCE & TARGET details,
EDI
EDI concept in SD: the EDI concept is intended to realize the sales and distribution process completely automatically with the help of electronical documents. These documents are sent from one customer to another, are processed mostly on the background and give a possibility to realize the sales process extremely efficiently.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE
are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to
deliver data to the receiving system.

Whats the dfference between IDOC, ALE and EDI?

whats the dfference between IDOC, ALE and EDI?

Hi,
1)EDI
Electronic Data Interchange
Cross-company exchange of electronic data (for example business documents) between domestic and international business partners who use a variety of hardware, software, and communication services. The data involved is formatted according to predefined standards. In addition to this, SAP ALE technology is available for data exchange within a company.
Refer
http://www.erpgenie.com/sapedi/index.htm
2) ALE
A means of creating and operating distributed applications.
Application Link Enabling (ALE) guarantees a distributed, but integrated, R/3 installation. This involves business-controlled message exchange using consistent data across loosely linked SAP applications.
Applications are integrated using synchronous and asynchronous communication - not by using a central database.
ALE consists of the following layers:
Application services
Distribution services
Communication services
Refer
http://www.sappoint.com/abap/ale.pdf
http://www.sappoint.com/abap/ale2.pdf
Check this link ALE and EDI
http://www.onestopsap.com/interview-Question/edi/
IDocs act as data containers in an ALE scenario. They are just a format of storing application data and then transferred using ALE. Take a look at this for further details on ALE.

Regarding ALE and EDI

can any one explain me what is ALE and EDI and what is difference between two?
plese explain me with example..
thanks in advance.
with regards,
kps moorthy.

The philosophical difference between EDI and ALE can be pinned as follows: If we send data to an external partner, we generally speak of EDI, while ALE is a mechanism to reliable replicate data between trusting systems to store a redundant copy of the IDoc data. The difference is made clear, when we think of a purchase order that is sent as an IDoc. If we send the purchase order to a supplier then the supplier will store the purchase order as a sales order. However, if we send the purchase order via ALE to another R/3 system, then the receiving system will store the purchase order also as a purchase order.
This is an article posted on the site below, You Can easily check it out.
http://expertanswercenter.techtarget.com/eac/knowledgebaseAnswer/0,295199,sid63_gci983331,00.html
1) ALE = Application Link Enable: Initially developed for SAP as an abstract layer to extract master and transactional data to be sent ellectronically to other SAP systems. These days is also being used to send data no non-SAP systems. ALE is not a protocol or anything like that, it's just abstract layer composed by a set of applications which are capable of extracting aplication data on a 1-time basis or periodically, by selection criteria or incrementally by deltas.
2) In contrast, EDI = Electronic data interface, this is a comunication protocol not designed by SAP but it´s an industry standard. Of course most SAP software supports EDI, but EDI it's no software but the specification of the protocol in itself.
ALE(Application Link Enabling) refers to the losely coupled systems whereas the EDI speaks about the Electronic Document Exchange. We need to enable ALE in order to use the EDI feature. ALE builds the bridge and EDI is the means by which the data moves in and out of the SAP system just like vehicles moving over the bridge. IDOC(Intermediate Documents) are the data containers which will be moving in and out of SAP carrying data.
Thus summarising we need to establish ALE between the systems in order to use EDI between them. In case we need to use EDI between SAP and some other target system then we need a EDI subsystem which understands these IDOCs and converts into the format understood by the target system.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE
are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to
deliver data to the receiving system.
