Incorrect transfer of BOM using IDOCs

Question

Hi,
I am trying to transfer BOM using change pointers between 2 ECC system.First I intial loaded all the BOM's from one ECC to another sucessfully.However when the same BOMs are updated in the source ECC they are not correctly reflected in traget ECC.For eg when I delete an item in source ECC it is not deleted in the target ECC , if I update an item in source ECC a new entry is created in the target ECC for the iem even though the same entry already exists in target ECC.
These are cases when BOM's are first initloaded in target ECC , however when the BOM is created it target ECC via change pointers (not intial loading) then every case works fine. As initial loading is essentail please advice me how can I solve this problem
Thanks

Hi Madhu,
I use a Z transaction to Maintain BOM data in source ECC.Now my requirement is to transfer this BOM data to another ECC system(target).So in the source system I have configured chage pointers on BOM fields.I have used to Z msg type which is an extension of the msgtype BOMMAT04.I have scheduled a program RBDMIDOC with the Z mssg type.
Now I have loaded all the existing BOM data in the traget ECC system.But when I try update this existing BOM data in the source ECC it is not correctly updated in target system.
But when I create a new BOM in the source system (which is not there in the target system) it sucessfully transferred by the change pointers and idoc mechanism and there by gets created in the target ECC.
