ALE :
ALE is a technology which is used to communicate between the
servers available at different geographical locations.
To send the data and receive the data from one server to another
server, we need a dedicated network which is called as
ALE(Application Link Enabling).
Since IDOC is an SAP tool , only SAP system can understand IDOCs.
IDOCS
All the standard SAP segments will start with letter E1.
All the custom segments must start with the letter Z1.
Control record.
Data record.
Status record.
Steps to create an IDOC:Step1: First create the required segment in WE31 with some
fields.
Step2: Create an IDOC in WE30 by inserting all the above
segments.
Go to WE31.

4.Define Port :
Port specifies the medium of transferring the data from one system to another system
MASTER IDOC:
It is an internal table which consists of data to be sent from SX
system to RX system.
Suppose we are sending 100 materials from SX to RX , then MASTER
IDOC will be generated for each material . i.e. for 100 materials we
get 100 MASTER IDOCs.
COMMUNICATION IDOC:
These are the IDOCs which are derived from MASTER IDOC.
OUTBOUND PROGRAM:
A program which is used to start the process of data transfer
from SX to RX.
With the help of selection screen , MASTER IDOC will be
generated and then COMMINICATION IDOCs will be generated
and will be sent to Receiver system.
MESSAGE TYPE
MESSAGE TYPE:
It specify the type of the application from which IDOCs are being
used .The application may be material master or customer master and
vendor master etc.
Always IDOC type and Message type should be linked with each other.

FILTERING
FILTERING:
Whenever we send the data from source system to receivers system,
by default all the IDocs and segments are received.
Suppose if we want to receive only few IDocs or segments based
on a particular value which is called as a filter value then it is called
as filtering.

Segment Filtering
Segment Filtering:
We need to specify the list of segments as segment filters, so that IDoc will
be generated from all the segments except the segment filters.

TESTING:
Custom IDOCs
Custom IDocs:
Custom IDocs are generally copied from the standard IDoc by adding OR
removing extra segments.
We have two concepts available under custom IDocs.

It is a technique of sending required data i.e. materials or customers or
vendors which are changed during a certain period of time is called change
