Change Pointers - Realtime

Former Member — Mon, 18 Dec 2006 19:46:23 GMT

Hello -

My customer would like to send Customer master chnage data to Middle ware in realtime.

I can use to chnage pointers to identify the chnages and create IDOCS using RBDMIDOC .

Is there a way to send it in realtime, instead of running a Batch Job for RBDMIDOC? Like , Once the user chnages the customer, a IDOC need to be posted...

Appricated any ideas. Thank you.

Unlike a transactional data (like PO, Invoice etc), the master data is not triggered immediately. The changes are accumulated and are sent out when the program RBDMIDOC is executed.

So, in this case the best option is to schedule the program at very high frequency (probably every 15 minutes), so that it looks like as if the data is being transferred at real time.

Ravi

Thanks ravi. Is user exit a better way to send in Realtime ? I am thinking of a User Exit in Cutsomer Master and develop code to send Customer Master Data whenever the Customer Data is saved...

Yes, that is definitely a work around as we don't have a solution directly.

However, the challenge might be to identify only those fields which are changed. But from a timing perspective, user exit is the option.
