Hi,

data mapping means mapping fields with their respective Data type and Length.

Say for example: MATNR(material) field is there, its data type is CHAR and of length 18. so in the other server also you should check for this.

and there may be a suitable field with this data type not exactly with MATNR field, so depending on the data type and length we have to Map the fields though their names are different in 2 systems.

reward if useful

Hi,

You should start with an blank excel sheet. Write the SAP field name, type, length in the left columns and write the other server system's corresponding field name, type, length at the rigth sideof that.

If you don't know the other system's field contact a person who is working on that system.

reward is useful,
