There are three methods in ALE distribution.

1.Push original - we have to trigger this (Eg. BD10)

2.Change pointer - automatically triggered whenever change in master data

3.Pull or Fetch method. - here we have to send request for particular material (BD11).

Other than finance, PP and HR we go for Message control.

In message control all the Business rules are checked and output is proposed.

Check the transaction VK01.

We can create our own function module based on our requirement and link it through the process code (WE41)

If u want to add new fields or segments we can extend the idoc using transaction

WE30 and then we have to link the extended idoc in transaction WE82.
