Maintaining structure relationships

Define structure relations between source and target structures If the required structures are not mapped system throws a message If BGR00 or BI000 exists related with header structure If you assign child structure to target structure its header structure details also available to target structure

Field mappings and conversion rules

Assign source fields to target fields Some fields would be filled by system. Changes to these fields might severly affects data transfer Extras Restore default Rule Types
Constants Transfer Prefix
