• Key Concepts: 
  A locator value is a unique identifier used by SAP Replication Server (BC-SYB-REP) to identify a row in a replicated table. It is composed of two parts: the source locator and the target locator. The source locator is the unique identifier of the row in the source table, while the target locator is the unique identifier of the row in the target table. 
  
  How to use it: 
  The locator value is used to ensure that data is replicated accurately between source and target tables. When a row is replicated, the source locator and target locator are compared to ensure that the data in both tables is identical. If there is a mismatch, then an error will be generated and the replication process will be stopped. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When replicating data between tables, it is important to ensure that the locator values are correctly set up. This can be done by setting up a unique index on each table that contains the locator values. This will ensure that each row has a unique identifier and that any changes made to one table will be accurately replicated to the other.
