  Key Concepts: 
  Target message is a term used in SAP's Exchange Infrastructure (XI) component. It is a message that is sent from an external system to the XI system, which then processes it and sends it to the target system. The target message contains all the necessary information for the target system to process the message. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use target messages, you must first create a message type in the XI system. This message type will define the structure of the target message and will be used by the XI system to process the message. Once the message type is created, you can then create a target message and send it to the XI system. The XI system will then process the message and send it to the target system. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When creating a target message, make sure that all of the necessary information is included in the message. This includes any data that needs to be processed by the target system, as well as any additional information that may be required for processing. Additionally, make sure that all of the data is formatted correctly so that it can be processed correctly by the target system.
