Key Concepts: A data message is a type of message used in the SAP Application Interface Framework (CA-GTF-AIF). It is used to transfer data between different systems, such as between an ERP system and a CRM system. Data messages are sent in XML format and contain both the data and the metadata associated with it. How to use it: Data messages can be used to transfer data between different systems. To do this, the sender must create an XML document containing the data and metadata, and then send it to the receiver. The receiver then processes the data message and stores the data in its own system. Tips & Tricks: When creating a data message, make sure that all of the necessary metadata is included. This will ensure that the receiver can properly process the data message. Additionally, make sure that all of the data is formatted correctly so that it can be easily read by the receiver. Related Information: Data messages are just one type of message used in SAP Application Interface Framework (CA-GTF-AIF). Other types of messages include control messages, which are used to control the flow of data between systems, and error messages, which are used to report errors in processing.
