  Key Concepts: 
  Structure mapping is a feature of the SAP Application Interface Framework (CA-GTF-AIF) that allows users to map data from one structure to another. It enables users to define the mapping between two structures, such as a source and target structure, and then use the mapping to transfer data from one structure to another. This feature is useful for transforming data from one format to another, or for integrating data from different systems.
  
  How to use it: 
  To use structure mapping, users must first define the source and target structures. This can be done by creating a mapping between the two structures in the SAP Application Interface Framework (CA-GTF-AIF). Once the mapping is defined, users can then use the mapping to transfer data from one structure to another. The data can be transferred either manually or automatically, depending on the user's preference.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using structure mapping, it is important to ensure that the source and target structures are compatible. This means that all of the fields in the source structure must be present in the target structure, and vice versa. Additionally, it is important to ensure that all of the fields in both structures have compatible data types.
