• Key Concepts: 
  A control table is a feature of the SAP Landscape Transformation (LT) component that allows users to define and manage the transformation of data between different systems. It is used to define the mapping of source and target fields, as well as the transformation rules that will be applied to the data. The control table also allows users to define the order in which the transformations will be applied. 
  
  How to use it: 
  To use a control table, users must first define the source and target fields that will be used in the transformation. This can be done by selecting the fields from a list of available fields or by manually entering them into the control table. Once the source and target fields have been defined, users can then define the transformation rules that will be applied to the data. These rules can include simple operations such as copying data from one field to another, or more complex operations such as applying mathematical formulas or conditional logic. Finally, users can specify the order in which these transformations will be applied. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When defining transformation rules, it is important to ensure that all source and target fields are correctly mapped and that all transformation rules are valid. It is also important to ensure that all transformations are applied in the correct order, as this can have a significant impact on the accuracy of the results.
