  • Key Concepts: 
    An automatic feeder table is a feature of the SAP Manufacturing Execution (MFG-ME) component. It is used to automatically feed data from one table to another, eliminating the need for manual data entry. This feature helps streamline processes and reduce errors associated with manual data entry. 
    
    How to use it: 
    To use the automatic feeder table, you must first define the source and target tables. The source table is the one that contains the data that will be automatically fed into the target table. Once the source and target tables are defined, you can set up rules for how the data should be transferred. For example, you can specify which fields should be transferred and how they should be mapped to the target table. Once these rules are set up, the automatic feeder table will take care of transferring the data from the source to the target table. 
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting up an automatic feeder table, it is important to ensure that all of the fields in the source and target tables are properly mapped. This will help ensure that all of the data is transferred correctly and accurately. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update your rules for transferring data as your business processes change over time.
