What is 'incremental data transfer' in SAP SCM-APO-INT - Interfaces?

incremental data transfer - Overview

• Component: SCM-APO-INT

• Component Name: Interfaces

• Description: A form of initial data transfer via Core Interface CIF used to increase system performance while transferring master data objects, such as product master data, location product master data, and production data structures PDS, from an ERP system to an SCM system. It enables the system to transfer all correct master data objects in a CIF queue so that the user only has to retransfer master data objects with errors.

  Key Concepts: 
  Incremental data transfer is a process used in SAP SCM-APO-INT Interfaces to transfer only the data that has changed since the last transfer. This process helps to reduce the amount of data that needs to be transferred, which can help to improve the speed and efficiency of the transfer. 
  
  How to use it: 
  In order to use incremental data transfer, you must first set up a baseline for the data that you want to transfer. This baseline will be used as a reference point for determining which data has changed since the last transfer. Once the baseline is set up, you can then configure the incremental data transfer process to only transfer the data that has changed since the last transfer. 
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When setting up your baseline for incremental data transfer, it is important to ensure that all of the relevant data is included in the baseline. This will help to ensure that all of the necessary changes are captured and transferred during each incremental data transfer. Additionally, it is important to regularly review and update your baseline in order to ensure that all of the necessary changes are captured and transferred.
