Copy requirement refers to the basic conditions which need to


be met in order for the data transfer to happen.

This generally checks the status of the previous document,


completion status, reference status etc.

Data transfer routine will transfer the data from teh source doc
to the target doc. This is self explanatory.

Hope this helps you

Reward if it helps.

Hi,

Copy requirements means if you want to copy data from one doc to another then
system should meet this requirement. If does not meet the copy requiremnet then data
should not be copied into subsequent doucments.

Data transfer routines means what data you want to transfer to other document. Tht
means if it matches the tranfer requirement then i will transfer only that specific data
only.

Simple..

For copying it should match the requiremnet..

For transfering specific data it should match data transfer reqiremetn..

regards

Sankar

In general,

Copy requirement:

is pre condition to activate the different routines maintained.

once transaction/prog meets this pre condition, then only system will allow to process
further

eg:-1- Header data, - header data of source document should match the header data
of target document- ( not in detail, just an eg), then its allowed to copy the source data

What kind of data has to copy will be controlled via Data Transfer routines

Data transfer routines

one copy requirement is met, then what data & where has to transfer will be written as
coding and included in this routine.

Hi

The example for Copying Requirement is, when you create a


sales order with reference to a quotation or contract - it first
checks for the sold to party. If it doesn't match then it will not
copy. If matches, it copies as per the data transfer routines.

Thanks,

Ravi
