The IDoc size is defined by the maximum number of segments per IDoc.
Depending on the Customizing settings for the IDoc type in use, both the size and the
number of the generated outbound IDoc will change. Thus, the runtime and the
memory requirements of the ERP internal and external processes may also change.
For technical reasons, the generation of assortment list IDocs requires to allow for a
minimum size of 100 segments per IDoc. It is not possible to generate smaller IDocs of
this type. The other IDoctypes do not require a minimum size. However, it is only
possible to split the individual IDocs up, if the object being processed (such as an
article) has been completely prepared.
The following applies to all IDoc types: the maximum size of one million segments per
IDoc cannot be exceeded.
If you activate this function, the size of outbound IDocs changes according to the
maximum size defined in Customizing.
Effects on Customizing
You make the Customizing settings for this function in Customizing for Sales and

You can also find supplier catalog products without an article master and create article
master records out of them quickly and efficiently.
From a technical perspective, you should experience some performance improvements

function, such as:

activation of the overall function
material search features
general material creation options

a Search Engine parameter, which allows you to specify the Search Engine
Service or the SAP NetWeaver Enterprise Search as your search engine
a Hide Plant Filter and Availability flag, which allows you to disable the display
of the Plant Filter and Availability section in the Enhanced Material Search user
interface in order to support applications where no plant related information is
required
a Simplified Material Creation section, which includes all parameters required

for the material creation method as of SAP enhancement package 2 for SAP
ERP 6.0
a Creation Based on Material parameter, which allows you to create a new

material based on an existing material as a template using:

the Core Master Data Maintenance for Materials transaction (SAP Retail
systems only), or

Enhanced Material Search function. This enables you to find supplier product
information that was imported and managed in PRICAT by using a search engine. You
can allow PRICAT to create a retail article master record using a selected search result
without a material master. This allows the simplified creation of Retail generic articles
with all variants.
Keyword Maintenance User Interface
In SAP retail systems only, you can now choose a Generate Keywords out of
Material Groups button to synchronize keywords assigned to Retail merchandise
categories.
An example implementation has been provided for BAdI W_CS_BADI_032 in

This is an outbound service that mainly pushes the product assignments of a layout
module version from SAP Retail to SOP. It has the same message structure as the
Read MAP Assortment Store Layout Element service. This service is triggered by the
SAP Retail solution via the transaction Send to Space Management using SOA
(WRF_SEND_TO_SOP_SOA).
o
Read MAP Store Layout Element Store Fixture
This service is used to synchronously read a fixture assignment to a layout module

version in SAP Retail, based on values received from an external program such as an

Business Function Retail, Expt Retail Data to PMR

ISR_RETAIL_OUTBOUND_DMF: Retail, Export Retail Data to SAP PMR
(New)
Use
function Retail, Export of Data to Promotion Mgmt (ISR_RETAIL_OUTBOUND_DMF) is
available. With this business function, you can.successfully integrate SAP ERP with
promotion planning functionality in SAP Promotion Management for Retail (PMR).
This enables you to prepare the following master data necessary to support your
promotional planning activities:
o
Article data (including article hierarchies and merchandise category hierarchies)
Site data (including reference site groups)
Article/site data (including sales prices, moving average prices and listing
information)
Vendor data
Sources of supply data (including purchase prices)
Inventory data
Consumption data
Promotion data
The integration allows for the initial transfer of all relevant data objects to SAP PMR, as
well as delta and ad-hoc transfers.
Customizing
You can now configure the outbound connectivity to SAP PMR in Customizing by
choosing Logistics - General -> Merchandise Lifecycle Optimization -> Outbound ->
Maintain Control Parameters.
In addition, you can configure data replication framework settings for the SAP PMR
application in Customizing by choosing Logistics - General -> Merchandise Lifecycle
Optimization -> Outbound -> Data Replication Framework -> Configure Applications.
NOTE: In order to connect to SAP PMR, SAP delivers customizing settings via BC sets which
should not be changed.
For each outbound implementation, a BAdI is available. The BAdI method is called
immediately before the message is sent to the receiving system. The BAdI method gets
all internal data tables which are to be transferred.
The internal data tables are transferred to the receiving system as returned by the BAdI
without further consistency checks.
The BAdIs can be found in Customizing by choosing Logistics - General ->
Merchandise Lifecycle Optimization -> Outbound -> Business Add-Ins.

the invoice verification process, to be allocated to the related RMA objects and the
stores.

Enables you to capture and allocate the variance between planned rebates and actual
rebate amounts to the RMA target inventory and to stores.
Allocation of Unplanned Rebates and Allowances
Provides a mechanism by which to allocate the cost reductions from unplanned rebates
to the RMA target inventory and to stores.

documents of agency business in general. IMG under Logistics - General -> Agency
Business.
RMA Processing of Markdown Reserves and Other Enhancements

it to the target inventory and include it in the RMA calculation.
It supports the ability to have only annual physical inventories reconcile and reset the
planned shrinkage accrual without the cycle counts doing it .
RMA consistency check reports check for errors and inconsistencies in the
(Customizing) settings.
