Outlining the Setup for Replication into an ABAP System

Objective

After completing this lesson, you will be able to understand the setup of ABAP-to-ABAP replication.

Set Up Data Replication for ABAP-to-ABAP Systems

To set up data replication for ABAP-to-ABAP systems, proceed as follows:

  1. Start the transaction LTRC.

  2. Specify the configuration name.

  3. Specify the source system RFC destination.

  4. Specify the target system RFC destination.

  5. Specify the transfer settings as required.

To start replication for a table, enter transaction LTRC, and execute the Data Provisioning function.

Specify the table name that you want to replicate, as well as the transfer option, and execute it.

Perform ABAP-to-ABAP System Replication

You want to replicate a table from one ABAP system to another. You need to know how to create a new configuration. In this exercise, create a new configuration to replicate a table from the T41 system to the CIA system. Both systems are based on ABAP.
