BDC Management

Batch input is a proven technique for transferring mass data from external systems to the SAP system.

The batch input sessions used contain one or several transaction calls including transaction data. AE can read, process and monitor these sessions until they end. AE can also directly call transactions whose data has been defined in an AE job (call transaction).
