System Type and Release

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am in a bit confusion about 'System Type' and 'Release' while configuring CIF.

kindly go through and explain me.

In the R/3 system the logical system of the APO has to be defined as the target system by assigning the system type and release with the transaction NDV2 and the queue type with the transaction CFC1.

What does it mean by 'System type'?

What is 'Release' means?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

System type means for which system you are maintaining whether it is for APO or BASIS.

for CIF it should be SAP_APO (SAP Advanced Planner and Optimizer).

and release means which release of APO you are using i.e 5.0 or 5.1 or 4.1 .you can seelct this from F4 help.

You can also refer note 1223963.

Hi,

The usual naming convention for the System name is 'System'CLNT'client number'. For example your APO production system is PRD and the client is 100, then the system name should be PRDCLNT100.
