Hi James,

Pl refer <b>2.1.3 Create change message (page nos 19 & 20 )</b> in the following link:

help.sap.com/bp_retailv1470/documentation/EN/Store%20Business%20Offline%20EPOS_EN_DOCU_V147.doc

You schedule the change message periodically to provide the stores with information on changes to master data. For this purpose, call up transaction <b>BD52</b> to maintain the required fields that are to be considered if changes are made. The relevant fields are specified here together with the tables that contain these fields. After the fields have been included in this list and the relevant message types for generating change pointers have been activated in transaction <b>BD50</b>, you can use the change analysis to determine which changes were made in the central R/3 System and to send an appropriate notification (IDoc) to the relevant stores.

To demonstrate this, call up the master data for the article in the master data table and change the article short text by prefixing it with an ‘X’. Once you have changed all of your articles, wait a couple more minutes for the system to be able to generate all the change pointers.

You now trigger the change messages for the stores above. The changes made previously should now be transferred

Hope this helps you.

Hi Sundaram, thanks for your prompt reply. I went into BD50 and created an entry for WPDREB and assigned several fields from table WAKR in BD52 and was able to successfully trigger change documents via WPMU. However, when i tried to add some fields from tabke WAKT (promo description), it did not work! Any ideas why this is occurring?

Hi James,

Pl use <b>Logical Message Type WPDWGR</b> and make it active in TCode BD50 and check now.

Thanks Manikumaar. Looks good. Ii am now able to issue change messages for promotion discounts via WPMU, but it sends it to all sites without accounting for the site groups setup in the promotion? Is there a way to prevent this from happening apart from development? Also, do you know if its possible to setup change pointers for bonus buys (WPDBBY) via BD50/52? Is WPMA the only way to send bonus buys down to POS?

James
