CIF Overview
Core interface (CIF) is the central interface that connects
SAP SCM to the existing SAP ECC system environment.
Data transfer between the ECC and SCM systems is
defined and controlled using the Core Interface (CIF).
CIF is an integrated part of the ERP system (in SAP ECC
6.0) and also is an integrated part of SAP APO, 7.0.
CIF Overview
CIF enables transferring master data from SAP ERP to SAP
APO in one way only, and transferring transactional data in
both ways between ERP and APO
In the Core Interface, the user selects the objects to be
transferred to SCM via the integration models.
Only the planning-required parameters are transferred from
the SAP ERP dataset to SAP SCM.
Technically, the transfer is performed via the queued remote
function calls (qRFC).
Resource views:
SNP and PP/DS require a different view of the capacity.
SNP in time buckets
PP/DS time-continuous capacity

CIF Configuration
To enable this communication, the user needs to configure
the Application Link Enabling (ALE) settings and the
parameters for communication (see Figure 25.1)
The user needs to define the logical systems for both ERP
(NAPCLTN550) and APO (CDFCLNT550) systems
CIF Configuration
CIF Configuration
In the ERP system, the APO logical system has to be
defined as the target system by assigning the system
type and release with transaction code NDV2 and the
queue type with the transaction code CFC1.
The remote function calls (RFC) destination defines the
address of the target system and the access data (user
for the target system, password).
The RFC destination has to have the same name as the
logical system of the target system and that the name is
case sensitive.
