Question 7:What is Batch Input?
Do you need to transfer data into the R/3 System? So you can use Batch Input. Batch Input is one of primary ways in which data can be transferred into the R/3 System. Batch Input is used for bulk data transfers and not for near real-time data transfers.
Typical uses of Batch Input include the one-time import of data from legacy system into a newly installed R/3 System. Another typical use is for periodic (hourly, daily, …) transfers of data from external systems or legacy systems that are still in use into R/3, where all enterprise data is consolidated.
