Summary :
SAP Note details the conventions for naming logical systems relevant to ALE, EDI, and IDoc frameworks, focusing on compatibility and syntax prevention issues. Logical system names must exclude special characters to avoid technical problems in a multilingual environment. Valid characters include the 26 uppercase letters of the alphabet and the first 10 natural numbers, with the first character needing to be a letter. For ALE, the naming convention suggested is CLNT, with "System ID" and "Client" being three-digit identifiers. T90CLNT812 is provided as an example. The SCP_CHARS_ARE_SYNTACTICAL function module is recommended for checking name validity in SAP environments.

Key words :
