Answer / mohammed muzammil
In both ALE and EDI , we interchange data between two
systems.This interchange of data between the systems is
facilated by the intermediate documents(IDOCs).Both ALE and
EDI make use of IDOCs.
In case of ALE the interchange of data is between two SAP
systems.
Whereas in EDI the data is interchanged between SAP and a
NON-SAP system.
These technologies are used mostly in case of transactional
data.

EDI:
edi is electronic data interchange is exchange the data by
electronically from one system to the another system that
is weather is document or anything.ex:if you send the
purchase or der from the (sender) system that means outbound
system that is recieved to sales order to the inbound
system(Reciever)
so that means that document is changed by electronically
from the outbound system to the inbound system.
ALE:
Application link enabling it provides the link between the
two systems that is the sap or non-sap or third party
systems within the distributed systems only. ex: if u send
the purchase order from the outbound system the inbound
system also recieves the same purchase order . that means
there is no change. so changes not possible in ALE.
