EDI: IDoc ' IDOC No ' is already open in process mode

Hi,
I have a File to IDOC scenario. Everything is fine in PI. But in R/3, (WE05) there is an error. Please suggest what might be the problem.
IDoc: <IDOC No> Status: Application document not posted
EDI: IDoc <IDOC No>' is already open in process mode
Best Regards,
Madan Agrawal

Madan Agrawal,
I wonder whether this issue is related to SAP XI. It seems related to this thread: Re: Inbound Idoc not processed gives an error message
There the problem is related to some ABAP code is SAP R/3.
Kind regards,
Koen

Hi All,
I am getting the error
EDI IDoc (xxxxxx) has not been opened.
When I try to post a new IDoc using the TCode WE19.
If any of you have encountered this error. Please give inputs, how to resolve the same.
Thanks

Hi, Ravi
Thanks for the reply. Yes, I have checked the function module FM:EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_READ.
Actually, the error is reported from this function module.
Based on the settings, I don't know whether we need to check any BASIS settings.
Thanks

Sales Process And EDI Idocs Integration

Hi Friends,,
Good Day To You All !!!!
Please enhance my knowledge with your valuable reply.
I am new to ABAP and would like to learn the following .
1. Sales process - Starting from the Purchase Order Till shipment is created (All TCodes and the definations of the terms used like procurement , scheduled line,handling unit and all those terms coming into picture till the Sales process comes to an end).
2 . Idocs - Transaction Codes,Definations Of Terms like message types , basic types etc, etc,
I need the above information to get a clear picture of the process taking below.
What if an interface exists between SAP and a Non-SAP system(say Siebel system ) .The customer being the Non-SAP system and the Vendor our SAP system . Then the flow of the sales process taking place , with the PO coming from the Non-SAP system through inbound idoc and immediate ATP date going from SAP through the outbound Idoc..the process continues with the creation of delivery then shipment.Each of these triggering their respective idocs .
And the idocs update the corresponding status in Siebel .
I hope you guys would have understood by now , as to why i need the information on Sales Process and Idocs.
Thanks.
With regards,
Learner .

Hello,
         If you want to Set up an Inbound Process for Sales Order Changes, all you have to do is
1. Maintain the Partner Profiles for the Inbound Message Type & Process Code in WE20.
2. The Assignment for Function Module IDOC_INPUT_ORDCHG is already available in WE42 Transaction for the Process Code ORDC. So, you don't have to worry about setting up the Process Code.
3. Take a Sample IDoc of Type ORDCHG Message Type in WE19 and try posting it for the Given Sales Order. If you would like to know more about what it does, Post it using Debugging Mode.
            The above Process is for Sales Order Changes via Inbound IDoc. Below are the Steps for the Outbound Delivery IDoc Trigger.
1. The Process Code DELV already has the Selection Program IDOC_OUTPUT_DELVRY in Transaction WE41. So, you dont have to worry about Setting Up the Process Code.
2. Also, check your field list. Open the IDoc Type DELVRY05 in the Transaction WE60 which is for IDoc Documentation. Check if all the Fields mentioned in your the list that you want to send are available in the Standard IDoc Type. If not, create a Custom Segment in WE31 & Assign the Custom Segment at an appropriate place in the Extended IDoc Type in WE30.
     All the Standard Segments / Fields available in the DELVRY05 IDoc Type will be automatically be populated by the Standard Selection Program IDOC_OUTPUT_DELVRY. However, if you have an IDoc Extension and would like to populate the Custom Segment / Fields, then you'll have to use the Customer Exit EXIT_SAPLV56K_002 in which you can write Code for populating the Custom Segments / Fields.
3. The Most important Thing that we need to take care of is Message Control Configuration while handling the Outbound EDI Scenario.
4. You need to Set up the Output Type for the Delivery Application (V2) for which you need to maintain Condition Records so that the Output Type is proposed automatically when the Delivery is being Saved.
5. In general, the Message Control Configuration is done by the Functional Team. So, ask your Functional Consultant to set up the Message Control Configuration for the Delivery IDoc Trigger.
Hope it was clear enough.
Thanks and Regards,

Interface between sap to non sap using edi idoc

hello abaper's,
                     i have requirment on creating Interface program for downloading files(PO) from Non-sap system to sap system using EDI Idoc techniques.pls give me a good tips for this requirment..
With Regards
MurugeshRajeev

Hello,
        First of all, we'll need to identify as to what we want to do with the PO Data. For example, If we want to Create Sales Order, there is already a Posting Program available with the Name IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS (FM). This is useful for Creating a Sales Order automatically whenever a PO IDoc is received.
Here is the Information for processing Standard IDoc.
1. WE30 - ORDERS05 - IDoc Type
2. WE31 - Segment Definition for the IDoc Type
3. WE81 - Logical Message Types (ORDERS)
4. WE82 - Assigning the Message Type to IDoc Type
5. WE42 - Define Process Code
6. BD51 - If you want to Code a Custom Function Module,
              then after creating it, you need to register the same
              Function Module in this Transaction Code.
7. WE57 - Assign Message Type / IDoc Type / FM group.
8. WE20 - Partner Profiles
9. WE21 - Port Definitions
Hope this information was helpful.
Thanks and Regards,
Venkat Phani Prasad Konduri

IDOC type to send OPEN ITEMS per INVOICE to external system?

Dear EDI Experts,
we want to send OPEN ITEMS of a customer per document via EDI to an XML file.
We checked on idoc type CRESTA01 but this idoc type provides "only" the total OPEN ITEMS of a customer but NOT e.g the invoice document numbers.
Is there any way to generate an IDOC or XML file with the invoice numbers and its OPEN ITEM amounts?
We want to transfer that data to an HH device in order to show customer which invoices yet to be paid.
Any idea?
Many, many thanks
Regards
JW

Hello,
many thanks for the quick answer to my question.
We want ONE credit idoc per one customer showing all OPEN ITEMS with the document number.
That info is sent to the Handheld in order to provide customer exact info which invoice he has not paid yet.
We do not need ONE idoc per ONE document.
But it seems no standard idoc provides such info and we have to call a FM to provide that info to a Z-Segement of CRESTA01. Is that correct?
Port definition XML in we21 for idoc type is understood.
Thanks a lot
Regards
JW

ALE EDI /IDOC Documents needed

Hi All,
Can any body send the ALE ,EDI and IDOC Dcouments with live examples.

Hi
IDOC
Data Creation in Idoc
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.
IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
*Electronic Interchange Document
*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
*IDocs exchange messages
*IDocs are used like classical interface files
IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
FOr testing you can use WE19.
How to create idoc?

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
The two available process for IDOCs are
Outbound Process
Inbound Process
AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extended IDOCs
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
Create Message Type ( WE81)
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

EDI
Electronic Data Interchange
Cross-company exchange of electronic data (for example business documents) between domestic and international business partners who use a variety of hardware, software, and communication services. The data involved is formatted according to predefined standards. In addition to this, SAP ALE technology is available for data exchange within a company.

EDI FLOW :
Here is some thing which helps you and here the purchase order is taken as example too..
Electronic Data Interchange, or EDI, is the electronic exchange of business data. Using a standard format, EDI provides a method of transmitting business data from one computer to another, without the need to re-key data. This electronic link can result in more effective business transactions. With EDI, paper documents such as invoices can be replaced with electronic transmissions, thus time is saved, and the potential for error is minimized. Data can be exchanged at any time. Related business expenses, such as postage, printing, phone calls, and handling, can also be significantly reduced. EDI can aid in the support of manufacturing efforts, such as Just-in-Time and Third Party Warehousing, and financial efforts, such as Electronic Payments.
What parts of the business cycle can be supported by EDI?
Any business documents that are currently exchanged using paper can be converted to an EDI. Standards. Standards include ANSI X12 and XML/EDI are primarily used in the United States, while EDIFACT is used in Europe and Asia.
How does EDI get started?
EDI gets started when one company contacts another expressing interest in trading business documents electronically using Electronic Data Interchange. The two companies must first determine each other's EDI capabilities. If you do not already know your EDI capabilities, we have prepared a questionnaire to help you determine them. If you are already EDI capable, we will coordinate with your technical staff to determine a testing plan. Upon completion of testing the EDI documents, the appropriate business personnel will set a production start date to begin the exchange of EDI business data. If you are not EDI capable, we recommend you first obtain a commitment from your upper management. Your company will need to allocate resources and capital for software, hardware, testing, possible programming, and training.
What is the flow of EDI?
The flow of EDI depends on the sophistication of your systems and your EDI software. If you have internal purchasing/order entry systems, you will need interface programs that can extract and insert data out of and into these systems. EDI programs that interface with your internal systems are preferred over software that requires re-keying of data. Embassy Software specializes in seemless interface between EDI and your back office systems. Using a purchase order as an example of a business document your customer would send that PO electronically (850) to you. It could be sent either through a VAN (Value Added Network) or through an FTP server. You would take that 850 and convert it either into and ODBC database, a flat file or XML document to be imported into your Order System with the use of EDI Software such as PassportXchange.. Using EDI communication software, which is part of the PassportXchange package you would pull down data at set intervals from the VAN or FTP. These documents are then processed through EDI translation software and output to our order entry system. Finally, an EDI document called a functional acknowledgment (997) is sent to your customer.

EDI/IDocs for WMS

Hi all,
I need sample code and processing steps for EDI-IDocs for WMS concept.

Hi,
check this it wil be helpful to you.
Electronic Data Interchange
Cross-company exchange of electronic data (for example business documents) between domestic and international business partners who use a variety of hardware, software, and communication services. The data involved is formatted according to predefined standards. In addition to this, SAP ALE technology is available for data exchange within a company.

EDI FLOW :
Here is some thing which helps you and here the purchase order is taken as example too..
Electronic Data Interchange, or EDI, is the electronic exchange of business data. Using a standard format, EDI provides a method of transmitting business data from one computer to another, without the need to re-key data. This electronic link can result in more effective business transactions. With EDI, paper documents such as invoices can be replaced with electronic transmissions, thus time is saved, and the potential for error is minimized. Data can be exchanged at any time. Related business expenses, such as postage, printing, phone calls, and handling, can also be significantly reduced. EDI can aid in the support of manufacturing efforts, such as Just-in-Time and Third Party Warehousing, and financial efforts, such as Electronic Payments.
What parts of the business cycle can be supported by EDI?
Any business documents that are currently exchanged using paper can be converted to an EDI. Standards. Standards include ANSI X12 and XML/EDI are primarily used in the United States, while EDIFACT is used in Europe and Asia.
How does EDI get started?
EDI gets started when one company contacts another expressing interest in trading business documents electronically using Electronic Data Interchange. The two companies must first determine each other's EDI capabilities. If you do not already know your EDI capabilities, we have prepared a questionnaire to help you determine them. If you are already EDI capable, we will coordinate with your technical staff to determine a testing plan. Upon completion of testing the EDI documents, the appropriate business personnel will set a production start date to begin the exchange of EDI business data. If you are not EDI capable, we recommend you first obtain a commitment from your upper management. Your company will need to allocate resources and capital for software, hardware, testing, possible programming, and training.
What is the flow of EDI?
The flow of EDI depends on the sophistication of your systems and your EDI software. If you have internal purchasing/order entry systems, you will need interface programs that can extract and insert data out of and into these systems. EDI programs that interface with your internal systems are preferred over software that requires re-keying of data. Embassy Software specializes in seemless interface between EDI and your back office systems. Using a purchase order as an example of a business document your customer would send that PO electronically (850) to you. It could be sent either through a VAN (Value Added Network) or through an FTP server. You would take that 850 and convert it either into and ODBC database, a flat file or XML document to be imported into your Order System with the use of EDI Software such as PassportXchange.. Using EDI communication software, which is part of the PassportXchange package you would pull down data at set intervals from the VAN or FTP. These documents are then processed through EDI translation software and output to our order entry system. Finally, an EDI document called a functional acknowledgment (997) is sent to your customer.

EDI IDOC generation for interface with Vendor software help needed.

EDI IDOC help needed.
We are NOT an EDI shop, but have a project to output data to Sales Force.com
Sales Force requests IDOC output - eg. 810 Outbound Invoice.
We will need to do a historical load of Orders/Quotes/Invoices from the past 2 years.
Is there a function module or series of FM's that are used to generate the E2EDKxxxxx type segments?
I have been testing using the IDOC_OUTPUT_INVOIC and IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDRSP FM's, but they generate segments begining with E1EDKxxxxx.
Basicall we have a report program that the user enteres in the date range of Order/Quotes/Invoices they wish to extract, the the program needs to output a flat file (.txt) on the server which is then picked up by Sales Force.com.
Also, is there a way to have in the Partner Profile a generic Partner under the "Type KU" that can be used for all orders/invoices so I don't have to create a KU Partner Type for each and every Sold-To customer we have?
I am very new to EDI so any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.
Scott.

Hi Scott,
We will need to do a historical load of Orders/Quotes/Invoices from the past 2 years.
I know it's very tempting to use an interface for such loads if you anyhow have to create one. However, often the volume alone speaks against interface usage for such scenarios.
Is there a function module or series of FM's that are used to generate the E2EDKxxxxx type segments? I have been testing using the IDOC_OUTPUT_INVOIC and IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDRSP FM's, but they generate segments begining with E1EDKxxxxx.
Well, the E2* segments basically reflect the external name of the IDoc segment, whereas the function modules you're referring to basically just create an internal version of the IDoc. Once the IDoc framework then passes the IDocs to the partner, the segment names usually (depends on how the IDocs are passed on) get converted to their external name. If there are multiple versions of a segment, then the version number will be appended to the segment name.
Note that IDoc segment definitions are only partially stored in the data dictionary. If you want to see all versions you should always use transaction WE31 to look at segments. There you can also see for example for E1EDK01 the several versions and when you then use in SE37 function module SEGMENT_EXTERNAL_NAME_GET you will see what SAP produces as the external name for segment E1EDK01. This function module is basically the one that handles the segment name translations.
Ignore the comments for subsystem, this is basically an option in SAP to possibly trigger further external tools (e.g. mapping etc.) for handling the outbound IDocs.
Again, the funny thing is that via the WE30 transaction, if i put in INVOIC02 as the Obj. name and see the segments, i can see that E2EDK01 there is a version 005, but if i go to SE11 and put in E2EDK01005 structure line and i get a "not found". We just have up to E2EDK01002.
In the old days SAP used to generate E1, E2 and E3* structures in the data dictionary (SE11). The E1* structure reflected the character type representation of an IDoc segment, whereas the other two (definition and documentation) contained actual references to data elements (e.g. if you used a quantity field). However, in newer releases those dictionary structures (E2* & E3*) are no longer generated, because they're superfluous (meta data defined via WE31 is sufficient).
Cheers, harald

SAP R/3 Mapping with EDI IDOC's 846 and 852 (Outbound)

Hi:
How are the following EDI IDOC Types mapped in SAP - R/3?
1. Inventory Inquiry / Advice (846)
2. Product Activity Data (852)
What is the basic type, message type, idoc type that has to be used
in both the cases - outbound based ones.
This is a consumer products industry and not a retail industry. This
is a hypothetical scenario where the end customer would like to see
the price and the stock from all the plants and then place an order
(846); and also see what is being planned in aparticaular plant for
a planning period (852). The cycle countings are carried out based
on the type of product in question and SAP-R/3 has been set up for
this. What is the trigger point for the enitre activitiy to take
place. Any valuable suggestions or guidelines are most welcome.
Regards
Rohit

Find status of a sales order created using EDI IDOC

Hello everyone,
   I have IDOC created for incoming sales order using FM 'IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS'.
When a sales order is created manually iva VA01, it prevents the order from being saved when a specific error is hit unless user resolved it first.   However, when the order is created via EDI IDOC, the error is hit and it cannot be created. In the sapmv45a program, i will to say that if it is an EDI IDoc transacion for the order, let it bypass the error and create the order.
     Can anyone pls tell me how to check the status of a sales order being created using EDI IDOC ?
Sy-batch does not work.
Thank you in advance.
Joyce

Joyce,
If you pay attention the code in FM it is exporting value of da_edi_sign to memory id "SD_EDI_ACTIVE" stored in constant "da_memory_id". ('CONSTANTS: da_memory_id(13) VALUE 'SD_EDI_ACTIVE'.)
In your program you have two you have two options.
1. Declare a constant as in the FM and use that as mentioned below:
CONSTANTS: da_memory_id(13) VALUE 'SD_EDI_ACTIVE'.
IMPORT v_memid FROM MEMORY ID da_memory_id.
2. Hardcode memory id as below:
IMPORT v_memid FROM MEMORY ID 'SD_EDI_ACTIVE'.
Hope this resolves your problem.

I/B EDI IDoC for Service Ent Sheet & Goods Receipt against PO SAP ECC 6.04

Hi EDI Experts ,
We Have ECC 6.04. We are planning to have inbound EDI IDoC for Goods Receipt against PO & Service Ent Sheet .
1.For Goods Receipt against PO I have identified below Message type:
MBGMCR / MBGMCR03 - Used in SRM Confirmation IDOC from SRM & SUS
WMMBXY/ WMMBID02- Messages Types - I remember used in last Project
Can anyone please suggest/confirm me , exactly which is most used and most suitable ?
2. For Service Ent Sheet inbound posting I unable to find any IDoC and never heard same.
( I learnet that from SUS Service entry posted in ECC by eSOA with PI ( XML).... or in other cases it may created using some BAPi)
What is exact fact ? Is there Service entry sheet can not pe posted by IDOC ? If yes, how ? if now, what is the best options ?
Thanks in advance.

Hi ,
In MM-SUS deployment,
Until SRM 7.0 with ECC 6.04, Service procurement using MM-SRV & SAP SUS, was not provided. But, as of “SRM 7.0, only in combination with ECC 6.04 ”, SAP standardized the “Service Procurement” scenario along with Material Procurement for MM-SUS deployment and so fully supported for Material & Services .
Please refer the Note 868192 & 1269540 and Technical scenario matrix ( criterion 18) document for details.
So for there is Enterprise Services ( eSOA) and not IDOC. Please see below messages for Services.

How to Send Purchase Order through EDI/IDOC.

Hi Experts,
We are using SAP ECC.5. And intending to send the Purchase Order to Supplier through EDI/IDOC and Receive the Inbound Acknowledgement.
Appreciate, if you could help me, the required Configuration details for outbound and inbound (PO & Acknowledgement).
Reg
Kumar

Hi Kiran
Many thanks for the response. It is true that by changing the message type to EDI can generate idoc. What is not clear is any other config we need to do interms of Message generation, Resubmitting failed IDOC etc..
Out requirement is that we would generate the IDOC for New and changed docs and send to external EDI converter.
Inbound, receive the IDoc and post the acknowledgement.
Appreciate, if you could forward any document link which can explain the details.

EDI IDoc Segment Filtering Transactions

Hi All,
Is there any transaction for EDI IDoc segment filtering where partner profile is set up with partner type as 'customer' or 'vendor' (and not partner type as 'logical system' where ALE IDoc segment filtering transactions BD59 & BD64 can be used) ?
Thanks !

Thanks Lokeshwari.
Actually, a perticular field in an IDoc segment needs to be filtered. e.g. I dont want to send idocs with a perticular item category for ORDERS05 IDoc.
Is there any transaction to fulfill the same ?

EDI: IDoc ' IDOC No ' is already open in process mode
