How to populate address details in IDOC

Question

HI,
I am creating customer master using OILDEB06 IDOC.
However I dont see the fields like SMTP_ADDR, SORT1, Street 5 etc in the idoc segments.
How do I pass all the address details along with my IDOC.
Do I need to use some BAPI or am I missing something inMapping.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks and regards

These are additional address fields which are part of 'Central Address Management'. Pasted below is the documentation associated with it. Basically, you need to add these separately.
<i>
Additional address fields:
There are additional address fields available due to linking the customer and vendor master and the respective contact persons to central address management. This additional address information is stored in central address management's own tables rather than being kept in the actual master tables (KNA1 for the customer master, LFA1 for the vendor master, KNVK for the contact persons).
A separate transfer run via the ALE interface is needed to transfer this additional address information. This run should be before the transfer run for master data.
See Transfer of address data.
If you use number ranges with internal number assignment when creating new customer and vendor masters, the number which is used to identify the master object in the system must be determined beforehand due to address information and master data being transferred separately.
You can determine the numbers using the following BAPIs:
BAPI_VENDOR_GETINTNUMBER (for the vendor master)
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETINTNUMBER (for the customer master)
BAPI_PARTNEREMPLOYEE_GETINTNUM (for the contact persons)
Master data fields for which there is a counterpart in central address management (such as name, street, or telephone number) continue to be filled in the actual master tables. The formatting for these fields within central address management is different from the original formatting of the fields without the link to central address management. We therefore recommend that you only transfer the data for such fields when transferring central address management address information.</i>
Here is the documentation on transferring address data.

Transfer address data
You can use the DX Workbench (transaction SXDA) to transfer address data.
Create a transfer project using the following object types:
BUS4001 for company and organization addresses (for example, customer address, vendor address, other office address of contact person)
BUS4002 for private addresses (of contact person)
BUS4003 for office addresses (composite work address of contact person).
The address data is entered by the SAVEREPLICA-BAPIs of these three object types.
For more information about these BAPIs and their interfaces, in particular the meaning of the key fields, see "Distributing addresses via ALE" by choosing Basis --> Basis Services/Communication Interface --> Business Address Services in the SAP Library.
You can create example files for the DX Workbench from existing address records in the system (for example, in a customer master record ) with the programs RSDXBUS4001, RSDXBUS4002 and RSDXBUS4003. These example files show the meaning of all fields in the Business Address Services BAPI interfaces.
The programs have the same input parameters as the SAVEREPLICA-BAPIs.</i>
