Which option to choose:idoc user exit or copy standard idoc?

Hi gurus,
We are using idoc technolody to implement the interface between R3 and 3rd party system.
Most of idocs are inbound processing, and it seems standard idoc can't meet our all requirements.
So we are considering the option:i choose doc user exit or create new idoc by copying standard idoc.
Which way do you like better?What are the advantages and disadvantages of them?
Any help will be appreciated.
BTW, our customer will upgrade their R3 4.7 system to ECC6.0 after this project the next year.

Hi,
By making changes in the User-Exits, if you can achieve what you are looking for then I would recommend to use user-exits. SAP programs are not bug free and SAP keeps on updating them by releasing hundreds of notes every day. If customer is upgrading to new version in near future then using standard programs are the best option.
Cheers,

  • Any of the Benefits idoc user exit

    Hi All,
    I am looking for the any benefit idoc user exit. We neeed to extend BENEFIT3 idoc, i was able to extend the idoc but dont see any user exit where i can def. my def segment.
    Not sure how it is working in other case.
    Does anybody has any idea as of how to proceed on this.
    Appreciate your help  in advance.
    Thank you,

    This thread is vague and does not specify what the ultimate solution was.  We were trying to accomplish the same thing - an enhancement to BENEFIT3 IDoc, but were unable to find a suitable user exit.  So we put in an OSS note and received the following response:
    "...currently there is no user exit/Badi in SAP Benefits Administration
    to enhance IDoc BENEFIT3. Such functionality is indeed missing in the
    system, which means that you will need to submit a development
    request to enhance the system in this respect in a future release."
    We are going to try to resolve our problem with a custom infotype.

  • User Exit to Override ASN IDOC field

    Hello Experts,
    I am looking for an user exit to override ASN IDOC field while sending IDOC to third party tool. Below is the scenario
    Once we do the PGI on outbound delivery SPED output creates ASN and it triggers ZASN output. We use basic type DELVRY03 to send IDOC to third party tool. Now before sending ASN to third party tool we would want to send them a flag so based on that they perform auto receipt process in their system.
    I have selected Export Indicator (EXPKZ) field from IDOC since this hasn't been mapped with third party tool. Once we get an user exit to update the Auto Receipt flag in the Export Indicator field in IDOC we will map it in XI/PI so that it will go to third party tool for further processing.
    I have a logic to identify the ASN which needs to set auto flag but I am struggling where and how to put that logic, what user exit suffice the requirement?
    Thanks in Advance
    Jay

    If my understanding correct Before you send inbound delivery information to third party system you will send one Flag to Third party system to do goods receipt.I have one question if system failed to create /user cancelled Outbound delivery then how will you stop auto goods receipt in Third party system ?.Also After goods receipt GR messages failed in sap as there is no ASN created in system.
    If you want to send the flag before ASN creation then at Speed message level you split the Idoc message into two parts one for flag the message two third party system and another one to create Inbound delivery.

  • Inbound IDOC user exits

    Re: IDOC User Exits
    Posted: Aug 1, 2006 10:43 AM        Reply      E-mail this post 
    Hi
    I have a basic doubt. We can modify or add new segments and change existing values to segments only for outbound idoc.
    I have a requirement where a particular field in a segment would be empty for an inbound idoc. Is it possible to change inbound idoc values after the idoc is created and before it gets posted.
    Please let me know,
    Regards,

    Updating IDoc data in segments.
    STEP 1 - Open document to edit

                OTHERS                        = 5.
    STEP 2 - Loop at itab_edidd and change data
    LOOP AT itab_edidd WHERE segnam = 'E1EDKA1'.
      e1edka1 = itab_edidd-sdata.
      IF e1edka1-parvw = 'LF'.

        itab_edidd-sdata = e1edka1.
        MODIFY itab_edidd.
        EXIT.

  • Doubt in Idoc user exit..............

    Hi All,
               i have written the user exit for Sales Order subscreen tab called <b>additional data2</b> , this tab is provided by sap for developer can write their own user exit coding.
               my doubt is whenever PO comes as an <b>Inbound IDOC i need to pass the value from</b> <b>segment to my user exit fields</b>.
               <b>where can i find the inbound idoc user exit for SO .</b>
                Thanks in advance,

    Look at enhancement VEDA0001. It has got quite a few user exits you can use. You will also need to enhance the IDOC for the additional fields you have added on your screen.

  • Inbound IDoc user exit

    I am attempting to write my first user exit for an Inbound IDoc. Outbound seems easy by comparison. I am going to add a date to VBAK-MAHDT from and extended ORDERS03 segment. My extended segment is pretty much like E1EDK03.
      I'm working with enhancement VEDA0001. For include ZXVEDU03 of component EXIT_SAPLVEDA_001 I have this so far:
    DATA:
      w_z1edk03 LIKE z1edk03,
      w_vbak LIKE vbak.
    CASE segment-segnam.
      WHEN 'Z1EDK03'.
        IF segment-sdata(3) = 'Z01'.
          w_z1edk03 = segment-sdata.
          MOVE dxvbak TO w_vbak.
          w_vbak-mahdt = w_z1edk03-datum.
          MOVE w_vbak TO dxvbak.
        ENDIF.
      WHEN OTHERS.
    ENDCASE.
      Am I on the right track? Isn't there something else that I need for include ZXVEDU04 of EXIT_SAPLVEDA_002?

    I went ahead and added:
    IF contrl-mestyp = 'ORDERS' AND
      contrl-idoctp = 'Z_EK_ORDERS03'.
    for that check Mahendra.
      I am trying to figure out how to update dxbdcdata correctly to add my data to the screen in EXIT_SAPLVEDA_002 include ZXVEDU04. With the debugger I see updates in dxbdcdata for screens '4002' and '4003' but not for '4001' where I believe my data should be added. Do I just append the records for '4001' myself and does it matter what order it is in?

  • User exit to extend BD10 idoc

    Hi all,
    Please provide a user exit to extend BD10 idoc.
    Thank you.

    Hi,
       Enhancement MGV00001.
      Exit FM is EXIT_SAPLMV01_001 to fetch data from database.
      Exit FM is EXIT_SAPLMV01_001 to post data.
    You can use Badi BADI_MATMAS_ALE_CR also to fetch data from database and populate it to idoc for

  • Determine which validation step called the user exit, possible?

    Hello all,
    We have a a validation with different steps that use the  same user exit in their respective check.
    My functional analyst asked me if there is a way to programmatically determine in the user exit which step is executing the user exit.
    So I am asking the same question here.
    As an example:
    Validation FI100 has step 001,  002, and 003.
    Each of these steps use the user exit U100 from module pool ZGGBR001 in their check.
    I haven't found a way in the code of U100 to determine which step called U100.
    Does anyone know if this can be done?
    I have used the following technique to get a variable from the program's call stack.
    data: var_name(30) type c value '(Z_CALLING)VARIABLE' .
    field-symbols: <fs> type any.
      assign (var_name) to <fs>.
      write: / 'Variable from Z_CALLING', <fs>.
    But I'm not sure how this might work with validation steps/user exits.
    Thanks
    Bruce

    Vinod,
    I did some debugging after I posted my question.  I came to the same solution, use FM 'SYSTEM_CALLSTACK'.
    VALCHCK_2FI100##001
    loop at i_callstack into w_callstack
                        where EVENTNAME+0(9) = 'VALCHCK_2'.
    FI110 is the validation
    001    is the step
    Thomas,
    Thanks for the caveats.

  • User Exit to copy Sales order data to Billing Doc

    Hi,
    I want a User Exit to copy a particular field value from sales order to Invoice.
    The field which I am copying is STCEG(VAT Reg number)..
    I am using the exit
    USEREXIT_FILL_VBRK_VBRP but I am not able to acheive my solution.
    Is there any other way other than copy croutines with USER EXITS.
    Thanks.

    That's strange. SAP documentation says:
    "This user exit is only called when the billing document is created. It is used to provide the header and the item of the new billing document with deviating or additional data."
    Check you code. In debugger, set a watchpoint on VBRK-STCEG and check why the value gets lost.
    Regards
    Clemens
