Help in creation of XML file for IDOC postings

Hi All,
Need help if anyone has knowledge/experience in creating XML files for IDOC processing.
We need to design an input file (in XML format) for creation of IDOCu2019s for purchase Invoices through Interface.
We have an existing input file, which is working correctly. We are trying to modify this existing input file for a new Tax Code (Non-deductible inverse tax liability). This tax code is working fine for manual postings. But, through IDOC, tax postings are not correctly triggering.
Could you please confirm if any one has experience on this, so that I can share more details for resolving.
Thanks & Regards,
Srini

Hello,
you can use CALL TRANSFORMATION id, which will create a exact "print" of the ABAP data into the XML.
If you need to change the structure of XML, you can alter your ABAP structure to match the requirements.
Of course you can create your own XSLT but that is not that easy to describe and nobody will do that for you around here. If you would like to start with XSLT, you´d better start the search.

Mandatory Fields for IDOC ORDERS01 for Pricing Condition EDI1 to trigger

Hi ,
I'm Testing an Inbound ORDRSP using we 19 for Pricing Conditions EDI1. What are the Mandatory Fields for IDOC ORDERS01
Thanks

hello,
I think it's better to execute VA01 to create a sales order; in that way you should have an idea of mandatory fields.
Thanks.

MATERIAL LINK TO ONE SAP SYSTEM TO ANOTHER SAP SYSTEM FOR IDOC TRANSFER

Hi Experts,
How the MATERIAL LINK TO ONE SAP SYSTEM TO ANOTHER SAP SYSTEM FOR IDOC TRANSFER?
Scenario : when 2nd system create the invoice,it will create a po in the 1st system.
51 error msg we are getting material does not exists.but the material is available in the receiving plant.
Please suggest

If you say the material master is available in the 1st system (where you create the order), then the material number in the IDOC may not match with the material number in your database.
leading zeros. material number stored as alphanumeris instead of numeric.

Business system for idoc reciver communication channel.

hi gurus,
iam doing one file to idoc scenerio.
for defining reciver idoc adapter ,which type of businees system i required that is configured in SLD.
pls guide me .
warm regards.

Hi
You can use th Buiness system as a receiver for IDOC.
Making sure
1. the LS of the system(R/3) is same in the SLD and it is also reflecting in the adapter specific attributes in the ID.
2. Use the same LS name for the BS pointng to FIle in the SLD.
Complete the IDOC configuration from XI
1. Create the RFC dest from XI to ECC
2. Create the Trfc port and call this RFC dest created..
3. Use this Trfc port in the IDOC receiver
On ECC:
Make sure the Partner Profiles is created properly.
it is suggested to use always the business systems when you deal with IDOC and Proxies.

Issue loading Meta Data for IDoc Type WPUKSR01 in XI Integration Repository

Hi,
I want to load the Meta Data for IDoc Type WPUKSR01 in XI Integration Repository out of BI. Unfortunately, this IDoc is not available in the IDoc List. I checked in BI and the IDoc Type is available in WE60 and WE30. Also, I can load the Meta Data for the Idoc in XI ABAP (IDX2).
Can someone tell me why the IDoc doesn't show up in XI Integration Repository Import Object List?
Thanks in advance.
Best Regards.
Alex

Hi Aamir,
The Idoc is released since Release 30A. I also tried to load the IDoc Meta Data from ERP with the same result: it does not show up in the list.
Thanks anyway.

EOIO for IDOCs to XI

Hi,
My scenario is IDOC ---> xi ---> File.
Need to implement EOIO(serialization) for IDOCs coming from ECC.
Checked "Queue Processing" and assigned rule "FIRST_16_OF_MESTYP".
When I send the IDOC using WE19, I get message "IDocs are stored in the queue".
But, IDOCs are not coming to XI. Please help.
Versions: ECC 6.0 & PI 7.0 SPS 13.
Also, do I need to maintain an entry in IDXQUEUE table?

Abstract Interface for IDoc Proxy

Hi All,
Do we need to make Abstract interfaces for IDocs and Proxys too if we want to use them in BPM?
XIer

Aamir,
I agree with u that we can't create proxie's for Abstract interfaces. But consider the case I want to call Proxy inside BPM, is this possible?
Yes its possible. As I mentioned in my previous replies for IDOC's .Similarly for Proxy receiver Interface determination we need to give Actual Inbound Interface name instead of Abstract. MI_Proxy_Abs --> use MI_Proxy_IB . Provided both the interfaces has the same structure.
I hope it clears!!!

Function module creation for IDOC processing...

hi Experts,
             i want to create a function module for idoc processing..
message type: zashpmnt
idoc type : shpmnt05
plz tell me which standard FM is used... and tell me what changes i want to do in it....
Tnx in Advance..

Hello,
         If you are trying to process an Outbound IDoc for the SHIPMNT05 IDoc Type with an Extension, you can use the IDOC_OUTPUT_SHPMNT Function Module which is assigned to SHPM Process Code.
       In Addition, since you have an IDoc Extension, you are required to populate the Custom Segment / Fields. For this, there is a Customer Function / Exit called EXIT_SAPLV56K_002 which you can use it for adding your Custom Segments to the IDoc ZSHPMNT05.
       If you are writing code in this exit, make sure to create a Project in CMOD.
       Also, ensure that you've made the assignment in WE82 with the Message Type , IDoc Type & the Extension.
       For Inbound, if you would like to Create a Custom Function Module, you can follow the Naming Convention Z_IDOC_INPUT_SHPMNT for which you are required follow the below Steps.
1. Register the FM as Inbound FM in BD51 T-Code.
2. Assign the FM to IDoc Type & Extension in WE57.
3. You'll need to Create a Custom Process Code in WE42 in which you are required to make add your FM.
4. Maintain Partner Profiles in WE20.
5. Have the Process Code Migrated to the Testing Environment as creation of Custom Process Code is a Customizing Activity and it requires a Customizing Request to be created / Migrated.
6. Define the Parameters as defined in the Standard Inbound Function Modules such as IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS , IDOC_INPUT_DELVRY etc.

What is the internal processing for idocs

Dear friends this is subbu working as a abap consultant.
can any body explain the how idocs are transfered (inbound process and outbound process)

1.Here out bound means sender.Inbound mens --receiver.
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.

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)

RBDMANIN - Start error handling for non-posted IDocs
RBDSTATE - Send Audit Confirmations
FOr testing you can use WE19.
There are two filtering in IDoc.
Segment Filtering:
Segment filtering can be achieved using T/Code BD56. Here you can suppress a whole segment irrespective of data inside it . You have to give Message Type / Sender Prrtner / Receiver Partner.
Data Filtering:
Data filtering can be done in dustribution model (BD64) where you can restrict whole IDOCS or partials IDOCS to be send based on data in fields inside IDOC depending on whether the segment in which you filter is at the highest level or at a lower level. For example in MATMAS if you put a filter of E1MARCM for a particular plant , only data for this plant will go and other plants will be ignored.

Enhanced Interface Determination for IDOCs

Hi All,
I've a query on the usage of Enhanced Interface Determination for IDocs.
I've to create IDocs based on the condition in the Message Mapping i.e. say if recordtype in the source is A then IDoc1 should be created and if recordtype is B then IDoc2 should be created.
Is it possible to use Enhanced Interface Determination to achieve this??.. Because I was told by someone that Enhanced Interface Determination can't be used for IDoc based scenarios though am using External Definitions for the mapping purpose. Please clarify.
Thanks in advance
Regards,
Joe.

Hi Sridhar/ Bhavesh,
Thanks for your prompt reply. I think I wasn't clear in my previous post.
The scenario is the input file has three different record types (3 different structures) and the IDocs should be created based on the record type. I don't think I can use the condition based scenario as the record types are totally different. Please suggest.
Thanks,
Joe.

Hi sitaram s ,
IDoc
- IDoc (for intermediate document) is a standard data structure for electronic data interchange (EDI) between application programs written for the popular SAP business system or between an SAP application and an external program. IDocs serve as the vehicle for data transfer in SAP's Application Link Enabling (ALE) system. IDocs are used for asynchronous transactions: each IDoc generated exists as a self-contained text file that can then be transmitted to the requesting workstation without connecting to the central database. Another SAP mechanism, the Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI) is used for synchronous transactions.
A large enterprise's networked computing environment is likely to connect many geographically distributed computers to the main database. These computers are likely to use different hardware and/or operating system platforms. An IDoc encapsulates data so that it can be exchanged between different systems without conversion from one format to another.
IDoc types define different categories of data, such as purchase orders or invoices, which may then be broken down into more specific categories called message types. Greater specificity means that an IDoc type is capable of storing only the data required for a particular transaction, which increases efficiency and decreases resource demands.
An IDoc can be generated at any point in a transaction process. For example, during a shipping transaction process, an IDoc may be generated that includes the data fields required to print a shipping manifest. After a user performs an SAP transaction, one or more IDocs are generated in the sending database and passed to the ALE communication layer. The communication layer performs a Remote Function Call (RFC), using the port definition and RFC destination specified by the customer model. The IDoc is transmitted to the receiver, which may be an R/3, R/2, or some external system.
Archiving Processed IDocs
IDoc archiving is a two-step process:
1. Archive the IDoc.
2. After that another job will be generated. You can see in your SARA for your trigger to delete those archived IDocs.
Have a look at transaction WE47, set "Archiving - Possible" for all statuses to be archived. Use transaction SARA with object IDoc to archive. If the above is set then all IDocs are archived the same way.
Transaction SARA works in the following way:
On the main screen enter IDoc as the object. Click on Customising -> Technical settings. This shows the logical filename (configured via transaction FILE & SF01) that will be used to get a filename when writing the archive files. It also shows the document type (that links to an archive via transaction 0AC0) or the archive, depending on SAP version. You can also set the size of the archive files and whether the deletion and storage jobs should execute automatically or not.
On the main screen there are, amongst others, buttons for ARCHIVE, DELETE and MANAGEMENT. When you click on ARCHIVE you will go to a screen where you can create variants, and set the parameters for the archiving job. The EXECUTE button will schedule this job. If the "start automatic" tic for the deletion program was not set in customising, you will need to go to the DELETE button on the main screen to schedule the deletion jobs, after the archive job has finished. This schedules a job per archive file. In MANAGEMENT you will be able to see the statuses of each archive run.
