ALE/IDOC complex scenario

The scenario is a little weird but this is what I need to do.
I want to send idoc from ECC 5.0 to 3.1I and then to external system. I did succeed in sending idoc from ECC 5.0 to 3.1I but not further to external system. How can I achieve this scenario using ALE. A detailed step by step approach would be helpful and appreciated.
This is what I did and didn't succeed. In the inbound partner profile, I maintained outbound parameters which points to port and RFC destination to external system so that whenever the idoc comes in the 3.1I system it sends the same to external system. I didn't maintain the distribution model from 3.1I to external system which I think worthless. Pls note that I cannot change the architecture in any way. And would like the suggestions to be in sync with the architecture. Thanks a lot and appreciate any help
Thanks
Ricky

Did you see the recent blog on this?
You need to determine whether a standard message / IDOC exists for the object you are dealing with.

ALE & IDOC Example Scenarios

Hi all,
I'm trying to learn ALE & IDOC. I'm looking for example program for practicing.
I gone through arvind nagpal book and other documentations. I know the theoretical part, but i'm desperately looking for some example programs.
I've searched in google and SDN, but didnt find any example programs.
or else.
Can someone explain me briefly, what is the role of technical consultant in ALE&IDOC scenario?. Whether it may
creating the logical systems.
creating partner profiles
creating RFC destinations
etc etc....
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Based on the business requirements, you may need to do the following actions:
1) Extending standard Idocs.
2) Complete custom idoc scenario
3) Enhancing standard Idoc population programs using exits.
4) Creating custom segments
5) Creating partner profiles
etc

Getting Error 26 in ALE IDOC scenario .- EDI Syntax Check Error...

Hi..
i am working in ALE Idoc scenario...I am getting Status 3 as well as status 26 in we02 transaction in my custom IDOC scenario for outbound process..
The error is 'EDI- SYntax Check'..
How to remove this error..
Pls help.

ya, there is only one segment available in IDOC..named i.e zseg_a .
So , error in postion is avoided..
How to find syntax error then?

ALE/IDOC and RFC/BAPI Integration Scenarios with SAP DS for ESA v3

Hi,
we are planning two PoCs of Integration Plattforms. One of our major requirement set is SAP Integration into our existing SOA.
Because we also have R/3 4.7 Systems in production, we are planning to test ALE/IDOC and RFC/BAPI Integration scenarios with these Integration Plattforms.
My question is:
We are looking for are smart solution to get a SAP Test Environment, where we can test ALE/IDOC und RFC/BAPI Integration scenarios.
It is possible to do this with SAP DS for ESA v3 or shall we better use IDES for that purpose?
Best regards,
Steven

Hi Abhishek,
This is our scenario. We are doing an integration of SAP HR r/3 system with the CRM system. We need housing information details of the employees which we have in custom infotype 9310 in SAP HR system and we need those details in the CRM system. So am planning out for an ALE/IDOC approach for the integration and gonna maintain the 9310 details in a custom table. In the CRM system, we gonna build a BOL layer for accessing the 9310 details. Also i'm preparing a HLD for this process. I wanna read and go through few same HLD's before i submit my proposal to my client. Please suggest me and help me out.
Thanks in advance.

U can give a try as follows.
In the Partner Profile of Sender R/3 system,
Give the Receiver Party P_Party in the PartnerNo. Give the 'Business Partner' as logical System type.
In XI, Party Definition of P_Party
Give the following Alternative Identifier
Agency -   Sender R/3 Business System
Scheme -   ALE#GP
Value    -    P_Party

ALE IDOC's Real Time Scenarios

Hi Friends,
Can anyone get me some real time scenarios in ALE IDoc's.
Please help me out .
Thank You.
Patil

HI Patil
You can try out any of the following
Transfering Master Data like
1. Material Master
2. Customer Master
3. Vendor Master
etc..
For this You need to Activate the Change Pointer through IMG SALE...for the repective MESSAGE TYPE say Material Master MATMAS
After That creat Material (MM01)
After that go to SE38 Run the Report programm <b>RBDCPMIG</b> to created Master IDOC and Communication IDOC...And if All Your ALE Settings are correct .. it will transfer the IDOC to Other Client....or R/3
YOu can also try
Creation of purchase Order what has been explained in above reply..
You can also try out this scenario instructed in this Quick refrance Guide.....

IDOC-XI scenario problem

I have a IDOC - XI scenario,
where IDOC is generating from a R/3,
the problem is, an IDOC was sent from R/3, but has not reached XI,
in R/3, i have seen in WE05, there i see this IDOC having status '03',
and, also in SM58, there i no error corresponding to this IDOC,
but in XI, in IDX5, i cant see that IDOC,
where the problem lies?

Make sure that the sender partner and receiver partner values corrrespond to the logical system names you have used in your partner profile in we20. Sender Partner Name should be your R3's logical system name, and Receiver Partnr Name should be the Logical System name for which you have created an Outybound Entry in We20.The Sender port and receiver port also should be be the ones created in We21 for XI, and SAP+"SYSID" for R3
) Check your PARTENER PROFILE settings ; is IDOC in outbound messages.
2) You may need to check Bussiness System given for Technical System for r3 and in ID check Adapter Specific Identifiers in OBJECTS ->Bussiness System->Service
Go to bd87 and trigger them. You can only trigger the idocs if they are in yellow color. If it is in red it is having an error.
So try to send the one which are in yellow error so that we can see whether it is reaching XI or not. If everything is OK then you should see the idoc in sxmb_moni.

Data transfer using ALE/IDOC into XML.

Dear All,
I have to transfer FI document data (FB01) from the sap system ,convert it into XML and dump it in 1 of the file servers.I want to do this using ALE/IDOC.Is it possible to do the same and how.Similarly i want to do the same for Vendor and Customer master i.e sending the data in XML format.
Kindly Suggest how do i go about doin the same..Its very urgent.Please help.
Thanks & Regards,
Lailu Philip.

In continuation:
Example Purchasing & Selling scenario
We will develop a custom IDoc to carry the billing number from the Service Receivers system to the Service Providers system. We will populate the IDoc in a user exit on the sending side and we will process the transaction on the receiving side using a custom function module and a BDC transaction call.
No rule conversion, segment filtering or version conversion will be implemented in the model as described in Figure 1.
Requirements
Working ALE environment - See ALE Basis Configuration Guide;
ALE scenario design together with the business requirement;
Development access; and
ALE configuration access.
NOTES:
1. All IMG references to transactions are located in the transaction SALE which is the ALE portion of the IMG
2. This is one way of developing a scenario where no message control exists. If message control exist (EG. On purchase orders) then NAST can be used to call an outbound function module that would create the required IDocs.
3. Extensive knowledge of IDocs and ALE basis configuration is required in order to understand this guide.
2. OUTBOUND PROCESSING
2.1. Create IDoc type (WE30) Client independent
The IDoc type refers to the IDoc structure that you will require for your development. In our case the IDoc type is called ZINVRV01. This IDoc type will have 1 segment called Z1INVRV with 2 fields, LIFNR & XBLNR, in this segment. If you require many segments or nested segments then they are also created using the same procedure.
We will create the IDoc of the following structure:
ZINVRV01
Purchasing and Selling - Invoice receipt reversal
Z1INVRV P&S - Segment 1
Segment fields
LIFNR Vendor account number
XBLNR Reference document number
Figure 3: IDoc type ZINVRV01
To create the IDoc type, follow these next few steps:
Enter transaction WE30 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain IDoc type)
Type in ZINVRV01 and click on Basic IDoc type, click the Create icon
Click on Create new (we are creating an IDoc from scratch but you may want to copy another IDoc if it is similar to your requirements) and enter a description, and press enter
Click on ZINVRV01 and then on the Create icon
Enter Z1INVRV as the segment type (must start with Z1), check mandatory if the segment must exist (in this case check it), enter 1 in minimum number and 1 as maximum number. (Make the maximum number 9999999999 if there are going to be many of these segments in each IDoc. IE. When line items are passed via IDocs), click on Segment editor
Enter a description for your segment type and create
Enter a description for your segment, enter each field required in your IDoc, in our case type LIFNR across for Field name, DE structure and DE documentation, repeat for XBLNR and press enter to validate.
Save and generate, press back
To release the segment choose Goto, Release from the menu
Check the box on the line of your new segment
Save, back and enter
Your IDoc type structure should be displayed with your new segment
Save and back
To release the IDoc type choose Extras, Release type from the menu and Yes
Your IDoc is now ready for use. If you need to add fields or segments to your IDoc type, you will need to cancel the release of the IDoc type as well as the segment release using a similar procedure followed above (except now you uncheck the release box for the segment and you choose cancel release for the IDoc type).
2.2. Create message type (WE81) Client independent
To create a new message type, follow these next few steps:
Enter transaction WE81 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Create logical message type)
Choose Create logical message type by double clicking on it
Click on change icon to enter change mode
Click on New entries to add a new type
Enter the required message type, in our case it is ZINVRV and an appropriate description
Save and exit.
Your message type has now been created. The next step will be to link it to the IDoc.
2.2.1. Link message to IDoc type (WE82 & BD69) Client independent
To link the message type to the IDoc type follow these next few steps:
Enter transaction WE82 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> EDI: Message Types and Assignment to IDoc Types)
Click on change icon to enter change mode
Click on New entries to create the link
Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01
Save and exit
Enter transaction BD69 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Assign message type to IDoc for ALE)
Click on change icon to enter change mode
Click on New entries to create the link
Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01
Save and exit
Your IDoc is now linked to your message type. We still need to link object types and add the message to the model before we can use the message.
2.2.2. Maintain object type for message type (BD59) Client independent
The ALE objects are used to create links between IDocs and applications objects, to control the serialisation, to filter messages in the customer model and to use listings.
For our own message type and IDoc you must maintain object types for the links.
If you want to check the serialisation for the message type, then you must maintain object types for the serialisation. If no serialisation object has been maintained for a given message type, then the serialisation will not be checked for this message type.
To add an object type to our message type, follow these next few steps:
Enter transaction BD59 (ALE -> Extensions -> ALE object maintenance -> Maintain object types)
Type in your message type ZINVRV and press enter
Click on New entries
Enter your object type, LIFNR (We need to use the vendor as a filter object), the segment name where LIFNR resides, Z1INVRV, a number 1 for the sequence followed by the actual field name LIFNR
Save and exit.
You have now created an object that well use as a filter object in the customer model to direct the flow of messages to the various logical systems based on the vendors in the filter of the message type ZINVRV.
We now need to add our new message type to the distribution model.
2.3. Configuring the Distribution Model
This task is performed on your ALE reference client.
2.3.1. Manual Configuration (BD64) Client dependent
To manually configure the customer distribution model, read the ALE configuration procedure, and follow these steps:
Perform the Maintain customer distribution model directly function. (ALE -> Distribution customer model -> Maintain customer distribution model directly)
Specify the customer model you want to maintain and the logical system that is to be the sender of the messages OR create a new model. (Create model ALE with logical system ALELS1C400)
Choose the receiving systems to which the sending system must forward message type ZINVRV to.
For each receiving logical system allocate the message type necessary for communication to the receiving systems as per ALE configuration procedure.
Create filter objects (in our case LIFNR as the object type with the associated vendor number, 0000018001 with leading zeros, in the object area) for the message types.
Save the entries.
NOTES:
You cannot maintain a message type between the same sender and receiver in more than one customer distribution model.
Only the owner is authorised to modify the model.
To change the owner of a model, choose the 'Maintain ownership of customer distribution model' function. Make sure that all changes will be distributed to all systems that know the corresponding model. To do so, you can use the correction and transport system.
To transport the customer distribution model you should use the Distribute customer model function of the IMG as described below.
2.3.2. Distribute customer model (BD71) Client dependent
After the customer model has been created centrally, it must be distributed to the other remote systems. This entails first of all setting up the communication for the distributed systems and then sending the model.
2.3.2.1. Distribute Model (BD71) Client dependent
This task is performed on your ALE reference client. To distribute the customer distribution model, read the ALE configuration procedure and follow these steps:
Make the settings for the communication with the other decentral systems, you have not set them yet.
Define the RFC destination for R/3 connections whose names correspond to the name of the corresponding logical system.
Create the output partner profile.
Distribute the customer model
Specify the name of the customer model.
You must specify the target system to which you want to distribute the customer model.
You must repeat this function for every distributed logical system.
2.3.2.2. Maintain sending system partner profile (WE20) Client dependent
With this function, you define the partner profiles for all outbound and inbound messages on the basis of the customer distribution model.
After you have defined and distributed the customer model, you will have to maintain the partner profiles locally. To do this read the ALE configuration procedure.
Enter the output mode (background, immediately) and the package size for outbound processing.
Requirements
The customer model must be maintained.
RFC destinations must be maintained.
The customer model must be distributed.
To ensure that the appropriate persons in charge are informed if a processing error occurs, you must make settings in: Error processing Maintain organisational units.
2.4. Populate & distribute IDoc using ABAP
An IDoc consists of a control record with structure edidc and one or more data records with structure edidd. The control record contains the sender and recipient of the IDoc, as well as information on the type of message.
To be able to pass an IDoc to the ALE layer, you must set up a field string with structure edidc and an internal table with structure edidd. They are used to call function module master_idoc_distribute, which performs the save to the database and triggers the dispatch if necessary.
2.4.1. Example code
The code displayed below does the following:
populates our IDoc segment Z1INVR with the 2 fields XBLNR and LIFNR, populates the segment name and appends this to an internal table used to store the IDoc data;
populates the control record info with the message type and IDoc type; and
calls the MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE function module which distributes the IDoc as configured in the customer distribution model.

Figure 5: Inbound processing example code
3.1.1. Debugging inbound FM
Use transaction WE19 to test inbound function module in debugging mode. Also use WE05 to view the IDocs and their statuses.
3.2. Maintain ALE attributes
The inbound function module needs to be linked to the message type and the message type needs to be linked to the appropriate inbound process code at the partner profile level before the scenario is enabled. These steps are described below in detail.
3.2.1. Link Message Type to Function Module (WE57) Client independent
To link a message (ZINVRV) type to a function module (Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV) follow these steps:
Enter transaction WE57 (ALE -> Extensions -> Inbound -> Allocate function module to logical message)
Select an entry (EG. IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS) and copy
Type in module name Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
Type in basic IDoc type as ZINVRV01
Type in message type as ZINVRV
Type object type as IDOCINVOIC (Invoice document) - Used for workflow
Direction should be set to 2 for inbound
Enter and save
3.2.2. Define FM settings (BD51) Client independent
Enter transaction BD51 (ALE -> Extensions -> Inbound -> Define settings for input modules)
Click on New entries
Type in the name of the new function module Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
Enter 0 for mass processing in the output column
Save and Exit
3.2.3. Maintain process codes (WE42) Client dependent
A process code needs to be maintained on each client. It then needs to be linked to the message via the partner profiles on each client. This allows the various clients to use a unique function module for the same message type.
To maintain the process code follow these steps:
Log on to the appropriate receiving system client
Execute WE42 (ALE -> Extensions -> Inbound -> Maintaining process codes inbound)
Choose Inbound with ALE service
Choose Processing with function module
Click on Processing with function module and choose create icon
Click on New Entries
Type in process code ZINR and give it a description and save
Now you are asked to Please maintain codes added in ALE entry methods, enter and choose Z_IDOC_INPUT_FIRVSL and copy it. You should choose a FM similar to your one.
Enter your process code ZINR
Enter your function module Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
NOTE: The next 6 steps are used in workflow error handling.
Enter IDPKFIDCMT in object type
Enter MASSINPUTFINISHED in End event
Enter IDOCINVOIC in IDoc object type
Enter INPUTERROROCCURREDFI in IDoc start event
Enter INPUTFINISHEDFI in IDoc End event
Enter IDOCINVOIC in Application object type
You will need to determine the task associated with object IDOCINVOIC, and then assign the appropriate position to it. This position will then receive the application error messages via workflow.
To set up the workflow area please consult the Workflow config guide.
3.3. Create inbound partner profile
For each message type you need to maintain the inbound partner profiles.
3.3.1. Maintain receiving system partner profile (WE20) Client dependent
To maintain inbound partner profiles read the document ALE configuration procedure:
Add the message type ZINVRV with process code ZINR.
Enter the output mode (background, immediately) for inbound processing and NO message code.
Enter the position S and choose the ALE administrator 50000085. This position will then receive all the technical ALE errors via workflow.
3.4. Test
Once the inbound function module has been debugged the scenario should be ready to test in its entirety. If problems occur, read through the relevant areas of this document to check your configuration or code.
Hope this will help you,
If you want me to explain more, you can give me your email id.
Reward with points incase you are satisfied.

What is a process code in ale idoc

what is a process code in ale idoc,what is the purpose of Process code.

Hi,
     Let me tell some scenario then u would be able to understand what a process code is-------
In ALE ie, the data requested system is receiver and the data already presented system is sender ie, from where we are having the data,
here in sender side----
       we need a program to tranfer required data into idoc--( idoc is just a data container )    in sender side this program logic is in a function module it is configured in we41.
         ie this will transfer the data from database to idoc----in sender side it is a process code
and in receiver side after receiving the data we have to post it in database again program needed it is also ie the required code is also in function module it is configured in we42
it is about receiver side f.m or simply process code
okkkkkkkkkkkk

Steps in Inbound Processing in ALE IDOC

Hi all,
Could anyone explain the steps to be followed in inbound processing in ALE Idoc.
I know we have to create a FM n then call that in a program. But still the detail steps are not clear.
An example will be really helpful.
Thanx

Hi
Outbound:
Step 1. Application document is created when transaction is saved.
         2. Message control is invoked.
         3. Messages are processed by system.
         4. Messages are Edited (if desired).
         5. Output (ALE / EDI) is checked
         6. Validate against Message control record from Partner Profile
         7. Application Document is saved.
         8. Entry NAST table is created for every selected output program
              along with Medium & Timing.
         9. Check for Process Immediately .
                 If (yes)
                   Determine Processing Program from TNAPR Table.
                 ELSE
                   Execute RSNASTED Program.
       10. Read Partner Profile to determine Process Code.
       11. Process Code points to the Function Module & Invoked.
       12. IDoc is generated.
       13. Check for ALE Request.
                    if (Yes)
                        Perform Filters, Conversions, Version Changes etc.
                    Else.
                        IDoc is stored in DATABASE.
INBOUND:
Step 1. EDI Subsystem creates an IDoc file from EDI Messages
        2.   Subsystem calls Functional Module                                 EDI_DATA_INCOMING from startRFC program.
         3. Data in Control Record is validate against the Partner                       Profile.
        4. IDoc is generated in Database and syntax check is                      carried out.
        5. IDoc file is deleted once file read.
        6. Event PROCESSSTATE REACHED is triggered in Idoc Object Workflow.
                   7. Check for Process Immediately.
               If NO
                 Execute RBDAPP01 Program
               Else
                  Read Process Code from Partner Profile
                       Process Code Points to Function Module
                 Application Document Posted.

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?
*WE30 - you can create a IDOC type

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 )
Creating a Segment
Go to transaction code WE31
Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon
Type the short text
Enter the variable names and data elements
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set Release
Follow steps to create more number of segments
Create IDOC Type
Go to transaction code WE30
Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon
The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
Choose the appropriate values and press Enter
The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set release
Create Message Type
Go to transaction code WE81
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter
Click New Entries to create new Message Type
Fill details
Save it and go back
Assign Message Type to IDoc Type
Go to transaction code WE82
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter.
Click New Entries to create new Message Type.
Fill details
Save it and go back

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)

Methods in ALE/IDOC ?

what r the diffrent methods& steps to tranfer the data from outbound to inbound ,viceversa in ale/idoc ?
explain each and every method ? plzzz

Application Linking and Enabling (ALE)
In this document you will learn the step-by-step procedure to setup the ALE system and go through a transaction between two clients
For our purpose we have two clients
namely Client 100 and Client 200.
System name is SAPKDC (FOR BOTH 100 AND 200 CLIENTS).
Distribution of Material Master Data Between two Systems
1) SETUP LOGICAL SYSTEM: (Note: Do Not Create This Step)
To do this follow the following steps
Execute SALE Transaction Code
On The Screen Click on Sending and Receiving Systems.
Then Click on Logical Systems.
Then Click Defining Logical Systems.
Click New Entries Button
(E.g. (LG100 sending system)
(LG200 receiving system))
Enter two logical system names and their description.
Save
Comeback to SALE Transaction Code screen.
2) Now you have to allocate the created logical systems to respective clients.( Note: Do Not Create This Step)
LG100 assign to client 100
LG200 assign to client 200
To do this, do the following.
Click Assigning Client to Logical System.
Ignore the message that comes up on the screen.
Select client 100
Click details button on the toolbar icon or press F2.
In the logical system box, enter LG100.
Click on the save Icon
Click the back button.
Now select client 200.
Click details icon or press f2.
In logical Systems box, enter LG200.
Save
Back.
Comeback to SALE Transaction Code screen.
3) Maintain RFC Destination: (TR.CODE:SM59)
(Note: Do Not Create This Step)
Click Create Button on the Screen
On the Screen Maintain RFC Destination i.e LG200.
Enter LG200 in RFC destination box.
Connection type is 3
Give a description for the RFC destination.
Maintain Technical Settings on Details on Technical Settings tab
Target Host as : SAPKDC (NOTE: Save it as a Host Name)
Maintain Logon Details on Logon/Security tab.
Language: EN.
User: MMUSER200 (This is the logon for dist.)
Client : 200
Password: MM1234.
Save.
Click on create to do the above process for Client 200 in
The client 200 system.
4) Maintain Distribution Model.(BD64). (ABAPer role starts here)
Execute Maintain distribution model directly for
creating the model.
Click on change mode button on App tool bar of the Screen.
Create Model View pushbutton on App tool bar of the Screen.
A pop screen will appear in which you specify
Short text as Distribution for MM Data.
Enter Technical Name as LGMODEL.
Select Model View and Click on Add Message Type Pushbutton on App toolbar of the Screen.
A popup screen will appear in which you specify
Model View as LGMODEL.
Sender as LG100.
Receiver as LG200.
Again Click on Add Message Type Pushbutton on App toolbar of the Screen.
A popup screen will appear in which you specify
Model View as LGMODEL.
Sender as LG200.
Receiver as LG100.
SAVE.
On the same screen goto Menubar and select Environment.
And then select Generate Partner Profiles , then execute it.
On the Screen specify the Logical System as LG200.
Then execute the screen.
Click back.
Again On the same screen goto Menubar and select EDIT.
Again select Model View and then select Distribute.
****LOGIN to client 200.
Execute Tr.code BD64 and again On the same screen goto Menubar and select Environment.
And then select Generate Partner Profiles , then execute it.
On the Screen specify the Model View as LGMODEL
And Specify the Logical System as LG100.
Then execute the screen.
Click back.
*******Switch back to client 100 Session.
5) Create Material using MM03 Tr.Code.
Enter the material name as LGMATERIAL
Industry sector as Mechanical Engineering
Material Type as Finished Products.
And then Click on Data Pushbutton on the App tool bar.
Select views.
In the select views box for materials check basic data 1 AND 2.

Click Save.
Now I Created a Material in Client 100 , I want to transfer this data to Client 200.
6) Execute BD10 to transfer the material in which you specify
the material as LGMATERIAL and
message type as MATMAS (client100).
Then a Screen will be displayed in which it shows that
1 Master Idoc Generated .. Enter
1 Communication Idoc Generated..Enter.
*******LOGIN to Client 200.
7) Execute BD11 to get the material in which you specify
the material as LGMATERIAL and
message type as MATMAS (client200).
8) Execute Tr.code MM03 and give the material as LGMATERIAL
and see that the material is displayed as it was in Client 100.
If not follow these steps.
9) Execute Tr.code WE19( for rectification of errors in client200).
Specify the Existing Idoc Number and Executes it .
A Screen is displayed in which you specify the corresponding Function Module as INPUT_IDOC_MATMAS01 and execute it.
10) Execute Tr.code MM03 and give the material as LGMATERIAL
and see that the material is displayed as it was in Client 100.
Now the Material is correctly displayed in Client 200.
11) Monitoring of IDOCS.
Transaction Codes:
IDOC Display of Status: WE 05.
IDOC Date and Time: WE07.
Outbound:
Step 1. Application document is created when transaction is saved.
2. Message control is invoked.
3. Messages are processed by system.
4. Messages are Edited (if desired).
5. Output (ALE / EDI) is checked
6. Validate against Message control record from Partner Profile
7. Application Document is saved.
8. Entry NAST table is created for every selected output program
along with Medium & Timing.
9. Check for Process Immediately .
If (yes)
Determine Processing Program from TNAPR Table.
ELSE
Execute RSNASTED Program.
10. Read Partner Profile to determine Process Code.
11. Process Code points to the Function Module & Invoked.
12. IDoc is generated.
13. Check for ALE Request.
if (Yes)
Perform Filters, Conversions, Version Changes etc.
Else.
IDoc is stored in DATABASE.
INBOUND:
Step 1. EDI Subsystem creates an IDoc file from EDI Messages
2. Subsystem calls Functional Module EDI_DATA_INCOMING from startRFC program.
3. Data in Control Record is validate against the Partner Profile.
4. IDoc is generated in Database and syntax check is carried out.
5. IDoc file is deleted once file read.
6. Event PROCESSSTATE REACHED is triggered in Idoc Object Workflow.

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.

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)

Diff... between ALE, IDOC, RFC, BAPI, BADI --- Not clear and clarify

Hi All
    I am learning XI and the difference between " ALE, IDOC, RFC, BAPI, BADI "
    Not clear and when to use what and how in point of XI ?
   Pl..clarify me
Adv..thanks and points

Hi
This will expalin you every thing ...pl..go through
The interface concept of the classic R/3 is based on two different strategies: Remote Function Calls (RFC) and data exchange through IDoc message documents. RFC makes direct and synchronous calls of a program in the remote system. If the caller is an external program it will call an RFC-enabled function in R/3 and if the calling program is the R/3 system it will call an RFC-function in another R/3-system or it will call a non-R/3 program through a gateway-proxy (usually rfcexec.exe). BAPIs are a subset of the RFC-enabled function modules, especially designed as Application Programming Interface (API) to the SAP business object, or in other words: are function modules officially released by SAP to be called from external programs.
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.
The philosophical difference between EDI and ALE can be pinned as follows: If we send data to an external partner, we generally speak of EDI, while ALE is a mechanism to reliable replicate data between trusting systems to store a redundant copy of the IDoc data. The difference is made clear, when we think of a purchase order that is sent as an IDoc. If we send the purchase order to a supplier then the supplier will store the purchase order as a sales order. However, if we send the purchase order via ALE to another R/3 system, then the receiving system will store the purchase order also as a purchase order.
I hope this will help you to understand the difference bet..those

Changes to customer search and Pull RFC [ALE/Idoc's]

Hi All,
I'm having a scenario as above in my project regarding the ALE/Idocs:
Customer Reference Server(CRS) is the Database through which the data is pulled. At present whenever customer wants the data it is pulled by the RFC method from CRS, now we must change it and pull the data through ALE/Idoc method that means we must trigger the Idoc whenever the customer pulls the records from the CRS. We must remove the RFC method entirely and implement the Idoc method.
If possible please provide me the logic for the same how to implement the Idoc method.
Waiting for your early response.
Thanks in advance

Hi Abhishek,
This is our scenario. We are doing an integration of SAP HR r/3 system with the CRM system. We need housing information details of the employees which we have in custom infotype 9310 in SAP HR system and we need those details in the CRM system. So am planning out for an ALE/IDOC approach for the integration and gonna maintain the 9310 details in a custom table. In the CRM system, we gonna build a BOL layer for accessing the 9310 details. Also i'm preparing a HLD for this process. I wanna read and go through few same HLD's before i submit my proposal to my client. Please suggest me and help me out.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Arunmozhi.
