ALE/IDOC PROCESSING

hello guys,
Can anyone explain me the ALE/IDOC scenario with some real time example.....
I am having all the material and links for this ....  I know the total process how to create the custom idocs, how to distribute the ale scenario, how to create all the remaining stuff...
But I don't have any real time experience with these....
Let us assume <b>Distribution of Material Master Data Between two Systems</b> as our scenario..
can anyone clearly explain me what would be systems like what r the different legacy systems you have used in your work environment and what is the middle ware you have used what is the business scenario you implemented....
I really appreciate  your valuable time...  I assign the  marks for all the answer.. please guide me

Hi Sri,
Let me try
Assume there are two systems, one is your SAP R/3 and other one is the EBP (Enterprise Buying Portal).
Now all the material from the R/3 system should be available in EBP system so that buyer can buy them online. But it is not advisable to go and create each material in EBP so we will use Distribution of Material data to EBP from SAP R/3. In this way lets say someone has bought the quantity then you require to reduce that much from the R/3 system. here again we can send back the data from EBP to SAP.
Such a way there can be lot many real time scenario.
When the systems are not in the same network we use EAI or XI to link them.
Hope it is clear.
Regards,
Atish

  • Basic doubts in ALE/IDOC processing

    Hi All,
    1.How are IDOC Type and Message Type related? Many to one or One to Many?
    2. what is the prominence of msg code and msg function in ALE outbound processing?
    3. During outbound processing what is the startegy followed by the ALE service layer to pick up the customer model?
       It would be great if any one can answer these questions in plain words rather than referring links. Reward guaranteed.

    Hi Ravi,
    1.Can'te we assign more than one IDOC to the same msg type if the IDOC's are of different versions?
    Yes we can. Doesn't SAP do that? For example, ORDERS01, ORDERS02 ... ORDERS05 are having the same message type ORDERS. You can also create your own IDoc type or extend the standard IDoc type.
    3. When we run a stand alone program to trigger IDOC processing the only mandatory field will be the message type, so how can the sending system identify the receiving system?
    You need to setup partner profile (t/code WE20) and distribution model (t/code BD64). Once this configuration are done, The system will populate automatically the IDoc Control Record for sender and recepient system information when the IDoc generated based partner profile setup.
    Hope this will help.

  • Performance improvement for ALE/IDOC processing

    Dear experts,
    Could you let me know any information to tune performance?
    In our system (SAP R/3 Enterprise 6.20), material master data is distributed from one client to other clients in the same instance. It is because material master is maintained centrally, and is distributed to other clients for member companies.
    During the night batch, distributing master data takes more than 2 hours. Although the distribution usually finishes without errors, we would like to explore ways to improve processing performance. Especially, program RBDMIDOC runs long time to create IDOC for MATMAS, even 0 master IDOC is set eventually.
    OSS notes of the list for OS/DB/SAP parameters related to ALE/IDOC, tips in organizing batch jobs, etc, will be very appreciated.
    Many Thanks,
    Nori

    I'd recommend to profile the program at least once to see where there's possible room for improvements. I.e. an ABAP runtime analysis and SQL trace would be good for a start. You can check out the links in thread Please Read before Posting in the Performance and Tuning Forum, which will give you some references if you need them. Once you have more details, you either know what you need to do or you can provide them and ask a more specific question (and thus you will receive much better answers).
    As a general remark though I've seen often poor performance initially on the changer pointer selection, because there are too many entries in the table (due to system generating unnecessary change pointers, which should be disabled or/and lack of proper reorganization, i.e. deletion of old/processed change pointers via BD22). Sounds like this is most likely also the cause of your problem, because otherwise it's hard to explain long run times without generating any master IDocs. You can check the number of change pointers easily via view BDCPV or BDCP2 - it depends how you store your change pointers (most likely you find them via view BDCPV in a 6.20 system, unless somebody switched it to the newer BDCP2).
    If you still have them in BDCPV (or the underlying tables to be more precise), check out [OSS note 305462 - MOD: Migration change pointer to table BDCP2|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/305462], which will provide you a general hint how to do that (and thus also improve the performance). However, if you're currently not deleting any old change pointers, you should ensure that a regular job runs for transaction BD22 (program RBDCPCLR). You'll easily find other (possibly relevant) OSS notes by doing a search yourself...

    ABOUT ALE AND IDOC
    Go through this hope u can understand .
    ALE/IDOC
    IDOC Programming
    There are two processes in IDOC processing one is INBOUND PROCESS( IDOC coming to the system and its handling at various stages) and the other is OUTBOUND PROCESS( IDOC is send to other system . Separate ABAP programs are written for these 2 processes and different configuration settings are required for each one .Depending upon the trigeering mechanism different programming approaches are used.OUTBOUND PROGRAMS handle the IDOC creation and INBOUND PROGRAMS handle the inbound IDOC and the data trasfer from the IDOC to the database tables.
    NEED FOR ABAP PROGRAMMING arises if
    1)New IDOC was created
    Depending upon the triggering mechanism i.e change pointer,message control
    etc the programming technique changes and the type of process.
    2)Existing IDOC was extended
    User Exits are used to populate data in new segments added and to read them
    back.
    3)To enhance an exsiting process.
    User Exits are used .
    Basic structure of an OUTBOUND PROGRAM
    The basic structure of all outbound programs is same. The CONTROL
    record which is of TYPE EDIDC has to be filled. It contains important fields like
    IDOCTP IDOC type
    MESTYP Message Type
    RCVPRN Recieving Partner (Destination)
    RCVPRT Partner Type (it is LS i.e Logical System)
    The DATA RECORD internal table which is of TYPE EDIDD has to be filled
    in the same order as there are segments in the IDOC definition.
    It has 2 important fields which are to be filled ,these are
    SEGNAM Name of the segment
    SEGDATA Data in the segment and can be upto 1000 bytes.This field
    is corresponds to each data segment in the IDOC.
    e.g.
    DATA INT_EDIDD LIKE EDIDD OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
    DATA W_SEGDATA LIKE zsegment "custom segment zsegment
    INT_EDIDD-SEGNAM = 'ZSEGMENT'
    W_SEGDATA-field1 = value "taken from some table
    W_SEGDATA-field2 = value "taken from some table
    INT_EDIDD-SEGDATA = W_SEGDATA
    APPEND INT_EDIDD
    This will fill the data record corresponding to the segment ZSEGMENT . For all
    segments the sam steps will be repeated until all the data corresponding to all the
    segments in the idoc is filled in the internal table of type EDIDD.
    There is only one control record and can be multile data records in the idoc
    structure.
    Which data is to be extracted from the tables to be filled in EDIDD type internal table is determined in standalone programs from the objects which are specified in the selection screen and from the object key passed to the function module in case of message control and is taken from BDCP table in case of change pointers using function modules "CHANGE_POINTERS_READ"
    In case of stand alone programs and function modules based on change pointers method the function module "MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE" is used to send the IDOC to ALE layer for distribution ,in case of message control it is handled automatically by the RSNASTED program invoked by the message control.
    OUTBOUND PROCESS AND OUTBOUND PROGRAM.
    Outbound programs are used in outbound process to genearte IDOCs . There
    purpose is to extract the data from the tables and to fill the IDOC data records
    and the control record in the IDOC and pass ito the ALE layer for distribution to the recieving system .
    Depending upon the triggering mechanism (how and when the outbound program will be started different techniques and interface is used for outbound program.
    1)Message control
    Application like PO(purchase order) creation use this technique , where the output type is linked to the application(Message control is a configurable cross application component which can be set in IMG .Such programs are created in the form of function modules and linked to the output type which is linked to the apllication.These have predefined interfaces.
    In outbound programs(function module) that use message control the key of the
    application document is passed to the function module whcig will read the data from the table depending upon the key passed(NAST structure) and fill the IDOC segemnts with the application data.The control record is also passed to the function module but is not fully filled, the rmaining fields are filled and the control is passed back to the calling program which is RSNASTED and is invoked by the
    message control to process ALE and EDI output types and this program on recieving the IDOC data will create the physical IDOC in the system.
    The parameteers passed to the function module are
    IMPORTING PARAMETERS
    OBJECT LIKE NAST
    It contains documents key.
    CONTROL_RECORD_IN LIKE EDIDC
    It contains the partailly filled control record
    EXPORETING PARAMETER
    OBJECT_TYPE
    CONTROL_RECORD_OUT LIKE EDIDC
    TABLES
    INT_EDID LIKE EDIDD
    The internal table used to fill the data records in the same order as they exists in the IDOC.
    The important parameters that should be filled in the custom function module are
    CONTROL_RECORD_OUT and INT_EDIDD .The OBJK field of the structue NAST contains the key of the apllication document.
    2)Stand alone programs
    Generally used for Master Data transfer and as such depending upon the requirement can have different interfaces.The programs have a selection screen which has select options to select the objects, and parameters for specifying the recipient Logical System and the Message Type.
    Data is selected based on the specified objects from the tables . and control record of type EDIDC is created and filled with important values like DIRECTION ,IDOCTP,RCVPRT,RCVPRN and MESTYP .
    Data is filled in an internal table of TYPE EDIDD according to segment definitions
    and in same order and the function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE is called passing the control record and the internal table containg IDOC data and importing an internal table consisting of control records for each communication IDOCS created.
    3)Change pointer
    Change Pointer table is read and checked if changes were made to important fields , if so the outbound program will be triggered automatically , these have predefined interfaces
    ALE/IDOC Transaction
    SALE Area Menu for ALE configurations.It includes transactions for
    Logical System definition and linking it to a client, Transactions for
    RFC Destination and Port Definition Etc.
    SM59 RFC Destination
    Here we specify the login settings for the destination including
    the I.P address or Application Server name and the User name and
    password.The information entered here is used to run Remote Function
    Calls(RFC ) on the destination server .We can create number of types
    of RFC Destinations but 3 types are important .
    R/3 (R/3 to R/3), LS(logical system) and TCP/IP.
    The name of the RFC destination should be same as that of Logical
    System as it helps in creation of automatic partner profiles.
    WE21 Port Definition.
    There are 6 types of ports but only 2 types File and Transactional RFC
    types of ports are important.
    We have to specify the RFC Destination before a port can be created.
    WE57 This is used to assign the Inbound function module to the Message Type
    and to the IDOC Type.
    WE42 This is used to define the process Code for Inbound Processing.
    BD95 Define Filter object type .We can specify the field and the table it belongs
    to as a filter object .
    BD59 Assignment of Filter object type to the Message Type .Here we create the
    link between Filter object and the segment and the message type and the
    segment Field.
    BD50 Set message Type to reducible.
    BD65 Define Mandatory Fields.
    BD64 Distribution Model . Also known as Customer Distribution Model Used to
    define all the messages that will be exchanged between remote systems
    and the name of thes logical systems. Any filters can also be specified.
    The model once created has to be distributed on every system which will
    be communicating ,It can be maintained on only One system.
    BD21 Creating IDOcs from change pointers.
    This can be used to create IDOCs from change pointers for a particular
    message LIKE MATMAS.
    BD22 This can be used to delete change pointers.
    BD87 Status Monitor. Idocs can be selected base on number of criteria and there
    processing status can be seen in detail.
    BD10 Material Master Data Distribution .
    Based on Message MATMAS.
    BD12 Customer Master Data Distribution .
    Based on Message CREMAS.
    BD14 Vendor Master Data Distribution
    Based on Message DEBMAS .
    BDFG Generate ALE Interface for BAPI.
    Here we specify the Business Object and the BAPI Function module for
    which the interface has to be created.
    WE31 Segment Editor.
    This is used to create segments. We create the segment type and
    segment definition is automatically created by editor e.g. Z1DUMMY is
    segment type and Z2DUMMY is the segment definition .We specify the
    fields and the data elements these cp\orresponds to create segments.
    WE30 IDOC Editor
    It is used to create a new IDOC Type or IDOC Extension .We specify the
    segments that will be addd to the IDOC type.
    WE02/05 IDOC List.
    Various selct options and parameters are provided to select IDOCs
    depending on the date, direction , mesage type etc.
    WE20 Partner Profile
    Here we create partner profile for each and every partner from / to which
    the messages will be exchanged.There are 6 types of PF generally only
    profiles of type LS(Logical System) ,KU(Customer) ,LI(Vendor) is used.
    We specify the partner number and partner type and the agent and
    the agent type responsible for handling of errors .
    For every message send to the partner we have a outbound record and for
    evry message coming from the partner we have the inbound record .
    We specify the message in the otbound/inbound records ,double
    clicking will take us to the detailed screen where the IDOC Type ,Port
    and whether the IDCO will be immediatelt processed or collected are
    mentioned.
    Steps relate to idoc
    Creation of IDoc
    To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
    1)Create Segment ( WE31)
    2)Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
    3)Create Message Type ( WE81)

  • Ale/idocs in hr

    HI,
    will any body tell the procedure for the ALE/DIOCS in HR,how to handle the custom idocs,extended IDOCS,standard idocs.
    if any body have docs send it.it will really help full to me.

    Hi,
    The ALE/IDOC process is same in HR as in other modules. Search SCN, you ll find mant threads regarding how to configure the ALE/IDOC.
    For HR the message type is HRMD_A for HR to HR
    HRMD_ABA for HR to non-HR.
    The basic type available for HRMD_A is (HRMD_A01-HRMD_A07).
    http://www.easymarketplace.de/online-pdfs.php
    check the document "Timesheet and HR in Distribution Models" its useful.

  • 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

    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?

    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.

    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)

  • ALE - Idoc not getting processed automatically, instead going fine in Debug

    Hello All,
    I have a problem with Inbound idoc processing.
    IDoc settings were made 'immediate processing' in WE20, and the process code is set correctly and the attached of Z-Fun. module to process the idocs to process code.
    The error in inbound side is as 'Function module not allowed: APPL_IDOC_INPUTI' 51 status. Am sure i have to do some thing with ALE settings.
    Can some body help me with correction step or sequence of steps  for this ALE process.
    Thanks & Regards, Jilan

    Hi Jilan,
    Plz follow the steps:
    ALE Configuration:
    •     WE30 - IDOC type creation
    •     WE31 - Create segment
    •     WE81 - Message type creation
    •     WE82 - Link IDOC type to Message type
    •     SE37   - Create Inbound Function Module
    •     BD51  - Maintain entry for Function Module
    •     WE57 - Maintain
    •     BD57  - Link Function Module, IDOC type and Message type
    •     WE42 – Create Inbound Process Code
    •     BD67  - Link Process code to Function Module
    •     WE20 - Create Partner Profile
    •     BD64  -  Display Distribution Model
    •     WE02 -  IDoc List, Display all Inbound/Outbound IDocs
    •     WE14 -  Outbound Processing of IDoc’s
    •     BD20 -  Inbound Processing of IDoc’s
    1st Step:   Create  a Segment  ( WE31)
             Segment is a structure for passing data in IDoc. It actually contains the IDoc data, just like the DDIC table/structure. Segment is created with all the required fields. Then Save it.  But, to actually use this Segment, you have to Release the Segment, otherwise u can’t use the Segment, by menu, EDIT--> Set Release.
             Now, if you want to do some change to this Segment, u cant, unless & until u Cancel the Release, by Edit--> Cancel Release.
    2nd Step:   Create IDOC Type  ( WE30 )
            After creating the Segment, now we have to create the IDoc Type. IDOC Type is like an envelop of a letter, which contains the data inside it, & also some more information like address. IDoc type can be Basic Or Extended.
           Basic IDoc Type:  Using some SAP existing IDOC type (ex. MATMAS) or Custom IDOC type.
           Extension IDOC Type:  When we need some fields extra to an existing IDOC type, then we can extend that Basic Idoc Type by another Segment. This is called Extended idoc type
    3rd Step:   Create Message Type (WE81)
         Message Type is like the Postman for sending the Letter.
      4th Step:   Attach Message Type to the IDOC Type (WE82)
    5th Step:   Create a Function Module (SE37)
           Write the Processing logic in a Function Module.
    6th Step:   Mention the IDOC Type, i.e, 0/1/2 (BD51)
    7th Step:   Assign the Message Type, IDOC Type & Function Module (WE57)
    8th Step:   Create a Custom Process Code (WE42)
    9th Step:   Attach the Function Module to the Process Code (BD67)
    10th Step: Execute Inbound IDOC’ s (WE19)
    Example Function Module: IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS (Standard FM to create Sales Order).
    reward is useful,

  • Query for Inbound processing for ALE IDOC & Outbound through Change Pointer

    Hi,
    I have a scenario, in which I have reduced Message Type for HRMD_A as Inbound and Outbound both.
    The Problem that I am facing is , whenver the inbound Idoc processing takes place, it updates the Infotypes and at the same time, as updation is done, Change Pointers write entries for the same in BDCP2. So, again the same changes are tracked for Outbound Message type and creates the idoc and post it again.
    This need to be avoided. The requirement is to stop such processing of the data from sending again.
    Any help for this would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Heena

    Hi Heena...
    please check the fields present corresponding to the messagetype "HRMD_A" in trnsaction BD52. keep only the reuired fields and delete the remaining fields in BD52 trnsaction. if any changes happened in the required fields then change pointers will trigger an idoc. So, please check the fields present in BD52 transaction.
    please let me know if you need any clarifications further.
    Regards,
    Lokeswari.

    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 Receiver’s system to the Service Provider’s 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.

    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 we’ll 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.

    NOTE:
    For debugging purposes, use transaction WE05 (IDoc overview) to see check your IDoc status, or to see whether an IDoc was created/
    3. INBOUND PROCESSING
    3.1. Create Function Module
    This function module is called when a message type, of type ZINVRV, comes into the receiving system. This needs to be configured and is dealt with later in this section. The function module is passed the IDoc as a parameter.
    Example parameters
    Import parameters Reference field Opt Y/N
    INPUT_METHOD BDWFAP_PAR-INPUTMETHD N
    MASS_PROCESSING BDWFAP_PAR-MASS_PROC N
    Export Parameters Reference field Opt Y/N

    IDOC_STATUS BDIDOCSTAT
    RETURN_VARIABLES BDWFRETVAR
    SERIALIZATION_INFO BDI_SER
    Exceptions
    WRONG_FUNCTION_CALLED
    Example code
    The code displayed below does the following:
    • populates a BDC table with the IDoc info;
    • calls the transaction via a BDC call; and
    • updates the IDoc status according to the BDC error status.
    EXTRACT FROM: Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
    Declaration of local variables
    DATA: C_SEGNAM(10) TYPE C VALUE 'Z1INVRV'.
    *-Loop through the IDOCs
    LOOP AT IDOC_CONTRL.
    *---Loop through the data for the IDOC
    LOOP AT IDOC_DATA WHERE DOCNUM = IDOC_CONTRL-DOCNUM.
    CASE IDOC_DATA-SEGNAM.
    WHEN C_SEGNAM.
    Here we get the info from the idoc table
    IT_Z1INVRV = IDOC_DATA-SDATA.
    ENDCASE.
    PERFORM REV_INV.
    ENDLOOP.
    PERFORM UPDATE_IDOC_STATUS.
    ENDLOOP.
    FORM REV_INV "Reverse invoice form
    Local variables & constants
    DATA: C_TCODE LIKE BKPF-TCODE VALUE 'VF11'. "BDC transaction code
    Now we can build the bdc table to call the reversal transaction start of screen 109

    CLEAR BDC_TAB.
    BDC_TAB-FNAM = 'BDC_OKCODE'.
    BDC_TAB-FVAL = 'SICH'.
    APPEND BDC_TAB.
    Now we can call transaction 'VF11' with the populated bdc table. The transaction is called inside the idoc-contrl loop, so a transaction will be called for every idoc (journal). the transaction is called in no-display mode ('N') because this code runs in background as it is called by ale. The update is specified to be synchronous ('S') because we have to wait for the result to update the idoc status correctly.
    CALL TRANSACTION C_TCODE USING BDC_TAB MODE 'N' UPDATE 'S'.
    Store the return code for use in another form (status update)
    RETURN_CODE = SY-SUBRC.
    Here we check the return code, if there was an error, we put the transaction in a bdc session for the user to review and correct.

    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,

  • As a abap programmer what is the role in ale/idoc.

    hi guru.
    i am a abap programmer. please tell me<b> what is the role of abap programmer
    in ale/ idoc.</b>
    regards.
    subhasis.

    Hi,
    ALE  is Application Link Enabling.
    ALE
    A means of creating and operating distributed applications.
    Application Link Enabling (ALE) guarantees a distributed, but integrated, R/3 installation. This involves business-controlled message exchange using consistent data across loosely linked SAP applications.
    Applications are integrated using synchronous and asynchronous communication - not by using a central database.
    ALE consists of the following layers:
    Application services
    Distribution services
    Communication services
    Refer
    http://www.sappoint.com/abap/ale.pdf
    http://www.sappoint.com/abap/ale2.pdf
    Check this link ALE and EDI
    ABAP Programmer must know how to create inbound n outbound interfaces to send IDOCs through ALE.
    Please refer to the details mentioned in the hyper-links beow.
    You will get the details how to go about it.
    To see the IDOC & status check it in WE02/WE05
    You will get step by step process.

  • Hi friends need some help in ALE  IDOC !

    For training purpose I am trying to create an IDOC using ALE
    where I am  using the same client as server as well as receiver......So I am using as receiver "NONE" . this is already present in the SM59 under logical systems..
    But i cant create a port for that...as its saying its not compatible with the TRFC "
    Can any one tell me what is the way to create the port ?

    Hi,
    You are new to ALE and IDOCs so I am giving all step by step to do the ALE.
    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.
