BDC return message table problem

Question

Dear All
We are doing BDCs for Excise Invoice (J1IS) and for Posting Excise
Invoice (J1IV) in Backgroung mode.
Here we are facing problem in BDC return message table (messtab) which
retruns the internal document number,errors or warning messages
in BDC rerurn message table.when we are doing BDC for J1IS in background
mode, no internal document number or error messages is generated in
BDC message table (ie in messtab), but the excise invoice is posted and database table
j_1iexchdr is updated with internal document number even though Accessible
value is '0'.Then we are taking this internal document nuber from databae
table j_1iexchdr passing to next BDC for J1Iv.Again after execution of BDC for J1IV
in background mode the same is happening as J1IS BDC return message table.
Is it the correct method of data retrieving from Database table ?
and we want to capture all types of error messages and internal document
no generated by BDC message table.How to capture BDC return messages.
Does Transactions J1Is and J1IV are executable for BDC ?
Thanks and Regards,
Ulhas

Hi
Use the following code to capture the return table values.
data: i_msg type standard table of bdcmsgcoll with header line.
LOOP AT I_MSG.
    CALL FUNCTION 'FORMAT_MESSAGE'
     EXPORTING
       ID              = I_MSG-MSGID
       LANG            = SY-LANGU
       NO              = I_MSG-MSGNR
       V1              = I_MSG-MSGV1
       V2              = I_MSG-MSGV2
       V3              = I_MSG-MSGV3
       V4              = I_MSG-MSGV4
     IMPORTING
       MSG             = W_STR
*  EXCEPTIONS
*    NOT_FOUND       = 1
*    OTHERS          = 2
    IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
* MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
*         WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ENDIF.
    WRITE:/ i_msg-msgnr,w_str.
  endloop.
