sandeep,
Creation of 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

Error with Custom Idoc

Hi All,
I have created a custom idoc for creation of master data in the system. This custom idoc is using a custom function module to process the idocs. In the FM i have used Call transaction method to upload the master data in the sap system. Everything seems to be working fine.
But the problem is that whenever any external system creates more than one idoc, first idoc is posted successfully while others fail with an error message "No status record was passed to ALE by the application.". Please let us know how we can resolve it.
Correct Answers will be rewarded.

Creation of Custom IDoc with Message control for sales Order

Hi all,
I am trying to create custom Outbound IDoc with message control.
I wrote the code in a function module and i want to register that function module. (as in inbound registration of function module as in BD51).I am not knowing if that registration is necessary for outbound Idoc, if so in which transacition?
Please list me the steps to create a custom IDoc for Message control.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
John.

Hi,
You need to use FM : MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE to create outbound idoc.fill the data in the tables EDIDC,EDIDD and generate the IDOC.
check this link:
Re: Master_IDoc_Distribute
and use transaction : WEDI for IDOC configurations.
here you will have all the transactions(step by step) to set the outbound IDOC configurations.

Regarding Creation of Custom IDOC

Hi,
This is Abdullah Shaik. I want to create an IDOC from the existing IDOC. Some times I need to add some segments to the existing IDOC. Can anybody plz let me know the process how to create the Customized IDOC from the Standard IDOC?
Thanks & Regards,
Abdullah shaik.

Hi Abdullah,
There are basically two types of IDOCs:-
Basic IDOCs and Extended IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
Creation of 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

Custom process code and FM for custom IDoc...

Hello Experts,
I created a custom IDoc based from ARTMAS05 IDoc. This is because we only need 3 segments and
the standard idoc(Artmas05) contains so many segments that we need.
Now, will I create a custom process code and FM for this? how do I go about this?
Thank you guys and take care!

Hello,
Here are the Steps that we need to be following while creating a Custom Process Code with Custom Function Module. ( Since the Segments to be handled are very Less, I am recommending that you go for a Custom Function Module).
1. Go to SE37 Create a Function Module. Please ensure to Create it with the IMPORT / EXPORT /TABLES parameters exactly in the way that they exist in any Standard SAP Inbound FM (Refer to IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS for example).
2. Once our FM is Ready (Need not be Complete with the Code to go ahead with the Process Code Creation) and Active, the next Step is to Create an Entry in the Transaction Code BD51 where we will register the Function Module.
3. Next, we'll have to go to T-Code WE57 where we'll have to make an entry for the Function Module with the IDoc Type & Message Type.
4. Finally, go to WE42 and Create a New Process Code and assign the Function Module and the Message Type.
NOTE 1 : The Process Code is, as we know, Client Dependent. So, once you create a Process Code, we need to have it migrated to the Testing Environment to Start & Carry Out Testing.
NOTE 2: If Step 2 & 3 are missing, then we'll not be able to assign the Function Module in WE42 while Creating Process Code.
Hope it was helpful.
Thanks and Regards,

Custom idoc segment fields not populated

Way back in 1999 someone create a custom Idoc type with custom Idoc segments in it. Unfortunately, they forgot to release one of the segments.
Recently a change was request to add new fields to this custom segment. In order to get the fields transported the segment had to be released.
All worked fine in Dev and the new Idoc segments were populated as expected. However when the idoc segment was moved to the test system all visually appears to be fine but when the idoc is created (status 50) the new fields are not popultated.
In 40B the start of the inbound process was IDOC_INBOUND_DATA. Does anyone know what the new starting point is in 4.7??
I beleive the error is actually that SData is not reading all the input values and stopping right where the old fields end in teh custom segment.
Thanks,
Anthony

additionally,
SAP will not allow us to release the basic idoc type because it was released in 40B. It also will not allow us to cancel the release since we are now in 620. So, unless anyone has input for this I think the only solution will be to create a successor IDoc type and change our apps to use the new IDoc type with it's enhancements.

Custom Idoc-segments

Hi,
I am working on inbound processing of idocs. The issue is to post production confirmations into SAP using idocs sent by the middleware. I have to create a custom idoc for this purpose. I know the steps for creating a custom idoc type and message type.
The problem is that the number of segments of each idoc sent by the middleware is not fixed. They wanted the idoc to be setup in such a way that each time they send an idoc they want segments repeated based on the entries in the flat file.
Please help me out.Thanks

HI,
For this i have a solution.
you can make two segments one is header and other is item.
in Header segment only setno field ocours. and in item segment all three fields will be there. like this.
HEADER INFORMATION:
1
ITEM INFORMATION:
1 a i
1 b o
i c o
Now you fill your each idoc for each setno. and distribute it. and in receving system you will got a IDOC for each SETNO. Then you can loop in header segment and find all its items from item segment.

HRA

Custom idoc [ related to function module]

HI ALL,
sorry for repeating the question
i had an requirement to create a custom idoc for catsdb table with 4 fields
1. pernr
2. workdate
3. lstar ......
and to transfer it from one application server to another.i had created it n transfered it to another application server. now my problem is in receiver side the data in idoc is not posted into database of catsdb [ at receiver side].
can any one give the code for Custom function module at receiver side so that when idoc is received [from sender] it must be updated to databse tables via this FM.
its very urgent . help me ........................
any suggestions are highly appreciated.
with regards,
Suresh Aluri.

Hi Suresh,
In the receiver system you have to :
1. Create a process code and link with message type using WE42
2. Create an inbound function module using SE37.
For example: BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1
3. Link function module with basic type and message type using WE57

        3. Activity Type
        4. Counter
   I created a custom idoc and had successfully send to receiver. now that idoc should be updated into databse tables. here my problem is how to create a function module which should take care of updating data into database table at receiver side and also when i checked using WE02 at receiver side its showing an error 'Function module not allowed: IDOC_INPUT_STATUS' . for creating a process code i used IDOC_INPUT_STATUS function module at receiver side.
is there any fm that automatically takes data and updates into databse table ctasdb at receiver side or if u want to create a custom Fm how to do it.
any help will be highly appreciated.
with regards,
Suresh.A

Hi,
So for creating a process code you used IDOC_INPUT_STATUS function module at receiver side. whats that?
Process code is created using tcode: we42 isn't it?
What did you do please tell me.
