Development of custom IDOC's

Hi All,
Can we go for approach of developing custom IDOC's? where in our scenarios are getting files from thrid party and updating data in file into ECC.
Approach towards Custom IDOC's is for error monitoring and recprocessing.
Would request your inputs and suggesions in this regard.
Is that good approach for going to custom idocs? if not why?
Thanks,
chandra.

Hi,
SAP R/3 systems send out data through IDoc (Intermediate Document), which in internally has segments and fields containing the data. But sometimes, these fields are not sufficient for a specific end-to-end business scenario as far as data transfer is concerned. So in such scenario, either few fields are to be added or subtracted, or completely new structure- IDoc needs to be created.
At times because of the business scenario we do have to create Custom idocs .

Bhanu

Devloping the Custom IDoc - Integration sceanarios with Peoplesoft

HI All,
We are on mySAP ERP 2005 with SAP HR on the same instance box, PI 7.0 on other instance, and need to integrate for getting the employee data from Peoplesoft into SAP HR.
I suspect that, this requirement can be fullfilled via Custom Idoc. Correct if I am wrong. plz...need ur expertise inputs for the same.
In SAP HR we are having some Infotypes. While developing the custome Idoc, each Infotype should be added as a segment.
We are having the Standard Idoc for SAP HRMS is HRMD_A.HRMD_A06.
In this case how to develop the custom Idoc to include all Infotypes?
Should I write the code to insert the dato from that Idoc to tables.
Please suggest me the procedure.
Regards
Sridhar Goli

And you said they are sening IDOC_XML to you through http, then how it is having namespace, it should be plain Idoc_xml
like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ORDERS05>
- <IDOC BEGIN="1">
- <EDI_DC40 SEGMENT="1">
<TABNAM>EDI_DC40</TABNAM>
Can you explain or give the format to better understand.

Hi Vipin
Here are the for Inbound IDOC Configuration:
1.     Link Message Type to Function Module (WE57) Client independent
2.     Define FM settings (BD51) Client independent
3.     Maintain process codes (WE42) Client dependent
4     Create inbound partner profile

Custom IDOC to create XML file

Hi,
We are on 4.7 release.
A custom outbound IDOC type is developed to creates a text file at the location entered in FILE type port.
Now we want to create XML file intead of text file. Is it possible by simply changing the port to XML FILE port? Or do we need to do any modifications inside the FMs for the IDOC?
Similarly for Inbound scenario (using custom IDOC type), do we need any chagnes in FMs to handle IDOCS in XML file format?
Thanks.

You can even do that conversion of idoc to xml by simple method
create a xml port and use the standard fm there
and it wud handle that.

Customized IDOC Issue

Hi,
Upto now we worked on standard IDOC's. so no issues upto now.
Now we are dealing with the customized idoc's. we have one standard idoc in R/3 200 client an we customized that idoc according to our requirement.
Now we transfered and released that IDOC from 200 client to 300 client for XI use.
When we are trying to Import the IDOC into IR we are unable to see that Z IDOC( Customized) in the IDOC list.
We have provided the SAP R/3 300 client user logon details only.
What may be the Issue
Regards
Suman

Need help to develop a custom connector

I need some help on developing the custom connector to Homegrown application and the version i am using is OIM9.0.3
First of all what are the steps do we need to care while developing a custom connector.
I can't able to find the process in google to develop the custom connector.
If you have any data regarding the development of custom connector, plz share to me....
What are the thing do we need to take care while developing the connector.
I referred in OIM9.1 version there was an option to develop the Custom connector by using Genric technology, can we create the custom connector by using the GTC feature in OIM 9.1
early response will be appreciated

The docs for the new GTC framework are here: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10391_01/doc.910/e10360/about.htm#Toc153968019. GTC is useful if you target application exposes standards-based SPML (Service Provisioning Markup Language) user management interfaces, although it sounds like this isn't the case for you.
You will most likely need to go the traditional route in terms of connector development, which involves building OIM Process Task Adapters to invoke the application API's (I assume they're Java?) and invoking those adapters from within an OIM Provisioning Process.

After creating successor to a custom IDOC?

Hello
We have a custom IDOC type (for sales orders) in the system. Now business want to pass additional data, as per this requirement am trying to add a new custom segment to this custom IDOC, but am getting the below error,
ZORDR03 has already been released, only display possible
Message no. E0639
Diagnosis
ZORDR03 has already been released. This means that the basic type or extension is locked
against changes and can only be displayed.
Procedure
You can create a successor based on ZORDR03.
I guess, i can not do CANCEL RELEASE from Memu-->Edit! because this custom IDOC is created in older versions, like 46C, currently we are on ECC6.0, hence i need to create a successor, but pls. let me now
1) Do I need to change all the config settings like in WE72, WE82, WE20 O/B Prtaner profiles of EDP13?
2) In what/where else i need to change or replace old ZORDR03 with newley creating ZORDR04?
Thank you

You need to be patient - this is not a Helpdesk where you've raised a high priority ticket...
I'll just say that when we upgraded to ERP6.0, I did not agree with the fact that we could not cancel release on our custom IDOCs and we did not want to create a new version (it's been too long - I don't remember the technical reason for the issue with the new version). We reset the release in the definition table and made the required changes. There were no issues with the change. If you want o go with the 'standard' appraoch, create a new version...

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.

Please list me the steps to create a custom IDoc for Message control.

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.

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
Go to Edit -> Set Release

PROBLEM IN CUSTOM IDOC CREATION

Hi Friends,
                I'm facing a problem in custom idoc creation plz try to assist me
1.As per the information i have i'm creating segment in we31
for cremas01 idoc.But when i enter the name for segment i'm getting message "Name range Voilation particular name which i had given is not permitted in customer system?
Plz clarify this,and are there any formalities which i should look for before creating custom idoc?
Good answers will be rewarded.
                                                                          Regards,

The Problem might be.... with the naming of the segment.
Standard segments should be created with 'E1' and all the custom segments are created using 'Z1' and the name with 8 characters long only is permitted.

Propose Custom Idoc, output type issue

Dear Experts,
I want to populate a custom idoc(Idoc already existing) by proposing the output type in the purchase order for which I created a output type and made an entry in Application 'EF' (NACE),
Also created a process code thru we41 and assigned both of these in the outbound parameters of the partner profile.
But for some reason I'm getting an error while propsing and saving the purchase order, Is there a way that I can identify why the error occurred.
Or can some one shed some light if I need to do any extra configuration if I'm playing with a custom Idoc.
Thanks for all
-Amit

Vinod,
I did all the partner profile configurationand maintanied message control too, While saving I'm not getting any error, but after saving, if I go back to the output type and see the output is in Red coulor (Indicating failure), I'm not sure how to check where the error occured.
Thanks
