IDOC Creation-ERROR

Hi All,
I am using a zprogram to create a an IDOC Using 'Master_Idoc_Outbound'.Here i am not using any user exist such that,but when i am executing the program i facing an error 26. that is Syntax Error in IDoc(mandatory group Missing).
I have seen the blogs those are releated to the same error.but that doesn't match my problem.So I need your suggestion and inputs to over come this patch.
thanks,
Swathi.k

Hi Swathi,
When you have created a custom segment you would have added that as a child segment to a standard and you might have put that custom segment as mandatory in the WE30 transaction.
And if there is no data for the standard segment then your child segment will not be populated even though the code is written in the userexit and as your custom segment is a mandatory segment in the IDOC definition it will throw the IDOC into 26 status.
I have given you the explanation on the assumption that your custom segment is a mandatory segment in the IDOC, correct if I am wrong. Tell me what was the function module you have used to created that IDOC.
Thanks,
Mahesh.

IHC errors :valid clearing partner not found and no header details found while idoc creation after f110
Please let me know where the config is missing for ihc automatic payment program.in we02 status is not 53.
Please help

Hi
Please share the error message in the IDOC.
If the error message is IHC204 "No valid clearing partner was found", it may be due to the missing correct configuration in Set Up Creation of Payment Requests for Inbound IDoc in FI, which links the clearing partner, ALE logical system partner type and IHC account number.

IDOC creation after the creation of a purchase order

Hi everybody,
            I want some configuration details regardign IDOC creation. The requirement is, once i create a purchase order in one system, the details should automatciaclly transfer to other system through IDOC. could any one suggest any document or detailed procedure to accomplish the task. Thanks in advance,
         Santosh.

hi santosh kumar,
Creating an IDoc Segment WE31:
The segment defines the structure of the records in an IDoc. They are defined with transaction WE31.
We will define a structure to send a text from the text database.
Transaction WE31 calls the IDoc segment editor. The editor defines the fields of a
single segment structure. The thus defined IDoc segment is then created as a data
dictionary structure. You can view the created structure with SE11 and use it in an
ABAP as any TABLES declaration.
To demonstrate the use of the IDoc segment editor we will set up an example, which
allows you to send a single text from the text pool (tables STXH and STXL) as an
IDoc. These are the texts that you can see with SO10 or edit from within many
applications.
We will show the steps to define an IDoc segment YAXX_THEAD with the DDic
structure of THEAD.
To facilitate our work, we will use the "copy-from-template-tool", which reads the
definition of a DDIC structure and inserts the field and the matching definitions as
rows in the IDoc editor. You could, of course, define the structure completely
manually, but using the template makes it easier.
The tool in release 4.0b lets you use both DDIC structures or another IDoc segment
definition as a template.
The thus created structure can be edited any time. When saving, it will create a data
dictionary structure based on the definition in WE31. The DDIC structure will retain
the same name. You can view the structure as a table definition with SE11 and use it
in an ABAP the same way.
Defining the Message Type (EDMSG)
The message type defines the context under which an IDoc is transferred to its destination. It allows for using the same IDoc file format for several different applications.
Imagine the situation of sending a purchase order to a supplier. When the IDoc with
the purchase order reaches the supplier, it will be interpreted as a sales order
received from a customer, namely you.
Simultaneously you want to send the IDoc data to the supplier's warehouse to inform
it that a purchase order has been issued and is on the way.
Both IDoc receivers will receive the same IDoc format; however, the IDoc will be
tagged with a different message type. While the IDoc to the supplier will be flagged
as a purchase order (in SAP R/3 standard: message type = ORDERS), the same IDoc
sent to the warehouse should be flagged differently, so that the warehouse can
recognize the order as a mere informational copy and process it differently than a
true purchase order.
The message type together with the IDoc type determine the processing function.
The message types are stored in table EDMSG.
Defining the message type can be done from the transaction WEDI
EDMSG: Defining the message type (1)
The entry is only a base entry which tells the system that the message type is
allowed. Other transactions will use that table as a check table to validate the entry.
IT is as shown .
EDMSG: Defining the message type (1):
The entry is only a base entry which tells the system that the message type is
allowed. Other transactions will use that table as a check table to validate the entry.
Sales Orders are being created through inbound IDocs using FM 'EDI_DATA_INCOMING'. Now a Report is required to check the status of these Inbound IDocs along with Sales Orders generated against customer Purchase Orders.
Requirement:
Sales Orders are being created through inbound IDocs using FM 'EDI_DATA_INCOMING'. Now a Report is required to check the status of these Inbound IDocs along with Sales Orders generated against customer Purchase Orders.
Processing:
The report selects, 'ORDERS' IDoc numbers & status, generated between given time range, from table EDIDC. Further, it calls Function Module 'IDOC_READ_COMPLETELY' to get the IDoc details. Then required information is extracted by reading relevant field data of IDoc segments.

IDOCs creation - Transfer Orders(TOs) for Deliveries - Basic doubts, thanq

Hi Experts,
Am new to IDOCs. I hv a requirement, so, request u that, Can I get some Wht to do tips from u?
My doubts:
1- I hv been asked to create IDOC, Wht does it mean?
2 - How the created IDOC will be get posted?
My requirement is:
Original inbound idoc sent from Gentran will update the delivery with all serial numbers per material for all serialized product. The message code will be the indicator that a Transfer Order-TO, idoc must be created for TO confirmation.
I need to do===>   Should be executed only when the message code on the delivery idoc is u201CTOCu201D. Look up the warehouse code on the delivery header using the delivery nbr in the delivery idoc. Create a new TO confirm idoc per delivery idoc being processed. Create a line item on this idoc for every line on the delivery idoc. Each TO line includes the delivery number and delivery item number so the TO number and line number can be looked up in table LTAP by using the delivery number and line item number found on the delivery idoc. There will be at 2 transfer orders for each delivery item b/c of the 2 step pick process, so select the TO nbr that has 916 as the destination storage type (LTAP-NLTYP). There may be more than 1 pair of TOs per delivery item so this must be completed for each TO found relevant to each delivery item.
The inbound delvry03 idoc will update the delivery with the serial numbers as part of the standard functionality. Since the transfer order must also be confirmed with the quantities on the inbound idoc, an additional idoc must be created from within the delivery update process. The transfer order can be updated and confirmed using the standard idoc and function module which should be created and initiated from the delivery update function module customer exit.
Source = DELVRY03     Destination = WMTCID01
Record Name-Field Name-Record Name-Field Name-Description---Comments
E1EDL20     VBELN-E1LTCOH-LGNUM-Warehouse Number-Look w/ idoc delivery nbr
E1EDL20     VBELN-E1LTCOH-TANUM-Transfer Order Number- Look w/ idoc delivery nbr
E1EDL24     POSNR-E1LTCOI-TAPOS-Transfer Order Line Item- Look w/ idoc delivery line nbr
EVERY THING IS DATA TRIGGERED!!!

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.

Change pointers and Idoc creation

Hello,
I would like to create change pointers for any changes regarding one of our customer infotypes: 9002 (hrp9002)
I was able to do that, however, I'm struggeling with the details.
The problem is that I do not want to send any data related to infotype 9002. I just need this change pointer to trigger idoc creation for the related objects.
Example: Let's assume that infotype 9002 gets created for position S 40001234. Once a night a customer report is executed via a job which reads all unprocessed change pointers (including the one mentioned above) and sends the corresponding object. In this case, an Idoc for the holder of position 40001234 should be created WITHOUT data for infotype 9002.
The message type is HRMD_A.
What do I need to do?
Thank you for your input.

Hi,
For Info type 9002 we need to implement Badi HRALE00CHANGE_PTRS using below code.
   LOOP AT t_changed_objects INTO   wa_changed_objects .
    CASE wa_changed_objects-infty.
      WHEN '9002'.
        wa_cp_data-tabname = 'HROBJINFTY'.
        wa_changed_objects-plvar = '01' .
        wa_cp_data-tabkey = wa_changed_objects .
        wa_cp_data-cdchgid = 'U'.
* wa_cp_data-CDOBJCL = 'HRMD_A'.
        APPEND wa_cp_data TO t_cp_data1 .
    ENDCASE.
ENDLOOP.
IF t_cp_data1 IS NOT INITIAL .
    CALL FUNCTION 'CHANGE_POINTERS_CREATE_DIRECT'
      EXPORTING
        message_type          = 'HRMD_A'
      TABLES
        t_cp_data             = t_cp_data1
      EXCEPTIONS
        number_range_problems = 1
        OTHERS                = 2.
    IF sy-subrc <> 0.
* Implement suitable error handling here
    ENDIF.
ENDIF.
This code will create entry in BDCP2 table.
After thsi populating segemnet you need to code for below exit as .
EXIT_SAPLRHAL_003
   IF PNNNN_NAME = 'P9002' .
*FIELD-SYMBOLS: <FS_plog> TYPE ANY.   "Field Symbol for dynamic filling of data based on the structure
*Clearing the SUBRC
CLEAR SUBRC.
* fill workarea for infotype with infotype-data
ASSIGN pnnnn_data TO <FS_plog> CASTING TYPE P9002.
LS_9002 = <FS_plog>.
* move fields
MOVE-CORRESPONDING LS_9002 TO LS_p9002.
* fill IDoc-data with workarea for segmenttype
ASSIGN sdata_data TO <FS_plog> CASTING TYPE Z1P9002.
<FS_plog> = LS_P9002.
CONVERTED = ZCDP_IF_CONSTANTS_DTIRIS=>GC_CROSS .
ENDIF.
It will work fine.
Thanks

Steps for ale idoc creation?

Hi,
I want the complete process of ale idoc generation.
my maild id is [email protected]
Thank You.
From:
Mohammed Moid Ahmed

Hi
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)

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.

Idoc syntx error me21 , abap proxy call transaction

Hi Experts,
I am struck with the below problem, could you please shed some light on the issue, appreciate your help and rewarded.
scenario:
XI sends NEW PO message to abap proxy, in abap proxy we populate bdc_tab
and call ME21 as below
CALL TRANSACTION 'ME21' using bdc_tab mode 'N' update 'S' messages into messtab.
problem:
EKSEKS01 idoc is getting created with syntax error status code :26 in ECC5.0
only 5 sigments are generated in the idocs. the three segments ( E1PISHO, E1PISIO,E1PISSO not generated).
after transaction executed it returns subrc 1001, msgid--> ME, MSGNO --> 218.
Thanks In Advance.
Ranjit.

Hi Atish and Nishant,
Thanks much for the immediate response.
1.Would like to know what is the mandatory data to be passed for PO creation in BDC table.
2. Is there any user exit or where the idoc creation happens during me21 execution.
I have verified the po in we02 , as before mentioned the three sigments are not getting created and i am not sure the reason.
Note: We didnot have any output configured in ECC 5.0 for this idoc to be created.
I am really not able to locate in debug mode FOR ME21, where this ekseks01 idoc getting created and triggered.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks in Advance.
Ranjit.

ME23N restrict IDOC creation and keep traffic light yellow

Hi,
I have a requirement in which I need to restrict the EDI IDOC if there are errors in the PO. Also as the IDOC is not created the messages (type NEU) should remain with the yellow traffic light as the IDOC is not processed. What would be the best approach to keep the traffic light yellow , I have identified the point to restrict IDOC creation but the traffic light is set to red.
Thanks,
Esha

Hello Esha,
I have identified the point tojavascript:; restrict IDOC creation but the traffic light is set to red.
Yellow light in Output type shows its Not Processed. If you are talking about exits EXIT_SAPLEINM_002/EXIT_SAPLEINM_011 they come into picture when Output type processing started. So ultimately they will have either Success/Error status.
Even by setting sy-msgty = 'W' in EXIT_SAPLEINM_002 and raising exception will not help.
You can play around with FMs mentioned in group WMCP and can check.

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)

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.

SAP ALE & IDOC<<<<
Steps to configuration(Basis) >>
1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client
2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers
3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)
4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)
5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)
6. Generate partner profiles for sending system
The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)
Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);
Add appropriate message types and filters to the CDM;
Generate outbound partner profiles;
Distribute the CDM to the receiving systems; and
Generate inbound partner profiles on each of the clients.
Steps to customize a new IDoc >>>
1. Define IDoc Segment (WE31)
2. Convert Segments into an IDoc type (WE30)
3. Create a Message Type (WE81)
4. Create valid Combination of Message & IDoc type(WE82)
5. Define Processing Code(WE41 for OUT / WE42 for IN)
6. Define Partner Profile(WE20)
Important Transaction Codes:
SALE - IMG ALE Configuration root
WE20 - Manually maintain partner profiles
BD64 - Maintain customer distribution model
BD71 - Distribute customer distribution model
SM59 - Create RFC Destinations
BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)
BD82 - Generate Partner Profiles
BD61 - Activate Change Pointers - Globally
BD50 - Activate Change Pointer for Msg Type
BD52 - Activate change pointer per change.doc object
BD59 - Allocation object type -> IDOC type
BD56 - Maintain IDOC Segment Filters
BD53 - Reduction of Message Types
BD21 - Select Change Pointer
BD87 - Status Monitor for ALE Messages
BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)
BD62 - Define rules
BD79 - Maintain rules
BD55 - Defining settings for IDoc conversion
WEDI - ALE IDoc Administration
WE21 - Ports in Idoc processing
WE60 - IDoc documentation
SARA - IDoc archiving (Object type IDOC)
WE47 - IDoc status maintenance
WE07 - IDoc statistics

WE05 - IDoc overview
BD87 - Inbound IDoc reprocessing
BD88 - Outbound IDoc reprocessing
BDM2 - IDoc Trace
BDM7 - IDoc Audit Analysis
BD21 - Create IDocs from change pointers
SM58 - Schedule RFC Failures
Basic config for Distributed data:
BD64: Maintain a Distributed Model
BD82: Generate Partner Profile
BD64: Distribute the distribution Model
Programs
RBDMIDOC Creating IDoc Type from Change Pointers
RSEOUT00 Process all selected IDocs (EDI)
RBDAPP01 - Inbound Processing of IDocs Ready for Transfer
RSARFCEX - Execute Calls Not Yet Executed
RBDMOIND - Status Conversion with Successful tRFC Execution

Issues in IDoc Sender Scenario:IDoc with errors added

Hi all
Am working on an IDoc to JDBC scenario. In R/3 system, I have created distribution model, partner profile, RFC destination and port.The IDoc is generated and is sent to XI successfully. But in XI , there is no entry in SXI_MONITOR for this (unfortunately IDX5 is not available in the XI server! ;as of now). Instead an entry is made in WE05 and WE02 with stautus 56(IDoc with errors added). In the status record:
status 56 : External segment name E2KOMG003 cannot be interpreted
status 60 : Basic IDoc type COND_A03 could not be found.
And the segments displayed in data record are different from the segments in the data record of the IDoc generated at R/3. (say for E1KOMG at R/3, E2KOMG003 in XI).Earlier the flow was working fine and the DB table was updated successfully. And the entire stuff is believed to be 'unmodified' .
Would any one help in resolving the issue.
Thanks,
Chilanka

Hi,
>>>>I have created partenr profile in R/3.Need I create a partner profile in XI for R/3 system?
no you cannot create any partner profiles in XI

Download Helper, even with paid converter upgrade, gives "Invalid Capture File" errors and will not record audio, with "File Creation Error - Unable to rename/copy audio file" Error.

Download Helper Screen Capture worked to capture video if the default "no audio" option is active. But, no audio. The "speakers" or "microphone" audio options are confusing....the audio to be captured is from the video, so what do you choose? With either "speakers" or "microphone" selected, the captured file has poor audio and no video. Re-capture efforts (speakers) get "Invalid capture file error" and "File Creation error- Unable to rename/copy audio file"
The paid upgrade of "Converter" doesn't work.
Instructive documentation - not very good.
Suggestions - Need time delay between initiation of "Record" and starting the video to be recorded.
Could use timer tracking of the record process.
Are there operating system limitations? (Have Windows XP Pro)

That is an issue for the developer of that Download Helper.

IDOC Syntax Error E0072 with status 26 after upgrade to ECC6.0

Hi
We have upgraded SAP R/3 from 4.6C to ECC6.0. After upgrade, when we create PO and output EDI, we are seeing this IDOC syntax error E0072 for Mandatory Segment E1EDK01. In 4.6C it was working fine with no issues, only after upgrade this problem started. It says E1EDK01 is missing which is mandatory. We are using basic type ORDERS01 with no extensions. When we see WE30 it looks fine, WE20 settings looks fine.
Order of the segments got scrambled in upgraded version. First segment is E1EDP19001, this is supposed to be under E1EDP01 segment. There are two E1EDP19001 segments created but there were no sub segments to E1EDP01.
Any help in this regard is highly appreciated.
Thanks
Pandiri

Problem in Idoc creation in ME22N

Hi All,
We are facing a problem in Idoc creation in transaction ME22N.Our requirement is to trigger an output type and create a idoc everytime a change is made to a particular Purchase Order.
Presently however,for some vendors,when we change the plant at the item level,an Idoc is not created(with a message that the changes are not relevant to create an Idoc).Any other change to the Purchase Order like changes in quantity or price,results in successful Idoc creation.
We have also noticed that this happens only in the case of certain vendors.The Customer Info records and vendor data are all believed to be fine.
Are any other config settings required to be maintained for this?
Thanks in advance!
Regards,
Nejuma Iqbal

Hi Nejuma,
I don't think there is any problem with cofiguration settings.u r getting the idocs for some vendors .
if iam not wrong u r giving LS in the tcode(we20).The method which u r using is change pointers.As u r using standard idoc all the settings will be done.
Only settings u have to do is
1>generate partner profiles(WE20)
2>Distribute model view(BD64).
REGARDS,
Nagaraj

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,
                                                                           Vinod.

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.
Reward Points if useful.
