IDOC Error Notification - WorkFlow

ALE-IDOC Master Data Distribution
We have a busines requirement to email/notify an agent when an incoming idoc has an error-status. Please let me know how to proceed with this.
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
if you are using the Inbound FM to process the IDoc, then you can very well use the work flow.
after processing the IDoc you will come to know the status of the IDoc .if any errors are there you can generate workflow.

Handle Idoc errors through workflow

How to handle inbound idoc errors through workflow and How to handle outbound idoc errors through workflow
Thanks,
Asha

in transaction SALE go to menu Basic Settings/Perform Automatic Workflow Customizing
then in WE46 you can assign a workflow task to various errors
in partner profiles (WE20) you can assign post processing agent per partner/message type

Handling outbound IDOC errors through workflow TS00007989

Hi,
I want to sent an notification e-mail to external mail box when an outbound idoc has an error status. This needs to be achieved through a workflow template.
I noted that there is a standard task TS00007989 in WE40 which is used for handling outbound idoc errors.
Moreover i couldnt find any trigerring events for the above task.
Can any one help me with a step by step guide for achieving this.
Regards,
Krishnakumar

Hi,
the single step task TS00007989 that you see is NOT TRIGGERED thru' any BO's event. It is created by the std. pgm RSEWFERR. If you go to the wflow log of the witem generated by it, you will see the Creator.
And you can control the activation / deactivation of these single step tasks for various inbound and outbound Error IDOC's thru' Transaction WE46.
If you want, create a single step task of your own and maintain that task here. But, you will ahve to know the exact BO like IDOCORDERS or IDOCEMBMAS etc. or look for events triggered by General IDOC objects like IDOCAPPL.
Hope this helps.

Inbound Idoc error notification. Help needed

Hi Gurus,
Sorry, maybe it's a silly question.
I have a requirement to send an email when occurs any kind of error at inbound processing. The dest. of this mail must be the postprocessing agent from partner profile (WE20) of the message.
I have standard and custom process codes.
I've followed notes 44416 and 11610 but it still doesn't works.
Somebody knows how can I achieve that?
Thanks in advance,
David Gimeno.

Thanks to all, but it still don't works.
J&Y: this report is necessary to process error Idocs? As I understand, notifys an alert message if a max number of error idoc is reached.
I've done the following things:
- Define custom message type (WE81)
- Bind message (custom) with Idoc type (standard) (WE82)
- Define FM with message type (we57)
- Define FM attributes (BD51)
- Define Process. Code (WE42)
- Define Partner profile with my custom Process Code.
I've tried to link my custom process code with an Standard Object (IDOCAPPL and IDOCPACKET) at BD67, but system brings me the message B1405 Application object type is not planned .
I've defined all tasks at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/dc/6b81b943d711d1893e0000e8323c4f/frameset.htm as standard tasks, and I've assigned it to a Org. Structure.
Finally, I enter an Idoc with an error wich brings to Idoc status 51 but I have no error notification. (I've found at SWI1 but no work item is generated).
Does anyone knows what I'm doing wrong, or what else can I do?
Thanks all in advance!!!!

IDOC Error Notification

We have a busines requirement to email/notify an agent when an incoming idoc has an error-status. Please let me know how to proceed with this.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Sam,
Most common IDOCS already have some preconfigured tasks, use transaction SWETYPV. Find the object type (IDOCxxxx) and event INPUTERROROCCURRED. Make sure 'Type linkage active' is on.
In your EDI/ALE partner profile you maintain where these notifications go to under 'Post Processing-Permitted agent' or something equally obscure.

Custom inbound Idoc error handling/ Workflow

Dear Experts,
I have a requirement where in I created a custom inbound idoc, but now i need to handle the errors in the workflow and notify the users thru workflow on an error.
Can some one please provide me a step by step guide on how to create a organizational unit, position and assign users to the position... and any other steps that need to be configured to notify the user on the error.
I'm pretty new to all these organizational uints and workflow related stuff. Any step by step would really be helpful.
Thanks for your time.
-Amit.

Vittal,
1. If your requirement is for a SAP Standard Basic Message type and a Z extension: Then you simply have to find out the 'Standard Task' associated with basic type. You shouldn't worry about extensions. The standard task will be triggered at input error.
2. If your requirement is for a Z basic type i.e. you have created a customer IDOC for a custom processing: There are many dependencies on how you can achieve this. Firstly, you need to know how you're are processing this Z_IDOC. Are you using a standard FM or custom workflow or custom FM? There should be some triggering event within the processing of this Z_IDOC which will raise a certain flag when the error you want to capture happens (or when there is a generic error). You can configure this event in binding objects to trigger a workflow task. If you take a look at any standard tasks, you'll get an idea how the triggering event happens.
Once the workflow task (you can use custom task or use a standard task i.e. by triggering a standard event within the IDOC processing program) is triggered, you can either send it to SAP inbox, e-mail, trigger another processing etc. This is altogether another story.
So bottomline: For custom IDOC processing, you need to trigger an event when error happens. This can be a custom event or a standard event. This event should be linked to a task (custom/standard - check in SWETYPV). Bind all of these in PFTC. Once the task is triggered, you can do whatever you want to do with it.

IDoc Error Processing workflow

Invoices are posted from SRM to ECC as IDocs whose message type is BBPIV. When there is an error in the IDoc input such as invalid IO and GL, invalid company code etc., these IDocs will be moved to status 51.
When IDoc is moved to status 51, work item need to be sent to approvers saying this IDoc has an error and need to be corrected. For this a workflow task needs to be developed.
In our system, there are two types of IDoc invoices sent to ECC. One is of type INVOIC01 and another is of type BBPIV01. There already exists a standard task TS00008057 which is activated for the event INPUTERROROCCURREDMM for IDOCINVOIC object type.
I shouldn't use the same event (INPUTERROROCCURREDMM) and IDoc object type(IDOCINVOIC) for BBPIV01, because responsible agents for both type of invoices are different in our company.
Please help us in getting this resolved. Also let me know if my approach is wrong towards this problem.
Thanks,
Rajesh

Hi Rajesh,
Using the same BOR object and event for two different idoc types is not necessarily wrong. There are ways to differentiate the responsible agents based on the idoc type if needed.
Here is how I would solve this:
Prerequisite: you need to make sure that event IDOCINVOIC.INPUTERROROCCURREDMM is triggered when your BBPIV01 iDoc is in error. To check that, you can activate the event trace and test your idoc (activate with tx SWELS, display with tx SWEL).
If the event does not trigger then you need to find out which event is getting triggered (using the event trace as well).
Now the serious business:
1. Create a copy of standard task TS00008057 that will be used for when BBPIV01 iDocs are in error.
2. Link this task to your event IDOCINVOIC.INPUTERROROCCURREDMM in transaction SWETYPV
3. Check in SWO1 if you have an attribute that gives the idoc type (or anything else which you can use to determine wich workflow should start in each case).
If not you need to create a subtype of IDOCINVOIC and in the subtype create an attribute that returns the iDoc type. Then you would need to delegate IDOCINVOIC to your subtype.
4. Create start conditions (tx SWB_COND) in which you check that TS00008057 starts only when idoctype is INVOIC01 and your new task starts only when idoc type is BBPIV01.
Cheers,
Patrick

This WF Task is calling a Step to check payment, there is a method called.
After this there is a Decision Step, on IDOC Status, if status 51 notify & complete or if no status 51 simply complete workflow.
Please give me solution, it's very urgent
Thanks & Best regards in advance....
Points awarded !!!

Hi,
My Workflow task is like WF90500001. This will be run via IDOC Process Codes (configured in WE42).
I checked SWUD, am getting error "Workflow definition does not exist"
Work Item 12210442, is the Task which calls a Method for checking Payment which has code in Business Object's Method Code itself (not any FM etc....)
This Business object is delegated for IDOCIDCREF and a method CHECKPAYEXT. The method runs fine indipendently.

Inbound Idoc error notification

I created IDoc interfaces for FI, PO, and GR. As permitted agent, I specified a specific user for testing in partner profile. I want to widen the range of permitted agents, so I created a basic org structure (i.e: CoName->EDI Admin, EDI Support). I've assigned a few users to each position. This is where I get fuzzy about next step. Here's my understanding of next step
-> Assign tasks to positions(i.e <msg type>_error)
--> FIDCC1_ERROR for FI
--> WMMBXY_ERROR for GR
--> couldn't find PO tasks PORDCR_ERROR, PORDCH_ERROR
Can I assign a task group for the admnistrator?
Can someone lead me in right direction to fill gaps?
Thanks

Hi,
If each partner profile (or each message level within one partner profile) is to be assigned to a separate group of users, you can assign the respective positions (with the group of users included in the position) in the partner profile itself. (Instead of 'user' choose 'position' and specify the position you have created, in the partner profile settings where you are specifying users now). You can do it at the partner profile level, or at the individual inbound message level in the partner profile (Post processing agents in the detail settings screen for the inbound message - specify your 'position' there).
If this is not a one to one (by one I mean a position and not a single user) assignment, you will need to assign agents at the task level.
You can see all the standard tasks in SWE2 for example. Choose your business object (eg BUS2032 for purchase order) and corresponding task there. You can assign agents to these standard task in PFTC. For example, if a PO failed, task TS00008097 (in PFTC) which is based on errors encountered when creating a PO, will be triggered and the corresponding IDOCs can go to the assigned agents.
You have to note that the agents who receive the workitem is a intersection of these two assignments. So, let us say if you have assigned EDI_PO_SUPPORT at the task level, and CCD_PO_SUPPORT at the partner profile level, then the users common in these two positions will only get the workitem.
I have not looked into 'assign tasks to positions' as I have no experience in that. However, using the above, you can just create positions with users (do not bother about assigning these positions to any task), and assign that directly either at partner profile level or at task level, nothing else is required.
Hope this helps,
cheers,
Ajay

Workflow for Idoc errors

Hi,
I am new to workflow, I got a requirement for idoc error handling in workflow.
If the idocs fail a notification needs to be sent to an appropriate personnel. If it fails due to configuration or technical issue then the notification needs to go to the tech personnel ( A distribution list ) . If it is a data error then notification needs to go to functional personnel ( distribution list ).
Here i have created a WF using Object IDOCAPPL. Please let me know how i can handle this condition and want some document on orginization structure.
I have refered to documents in Saptechinical and Sdn.Plz let me have some other ideas and documents.
thanks
Arun.

You can create a custom rule and inside that you can have your own condition and populate the users accordingly.
Distribution list..you can create in SBWP itself.

IDOC errors Notify thru Workflow

Hello Experts,
I want to report an error notification; if an Idoc fails. What are the steps for this Configuration?
Also if I want to sent some notification on success/fail status of Idoc, how do I configure workflow for the same. What are the steps involved here? Please provide your expert guidence.
Rewards for sure
Thank you.
Regards,
Vishal
Message was edited by: Vishal Tyagi

Hi Vishal,
      You can use Bussiness Object (IDOC* and F4) and the event available to trigger the work flow from which you can then send a mail to the concerned person.
      If you need to do this through any program then get all the error IDOC from EDIDS table and can send a mail through 'SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'. Then you can schedule this program periodically which will be sending a mail.
      But both differs, if you need to notify whenever the an IDOC is created then you have to go for WOrkflow or if it enough if you report on DAily or hourly basis then you can use the second option.
      Hope this might have helped you.
Thanks,

Idoc Error Handling through workflow

Hi all,
I want to send the Error Notification for a particular person for whom the task orders is assigned in the organization chart.
What all the things I need to do.
I have created the org chart and I have assigned the task to a user under a position.
I have linked the Idoc error event in Tcode SWETYPV .
What all the things I am supposed to do.
Regards
Kumar

Please go to transction WE20, pick the Partner / Idoc that you would like to assign the Org. chart to.
Then you should configure "post processing :permitted agent" Tab with the Organizational unit.
Then double click the process code associated with the Idoc Type and click the button next to the Function Module associated with this process code.
Check IDoc Tab and see if Stanard Event INPUTERROROCCURRED is present in the field called start event.

RBDMANI2 Idoc Reprocessing IDOC Failure Notification

Hi SAP Friends,
I developed an inbound interface for LIV electronic invoice(MIRO) with basic type INVOIC02. At present everything going smooth.
i scheduled a background job with the program RBDMANI2 to reprocess the failed IDOCS. i.e if any failed idocs required SAP side changes, users will complete the changes. Then the scheduled job will process the failed IDOC.
IDOC will process if corrected data is satisfying else IDOC will fail again with Status 51.
Now the failed IDOC notification we are not getting any notfication.
If IDOC is failing first time idoc failure notification will come. At that point Object Type IDOCINVOIC & Event INPUTERROROCCURREDMM is triggering.
When i am reprocessing through the scheduled job of program RBDMANI2 , i am not getting any failed notification.
Can anyone help me out where i am missing the event. i need to activate any other event linkage for the reprocessing.
I tried with SWELS, i did not get any event when i execting the program RBDMANI2.
Appreciate your help and valuable inputs.
Thanks & Regards,
Srinivas Bhavanam

Srinivas, per my understanding the failure event is only triggered once. You can attest this yourself by executing the associated workflow. If you select the process option and all errors were not addressed, the current work item remains active ; eventually the error message will be changed in case the IDOC is now failing for another reason. There is only one workflow instance for the same IDOC ; the failed batch processing does not generate any new workflow or IDOCs, it only updates the current instances (workflow) and add an entry to the IDOC status table (EDIDS)
