IDoc Inbound Processing for CREMDM & DEBMDM

Hi experts,
I'd like to gather some feedback from you regarding the topic ERP IDoc Inbound Processing for CREMDM & DEBMDM. As you all know, there's currently no option to directly process CREMDM/DEBMDM IDocs in ERP. Currently you have to use PI for splitting the CREMDM/DEBMDM message into its related ADRMAS and CREMAS/DEBMAS IDocs.
My areas of interest are:
1) How satisfied are you with the current situation? Does the split work? Are there issues or problems in the current message handling? What are the Pro's and Con's from your point of view?
2) What would be the requirements for a CREMDM/DEBMDM handler? What would you expect? Maybe you have implemented  something similar on project basis and could post some feedback?
One painpoint I'd see with a CREMDM/DEBMDM inbound is that you'll lose the IDoc Monitoring capabilities. The message split allows a single record tracing in the IDoc Monitor (as there is a 1:1 relation between IDocs and records). This changes for the mass processing. The monitor would display only the status of the IDoc and you'd need some other monitoring capabilities to check the results on record level. What are your thoughts about that? Is the monitoring important? Would the application log be a feasible solution for that challenge?
Additional comments are welcome, of course.
Best regards
Michael
PS: @ Matt, please contact me by mail. thanks.

Hello ,
Here are some other pain areas regarding the message split :
1. Complicated monitoring proess & reprocessing error idocs : We have to monitor ADRMAS & CREMAS or ADRMAS & DEBMAS during inbound processing. Also we could not find any best practices to reprocess error idocs. E.g. If ADRMAS fails & CREMAS succeeds what is the impact . Also the impact if it is reveresed. We know for sure that if CREMAS fails , vendor will not be created / updated. But we could not find specific pointers for ADRMAS failures.
2. It is a tedious process to link CREMAS with corresponding ADRMAS idoc specially when SAP maintains internal number range for vendors.
3 . The process is complicated if you are managing customer or vendor contact information with contact address . We could succesfully implement the integration but it took us a while to reach end-point.
4. Splitting really does not seem to support if ERP maintains internal number range.
5. Another major issue we observed is , if ADRMAS is under process & corresponding DEBMAS or CREMAS is posted , it fails raising the message that Account is locked. Default serialization does work in ERP system . But overlap of few microseconds also cause this error.
Hope this helps !!
Please let me know if you need any other specific details since we have used MDM - ECC integration using PI to its maximum extent .

  • Error : Pre Settings for IDoc inbound processing are missing error

    Hi Experts,
    There is a CRM job which executes LSMW and I am facing a strange problem during the IDOC posting the error "Pre Settings for IDoc inbound processing are missing error". Can anyone please tell me how to correct this error?
    Thanks in advance.
    Madhurima.

    I'd start with the following document, with one modification. At step 12 after typing GEARAspiWDM press the Enter/Return key once prior to clicking OK. (Pressing Return adds a carriage return in the field and is important.)

  • LSMW idoc Inbound Processing settings

    Hi,
    We have done LSMW with BAPI method to create Bank master.
    In Idoc Inbound Processing settings -
    We created partner type as 'B' i.e, for BANK
    While creating Partner Number it is not allowing to create Partner Number. The error is  "Enter a permissible partner number"
    Please let me know what would be the problem.

    Hi,
    Use patner type as US only and LSMW as Patner number.
    this will surely solve your problem .
    plz do this way :
    The first requirement is a file port for the file transfer. If required, create a port of the file type via Maintain ports. To do this, position the cursor on "File" and press Create. You should be in change mode. SAP recommends:
    Port: LSMW
    Name: Legacy System Migration Workbench
    Version: 3 (IDoc record types SAP Release 4.x)
    Outbound file Please enter a (dummy) physical directory and a file name, i.e. u2018filelsmwu2019 ·
    As an addition, you can specify a tRFC port. This port is required, if you do not want to create a file during data conversion but submit the data in packages directly to function module IDoc_Inbound_Asynchronous.
    SAP recommends:
    Port: assigned by the system
    Version: 3 (IDoc record types SAP Release 4.x)
    RFC destination: Name of R/3 System
    Name of port: Legacy System Migration Workbench.
    Then the partner type should be defined or selected. SAP recommends:
    Partner type: "US" (User)
    As of release 4.5A, this partner type is available in the standard system. Up to release 4.0B inclusive, this partner type is not available in the standard program and should be added. SAP recommends:
    Partner type: Create US
    Report name: /SAPDMC/SAP_LSMW_PARTNERTYPES
    Form routine: READ_USER
    Short description: any.
    Finally a partner number should be defined or selected. SAP recommends:
    Partner number: LSMW
    Partner type: US
    Partner status: A (active)
    Type: US
    Language: DE or EN
    Person in charge: Your user ID.

  • Test IDOC inbound processing in WE19

    Hello,
    I want to test an inbound processing for an IDOC in WE19. I don't have any message so i enter 'via message type' in the initial screen.
    Then i fill the segments/fields of the presented segments that i think are necessary and also some data in the 'Edit control record fields'.
    But when i click on button 'Standard inbound' i receive the error message 'Initial recipient partner type'. Please note I don't fill any parameter in the control fields for receiver, but even if I enter a value in 'partner type' for receiver I got the same error. If I need to fill this parameter I don't know what should it contains.
    Does anyone have an idea about what could be the reason of this error ?
    Thanks is advance,
    Paulo Sousa

    Hello Paulo
    Recently I implemented an ALE scenario where the sending and receiving logical system are the same.
    Purchase orders are sent to SAP-XI which returns the IDoc to the same logical system als sales order IDoc.
    Thus, our logical system has the ORDERS message type as outbound and inbound parameter. SAP-XI is the other receiving and sending logical system.
    The easies way is the "Copy&Paste" approach. Look into your system for existing inbound IDocs and compare their control record with the one of your test IDoc.

  • Need information on how to create Idoc Inbound Interfaces for Business Sys

    Hi,
    I'm losing it.
    Can anyone point me to some documentation or an example of how to create inbound interfaces for Business Systems in PI 7.1.
    Here's the scenario
    I'm working on a B2B integration process which sends inbound idocs to an ECC 6.0 system.
    I've created the Business System communication component  but under the Inbound Interfaces it is blank.
    I want to have MBGMCR.MGBMCR03 as an inbound interface.
    But I forget how to get it there.
    For Business components you can just add the inbound interface.
    I've already defined the Business System in the SLD pointed it to the correct Tech System, imported the idoc definitions in the Enterprise Service Builder and set up IDX1, IDX2 to ensure the metadata exists in PI.
    But for Business systems the hep says that it's got to come from the SLD.
    Outbound/Inbound Interfaces
    For each business system, the interfaces that are installed on the business system are also entered in the SLD. These interfaces are displayed in this frame. You cannot add any other interfaces.
    I know I've done this before, but I can't remember how.
    Cheers,

  • Idoc inbound processing? from non-sap system?

    Hi experts,
    I'm confused with some functions below:
    IDOC_INBOUND_SYNCHRONOUS
    INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS
    IDOC_INBOUND_SINGLE
    IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS
    can you tell me what are the differences? when to use them?
    for sap outbound processing, we can only call function master_idoc_distribute to generate idoc or use message control to trigger outbound idoc. no other options, correct?
    for sap inbound processing, if we use message control for automatical posting, we have process code which read  the inbound idoc file and do the sap posting. when to use those functions above?
    does the middlewares like seeburger, GIS call those functions to generate idocs at SAP side?
    in what scenarios can we use those functions? read directly non-sap file into sap internal table then call the functions to create inbound idoc? how about the posting? call inbound processe code function after the functions above?
    in case the interface between sap and legacy system is using above functions to build inbound idoc in sap and sap use process code for inbound posing, sap can monitor all inbound process using idoc, but how can the legacy system mornitor the interface?
    Thanks.

  • IDOC Inbound Processing and updating DN

    Hi,
    I'm unfamiliar to inbound processing (i just understand the basics). I've dealt with outbound processing and user exits associated with that.
    I have a specific client requirement: an Inbound IDOC is to be processed and update a delivery note. Some field of some segment within this inbound idoc will carry some information which I need to extract and update a field  in the Delivery Note with. How could I do this?
    Inbound message type is DESADV. Does my requirement need user exit programming or can I set up some kind of a batch job process?
    Thanks in advance,
    Risad

    HI,
    For processing inbound idoc one process code attached in the partner profile. From this process code you can find out the function module attached to it.
    Inside function module use can check for exit or badi to modify DN or write your custom logic. If you already have the test data you can check it from we19. Here you need to select standard inbound.
    Thanks

    if you run BD51.
    Now go to WE57 and assign the Direction as '2' ( For Inbound processing)
    Basic TYpe , Message type and If you have Mess code also then also assign here.
    Now go to WE42 ( For Process Code ) create new entires for Process code
    in Identification assign your FM.
    Now go to WE20 and selct tyour Partner type and

  • Query for Inbound processing for ALE IDOC & Outbound through Change Pointer

    Hi,
    I have a scenario, in which I have reduced Message Type for HRMD_A as Inbound and Outbound both.
    The Problem that I am facing is , whenver the inbound Idoc processing takes place, it updates the Infotypes and at the same time, as updation is done, Change Pointers write entries for the same in BDCP2. So, again the same changes are tracked for Outbound Message type and creates the idoc and post it again.
    This need to be avoided. The requirement is to stop such processing of the data from sending again.
    Any help for this would be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Heena

    Hi Heena...
    please check the fields present corresponding to the messagetype "HRMD_A" in trnsaction BD52. keep only the reuired fields and delete the remaining fields in BD52 trnsaction. if any changes happened in the required fields then change pointers will trigger an idoc. So, please check the fields present in BD52 transaction.
    please let me know if you need any clarifications further.

    I never heard of this specific scenario for liveCache usage in the past 7 years working in SAP support on the liveCache component.
    Might be useful if you provide some more details (documentation, notes, links) that describe this usage scenario.
    In any case you will need to have a liveCache version that is compatible to your application ABAP coding.
    The error message you posted indicates that your liveCache version does not fit your application version (or vice versa).

    Well, the liveCache needs to be integrated into the LC10. You'd do this in transaction SM59 - but as you've followed an installation guide, this would have been covered in it...

    The only thing this tells us is: the liveCache instance itself apparently comes up and writes out the standard log files.
    That's it.
    As I already tried to explain, the problem seems to be the dependence between your application and the liveCache version.
    Usually I'd recommend to open a support message for this, but the colleagues would (hopefully) ask the same questions as I did.
    regards,
    Lars
