Please provide me the easy way to understand about IDOC's from MM point of view.
thanks & rgds

1) What is the functionality of the IDOC's in real time.?
The functionality of Idoc is - all your documents like PO, Invoice, order acknowledge etc now a days transmitted electronically, To handle this scenario SAP has functinlity of Idoc in which you convert the data to the in such a format which other party can transmit that data in their format for further processing
2) What is the role of MM Consultant in processing the IDOC's. ?
As MM consultant you have to set up the message type for the POs to generatea the Idoc, testing of Idoc generating successfully as well as receving in the SAP and posting successfully the transciton, etc.
3) What are all the frequently used IDOC's in SAP from MM point of view.
PO create
PO change
Order acknowledgement
Inbound shipping information
Invoice
ASN etc.
This will give you a detail understading

Easy way to send every possible IDoc to a Logical System

Hi all,
With the help of the SAP Java Connector I'm trying to create an application that receives (and further processes) IDocs. The idea is then to walk through a process in SAP, e.g. Procure to Pay (PR, PR approval, Request for quotation, PO,...), and to receive an IDoc after each step of the process.
is there an easy way to enable the sending of all possible IDocs to a specific external Logical System (the JCo). This way the JCo can listen, identify and handle incoming IDocs, and thus reconstruct the process that was executed in SAP with the help of the IDocs.
I can already send some IDocs to my Java Connector, but setting this up for each action or process seems quite a lot of work.
Hope it's clear.
Cheers,
David

Hi,
Understand the query to establish the interface so as to send the IDocs to specific LS (Logical System) which will be connected to external system through JCo.
For Procure to Pay process, external documents (PO,Contract for e.g.) can be sent to external system through output determination process wherein settings can be made to send the output immediately (as soon as document is saved) and output conditions can be maintained per logical system (by maintaining LS as one of the partners) this will also reduce the condition records.
Further it can be achieved to deliver the output to specified folder per document/process wherein Jco will handle further process.In other words create no.of folders per process/document whichever best suits.

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.

Activate IDoc Inbound Processing in LSMW

Hi Gurus,
Why do we need to activate the IDoc Inbound Processing in LSMW if we are going to use BAPI or IDoc in LSMW?

Is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed. my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/me

is there an EASY way to submit podcasts to the itunes store? i've tried creating podcasts in garageband, then somewhere after wordpress itunes doesn't recognize the feed.
my process has been (i am open to suggestions for other free and EASY services/methods):
garageband : create & edit audio. add 1400x1400 image.
share to itunes.
drag file to desktop.
upload .m4a file to google drive.
create a link post in wordpress using "podcast" tag & create "podcast" category.
click on "entries rss" in wordpress, which takes me to the rss subscribe page (which is basically just my wordpress address with "/feed" at the end.
i copy this url.
go to itunes store > then "submit a podcast"
itunes gives me the error message "we had difficulty downloading episodes from your feed."
when i try to subscribe to my podcast in itunes, it does, but gives me no episodes available.
i went back into wordpress and changed settings/ reading settings to : "full text" from "summary"
still the same error message.
i added a feedburner step after wordpress but got the same errors. i don't think i should have to add feedburner.
wordpress seems to be encapsulating the rss, what am i doing wrong?
this so much easier when you could go directly from garage band to iweb to mobileme; i miss those apple days (also idisk).

if anyone has a super EASY process, i would LOVE to know what it is. EASY, meaning no html and also free. there are many free online storage systems available, many of which i currently use. the above process was just me trying to figure it out, if you have an easier method, please share. thank you so much!

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.

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.)

Delay in the Inbound Idoc Posting Process

Dear Friends,
We have an scenario in the Inbound Idoc Posting Process, when we process the Idocs through the standard Inbound Program - RBDAPP01, we face the delay of 3hrs to 12 hrs, approx.
When we try to re-process the same through the manual process, we could successfully post the Idocs, immediately.
When the same happens, through the background job - the delay is happening.
As we see, there is no problem with the program - RBDAPP01, but can't able to trace the delay in the process.
Any suggestions / advises are welcome.
Thanks in advance.

Hi Prasanna,
The update will happen only if a value already exists with the same unit of measure in the system. If the quantity is left blank in the system and if you are trying to update, the update might not happen. Even if the value is Zero in the system, provide the same unit of measure as the data used in the BAPI.

Yogesh

#'s coming up in IDOC when IDOC flatfile processed with RSEINB00

Hi,
We have given IDOCs in flatfile structure which are needed to be loaded in backend SAP R/3 through XI and it needs some transformation,so we are using XI for mapping in between,otherwise we would have processed directly into R3.
Basically we are placing IDOC Flatfile in a folder and we are running RSEINB00 program on XI through a file port in XI and IDOCS are getting created in Backend SAP R/3.
When we place IDOC flatfile in Windows folder and process the file we are getting #s in IDOC fileds(many fields) ,but we don't see any #s when we process the IDOC flatfile when placing IDOC flatfile on UNIX .Our XI/PI is running on UNIX.
please help,what causing the problem?
Thank you,
Regards,
Sathish

Hi Ravi kanth,
I see them (#s)in IDOC fields in backend SAP R/3 once the IDOC flatfile got processed.
as we are running RSEINB00 report on XI ,we noticed that empty tags are coming (from Windows OS Folder)in SXMB_MONI even before my mapping execution ,I think they are being populated as # in IDOC.but dont see this problem when IDOC file processed from UNIX folder.
You think ,if we save file in UTF-8 format or Binary might help rather than ANSI format and process it.
Thank you,
Sathish

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.
Regards,
Hari
Edited by: Bhatlapenumarthy Hari Krishna on Sep 12, 2008 9:31 AM

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.

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 .
Regards
Yogesh

IDOC Inboun processing success but no record posted to table

Hi,
We are performing ALE refresh in RCD221 (development system). The ALE IDOCS are extracted for HR area with Message class as HRMD_A, the IDOCS are processed successfully from the sending system (RCB) and reaches the receving system RCD221. While we process the inbound IDOCS in RCD221 records are not getting posted in the table, however the IDOC status is shown as successful (53). This is happening when we are processing the data for object type 'P'.

Bharath Mohan B.

RFC destinations, Logical systems, and then Partner profiles needs to be maintained. and You need to create the Distribution model in sender system.
Partner profiles maintained in both the systems, soure Outbound properties
Target Inbound properties.
if you have two clients in system it will be easily you can check.

RFC For IDoc outbound processing

I am creating an RFC for BDC for call transaction we19
input as : idoc number
and output:-.. iDoc Outbound processing done
so:-
I go to we19> give iDoc Number (say, some number for ALEREQ01), and execute> click on Outbound processing-->click enter -->enter
in this way, I can process any iDoc from SAP system to outbound.
I want to create RFC for the same.
Problem:-
when i am executing that RFC, and when I check the iDoc status in we05, that iDoc shows status as Idoc ready to dispatch( its in yellow color).. Its not showing green color and not saying that IDoc passed OK
when I try manually ,I see the status green..OK..successfully
Any idea why I am getting this problem??
Is there any problem in my BDC recording?..but when I run that recording for Process, i dont see any problem,it executes successfully.. but when I copy the Code from BDC and make a RFC using that code, its giving problem as mentioned.

Hi Ankit,
Theorotically it should work.... but I'll suggest not to use BDC here. What you can do is,
1. You have Idoc number..Right?
2. Read control record from EDIDC and data record from EDID4.
3. Then call Master_idoc_distribute.
4. This will again distribute the same IDoc with same control and data record as a new one. It will be same as WE19 , but without WE19.
Please check and confirm.
Regards,
Audy.

Idocs not processed automatically in BW

Dear Experts,
I have a scenario here where I extract data from source system via process chains.
The source system job completed and in BW, the outbound idocs resulted in the following Status (02).
02 Error passing data to port 1
In the infopackage message dialog, I got the message as
Could not find code page for receiving system
Errors have been reported in Business Information Warehouse during the IDoc update:
In order to resolve this, I'm manually processing the idoc using program RBDAGAIN.
Note: This issue occurs only when I trigger the infopackage via process chains.
How do I rectify this error so that the idocs are processed automatically in BW?
Br, Harish

Hi,
how much time your ecc job takes to finish job.
Is this process chain newly created one or old one?
if its old one, any changes were applied on this process chain recently?
is it showing any idoc numbers at below status bar.
if yes then try to pull them by using t code BD87.
Can you share info pack error message screen shot.
Thanks
