IDOC structure in F4 Help

Hey Guys
I m developing a search functionality where i need to search the message payload based upon a certain value in IDOC(it could be IDOC number,IDOC type,creation date etc etc).
My functionality needs complete Xpath for this search(for e.g. IDOC/EDI_DC40/DOCNUM) to be typed in manually.
Is it possible to provide IDOC structure in F4 help so that we can select the IDOC segment instead of typing it down?
Thanx
Saif

Hi Saif,
go to t-code we31--> press f1 and see the technical setting see the F4 help attached to it ..
use the same f4 help for the screen field you developed for custom Program..
For Segment F4 help...
Table Name        EDISEGMENT   
Field Name        SEGTYP
for Idoc  Number F4 help..
Table Name        EDIDC   
Field Name        DOCNUM
for Creation Date F4 help..
Table Name        EDIDC   
Field Name        UPDDAT

  • Help to read the complete basic idoc structure

    Hi,
    I have the following Basic Idoc structure
    1. /DSD/HH_CONTROL01- Control data for hand held interface.
    1.1 /DSD/HH_E1CTHD01- Control data header.
    1.1.1 /DSD/HH_E1CTAD02- Control idoc- Application data header
    1.1.1.1 /DSD/HH_E1CTID03- Control idoc- Application data item
    1.1.1.2 /E1WXX01- Segment for customer enhancement to be used as requirement.     
    OBSERVATION----
    1. The basic idoc (1) is found in table EDBAS and description in EDBAST.
    2. The segments (1.1.1.2) are in table EDISEGMENT and EDISEGT.
    3. All the other structures (1.1), (1.1.1), (1.1.1.1) are found in tables EDISDEF and some in EDISEGMENT.
    QUESTIONS----
    1.What query can I write to get the above basic idoc structure?
    2.How are the relationships mapped among the tables?

  • File-to-IDoc, but the file structure is equal to the IDoc structure

    hi,
    we have a scenario where the incoming message has to be picked up by FTP. The incoming message is a flat file, no delimiters, no separators, nothing, however is exactly the IDoc structure.
    Since the file adapter does not know how the structure is set up, because no tags are present, it can not translate the filestructure into any format. Therefore it can not be processed further.
    Is there a way for a fileadapter to convert this plain file to an IDoc format, or to call the file-to-IDocadapter up front, the same way as if you would use in SAP the fileport in IDoc processing ??
    thanks!

    Hi Alexander,
    XI understands ONLY XML. All messages to and from XI are always XML messages.
    Now, if the file being placed by your Legacy System is not going to be an XML file, then you can use the content conversion of your sender File adapter to convert this non XML file to an XML file.
    Same way, if the file that is required by your 3rd party application should not be in a XML format, you can use content conversion of the receiver adapter to convert XML to text and so on.
    Basic point, all messages that reach the inegration engine of XI need to be in XML format and so you need content conversion to conevrt non xml to xml and vice versa.
    To make note mapping cannot be performed with a flat file as XI understands only XML. Hence content conversion required.
    Please go thru these links for step by step procedure to do the same:

  • Error when importing IDOC structure from SAP - Control record missing

    Hi!
    We are hitting problems when importing IDOCs from SAP into the Integration Builder. The import ends successfully but when we drill into the IDOC structure we get a message: <b>Schema for type EDI_DC40.ASN_OUT.DELVRY01.Z1DELVRY (category Data Type) not found</b>. This is only happening for one specific IDOC type only. We have checked all we can think of but cannot get this to work. Any help would be very much appreciated. Of course, points awarded for any good ideas. Thx, Duncan

  • Idoc structure not displying in XPATH at Receiver Determination..!!! Urgent

    Hi All,
    Doing Idoc to File Scenerio,
    In the receiver determination, I need to select the XPATH from the Idoc structure and by based on the GLN number which is coming in one of the segment, I need to pass to different receivers.
    Problem here is Iam not able to see the Idoc structure in the  XPATH to provide the condition.
    But when doing File to Idoc scenarios, Iam able to see the File structure.
    Any idea why IDoc structure is not displaying over here??
    Its a bit urgent for me..
    Waiting for your replys.
    Thanks&Regards
    Seema.

    Hi,
    This will help you now
    Hi,
    If you get the following msg while selecting the BS in Receiver Determination and if you are unable to view the Structure of the Source
    "Message interface does not exist in any software components installed on this business system"
    1) Open ID-----Double click on Business system that which u are using in the scenario
    2) Check whether you are able to see the SWC in the Othere attributes TAB
    3) If it is not there means goto SLD----Open the Technical System of R/3 by choosing Web as ABAp type
    4) Click on Installed Products TAB
    5) Click on Add New product and add your Product of the SWC whcih you are using for developement and Save it
    6) Then goto Business systems TAB in the same Technical systems window and click on the Business System appears in the window.
    7) Click on Installed products and Check the check box of your Product and then finally save that.
    Now you should be able to see the SWC in the Othere attributes TAB in ID

  • How to see the IDOC structure in XML format

    Hi, I am ver new to MII. I configured connection between SAPand SAP MII and IDOC is triggering in SAP MII. I can see the idoc triggered in Message monitor.
    Now my query is how to see the IDOC structure in XML format? I written a transaction where I am assigning transaction.xml to my Local.xml and trying to display with message action block. When I display the message I am getting message as below
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
    There is no data in the xml, but in SAP side i seen data and segment which sent to MII as a IDOC. Please help me how to resolve this issue.

    Hi, Thanks for quick response.
    In Message monitor I seen the IDOC list after executing POIT transaction code in SAP.
    But the display button is disabled always in message monitor screen. I want to take this IDOC and save it in my SQL database. So I want to see this IDOC structure in XML format. Where i can see this structure?

  • IDoc structure mismatch between SAP R/3 and PI

    Hi,
    There is an interface in PI which receives IDoc from SAP R/3 system. I have been facing an issue of IDoc structure mismatch (in terms of data present in it) between SAP R/3 and when PI receives the IDoc.
    To be more precise,
    In SAP R/3 system, the value ABC is present in the field DOCNUM in the IDoc.
    But when the PI receives the same IDoc from SAP R/3 (as seen in Integration Engine), the value ABC is present in a different field and the DOCNUM field is empty.
    <DOCNUM></DOCNUM>
    <ARCKEY>ABC</ARCKEY>
    The first step towards resolution was to delete and reimport the IDoc metadata from SAP R/3 in PI system using IDX2, which did not help in this case.
    Could anyone please help in resolving the field mismatch between the IDoc triggered from SAP R/3 and the IDoc received by PI.
    Regards,
    Prajeet

    Hi Prajeet,
    it's long ago but your question has not been finally solved, so let me try to give you an answer. We are facing the same problem after patching our PI.
    I think the reason for the different behaviour is related to SAP note 1233908, where SAP has changed the IDoc adapter.

  • How we can import an IDOC structure from one SAP system to another w/o ALE

    Hi Gurus,
    How we can import an IDOC structure from one SAP system to another? we're not able to use ALE tech, these two sap systems are isolated.
    Any response will be awarded!
    Thanks a lot.
    Samson

    hi,
    1.One is by change pointer concept i.e by executing the RBDMIDOC.We can generate the idoc and automatically to the inbound System.
    2.By executable program also like bd10 and bd11.

  • IDOC Structure

    Hi..
    How do we know which message type is appropriate for our document type.?
    Can any one give the whole list of message types used in interface.
    Regards
    Sampath

    Hi
    You can go to transaction WE64 to see detail message type including the process code (FM).
    There are different message types for different partners depending on your requirement u have to use that
    Sending data to sap/non sap is same but the it makes some difference in configuration in bd64 ie distribution model, as a abaper our work is same while sending idocs to legas as to be send sap.
    here i am giving entire material for ALE/IDOCS and let me know if u have any doubts.
    It gives, entire idoc documentation.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/3b/beb13b00ae793be10000000a11402f/frameset.htm
    To develop a new custom ALE scenario, comprises 5 steps:
    1. Design and develop the custom IDoc with it’s segments and a new message type
    2. Configure the ALE environment with the new IDoc and message type (customer model, partner profiles and linking IDoc to message type)
    3. Develop the outbound process which does the following:
    • Populates the custom IDoc with control info and functional data
    • Sends the IDoc to the ALE layer for distribution
    • Updates status and handles errors
    4. Configure the ALE inbound side (partner profiles with inbound process code)
    5. Develop the inbound process which does the following:
    • Reads the IDoc into a BDC table; selects other data that is required
    • Runs transaction using call transaction or BDC session
    • Updates status and handles errors
    Below is a pictorial representation of the flow of a complete ALE scenario from the sending system to the receiving system.
    Figure 1: ALE Scenario model
    1.1. ALE Example
    For the purposes of this example we will develop a small ALE scenario. This scenario is described below.
    “The receiver of an internal service must be able to reverse (cancel) the invoice receipt which will then cancel the applicable billing document automatically on the service provider’s system.”
    Figure 2: Example Purchasing & Selling scenario
    We will develop a custom IDoc to carry the billing number from the Service Receiver’s system to the Service Provider’s system. We will populate the IDoc in a user exit on the sending side and we will process the transaction on the receiving side using a custom function module and a BDC transaction call.
    No rule conversion, segment filtering or version conversion will be implemented in the model as described in Figure 1.
    Requirements
    • Working ALE environment - See ALE Basis Configuration Guide;
    • ALE scenario design together with the business requirement;
    • Development access; and
    • ALE configuration access.
    NOTES:
    1. All IMG references to transactions are located in the transaction SALE which is the ALE portion of the IMG
    2. This is one way of developing a scenario where no message control exists. If message control exist (EG. On purchase orders) then NAST can be used to call an outbound function module that would create the required IDocs.
    3. Extensive knowledge of IDocs and ALE basis configuration is required in order to understand this guide.
    2. OUTBOUND PROCESSING
    2.1. Create IDoc type (WE30) Client independent
    The IDoc type refers to the IDoc structure that you will require for your development. In our case the IDoc type is called ZINVRV01. This IDoc type will have 1 segment called Z1INVRV with 2 fields, LIFNR & XBLNR, in this segment. If you require many segments or nested segments then they are also created using the same procedure.
    We will create the IDoc of the following structure:
    ZINVRV01
    Purchasing and Selling - Invoice receipt reversal
    Z1INVRV P&S - Segment 1
    Segment fields
    LIFNR Vendor account number
    XBLNR Reference document number
    Figure 3: IDoc type ZINVRV01
    To create the IDoc type, follow these next few steps:
    • Enter transaction WE30 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain IDoc type)
    • Type in ZINVRV01 and click on Basic IDoc type, click the Create icon
    • Click on Create new (we are creating an IDoc from scratch but you may want to copy another IDoc if it is similar to your requirements) and enter a description, and press enter
    • Click on ZINVRV01 and then on the Create icon
    • Enter Z1INVRV as the segment type (must start with Z1), check mandatory if the segment must exist (in this case check it), enter 1 in minimum number and 1 as maximum number. (Make the maximum number 9999999999 if there are going to be many of these segments in each IDoc. IE. When line items are passed via IDocs), click on Segment editor
    • Enter a description for your segment type and create
    • Enter a description for your segment, enter each field required in your IDoc, in our case type LIFNR across for Field name, DE structure and DE documentation, repeat for XBLNR and press enter to validate.
    • Save and generate, press back
    • To release the segment choose Goto, Release from the menu
    • Check the box on the line of your new segment
    • Save, back and enter
    • Your IDoc type structure should be displayed with your new segment
    • Save and back
    • To release the IDoc type choose Extras, Release type from the menu and Yes
    Your IDoc is now ready for use. If you need to add fields or segments to your IDoc type, you will need to cancel the release of the IDoc type as well as the segment release using a similar procedure followed above (except now you uncheck the release box for the segment and you choose cancel release for the IDoc type).
    2.2. Create message type (WE81) Client independent
    To create a new message type, follow these next few steps:
    • Enter transaction WE81 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Create logical message type)
    • Choose Create logical message type by double clicking on it
    • Click on change icon to enter change mode
    • Click on New entries to add a new type
    • Enter the required message type, in our case it is ZINVRV and an appropriate description
    • Save and exit.
    Your message type has now been created. The next step will be to link it to the IDoc.
    2.2.1. Link message to IDoc type (WE82 & BD69) Client independent
    To link the message type to the IDoc type follow these next few steps:
    • Enter transaction WE82 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> EDI: Message Types and Assignment to IDoc Types)
    • Click on change icon to enter change mode
    • Click on New entries to create the link
    • Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01
    • Save and exit
    • Enter transaction BD69 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Assign message type to IDoc for ALE)
    • Click on change icon to enter change mode
    • Click on New entries to create the link
    • Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01
    • Save and exit
    Your IDoc is now linked to your message type. We still need to link object types and add the message to the model before we can use the message.
    2.2.2. Maintain object type for message type (BD59) Client independent
    The ALE objects are used to create links between IDocs and applications objects, to control the serialisation, to filter messages in the customer model and to use listings.
    For our own message type and IDoc you must maintain object types for the links.
    If you want to check the serialisation for the message type, then you must maintain object types for the serialisation. If no serialisation object has been maintained for a given message type, then the serialisation will not be checked for this message type.
    To add an object type to our message type, follow these next few steps:
    • Enter transaction BD59 (ALE -> Extensions -> ALE object maintenance -> Maintain object types)
    • Type in your message type ZINVRV and press enter
    • Click on New entries
    • Enter your object type, LIFNR (We need to use the vendor as a filter object), the segment name where LIFNR resides, Z1INVRV, a number 1 for the sequence followed by the actual field name LIFNR
    • Save and exit.
    You have now created an object that we’ll use as a filter object in the customer model to direct the flow of messages to the various logical systems based on the vendors in the filter of the message type ZINVRV.
    We now need to add our new message type to the distribution model.
    2.3. Configuring the Distribution Model
    This task is performed on your ALE reference client.
    2.3.1. Manual Configuration (BD64) Client dependent
    To manually configure the customer distribution model, read the ALE configuration procedure, and follow these steps:
    • Perform the Maintain customer distribution model directly function. (ALE -> Distribution customer model -> Maintain customer distribution model directly)
    • Specify the customer model you want to maintain and the logical system that is to be the sender of the messages OR create a new model. (Create model ALE with logical system ALELS1C400)
    • Choose the receiving systems to which the sending system must forward message type ZINVRV to.
    • For each receiving logical system allocate the message type necessary for communication to the receiving systems as per ALE configuration procedure.
    • Create filter objects (in our case LIFNR as the object type with the associated vendor number, 0000018001 with leading zeros, in the object area) for the message types.
    • Save the entries.
    NOTES:
    You cannot maintain a message type between the same sender and receiver in more than one customer distribution model.
    Only the owner is authorised to modify the model.
    To change the owner of a model, choose the 'Maintain ownership of customer distribution model' function. Make sure that all changes will be distributed to all systems that know the corresponding model. To do so, you can use the correction and transport system.
    To transport the customer distribution model you should use the Distribute customer model function of the IMG as described below.
    2.3.2. Distribute customer model (BD71) Client dependent
    After the customer model has been created centrally, it must be distributed to the other remote systems. This entails first of all setting up the communication for the distributed systems and then sending the model.
    2.3.2.1. Distribute Model (BD71) Client dependent
    This task is performed on your ALE reference client. To distribute the customer distribution model, read the ALE configuration procedure and follow these steps:
    • Make the settings for the communication with the other decentral systems, you have not set them yet.
    • Define the RFC destination for R/3 connections whose names correspond to the name of the corresponding logical system.
    • Create the output partner profile.
    • Distribute the customer model
    • Specify the name of the customer model.
    • You must specify the target system to which you want to distribute the customer model.
    • You must repeat this function for every distributed logical system.
    2.3.2.2. Maintain sending system partner profile (WE20) Client dependent
    With this function, you define the partner profiles for all outbound and inbound messages on the basis of the customer distribution model.
    After you have defined and distributed the customer model, you will have to maintain the partner profiles locally. To do this read the ALE configuration procedure.
    • Enter the output mode (background, immediately) and the package size for outbound processing.
    Requirements
    • The customer model must be maintained.
    • RFC destinations must be maintained.
    • The customer model must be distributed.
    • To ensure that the appropriate persons in charge are informed if a processing error occurs, you must make settings in: Error processing Maintain organisational units.
    2.4. Populate & distribute IDoc using ABAP
    An IDoc consists of a control record with structure edidc and one or more data records with structure edidd. The control record contains the sender and recipient of the IDoc, as well as information on the type of message.
    To be able to pass an IDoc to the ALE layer, you must set up a field string with structure edidc and an internal table with structure edidd. They are used to call function module master_idoc_distribute, which performs the save to the database and triggers the dispatch if necessary.
    2.4.1. Example code
    The code displayed below does the following:
    • populates our IDoc segment Z1INVR with the 2 fields XBLNR and LIFNR, populates the segment name and appends this to an internal table used to store the IDoc data;
    • populates the control record info with the message type and IDoc type; and
    • calls the MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE function module which distributes the IDoc as configured in the customer distribution model.

    3. INBOUND PROCESSING
    3.1. Create Function Module
    This function module is called when a message type, of type ZINVRV, comes into the receiving system. This needs to be configured and is dealt with later in this section. The function module is passed the IDoc as a parameter.

    The code displayed below does the following:
    • populates a BDC table with the IDoc info;
    • calls the transaction via a BDC call; and
    • updates the IDoc status according to the BDC error status.

    3.1.1. Debugging inbound FM
    Use transaction WE19 to test inbound function module in debugging mode. Also use WE05 to view the IDocs and their statuses.
    3.2. Maintain ALE attributes
    The inbound function module needs to be linked to the message type and the message type needs to be linked to the appropriate inbound process code at the partner profile level before the scenario is enabled. These steps are described below in detail.
    3.2.1. Link Message Type to Function Module (WE57) Client independent
    To link a message (ZINVRV) type to a function module (Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV) follow these steps:
    • Enter transaction WE57 (ALE -> Extensions -> Inbound -> Allocate function module to logical message)
    • Select an entry (EG. IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS) and copy
    • Type in module name Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
    • Type in basic IDoc type as ZINVRV01
    • Type in message type as ZINVRV
    • Type object type as IDOCINVOIC (Invoice document) - Used for workflow
    • Direction should be set to 2 for inbound
    • Enter and save
    3.2.2. Define FM settings (BD51) Client independent
    • Enter transaction BD51 (ALE -> Extensions -> Inbound -> Define settings for input modules)
    • Click on New entries
    • Type in the name of the new function module Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
    • Enter 0 for mass processing in the output column
    • Save and Exit
    3.2.3. Maintain process codes (WE42) Client dependent
    A process code needs to be maintained on each client. It then needs to be linked to the message via the partner profiles on each client. This allows the various clients to use a unique function module for the same message type.
    To maintain the process code follow these steps:
    • Log on to the appropriate receiving system client
    • Execute WE42 (ALE -> Extensions -> Inbound -> Maintaining process codes inbound)
    • Choose Inbound with ALE service
    • Choose Processing with function module
    • Click on Processing with function module and choose create icon
    • Click on New Entries
    • Type in process code ZINR and give it a description and save
    • Now you are asked to Please maintain codes added in ALE entry methods, enter and choose Z_IDOC_INPUT_FIRVSL and copy it. You should choose a FM similar to your one.
    • Enter your process code ZINR
    • Enter your function module Z_IDOC_INPUT_ZINVRV
    NOTE: The next 6 steps are used in workflow error handling.
    • Enter IDPKFIDCMT in object type
    • Enter MASSINPUTFINISHED in End event
    • Enter IDOCINVOIC in IDoc object type
    • Enter INPUTERROROCCURREDFI in IDoc start event
    • Enter INPUTFINISHEDFI in IDoc End event
    • Enter IDOCINVOIC in Application object type
    You will need to determine the task associated with object IDOCINVOIC, and then assign the appropriate position to it. This position will then receive the application error messages via workflow.
    To set up the workflow area please consult the Workflow config guide.
    3.3. Create inbound partner profile
    For each message type you need to maintain the inbound partner profiles.
    3.3.1. Maintain receiving system partner profile (WE20) Client dependent
    To maintain inbound partner profiles read the document ALE configuration procedure:
    • Add the message type ZINVRV with process code ZINR.
    • Enter the output mode (background, immediately) for inbound processing and NO message code.
    • Enter the position S and choose the ALE administrator 50000085. This position will then receive all the technical ALE errors via workflow.
    3.4. Test
    Once the inbound function module has been debugged the scenario should be ready to test in its entirety. If problems occur, read through the relevant areas of this document to check your configuration or code.

    What is IDOC
    IDocs are SAP’s file format to exchange data with a foreign system. IDocs is the acronym for Intermediate Document. This indicates a set of (electronic) information, which builds a logical entity. An IDoc is e.g. all the data of a single customer in your customer master data file. Or the Idoc is all the data of a single invoice.
    • IDocs are an ASCII file format to exchange data between computers; the format is chosen arbitrarily
    • IDocs are similar to segmented files; they are not a description language like ANSI X.12, EDIFACT or XML
    • The IDoc contents are processed by function modules, which can be assigned in customizing
    Process Steps for IDOC Programming
    The following steps are required for inbound and outbound IDOC Programming.
    Interpreting An IDoc Segment Info
    All IDoc data records are exchanged in a fixed format, regardless of the segment type. The segment’s true structure is stored in R/3’s repository as a DDIC structure of the same name.
    Go to transaction code WE31. Enter the name of the Segment, which is to be created (fig 2.1).
    E.g. Create the segment ZEMPMASTSEG
    Fig 2.1 WE31- IDOC Segment main screen.
    Fig 2.2 WE31 IDOC Segment definition screen.
    In the above screen user can enter the fields, which are necessary for the segment. Once all the necessary fields will be populated then Save the transaction. After Saving release the version of the Segment by selecting the version and through menu Edit -> Set release.
    Same way create one or more segment.
    Fig 2.3 WE31 – IDOC Segment definition screen for another segment (ZEMPMASTHEADERSEG).
    IDoc Type – The Structure of the IDoc File
    The IDoc type is the name of the data structure used to describe the file format of a specific IDoc.
    An IDoc is a segmented data file. It has typically several segments. The segments are usually structured into fields, however different segments use different fields.
    The IDoc type is defined with transaction WE30, the respective segments are defined with transaction WE31 as per the point 2
    Go to transaction code WE30. Enter the IDOC Type name.
    Fig 3.1 WE30 – IDOC Type main screen.
    Add the segments to the IDOC Type as per the requirement.
    For e.g. in the fig 3.2 it shown that IDOC Type is having only one segment ZEMPMASTHEADERSEG, which is having one child segment ZEMPMASTSEG
    Fig 3.2 WE30 – IDOC Type segment screen
    For each segment developer (double click on the segment) can set the minimum, maximum number of segment in a sequence.
    Fig 3.3 fig 3.4
    Defining the Message Type
    The message type defines the context under which an IDoc is transferred to its destination. It allows using the same IDoc file format to use for several different applications.
    The message type together with the IDoc type determines the processing function.
    The message type defined using transaction code WE81.
    fig 4.1 WE81 – Message Types
    Define Valid Combination Of Message and IDoc Types
    The valid combinations of message type and IDoc type are stored in table EDIMSG, using transaction WE82.
    The declaration of valid combinations is done to allow validation, if the system can handle a certain combination.
    Fig 5.1 WE82 – Message Type Assignment
    Process Step for Inbound IDOC Programming
    Characteristics of Inbound function module
    Before assigning the function module to Inbound process code, its characteristics must be set with the transaction BD51. This step is mandatory before assigning the function module to Inbound process code.
    For inbound processing you need to tell, whether the function will be capable of dialog processing. This is meant for those functions, which process the inbound data via call transaction. Those functions can be replayed in visible batch input mode to check why the processing might have failed.
    Here the main characteristic is Input Type. It means “How are IDoc packages processed?” and having values like
    Input Type Short Text
    0 Mass Processing
    1 Individual input
    2 Individual input with IDOC locked in CALL TRANSACTION
    Also another property Dialog Allowed can be set here. With “Dialog allowed” IDocs can be processed in dialog mode.
    Fig 6.2 – BD51 Characteristics of Inbound Function Module
    Assigning a processing function
    The combination of message type and IDoc type determine the processing algorithm. This is usually a function module with a well-defined interface or a SAP business object and is set up in table EDIFCT.
    The entry made the points to a function module, which will be called when the IDoc is to be processed. The entries for message code and message function are usually left blank. They can be used to derive sub types of messages together with the partner profile used.
    Used transaction code WE57 for assigning function module to IDOC Type.
    Fig 7.1 WE57 – Assign Function Module to Message and IDOC Type
    Fig 7.2 Assign a handler function to a message/message type
    Process Codes
    R/3 uses the method of logical process codes to detach the Idoc processing and the processing function module. They assign a logical name to function instead of specifying the physical function name.
    The combination message type/IDoc will determine the logical processing code, which itself points to a function. If the function changes, only the definition of the processing codes will be changed and the new function will be immediately effective for all IDocs associated with the process code.
    For inbound processing codes you have to specify the method to use for the determination of the inbound function.
    The Inbound processing code can be attach to the function module using transaction code WE42
    8.1 WE42 – Define Inbound Process Code
    You need to tick, if your function can be used via the ALE engine. This is the option you would usually choose. It allows processing via the ALE scenarios. See fig below
    WE42 – Set properties of Inbound Process Code
    WE42 – Set the Message type for the Inbound Process Code
    Fig 8.4 WE42 – Fill the details of the Inbound Process Code.
    The properties set in the above fig 8.4 are used for the workflow handling when the IDOC is having any error.
    Properties, which are useful in the workflow processing, are as follows.
    • Object Type – It is a business object created using transaction code SWO1 and used as a handler
    • Starting Event - Will triggered the workflow on occur of Error.
    • Ending Event - Will terminate the workflow after processing the
    Workflow Handling
    Refer: - Workflow Guide
    Create Inbound Partner Profile
    For each message type you need to maintain the inbound partner profiles. Maintain receiving system partner profile using WE20 (See fig. 10.3). Add the message type in the Senders inbound parameter.
    Following steps will be followed for creation of partner profile (Inbound).
    • Add the message type (e.g. ZEMPMSG) into the inbound parameter by clicking .
    WE20 – Addition of message type in Inbound Partner Profile
    • On the next screen enter the message type , process code. In the Processing by function module block select the radio button based on the need. If you clicked on Triggered by background program then the IDOC will be collected and will triggered by another program which will run in background and if the second option Triggered immediately is clicked then the IDOC will be processed by the function module as soon as it is triggered.

    Execution Steps for inbound Idoc:
    To execute inbound idoc go to Transaction we19 give the Idoc number execute the transaction
    It displays a screen with control, data, and status records. Click Standard inbound OR inbound function module buttons and process the idoc.
    i) Standard inbound:
    If you have selected the standard inbound button it displays a screen with the standard setup:
    II) Inbound function module:
    If you select the in bound function module button displays the below screen you can enter the function module name which you want to execute
    If you select Check box Call in debug mode you can execute the function module in debug mode.
    Call transaction Processing:
    In Background:
    The function module is called in the background
    This setting is only important if the function module to be called reacts accordingly to the importing parameter 'INPUT_METHOD'. This is therefore only valid for function modules which implement the application functionality using the command 'CALL TRANSACTION'.
    In foreground :
    The function module is called in the foreground.
    This setting is only important if the function module to be called reacts accordingly to the importing parameter 'INPUT_METHOD'. This is therefore only true for function modules which implement application functionality using the command 'CALL TRANSACTION'.
    In foreground After error:
    The function module is called in a background session. This becomes a session in the foreground after the first error has occurred.
    This setting is only important if the function module to be called reacts accordingly to the importing parameter 'INPUT_METHOD'. This is therefore only true for function modules which implement application functionality using the command 'CALL TRANSACTION'.
    Now it will post the idoc.
    Testing of Inbound Idoc:
    If you need to check the status of idoc Go to Transaction ZE05 give the idoc number in the idoc number select option execute the transaction.
    Then displays a screen with Out box and Inbox . select the idoc number in the Inbox Shows the control record , data record ,status record .select the status record and check for the idoc status Then you will be known the idoc is successful posted or not.
    The idoc which has been posted into SAP successfully will have the status 53.
    The list of the other valid status for Inbound Idoc are as follows:
    Status Message Description
    50 IDoc added
    51 Error: Application document not posted
    52 Application document posted
    62 IDoc passed to application
    64 IDoc ready to be transferred to application
    74 IDoc was created by test transaction
    Process Steps for Outbound IDOC Programming
    The following steps are required for Outbound IDOC Programming.
    Common Steps
    The steps for new segment creation, new Idoc Type, new Message Type and linking between message type and Idoc Type are same as Inbound Idoc Programming. The detail Steps for such activities are mentioned in the Page 2 to Page 5.
    Create Outbound Partner Profile
    Use Transaction WE20 and select the Receiver Partner. Then add message type ZEMPMSG in the outbound parameters. The partner profile needs to be created at the ReceiverLogical System(LS)/Customer(KU)/Vendor(LI)/Bank(B)/Benefits provider(BP)/ User(US) only.
    Then double click on the Message type ZEMPMSG and it navigates to the following screen where user has to set the following attributes:
    • Receiver port as A000000001 for RFC
    • Packet Size field as 1
    • Idoc type Z_EMPMAT_IN in basic type field
    • Set the Syntax check box
    • Set the output mode as Transfer Idoc immediately
    • Save the changes.
    Coding Steps:
    1) Create an Executable Program Based on specification.
    2) All the Important Data should be displayed as Parameters with mandatory.
    i) Message type
    ii) Sender port
    iii) Sender partner
    iv) Sender partner function

    Execution Steps
    To execute the outbound idoc Go to SE38 screen&#61672;Give the program name and fill the Selection and execute it.
    Testing of Outbound Idoc:
    If you need to check the status of idoc Go to Transaction ZE05 give the idoc number in the idoc number select option execute the transaction.
    Then displays a screen with Out box and Inbox . select the idoc number in the Outbox Shows the control record , data record ,status record .select the status record and check for the idoc status Then you will be known the idoc is successful posted or not.
    The idoc which has been successful will have the status 03.
    The bellow are the some of the Out bound status:
    Status Message Description
    01 IDoc created
    02 Error passing data to port
    03 Data passed to port OK
    29 Error in ALE service
    30 IDoc ready for dispatch (ALE service)
    31 Error - no further processing
    Change Pointers & Reduction of IDOCs.
    Applications, which write change documents, will also try to write change
    pointers for ALE operations. These are log entries to remember all modified
    data records relevant for ALE. The change point is used for extending or reducing the Idoc structure.
    Following Steps must be followed in case of Change Pointer.
    1) Goto Transaction BD60.
    Note down the Details of the Message Type for which change pointer has to activate. Details like Function Module, Classification Object, ALE object Type etc.
    E.g. ZDEBP3
    2) Next step is goto transaction BD53
    Click on change button.
    First select the segment for which the fields has to modified (either remove or
    add ).
    It will show the fields in a pop-up window where the user can select, deselect the respective fields.
    Save the settings for the Message type. Don’t forget to deactivate and activate the change pointers by clicking Deactivate change pointer and Activate Change pointers button on the main screen. It is mandatory to first Deactivate the change pointer and then activate it.
    Do not save the changes in the same transport request. Create separate transport request, which will be not transported. This is because once you transport the changes then it will not allow you to do the changes on the server on which it has transported.
    3) Once the activation is done system will reset the settings for the Message type in Change pointers (BD60). Maintained the old settings for the Message type like Function Module, Classification Object, and ALE object Type etc.

  • Idoc Structure Import Doubt??

    Hi Experts..
    The client in my case wants a file in a particular way. I can bring the entire data likewise, but the only problem is that in an Idoc structure, there will be the Control Record, which has the Header Record, Data Record and Status Record.
    The next sub structure of Idoc is Segment Record which holds the segment data.
    In Idx2 i imported the meta data, but in the import of Idoc Cremas03, i couldnt get the Data Record structure. So, in IR also when i imported the same, i couldnt see that structure. The first 64 lenght of each segment data in my clients file is the Data record following which the segement data starts. If i cant get it in the input i wont be able to get the desired output. Can anyone tell me how can i include this Data Record part of the Idoc as a part of the Metadata or in IR??
    Kindly help.
    Thanks,
    Anju

    hi,
    data record and control record (edi_dc40)
    are always included when you import in IR

  • Does SAP BO has Idoc structures

    Like SAP R/3, does SAP BO also has Idoc structures to send and receive data from the external system, mainly the production related data.
    Can some one help me on this.

  • Copy imported IDOC structure to own data type structure in PI

    I am looking to copy the imported IDOC structure to data type structure, is there any way to do this instead creating whole elements again. The reason to do this is I need to change the occurence of one of the element and standard IDOC structure wouldn't let me do it.
    Thanks,
    Menaga

    Hi Menaga,
    Inorder to change the occurance in IDOC you will need to import the idoc as external definition which you can use for message mapping (once you change the occurance and import the XSD).
    Michal's blog will help you get to it precisely,
