Inbound IDOC:First record is not an IDoc control record

Dear Experts,
I am currently testing an inbound IDOC with program RSEINB00. Unfortunatelly I always get the errror "First record is not an IDoc control record (please check file)".
So apparently it picks up the file, but there are some format errors I guess?
Does anybody have an idea what to do?
this is file uplaoded:

First record is not an IDOC control record - Error

When I am trying to import orders in my test system through RSEINB00 , it is giving me this error "First record is not an IDOC control record"
But if I manually do it through test tool , it post successfully.
I tried different files which have been posted into production client successfully but still the same error.
It was working just fine until yesterday. Today I modified one file and ran it and it gave me the error. Now its giving me the error in all the file i try.
Any clues ??

Hi,
Please check the partner profile (WE20) and IDoc ports (WE21) setup, perhaps someone changed them by mistake.
Also please check the IDoc file content whether there is IDoc control record (EDIDC) information or not.

"Receiver port not valid in control record"...idoc error

Hi,
The new materials are sent to SAP via a text file which is placed in the application server which EDI uses to populate the Idoc segments and creates the material master.
Recently we upgraded from SAP 4.6 C to ERP 5.0.
After upgrading we are getting a message as Port(HPLED) invalid in control record.
I get an error message as "receiver port HPLED not valid in control record"...
It is not able to find the receiver port & hence cannot create the MM.
We checked all the config and compared with Test and production and we could not find any noticable change.
Did anyone come across any infor on this?
Your valubale reply is really very important for me.
Pls reply.
Regards,
Pri

Hey Ramesh,
I've already done the WE57 setting.
You see the WE57 setting is always done on the reciever side and not on the sender side (There is no harm but it is not what SAP recomends) The Linking on the sender side is done in the Partner Profile, where we give the extension name.
For the reciever this Partner profile setting of extension is not there therefore we need to go to WE57 and do it.
I've done all the config and have tried all the things in both the systems but somehow nothing is working.
That is why I asked that in my Inbound FM which is IDOC_INPUT_HRMD do I need to popluate one of it Parameters or fields where I mention the Extension name and all.
Yesterday however I found an SAP NOTE (105148) which tells me that my naming convention of the Extension is wrong. I have made ZHRMD_A07 extending standard IDOC tupe HRMD_A07, actually it should be ZRMD_A07. Again this is speculative I need to try this out. But I do know that SAP has various checks which checks all the naming convention and all. I'll try this out and hopefully it might work.
In the meantime any other suggestions are most invited. I am using Message type HRMD_A and using IDOC type HRM_A07

Master idoc is created but not communication idoc

Hi Experts,
Thrugh the change pointers i m sending the customer master data through idocs ,
there master idoc is creating but not the communication idocs .
it is not triggering the function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE.
How to rectify this ,, please anybody asap..
Regards

Initially, check the Partner profiles(Sending and Receiving), port definitions and Distribution model(where the model view should be distributed).
Check out for any filters added, enable change pointer also.
Cheers..

No.of transferred records do not match with delta records in RSA7

Hi,
The full update was failing since a number of days in 0vendor because of error in the source system. So I did an initialize with data transfer and corrected the PSA data and updated it using scheduler in the infoobject. In this case the number of transferred records was 24300 and added records was 0.Next I executed the delta infopackage and was expecting 0 records,since there were 0 records in rsa7. But I got 16000 records.Can you explain me why this happened?
Regards,
Shalaka

Hi Shalaka,
In which version of SAP you are working?
You might want to have a look at the table BDCP2 which is a different table that handles the delta mechanism for the change pointers.
You can reset the processing status using the program RSA1BDCP ex with following entries.
Now, coming to your issue - to verify the initial loads I am listing some basic checks(step by step).
You can give it a try in Dev/QAS if you have any restrictions in Prod.
1. Check and verify if the RSA7 delta queue is present.
2. In BW system, delete the INITIALIZATION request from infopackage - This should delete the delta queue from RSA7 in ECC system. (I am not 100% sure about this so try this once)
3. Re-initialize the datasource from BW system and note the no. of incoming records in BW. This should match with LFA1 entries.
4. Check the delta queue in RSA7 - There should be a new delta queue created
5. Start the Delta load - The should not be any records coming in to BW
6. Check the entries in table BDCP2 and its process indicator.
7. Create a new vendor from XK01 and check the entry again in BDCP2 table.
8. Run the delta again in BW and this time delta should have the newly created vendor.
Also be aware that since its a master data datasource and deals with change pointers you will not see any entries in RSA7.
A possible reason I could think of you getting 16000 records in delta is because you might have initialize the datasource is past and then started the FULL loads. So the deltas actually started accumulated in BDCP2 with processing status as BLANK and then when you triggered delta again back now all the historical deltas are processed.
This apply with BDCPV too if you are on older version of SAP.
Did you tried running delta's multiple times - you should not face any delta records when the processing status of change pointers is set to 'Processed' i.e. 'X'.
PS: You can find the message type for 0VENDOR_ATTR in ROOSGEN table. This will be useful in looking at table BDCP2.
Please let me know if there are any questions.
Thanks

Problem with IDOC Control Record

Hi All,
mine is File to Idoc scenario, everything is fine, but Idoc is posted with 56 status.Even I'm giving control record at Mapping and check the option at Idoc adapter "Apply control data from payload". Sender port is not populated at Idoc and Sender and receiver partner numbers are taken other than what I had provided at mapping. Can any one explain what can I do now.

Hi Ajay,
It depends whther u wnt to go for automatic filling of control record or filling it from the payload.
In the first case, it will fill the control record with the ALE config u hv done i.e. partner profiles and port defn in we20 & we21.
In the second case also, it will do exactly the same, but in this case there shud be a corresponding ale config to wht u r filling in the mapping. The sender, receiver ports, partners, msgtype values populated in mapping shud be exactly same as tht in ur ALE config.
So, in ur case, compare the values filled in the mappin with tht of the ALE configuration.

Akshay

How to handle the control records in case of file to idoc scenario.

Hi All,
can you please clarify me how to handle the control records in case of file to idoc scenario.

Hi,
In File to Idoc scenario even though you selected apply control record values from payload and you are not getting those correct values which you have provided in the mapping.
Also check the checkboxes Take sender from payload and Take receiver from payload along with the Apply control record values from payload checkbox

IDoc (Control Record) RCVPOR

Hi,
I'm posting an IDoc from XI to R/3 and field RCVPOR is coming out blank.
In the documentation, it says that it should be populated from the Port value in the receiver IDoc adapter.
Any Idea why it's blank? It is there in the receiver IDoc adapter settings.
Same problem with SNDPFC? (This one I don't know were the value would come from).
All the other fields in the Control Record are being populated correctly since I have the
(Apply Control record Value from Payload) checked in the IDoc adapter.
Other question, if (Apply Control record Value from Payload) is checked, is there a way to overwrite some of the values or it's all or nothing?
Rgds,
Yves

Hi Yves
> Any Idea why it's blank? It is there in the receiver

Check you have configured the port in IDX1 transaction. Should be something like SAP<SID>.
> Same problem with SNDPFC? (This one I don't know
> were the value would come from).
Do you really need this? It's rarely used. Usually just the partner type is used, not the partner function... (but read below).

In my config I also have "Apply Control record Value from Payload" checked. In the mapping I do NOT disable the control rec, but put empty constants on mandatory fields. Then you can set whatever you want, including the SNDPFC.
Let me know.

ALE / IDOC / sales order customer control record change

I'm trying to look for a "standard" answer. Here's my problem:
Record comes into SAP with a non-sap customer number that needs translated to SAP customer number.
Options I'm looking into:
1. Use the user exit and pull the customer characteristic from the customer master. Based on the characteristics then convert the control record.
2. Use the user exit at the sales order create. Based on the characteristics then convert the sales order and do not convert the control record.
3. Use standard EDPAR and convert the control record.
The problems:
If I use code to change the sold to custmer number at the control record level, I'd like to do the same thing at the detail level. The standard SAP code uses EDPAR. There are many different user exits based on the IDOC type in the system. I really don't want to change the code for each one.
EDPAR is maintained by IS. However, the customer master is in the business hands and is easily used. The customer master would be the perfered way to do things.
Any suggestions? Has anyone else had a problem with the customer number in the control record? We used to do it prior to moving the record into the SAP system. We would like to move away from that.
Thank you!
Michelle

OK so we have a strange setup. Yes, sold-to and ship-to is in the sales order.
The customer number in the control record is really our SAP sold-to number. It also is the partner number.   It is required for WE20. However when the IDOC comes into our system our customer doesn't always send the partner number. They can send their number for our company, the DUNS number or others. We have to take that number and convert it to our partner number.
While conversion from X12 to IDoc, based on the ISA ID or Sold-to party number you should map the correct SAP partner number onto the control record.
Coming to non-SAP sold-to party number in E1EDKA1 segment, the same non-sap sold-to number can be mapped to this segment but you should maintain EDPAR Entries. (VOE4).   Yes, I found that EDPAR seems to be the way SAP is expecting the conversions. However, we want our customer service to maintain the conversion.   That means that it has to be in a good format. So I could write a Z transaction over the EDPAR table for easier maintenance, or use the customer master screens. The customer master seems to be a logical place for custmer service to enter in the conversions. However, EDPAR is what SAP is expecting. So I decided to have them update the customer master via characteristics, and then use a BADI to send the information to EDPAR. Use "standard" functionality to change the control record. I believe it is a user exit.
Any questions?? I always have questions.   I think the above solution will work.   We haven't prototyped it yet.   That will happen soon.    My question was very generic and probably hard to follow.
Hopefully this clears up what I think we are going to do. Any other solutions would be appreciated.   The control record may or may not be correct when it is recieved. So we need to convert. Another requirement is that customer service has to set up the conversion values. VOE4 is not a good transaction for non-technical people to use.   So we need a better way.
Again we have voted to try the above solution. But I welcome any other suggestions.
Thannk you,
Michelle

Mapping of Control records in file to idoc scenario

Hi,
In the mapping part of file to idoc scenario is it necessary to provide the exact control record details
or will it pick what ever is mentioned ? Can any one please explain regarding the same?
Many Thanks,
Sharath

hi,
in case of apply control records from payload
It is indeed very simple to do it and the feature is available from SP10. I have seen lot of posts on the forum for the same and that is the reason for this blog. We can manipulate the control record in the mapping editor and map the EDI_DC40 segment of Idoc as required. Most of the times we need to map only SNDPRN, RCVPRN, SNDPRT, RCVPRT for posting Idocs with appropriate partner profiles in SAP R/3 destination systems. We can disable the rest of the fields as shown below. We need to manually change the control record of idoc for populating partner profiles in the control records while dealing with non-sap sender system, which will be used by receiver SAP system for posting idocs with appropriate ALE configurations.

DNS records are not 100% correct

For a while now we've been noticing that some DNS records are not correct. The records are pointing to incorrect IP addresses. One by one I open the record, update the IP, then replicate across all domain controllers.
What would cause the hostname of one machine to point to another IP address?

I believe what you're seeing is from DHCP-DNS registration. You may have duplicates, or incorrect data for records that can't be updated by DHCP service or the DHCP client due to permissions on the record. You may also not have scavenging in place.
In summary:
Configure DHCP Credentials. The credentials only need to be a plain-Jane, non-administrator, user account. But give it a really strong password.
Set DHCP to update everything, whether the clients can or cannot.
Set the zone for Secure & Unsecure Updates. Do not leave it Unsecure Only.
Add the DHCP server(s) to the Active Directory, Built-In DnsUpdateProxy security group. Make sure ALL other non-DHCP servers are NOT in the DnsUpdateProxy group. For example, some believe that the DNS servers or other DCs not running DHCP should be in it.
They must be removed or it won't work. Make sure that NO user accounts are in that group, either. (I hope that's crystal clear - you would be surprised how many will respond asking if the DHCP credentials should be in this group.)
On Windows 2008 R2 or newer, DISABLE Name Protection.
If DHCP is co-located on a Windows 2008 R2 or Windows 2012 DC, you can and must secure the DnsUpdateProxy group by running the following:
dnscmd /config /OpenAclOnProxyUpdates 0
Configure Scavenging on ONLY one DNS server. What it scavenges will replicate to others anyway. Set the scavenging NOREFRESH and REFRESH values combined to be equal or greater than the DHCP Lease length.
For specifics and step by steps, and good discussions on what's going on in the background and what to expect:
DHCP Service Configuration, Dynamic DNS Updates, Scavenging, Static Entries, Timestamps, DnsUpdateProxy Group, DHCP Credentials, prevent duplicate DNS records, DHCP has a "pen" icon, and more...

Mapping Control record?

Hi all,
iam doing File to idoc Senario and i need to map control record,How to map the control record.

phani

Hi Venkatraman,
if you want to control sender (and receiver) of an IDoc message by mapping, check "Take sender from payload" (and "Take receiver from payload") on. Map the fields of EDI_DC40:
for the sender:
SNDPRN (Sender Partner Name)
SNDPRT (Sender Partner Type)
and the receiver:
RCVPRN (Receiver Partner Name)
RCVPRT (Receiver Partner Type)
RCVPOR (Receiver Port)

Control record issue !

Hi All,
I am handling UK Payroll and got an issues related to payroll run and control record,
Issue 1: The payroll driver (RPCALCG0) has skipped around 1500 Employees against payroll run for particular period
Issue 2: How control record allowed user to Exit control record for period in which EE's skipped in payroll
Please provide your valuable suggesting in regard to resolve the above two issues,
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Devendra Reddy D.

Hi,
Issue 1: The payroll driver (RPCALCG0) has skipped around 1500 Employees against payroll run for particular period
Say you want to run payroll for FEB..
But payroll control record may not be in FEB... It may be in March..
Issue 2: How control record allowed user to Exit control record for period in which EE's skipped in payroll
Payroll control record may have been deleted on the month of Jan..& been set in Release mode in March month directly...
So feb month gets skipped & Exit mode in Feb is skipped too...
For detailed info.. Go to PA03 enter payroll ares & click display option..
Under Go To tab.. look for Control Record Log..
Regards,
Veeram
