Issue of output type RD04 through EDI

Hi Friends,
RD04 which is used for intercompany billing normally uses EDI as the transmission medium. My question is in what form the invoice receiving party (which is usually the supplying plant) gets this invoice? How exactly the person sitting at the other location views this invoice?
Also EDI being an interface, an intergral part of SAP? Does it need any other softwares to connect with SAP?
Where do we do EDI related config ?
Hope somebody is patient enough to go through my query and provide me with the needed info.
Thanks in advance
Regards
mahesh.

Hi Mahesh,
The invoice recipient may be receiving the output in any format he likes. The entire process flow is as follows.
1. An EDI output is configured in SAP and triggered while creating the invoice document.
2. Once the output is triggered, it fetches values from SAP, and creates a flat file(say a notepad file) and send that file to the Middleware(TIBCO/Mercator etc). To send the document to the correct middleware, the IP settings, RFC destination etc should be configured in
3. Now the middleware receives the data, populates the same in the table structure it has and then send the data to the receiving system based on the RFC destination it receives from SAP.
4. The data finally reaches the destinatino system where this data is processed and the transactions are executed using those values.
In the whole process, there will be programs in SAP, middleware, receiving system etc which takes care of the data formats, data processing and executing transactions.
Hope this helps you to understand how EDI works.
Configuration of EDI has to be done using output types which varies depending on the application. Generally we can do it in NACE transaction.

SD IDoc (output type RD04) requires posting on 2 separate ERP system

Dear Experts,
I am migrating current SAP system (v4.0B) to ECC6.0.
This is done by phases.
Currently, there are SD transaction on Intercompany customer posted through output type RD04 (EDI).
When ECC6 go live, the transaction above would be created on ECC6 and requires posting to Intercompany accounts still on 4.0 system. Please advice on how:
1. the EDI posting be routed from ECC6 to 4.0 system.
2. the successful posting message be captured from 4.0 system to ECC6.

Multiple issue in output type

Hello,
we have output ZROS configured. No custom enhancements. Sandard EDI output us attached to it. In the config of output type, we have "multiple issue" ticked.
1) what is the meaning of multiple issuing. does it mean, that whenever someone goes into delivery in change mode and goes out of delivery, system will give a pop up that delivery has changed and if we press save, then the output will be trigerred ?
2) We have seen whenver the shipment is created for the delivery, then the transportation planning status of delivery is changes (as per standard sap ), then we see that there is another output ZROS trigerred from delivery ? Why is the output Trigerred when transportation planning status is changed for the delivery ?
regards
Pamela

1. Once you check the 'Mulitple Issuing' box then it allows you to use more than once the same output type for the same partner.
2. Answer is on your question itself, i.e., you have checked the 'Multiple Issuing' Check box for your output type so whenever you do changes in delivery so automatically same corresponding output type will be triggered.
If you don't want this to happen for every delivery changes then you shouldn't check the box.
Please try above the step to stop multiple output trigger.

Script Form print issue with output type

hello,
i have maintained a output type for a purchase organisation in MN04, VN partner keep blank , medium 1 for print out and in date time : 4
output device is 'LOCL' "print immediately" and "release after output" are active in communication.
a message type generated when i created a PO, but it is a red light, and processing log is "Error in OPEN_FORM for document xxx".
after checked, custom script from caused this issue, but how to resolve this problem?
best regards,

Hello,
The error ME142 can have different causes like missing authorizations
or a terminated connection. Please see SAP notes 397691 and 532251. This note
states that is errors occur when purchasing documents are output, If
errors occur when purchasing documents are output, the system generates
an error message in the message log of the message overview. However,
error message ME142 'Error in OPEN_FORM for document &' contains only
the information that an error occurred and not the error cause. With the
attached source code, the error cause is also displayed in the error
message.

Issue in Output type

Hi,
We are trying to do a PGI via IDOC.
When we do that the output type is not created automatically in the delivery.
Can anyone help on this?
Regards,
Ankur Parab

Hi,
Actually the issue is when we do PGI manually the output message gets determined automatically but when we do PGI via IDOC using basic type DELVRY05 it doesn't gets maitained.
Condition records for output types were maintained. Please let me know if there is any note available for the same for ECC version.

Multiple issuing in output type?

I want to control printing times of a output type.
can I apply the function of "Multiple issuing" in a output type to "Transm. Medium" = 1?
who can give me a way?

In the config, there is an option to "Multiple issue", i am not sure if you are referring to this. If this option is checked then the system will propose this output everytime the document is opened in Change mode.
Now to answer your query reg, processing the output in a specific time you may choose the Dispatch time as "Send periodically with scheduled Job" or "Send with own transaction".Once you do this the o/p will be proposed but will be in Yellow status and you can run a job to process these outputs. I think you can run the program RSNAST00 in the b/g at specific times to process these o/ps.
Hope this helps.

Mani

Output type - LD03 issues

Hi friends,
I am having an issue with output type determination LD03 -packing slip. We are having three access sequences and condition tables. The condition records are also maintained.
Shipping point/ Route --- Printer A is assigned
Shipping Point/Delivery type---- Printer B is assigned
Shiiping point --- Printer C is assigned
When the shipping and route is 5000 and 0089 respectibely, the printer should be A. However the printer "C" is getting picked and printing there. What should be changed so that when the shipping point and route are 5000 and 0089 respectively. I have maintained a condition record with printed C. Why is the access sequence falling all the way to just shipping point???
Please advise

Dear Sanjay,
Please check the delivery or sales order route is getting determined or not.
If the route is not gettting determine then the system will pick the condition record based on shipping point only.
I hope this will help you,
Regards,
Murali.

Output types are different in VF02 than in VF03 (A particular output type Z*** does not appear in VF03)

Hi Experts,
When I check the billing document (Go to>Header>Output) there are 3 output types. After executing VF02, an output type is added (EDI). Why does this particular output type (Z***) not appear in VF03?
- What are the related configurations for this?
- Is this a possible ABAP issue? To my knowledge, custom programs usually do not result to this kind of behavior.
Thanks in advanced,
Jack

Ah, OK, that explains it. Jack, I'm sorry but it's not quite feasible to explain the whole output determination configuraton in a discussion post. Here is a wiki page if you have some time for reading. It's not very thorough but you could google for more. But it would be more efficient to just ask an SD consultant.
Also in VF02 look at the Output Determination analysis (it's somewhere in the menu in the Output screen) and see if it makes any sense to you.

Output Type Determination

Hi experts,
I have a requirement wherein if an EDI invoice output type is selected during the creation of the billing document, then all the remaining output types below that should not be selected. Please find below the screen shot of the output procedure used. Whether a customer is relevant for EDI output or not is based on different values provided in different fields and the business do not want to follow that approach.
Please provide suggestions/pointers to achieve this requirement.
Thank you,
Som

Hi
In my opinion yes. In table NAST there will be a record ofr ZINV. Taking the VOFM 101 as a template (your EDI output is ZINV), maybe, your VOFM 901
PERFORM KOBED_062.     "call vofm 62
LOOP AT XNAST WHERE KSCHL EQ 'ZINV' AND
                                        OBJKY EQ MSG_OBJKY   AND
                                       AKTIV EQ SPACE       AND
                                       VSTAT EQ '0'.
    EXIT.
ENDLOOP.
IF sy-subrc = 0. "it was found
sy-subrc = 4.     "output not created
ELSE.
su-subrc = 0.
ENDIF.
Create your VOFM (remember the note I told you in my first answer), and change the VOFM 901 for the other output types different to EDI.
Although it's for pricing, see also SAP Note 156230 - Requirements: What is permitted, what is not?.
After, debug it and fit to your requirements. During the debugging, check how XNAST is populated.
I hope this helps you

Output type for intercompany credit and debit memo

Dear SD Gurus,
I am working for the IDOC Credit and debit memo process. I have listed below the steps which I have done to get the process to be done.
1) Intercompany sales order created.
2) Delivery.
3) Invoice.(Accounting document generated)
4) Intercompany billing.(Accounting document generated)
5) Intercompany credit memo request.
6) Intercompany credit memo.(Accounting document generated).
My client requirement is "IDOC posting for intercompany credit and debit memo".
Once I have completed all the above process, I used the transaction code : "VF31"(Output for billing) to execute it. But If I have given the billing document number which is intercompany credit memo that it is not getting accepted for the output type :"RD04"(Invoice receipt-MM) in VF31. The thing is client suggested me to use the output type :RD04 for this process. But the output type RD04 is getting accepted for the intercompany billing in VF31, which means the output type RD04 is wrong?
Gurus please let me know whether IDOC for intercompany credit and debit memo is possible. If it is possible, Please let me know the correct output type should be used to execute it correctly in VF31, so that I can able to run the transaction code :WE02 for IDOC successfully.
Inputs would be highly appreciated and helpful.
Regards
Mani.

Gurus,
When I have clicked the error "G/l account 100000 1007 does not exist"
Diagnosis.
A line item is to be posted to the non existant G/l account 100000 in company code 1007.
System response.
The invalid account number is rejected.
Procedure:
If you have entered the account number, correct your entry. If the account number was rejected when the system created automatic postings , check which postings it may concern by means of the business transaction. contact the system administrator to correct the account determination for the affected transaction.
Regards
Mani.

Output type is generating for each spilt batch in the delivery

Hi All,
We are using Z output type for COA - EDI processing which uses standard program RSNASTED. I observed that output type is triggered for each individual batch in the delivery . I want to know how can I restrict to trigger output type only for item instead of each barches. Can I get some solution in the output type configuration (NACE) to trigger output type for item level.
Regards,
Uday

Udaya,
I got the fix. There was wrong output procedure maintained to the output type.
What was the reason for different output behavior for output type ZXYZ?
1.Output type-ZABC- Triggering for both item and batch
10 - Main Material - 30 EA - ZTAN- contains output determination in V/73
90001 - Batch-001 - 10 EA - ZBAT
90002 - Batch-002 - 20 EA - ZBAT
2.Output type-ZXYZ- Triggering only for Item
10 - Main Material - 30 EA - ZTAN
90001 - Batch-001 - 10 EA - ZBAT
90002 - Batch-002 - 20 EA - ZBAT
Thanks!
