Massive import of IDOCS in SAP

Hello, good morning.
I've an application that is generating a lot of files that I need to import in SAP.
- What's the better way to import in SAP ?? IDOC, BAPI, etc...
- I was thinking in IDOCS....What's the way to import massively all the files of a folder ?
- Can I import and transform in IDOC these files when they're generated in the source system and traspassed to the SAP folder ??
What steps must I follow to do this ??
Thanks in advance
Albert

Hello Frederic and Gurprit,
yes, I need to make some validations in the input data.
Because of this I think I need to convert the flat files (txt) into IDOC.
Is that correct ??
My idea is to "join" all the files in the source folder into an only one (this by an UNIX script) and after this via the command "startrfc" (scheduled, of course) create the IDOCS into SAP.
I don't know yet if the schedule is better with a UNIX cron or with a SAP Job.
What's is your opinion ?
Regards,
Albert

Hi,
Just counter check following step
1. Go to SWCV definition tab select radio button for Import of RFC....
2. In Connection Data for Import from SAP System maintain correct System and correct Client.
3. Make sure you maitain ECC system in Central SLD.
4. In Import Screen check at the top of the screen have SAP System, is that system from where you want to import the IDOC.

Not able to import IDOC in SAP XI through SAP....

Hi,
I am able to see the IDOC in SAP box through we60 transaction. But its not visible while importing in Integration Repository (SAP XI).
Do i need to do any prior configuration for this...?
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Venkatesh

Just Check the Following
1. In in SCWV in the IR, Tick imoprt of IDOC and RFC allowed
2. Set in the System Information there of your SAP backend System.
3. Then Click on import and, key in the user details.
4. Check whether the user has authorizations for import ( For RFC S_RFC authorization ) is required.
Doing this an Import should be possible.

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.

How we can import an IDOC structure from one SAP system to another

Hi Gurus,
How we can import an IDOC structure from one SAP system to another? If we're using ALE, how can we do that? Please can someone give me the process and necessary t codes.
Any response will be awarded!
Thanks a lot.
Samson

hi!
Define the logical system names in both the systems.
Logical system names :SAP001
SAP002
SAP001 FOR 001 CLIENT
SAP002 FOR 002 CLIENT
These two logical system definitions should be present in both the systems.
Assign the logical systems to the client. (in both the systems)
Assign SAP001 to 001 CLIENT
Assign SAP002 to 002 CLIENT
you can See these in transaction SALE.
After this define the rfc DESTINATION IN sm59. (in both the systems)
In 001 client create the RFC destination name SAP002
In the tab log on security, give the user name and password and client of the 002 client and save it.
Similarly do the reverse in the 002 Client.
In 001 client create the port.(Transaction WE21)
Specify the RFC destination name as SAP002.
Now you can define the ports, (both the systems)
Create the partner profile for partner(ie gve logical system name of partner) , so give as SAP002.
partner profile in both the systems.
Now create the distribution model in BD64 and goto edit>model view>distribute.
The same model view will be visible n distributed to the partner system also..which in this case is sap002.
U may trigger the idoc from we19 and chk its status in we05.
Please let me know if you need further info on this.

IDoc from SAP R/3 to SAP XI

I am passing an IDoc to SAP XI. I have had to amend a bespoke segment on the IDoc. I have imported the new strucutre into XI. When I send an IDoc to XI the payload is not showing the new fields, even though they are populated correctly.
Any ideas??

Hi Martin,
delete the IDoc meta data in XI transaction IDX2 and try it again.

Problem with import of IDOC fromSAP 3.1i to PI 7.0

Hi ,
I have an IDOC as ZXYZ.ORDERS01 in SAP R/3 3.1i System, I am unable to import the IDOC in PI7.0
Let me know the process to import that idoc.
( I am Doing IDOC to File and file to IDOC Scenario )
Regards,
Edited by: TomShey on Sep 22, 2010 6:27 PM

Hi,
We also had same problem of unable to import IDOC structures automatically from SAP 3.1I to XI/PI, as the support of this feature as mentioned by SAP starts from version >= 4.0.
Please find the prerequisite as mentioned in help.sap.com
Prerequisites
The SAP system from which you want to import the RFCs or IDocs must contain function modules for calling metadata. You can import RFCs and IDocs from SAP Release 4.0 and higher. The table below gives an overview of the required support packages:
(http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/14/80243b4a66ae0ce10000000a11402f/frameset.htm)
So as per my experience, I could identify three options after indepth investigation.
1. Recreate the IDOC structures in another SAP system which is of latest version >= 4.0 may be IDES, and then import the structure in IR for further developments. This is the option we are using for our developments now.
2. Get WSDL of the IDOC structure by creating manually the structure using XML Enterprise edition using the complete syntax or xpath and import as external definitions and use it in mapping.
3. Re-create the IDOC structure in XI system itself and try to use it.
Let me know if this helped you.

Send idoc to SAP using FTP

Hi All,
The below mentioned is my requirement:
From legacy system need to send idocs i.e..
Flat File --> Data services -- via ftp -->SAP
Material master date is available in the file file.I have to fill the idoc matmas using the data services and send it to sap.
So in order to achieve this I have performed the below mentioned steps:
1.Created data store and Imported the idoc matmas from sap(All types of configurations are done)
2.created datastore for flatfile
3.mapped the fields in flatfile to idoc in dataflow.
Now here are the show stopper's for me:
1.How to send this filled idoc through ftp?
2.How to extend the idoc in data services?(if an indicator in flat file is '1' then I have to extend the material to all the plants available)
Please share ur inputs.
Thanks,
Ugandhar

Ricky,
Is it ok if you can schedule your file adapter for every 1 hour. If yes then see this weblog:
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/11/26/adapter-scheduling--hail-sp-19-
But what I see is one disadvantage. If you send Idocs from R3 it will reach to XI and will stay in XI till the adapter process it.
One other option is collect the Idocs in R3 and send to xi.

How to import the IDOC into Seeburger BIC mapping designer

Hi All,
Can u please tell me how to import the IDOC into Seeburger BIC mapping desginer.
I have scenario My scenario is SAP GTS 7.0.....>Seeburger BIS.....>Atlas customs system for Germany
Idoc coming from SAP GTS to Seeburger BIS and then convert to EDIFACT send
to Atlas systeam.
Regards,
Ramesh.

Hi Ramesh
BIC is a tool from Seeburger to transmit the XML data to EDI and EDI to XML.
Seeburger mapping programs for transferring the XML data to EDI data and EDI data to XML data, but not for the structure changing, in the IR your mapping program is same.
Receiver side you need AS2 Adapter for converting data to EDI target structure. we have many EDI versions are available, for converting the EDI to XML or vice versa AS2 gives some default mapping programs, xml to EDI or EDI to XML convertion done through this mapping programs.
Seeburger AS adapter provider provides some mapping programs(for example EDI4010 version or other), if you are using the same EDI version(4010) then you can use that mapping programs, if the version is different then we can manually generate the Seeburger X2E and E2X mappings for the corresponding version and signal(850 or 810 or ..), for this seeburger provides the mapping designer tool (BIC), there we can develope the X2E and E2X mapping programs and configure this in the Seeburger work bench.

Ramesh

File to IDOC Scenario: where to import the idoc structure?

Dear all,
I have a short organizational question for you all. I have created a scenario where the MDM server places a file in a FTP directory and XI will take it from there for processing to IDOC towards the SAP system.
During design time I need to import the IDOC structure as the inbound interface for the SAP system.
My question in this situation is: do I import the IDOC into the namespace of the MDM (in which I keep the outbound interface and the mappings) server or do I place it in the namespace of the SAP system?
I ask this because in the latter case the IDOC structure will be the only object in the SAP namespace. If I do not do this, I don't have to create this.
What is the right thing to do from an organizational point of view?
Thanks in advance for your input.

Hi Yomesh and Sudheer,
thanks for your answers. To conclude this topic I will demonstrate how I have understood this all by giving you a short overview of how I will proceed now. Could you please comment???
Sender system is a SAP MDM system. For which I will create a SWC called <Company name>_MDM_DEV version 1.0.
For the receiving SAP Enterprise system I will create an additional SWC called <Company name>_SAP_DEV version 1.0.
And thus I do not put any objects under SWCs from the original installed product components.
Then I create a SWC for common objects as IDOCs (to what product does that need to be assigned???)
Then I will put the interface and message types in the corresponding SWCs and put the mappings in the source SWC as our landscape is not that huge.
How's that???
So under which product to create the SWC for common objects is my final question...
I will provide points to you both.
Cheers,
Auke

How to import Custom idoc into IR?

I have a custom idoc and i need to map it with the receiver format after importing into IR . Please let me know the sequence of steps to import custom idoc into Integration repository?
I think I need to first import into IDX2 and then import into repository. Am I correct?

Hi Prateek,
thanks for the information .The normal standard idocs we import by searching the idoc eg- for importing matmas we type mat and we search it, since it is a standard idoc it will be available in the list (after selecting the chek box "Import of idoc or rfc interfaces from sap system permitted").
But my question is how we import custom idoc as they wont be present in the list?

How to import a idoc

hi all,
please help me for how to import a idoc into the imported objects in INTEGRATION REPOSITORY (XI)

Hi Manoj,
Just follow this sequence :
integration repository --> software component double click --> select radio button which says import of RFC and IDOC interfaces from SAP systems Permitted. --> provide the connection data for import from SAP System --> then under imported objects, you have IDoc --> right click and say import of sap objects --> then give your server details and import the IDoc you want.
I hope this makes things clear to you.

Imported Objects - IDOC

Hello,
I'm trying to find a data type that is used within another data type.
The first type is an imported object IDOC: ORDERS.ORDERS02.ZORDERS1
within this object is a data type called ZORDERS1.Z1EDPA1 and that is the data type I need to edit. I am unable to locate this type in the imported objects folders or listed as a data type under any namespaces in the Intergration Repository.
Does anyone know where I might be able to find it and edit it?
Thanks,
Matt

In XI I have an IDOC adapter that takes a PO from SAP R/3 and sends it to our SUS system. When I look at the POs being sent I see that XI uses the type ORDERS.ORDERS02.ZORDERS1 and the sender namespace is urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages. Within that type there is a sub-type (for the segment Z1EDPA1) that I need to edit.
Currently the XI shows this segment as having two data types defined within it: segment and ZZECHANGEREQID. I need this data type to show all the fields within the segment name1, name2, address, etc.
Where is this namespace urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages defined?
Thanks,
Matt

Error in importing an idoc

hi friends,
i am new to xi.when importing an idoc say from ecc5 to xi for a file to idoc scenario,I am getting this message-'System ECC is running on the specified application server. However, source system sapecc50 is specified in software component version FILE_TO_IDOC_COMP , 3.0 of sap.com Do you want to disconnect?' - Could anyone help me out.Thanks in advance

hi karthik,
this is just a message.. you can say yes and give the necessary details to connect to the system and import the idoc.
when you double click on your SCV, there is a system that is specified there.. i guess, the idoc you are trying to import is from another. hence, you can give the details of the system you want to import idoc from.
