Material for ale,idoc programming

Hi folks,
i need urgently the material for IDOC programming.i am mentioning the process below.
1)i have created one program. i need to send some fields to a folder through IDOCS.
when i will press a push button on my program, this idoc program should execute so that some of the fields will transfer through IDOCS.
Thanks

hi,
Intermediate Documents (IDOCs)
An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data.
The two available process for IDOCs are 1) Outbound Process 2) Inbound Process.
There are basically two types of IDOCs.:
1. Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be
     exchanged between two systems.
2. Extension Idoc: Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
-To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
1. Create Segment      ( WE31)
2. Create Idoc Type      ( WE30)
3. Create Message Type ( WE81)
4. Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)
1. Creating a Segment:
nGo to transaction code WE31
nEnter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon
nType the short text
nEnter the variable names and data elements
nSave it and go back
nGo to Edit -> Set Release
nFollow steps to create more number of segments
2. Create Idoc Type      (WE30)
nGo to transaction code WE30
nEnter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
nSelect the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
nSelect the IDOC Name and click Create icon
nThe system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
nChoose the appropriate values and press Enter
nThe system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
nFollow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
nnSave it and go back
nnGo to Edit -> Set release
3. Create Message Type (WE81)
nGo to transaction code WE81
nChange the details from Display mode to Change modenAfter selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press EnternClick New Entries to create new Message Type
nFill details
nSave it and go back
4. Assign Idoc Type to Message Type (WE82)
nGo to transaction code WE82
nChange the details from Display mode to Change moden After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter.
nClick New Entries to create new Message Type.
nFill details
nSave it and go back
There are three types of records :
nControl Record                          nData Record                                     nStatus Record
Control Record - contains the key information like destination, IDoc type, message type, port and sender information. Control records are of EDIDC type of structure.
Data Records - This contains two parts.
nAdministrative Section and Data Section
nAdministrative Section consists of Idoc number, Segment Name, Segment number, Version, Segment Hierarchy etc.
nData Section contains the data of respective segment
nData records are of EDIDD type of structure
nStatus Record - whenever a process is taken place, system will generate status records.
nWe can identify the process with the number of status record.
n01 - 49 for Outbound Process
n50 - 75 for Inbound Process
nwhen IDoc is processed the messages are:
n01 - IDoc is created
n30 - IDoc is ready for dispatch
n03 - IDoc is processed

Technical requirement's for ALE/Idoc

Hi all,
Am new for ALE/IDOC
we have requirement for ALE inbound and outbound scenarios ,
what are the mandatory requirements(port,partner profile, message type ..etc) from technical point of view for Technical consultants,
Regards
Suresh.D

Here is the step-by-step configuration approach in ALE.
- Create logical system (txn BD54)
- Assign client to Logical system (txn SCC4)
- Create RFC destination (txn SM59)
- Generate ports (txn WE21)
- Create partner profiles (txn WE20)
- Create distribution model (txn BD64)
Now you can use the required transactions like BD10 (to send materials), BD12 (to send customers), BD14 (to send vendors)....which would create the IDocs. You can view the generated IDocs via txn WE02 as you note down the system time when the IDocs are generated. You can use txn BD87 too to trace the IDocs at the sender...
If idoc is in status 51 or 52 process by program RBDMANI2 or in transaction BD87, If idoc is in 64 status process the idoc by program RBDAPP01.

Upgradation procedure for ALE/IDOCS

Can anyone let me know what is the upgradation procedure for ALE/IDOCS and what are the steps needs to be checked out during technical remediation part of version upgrade(lower version to ECC6.0)?

IDocs are backwards compatible, so I don't think you need any special procedures for them, just a regular test, to make sure everything stull works fine. If you've had extended any standard IDocs, that part will need to be reviewed, as any other custom development.
However, there might be a newer version of the IDoc type available in ECC 6.0, which you didn't have in the previous release. You might want to see if there would be any benefits in switching to the newer version.
I'm sure you'll find all the information on the Upgrade page on SAP's [web site|http://service.sap.com/upgrade]. Also there is an SAP Press book on the subject.

Need help for writing extract program

hi
i need help for writing extract program to retriew data from legacy system.
i already developed bdc programs for me31k and me21.
my requirement is to write extract program s for those t.codes.
to retriew data from legacy system and stored in flat file.

i need help with a java program. it is a program that allows the user to enter a student's GPA, number of extracurricular activities, and number of service activities. The user can not enter a gpa above 4.0 or below 0. The user can not enter a negative number for the number of both activities. If the student meets the following criteria: 1) GPA of 3.8 or above and at least one extracurricular activity and one service activity, 2) GPA below 3.8 but at least 3.4 and a total of at least three extracurricular and service activities, 3) GPA below 3.4 but at least 3.0 and at least two extracurricular activities and three service activities, the message "Scholarship candidate" should display. If the student does not meet the criteria above, then the message"not a candidate" should display. Can you help me, please?
You haven't posted ANY 'java program' for us to help with.
The forum is NOT a coding service. It is to help you with YOUR code.
Post the code you have written and SHOW us (don't just tell us) how you compile it and execute it and the results you get. Then we can help you with any problems you are are having.
If you need help understanding just what the program should be doing you need to ask your instructor to clarify the assignment.

Document need for ALE-IDOC's

Hi folks,
I am new to the area of ALE-IDOC's .
could you please provide the document for that if possible.
I want the manual steps for that with transaction codes.
Could you please provide the documentation alone for the IDOCS.
Thanks & Regards,
Surendra

Hi
Data Creation in Idoc
IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an
asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.
While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.
IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.
*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).
*Electronic Interchange Document
*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.
*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form
*IDocs exchange messages
*IDocs are used like classical interface files
IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.
WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.
An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
FOr testing you can use WE19.

To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30 )
Create Message Type ( WE81 )
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82 )
Creating a Segment
Go to transaction code WE31
Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon
Type the short text
Enter the variable names and data elements
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set Release
Follow steps to create more number of segments
Create IDOC Type
Go to transaction code WE30
Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon
The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
Choose the appropriate values and press Enter
The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set release
Create Message Type
Go to transaction code WE81
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter
Click New Entries to create new Message Type
Fill details
Save it and go back
Assign Message Type to IDoc Type
Go to transaction code WE82
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter.
Click New Entries to create new Message Type.
Fill details
Save it and go back

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...
1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.
2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.
3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.
The two available process for IDOCs are
Outbound Process
Inbound Process
AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extended IDOCs
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
Create Message Type ( WE81)
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

Performance improvement for ALE/IDOC processing

Dear experts,
Could you let me know any information to tune performance?
In our system (SAP R/3 Enterprise 6.20), material master data is distributed from one client to other clients in the same instance. It is because material master is maintained centrally, and is distributed to other clients for member companies.
During the night batch, distributing master data takes more than 2 hours. Although the distribution usually finishes without errors, we would like to explore ways to improve processing performance. Especially, program RBDMIDOC runs long time to create IDOC for MATMAS, even 0 master IDOC is set eventually.
OSS notes of the list for OS/DB/SAP parameters related to ALE/IDOC, tips in organizing batch jobs, etc, will be very appreciated.
Many Thanks,
Nori

I'd recommend to profile the program at least once to see where there's possible room for improvements. I.e. an ABAP runtime analysis and SQL trace would be good for a start. You can check out the links in thread Please Read before Posting in the Performance and Tuning Forum, which will give you some references if you need them. Once you have more details, you either know what you need to do or you can provide them and ask a more specific question (and thus you will receive much better answers).
As a general remark though I've seen often poor performance initially on the changer pointer selection, because there are too many entries in the table (due to system generating unnecessary change pointers, which should be disabled or/and lack of proper reorganization, i.e. deletion of old/processed change pointers via BD22). Sounds like this is most likely also the cause of your problem, because otherwise it's hard to explain long run times without generating any master IDocs. You can check the number of change pointers easily via view BDCPV or BDCP2 - it depends how you store your change pointers (most likely you find them via view BDCPV in a 6.20 system, unless somebody switched it to the newer BDCP2).
If you still have them in BDCPV (or the underlying tables to be more precise), check out [OSS note 305462 - MOD: Migration change pointer to table BDCP2|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/305462], which will provide you a general hint how to do that (and thus also improve the performance). However, if you're currently not deleting any old change pointers, you should ensure that a regular job runs for transaction BD22 (program RBDCPCLR). You'll easily find other (possibly relevant) OSS notes by doing a search yourself...

I need to learn ALE IDOC- Basic of ALE

Hi,
I am new to ALE IDOC, can u tell me the basic of ALE, or the sites for searching ALE.
A sample program that demonstrates the ALE, what are the transactions to be used and the Steps to implement ALE.
Thanks in advance

Hi
ALEApplication Link Enabling (ALE) is a mechanism for the
exchange of business data between loosely-coupled R/3
applications built by customers of SAP, the enterprise
resource management program. ALE provides SAP customers
with a program distribution model and technology that
enables them to interconnect programs across various
platforms and systems.

How is partner profile for ALE/IDOC transported?

Hi experts,
How is a request created for transporting configurations in ALE/idoc.
Valuable answers will be generously rewarded.
regards,
Shrita.

Hi,
some configurations are client dependent and some are client independent.
so client dependent configurations are transported to different clients using SCC1 transaction.
and client independent configurations they refelect automatically.

Urgent: Application Object Type for ALE IDoc

Hi All,
I am struggling with ALE IDoc, I just wanted to know that is it mandatory to create Application Object Type when i have created my own message type, Idoc type, segment type and Function Module. I am Getting an error while excuting transaction we42( Maintaining Process code)
Error: Application Object Type is not planned.
Please Help with this. i don't have any requirement of filtering or serialisation, so still do i need to create these application objects.
Useful ans will be rewarded.
Thanx

Hi,
Yes u need to have the assignment of Object type as ur extending the IDOC.
Check the steps below:
TCode- BD95.
Create ALE object type Z... with table name EKKO and Field name -BSART
Step2:
Tcode- BD59 Assignment of Object type to Message
Give the message type ORDERS.
Assign the object type Z........ to segment type E1EDK01 with field BSART.
