Need to extend idoc MBGMCR03

Hi all,
I want to extend idoc MBGMCR03 to pass serial no. data since the client serial no. length is 40 chars whereas SAP supports only 18 chars. When I try to extend the idoc, I get error message 'Action is not possible for generated idoc types'.
This idoc being a ALE-BAPI interface cannot be extended.
Can anyone tell me what's the best way of passing the serial no. data through the idoc? I have thought of using segment E1BPPAREX as nothing is being passed in it. We will be having a custom process code function module in which the values will be stored in an internal table and then the fields will be cleared so that the idoc can be posted.
Thanks,
Shoma

Hi Gordon,
Cann't i extend the MBGMCR03 Idoc type .I need to add 2 fields MENGE and ELIKZ.
Do we need to have primary key field in WE31 along with MENGE and ELIKZ like Item no EBELP.
I created a structure with above 4 fields along with EBELN.
I am not able to create extension in WE30.
it is saying that " Action is not possible for generated idoc types".
Please let me know the User exit or Customer Exit  to use to populate the data.
Please help
Thanks & regards
Vishnu

  • Problem creating extended IDOC

    Hi Experts,
    I am currently working on CRM 5.0. I need to create segment and attach it to the standard basic IDOC type CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE01. I am able to create segment in WE31 but i am unable to add that to the basic standard IDOC type.
    It is displaying message "Action is not possible for generated idoc types".
    Is there any other way to add this segment to the standard IDOC.
    It will be great help if u can send me some documents on this...
    Thanks,
    Samm

    Hi,
    Create Extended IDOCe using transaction WE30.
    -If u want to extend  idoc type which already exists then use the radio button extension(where we can add few new fields
    -After this click on create button as described above. It takes you to a popup screen where you fill the description and also select the radio button accordingly and say ok
    -we go to next screen select idoc type and click on create new It gives a pop up window
    -Once you are done with the addition save the IDOC type and release the idoc type
    <b>Goto-> Edit -> Set release.</b>
    This completes the creation of Ext IDOC type.
    - Then assign this extension to the IDoc type in WE82.
    <b>Reward with points if helpful.</b>

  • Process code for extended idoc

    Hi,
    If we are creating an extended idoc, do we have to assign a new process code to it ?
    Or will the process code and the associated function module for the basic type work as well for the extended idoc ?

    Process code will come in to picture when you deal with IDOCS .. you need to assign a code which internally will have a Function module or a Include, that will have entire code to run your bussiness for an IDOC or EDI or ALE.
    Process Code is a different name for specific purposes like function module. IDocs are written in this process.
    Outbound Process Code - if you are using outbound processing under Message Control, the IDoc is generated in the IDoc Interface. The process code names the relevant function module
    Inbound Process Code - names the function module or workflow which reads the IDoc data and transfers the data to the application document.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/dc/6b7d6243d711d1893e0000e8323c4f/content.htm
    Enter transaction WE30 (ALE->Extension-> IDOC types->Maintain Idoc type)
    Type in your name of the extended IDOC type (usually starting with 'Z') and click on the Basic IDoc type, click the create icon.
    Click on Create new and enter a description and press enter.
    Click on ZIDOCTYPE01 and then on the Create icon.
    Enter ZIDOCTYPE as the segment type, 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 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 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.
    Reward points if useful.

  • Extending IDOC type

    Hi,
    Iam using the business object BUS20001 (CRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE_M) to create service order in CRM 3.1 system using LSMW. We have an addfiled in the order hence extended the IDOC type (ZCRMXIF_ORDER_SAVE_M02B), creating a new segment and attaching to the IDOC type. When i look into this extended IDOC type in the transaction WE30, all the segments has mapped to a field in the structure  CRMXIF_BUS_TRANS. But the newly created segment has no mapping. This unmapped field is not getting updated in the order created.
    Do i have to extended the structure CRMXIF_BUS_TRANS when i extend the IDOC type.Please advise if i miss any steps in extending the IDOC type.
    Regards
    Dhanapal S

    Hi Dhanapal,
    When there is a change in IDoc structure, you need to re-import in Repository.
    Also, in IDX1 transaction delete the existing meta data for the IDoc and import the meta data once again.

  • ZBATMAS03 - extended idoc segment population

    Hi,
    I've found an extended IDoc ZBATMAS03 (basic type: BATMAS03). It's being used for generating outbound IDOc usiong change pointers. A new segment Z1BATMAS has been added to the extended one.
    Now I'm not able to find where this segment is being populated.
    I tried searching in FM: MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_BATMAS and the where used list for the new segment.
    can anyone tell me how to find where the above new segment is being populated?
    regards,
    Ravi

    Hi,
    First up all the FM name is MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_BATMAS, I surprised after dont find any exit for this FM.. May be you need to copy this FM and do the changes... Yes this the FM used to create an Idoc BATMAS.
    You need to create custom function module with reference to standard FM, fill your extension segment.
    Regards,

    i have extended segment e1edpa1 with ZLOC segment in INVOIC01 idoc .now i'm filling this extended idoc from exit EXIT_SAPLIEDI_101 but it is giving me error like "EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (mandatory segment missing)" can anyone tell me what could be the reason?below is my code.
    WHEN 'E1EDPA1'.
          MOVE idoc_data-sdata TO e1edpa1.
          IF e1edpa1-parvw = 'WE'.
            SELECT SINGLE * FROM kna1 INTO w_kna1 WHERE kunnr = e1edpa1-partn.
            IF sy-subrc = 0.
              MOVE: w_kna1-locco TO zloc-locco,
                    w_kna1-bahne TO zloc-bahne.
              MOVE 'ZLOC' TO idoc_data-segnam.    " administrative section
              MOVE zloc TO idoc_data-sdata.       " data section
              APPEND idoc_data.
    thx

    Why do you need to add a segment via code in an inbound IDOC? we dont populate segments in inbound processing, rather you shoul dbe getting value from the source system in the IDOC, and reading the custom segment to process the values.
    if source is not sending the values , and you need those then you are supposed to read and process the values to move those to corresponding structure for SAP program to process the data. Adding a segment in inbound is not going to get you anything.

  • What is the need of ALE/ IDOC

    Hi All,
    What is the need of ALE/ IDoc and why we go for ALE?IDOC with conditions
    Let me know the answers if anyone have the solution
    Regards'

    ALE (Application Linking and Enabling)
    Ale Technology is SAP’s technology to support distributed yet integrated processes across several SAP systems.
    IDocs (Intermediate Documents) are the crux of ALE. These are the documents with the help of which data is exchanged between SAP R/3 and non-R/3 systems. As the name suggests, these documents act as intermediate storage of information, which can be sent bi-directionally. Message types are responsible for creation of Idocs.
    IDocs
    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.

    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)

  • Need to extend vendor to a new Purchasing Org

    Hello All,
    I am getting a flat file with existing vendors in SAP System. I need to extend these vendor to the new specified Purchase Org. and also update the fields as per in the excel file (being uploaded).
    One way is to use BDC and perform the desired functionality.
    Second method is to use the BAPI BAPI_VENDOR_CREATE, which again uses CALL TRANSACTION.
    Is there any other method to extend vendor's (except the other 2 stated above).
    Thanks in advace..!!
    Regards,
    Tarun

    Hello,
    Can be done using IDoc, by populating the various segments for basic type CREMAS05 using the new purchasing org and then passing the details to function module IDOC_INBOUND_SINGLE.
    Pass the sender and receiving systems/ports both as the same.
    Other alternative approach is using BDC; extending vendor using XK01 (for new purchasing org) and then update the extended vendor using XK02.
    Regards,
    Tarun

  • Extending Idocs.

    Hi,
    I am using an Idoc of message type Cond_a and basic type Cond_a04.The problem is that the segments in the idoc have a max no. of 1.I need to have a max of 30000.How can change the number?Can I do it by extending the idoc?Please explain to me.

    >create customized data
    >create new segment for customized data
    >create Idoc as extending idoc to basic one
    >got to partnerprofile in message control double click on process code .
    >find out the function module
    >find out exit program
    >add the required logic  save and activate.
    >process the idoc and check the idoc.

  • Extend idoc

    for extended idoc i added the extended segment to basic type and doen
    the code as per that but i would like to confirm one thing that for
    every extended idoc for process code we need to modify the existing FM
    like MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS ,
      for this FM we need to finc the enhansment and then modify the code
    as per that , so is the same for all extended idoc we need to find
    related FM for that and find enhancement and modify .

    Enter transaction WE30 (ALE->Extension-> IDOC types->Maintain Idoc type)
    - Type in your name of the extended IDOC type (usually starting with 'Z') and click on the Basic IDoc type, click the create icon.
    - Click on Create new and enter a description and press enter.
    - Click on ZIDOCTYPE01 and then on the Create icon.
    - Enter ZIDOCTYPE as the segment type, 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 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 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.
    ALE FUNCTION MODULE ENHANCEMENTS
    Having extended the IDOC type to contain additional fields for an inbound or outbound application, you now want to enhance ALE function modules for populating the additional segment on the outbound or applying the additional segment data on the inbound application.
    The core working code for ALE processes for a given application area is always encapsulated in ABAP/4 function modules. These function modules are associated with such control information as message types and process codes. So the ALE process checks this control information and derives the name of the function module to invoke for that particular IDOC processing from certain database tables. These function modules contain objects known as customer functions, which can be considered SAP Enhanced user exits. A function module is called at a particular point during the processing of the main program or function module, and it can be used to influence data processing at that point by adding code to the customer function. The customer function behaves like a normal function module and has import and export parameters, tables (internal tables) statement, and exception processing. Unlike a conventional user exit, customer functions give you the ability to modify only data available to you by the function moduleâs parameters and internal tables. While most ALE/EDI function modules are supported by customer functions, there are ALE/EDI processes that still use conventional user exits. There are a few ways to determine which function module to enhance for a given message type/process code:
    • For master data distribution, from SALE go to Extensions -> Master data distribution -> Setup additional data for message types. Search for message type DEBMAS in this example. You see an entry for DEBMAS associated with function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DEBMAS. This data is stored on table TBDME. The function module names for all master data message types follow this pattern: MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_messagetype. This function module calls another function module of name MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS or MASTERIDOC_CREATE_messagetype. Search for the words customer function, and you find several hits that can be used to add code to the function module.
    • From WEDI got to Control -> Inbound process codes -> Inbound with ALE service -> Processing by function module (transaction WE42), or from WEDI go to Control -> Outbound process codes -> Outbound with ALE service -> With function module (transaction WE41). There will be function modules associated with the process codes. For inbound, the function modules usually follow this pattern: IDOC_INPUT_messagetype: for example, IDOC_INPUT_CHRMAS for inbound characteristics master.
    • Use transaction WE57 or from WEDI go to Development -> Message/Application Object. The entries list the function module, Business Object, message type, and IDOC type that are used for inbound ALE/EDI interfaces.
    Customer functions are not specific only to ALE and EDI but also to all programs/modules in SAP R/3. Customer function is a SAP enhancement component; the other two types are menu and screen enhancements.
    All customer function exits are maintained in SAP enhancements and are found by using transaction SMOD. After executing transaction SMOD, pull down (F4) on the enhancement name field, and execute again. This provides you with a list of all SAP enhancements available. SAP enhancements are grouped by development class pertaining to an application area. Choose Application development R/3 SD master data distribution for development class VSV to lead to a screen that lists VSV00001 as an enhancement (see Figure 5). Press Component +/- to display its function exit components. There are four possible components listed, all of which are function exits (and are function modules) that are called from the ALE function modules in the form Call Customer Function Î001â. This is a special occurrence of the ABAP statement Call. Go to item Exit_SAPLVV01_ 001, which you need to enhance for the Customer Master outbound example of an IDOC extension. In the ALE-function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS, the statement CALL Customer Function 001 is translated in the background to call component EXIT_SAPLVV01_001. Although this function exit can be edited using transaction SE37, you will use a simpler approach.
    When you use SAP enhancements and their components, you manage them with an SAP object known as a project, which is like an envelope containing the selected enhancements and their components. A project can be used to control the execution of components and to transport them to other clients and instances in SAP. Basically, the process involves creating a project, including enhancements and components that are to be enhanced, editing the components, and then activating the project. The following process creates a project for our example Customer Master IDOC extension:
    • Execute transaction CMOD.
    • Enter name of project, say CSTMAST1.
    • Click on Create.
    • Enter a description of the project.
    • Save.
    • Click on SAP Enhancements.
    • Enter VSV00001 for Enhancement.
    • Save.
    Once youâve created the project, edit the function exit components and activate the project. Remember that the code in the function exit enhancement will execute only if the project is activated. In fact, this is a convenient SAP enhancements feature, whereby the work in progress (developing code in the customer function) will not affect users of that application. When the code is completed, the project can be activated so the enhanced functionality takes effect. It can also be deactivated for maintenance.
    As mentioned earlier, customer functions (function exits) are embedded in ALE function modules and can be used to influence the creation and modification of IDOC data on an outbound application or to post additional or modified IDOC data to an inbound R/3 application. Function exits are similar to regular function modules, with import/export parameters, tables (internal tables), and exceptions.
    The two important factors to consider while developing the customer function are:
    1. The point in the ALE function module where the function exit occurs
    2. The data made available by the customer function that can be modified or posted to the R/3 application, based on the direction.
    Because some function modules have several customer functions, it is critical to choose the function exit best suited for that particular enhancement. Do not attempt to perform activities that the function exit is not designed for. The importance of this point is illustrated by the following description of enhancing function modules for outbound and inbound ALE interfaces.
    Outbound interfaces. In an outbound ALE interface you use function exits (customer functions) to populate additional segments created by an IDOC extension or to modify the existing IDOC data segments as per business requirements. Previously, you identified that enhancement VSV00001 has a component EXIT_SAPLVV01_001 (function exit), which can be used for populating the additional data segment Z1SADRX that you created in the IDOC extension ZDEBMASX (IDOC type ZDEBMASZ, based on Basic IDOC type DEBMAS02). You also learned that the ALE function module that calls this function exit is MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS, which has a statement Call Customer Function 001.
    Browse the function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_DEBMAS using transaction SE37. You will find that this customer function is invoked for every segment of IDOC type DEBMAS02. In fact, the function exit is called soon after the creation of an existing segment has been populated with data and appended to the IDOC data table (internal table). Also, the function exit is exporting the message type, IDOC type, and the segment name and is importing the IDOC extension type. It is also passing the IDOC data internal table. This indicates that the ALE function module is allowing you to populate additional segments for every existing segment and modify the existing segmentâs data.
    Letâs write ABAP/4 code to accomplish the task of populating IDOC segment Z1SADRX with a contact personâs business address:
    • From SE37, display function module MASTERIDOC_CREATE_ DEBMAS.
    • Find Customer Function 001.
    • Double-click on 001.
    • The function EXIT_SAPLVV01_001 will be displayed.
    • Double-click on INCLUDE ZXVSVU01.
    • You will be asked to create a new include object. Proceed as desired.
    • Enter code (as in Listing 1).
    • Be sure to perform a main program check (Function Module -> Check -> main program) and extended program check (Function module -> Check -> Extended check).
    Now that you have extended the IDOC and enhanced the ALE function module based on the requirements for the contact personâs business address on the Customer Master, letâs test the interface. You should create a logical system and define a port for this interface. You should also configure the Customer Distribution Model to indicate that message type DEBMAS is being distributed to this logical system. The only difference in configuration between a regular outbound ALE interface and an enhanced one is the partner profile definition. While maintaining the outbound parameters of the partner profile, make sure the IDOC type is ZDEBMASZ. The fields for Basic IDOC type and extension type are automatically populated with DEBMAS02 and ZDEBMASX, respectively.
    To maintain the contact personâs business address of a customer:
    • Use transaction BD12 or from BALE go to Master Data ->Customer -> Send and send that Customer Master record by executing the transaction after filling in the relevant fields such as customer number, message type, and logical system.
    • Use transaction WE02 or WE05 to verify the IDOC created. You should see the new segment Z1SADRX populated with the correct data.
    With SAP releases below 4.5B, you cannot capture changes to business address through change pointers because a change document object is not available for capturing business address changes, and also earlier releases have not been configured to write change documents for a contact personâs business address. If you would like this functionality, you can either create change document objects, generate function modules to create change documents, and perform ALE configuration to tie it in, or make a cosmetic change to the contact person screen data while changing the contact personâs business address so that it gets captured as a change to the Customer Master. Subsequently, the ALE enhancement that you performed captures the contact personâs business address.
    Inbound interfaces. The process for enhancing inbound ALE interfaces is similar for outbound, with a few exceptions; specifically in the coding of customer functions (function exits) for the ALE/EDI function modules.
    The first step is to create an IDOC extension for the specific Basic IDOC type by adding new segments at the appropriate hierarchy level: that is, associated to the relevant existing segment. Populate the data fields on the new segments with application data by the translator or external system/program before importing them into the R/3 System. Then, find the ALE function module that is invoked by the inbound processing. By browsing through the code or reading the documentation on the function exit enhancements using the SMOD transaction, identify the function exit in which you should place your code. The technique used in the code to post the additional or modified IDOC data to the application can vary based on the application rules and requirements, the data available at that point in processing, and the application function modules available to update the application tables. It is important to search first for application modules that process the data and see if they can be called within the function exit. If the additional data in the extended segments in specific to a custom table or resides in nonkey fields of a single or small set of tables, you may be able to update it directly by SQL statements in the function exit. This approach should be carefully evaluated and is certainly not highly recommended.
    Another option is to use Call Transaction from within the function exit to process the additional data. For example, in the case of message type WMMBXY for inbound goods movements from a warehouse management system, the standard interface creates batches for materials, but does not update its characteristics. In such a case, you can use Call Transaction MSC1 to create the batch and assign characteristic values to it from within the function exit provided.

  • Need docs. for IDoc & RFC

    Hi All,
    Please help me with documents of IDoc & RFC.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Sree

    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.
    How to create idoc?

    http://www.erpgenie.com/sapedi/idoc_abap.htm
    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

    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)

    SAP ALE & IDOC<<<<
    Steps to configuration(Basis) >>
    1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client
    2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers
    3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)
    4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)
    5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)
    6. Generate partner profiles for sending system
    The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)
    • Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);

    FOr testing you can use WE19.
    RFC and BAPI:
    RFC is Remote Function Call - a function module, which can be called remotely from outside
    BAPI is also a Remote enabled function module but the difference between BAPI and RFC is in BAPI there is a bussiness object attached to it which calls SAP application internally.
    can you explain RFC and BAPI???
    The difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
    RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to R/3 from an R/3 system. Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as RFC functions in the SAP development workbench. They are then called RFC function modules. BAPIs are complete sets of (BAPI) function modules that model a business application.
    RFC is the protocol used by SAP for remote communication, that is, for communications between remote independent systems.RFC is used for communications between two independent SAP systems, or for communications between an SAP system and a non-SAP system, such as an external application. It can also be used for communications between modules on the same system.Using the RFC interfaces you can extend the functionality of R/3 applications from an external program.
    An R/3 system also contains Business Application Programming Interfaces (also called Business APIs, or BAPIs), which provide a programming interface to business objects. BAPIs are a set of methods for working with and manipulating SAP business objects.Internally, BAPIs are implemented as function modules stored in the R/3 Function Builder. Each BAPI has an equivalent internally-named function module. However, you should use the BAPI and not the function module behind it, because the BAPI provides a stable, object-oriented view of R/3 applications and data. The internal function modules or even the fact that the BAPIs are implemented as function modules are not guaranteed to remain the same in future releases of R/3.
    BAPI stands for Business Application Programming Interface.
    It is a library of functions that are released to the public
    as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external
    system.
    RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system
    by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to
    R/3 from an R/3 system.
    Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as
    RFC functions in the SAP development workbench. They are
    then called RFC function modules. BAPIs are complete sets of
    (BAPI) function modules that model a business application.
    When you are familiar with web developments: RFC can be
    compared to HTTP and BAPIs are CGI applications.
    In other words: A BAPI function is a function module that
    can be called remotely using the RFC technology.
    RFC and BAPIs are remote enabled function modules. They are practicly the same. A BAPI is one step further as it usually is a self contained business function, such as "Create Purchase Order", or "Change Sales Document". BAPIs interface is very well defined and documented. BAPIs can be found in the BAPI browser via transaction BAPI. RFCs are just remote enabled function modules.
    BAPI stands for Business Application Programming Interface. It is a library of functions that are released to the public as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external system.
    RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to R/3 from an R/3 system. Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as RFC functions in the SAP development workbench.
    BAPIs are RFCs, the only difference is that BAPIs usually encapulate some complete business object. For example, creating a sales order, the BAPI would do all of the steps required to create a sales order.

  • Help needed in Extending HeaderVO -VERY URGENT!!

    Hello,
    I need a urgent help.
    Actually I am trying to modify the exisiting Print Quote Document which is actually getting called from a template cald ASOPRINTQUOTE.xsl
    This particular xsl uses HeaderVO, LinesVO and PromptVO and hence I had to modify these xml and in turn the .java files.
    I customized it by adding the new columns thru JDeveloper and extending the VO's and substituting them
    In the process while extending the respective VO's comes a step wherein I need to specify(Thru JDeveloper) Application Short Name and Responsibility Key.
    Now the issue is this particular Quote dicument can be accessed from 2 different respons. called
    Oracle HTML Order Quoting Sales Agent(Its a OA framework with application top as QOT)
    & Quoting Sales Agent.(Its form based with Application top as ASO)
    I chose ASO as the top as all my .class files and .xml files are present in
    oracle/apps/aso/print/server
    Now then after extending the VO's and importing it etc . when I log in thru the reponsibilty
    Oracle HTML Order Quoting Sales Agent , it gets me a error of stmt exception.
    wheras
    it runs via the respon Quoting Sales Agent and reproduces a PDF output without any data??
    There are few questions I am looking out for an answer desperately.
    1) My HeaderVO, LinesVO and PromptVO are extended, so do i need to extend the links present in that in my new extended VO' s as well.
    2) My xsl stylesheet has a statement as
    select values of:....../HeaderVO/HeaderRow/....etc etc
    do i need to replace the above line to my new extended VO i.e
    select values of:....../CustHeaderVO/HeaderRow/...etc etc
    Kindly reply to me asap as I am in a development scenario..
    Do let me kow if u need more clarity on this?
    Regards,
    Ajit

    Oracle quoting is not in OAF, only the print functionality uses these VOs as data source , and are used in the xsl, for XML publisher to generate the quote print .
    1) My HeaderVO, LinesVO and PromptVO are extended, so do i need to extend the links present in that in my new extended VO' s as well.
    Please explain this , what do you mean by extending links ?2) My xsl stylesheet has a statement as
    select values of:....../HeaderVO/HeaderRow/....etc etc
    do i need to replace the above line to my new extended VO i.e
