Pick to Vioce w/SAP IDOC interface...challanges?

plans to install pick to voice technology (PSION Teklogix Tekspeech directed picking for orders within a warehouse).
Our interface will be handled with IDOC's for pick confirmations...
Is any one aware of interface challenges with the two technologies>?
Any well know challanges I can expect to tackle?

Hi,
We are going to do the same now - using tekspeech on SAP with a decentalized WM system. Did you have any issues with the interface? What interface did you use: BAPI or iDOCs?

SAP IDOC's, interfaces and BAPI's

Hi i am new to SD, can anyone give me documentation or reading material for SAP IDOC's, interfaces and BAPI's .
Help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanking you

Hi Reddy,
Very general question, I don't think you will find the answer in one document.
BAPIs are normal function modules, with predefined input and output structures to perform standard business transactions.
IDOCs are standardised interface documents to transfer data.
Once the IDOC is read, it almost always calls a BAPI to perform the business transaction.
Therefore start with reading about BAPIs since you will definately have to master those when starting to work on interfaces.
There are hundreds of BAPIs so best is to start with a specific process, example sales order create or material master create.
Try transaction BAPI, this lists most of the BAPIs and contains excellent documentation.
Thanks for your points,
Filip

Vendor Credit Memo creation in SAP via IDOC Interface (Inbound)

Hello Team,
I have a client requirement to create Vendor Invoices & Credit memo via Idoc Interface. Iam using INVOIC02 idoc type for posting Invoices and could able to create the invoice successfully. For credit memo , I'm aware that we can use the same idoc type (INVOIC02) and need to pass CRME value for the segment field BSART.
What i need is a sample Inbound INVOIC02 idoc file for credit memo to identify the required fields for successful credit memo creation.

Hi Seema,
I think you are using mi_Orders05_In_Asyn as the IDOC interface.
Use the imported idoc as the interface. i.e you dont need to create Inbound Message interface for IDOC. You can use the imported idoc structure as interface.
Let us know if that doesnt solve your problem.

Reg idoc interface

hi all,
its regarding idoc interface,try to help me.
i have a programRHALEINI and defined in Work Item WA00012 - "IDOC Extract for HR Master Data"
This IDoc will be created in SAP but not delivered to any external system.
The interface created in this work item will then read these IDOCs and the required fields will be identified and reformatted so that it can be processed by the FMS system.
Program RHALEINI is executed to create the IDocs for all employees. Refer to Work Item WA00012 - "IDOC Extract for HR Master Data
WI WA00012 will also provide Function Module Z_TP_INI_IDOCS to pull all the IDOCs needed to extract all of the employee data (latest employee extract).
The purpose of this interface program is to read all IDOCs created by program in WA00012 and map the required data into a flat file structure.
here to map i have header trailor and body data how to do this.
provide me solution asap with an example
thanking u

Hi,
Once you get the idocs then you have to read the info from these idocs and then you have to populate it into your file.
It depends on the data format that they want to create it.
cretae a file of type l_v_filename TYPE draw-filep,
then start creating header structure item structure and footer structure.
keep passing data to these structures and transfer it to file
TRANSFER l_wa_header TO l_v_filename_temp
same thing you cna do for ur item data,
loop on this and pass line by line to the file.
same way populate the footer data also.
It entirely depends ont he way they want to populate in the final file.
Reward points if you find useful.

Idoc interface not found..

I'm attempting to pull in an XML file to Idoc and I'm getting an error stating "Unable to interpret IDoc interface ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMD01" in the monitor.
I have imported the Idoc into XI and mapped to it and the translation is working fine. I have also gone into IDX1 and IDX2 on the target R/3 system and on the XI system and setup the port and Idoc in the inbound list. I have also managed the port and setup the inbound document in WE20 and WE21 on the target R/3 system.
I have a couple questions.
1. Have I done all the setup?
2. With the Idoc of ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMDAT.ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMD01 and the setup above for WE20 inbound set to ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMDAT is that sufficient?
3. Likewise with the ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMDAT.ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMD01 idoc and IDX2 set to ZINCOMINGINVOICE_CREATEFROMD01 is that sufficient?

Hello,
I encountered the same problem. If you are sure to have configure correctly your IDX2 transaction, be sure you have import the idoc in the repository under the good composant.
For example if IDOC is for R/3 4.6, import your idoc under SAP APPL 4.6C or SAP BASIS 4.6C to use it in the directory with a component that you defined before in your SLD as a SAP R/3 product.

File-IDOC, idoc interface error

Hi,
Scenario: File-IDOC (Multiple records in source file to be mapped to multiple CREMAS IDOCs) without BPM.
Modified the occurance(maxOccurs = 'unbounded') in XSD structure of IDOC(CREMAS) and saved it as external definition.
I have used this external definition in message mapping and interface mapping.
In configuration, i have used the same message interface (corresponding to external definition) as inbound interface.
Now, I get the following error.

Hi,
>>I have used this external definition in message mapping and interface mapping.
In interface mapping you need to use Imported IDOC not External definition
This solves your problem.
let me know if you have any issues still.

Hi Prakasu,
I am using PI 7.1 version .
When I opened SMICM there I am finding the HTTP Port as 52000.and the BS at SLD are also using the same Port in URL..
And when i verified with the Basis they confirmed that Exchange profile is set correctly.
But My file adapter is still not able to send the data to IS.
Than I configured a scenario file to file without IR object and in this case data is coming to IS and it is succesfull also.
what is the reason that in this case file adapter not able to push the data to IS.
I used File adapter with NFS protocol.

Query on idoc interface

Hi Experts,
i have doubt on idoc interface.we have 10 records in a idoc outbound side.
how can we send particular 3 records from those 10 records to pi
Thanks in advance
suresh

hi,
might be below blog and content those are helpful for your requirement:
Need list of Idocs for a particular Order Number
Search for a particular IDOC :
- Choose the transaction WE09 (SAP Menu -> Tools -> IDoc Interface/ALE -> Administration -> Services -> IDoc Search by Contents -> WE09).
- Choose the Data Source button to specify whether you want to search for IDocs from the database or the archive (or both).
- If you have set the Archive flag, you can select files in the archive information system or manually.

SAP(Idoc) = XI = ThirdPart(WebService)

Hello friends!
I have a problem with development of acknowledgement system with SAP(Idoc) <=> XI <=> ThirdPart(WebService) scenario.
My case:
Scenario looks like:
SAP(Idoc) <=>(Idoc adapter) XI (SOAP adapter)<=> ThirdPart(WebService)
It must work this way:
SAP system send IDOC, then XI map it and send it via SOAP-adapter to third part webservice. Then webservice answer to XI with structure сontains "TRUE" or "FALSE",
and then XI must inform SAP ALE/IDOC system if current information from idoc was successfully added to webservice or not.
But how can I get it? As far as I understand ALE/IDOC system I have to create ALEAUD by myself, put status of idoc depends on webservice return and send ALEAUD idoc to SAP.
I'am right?

Hi,
You can use BPM for this Idoc--Soap Sync Process
Design objects:
Data type & Message Type
1) Import the IDOC and Later you import the Idoc, doble click on it a export it to your driver, next import it as External Definition for reason becouse if not, you wont be able to create a MI type synch with IDOC and genericResponse structure
2) Create data type for your Response Type of IDOC
3) Import the WSDL File For Request and the Response Type
4) Create the Message types according to the Data types which we created
Messgae Interface:
1) Outbound synchronous:
 output message will be ur idoc external definition file
 input message will be ur message type that u have created.
2) Abstract Outbound Synchronous:
 use the same as in Outbound Synchronous
3) Inbound Synchronous:
 input message will be ur request message of RFC/WebService
 output message will be ur response message of RFC/Webservice
4)Abstract Inbound Sunchronous:
 input message will be ur request message of RFC/WebService
 output message will be ur response message of RFC/Webservice
Mapping
Request Message Mapping:
b/w ur idoc external definiton and request message of RFC/WS
response Message Mapping:
b/w ur Response message of RFC/WS and ur message type
Interface Mapping
Import MI(abstract) of IDOC
Import MI of WS
select the mapping for request and response Tab
BPM
1) In container window define a variable named IDoc_ABS with category abstract interface and
 type (select the MI of IDOC alone)
 define a variable named GenericRespnse_abs with category abstract interface and type (select
 MI of genericResponse alone)
2) Create a Recieve Step --> in property message select the container you define before of idoc.
3) Define a Send Step--> mode synchronous
 select MI type abstract and sync (idoc and genericResponse)
 for property request message selects container Idoc_ABS
 for property response message selects container GenericRespnse_abs.
Save your Changes and thats all for BPM
*Configuration *
1) Create scenario
 Assign BS and create comunication channels with QoS (quality of service) type BE
2) Import your BPM
 Create a Receiver Determination
-->in the target service select the BPM. Save
-->In overview windown at foot windowns select MI IDoc_abs only. nothing else
Create a Receiver Determination
-->here the system who send data is BPM
-->in the target service select the BS of receiver system.Save
-->In overview windown at foot windowns select interface mapping and assing communication channel
what we do here. the flow is next
1) Receive data from sender system and send it to BPM
2) BPM call bs of target system (WS). how? because in interface determination you selected
 before the interface mapping

SAP XML and SAP IDOC XML

Hi Friends,
Can any one tell me what is the difference between SAP XML and SAP IDOC XML?
Regards,
Kumar

Hi,
Various XML standards are supported by SAP. It presents data according to an SAP specification either in IDoc-XML or BAPI-XML, the SAP XML extensions for IDocs and BAPIs. It uses preprepared representations of the SAP interfaces to XML Commerce Business Language (xCBL) messages to facilitate communication with the MarketSet marketplaces.
Messages are stored in a generic envelope. This envelope contains metadata that controls, among other things, the routing of the messages. SAP supports two different standards for these envelopes - Microsoft BizTalk and a format similar to Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP). Packaging SAP BAPIs in a standard envelope offers several advantages, including direct processing of messages by external applications and a uniform system of error handling.

SAP IDOC to IDOC.xml

Hello All,
I have a scenario where I need to pass IDOC.xml from SAP to Legacy system: we need to pass Customer Master and Material Master to the same server.. I am using same File CC to send the IDOC.xml file to the location....
Is it possible to send the name of the file with respec to IDOC type? Suppose if MATERIAL is sending then Material.xml and if Customer then Customer.xml
How can I achieve it?? I am not using any ESA objects as I am just passing message from SAP IDOC to Legacy IDOC.xml.
Thanks
Rajeev

Hi,
I configured what you mentioend... But I am getting test.xml as I used a dummy interface name and name space as I didnt used any ESA (IR) objects.... I am jsut passing the ECC IDOC.xml to IDOC.xml to legacy applicaiton...
MATMAS01 released from ECC to sap pi.... SAP PI will pass this IDOC to Legacy applicaiton as MATMAS01.xml
DEBMAS01 released from ECC to sap pi.... SAP PI will pass this IDOC to Legacy applicaiton as DEDMAS01.xml
As I am not using any transformations and the format target system needed is idoc.xml .. I am using ID objects to forward the IDOC.xml files..
Please let me know is there any way to dynamically change the file name?
Thanks
Rajeev

SAP IDOC

Hi All,
I have few questions on SAP IDOC's
1. If we are using Standard IDOC, then is it only the config or any coding is required to populate the IDOC. Examaple Order03
2. If we Customize, then only customize fields needs to be populated or all the fields (SAP Standard and Custom fields)
Thanks & Regards
SM

Hi
1.. If we are using Standard IDOC, then is it only the config or any coding is required to populate the IDOC. Examaple Order03
Have to do complete configuration in the system.if required very less code in the fun module can be written.
see the below doc
2. If we Customize, then only customize fields needs to be populated or all the fields (SAP Standard and Custom fields)
Only code has to be written for the population of the custome fields in the custom segments of the Idoc extension in the user exit of the idoc.
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)

IDOC Interface Error

Hi Experts,
I am getting the same error: and from the forums I came to know that we need to use the IDOC name in the Interface mapping.
I used the modified IDOC structure(External Definition) in mapping, but when I select the original interface in Interface mapping I am not able to get the message mapping name.
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="">
<SAP:Category>XIAdapter</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="IDOC_ADAPTER">ATTRIBUTE_WRONG_INTF</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1>MI_IDOC_IA</SAP:P1>
<SAP:P2 />
<SAP:P3 />
<SAP:P4 />
<SAP:AdditionalText />
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
<SAP:Stack>Unable to interpret IDoc interface MI_IDOC_IA</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
please provide me some hint.
regards,
sri.

Hi Sri,
I used the modified IDOC structure(External Definition) in mapping,
but when I select the original interface in Interface mapping I am not able
to get the message mapping name
Are you following the steps as mentioned in the blog /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/04/xi-idoc-bundling--the-trick-with-the-occurance-change or SAP note 814393
Are you creating any separate Message interface after creating the External Definition?Pls don't create any separate interface.
just export the XSD of the IDOC and change the occurrence (dont save ED with any other name ,keep the same IDOC name)
now in message mapping import the XSD you save earlier. and do the mapping.
In Interface mapping and in the ID configuration use the imported IDOC name only
Regards,
Srinivas
