Question about iDoc- iDoc_xml- soap- axis- ...

Question

Hi,
I have to create iDocs, transform these iDocs into xml(iDoc_xml) and send these xmls "soaped" via a https POST to an external webservice (axis 2). The webservice should transform the xml in a xml-format who could be read by an other system. Then the transformed xml will be send to the system. In the other direction I will get state changes from the system, transform this data @ the webservice into an idoc an send this via JCO into the SAP system.
The first steps are done. I could create an idoc and send it via the Port " soaped to a http destination. But I am not able to read the data within my webservice and the https stuff doesnt work too. Could anybody tell me if there are perhaps Best Practices for this kind of "work". I think my way to send a delivery03 iDoc as an xml to a customer is not the best way. Perhaps its a better idea to send the idOc to the webservice and let the jCo transform this iDoc to XML? Is this generally possible?

Answer 1

Hi Benjamin,
In this case
E1AFKOL is the parent segment.
E1JSTKL, E1AFABL and E1AFFLL are the child for E1AFKOL.
The meaning is - for a particular parent segment there can exist 1 - 9999 child segments of E1JSTKL, E1AFABL and E1AFFLL
This is the parent child relationship
For the second question
In the table EDID4
Let us take this example
DOCNUM    SEGNUM    SEGNAM    PSGNUM     HLEVEL
1000            000001       E1AFKOL    000000        01
1000            000002       E1JSTKL     000001        02
1000            000003       E1JSTKL     000001        02
1000            000004       E1JSTKL     000001        02
1000            000005       E1AFABL     000001        02
1000            000006       E1AFABL     000001        02
1000            000007       E1AFABL     000001        02
1000            000008       E1AFFLL     000001        02
1000            000009       E1AFVOL     000008        03
1000            000010       E1AFVOL     000008        03
1000            000011       E1AFFLL     000001        02
1000            000012       E1AFVOL     000011        03
1000            000013       E1AFVOL     000011        03
1000            000014       E1AFFLL     000001        02
1000            000015       E1AFVOL     000014        03
1000            000016       E1AFVOL     000014        03
Hope this helps.
