Set idoc status

Question

Dear experts,
i have an idoc which i work with. My Problem is:
how can i set the idoc status to 51 and mark it as corrupted ?
or how can i let the system mark it like this if it is not possible to do it myself ?
Thanks a lot and best regards
René

Presumably, the 51 status has been triggered by some error condition in your process code.  That error condition should have a message associated with it.  You should have a table or structure that stores these messages and then at the end of your processing, add those messages to the IDOC_STATUS table.  You can also add messages for status 53 (such as the document numbers that you have created), status 68, or any other status value.  Look at examples of standard process code and you'll see what I mean but here are a few code snippets:
Conditional error message:
    GV_IDOC_ERROR_FLAG = 'X'.
    GV_STATUS          = C_IDOC_STATUS_51.
    MESSAGE E199(ZCORP) WITH GS_DEL-VBELN INTO GV_MESSAGE.
    PERFORM F9999_ADD_MESSAGE.
Setting the status, adding the messages to the IDOC in a subroutine at the end of processing:
  CLEAR IDOC_STATUS.
  LOOP AT GT_MESSAGES INTO GS_MESSAGES.
    IDOC_STATUS-DOCNUM = P_DOCNUM.
    IDOC_STATUS-STATUS = GV_STATUS.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGTY  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGTY.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGID  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGID.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGNO  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGNO.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGV1  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGV1.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGV2  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGV2.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGV3  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGV3.
    IDOC_STATUS-MSGV4  = GS_MESSAGES-MSGV4.
    APPEND IDOC_STATUS.
    CLEAR  IDOC_STATUS.
  ENDLOOP.
  IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
    IDOC_STATUS-DOCNUM = P_DOCNUM.
    IDOC_STATUS-STATUS = GV_STATUS.
    APPEND IDOC_STATUS.
    CLEAR  IDOC_STATUS.
  ENDIF.
