Answer 1

Hi Vijay,
There are a number of options depending upon your requirement but these are the things I would try (I don't have access to a system with inbound orders so cannot give conclusive answer).
1. Use userexits in inbound processing FM to transfer data to the application. In your case this will be IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS and CMOD exit VEDA0001 (FM EXIT_SAPLVEDA_011).  This exit is called prior to to the BDC and contains all the data from the IDOC and the IDOC number.  You could pass this data in a number of ways:
- import/export to memory
- use a common function group for all processing - place data into function group memory during EXIT_SAPLVEDA_011 and retrieve back in the sales userexits
2. The same processing FM IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS exports a flag to memory so you can detect in the sales userexits (da_edi_sign value SDEDI - see include LVEDAF01) - this will be useful for separating IDOC processing to other processing modes
3. Again using the userexit and the idoc number pass these to the application as in (1).  You should then be able to call the IDOC function modules to read the IDOC content back (with something like FM IDOC_READ_COMPLETELY).  Use this method if the data in the IDOC that you require is not parsed into the sales order tables
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Pete
