Usage of ALE - idocs generated for BAPIs

Hi
I need to use - the std idocs generated for BUS2032 object - CREATEFROMDAT2 method to store the BAPI call ( BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 )data for those sales orders that could not be created.
If I want to use the SAP delivered BAPI ( BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 ) to call as it within an ABAP program - and then if the call did not go through - then log the data for BAPI into the corresponding idoc with the message type SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 ( idoc type SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT202 ) do I need to move the values from the BAPI structures to the idoc segments programatically ? Or since the idoc is linked to the BAPI - by definition, is there an implicit way to move data to the corresponding idoc segments and save the idoc .
Can anyone out there give me a code sample to do - what I have asked above ?

Hi,
I guess you can use function module ALE_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2 to create idoc from bapi data. You can pass the entire data in internal tables that you are passing to BAPI into above mentioned function module and then it will create an Idoc for the same. Also populate the receivers in the internal table receiver.

ALE/IDOC and RFC/BAPI Integration Scenarios with SAP DS for ESA v3

Hi,
we are planning two PoCs of Integration Plattforms. One of our major requirement set is SAP Integration into our existing SOA.
Because we also have R/3 4.7 Systems in production, we are planning to test ALE/IDOC and RFC/BAPI Integration scenarios with these Integration Plattforms.
My question is:
We are looking for are smart solution to get a SAP Test Environment, where we can test ALE/IDOC und RFC/BAPI Integration scenarios.
It is possible to do this with SAP DS for ESA v3 or shall we better use IDES for that purpose?
Best regards,
Steven

Hi Abhishek,
This is our scenario. We are doing an integration of SAP HR r/3 system with the CRM system. We need housing information details of the employees which we have in custom infotype 9310 in SAP HR system and we need those details in the CRM system. So am planning out for an ALE/IDOC approach for the integration and gonna maintain the 9310 details in a custom table. In the CRM system, we gonna build a BOL layer for accessing the 9310 details. Also i'm preparing a HLD for this process. I wanna read and go through few same HLD's before i submit my proposal to my client. Please suggest me and help me out.
Thanks in advance.

IDOC-Intermediate documents
BAPI-Business ApplicationProgramInterface
BADI-Bsuiness Addins
RFC-Remote Function call
ALE-Application liniking and enabling
The interface concept of the classic R/3 is based on two different strategies: Remote Function Calls (RFC) and data exchange through IDoc message documents. RFC makes direct and synchronous calls of a program in the remote system. If the caller is an external program it will call an RFC-enabled function in R/3 and if the calling program is the R/3 system it will call an RFC-function in another R/3-system or it will call a non-R/3 program through a gateway-proxy (usually rfcexec.exe). BAPIs are a subset of the RFC-enabled function modules, especially designed as Application Programming Interface (API) to the SAP business object, or in other words: are function modules officially released by SAP to be called from external programs.
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.
The philosophical difference between EDI and ALE can be pinned as follows: If we send data to an external partner, we generally speak of EDI, while ALE is a mechanism to reliable replicate data between trusting systems to store a redundant copy of the IDoc data. The difference is made clear, when we think of a purchase order that is sent as an IDoc. If we send the purchase order to a supplier then the supplier will store the purchase order as a sales order. However, if we send the purchase order via ALE to another R/3 system, then the receiving system will store the purchase order also as a purchase order.

IDOC ---> Will be used to sending data in Async mode ...
It is very standard and for better performance Async case
RFC --- > Function module and general will be used to make call to function
sending the function (XI has RFC adapter)
BAPI ---> Other version of RFC (Objected oriented) mostly we will use for Sync
calls (Mostly in XI using proxies we will call BAPI's)

How to find the number of idocs generated for a customer on the basis of his purchase order in a day ?

How to find the number of idocs generated for a customer on the basis of his purchase order in a day ?

Dear Friends,
I am absolutely agree with your answer .
But my question is,
Lets say.....
One customer sending X number of purchase orders in a day , so how many IDocs generated on that specific day for that specific customer .
So, Question is , How can we find the no of sales orders(IDocs) generated for the customers on the specific day ?
Hope you all understood my requirement .
Thanks & Regards,

0 idocs generated for msg type cosmas

Hi everyone..
please help out with this idoc issue
I'm trying to send data with msg type COSMAS from 800 to 810 using BD16 as follows:
it just says 0 idocs generated.
I have again gone back and checked my customizations but can't figure it out.
the steps i have done are:
create and assign logical systems
open rfc connections from both c800 and c810
create model view and assign msg type in bd64 in c800.
create partner profiles in both c800 and c810.
open port from c800 .. .DO i have to open a port from c810 as well??
Some doubts I have :
do i have to do :
"Generate the partner profiles by selecting the navigation path from the main menu, Environment --> Generate Partner profiles"
from BD64 after i create the model view and add msg type COSMAS.
regards,
allwyn

HI
no, i have not done anything relating to bd64 in c810 ..that wasn't mentioned in the notes I am following .. Do I have to repeat the same steps like I did in c800?

No Communication IDOC generating for MATMAS --- Urgent

Hi,
I have two systems in the Landscape; one is DA1 and other is DA3. Both systems are exactly identical.
When I am triggering idoc of message type MATMAS from bd10 in DA1 systems, it successfully generating MATMAS idoc and I am able to see that idoc in we02 but when I am triggering MATMAS idoc in DA3 system; it is generating Master IDOC but it is not generating Communication idoc for Message type MATMAS and in we02 as well I am not able to see any such idoc.
Both the Systems are exactly same and I have checked ALE configurations in both the systems, they are same.
Can anyone suggest, what could be the problem.
Regards,

hi,
As Bineah mentioned check the distribution model, distribute it and generate partner profile. verify all the configurations once again i hope it will do.
if any queries let me know .

Idoc generated for creation of sales order

Hi all,
In my project we have two different boxes-I and B.When a purchase order is created in I Box an idoc is triggered which goes to the B Box and creates a sales order.I want to do some changes in E1EDKA1 and E1EDPA1 segment in the idoc in I Box so that when it goes to B Box it will show the changed one.For example if there is EN in E1EDKA1 and E1EDPA1 segment then in B Box it will be appeared as ZA.I need to know that for this change I have to do the coding changes in which USER EXIT?The function module which is triggered during the sales order creation in B Box is IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS.

Hi Dirk ,
Thanks for your reply . Can we use matmas03 for loading. What will be the differences between these two IDOCS.

What is the serialization concept in ALE/IDOC?

what is the serialization concept in ALE/IDOC?

Hi Srinu ,
IDoc Serialization means, sending/posting the idocs in sequence.
We serialize IDocs in the following cases:
· If you want the Integration Server to process the corresponding IDoc XML messages in the same sequence that it receives them from the IDoc adapter at the inbound channel.
· If you want the receiver to receive the IDocs in the same sequence that the IDoc adapter sends them at the Integration Server outbound channel.
The sequence at the Integration Server inbound or outbound channel can only be guaranteed if only IDocs are processed, and not if different protocols (for example, IDocs and proxies) are processed together.
Do not confuse IDoc serialization using the IDoc adapter with the ALE serialization of IDocs.
Prerequisites
· The quality of service EOIO (Exactly Once In Order) must be specified in the message header.
· The receiver system or the sender system must be based on SAP Web Application Server 6.40 or higher. If this is not the case, the quality of service is automatically changed to EO for compatibility reasons and the message is processed accordingly.
Procedure
If you want the Integration Server to process the IDoc XML messages created by the IDoc adapter in the same sequence that the IDocs are sent by your application, proceed as follows:
· Enter a queue name in your application. You can use 16 alphanumeric characters. The prefix SAP_ALE_ is then added.
The IDoc adapter checks the prefix and replaces it with the prefix of the corresponding Integration Server inbound queue (for example, XBQI0000).
If you want the receiver to receive the IDocs in the same sequence that they are sent by the Integration Server using the IDoc adapter, proceed as follows:
· In the communication channel, select the check box Queue processing for the receiver.
The IDoc adapter replaces the prefix of the outbound queue (XBQO) with the prefix SAP_ALE_.
You can display the individual messages in the qRFC monitor of the outbound queue. To do this, do one of the following:
¡ Use the queue ID in the list of displayed messages in the monitor for processed XML messages.
¡ Use the transaction ID in the list of displayed XML messages in the IDoc adapter.
¡ Call the transaction qRFC Monitor (Outbound Queue)(SMQ1).
To navigate directly to the display of messages in the IDoc adapter, double click the transaction ID of a message in the outbound queue.
To do this, you must have registered the display program IDX_SHOW_MESSAGE for the outbound queue in the qRFC administration (transaction SMQE) beforehand.
In both cases, the function module IDOC_INBOUND_IN_QUEUE is called, which enables EOIO processing of the messages. The processing sequence is determined by the sequence of the function module calls.
Unlike the other function modules (interface versions from the communication channel), with this function module you have to transfer segment types rather than segment names in the data records.
Serialization of Messages
Use
Serialization plays an important role in distributing interdependent objects, especially when master data is being distributed.
IDocs can be created, sent and posted in a specified order by distributing message types serially.
Errors can then be avoided when processing inbound IDocs.
Interdependent messages can be serially distributed in the following ways:
Serialization by Object Type
Serialization by Message Type
Serialization at IDoc Level
(not for IDocs from generated BAPI-ALE interfaces)
Serialization at IDoc Level
Use
Delays in transferring IDocs may result in an IDoc containing data belonging to a specific object arriving at its destination before an "older" IDoc that contains different data belonging to the same object. Applications can use the ALE Serialization API to specify the order IDocs of the same message type are processed in and to prevent old IDocs from being posted if processing is repeated.
SAP recommends that you regularly schedule program RBDSRCLR to clean up table BDSER (old time stamp).
Prerequisites
IDocs generated by BAPI interfaces cannot be serialized at IDoc level because the function module for inbound processing does not use the ALE Serialization API.
Features
ALE provides two function modules to serialize IDocs which the posting function module has to invoke:
· IDOC_SERIALIZATION_CHECK
checks the time stamps in the serialization field of the IDoc header.
· IDOC_SERIAL_POST
updates the serialization table.
Check the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/0b/2a66d6507d11d18ee90000e8366fc2/frameset.htm
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/78/2175a751ce11d189570000e829fbbd/frameset.htm
Ex: ADRMAS, DEBMAS(customer)
ADRMAS, CREMAS(Vendor)
In this case, Before posting Customer Data or Vendor Data it requires Address Data.

DISTRIBUTION OF ALE IDOC

HI GURUS
i want detailed distributiuon on ale idoc processing along with transaction codes step by step
plzzz its urgent
baskar

ALE
Outbound:
Step 1. Application document is created when transaction is saved.
2. Message control is invoked.
3. Messages are processed by system.
4. Messages are Edited (if desired).
5. Output (ALE / EDI) is checked
6. Validate against Message control record from Partner Profile
7. Application Document is saved.
8. Entry NAST table is created for every selected output program
along with Medium & Timing.
9. Check for Process Immediately .
If (yes)
Determine Processing Program from TNAPR Table.
ELSE
Execute RSNASTED Program.
10. Read Partner Profile to determine Process Code.
11. Process Code points to the Function Module & Invoked.
12. IDoc is generated.
13. Check for ALE Request.
if (Yes)
Perform Filters, Conversions, Version Changes etc.
Else.
IDoc is stored in DATABASE.
INBOUND:
Step 1. EDI Subsystem creates an IDoc file from EDI Messages
2. Subsystem calls Functional Module EDI_DATA_INCOMING from startRFC program.
3. Data in Control Record is validate against the Partner Profile.
4. IDoc is generated in Database and syntax check is carried out.
5. IDoc file is deleted once file read.
6. Event PROCESSSTATE REACHED is triggered in Idoc Object Workflow.
7. Check for Process Immediately.
If NO
Execute RBDAPP01 Program
Else
Read Process Code from Partner Profile
Process Code Points to Function Module

ABOUT ALE AND IDOC
Go through this hope u can understand .
ALE/IDOC
IDOC Programming
There are two processes in IDOC processing one is INBOUND PROCESS( IDOC coming to the system and its handling at various stages) and the other is OUTBOUND PROCESS( IDOC is send to other system . Separate ABAP programs are written for these 2 processes and different configuration settings are required for each one .Depending upon the trigeering mechanism different programming approaches are used.OUTBOUND PROGRAMS handle the IDOC creation and INBOUND PROGRAMS handle the inbound IDOC and the data trasfer from the IDOC to the database tables.
NEED FOR ABAP PROGRAMMING arises if
1)New IDOC was created
Depending upon the triggering mechanism i.e change pointer,message control
etc the programming technique changes and the type of process.
2)Existing IDOC was extended
User Exits are used to populate data in new segments added and to read them
back.
3)To enhance an exsiting process.
User Exits are used .
Basic structure of an OUTBOUND PROGRAM
The basic structure of all outbound programs is same. The CONTROL
record which is of TYPE EDIDC has to be filled. It contains important fields like
IDOCTP IDOC type
MESTYP Message Type
RCVPRN Recieving Partner (Destination)
RCVPRT Partner Type (it is LS i.e Logical System)
The DATA RECORD internal table which is of TYPE EDIDD has to be filled
in the same order as there are segments in the IDOC definition.
It has 2 important fields which are to be filled ,these are
SEGNAM Name of the segment
SEGDATA Data in the segment and can be upto 1000 bytes.This field
is corresponds to each data segment in the IDOC.
e.g.
DATA INT_EDIDD LIKE EDIDD OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE.
DATA W_SEGDATA LIKE zsegment "custom segment zsegment
INT_EDIDD-SEGNAM = 'ZSEGMENT'
W_SEGDATA-field1 = value "taken from some table
W_SEGDATA-field2 = value "taken from some table
INT_EDIDD-SEGDATA = W_SEGDATA
APPEND INT_EDIDD
This will fill the data record corresponding to the segment ZSEGMENT . For all
segments the sam steps will be repeated until all the data corresponding to all the
segments in the idoc is filled in the internal table of type EDIDD.
There is only one control record and can be multile data records in the idoc
structure.
Which data is to be extracted from the tables to be filled in EDIDD type internal table is determined in standalone programs from the objects which are specified in the selection screen and from the object key passed to the function module in case of message control and is taken from BDCP table in case of change pointers using function modules "CHANGE_POINTERS_READ"
In case of stand alone programs and function modules based on change pointers method the function module "MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE" is used to send the IDOC to ALE layer for distribution ,in case of message control it is handled automatically by the RSNASTED program invoked by the message control.
OUTBOUND PROCESS AND OUTBOUND PROGRAM.
Outbound programs are used in outbound process to genearte IDOCs . There
purpose is to extract the data from the tables and to fill the IDOC data records
and the control record in the IDOC and pass ito the ALE layer for distribution to the recieving system .
Depending upon the triggering mechanism (how and when the outbound program will be started different techniques and interface is used for outbound program.
1)Message control
Application like PO(purchase order) creation use this technique , where the output type is linked to the application(Message control is a configurable cross application component which can be set in IMG .Such programs are created in the form of function modules and linked to the output type which is linked to the apllication.These have predefined interfaces.
In outbound programs(function module) that use message control the key of the
application document is passed to the function module whcig will read the data from the table depending upon the key passed(NAST structure) and fill the IDOC segemnts with the application data.The control record is also passed to the function module but is not fully filled, the rmaining fields are filled and the control is passed back to the calling program which is RSNASTED and is invoked by the
message control to process ALE and EDI output types and this program on recieving the IDOC data will create the physical IDOC in the system.
The parameteers passed to the function module are
IMPORTING PARAMETERS
OBJECT LIKE NAST
It contains documents key.
CONTROL_RECORD_IN LIKE EDIDC
It contains the partailly filled control record
EXPORETING PARAMETER
OBJECT_TYPE
CONTROL_RECORD_OUT LIKE EDIDC
TABLES
INT_EDID LIKE EDIDD
The internal table used to fill the data records in the same order as they exists in the IDOC.
The important parameters that should be filled in the custom function module are
CONTROL_RECORD_OUT and INT_EDIDD .The OBJK field of the structue NAST contains the key of the apllication document.
2)Stand alone programs
Generally used for Master Data transfer and as such depending upon the requirement can have different interfaces.The programs have a selection screen which has select options to select the objects, and parameters for specifying the recipient Logical System and the Message Type.
Data is selected based on the specified objects from the tables . and control record of type EDIDC is created and filled with important values like DIRECTION ,IDOCTP,RCVPRT,RCVPRN and MESTYP .
Data is filled in an internal table of TYPE EDIDD according to segment definitions
and in same order and the function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE is called passing the control record and the internal table containg IDOC data and importing an internal table consisting of control records for each communication IDOCS created.
3)Change pointer
Change Pointer table is read and checked if changes were made to important fields , if so the outbound program will be triggered automatically , these have predefined interfaces
ALE/IDOC Transaction
SALE Area Menu for ALE configurations.It includes transactions for
Logical System definition and linking it to a client, Transactions for
RFC Destination and Port Definition Etc.
SM59 RFC Destination
Here we specify the login settings for the destination including
the I.P address or Application Server name and the User name and
password.The information entered here is used to run Remote Function
Calls(RFC ) on the destination server .We can create number of types
of RFC Destinations but 3 types are important .
R/3 (R/3 to R/3), LS(logical system) and TCP/IP.
The name of the RFC destination should be same as that of Logical
System as it helps in creation of automatic partner profiles.
WE21 Port Definition.
There are 6 types of ports but only 2 types File and Transactional RFC
types of ports are important.
We have to specify the RFC Destination before a port can be created.
WE57 This is used to assign the Inbound function module to the Message Type
and to the IDOC Type.
WE42 This is used to define the process Code for Inbound Processing.
BD95 Define Filter object type .We can specify the field and the table it belongs
to as a filter object .
BD59 Assignment of Filter object type to the Message Type .Here we create the
link between Filter object and the segment and the message type and the
segment Field.
BD50 Set message Type to reducible.
BD65 Define Mandatory Fields.
BD64 Distribution Model . Also known as Customer Distribution Model Used to
define all the messages that will be exchanged between remote systems
and the name of thes logical systems. Any filters can also be specified.
The model once created has to be distributed on every system which will
be communicating ,It can be maintained on only One system.
BD21 Creating IDOcs from change pointers.
This can be used to create IDOCs from change pointers for a particular
message LIKE MATMAS.
BD22 This can be used to delete change pointers.
BD87 Status Monitor. Idocs can be selected base on number of criteria and there
processing status can be seen in detail.
BD10 Material Master Data Distribution .
Based on Message MATMAS.
BD12 Customer Master Data Distribution .
Based on Message CREMAS.
BD14 Vendor Master Data Distribution
Based on Message DEBMAS .
BDFG Generate ALE Interface for BAPI.
Here we specify the Business Object and the BAPI Function module for
which the interface has to be created.
WE31 Segment Editor.
This is used to create segments. We create the segment type and
segment definition is automatically created by editor e.g. Z1DUMMY is
segment type and Z2DUMMY is the segment definition .We specify the
fields and the data elements these cp\orresponds to create segments.
WE30 IDOC Editor
It is used to create a new IDOC Type or IDOC Extension .We specify the
segments that will be addd to the IDOC type.
WE02/05 IDOC List.
Various selct options and parameters are provided to select IDOCs
depending on the date, direction , mesage type etc.
WE20 Partner Profile
Here we create partner profile for each and every partner from / to which
the messages will be exchanged.There are 6 types of PF generally only
profiles of type LS(Logical System) ,KU(Customer) ,LI(Vendor) is used.
We specify the partner number and partner type and the agent and
the agent type responsible for handling of errors .
For every message send to the partner we have a outbound record and for
evry message coming from the partner we have the inbound record .
We specify the message in the otbound/inbound records ,double
clicking will take us to the detailed screen where the IDOC Type ,Port
and whether the IDCO will be immediatelt processed or collected are
mentioned.
Steps relate to idoc

but 0 communication records generated for msg.type MATMAS.
idoc is not generated
how can i rectify this erorr.
pls do helpful.
tanx in advacne .

Hi Satya,
The ALE distribution model defines which applications in your distributed systems communicate with each other and which types of data are distributed. You require a separate ALE distribution model for a Central User Administration (CUA).
In the central system, you define the structure of your Central User Administration in the model view, which you then distribute to the child systems.
Two types of data are distributed in the ALE distribution model of the CUA to be defined:
· User master data (including assigned roles and profiles)
·Company addresses
You require two methods in the distribution model to distribute user data and company addresses. These methods are realized using BAPIs of the business objects USER and UserCompany with the method clone.
You can check the following links for details.

About ALE,Idoc, EDI

sir,
what is the purpose of ALE,Idoc and EDI, what is the difference and how they will useful for sap
suggest me

Hi
can anyone send me the good links for EDI concepts.explain me a bit about the creation process .
EDI is described as the interchange of structured data according to agreed message standards between computer systems, by electronic means. Structured data equates to a simple and direct method of presenting the data content of a document. The method of ensuring the correct interpretation of the information by the computer system is defined by the EDI standard."
EDI is a technique used to communicate business transactions between computer systems of different companies and organizations. Note that sometimes the EDI mechanism deployed at a company is often used to interface to other systems within the same organization."
