XI Demo config document for IDOC

Hi,
As per the demo doc section "5.1.4 Specifying the ALE Distribution Model (SALE)",it expalins about configuring IDOC messages to be send from R/3 to XI.Why should they add BAPI to this distribution module view XI-IDoc instead of the Idoc message type.Do i miss any thing?
Thanks,
Bharath

Hi,
one more thing:
have you registerd your queues?
sxmb_adm - manage queues
in the integration server and application servers?
if not do that and try testing your application once more

  • Transaction document for Idoc type

    Hi Experts,
    I am seeking little information about below Idoc type from POS to SAP IS Retail,
    I would like to know that, what are the transaction documents generated in SAP IS Retail after executing of below inbound idoc type.
    For example WPUUMS – It will create billing document for aggregate sales and material document for Goods movement.
    Similarly, please help me for below Idoc type.
    ·         WPUBON
    ·         WPUTAB
    ·         WPUBWB
    ·         WPUFIB
    ·         WPUKSR

    Hi Vanrajsinh,
    I'd recommend you to go through the help.sap.com POS Inbound Interface for general information;
    POS Interface - Inbound @ help.sap.com
    and then crawl through related customizing in SPRO: Sales & Distribution > POS Interface > Inbound where you'll find the document types corresponding to individual IDoc types and IMG documentation per activity is also quite 'explicit'.
    Not to leave you only with links, more information below but document types generated depend on the above config;
    WPUBON - POS interface: Upload sales docs (receipts) non-aggregated;
    Usually creates billing document and article document to post sales and goods issue per receipt, billing type and movement types can be defined in SPRO POS as above > Control Sales per receipt
    WPUFIB - POS Interface: Upload Financial Accounting Interface SRS/POS
    creates only FI posting (accounting documents) for pre-defined POS financial transactions; SPRO POS as above > Transaction Types for Financial Transactions and Trans.Type  Cotrol of Fin.Trans.
    WPUKSR - POS Upload Cashier Data
    Cashier statistics, I've only used it for statistics (RIS, no transaction documents created)
    WPUTAB - POS interface: Upload day-end closing POS / Payment List
    Creates billing document to post payment per payment type if not already posted via receipts, SPRO POS as above > Payment List Control
    WPUUMS - POS interface: Upload sales data (compressed)
    as WPUBON but aggregated sales, SPRO POS as above > Aggregated Sales Control
    WPUWBW - POS interface: Upload goods movements
    Creates article documents to post goods movements
    Note that you usually do not use all IDoc types at the same time as this would lead e.g. to posting a single receipt via multiple flows.
    Hope this helps!

    Tomas

    Hi Satya,
    while configuring a system first it is always useful to go through the help.sap.com as Vijay directed you there, thanks Vijay!!
    If you already have a picture of the entire system config in that area you are looking for, go to the IMG with the TA SPRO and check out the documentations for all the nodes you are reuqired to customize.
    In these documentations you will find descriptions, enabled values, etc for that special setting.
    Rock that!

  • What is the internal  processing for idocs

    Dear friends this is subbu working as a abap consultant.
    can any body explain the how idocs are transfered (inbound process and outbound process)

    1.Here out bound means sender.Inbound mens --receiver.
    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.
    How to create idoc?

    Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
    Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
    Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon
    The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
    Choose the appropriate values and press Enter
    The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
    Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
    Save it and go back

    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)

    SAP ALE & IDOC<<<<
    Steps to configuration(Basis) >>
    1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client
    2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers
    3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)
    4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)
    5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)
    6. Generate partner profiles for sending system
    The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)
    • Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);
    • Add appropriate message types and filters to the CDM;
    • Generate outbound partner profiles;
    • Distribute the CDM to the receiving systems; and
    • Generate inbound partner profiles on each of the clients.
    Steps to customize a new IDoc >>>
    1. Define IDoc Segment (WE31)
    2. Convert Segments into an IDoc type (WE30)
    3. Create a Message Type (WE81)
    4. Create valid Combination of Message & IDoc type(WE82)
    5. Define Processing Code(WE41 for OUT / WE42 for IN)
    6. Define Partner Profile(WE20)
    Important Transaction Codes:
    SALE - IMG ALE Configuration root
    WE20 - Manually maintain partner profiles
    BD64 - Maintain customer distribution model
    BD71 - Distribute customer distribution model
    SM59 - Create RFC Destinations
    BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)
    BD82 - Generate Partner Profiles
    BD61 - Activate Change Pointers - Globally
    BD50 - Activate Change Pointer for Msg Type
    BD52 - Activate change pointer per change.doc object
    BD59 - Allocation object type -> IDOC type
    BD56 - Maintain IDOC Segment Filters
    BD53 - Reduction of Message Types
    BD21 - Select Change Pointer
    BD87 - Status Monitor for ALE Messages
    BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)
    BD62 - Define rules
    BD79 - Maintain rules
    BD55 - Defining settings for IDoc conversion
    WEDI - ALE IDoc Administration
    WE21 - Ports in Idoc processing
    WE60 - IDoc documentation
    SARA - IDoc archiving (Object type IDOC)
    WE47 - IDoc status maintenance
    WE07 - IDoc statistics
    BALE - ALE Distribution Administration
    WE05 - IDoc overview
    BD87 - Inbound IDoc reprocessing
    BD88 - Outbound IDoc reprocessing
    BDM2 - IDoc Trace
    BDM7 - IDoc Audit Analysis
    BD21 - Create IDocs from change pointers
    SM58 - Schedule RFC Failures
    Basic config for Distributed data:
    BD64: Maintain a Distributed Model
    BD82: Generate Partner Profile
    BD64: Distribute the distribution Model
    Programs
    RBDMIDOC – Creating IDoc Type from Change Pointers
    RSEOUT00 – Process all selected IDocs (EDI)
    RBDAPP01 - Inbound Processing of IDocs Ready for Transfer
    RSARFCEX - Execute Calls Not Yet Executed
    RBDMOIND - Status Conversion with Successful tRFC Execution
    RBDMANIN - Start error handling for non-posted IDocs
    RBDSTATE - Send Audit Confirmations
    FOr testing you can use WE19.
    There are two filtering in IDoc.
    Segment Filtering:
    Segment filtering can be achieved using T/Code BD56. Here you can suppress a whole segment irrespective of data inside it . You have to give Message Type / Sender Prrtner / Receiver Partner.
    Data Filtering:
    Data filtering can be done in dustribution model (BD64) where you can restrict whole IDOCS or partials IDOCS to be send based on data in fields inside IDOC depending on whether the segment in which you filter is at the highest level or at a lower level. For example in MATMAS if you put a filter of E1MARCM for a particular plant , only data for this plant will go and other plants will be ignored.

    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)

    An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.
    Try this..Hope this will help.
    Steps to configuration(Basis) >>
    1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client
    2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers
    3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)
    4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)
    5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)
    6. Generate partner profiles for sending system
    The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)
    • Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);
    • Add appropriate message types and filters to the CDM;
    • Generate outbound partner profiles;
    • Distribute the CDM to the receiving systems; and
    • Generate inbound partner profiles on each of the clients.
    Steps to customize a new IDoc >>>

  • Need docs. for IDoc & RFC

    Hi All,
    Please help me with documents of IDoc & RFC.
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Sree

    Hi,
    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.

    RFC and BAPI:
    RFC is Remote Function Call - a function module, which can be called remotely from outside
    BAPI is also a Remote enabled function module but the difference between BAPI and RFC is in BAPI there is a bussiness object attached to it which calls SAP application internally.
    can you explain RFC and BAPI???
    The difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA. in this case u only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI.
    RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to R/3 from an R/3 system. Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as RFC functions in the SAP development workbench. They are then called RFC function modules. BAPIs are complete sets of (BAPI) function modules that model a business application.
    RFC is the protocol used by SAP for remote communication, that is, for communications between remote independent systems.RFC is used for communications between two independent SAP systems, or for communications between an SAP system and a non-SAP system, such as an external application. It can also be used for communications between modules on the same system.Using the RFC interfaces you can extend the functionality of R/3 applications from an external program.
    An R/3 system also contains Business Application Programming Interfaces (also called Business APIs, or BAPIs), which provide a programming interface to business objects. BAPIs are a set of methods for working with and manipulating SAP business objects.Internally, BAPIs are implemented as function modules stored in the R/3 Function Builder. Each BAPI has an equivalent internally-named function module. However, you should use the BAPI and not the function module behind it, because the BAPI provides a stable, object-oriented view of R/3 applications and data. The internal function modules or even the fact that the BAPIs are implemented as function modules are not guaranteed to remain the same in future releases of R/3.
    BAPI stands for Business Application Programming Interface.
    It is a library of functions that are released to the public
    as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external
    system.
    RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system
    by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to
    R/3 from an R/3 system.
    Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as
    RFC functions in the SAP development workbench. They are
    then called RFC function modules. BAPIs are complete sets of
    (BAPI) function modules that model a business application.
    When you are familiar with web developments: RFC can be
    compared to HTTP and BAPIs are CGI applications.
    In other words: A BAPI function is a function module that
    can be called remotely using the RFC technology.
    RFC and BAPIs are remote enabled function modules. They are practicly the same. A BAPI is one step further as it usually is a self contained business function, such as "Create Purchase Order", or "Change Sales Document". BAPIs interface is very well defined and documented. BAPIs can be found in the BAPI browser via transaction BAPI. RFCs are just remote enabled function modules.
    BAPI stands for Business Application Programming Interface. It is a library of functions that are released to the public as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external system.
    RFC is the protocol used to call functions in an R/3 system by a caller external to R/3 or to call programs external to R/3 from an R/3 system. Functions can only be called via RFC, if they are tagged as RFC functions in the SAP development workbench.
    BAPIs are RFCs, the only difference is that BAPIs usually encapulate some complete business object. For example, creating a sales order, the BAPI would do all of the steps required to create a sales order.

  • LSMW me51n, how to create one PR document for all the records in the  file

    HI all,
    I need to create LSMW for t-code me51n -Create Purchase Requisition. I`m using Bapi BUS2105, method CREATEFROMDATA, idoc message type PREQCR, basic type PREQCR03. The problem is that the LSMW is creating different idoc and different PR document for every record in the source file. My requirement is to create one PR document for one source file (Every source file is different Purchase Requisition) . I`m trying to do this with writing some code(global functions ) in the 'Mapping and conversion rules'  events - BEGINOF_TRANSACTION_, ENDOF_TRANSACTION__..., but i`m not very sure what exactly i`m doing .
    Please help me resolve this problem, any help will be appreciated .
    Best regards, Emil Milchev.

    Thank you for you answer.
    But I have found faster way of doing it - two source structures, one HEADER and ONE ITEM.
    HEADER: one empty text field and identificator for it.
    ITEM: everything else.
    Then everything was just fine, i`ve mapped the different IDOC segments by PREQ_ITEM fields (equal values in the source file : 10-10-10..., 20-20-20,.... etc.) and put all required fields for my LSMW

  • Change documents for created for Customer Master

    An existing program makes changes to the Customer master table KNA1. The changes are made at the table level using the UPDATE command. Since the changes are being made at table level, the change documents are not created.
    I need to create IDocs for all changes. So the question is, how to create change documents for changes to the particular fields being UPDATEd in the report program.
    I understand that a BDC program on XD01 screen should have been the best way for this, but I'm here to break-fix and trying to identify solutions with least development effort.

    Hi ganadeep,
    When an application makes any changes to an object it wrties change documents which are stored in the table CDHDR and CDPOS for each change made.
    BDCP table holds the change pointers which point to the change documents in the  CDHDR table.

    Hi Experts,
    There is a CRM job which executes LSMW and I am facing a strange problem during the IDOC posting the error "Pre Settings for IDoc inbound processing are missing error". Can anyone please tell me how to correct this error?
    Thanks in advance.
