Read the documentation:

[http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/4c/df7ea1f0dd11d2b74b0000e8160175/frameset.htm]

"The IDoc type is the version number. The highest number always represents the latest version. In the list above, ORDERS04 is the most up-to-date IDoc type for sales orders."

Regards.
