Create IDOC type and Message Type

Former Member — Mon, 19 Jan 2009 17:23:49 GMT

Hi folks,

I have a requirement that is....

Allow user to set up by supplier to send out purchase orders through EDI with prices including taxes. In this case I'm planning to change the program ZXM06U02 to update the corresponded field as needed.

Since I need to control which message must be considered to update the field...my question is...Can a create or copy a message type? Or could I create a copy of the IDoc type?

Thanks in advance!

You don't have to create the another IDoc or message. Just write your code to update the particular field on the IDoc. For this you have to put your code in the above include.

Tks for your answer. But in this case I can not update the field in all messages. The information should be updated according the vendor. Because of that, I'm thinking to create a copy of the idoc type then the user will be able to set up the message type on partner profile. What do you think about it?

Solution adopted:

We created a copy of idoc type ORDERS02 and assign it to the same message type.
