A message type represents the application message exchanged between R/3 systems and R/3 and an external system. A message type characterises the data sent across systems and relates to the structure of the data called an IDOC type.

Example: MATMAS is message type for Material Master

The Intermediate Document, or IDoc, is the main component of all interface functionality in SAP

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.

An IDOC is created as a result of execution of an outbound ALE or EDI process. In an inbound ALE or EDI process, an IDOC serves as an input to create application document

An IDoc type specifies the structure of the data.

A message type specifies the meaning of the data

==================================================

An IDoc type is the definition of a specific data structure.

An IDoc is an actual instance of data based on an IDoc type. Therefore, there can be many IDocs created from a single IDoc type.

====================================================

A segment defines the format and structure of a data record.Segments are reusable components, which means they can be used

in more than one IDOC type. A segment consists of various fields that represent data in a data record.

=================================================

Segment Components

Segment type This is version independent name of the segment.

Segment definition This is version dependent definition of a segment where you specify the fields that belong to the segment

Segment documentation

=================================================

Create new IDOCs (WE30)

Create a new message type (we81)
