Custom IDoc

Former Member — Wed, 13 May 2009 11:35:26 GMT

Can someone please tell me how I can copy the existing debmas03 to say zdebmas03 and then add a custom segment containg five fields. Please provide the transaction codes for copying the existing IDoc, creating a new segment and then attaching the new segment to zdebmas03.

Thank you

Transactions :WE30,WE31.

In we30 use extension button to copy the existing one and use WE31

to create new segement and you can add it in WE30 transaction.

Hi,

Do not go for creating entire new custom debmas03 IDOC as this will be lot of additional work, but do extend the standard to add your required fields. For Extending the IDOC Please refer below steps:


1)An Idoc can be extended using the transaction WE30.
             For example Z1DEBMAS01. Create the required custom
2) segments and insert at the required position to the
3) standard idoc type DEBMAS01. Assign your extenstion and basic idoc type in the tcodes WE82 and WE57.
4) Most Important, you will have to write Custom code for populating the Additional fields, Search for User Exits or BADIs for the same.

One more question: When a Custome IDoc is posted into SAP, how is it processed? In our case we want to add some additional fields (custom segment) to the standard debmas03. So when we post the IDoc do we have to write an ABAP program to process the customised IDoc or does SAP post the additional data as well as the standard fields? Thank you for all the information so far.

 Process Code DEBM. check thru WE42

yes you will habe to write additional coding but not any program or something, Here you will have to find the customer Exit/ BADI for Posting Function module IDOC_INPUT_DEBITOR, as this is used in process code

Hi,

With each Inbound Idoc there is a Inbound Process Code attached to it. This Inbound process code has a Function Module attached to it in which the processing is written when the Idoc hits the system.
