Custom segments to basic IDOC type without extension

Former Member — Thu, 06 Aug 2009 10:06:39 GMT

Hi,

Is it possible that an IDOC has custom segments which are getting populated and the basic type does not have any custom segments.

How should we find from where the custom segments are getting populated and displayed?

Regards,

Subhashini

Check the extension type attached to the idoc type in WE82, the custom segemnts would be populated through idoc exit. If you provide whats the Idoc type the we can able to give the exit names.

Custom segment are generated when standand basic type as well as custom basic type is used.

basic type does not have any custom segments(use code in approprite user-exit)

check we82 , we52 and also we05 to see the basic types and status of idoc generated.

hope this will clear your doubt

Hello,

Lets say in DELVRY05 Idoc Type, we have a Segment Called E1EDL20 and since this is a Standard SAP Provided Basic Type, it will not have any Custom Segments ( Z-Segments). Now, If I want some additional Information to be populated as part of a Custom Segment, what I would do is to Create an IDoc Extension ZDELVRY05 with reference to the Basic Type DELVRY05 and Create a Custom Segment Z1EDL20 (Per Say) in which I'll populate the Custom Data Fields using an Exit. So, unless we create an IDoc Extension for a Basic Type, the Standard SAP Basic Type will not have any Custom Segments-Fields (Z-Segments).

Thanks,
