User Exit to call program to create IDocs.

Former Member — Fri, 09 Apr 2010 13:38:45 GMT

Hi All,

For any creation/changes of material master using MM01/MM02 (after save ) one of the user exit will trigger.

From the user exit, I have to call the custom program to create MATMAS IDOCs.

if any failures in changes/creation of material master. It has to roll back eveything created by program.

Please let me know how to achieve this with out calling an event.

Thanks - Vinay

Hi Vinay,

Why don't you use the standard transaction BD10 for new material and BD21 for changed material.

There are a number of standard methods to automatically create the IDOC. You can activate the change pointers and depending on need, use BD64 to create a distribution model, and create the necessary WE20 setups to create the outbound IDOC.

If you have to process the IDOC using custom logic, you can define that as well - although it's not clear why you need a custom generating program. You can insert code into one of the IDOC user-exits to manipulate the content if needed. Also, don't overlook the pre-delivered stuff from SAP that provides filtering out of segments and the like.

There are a few good SAP PRess books about doing ALE distribution -- if this is an unfamiliar area, it's worth the cost to buy one -- if you spend any time around IDOCS, you'll appreciate it.

Hi,

Create an update function module which in turn call the function module "MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE"(Function module to create IDOC). Call the first function module in Update task during the execution of Material Master User exit.
