Hi ALL,

Is there any FM that takes Idoc message as input and gives xml format?

Thanks

You can specify an XML Port on a partner profile. I suspect this calls a Function Module. That is how I would find out.

You can convert the IDOC (idoc number) to XML using the function module "IDX_IDOC_TO_XML".

Hi Bala,

The parameters you need to fill in IDX_IDOC_TO_XML are :-

CALL FUNCTION 'IDX_IDOC_TO_XML' "

EXPORTING

edidc40 = " edi_dc40 Control Record (IDoc)

def_typ = 'X' " char1 (X or SPACE)

syntax_check = 'X' " char1 (X or SPACE) for Syntax Check

tunnel = ' ' " char1 (X or SPACE)

rfc_codepage = " cpcodepage SAP character set identification

multi = 'X' (X or SPACE) " char1 Single-Character Flag

IMPORTING

xml_data = " string

TABLES

idoc_data_40 = " edi_dd40 IDoc Data Record for Interface to External System

EXCEPTIONS

CONVERSION_FAILED = 1 "

SYSTEM_ERROR = 2 " Internal Error

STRUCTURE_ERROR = 3 "

. " IDX_IDOC_TO_XML

You can also check FM IDOC_XML_TRANSFORM or IDOC_XML_DISPLAY . You need to pass the IDOC to this FM and get the output in xml format.

Hope it might be helpful.

Thanks,

Daya.

This function module will give XML structure only if the input parameter is idoc number.

You can use transaction code WE60 to generate the XML structure of IDOC type.

WE60 -> Enter Basic Type -> Select Menu Option "Documentation" -> XML Schema.
