Triggering an idoc for Quotation

Former Member — Wed, 14 Jul 2010 06:09:42 GMT

Dear experts,

I am beginner to ALE & idocs.I want to see how ALE works by triggering idoc for quotation viewed through VA23.

I want to transfer a single quotation between y Development logical clients.

Configuration is done in SALE.

Basic type is ACC_SALES_QUOTA01

Messagetype is ACC_SALES_QUOTA

E1BPACCRSO and E1BPACSQ00 are segment types.

I can also see the documentation of same in WE62

Function module in WE57 is BAPI_IDOC_INPUT1 and BAPI_IDOC_INPUTP ie two different for same basic and message type .

My first question is why so ?.Which will triggger .?

in WE41/WE42 how will i know for given functionmodule which process code is assigned?.

How can i know whether this basic type is an inbound idoc or outbound idoc or any idoc basic type can be used as outbound and inbound ?.I am little confused as i am new to ALE & idocs.

If i assume that any idoc can have any direction ie inbound as well as outbound then i should have process codes in WE41 as well as WE42 ,which is not true here.

Hi,

you can refer below link for ALE-IDOC info.

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_46c/helpdata/en/d5/edf163dcdc11d1890c0000e8216438/frameset.htm

WE41 refers to outbound process codes and WE42 refers to inbound process codes.

for quotation use SD12 process code for outbound.

Sorry, this is not the place to provide you with basic ALE/Idoc training. Please acquire this elsewhere and only ask specific questions here, one at a time, and only after unsuccessfully searching for available information.
