Export IDoc documentation

Former Member — Wed, 01 Sep 2010 14:53:16 GMT

Hi everyone,

I am aware of a Tcode WE60 which is used to export IDoc documentation based on the message/basic type in HTML format. Is there anyway to export the IDoc documentation in text format through this Tcode? Or is there another Tcode which allows us to export the IDoc documentation in text format?

I have tried searching for it but failed. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Alpana

Hello,

In WE60, display the IDOC definition in HTML format in the screen and then click download button.

Thanks,

Venu

Yes.. but this downloads the file in .html or .htm format. Is there anyway to do this in a text format? (.txt/.docx)

Hi,

You can get the documentation of IDOC Segment declarations using WE60 -> Click on Header Button (F7). Select the menu option System -> List -> Save -> Local File for save the output.

hi,

The best way I found to do this was to run function module 'IDOC_TYPE_COMPLETE_READ

' in SE37 test mode. It lists all details concerning the IDOC type required in table output format. You can then click on the output table contents required, for example SEGMENT_STRUCT contains all segment fields, their types, descriptions, etc. Then click 'Object > Display entire list' then 'System > List > Save as > Local file' and select 'Spreadsheet'.

You then have a full list of all segments/fields of the IDoc in a spreadsheet to use for mapping/documentation, etc.

Hope this helps whoever needs this.
