If a third party system is sending a file and you want to receive it in terms of IDoc you will need a translator program. Check this link for details

Hi Ravi,

Create :

Segment Creation WE31

Basic IDOC Type Creation WE30

Message Type Creation WE81

Assign Message Type To Basic IDOC Type WE82

Assign FM to Logical Message WE57

Define I/P method for Inbound FM BD51

Create Process Code WE42

Configuring Process codes for Inbound Idocs in SAP - Supplier Relationship Management - SCN Wiki

Now for this IDoc

Define partner profile and port in WE20 and WE21.

Its a long process better would be a flat file upload.

Regards

You can also explore function module "EDI_DATA_INCOMING" which works with "FILE PORT (WE21)"

As per docmentation in SE37: The function module is used in the test program for IDoc inbound processing.
Usage example:

data: complete_filename like edi_path-pthnam,
portname like edipo-port.

* Assign values to an actual parameter
complete_filename = '/usr/sap/C11/SYS/idoc/idocs.inb'.
portname = 'EDIPORT'.
* Call FM
call function 'EDI_DATA_INCOMING'
exporting
pathname = complete_filename
port = portname
exceptions
others = 1.
