Hello gurus,

Can any one give me any idea for this scenario.

suppose one interface is there, where sap is interacting with legacy system through idocs.

i want to know where the error idocs will be stored.

U would be able to see all the IDOCs via WE02 transaction, whether they were successful or in error.

hiu,

IDOCS are SAP Protocol for intermediatye commn. hence whatever the state of the idoc is success/error it is stored at the sap db leb=vel. For eg. in tables EDID4, EDIDS, EDIDC.

Idoc interfaces:

Idocs are Intermediate Docs, that have a predefined specific format and used to communicate info accross the systems.

If SAP is talking to a legacy system thru IDOC we need an third party EDI system to translate the IDOC as per requirement on both ends.

Idocs can be INBOUND or OUTBOUND.

ERROR IDOCs:

SAP-INBOUND IDOCS: If there is an error during connection from legacy to EDI system, you can find error-Idoc in Legacy system. If there is connection error between EDI system and SAP you can find the error-idoc in edi system.

If there is an error in procession of the Idoc after reaching in SAP, you can see it in SAP, Tcode: WE02. If error can be fixed, you can reprocess Idoc using BD87.

SAP-Outbound Idocs: As talked above in case of connection error, the Idoc will be found in the respective source or intermediate system. If Idoc is not created at all, it will be missing in WE02. If Idoc is created, you can see the status thru WE02.

Tell me if you want specific info.

Vishal
