Interuppting/debugging response from Gentran

Former Member — Tue, 08 Jun 2004 14:21:37 GMT

Hi All;

Does anyone know if it is possible -- in SAP, not Gentran -- to debug the changing of the IDoc status from 03 to 04 to 05 for the outbound EDI IDocs? We are in a situation, which is far too long to describe, in which the EDI translation is successful through Gentran but in SAP the IDocs are ending up in status 5.

My un-educated guess is that Gentran is passing something back to SAP, SAP is looking at it and making the determination that the translation failed. That leaves two questions:

1) How can I find out what Gentran is passing to SAP?

2) What function in SAP is being executed to process the data from Gentran?

Thanks!

With Tx BD87 you can monitor all your IDOC's. Select a time frame you know that and IDoc have been processed and search for the one you need.

In this transaction you can see the IDOC and its structure.

On the other hand ones you have seen it you can use transaction WE19 and reprocess it and debug it if you need it.

I hope it helps,
