For creating a IDOC u need to Create a segment type in WE31.The internal table in which we store the data to be passed to the IDOc thos fielda are defined in fieldname and data element.Save and release the segment.

Create IDOC type in WE30. Give min and max types. Mark it as mandatory.

Create Message type in WE81.Assign it to a change request and save it.

Link this message type with IDOC type in WE82.

Then start your coding and pass the details of Data and control records.

Just have a look at these links:
