Get IDoc status messages remotely?

Sandra_Rossi — Wed, 23 Jan 2019 16:39:15 GMT

Hello,

I create a non-ABAP program which creates and execute inbound IDocs by calling the function module IDOC_INBOUND_SYNCHRONOUS remotely (IDocs to create various business objects).

This function module returns the IDoc number, but I don't find any RFC-enabled function module to retrieve the status messages which should contain the number of object created (from table EDIDS).

Is there one, or should I operate differently?

Thanks.

Sandra

Well, what about:

FUNCTION EDI_DOCUMENT_READ_ALL_STATUS.
*"----------------------------------------------------------------------
*"*"Lokale Schnittstelle:
*" IMPORTING
*" VALUE(DOCUMENT_NUMBER) LIKE EDIDC-DOCNUM
*" TABLES

*" INT_EDIDS STRUCTURE EDIDS

I tried it using transaction se37 and it can not be called alone.

3 RFC functions have to be called in sequence:

EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_READ
EDI_DOCUMENT_READ_ALL_STATUS
EDI_DOCUMENT_CLOSE_READ

What is the non-ABAP program that is able to call ABAP function modules ? Is it easy to try ? Is it free to use ?

Harald, thank you very much, I was blind. And that's a released function module, what more to ask!

chaouki.akir thank you for the very important complement 🙂 (and all of them are RFC and released)

chaouki.akir C# program using .NET Connector. Why curious? It's often requested by many SAP customers! (personally it's the first time I have to do it hence my question, and I couldn't find the answer in the forum, don't know why because it should have been a "frequent" question)
