Change Pointer.

Former Member — Thu, 05 Apr 2007 19:26:18 GMT

Hello ....

Need some help related in change pointer....

Scenario : Customer informationo comes to SAP and IDOC gets generated from SAP .

When change pointer would be invoked in SAP ?

I want to restrict SAP to Create DEBMAS IDOC when it doesnt have some specific field in it.

I want data should be stored in SAP but SAP should send IDOC only when it has some field in it.....

thanks Pranav

pranav,

change pointer technique is based on the change document technique which keeps track of the changes made to the key document in sap like customer master, sales document etc.

BD61- enable change pointer globally.

BD50 - enable change pointer for the message type.

BD52 - specify fields for which the change pointers.

Arun.

Pranav,

You can do this way.......

Activate the Change Pointers using

In BD61, we activated the change pointers globally

In BD50, we have activated the checkbox of message type for change pointers.

In BD60, we have attached the function module to the message type.

In BD52, we have maintained change documents items for the message type.

Copy the FM <b>MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_DEBMAS</b> and you can write your own conditions before you create Idoc.
