The first step in creating a new IDOC is to create all the segments that go into that IDOC. There are some rules that have to be followed while creating the segments:

The name of that segment type must start with ‘Z1’

For each field in the segment you have to define a field name, a data element for the segment structure and a data element for the segment documentation.

The data element for the segment structure has to be of data type ‘CHAR’

The IDOC tools create overall three structures:

Z1nnnnn - field names

Z2nnnnn - data elements for structure definition

Z3nnnnn - data elements for documentation

IDoc type

IDoc structure type

Receiver port/partner type/partner number

Sender port/sender type/sender number
