IDoc programming, we41/we42

Former Member — Tue, 21 Aug 2007 09:06:05 GMT

Hi guys!

I'm new to IDoc development and like to ask you. What is outbound fm processing good for? For inbound it is (i think) clear: when idoc received, it is processed by the appropriate fm set in we42.. But what about unbound direction? you create idoc and send it via idoc_master_distribute fm. What is outbound fm processing (we41) good for? is it some additional processing?

thanx a lot, olian

hi ,

idocs are two types

1, inbound idocs

2, outbound idocs

inbound idocs : comes from external source and they are updated to database tables of receiver.

outbound idocs: idocs which are created at sender side and are to be tranfered to receiver are called outbound idocs.

for ex: x and y are two sap systems. x created an idoc and send it to y.

for x : the idoc created is treated as outbound -

goin to other system.

for y: the same idoc is coming into it treated as inbound -

into it.

we02 r we05 -

t.code to see idocs [both inbound n outbound]

to see inbound idocs click expand------> select inbound [ same for outbound idocs]

if helpful reward some points.

with regards,

Suresh Aluri.
