HI Mithun..

Basic IDOC type is nothing but the IDOC type like MATMAS03, ORDERS03 etc which are delivered by SAP.

We can also Create Extended IDOC type by Adding new Segments(fields) to Basic IDOC types.

You can find them in WE30.

reward if Helpful.

Hi,

A message type represents the application message exchanged between R/3 systems and R/3 and an external system. A message type characterises the data sent across systems and relates to the structure of the data called an IDOC type.

Diff. with basic type

An basic type specifies the structure of the data.

A message type specifies the meaning of the data

Diff. b/w basictype and IDOC

A basic type is the definition of a specific data structure.
