IDOC message type reduction

Former Member — Tue, 18 Mar 2008 13:35:47 GMT

I have a PLM system that will be receiving Material Master Data from multiple R/3 systems.

I will need to create a reduced message type for MATMAS.

Need confirmation of steps:

1. I create a reduced message type ZMATMAS in the PLM system (BD53)

2. Activate change pointers for ZMATMAS in PLM (BD53)

3. Generate transport request for ZMATMAS in PLM (BD63)

4. Import reduced message type into all the R/3 systems (STMS)

5. Verify distribution models in R/3 systems (BD64)

6. Send material from R/3 systems to PLM system (BD10) using reduced message type

The question I have about these steps is whether I should create a reduced msg type in all the R/3 systems (multiple times) or is it ok to do it one in PLM as described above?

Please let me know if steps are correct?

Hi,

As u said that you have imported to all the other systems then there is no need to create separately. it will be available in all the systems.

but just go to the tcodes which u have mentioned and cross verify.
