Error in IDOC processing

Former Member — Tue, 29 Apr 2008 08:01:17 GMT

Hi,

I am getting the below error while using

IDOC type ORDERS05

"EDI: Syntax error in IDoc (segment cannot be identified)"

Error status 26:

The segment E1EDP17 does not occur at the current level of the basic type ORDERS05 (extension ).

This error can have several reasons:

The segment E1EDP17 is assigned to a group whose header segment does not occur.

The segment E1EDP17 does not exist in the syntax description of the basic type ORDERS05 (extension ).

The sequence of segments in the group in which the segment appears is incorrect.

Previous errors ('mandatory' segment or group missing) may be due to this error.

Can you please help me what could cause this error.

Thanks

Ankur

Hi,

This is due to hierarchical order missing in the IDOC. Check how the Order has been updated. Order might be wrongly udpdated.

i think you should add first the segment E1EDP01, and then you add E1EDP17 under it.

E1EDP01 IDoc: Document Item General Data

E1EDP17 IDoc: Document item terms of delivery

hope this helps. reward points if necessary
