Hi Folks!!!

I have a little issue. Throught LSMW transaction I am trying to create ports for IDoc Inbound Processing. (LSWM Transaction-> Settings -> IDoc Inbound Processing). Now during creation port When I enter IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS in the INBOUND FILE tab system gives me message

Function Module has not yet been entered under'Generate file name'.

Any Idea!!!

Thanks a lot in advance

Hi there,

You are using the wrong function name in that field. The function module required in that field is used to generate file or directory names at runtime. SAP recommends the FM EDI_PATH_CREATE_CLIENT_DOCNUM which will name every file differently (namely, with the number of the first IDoc contained in the file and of the client).

If you don't like to use the SAP recommended one, you can do a drop down on that field and select any other FM available in that list or you can write one of your own if such is your business requirement.

Hope this helps and don't forget to reward points.

Cheers,

Sougata.

Hi,

Double click on the message at the status bar, check if it has any more details. Also check the Directory Path you've provided when creating the file port are correct. There is a button named "Access Test" , make sure you push this button to test path is correct and system can access those directories.
