Hi Sounder,

IDoc is defined on two levels - technical level and application level.

1) Technical view:

Control record (table of structure: EDIDC)

Data record (table of structure: EDIDD)

Status record (table of structure: EDIDS)

2) Application view

Segment

Attributes of the segment.

If you look at any of the inbound IDoc processing function modules, say: IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS, you will see the interface containing the parameters: IDOC_CONTROL (table containing control records based on structure EDIDC) and IDOC_DATA (table containing data records based on structure EDIDD). This conversion is done by the ALE interface.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Gajendra.
