Create ALE Change Pointer manually in abap

[Former Member]

hi!

I need to create change pointers for a specific message type in bdcp(v) "manually". Manually means that I do not like to change the document (sales order, purchase order...) but directly create an entry in bdcp(v) to force idoc processing for a document.

Is there any standard functionality for this? I've only found some FM used very deeply in ALE processing, doesn't look like I can use them.

Thanks a lot!

Hi Roland,

Did you try using the function module CHANGE_POINTERS_CREATE_DIRECT. I haven't used it but going by the FM interface and code it seems it can create the BDCP entires directly...

You might still have to create the ALE Level customizing for Activating Change pointers and assigning Mesage Types to it...
