Creating an IDOC from change document.

[mahesh_jagnani]

Hi Experts,

i am facing a problem of creating an IDOC from change document.

The senario is that :-

there are 2 system and i have to craete entry in a z* table in one system and that entry will automatically go to the next system.

in first system:--

Whenever i made an entry in custom table , corresponding entry was made in table CDPOS and CDHDR.but i created a FM MASTERIDOC_CREATE_SMD_ZMAEH" and in that i call FM 'CHANGE_POINTERS_READ',But no IDOC is generated.

I activated the change pointer.

I HAVE DONE:-

BD50 (Activate change pointer for message type)

BD66 (Segment Field-Change Document field)

BD61 (Activate change pointers generally)

transaction BD52

transaction BD61.

Can you please tell me what may be the problem.

Thanks in Advance.

Hi Mahesh,

The configuration what ever you have made is for change pointers and you said you are having the entries in the CDHDR and CDPOS tables where as for change pointers you should have entries in BDCP and BDCPS table.

There is lot of difference between change pointers and change documents.

Change documents concept can be used for both Master and Transaction data where change pointers concept is used only for master data and not for transaction data.

I hope i have clarified your query.

Thanks,

Mahesh.

You say you have coded FM 'CHANGE_POINTERS_READ', but to create change pointers it should be CHANGE_POINTERS_WRITE.

I guess it was typo anyway.
