Hi,

Can somebody give me the procedure to process Inbound IDoc in EDI? Also, what is the significance of QUALF in the segment definition? Which is the Exit that we need to modify to carry out validations on the data in the Inbound Idoc?

Thanks,

John.

Hi John,

Inbound idoc can be processed in two ways, using Function Module ( Posting program) and using Workflow.

a. The indound function module will be of the form IDOC_INPUT_<Messagetype>, the function module will have a process code, this will be mentioned in the message control.

b.If the incoming document need to be approved or monitored, workflow will be used instead of function module.

QUALF - is the qualfier, that is used to identify the usage of a particular field

All the function modules will have exit in it for embedding some logic.

it will start with name " customer_exit_00x" then from there you can find the corresponding exit name.

Hope it help you.
