Hi,

You can edit the contents of an existing IDOC using standard transaction WE05. Use WE05 to select the IDOC you wish to edit, expand the Data Records until your segment is visible, double click the segment you wish to edit (not single point and click), this should open the "Display Data Record for IDOC" screen, from the menu select Data Record -> Display -> Change, change the data and save it.

You can also use FM EDI_DOCUMENT_OPEN_FOR_EDIT and EDI_CHANGE_DATA_SEGMENTS to edit the IDoc segment(s) and save the segment changes.

Let's say you have a problem in production and your sender system can not

resend the IDoc for some reason. You know the problem was due to missing mandatory data in IDoc which cause the IDoc failed when trying to post to SAP application. Therefore, you need to edit manually to enter missing data and reprocess the IDoc as I described above.

Hi,

Usually, all issue in production handles by EDI team/administrator and in development will be handled by developer.

Again, these roles will depend on your company IT organization structure.
