Hi Gurus,

What is the difference between the 2 following statements for idoc.

data: control_record like edidc.

data: int_edidd type table of edidd with header line.

and

data: int_edi_dc type edi_dc.

data: int_edi_dd type table of edi_dd with header line.

what is the difference between

1) edidc and edi_dc

2) eidd and edi_dd

Points will be awarded

Hi Ravi,

When an IDOC is created either Inbound or Outbound the

Control record data of the IDOC is stored in the table <b>EDIDC</b> and

Data records of the IDOC are stored in the table <b>EDIDD,EDID4</b> etc..

but <b>EDI_DC and EDI_DD</b> are interface structures for Control and Data records of IDOC repectively.These structures are basically used in standard sap programs.

Hope the solution clarifies your query.

Thanks and Regards,

<b>edidc for IDOC control Record and edidd for IDOC Data record </b> are database tables

where as <b>edi_dc and edi_dd</b> are interface structures .

Hi Ravi,

I think you want to know the difference between Control Records and Data Records , Every IDOC has three types of records ,

1, Control Records - Which will have the IDOC number , from where the IDOC has come , Port details Etc.....

2, Data Records - Which is nothing but the Header and Item level datas as like as in the SAP Documents (Eg Sales Order)

3, Status Records - Which holds the Current and all the previous status of the IDOCs.

Generally in programs while creating the IDOC through codes we will populate the Control and Data records , and according to the status the status records will be generated by the system after an IDOC has written to database & Posted.

Hope this helps !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi,

The difference between is

1) edidc and edi_dc

-

---

EDIDC- It is a transparent table which holds the control record information.

EDI_DC-It is a structure.

2) edidd and edi_dd

-

---

EDIDD ->It is a structure for Data record (IDoc)

EDI_DD->it is a structure for Data record for the interface to the EDI subsystem
