Idocs- not to overwrite client data

[Former Member]

Hi all,

I am using CREMAS03 and I have an interesting requirement.

I am using file port, so on the load side I have a conversion program which manipulates idoc file and creates idocs from it.

The requirement is that I have to retain the basic data ie client level data ( like LFA1 , LFB1 etc) and extend views like LFM1 etc.

I tried with the MSGFN field but it didnt work.

Does anyone has any idea ?

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Ankur,

Just a thought, since you say you have a conversion program that creates the IDOCs.

Can you read the client data of the vendor and fill the corresponding segments of your IDOC with the selected data and then use the file contents for the extended view data segments? Basically ignore what you are getting on the file as far as the client data is concerned, yet fill the corresponding IDoc segments from the database.

Hope this helps,
