Venkat,

STEP BY STEP procedure to create idoc.

Salesorder IDOC

In this example a purchase is created, using the SAP standard functionallity for creating salesorders. When the salesorder is saved, and IDOC is automatically generated. Then we use the IDOC test tool to

create an order confirmation from the salesorder IDOC.

Create Vendor

Create customer

Create partner profiles

Create purchase order

Create the order confirmation IDOC

Create vendor

Create vendor using transaction code MK01. You can also use an existing vendor.

Vendor: T-BILHFN

Purch. org. : 001

Purchase organization may vary from system to system.

Create Customer

Create a customer using transaction VD01. You could also use an existing customer.

In the follwing example the vendor 3471 is used.

Create partner profiles

Create vendor partner profile

General data

Out bound parameters

Inbound parameters

Create customer partner profile

General data

Outbound parameters

Imbound parameters

Create purchase order

Use transaction ME21 to create the purchase order

To send an IDOC when the document is finished, go to Header -> Messages and

change the output medium to EDI.

Then select Further Data and change Dispatch Time to Send immediately. This will

create the IDOC as soon as the purchase order is saved.

Save the document.

Use transaction WE02 to check that the IDOC has been created without errors

Create the order confirmation IDOC

As the system has not been configured to handle the IDOC flow, the IDOC test tool

is used to simulate the flow. The Order IDOC is used as a template to create the

order confirmation IDOC.

Transaction code: WE19

Type the number of the Order IDOC in on the start screen and select menu IDOC ->

Create to create the template.

Change the control record

Note that the name of the port SAPTST may vary from system to system. The name can be seen in the Sender

port of the IDOC

Create new E1DK02 segment

The E1DK02 Document header reference data segment includes references to other documents.

The new E1DK02 segment should be created as a copy of the existing E1DK02, and at the same level.

Change the following fields of the record:

Qualifier: 002

Document item: 10

Qualifier = IDOC qualifier reference document = 002 = Vendor order

Document item =: Item number, see the item number on the purchasing document

Create E1EDP02 segment

The E1EDP02 Document Item Reference data includes references to other documents.

Create E1EDP02 as subelement of E1EDP01 Document item General Data

Qualifier: 001

Document: 4500010757

Document item: 10

Qualifier : IDOC qualifier reference document 001 = Customer purchase order

Document : Document number – The number of the purchase order

Document item : Item number, see the item number on the purchasing document

Changing the ACTION field at header or item level

If you are working without a confirmation control key, the IDoc must have a processable action code at either

header or item level:

At header level, the segment field ACTION of segment E1EDK01 must be filled with the value '000' if the complete

purchase order is to be confirmed.

At item level, the segment field ACTION of segment E1EDP01 must be filled with the value '000' or '004' if the PO

item is to be confirmed.

Test IDOC

After the changes have been made, press the Standard Inbound button to generate the IDOC.

If no errors occurs go to transaction WE02 to check if the IDOC has been processed without errors.

If the IDOC has been processed without errors, then display the Purchase order (Transaction ME23). display the

item data and double-click on the item line. If all went well, you will now se that the field Acknowl. no. has been

filled out.

Hi,

Data Creation in Idoc

IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an

asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.

While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.

IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.

*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).

*Electronic Interchange Document

*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.

*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form

*IDocs exchange messages

*IDocs are used like classical interface files

IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.

WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.

An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.

FOr testing you can use WE19.

To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:

Create Segment ( WE31)

Create Idoc Type ( WE30 )

Create Message Type ( WE81 )

Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82 )

Creating a Segment

Go to transaction code WE31

Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon

Type the short text

Enter the variable names and data elements

Save it and go back

Go to Edit -> Set Release

Follow steps to create more number of segments

Create IDOC Type

Go to transaction code WE30

Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon

Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter

Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon

The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes

Choose the appropriate values and press Enter

The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.

Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation

Save it and go back

Go to Edit -> Set release

Create Message Type

Go to transaction code WE81

Change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message “The table is cross-client (see Help for further info)”. Press Enter

Click New Entries to create new Message Type

Fill details

Save it and go back

Assign Message Type to IDoc Type

Go to transaction code WE82

Change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message “The table is cross-client (see Help for further info)”. Press Enter.

Click New Entries to create new Message Type.

Fill details

Save it and go back

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...

1.IDOCs are stored in the database. In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.

2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.

3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.

The two available process for IDOCs are

Outbound Process

Inbound Process

AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.

Basic IDOCs

Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.

Extended IDOCs

Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.

To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:

Create Segment ( WE31)

Create Idoc Type ( WE30)

Create Message Type ( WE81)

Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.

An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.

Try this..Hope this will help.

>>>> SAP ALE & IDOC<<<<

Steps to configuration(Basis) >>

1. Create Logical System (LS) for each applicable ALE-enabled client

2. Link client to Logical System on the respective servers

3. Create background user, to be used by ALE(with authorizaton for ALE postings)

4. Create RFC Destinations(SM59)

5. Ports in Idoc processing(WE21)

6. Generate partner profiles for sending system

The functional configuration(Tcode: SALE)

• Create a Customer Distribution Model (CDM);

• Add appropriate message types and filters to the CDM;

• Generate outbound partner profiles;

• Distribute the CDM to the receiving systems; and

• Generate inbound partner profiles on each of the clients.

Steps to customize a new IDoc >>>

1. Define IDoc Segment (WE31)

2. Convert Segments into an IDoc type (WE30)

3. Create a Message Type (WE81)

4. Create valid Combination of Message & IDoc type(WE82)

5. Define Processing Code(WE41 for OUT / WE42 for IN)

6. Define Partner Profile(WE20)

Important Transaction Codes:

SALE - IMG ALE Configuration root

WE20 - Manually maintain partner profiles

BD64 - Maintain customer distribution model

BD71 - Distribute customer distribution model

SM59 - Create RFC Destinations

BDM5 - Consistency check (Transaction scenarios)

BDM7 - IDoc Audit Analysis

BD21 - Create IDocs from change pointers

SM58 - Schedule RFC Failures

Basic config for Distributed data:

BD64: Maintain a Distributed Model

BD82: Generate Partner Profile

BD64: Distribute the distribution Model

Programs

RBDMIDOC – Creating IDoc Type from Change Pointers

RSEOUT00 – Process all selected IDocs (EDI)
