Ideally you should schedule a program that will pick all the Master data changed / created and send them as IDOCS. YOu can do the required configuration in SPRO
Unlike transaction data, Master data IDOCS are not triggered immediately, you will have to do the required configuration in SPRO.

So there is no other way to trigger material master idoc creation? The only way is to schedule a job. I only want materials of a certain company code and material type to be triggerd. The selection screen on RBDSEMAT and RBDMIDOC does not have these options.
You can do the filtering at the distribution model level.
Data Filtering:
Data filtering can be done in dustribution model where you can restrict whole IDOCS or partials IDOCS to be send based on data in fields inside IDOC depending on whether the segment in which you filter is at the highest level or at a lower level. For example in MATMAS if you put a filter of E1MARCM for a particular plant , only data for this plant will go and other plants will be ignored.
You will have to do that in the BD64 transaction where you configure a distribution model and specify the source and target systems for the message types IDOCS that you are sending.
Take a look at BD64 and try creating a distribution model.
This for creating IDOCS only for specific data.
If you don't want specific data not to be sent, you need to create a REDUCED IDOC, that means you will have to copy the IDOC and delete whatever segments you don't want to send.
If its alright for you having a blank field that should be fine. But if you want to get rid of the field, then you will have copy the segment also and create a new one with the fields removed and add this segment to the reduced IDOC.
