Message Control tab missing

[Former Member]

I am using ABAP Trial 7.0.

In WE20 Partner Profile, I created an outbound message type. I only see the following tabs: Outbound Options, Permitted Agent, Telephony, EDI Standard. Usually the second tab is Message Control, to state the Application, Message type, and process code.

Is there something wrong with my installation? Or in NW 7 it's removed? It can't be automated since sometimes we need to put our customized process code. Any idea where is the message control tab?

Hi,

Try checking your global idoc parameter settings in transaction WE46. In particular the Idoc sys.environment parameters should be checked.

Hope it helps you,

Can you elaborate on how to use WE46? I see the title 'Settings: Error and status Processing'. I don't see anything about 'global idoc parameter settings'. There are codes EDIC, EDIP, EDIX etc. with two choices of settings, Express and Inactive.

I don't see anything that could turn on the missing 'message control tab' in my outbound parameters.

I think the MC tab is missing because I only have Basis system in the ABAP Trial. That's the error I got when I tried WE15 to test outbound processing with MC. It says MC not active in your system, test not possible if you have Basis-only system etc.
