Hi,
What are qualifiers in IDOCs and when do we come across them in creating idocs?
Thanks,

Qualifier is a field in a segment.
That value for that field will determine what type of data is contained in that segment.
for example, let us assume a segement is there for address.
and it has a qualifier field.
That qualifier field will tell whose address is it.
Is it Vendors?Customers?Sold to party's? or Ship to party's.
<b>More specific Example:
E1ADRM4 : Central Address Segment Group, Main Segment
Segment definition E2ADRM4001 Released since Release 46A , Segment length: 0952
PARTNER_Q : Qualifier for partner function
= 'WE' for Ship to party.
= 'SP' for carrier..
etc.
Meaning: the e1adrm1 will have address details of different partners involved in the business based on the PARTNER_Q value.</b>

HI Reason,
Check this out
<b>Qualifiers</b>
Qualifiers could be considered as similar to "Record Identifiers" in a flat file & Mapping rules could be established with this value.
<b>Example</b>
For example, a segment representing date fields, can have as many possible dates (such as a Sales Order Header dates can be Requested Delivery Date, Document Date etc.). In a partiuclar record, Qualifier would indicate what the date value is representing & accordingly should be treated by the subsystem (Outbound case) or by SAP (Inbound case) - as established in the Mapping rules.

Hi,
Qualifiers are like codes. They tell the system how to respond or handle the data in the idoc segments.
For example, take a idoc for a Purchase Order change (ORDCHG/ORDERS04). This Idoc will have details of the PO line items in the segments (E1EDP01). Here, in this segment the field ACTION is like a qualifier. Here, 1 means a new item was added, 2 means existing item was changed,...
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Sumant.
