text object in IDOC

[ramesh_kajuru]

Hi,

I am new to the idoc development, my requirement is below.

As part of our requirement, we need to post the text objects to the ORDERS05 idoc, the corresponding segment is E1EDKT1 and the fields i require to map is TDID, TDOBJECT, TDOBNAME, my problem here is the data length passed from EDI to SAP for the field TDOBNAME is 90 characters, where as the standard segment supports only 70 characters.

How to handle this in a better way. Please help me in this regard.

Many thanks.

Ramesh.

r u trying to fetch the values of header and item texts into this idoc bys using function modules READ_TEXT

using id

then this is not a problem cause

thead-tdname = will be used to pass the header text or item text where the length will not exceed more than 20

data : ghead like THEAD,

GLINE LIKE TLINE.

ghead-tdobject = 'VBBP'.

ghead-tdname = pvbdpl_tdname.

ghead-tdid = '001 '.

ghead-tdspras = sy-langu.

CALL FUNCTION 'READ_TEXT'

EXPORTING

client = sy-mandt

id = ghead-tdid

language = ghead-tdspras

name = ghead-tdname "--> line item will be as

object = ghead-tdobject

TABLES

lines = gline

EXCEPTIONS

id = 01

language = 02

name = 03

not_found = 04

object = 05

reference_check = 06.

say for header this value for sales order uumber is 5000110001 "10 for header

for item it will be 5000110001000010 "-->item

so i dont see any prob with this.

the length u will require for the text is in TLINE -TDLINE WHICH WILL TAKE 132 CHARS .

no prob u can proceed.
