MESSAGE TYPE gives the meaning of the IDOC.

IDOC is like instance of IDOC TYPE.

IDOC TYPE is the structure of IDOC.

STRUCTURE MEANS "SEGMENTS" are attached to IDOCTYPE.

SEGMENT is nothing but collection of fileds.

so based on all the above, MESSAGE TYPE should point to a structure not a single field right..........!

so, there cannot be a message type for a single field "WORK CENTER".

TELL THE STRUCTURE FOR WHICH U WANT THE MESSAGE TYPE.

Example: MATMAS is message type for Material Master
