Hello Jeeven

Firstly check the Basic type associated with your message type in Transaction WE82

Then check the segments corresponding to the basic type in WE30 which u will get in WE82

Then double click on the Segment and there is a button called Segment Editor there you can get all the details which u want related to fields

Hai..Hitesh,

thx for the reply.

Yes i am going through that .I think even we 60 can also help me..

but i am not getting a clear idea on how could i get the data and even i get that could I be able to expose that in a RFC function module.

Because every time the structure will be different.

Please let me know abt this.

Hello experts,

Please participate .........

To redefine my objective I will say:--

I am trying to do some thing very similar that is there in XI .

You might have seen the way IDOCs are shown while mapping an idoc structure.

Its like you select a message type and u get all the list of Idoc Structure shown .

I am really relying on you people.

Kumar,

Initially get the Idoc type associated with the Message type EDIMSG by passing the Message type.

Now refer the subroutine 'start_schema_docu' of the standard include MSEDIDOCUF01 to know the logic to create the XML schema.

Hi kiran,

Thx a lot or the reply.

Exactly i too i was think the same way .

Have you even came across segment_read function module .

Even that does a lot of work ,but if u pass the segment name.

So i am trying to know how to get th elist of all the segments of a particular message type.

Thanks to all the participants for there valuable inputs.

I am planning to get the Idoc type from the EDIMSG table and the Segment from the message type.and then will use segment_read function module.

I am still in search of "how to find Segment list from the message type .

thx,
