Hi

BD69:

Is used to assign the Message Type with the IDOC type and Extension in IDOC conguration (THIS IS CHANGE/MAINTENACE VIEW)

WE82 is also same But it is just to see

DISPLAY mode only

Hi,

They both are essntially the same, though bd69 says assignment of msg typ to idoc typ and we82 says output typ and assignment to idoc typ.

Usually WE82 is populated in my experience, also i has one extra column the release of the Idoc.

In SAP you will find many transactions starting with WE and BD which seem to do the same thing a bit differently

Hi ,

We generally use we82 to assign idoc to the message type.

<b>Link message to IDoc type (WE82 & BD69) Client independent</b>

To link the message type to the IDoc type follow these next few steps:

• Enter transaction WE82 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> EDI: Message Types and Assignment to IDoc Types)

• Click on change icon to enter change mode

• Click on New entries to create the link

• Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01

• Save and exit

• Enter transaction BD69 (ALE -> Extensions -> IDoc types -> Maintain message type for intermed. Structure -> Assign message type to IDoc for ALE)

• Click on change icon to enter change mode

• Click on New entries to create the link

• Enter the message type ZINVRV and the BasicIDoc type as ZINVRV01

• Save and exit

In case you need to reduce any enhanced IDoc type in BD56, you will need this BD69 (table TBDMS) entry before. See SAP Note 104231.
