Anji reddy,

Can I get any document which briefly overviews ABAP'er of MM, PP and FICO modules. Please don't give links of sapgenie, sapbrain. I am looking at a ppt or a word doc.

Thank you.

Hi Venkat,

1) There are two processes in IDOC processing one is INBOUND PROCESS( IDOC coming to the system and its handling at various stages) and the other is OUTBOUND PROCESS( IDOC is send to other system . Separate ABAP programs are written for these 2 processes and different configuration settings are required for each one .Depending upon the trigeering mechanism different programming approaches are used.OUTBOUND PROGRAMS handle the IDOC creation and INBOUND PROGRAMS handle the inbound IDOC and the data trasfer from the IDOC to the database tables.

2) Message types (required for sending the data across participating systems) relate to the structure of the data called an IDOC (Intermediate Document). Message types provide the format of the data, which can be exchanged between SAP and non-SAP systems. ALE supports over 200 message types in R/3.

3) For Status codes of idoc check this wiki.
