Inbound Idoc Configuration

[Former Member]

Dear experts,

Need your help to define partner profile for inbound idoc to R/3 system. There is a third party java based application from which idocs need to be sent to the R/3 system. There is no need to send an outbound idoc from the R/3 system. Can some one please suggest what are the steps to be taken and things to be configured in the R/3 system for the inbound idoc?

Thanks,

Pavan

Hi Nagraj,

Thanks for the input. I think what you have mentioned is for the WE20 tcode.

Also I wanted to know one thing. In this Inbound case do we have to define any new port or define the address for the sending system anywhere? Or is this required only for the outbound case?

Thanks,

Hi,

generally we won't specify any port for inbound.. We should know the logical system of the partner..then only we can put in the inbound paramters the message type and process code.

Let me know if u need any further information.

aslo as i see u might be using EDI rather than ALE as the sending system is a java not SAP..am i correct??

Thanks Nagraj..that is right.. my only concern was is there any step required other than the WE20 steps mentioned by you.

Hi,

First try and let me know...one more thing i was just checking the file port , as this is EDI so we need to have fieport, if u see in WE21, u will have one tab called as INBOUND FILE, generally we specify the direcftory and file path where we need to pick the file and process the inbound file..

Hi,

Create the segments . Then do the following steps .

Create Message type ( WE81 )

Assigning message type to IDoc type and sap release version ( WE82 )

Assign the function module created to message type ( BD51 )

Assign function module to message type and idoc type ( WE57 )

Creation of process code ( WE42 ) ( Also Maintain identification details )

After creating the process code we can use the program RBDMOINC for checking the process code. For this just execute the above mentioned program from se38.

Activating standard task

Transaction code: PFTC_CHG

Assign message type to idoc type ( BD69 )

Step 11: Creation of port

Tcode : WE 21

Creating Partner profile ( WE20) . Set the inbound parameters .

Thanks ,

Hi,

For an Inbound Configuration to avoid the IDoc going into 56 status, only Partner Profile Configuration needs to be done. Because Distribution Model(BD64) is distributed from the sender system and the model is updated in the receiver.
