Hi,

You can check in WE60 transaction about the Qualifier for different IDOC types and the values to be passed to it,

Qualifier in the IDoc segment is an identifer for the data in the remainder segment fields.

For e.g. Segment E1EDK14

Fields: QUALF and ORGID

QUALF's domain has values

001 Business area

002 Sales area

003 Delivering company code

004 Plant in charge

005 Delivering plant

006 Division

007 Distribution channel

008 Sales organization

009 Purchasing Group

010 Sales group

011 Company code

012 Order type

013 Purchase order type

014 Purchasing organization

015 Billing Type

016 Sales office

017 Unloading Point

018 Quotation type

019 PO type (SD)

The segment E1EDK14 will be repeated in the message with different qualifier.

QUALF - ORGID

001 - 1000

002 - 2001

The posting program will check the qualifiers and populate the value in the field ORGID in the respective fields of the PO.

Hello Surendrakmar,

This helps to use the same field for differnt purpose. For e.g 1 in the qualifier field can indicate receipt date which is a folloing field or 2 in this field can indicate issue date. This is a std feature in many idocs.
