Syntax error in IDoc (segment cannot be identified)

[former_member588188]

Hello,

I have checked several posts related to the same error. I modified it and it is still giving me the same error message. So hopefully you can help me.

I have created an extension of a segment.

After that I am added the code in the user exit ZXEDFU02. The code appends the value in the table just at the end of segment E1EDP26.

Even if I did all that, I get the message that the segment cannot be identified.

Please help me with this issue. I watched videos on youtube, I was doing step by step everything. And it shows the error.

Thanks

David

The IDoc Control Record must refer to the extension ZINVOIC26, I guess there must be a user exit so that you can fill the extension name.

Hi Sandra,

do you mean in WE82? It was already done and not working.

The IDoc Control Record is the header of the IDoc (like the segments are the body of the IDoc), in table EDIDC. The concerned field is CIMTYP.

Hi,

So do I need to have in the debugger the name of the extension to avoid the error? Do I have to add this in we57? When I was debugging the user exit this value is empty and I don't know how to make that the extension is in that header field.

A custom segment in an IDoc is valid only if the IDoc has its control record referring to an extension which contains this custom segment (in your case, extension ZINVOIC26 contains Z1EDP26).

So, additionally to ZXEDFU02, you must also implement ZXEDFU01:

CONTROL_RECORD_OUT-CIMTYP = 'Z1EDP26'.
