Hi,

Goto --> WE19 --> Give the existing IDOC number --> Push execute Button

--> Double click on Message Type

You can change the record here in an existing IDOC

Hai,

In this case u need to generate new idoc from the existing idoc by passing all the values.

In we19 give the idoc number and execute.Idoc with all segments will be displayed.

Here u can click the segment u need and enter the values.Again generate the idoc by any of the method standard inbound,inbound function module,inbound file,standard outbound processing according to whether u are doindg inbound or outbound.

This we19 transaction is used to test your idoc.suppose your creating your custom idoc type in that case we can check whether the idoc type is perfect or not.The idoc created by this transaction will get the status below.

we42 = idoc was created by test transaction

we74 = idoc was created by test transaction
