How to process IDOC with all the segments at the same level?

[Former Member]

Hi Team,

we have a custom IDOC VCUI which has all the segments at the same level. The IDOC contains
1> segments for multiple groups
2> segments defining the localized names and description for these multiple groups
3> multiple segments representing the child segments for these groups with groupID as the foreign key
4> other segments holding the localized names and descriptions of these child segments

all the above segments are at the same level.
the raw mapping looks something like this

E1BP_CHARS-NAME_CHAR E1BP_CHARGROUPS-GROUP_NAME
E1BP_CHARGROUPS-E1BP_CHARGROUPS_LANG-GROUP_TEXT
E1BP_CHARGROUPS-E1BP_CHARGROUPS_LANG-LANGUAGE_ISO

Could anybody suggest a way for this situation. I am getting error at the composition phase itself where the localized values of unrelated groups are getting added to the same map.

thanks and regards,

Question, why you would need that? Usually you have a header segment under which child segments come. That header could be a dummy even. And from integration point of view it should not matter.

Hi ,

The ERP system which we are working with has already predefined the IDOC structure and they are adamant on changing that. So in order to process this type of IDOC, we were requested to customize on the data hub side. It would be great if you could suggest anything that can be done from Datahub if possible.

Cheers,
