[Integration Center] Can EDI Output only header when there is no record

Hi SAP Experts,

Good day!

I created an custom MDF object and want to use Integration Center to export.

When there is no record, the customer request to output only header. In integration center, there are two types, simple file output and EDI file output.

Since the customer request to have double header, we have to go with EDI File Output option.

But the point is EDI file output version cannot generate only header when there is no record. I received the below msg.

No Records found for integration;processing finished without generating any output

On the other hand, when I test with "simple file out" it generates only header with no record.

Is this the expected behavior?

Any solution that we can make EDI version to output only header when there is no record??

Thank you in advance for your reply.

Dear hsrivarasat,

If no records, the file will not be generated with the header only, this is the standard behavior.

Thank you.

Dear h.kimoto,

You can try to create a report and schedule it every day to get the info or only the header in case no values are available.

Thank you.

I fear this will remain a system limitation to work with.
