SAP IDOC Elements and Links Diagram

[beyhan_meyrali]

Hi community,

Sometimes we all need is a diagram to see link between modules. And here is a chart for you, which shows links between configuration elements of IDoc.

I hope that diagram with flow and tcodes will be a basic cheat sheet when you need to remember the relation between modules and tcode to make changes.
