IDOC Serialization SAP Cloud integration

[RobHofman]

Dear community,

I am setting up an interface where I post two Idocs in a sequential order. first I post a FUNC_LOC_CREATE idoc and after that a CLFMAS. The CLFMAS can not be processed because the functional location does not exist yet. This is ofcourse due to the async character of idocs.

After some research I found out about IDOC serialization. I created a group in BD44

in BD64 I added the SERDAT Idoc type

Partner profile is set up in WE20 for all three idocs

details below:

I created a variant ZFLOC_CREATE of RBDSER04 which I tried to run with the serialization group ZGRP_FUNCLOC.

When I run the program I get the error message that there is no inbound processing defined for my serialization group.

Am I missing some config in WE20 or is there something else missing? I am sending the idocs using SAP Cloud integration.

Hopefully someone can help me out

Thanks in advance

Rob

EDIT:

when debugging the program

I see the error comes from a select on table TBD41. When checking this table in SE16n, this table seems to be empty. Does anyone know where this table is filled up?

In the end the solution was to also configure the inbound processing. I defined the groups but apperantly was not using them

You might want to have a look at UPS in order to create logical packages of IDocs with serialisation.
