IDOC type for changing condition record (VK12 functionality)

[prashant_more1]

Dear SAPians,

I am trying to Change the existing condition record using inbound IDOC with basic type COND_A, however, with this basic type the IDOC is always creating a new condition record, the requirement is to have the change functionality similar to VK12 using Inbound IDOC, kindly suggest a message type that is available for the same, also, if not a message type, then I am looking for a way that this could be achieved.

Thanks,

Prashant.

Yes there is no IDoc for VK12 and this is confirmed in SAP note 3381433. Ideally, it is always recommended to perform VK11 which will overwrite the existing condition records.

Thank you for your response Lakshmipathi, just one more question if I am allowed to ask in this thread, if not through IDOC, is there any other standard way for background processing to achieve this functionality so I can get the change log in the condition records?
