Hi Arvind,

I think the best resource for Idocs and ALE/EDI concepts is the book by Arvind Nagpal. If you want online resources type Idocs in the search option of this forum and you will find many answers. This is the best way for you to find online material.

Regards,

Vijay.

Hi Dan,

I'll give a short description of the same..

An IDoc is simply a data container that is used to exchange information between any two processes that can understand the syntax and semantics of the data...

IDOCs are stored in the database.

In the SAP system, IDOCs are stored in database tables.

The two available process for IDOCs are

Outbound Process

Inbound Process..

IDocs serve the basic purpose of transferring data from one application to another

Important tcodes to know..

To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:

Create Segment ( WE31)

Create Idoc Type ( WE30)

Create Message Type ( WE81)

Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)

if you want to know more .. just give your mail id..
