Hi Raymond,

There is no functionality difference.

Both are calling FM <b>IDOC_INBOUND_FROM_FILE</b> to start inbound processing from file.

The only difference is that RSEINB00 is standard program which you can execute/schedule to process inbound IDoc file. On the other hand, you need to write program to execute FM EDI_DATA_INCOMING. Also there are some validation earlier for file port and path prior to call FM IDOC_INBOUND_FROM_FILE.

Hope this will help.

Hi,

The FM is actually provided as an RFC to be called by EDI subsystem to post/Create the Inbound IDocs in SAP in real time.

RSINB00 is utility program provided to process IDoc files from SAP side using with execution or Batch job, Eventually it calls the same FM though. This is useful when your EDI subsystem cannot call the RFC on your SAP system.
