Guide to ALE/IDocs

[Former Member]

Hello,

Can anyone link me to any user guides about ALE and IDocs? Preferably a practical guide. I've struggled myself through the (boring) SAP courses, but they're pretty much only theoretical.

I'd like a guide which explain the creation, sending and receiving of IDocs from A to Z, with examples, screenshots, transaction codes, etc.

Thanks in advance!

Hi Dave,

have a look at my book:

step by step (with screenshots):

<a href="/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2006/10/11/xi-new-book-mastering-idoc-business-scenarios-with-sap-xi"><b>Mastering IDoc Business Scenarios with SAP XI</b></a>

many logistic scenarios (Purchase orders, sales orders, changes,

deliveries,invoices) - all with screens:)

Regards,

Hi,

I really do recommend this book: "ALE, EDI & IDoc Technologies for SAP".

Unfortunately, it is sold out ... but it is possible to buy a used book, however, it is quite expensive.
