IDOC

Data Creation in Idoc

IDocs are text encoded documents with a rigid structure that are used to exchange data between R/3 and a foreign system. Instead of calling a program in the destination system directly, the data is first packed into an IDoc and then sent to the receiving system, where it is analyzed and properly processed. Therefore an IDoc data exchange is always an

asynchronous process. The significant difference between simple RFC-calls and IDoc data exchange is the fact, that every action performed on IDocs are protocolled by R/3 and IDocs can be reprocessed if an error occurred in one of the message steps.

While IDocs have to be understood as a data exchange protocol, EDI and ALE are typical use cases for IDocs. R/3 uses IDocs for both EDI and ALE to deliver data to the receiving system. ALE is basically the scheduling mechanism that defines when and between which partners and what kind of data will be exchanged on a regular or event triggered basis. Such a set-up is called an ALE-scenario.

IDoc is a intermediate document to exchange data between two SAP Systems.

*IDocs are structured ASCII files (or a virtual equivalent).

*Electronic Interchange Document

*They are the file format used by SAP R/3 to exchange data with foreign systems.

*Data Is transmitted in ASCII format, i.e. human readable form

*IDocs exchange messages

*IDocs are used like classical interface files

IDOC types are templates for specific message types depending on what is the business document, you want to exchange.

WE30 - you can create a IDOC type.

An IDOC with data, will have to be triggered by the application that is trying to send out the data.

FOr testing you can use WE19.

http://www.sappoint.com/presentation.html

http://www.allsaplinks.com/idoc_search.html

http://www.erpgenie.com/sapedi/idoc_abap.htm

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 )

Creating a Segment

Go to transaction code WE31

Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon

Type the short text

Enter the variable names and data elements

Save it and go back

Go to Edit -> Set Release

Follow steps to create more number of segments

Create IDOC Type

Go to transaction code WE30

Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon

Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter

Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon

The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes

Choose the appropriate values and press Enter

The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.

Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation

Save it and go back

Go to Edit -> Set release

Create Message Type

Go to transaction code WE81

Change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message “The table is cross-client (see Help for further info)”. Press Enter

Click New Entries to create new Message Type

Fill details

Save it and go back

Assign Message Type to IDoc Type

Go to transaction code WE82

Change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message “The table is cross-client (see Help for further info)”. Press Enter.

Click New Entries to create new Message Type.

Fill details

Save it and go back

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...

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

2.IDOCs are independent of the sending and receiving systems.

3.IDOCs are independent of the direction of data exchange.

The two available process for IDOCs are

Outbound Process

Inbound Process

AND There are basically two types of IDOCs.

Basic IDOCs

Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.

Extended IDOCs

Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.

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)

then goto SE38 --> Execute the Program RBDMIDOC

29 Error --> ALE Service Layer

then goto SE38 --> Execute the Program RSEOUT00

03 Error --> Data Passed to Port ok

then goto SE38 --> Execute the Program RBDMOIND

12 Error --> Dispatch ok

Inbound Status Codes

50 Error --> It will go for ALE Service Layer

Hi ,

simple steps.

2 local clients 800(RECEIVER) & 810(SENDER)

MESSAGE TYPE = "MATMAS"

A. sale

DEFINED 2 logical system "SYSASIA" & "SYSUSA"

assign Client to logical system SYSASIA

800 = SYSASIA , 810 = SYSUSA

B. sm59

creation of RFC Destination for SYSASIA & SYSUSA

C. BD64

creation of module view & add message type

MODEL VIEW NAME = "MATERIAL"

D. bd82

generation of partner profile

MODEL VIEW = "MATERIAL"

PARTNER SYSTEM = "SYSUSA"

E. MM01

CREATION OF FINSHED GOODS MATERIAL "MATERIAL001"

F. BD10

MATERIAL = "MATERIAL001"

MESSAGE TYPE (R/3 STANDARD) = "MATMAS"

LOGICAL SYSTEM = "SYSUSA"

G. WE05 (Client = 800/sysasia)

outbox STATUS = '03 Data passed to port'

F. WE05 (Client = 810/sysasia)

inbox STATUS = '56 IDoc with errors added'

if incase I run "RBDMOIND" in SE38

A. WE05 (Client = 800/sysasia)

outbox STATUS = '12 Dispatch OK'

B. WE05 (Client = 810/sysasia)

inbox STATUS = '56 IDoc with errors added'

Once every configuration is ok check it again with BDM5 transaction.

Reward if u find helpful

Thanks&Regards,

Rajesh

Hi,

ALE is a technology to link multiple applications in a distrubuted environment and enable them to communicate .

It's an asyncronous process of communication, data can be transferd between SAP to SAP..and SAP to Non-SAP.

The process of sending the data (IDOC) to the target system is called "OUTBOUND PROCESS".

The process of receiving data is called "INBOUND PROCESS".

Outbound:

Step 1. Application document is created when transaction is saved.

2. Message control is invoked.

3. Messages are processed by system.

4. Messages are Edited (if desired).

5. Output (ALE / EDI) is checked

6. Validate against Message control record from Partner Profile

7. Application Document is saved.

8. Entry NAST table is created for every selected output program

along with Medium & Timing.

9. Check for Process Immediately .

If (yes)

Determine Processing Program from TNAPR Table.

ELSE

Execute RSNASTED Program.

10. Read Partner Profile to determine Process Code.

11. Process Code points to the Function Module & Invoked.

12. IDoc is generated.

13. Check for ALE Request.

if (Yes)

Perform Filters, Conversions, Version Changes etc.

Else.

IDoc is stored in DATABASE.

INBOUND:

Step 1. EDI Subsystem creates an IDoc file from EDI Messages

2. Subsystem calls Functional Module EDI_DATA_INCOMING from startRFC program.

3. Data in Control Record is validate against the Partner Profile.

4. IDoc is generated in Database and syntax check is carried out.

5. IDoc file is deleted once file read.

6. Event PROCESSSTATE REACHED is triggered in Idoc Object Workflow.

7. Check for Process Immediately.

If NO

Execute RBDAPP01 Program

Else

Read Process Code from Partner Profile

Process Code Points to Function Module

Application Document Posted.
