Hi,

I am using DELVRY03 idoc type and some of the quantity fields are empty not being used, is it a good idea if I can use these quantity fields for Char type or datetype data.

Regards

Rinku

Hi Rinku..

Your question is not that clear.

Let me give you some ideas.

1. All Segment fields are store in CHAR Format in Database in EDID4-SDATA field

2. If you want to add new fields it is better to Create a New Segment in WE31 And Create an Extended IDoc type in WE30.

3. It is not advisable to use the existing fields for storing some other data.

Hi Narayan,

Does it mean the final output which get delivered to legacy system is char format?

One more question, is there any possibility in outbound idoc if some of the fields in Delivery item are not getting populated then would it give error message. I am talking about DELVRY03 idoc type.
