2. Now under Control key association link this control key with you interface by giving your interface details in below i have given my sender component.

Hi Sankar,

What difference do you see between these 2 versions ?

You can actually copy the 00430 version from SAP control key to the custom create control key modify this version accordingly i.e add /modify /delete the fields in the structure accordingly and assign this control key to your scenario.

Here is one of the example.

Thank you Manoj for the information. I do not have any changes in structure level. Everything looks similar. Only need to create the new version: 004030VICS by copying near version in SAPB2B add on: 004030. I have gone trough couple of below blogs. My doubt is do i need to change anything in B2B tables as i am not updating any segment or field etc. I just need to create new version 004030VICS. I appreciate your help.

Sankar,

When there is no change why do you want to copy the same version and have a duplicate version of the same , whats the reason ? Usually you copy when you dont have the exact structure you need and then modify the copied version . SAP doesn't recommend to modify the tables manually , the tables are auto-generated when you import the B2B content or create a new Structure.
