Message Type Programs

Hi There,

I have one requirement to find out all custom programs and custom data dictionary objects developed for a message type.

For example ORDRSP is one message type. I need to find out all programs and tables related to this message type.

Pls suggest me your ideas to find it out.

Thanks in advance.

Define "developed for a message type"?

You can start with reviewing in WE20 where this message type is used. If there is any ABAP type ports used, then look at those programs. Also you may find some user exits (in CMOD). I'm not sure though how are you expected to identify that the code is meant specifically for certain message type. I don't think it's a realistic assignment.

For the dictionary objects - I guess you'll have to look at what's in the programs above. However, the same object might be used in other programs, so make sure to use 'Where-used' button.

Check if there is any documentation available. If there are specs maintained (and they should be!) in .doc format, just search for ORDRSP in those documents.

Good luck!

Hi,

It is a realistic requiremt, our team try to collect this info because of system upgrade. I could able to find programs thru WE57. But few message types are not assigned with any function module over there. So trying to find out the root of the IDoc triggering code (custom/standard). More information welcome.

Thanks lot.

I will start with WE82 where an IDoc Type/Message are linked. Once you know the IDoc type, check also WE57 apart from WE20 and see if there are any extensions to the IDoc type. Check WE57 if there are any custom inbound processing function modules written. Check WE30 for the extensions to the IDoc type if any and any new segments there will be your new ddic objects.
