RE: Posting OUTBOUND idocs

Hello IDOC gurus,

I am creating OUTBOUND idocs in the background using function module MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE. My question is will this function module process the idoc or do I have to run program RSEOUT00 as a batch job to process the idoc. If this is the case how do I monitor error messages. I need to get them into the application log which I can do if FM MASTER_IDOC_DISTRIBUTE. will do the job.

Please advise

Thanks
