Hi ALL,

I created a custom message type and trying to create a distribution model in bd64.i added the message type but when i try to create filter set i am not getting any option but getting this option for standard message type.

Hi Bala,

You need to create ur own filet object for custom message and link them. Follow the example below.

To add an object type to our message type, follow these next few steps:

u2022 Enter transaction BD59 (ALE -> Extensions -> ALE object maintenance -> Maintain object types)

u2022 Type in your message type ZINVRV and press enter

u2022 Click on New entries

u2022 Enter your object type, LIFNR (We need to use the vendor as a filter object), the segment name where LIFNR resides, Z1INVRV, a number 1 for the sequence followed by the actual field name LIFNR

u2022 Save and exit.

You have now created an object that weu2019ll use as a filter object in the customer model to direct the flow of messages to the various logical systems based on the vendors in the filter of the message type ZINVRV.

We now need to add our new message type to the distribution model.

Not yet.

we are still deciding on whether to go for a custom message type or standard message type with custom idoc type or basic type.if we go for second approach we can create the filter set in bd64 itself right
