Hi All,

In our process we get an inbound idoc that contains an external material number - I want to convert this external material

number into an internal material so that the idoc can be processed and the inbound delivery is created.

Please help with all the steps.

Thanks,

Meghna

You might try using the function module CONVERSION_EXIT_ALPHA_INPUT. To convert to internal format.

Please help with all the steps.

Go ask your team lead - this isn't a training forum. If you have a specific configuration or development question about the process, then I'm sure someone will be glad to help...

Hi Meghana,

Go to table SE16>EDIFCT>enter Message type and see the FM atached and in the Idoc fill status there are customer exits and Badi will be avaiilable to Edit the Internal table fields or Segment data.

read the segment where material number available and modify with internal material .

Hi,

ist depends on your IDOC process.

After you got it working without transformation from external to internal material number, describe what IDOC type and inbound processing module you use. Then we can help you.

Also, this looks like a very common problem your fuctional consultant may have the answer.

Hello Meghna,

As described by others your problem is specific to Idoc type you want to use & the associated processing FM.

Anyways fyi to convert material nos. from internal to external format & vice-versa you might want to look at the Conv. exits: CONVERSION_EXIT_MATNL_INPUT & CONVERSION_EXIT_MATNL_OUTPUT.
