problem with EDI_DC40

[Former Member]

In mapping the source flat file structure to idoc type debmas 03, there is a need to disable the EDI_DC40 field. I did not find any option to disable in SAP XI 2.0 version. Any suggestion??

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

I think you can just map al the obligatory fields in the control record, XI will automatically replace the neede control records fields below the surface dependant on your SLD settings and IDX-settings.

It makes no sense actually but it works!

Hi Homiar,

Thanks for your response. I am using the scenario

file-xiidoc in SAP XI 2.0. During mapping, the source structure is mapped with idoc structure.

Regarding EDI_DC fields, i thought those control data will be dynamically filled during runtime. So i wanted to disable the filed EDI_DC40. This option is available in

sap xi 3.0 and i didnot find any option in SAP XI 2.0.

Do u have any idea like handle this EDI_DC during mapping??

Sriram,

I agree with Paul. Just map the obligatory fields like the Message type etc. SAP XI anyways overwrites at run time the info required by it to process.

I have never disabled the field in 2.0 like in 3.0, but will investigate & let you know my finding.

Sriram,

Can you please explain why you need to disable the EDI_DC40 field ?

Thanx,
