ORDCHG Message is not triggering When there is a change in Custom fields

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

For our project I have added some custom fields in Header and Item level for PO.

When there is a change in Standard PO fields , ORDCHG message gets triggers, but this does not happen when

there is a change in Cusotm fields.

I want ORDCHG Message to get triggered whenever there is change in certain custom fields.

Please let me know , what should be my process to go forward.

Thanks

Hi,

check the data element used for that field is having the change document flag to X. if not then try to make the change document flag to X in the data element-->further characteristics of that custom field if you created the custom data elements .or use the change pointer for the same

Hi Naveen,

I think the Change Document flag option for Custom data field-delement will work.

So can you please tell me, will I have to write some other code to update the same to CDHDR and CDPOS, OR

SAP will internally update these to these tables.

Thanks

Hi amresh,

you could use change pointers to trigger an idoc when a change to certain fields occur.
