Do you want to delete these segments while the IDoc is being generated?

user exit "debmas" site:sap.com

Hi sandra.rossi

Yes, we have 2 options.

1. while creating the idoc but based on partner number( other partners should not get effected)

2. In custom logic, we have customer specifoc. So, after idoc is generated, is it possible to delete the segment. Any FMS there to edit the generated idoc.

Only option 1 is a valid option according to me. You have a user exit to edit the IDoc as you can find by searching the forum.

Changing the IDoc after it has been generated (option 2) is not a good option because it's simply against the SAP logic (IDoc may have already been processed, sent to the receivers, change pointers, workflow, etc.)
