Introduction This document is prepared to guide technical and functional flow for IDOC The scope of this document includes complete steps to create outbound & inbound IDOC in SAP R/3. The document gives detail on the functional customization required while creating outbound & inbound IDOC. System SAP R/3 is used for the Outbound and Inbound operations. Information for Business (SAP R/3) would flow to-fro through IDOC using EDI as transmission mode.

Communication between SAP and Legacy system through IDOC Outbound IDOC

SAP

Legacy system Inbound IDOC

Outbound IDOC: When IDOC is sent from SAP to Legacy system. The data from tables of SAP will be filled into the segments of the IDOC and it is sent to the Legacy system. We will maintain Recipient information. Inbound IDOC: When IDOC is sent from Legacy to SAP system. The Incoming IDOC is read by SAP and the data from segments of the IDOC will be updated into the tables of the SAP system. We will maintain Sender information. Things to be achieved: The Partner profile: Condition table, Access sequence, Requirement routine, Output determination procedures, Condition records, Application, Partner number, Partner type, Partner function, Output type, Port, Process code, Function Module and Message type. IDOC creation: Segments, Basic type or Extension type. Generating the Out going IDOC (Outbound). Reading the Incoming IDOC (Inbound).

Functional Logical Flow steps: a. How Output Type gets triggered Since the document is made for the Business logic (Ex: Delivery), when the delivery is created or changed then output type gets triggered by the following steps. Note: Condition type is nothing but Output type

Creation of Delivery Delivery type Output determination procedure Condition type

Req. routi ne Access sequence Condition table

Conditi on records Triggering of Output type

How IDOC gets generated (Outbound IDOC)

Triggering of Output type Program RSNASTED (perform EDI_PROCESSING) Table EDP12 Process code Table TEDE1 Functional Module (Fills the standard segments) User Exits Filling the user defined segments or updates the standard segment data Validates the Sender and Recipient information (Checks for partner profile) Generating the IDOC with appropriate status c.

How IDOC gets read (Inbound IDOC)

Incoming IDOC Validates the Sender and Recipient information (Checks for partner profile) Table EDP21 Process code Table TEDE2 Functional Module Filling/Updating the tables (By BAPI, BDC or LSMW) Updating the status of IDOC 5

When Delivery created or changed (vl01n or vl02n) then. 1. Output determination procedures (NACE). 2. Get the condition type. e.g.: ZDLV 3. Validates Requirement routine if maintained. 4. If succeed in Requirement routine then it will go ahead otherwise returns to the delivery screen without triggering the output type. 5. It will get the access sequence from condition type. 6. For that access sequence it will get the Condition table 7. It checks for the existence of Condition records in the condition table. 8. If succeed then the Condition type will get triggered and in turn the output type will gets triggered. If fails then returns to the delivery screen without triggering the output type. 9. Once the output type triggered then for that output type the processing routine program will be executed e.g.: program RSNASTED and form EDI_PROCESSING. In this form it will get the Process code for the respective output type and since the Function Module is attached to the Process code, it executes the FM (IDOC_OUTPUT_DELVRY) and in turn it will executes the user exits where the code has been written to fill the IDOC according to the requirement of the project and generates the IDOC and send it outside the system with proper status. 10. In case Inbound IDOC, FM is used to read the segments and by using BAPI or BDC or LSMW data of segments will be updated into the tables and appropriate message will be updated in the IDOC status.

Brief explanation on IDOC 1. 2. 3. 4.

The IDOC is nothing but (I) Intermediate (DOC) Document. It is a data container (ASCII file format) used to exchange the information between any two systems. Each IDOC has its own unique identity number (within a client). IDOC’s are stored in database (table EDID4) as simple flat files with lines of text, where the lines are structured into data fields.

Difference between Table and IDOC e.g.: Mara V/S IDOC

IDOC’s are processed by FM which can be assigned while customization. It is system independent (SAP-to-SAP or Non-SAP (Legacy)). It can be viewed in text editor; the data stored in DIOC is in character format. IDOC’s are direction independent (Outbound or Inbound). IDOC’s consists of 3 components. a. Control records (EDIDC). b. Data records (EDIDD). c. Status records (EDIDS). 10. The interface used can be EDI (Electronic Data Interchange) between two SAP or with any NONSAP systems or ALE (Application link Enabling) between two SAP systems. A.

Control records (EDIDC): It is a structure and contains the administrative information as follows:

1.

Direction: determines the transmission medium of IDOC whether inbound or outbound idoc.

2.

Current status: A two-digit status is assigned to an IDOC to allow the processing to be monitored. Both the SAP application and the external system during status confirmation must maintain the field with the correct value. The statuses for outbound IDOC’s are between '01' and '49', while the statuses for inbound IDOC’s begin with '50'.

3.

Basic type: It is the initial creation of IDOC type where everything is designed according to the standard by SAP. Extension: It is the extension of Basic type where all the segments of Basic type will exists and also the additional user defines segments exists. It is defined by the customer. Message type: The message type is a business function and is unique identifier of business process where IDOC type is being used. The three field’s message type (required), message code (optional) and message function (optional) belong to the key fields in the partner profiles, which are used to determine inbound processing. Partner no.: It is a number which uniquely identifies a vendor, customer or a logical system. It is the partner with whom the system will communicate. Partner Type: It characterizes the communication partner. Partner type and partner number identify the partner uniquely.

Port: It is the point where the IDOC‘s are accepted from other system and sent to other system.

1.

Data records (EDIDD): It carries application dependent data for e.g. Delivery related data The IDOC types can be a Basic type or Extension type. IDOC type: The IDOC type is systematic arrangement of segment in parent and child relation (Header and Item level). It can be Basic type or Extension type. The length of each segment will be of 1000 character long.

2.

Basic type: Defined by the SAP

Extension type: It is basically defined by the user, it is the extension of basic type for e.g.: ZFPOGSAP.

Creation of Condition table: SPRO or V/60 Condition table: A table where the key fields are data combinations for which messages are triggered (and offered for processing). For each data combination, there is a condition record in the table. The data part contains the actual message. The condition tables which are contained in the standard SAP R/3 System should remain unchanged. If you want to make changes, you should create new condition tables. To do this, copy a similar, already existing condition table and make the necessary changes. To create a new condition table: Enter the name between 501 and 999 with proper description and then select the desired fields for the condition table from the list of allowed fields. Generate the new condition table. Specify the condition tables in the access sequences. This way, you establish the link between output condition, access sequence and output condition record.

Enter table as 950 and go to menu condition -> create.

Press enter.

Creation of Access sequence: SPRO (NACE) The access sequence defines the order in which the system searches for condition records valid for a condition type. In case of EDI search is made to determine the valid default values for the respective message. To create a new access sequence, copy a similar one already existing in the system and change it to correspond to your requirements. The access sequence should be four-digit alphanumeric start with the letter Z (since SAP reserves this letter for the standard system) with appropriate description. Provide the condition table and requirement routine number. The Tables: T682, T682T and T682I

Creation of Output type: SPRO (NACE) The output type represents different output, such as quotations, order confirmations, and delivery notes in the SAP System. To create a new output type, copy a similar access sequence in the system and make the necessary changes the key should begin with the letter Y or Z up to 4 characters, with appropriate description. Here we have to attach a program in change output tab. It is used to control output type on change of some key fields of application data. Tables: T685, T685B, T685T, TNAPR, T681A and T681B.
