Basic IDOC steps for a novice ABAP Developer

thse have to be done in both the systems with changes only in step:


1: We31- create IDOC segment- release any or 700

2: WE30 Create Idoc type - basic type.... assign segment to this

3: WE81 just define message type.

4: WE82 assign IDOC type to message type.

5: for communication between these 2 systems you need to define Logical System (LS) in SALE

6: SM59 define RFC connection

7: WE21 Configure PORT for RFC destination

8: WE20 define Partner profile-- reciever system name

Note: When configuring in Inbound system ADD Inbound param in WE20-partner type-- you will need to create a process code first for this. wheras when configuring in the Outbound system, create an Outbounf param and mention PORT number-- so for this step you need  to create a PORT fisrt.

BD87- run IDOC....

-- changes on reciever side--if u hv to accumulate incoming IDOCs.. set in WE20 trigger by background job (in Inbound parameter process code)

we41 - Outbound process code
WE42 - Inbound Process Code
Check EDIMSG table for MSG type for an IDOC
WE19 - for testing IDOcs



while doing for standard IDOC:
1: create a msg type - WE81
2: Assign msg typ to IDOC type - WE81
3: if LS system is already created (BD54) then create partnr profile

using WE20 and use LS system name.

Seperate doc on segment editor nd addtion of segments

* Reprocess for a specific output type - WE15. check the output type
from the appliction like VL33N and then use this tcode.
