Software
Introduction to EDI and ALE:
EDI (Electronic Document interchange) EDI is the electronic exchange of business
documents between the computer
systems of business partners, using a
standard format over a communication
network.
EDI is also called paperless exchange.
Advantages:
Reduced Data entry errors
Reduced processing time
Availability of data in electronic form
Reduced paperwork
Reduced Cost
Reduced inventories and better planning
Standard means of communications
Better business process
EDI has two process
1. Outbound process
2. Inbound process
Outbound Process:
1.Application document is created.
2. IDOC is generated
3.Idoc is transferred from SAP to
Operating system layer
4.Idoc is converted into EDI standards
5.Edi document is transmitted to the
business partner
6.The Edi Subsystem report status to SAP
Inbound Process:
1.EDI transmission received

2.EDI document is converted into an IDOC

3.IDOC is transferred to the SAP layer
4.The application document is created
5.The application document can be
viewed.
IDOC:
IDOC is a container that can be used to
exchange data between any two
processes.
Each IDOC is assigned a unique number
for tracking and future reference.
IDOC consists of several segments, and
segments contain several fields.
IDOC contains the following three types of
records...
1. One Control Record.
2. One or many Data Record
3. One or many Status record.
In IDOCs the following terms are to be
known.
PORT:
Port is used in the outbound process to
determine the name of the EDI subsystem
program, the directory path where the
IDOC file will be created at the operating
system level, the IDOC file names and the
RFC destinations.
RFC Destination:
Used to define the characteristics of
communication links to a remote system
on which a functions needs to be
executed.
Partner Profile:
Partner profile specified the various
components used in an outbound process
(Partner number, IDOC type, message
type, Port, Process code), the mode in
which it communicates with the subsystem
(batch or immediate) and the person to be
notified in case of errors.
Message Control
Used in pricing, account determination,
material determination, and output
determination. The message control
component enables you to encapsulate
business rules with out having to write
ABAP programs.
TO Process IDOCS the following TCODES
will be used.

On both sides:
Logical System Names SALE
Setup RFC destinations SM59
Port Destinations WE21
In Source system:
Segment Creation WE31
Basic IDOC Type Creation WE30
Message Type Creation WE81
Assign Message Type To Basic IDOC Type
WE82
Distribution Model BD64
Writing Report Program SE38
Partner Profile WE20
Message control NACE
Check IDOCs WE02, WE05
In Destination System:
Creating FM SE37
Assign FM to Logical Message WE57
Define I/P method for Inbound FM BD51
Create Process Code WE42
Generate Partner Profile BD64
IDOC processing in the same instance
of R/3 Clients.
For example two clients in the same R/3
instance.
Client 900.
Client 800.
To transfer the data between two clients
the table structures and their data types
should be match.
In this example, Client 900 is Source
system, and Client 800 is destination
system.
In Client 900 I have created a customized
table and inserted some records.
In Client 800 I have created only table.
Common Steps in Both Clients:
Creating the Logical System Names and
Assigning to Clients:
Go to TCODE SALE.
IMG path IDoc Interface / Application Link
Enabling (ALE) -> Basic Settings ->
Logical Systems -> Define Logical System

Click on Display / Change Button

Click on New Entries

Specify the Logical System name and

description.
Note: Logical System Naming convention
is <SID>CLNT<NNN>

Click on Save and Back buttons

Now you will come back to the IMG path
screen. Click on Assign Logical System to
client.

Click on Display / Change Button

Click on New Entries

Click on Save and Back.

Go to TCODE SE11.
Specify table name as ZSTUDENTS.
In Delivery and Maintenance tab set attributes
as Display Maintenance Allowed
The table fields are.

Insert some records in table.
