message type and IDOC types

INVOIC /NFM/INVOIC02

INVOIC INVOIC02

INVOIC INV_ID01

Read the Documentation of the Idoc types using Transaction WE61 and find which one is suitable.

Hello Pavan

You need to maintain the partner profile (transaction WE20) for the customer to whom you want to send invoices.

Example: customer no. 1000

1) Create new entry for partner type KU (= customer)

2) Maintain outbound parameters: parter role = PY (payer), message type = INVOIC

3) Maintain details for outbound: port (e.g. send to SAP-XI), transfer immediately (or collect), basic type = INVOIC02

4) Maintain message control, e.g. V3 / ZRDE / SD09

Open an invoice for customer 1000 and go to message output. Create a new message output ZRDE / Medium = 6 (EDI) / PY / 1000.

This message can be sent either immediately or via a schedules job.

However, if the sent invoice arrives at your customer depends on whether your customer is able to receive IDocs or is using an EDI subsystem. In this case the IDoc needs to be converted into an EDI message (e.g. EDIFACT or ANSI.X12).
