Hello,

First of all, we'll need to identify as to what we want to do with the PO Data. For example, If we want to Create Sales Order, there is already a Posting Program available with the Name IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS (FM). This is useful for Creating a Sales Order automatically whenever a PO IDoc is received.

Here is the Information for processing Standard IDoc.

1. WE30 - ORDERS05 - IDoc Type

2. WE31 - Segment Definition for the IDoc Type

3. WE81 - Logical Message Types (ORDERS)

4. WE82 - Assigning the Message Type to IDoc Type

5. WE42 - Define Process Code

6. BD51 - If you want to Code a Custom Function Module,

then after creating it, you need to register the same

Function Module in this Transaction Code.

7. WE57 - Assign Message Type / IDoc Type / FM group.

8. WE20 - Partner Profiles

9. WE21 - Port Definitions

Hope this information was helpful.

Thanks and Regards,

Hello

Assuming that the receiver expects the purchase order as EDI message then the overall procedure is like this:

1) Send purchase order as IDoc (ORDERS.ORDERS05)
2) Convert hierarchical IDoc into XML-IDoc (could be done by sending the IDoc to an XML port)
3) Convert IDoc-XML into EDI-XML (e.g. EDIFACT, ANSI X.12, etc.)
4) Convert EDI-XML into flat EDI message
5) Send EDI message to customer

We use SAP-XI to convert the Idoc-XML to EDI-XML. With the help of a little plugin we then create the flat EDI message which is sent by our ODEX server (www.dip.co.uk) to our clearing centre which eventualls forwards the messages to the customers.
