Hi Experts,

is this a hard and fast rule, when ever I am seeking for a Idoc to Mail senerio, the messege mapping should hav a .xsd import from EXTERNAL DEFINITIONS.

I mean to say , can I not create ordinary, data types, messege types and assign the same Messege Interfacess

Pls comment !

You can create ordinary, data types, messege types and assign the same Messege Interfaces.

Here is scenario IDoc to File:

You could do your scenario like this (with a message mapping instead) and a Mail Adapter.

The configuration of the Mail Adapter is described here:

Hi,

For Idoc no message type or external definition is required. we just have to import Idoc in IR thats it.

For receiver mail adapter, you can create Data type, reuse existing ED if it is available.

Hi,

We can create ordinary data types, messege types and assign to the Messege Interfacess.

If you are saying about IDoc then For Idocs there is no data types or message types or external definitions is required. we connect to R/3 and just import the Idoc.

Suppose it(data type) is already created in some where then they will send that .XSD file, so we import that file in the External Definition section and use it.
