EDI in purchasing

[Former Member]

Hello SAP professionals,

I encounter an error message " Sender partner number in condition record is default" when the vendor releases for a MM SA are releases released thro EDI. It looks like the releases are released thro EDI. but I could not see any Idoc for this transaction.

I have checked partner profiles by calling up WE20 and the message control for outbound parameters look all right. NACE, the output type for partner function is set up all right. I could not figure out what I am missing.

Could any one of you please give me some suggestions on this?.

Thanks and regards

I assumed before that it was this message, I just wanted to make it certain.

Where do you see this message if you cannot see the IDOC?

Have you checked the 2 OSS notes, especially the one with the language dependencies of partner setup in We20 ?

Hi Jurgen,

I have called up WE05. The selection parameters are

Create date - blank

Direction - 1

Partner type - LI

Partner number

The system looking for sender partner number is defaulted. I don't know where to look for this. If at all any chage in customizing is to be changed where would I do that. Could you please elaborate me more on this?

Hi Jurgen,

This OSS note is for more of FI stuff as you mentioned. I did not see any information helpful to me to resolve the issue I had. thank you so much for your positive reply.

It seems I read this OSS note differently, fo me it has more than 90 % general information, and just avery few Finance specific.

At least it gives you plenty of transactions to check your customizing.

Have you executed WEDI transaction and gone thru step by step?

The message says that your own number is missing in the control record of the IDOC.

How did you search for IDOCs? did you use WE05 transaction, what selection did you use?

[JL23]

can you tell the exact error message number ?

Check following OSS notes: 988142 and 456127

I recommend to read OSS note 551035 (even it has Finance in the title, it has very usefull tipps for EDI and IDOCs in general. I am sure it helps you to find the error origin)
