Change in basic type SHPMNT05 and EDI message DESADV

Hi all,

I have an SHPMNT05 IDOC in SAP with custom segments. In the custom segment, I need to add a new field. With this change, the EDI DESADV is also affected. May I know the steps on how to proceed on this? I think further coordination with the EDI subsystem (middleware) and receiver is required.

What is the feasible estimate per activities on this?

Thanks!

Hi,

This is already done. The steps which are about the IDOC to EDI mapping are my question.

Hi,

The next steps depends upon what type of middleware you have.

If you have XI as the middleware, then you have to import the IDOC EXTENSION definition in to the Integration repository.

Then map the new fields to the EDI fields on the target side.

YOu have to make necessary modifications in the integration deirectory also, accomodoatiing the changes to the IDOC structures.

Hi Ravi,

The middleware translates the IDOC into DESADV EDIFACT file. A new field is to be added in the IDOC and must be also present in the EDIFACT file. What are the steps to do this?

Thanks!
