Idoc ORDERS returned by PI with message "External Error Header Received"

[Former Member]

Hello,

I would appreciate if somebody can help on this :

I'm sending idocs ORDERS05 from R/3 4.6C to PI 7.01.

Idocs are generated and sent successfully from R/3 but are not generated in PI.

From R/3, Idocs are visibible in T BD87 and are classified under "Idocs in target system" with :

- status 56 : "External Error Header Received"

- idocs have a number in R/3 but no partner idoc number

- Partner number is the purchase order vendor number

Thanks a lot for your help.

Hi Cédric ,

Have you configured your Outbound Partner Profile (WE20) and POrts in WE21 transaction?

Also, check if you have configured the Ports in IDX1 transaction of your PI system.

Hello,

Thanks a lot for those helpful replies.

Looking in the sxmb_moni, xml messages is blocked and error message is "Error while reading ID of own business system from

the SLD for system SND and client 320"

-I have ckecked the SLD and technical system SND-320 is well linked to business system SND-320.

-I have ckecked SM59 and tested the html link between XI and SNC but reply is "empty reply". Am I supposed to have a positive check at this point ?

-I have checked my distant user in SAP SNC and change its role to SAP_XI_IS_SERV_USER_MAIN

Concerning we20 in XI, I can't declare an the HTTP connection SND-320, not recognized as a Logicial System

At this point, Idocs are reaching XI from R/3 but don't reach SNC.

Cédric

HI,

Do a cache refresh using SXI_CACHE transaction.

Yes, I do it each time I change a setting but it does not solve the problem.

Thanks
