Hi sap experts
I am working on ALE Idoc Interfaces.
-Client1 Sender
-Client2 Reciever
I am able to send IDOCs MATMAS from Client1 to Client2.
My requirement is to
1) Send an outbound IDOC data(MATMAS) to a flat file on client1(SENDER).
2) Upload the flat file as an IDOC on the inbound sytem
which is Client2(RECIEVER).
Can anyone send me the procedure for the above.
Thanks and Regards

Hi Ashok,
1) Send an outbound IDOC data(MATMAS) to a flat file on client1(SENDER).
- Create File Port (WE21) for outbound file.
- Maintain Distribution Model (BD64) for sender ->receiver system.
- Create Partner Profile (WE20) for logical system.
- You can use this program RBDSEMAT (t/code BD10) to generate IDoc MATMAS file(s).
_ Then you can FTP the file(s) to receiver system.
2) Upload the flat file as an IDOC on the inbound sytem
which is Client2(RECIEVER).
If your receiver system is SAP.
- Create File Port (WE21) for inbound file.
- Maintain Distribution Model (BD64) for receiver -> sender system.
- Create Partner Profile (WE20) for logical system.
- You can use this program RSEINB00 to upload IDoc MATMAS file(s).
- If you setup partner profile to trigger by background job then you need to run this program RBDAPP01 to post the IDoc(s) to application.
If your receiver system is NOT SAP then you need a middleware to map these IDoc control record, segment and data.
Hope this will help and let me know if you need further assistant.

Ashok,
There are a lof of step for do it.
the main steps are:
Setup your partners in (WE20);
Setup your distribution model in (BD64) for MATMAS;
Its should be in (client 1 and client 2);
look for IDOC in http://help.sap.com

Hi
Your solution was helpful. Is there a way by which i can transfer my outgoing IDOC into a flat file on my local system. I have created a File port where i have specified my destination directory.
Now i want to assign this port to my outgoing IDOC so that a flat file is created on my local system
Do i have to write a custom program to save my idoc as a flat file..
Do u have any sample code so that i can edit my outgoing idoc and convert it into a flat file.
Can you mail the required procedure to my mail id narra.ashokkumar@gmail.com
Thanks and Regards

If you point to a file port in your partner profiles that will be taken care. But the file will be written on the application server and not on your desktop.

Hi Ashok,
For your requirement you need to create a file port where you want to write these idocs.
And a program should be written to read the file from application server for processing in the receiving system.
Generally you need to have a middleware to map the data from file to idoc, but you can also do from custom program by reading from appl. server :-).

Hai Ashok
Go through the following Steps
ALE IDOC
Sending System(Outbound ALE Process)
Tcode SALE ? for
a) Define Logical System
b) Assign Client to Logical System
Tcode SM59-RFC Destination
Tcode BD64 ? Create Model View
Tcode BD82 ? Generate partner Profiles & Create Ports
Tcode BD64 ? Distribute the Model view
Message Type MATMAS
Tcode BD10 ? Send Material Data
Tcode WE05 ? Idoc List for watching any Errors
Receiving System(Inbound ALE )
Tcode SALE ? for
a) Define Logical System
b) Assign Client to Logical System
Tcode SM59-RFC Destination
Tcode BD64 ? Check for Model view whether it has distributed or not
Tcode BD82 -- Generate partner Profiles & Create Ports
Tcode BD11 Getting Material Data
Tcode WE05 ? Idoc List for inbound status codes
ALE IDOC Steps
Sending System(Outbound ALE Process)
Tcode SALE ?3 for
a) Define Logical System
b) Assign Client to Logical System
Tcode SM59-RFC Destination
Tcode BD64 !V Create Model View
