Hi,

BD87 transaction helps in monitering ALE. we do forceful posting of IDoc here.

In selection screen enter the idoc no with valid date and execute.

selectthe idoc and Press "PROCESS"

suppose your idoc is in status 64 ready to dispatch to application. you can forcefully dispatch it and can change the status to 53.

-> you cab trace the idoc here.like outbound /inbound relationship can be traced here.

-> display the idoc from here . you can see the control record, data record, status record from here.

to copy an existing IDoc, use tcode WE19.

Enter the Number of the existing IDoc and proceed.

After you have finished your changes, you can process the IDoc and see, what will happen.

This will only work without errors, if you have done all the necessary preparations (i.e. defining logical systems, partner profiles, Distribution Model, ...)

do you receive IDocs from another system, or do you want to send IDocs to other systems?

Hello,

Check out WE30 and IDOC type ORDERS05.

Are you creating from an internal PO or from an outside vendor.

Might also consider a book "ALE, EDI & IDOC Technologies" also "SAP R3 IDoc Cookbook for EDI and Interfaces".
