Sales Order contract reference for IDOC

[Former Member]

Dear Guru's,

Good Day,

We are implementing a Sales order IDOC process for our client with Message type ORDERS (Inbound). Normally in a standard sales order process when u enter a Sold to party, Ship to party and material number system will automatically refere a OPEN CONTRACT available for the sold to party, Ship to party and material.

In my case client has used a customized DATA-T type for Contract to sales order copy control, because of which system is not refering open contract when i run the IDOC.

We can change the COPY CONTROL but client is using this process for more then 2 yrs. we dont know what will be the implecations or effect it will show on my client other SAP process.

Can any one suggest me who i can refere a contract thru IDOC. May by thru BAPI or BADI.

Your suggestions will be more appreciated.

With best regards,

M. Rajendran.

Hi Dude,

I tried checking it with E1EDK41 segment and i gave the open contract number in the field XBELNR. Still Sales order is not refering the contract.

Any other option available.
