To Update Quantity in Existing SAP Sales Order Document via IDOC Type ORDCHG

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a request to update the order quantity of an existing SAP sales order number that will be sent from the third party to SAP. I am using IDOC Type ORDCHG with process code ORDC for changes to sales order. But, the result of the testing is a new line item is always created. I have read that I will need to maintain the POSEX field but I do not use that field and the third party will be giving us the same line item number as what in in the SAP sales order itself only. Thus, how do I get the IDOC to work to update the order quantity of an existing sales order document.

Appreicate all of your inputs.

Thank you!

Check the qualifier that you are passing in Segment E1EDP01 -  The action code should be 0002.

As you mentioned the POSEX field in the Idoc should match with the item number of the order.
