Hi all,

I am unable to extend a basic idoc type (FUNC_LOC_CREATE01)

i want to create a new extension, i used the following steps

We30 -> create new -> basic extension type name given

after this whenever i try to move forward it gives the error 'Action not possible for the generated idoctypes' .

Any suggestions??

Points will be rewarded.

Hi,

Please try these steps.

- Enter transaction WE30 (ALE -> Extension -> IDOC types -> Maintain Idoc type)

- Type in your name of the extended IDOC type (usually starting with 'Z') and click on the Basic IDoc type, click the create icon.

- Click on Create new and enter a description and press enter.

- Click on ZIDOCTYPE01 and then on the Create icon.

- Enter ZIDOCTYPE as the segment type, click on Segment Editor.

- Enter a description for your segment type and create.

- Enter a description for your segment, enter each field required in your IDoc and press enter to validate.

- Save and generate, press back

- To release the segment choose Goto, Release from the menu.

- Check the box on the line of your segment.

- Save, back and enter.

- Your Idoc type structure should be displayed with your new segment.

- Save and back.

- To release the Idoc type choose Extras, Release type from the menu and Yes.

- Select Create New option and enter FUNC_LOC_CREATE01 for Linked Basic Type.

- Then enter a description and press enter.
