Automatic (EDI) vendor posting fails - can I update the IDOC mapping?

[former_member607794]

Hi -- I am testing a new intercompany sales process and having trouble with returns. The INVOIC01 IDOC for the vendor posting (document type VC - Vendor Credit FI) is failing because text is required on the line item (field SGTXT on BSEG). So it appears that the IDOC doesn't have this text field mapped.

If I can identify a field in the existing IDOC to use for the text, is there a way that I can add that mapping? For example, let's say I want to populate the BSEG text with field BELNR on segment E1EDP01, is there a way to specify in the INVOIC01 idoc that this field should be plugged into BSEG-SGTXT? I don't have EDI experience, so this is all new to me!

Thanks

Hi Allison,

Since it's just for testing, just change the Text field on FI field status group become optional entry. It will solve your problem rather than modifying the standard IDOC
