Hi,

For configuring of EDI for Invoice, you have to do following things :

1. Use Outbound IDOC type u2013 INVOIC01 (Message type u2013 INVOIC)

2. Maintain Condition Record for Billing Output (EDI)

Transaction Code : VV31 / VV32 / VV33

Output Type : RD00

3. Port in IDOC processing

Transaction Code : WE21

Port Type - > File Port : For eg . - EDIFACT

Maintain all the relevant field like physical path for directory, Functional module for file name.

4. Create Partner Profile

Transaction Code u2013 WE20

Select Partner type KU (Customer) and maintain outbound parameters for Outbound IDoc - INCOIC01

Some Important Transaction Codes for EDI Configuration which you have to know.

WE63 - Documentation IDOC Type

WE46 - IDOC Administration

WE16 - Trigger Inbound processing

WE19 - Test Tools for IDOC Processing

WE02 u2013 IDOC Status

WE05 u2013 IDOC Status

We07 u2013 IDOC Statistic

Hope you can configure now.

Cheers.....

Hi

Yes you have to maintain the customer partner profile in WE20 and in the output type in NACT, set the trans. Medium as 6 (EDI).
