ALEs/IDOCs doubt

[Former Member]

Hello Friends,

I need suggestions for this typical issue

The business scenario is like that when we are creating <b>purchase orders</b> in one server it should create <b>sales order</b> in the another server automatically.

In the outbound it is moving without any error, and in the inbound side it is getting <b>51-status code</b> after I am trying to post the idoc with respective process code.In the <b>error</b> it is shows the message like “<b>The material number for item 000010 could not be identified”.</b>

Thanks in advance

did you check, if the material number for this specific item is available in the receiving system?

This seems to be an application error, so maybe you should involve a SD guy...

HI,

Adding further...

Although both Purchase Order & Sales Order use the same idoc type orders01, the data content will be different.

for example...the purchase order will have purchasing related data like purchasing organization, purchasing group, vendor etc...

however, sales order idoc requires the data like, sales organization, division, distribution channel, sold-to paty etc,...

You have to do the conversion of the PO idoc to an SO idoc(this has to be done after the inbound requirements for a sales order idoc is studied)...

Thanks,

Renjith
