Hi Amruth,

IDocs are to be imported from SAP R/3 system in case its standard IDoc.

In IR --> SWCV --> Imported Objects --> Idoc --> (Right click) --> Import of SAP Objects.

Or you can create your own IDoc of the structure of your requirement.

To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:

Create Segment ( WE31)

Create Idoc Type ( WE30 )

Create Message Type ( WE81 )

Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82 )

Creating a Segment

Go to transaction code WE31

Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon

Type the short text

Enter the variable names and data elements

Save it and go back

Go to Edit -> Set Release

Follow steps to create more number of segments

Create IDOC Type

Go to transaction code WE30

Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon

Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter

Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon

The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes

Choose the appropriate values and press Enter

The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.

Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation

Save it and go back

Go to Edit -> Set release

Create Message Type

Go to transaction code WE81

Change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message “The table is cross-client (see Help for further info)”. Press Enter

Click New Entries to create new Message Type

Fill details

Save it and go back

Assign Message Type to IDoc Type

Go to transaction code WE82

Change the details from Display mode to Change mode

After selection, the system will give this message “The table is cross-client (see Help for further info)”. Press Enter.

Click New Entries to create new Message Type.

Fill details

Save it and go back

Data Type is basic unit of data structure in XML format as XI can understand.

Message types comprises of Data types. SO it is clear that it is something like wrapper to your data type. So each message type should have one root element.Then it will become valid XML.

Hi Amruth,

Data Type:

1)The Lowest-level of element which is used to define the structure of the message transferred between systems.

2) Data Types can be nested for creating complex Structures.

Message Type:

1)The format in which messages are transmitted between two systems

2)Consists of one or more (nested) data types with complex hierarchies

Hi,

Data types are most basic elements in XI, which defines the structure of XML message, it is just a schema object, doesn't hold any data.

Message types are defined based on data types, contains the actual payload of XML message. message type can be assigned to one or more message interfaces.

Hi,

In IR under software component,u will create namespace under namespace u will find "Imported objects" there u can find the IDOC and RFC which are inported into IR.

U can find then with the help of F4.

data types

A data type is a basic unit for defining the structure of the data for a message type and, as a result, for the message to be exchanged.

Please go through this link for further reference:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/a5/04623c4f69b712e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

exchangefaultdata and exchangeLogData

All fault message types reference the data type ExchangeFaultData for this part and, indirectly, the data type ExchangeLogData. These data types are automatically created in a namespace when you create the first fault message type there.

message type

A message type comprises a data type that describes the structure of a message. At the following points in SAP Exchange Infrastructure you can refer to the message to be exchanged at runtime by using the message type

Data types define the abstract XSD structure . As Xi xan understand only xml we need a root element in our message. which we define using the message type.

F4 will not wrkin IR and ID and what exactly u wanted to check with the IDOC after the import.

Hi,

Like F4 search is not available in XI level

We can view all our Idocs that too only Imported ones under Imported Objects.

And one more option is we can see all the Idocs while Importing the Idocs also
