To specify which IDoc you want to process, you provide information
in the enterprise service discovery wizard.
Before you begin
Make sure you have set the connection properties for enterprise service
discovery.
About this task
Specify search criteria that the enterprise service discovery wizard
uses to discover ALE IDocs on the SAP server. The enterprise service discovery
wizard returns a list of ALE IDocs that meet the search criteria.
To specify
the search criteria and select one or more IDocs, use the following procedure.
How to perform this task
- In the Find and Discover Enterprise Services window,
click Execute Query.
- Expand ALE.
The objects discovered
by the query are grouped into two categories: Basic IDocs and Extension IDocs.
- Expand either Basic
IDocs or Extension IDocs, depending on
the type of IDoc you want to import.
- Click either Discover By Name or Discover
By Description.
The Filter button
is now enabled.
- Click Filter.
- Type a search string (for example, ALEREQ*)
representing the IDoc you want to call.
- Expand Discover By Name or Discover
By Description (whichever choice you made in the earlier step).
- Click the IDoc you want to use. If you are working with multiple
IDocs, click the names of all the IDocs.
- Click Add to import list.
- In the Configuration
Parameters window, perform the following tasks to add the IDoc
to the list of business objects to be imported.
- If you want to send an IDoc packet and specify that the packet
not be split, select the Send an IDoc Packet as one Business Object check
box.
- If you want to send the IDoc in an unparsed form (so that the
client application, rather than the adapter, parses the data), select the Send
IDoc with Unparsed Data check box.
- Select the Use SAP Field Name to generate attribute(s) check
box.
- In the Enter the Release field, specify
the SAP release number to identify the IDoc type you want the enterprise service
discovery wizard to use for creating business objects.
Note: You
can specify an earlier release than the one you are currently using if you
need to create business objects based on earlier versions of the IDoc type.
If the earlier version of the IDoc type has fewer segments than the current
version, the enterprise service discovery wizard might create a definition
with missing segments or it might display an error indicating that the generation
of the business object definition was unsuccessful because different versions
of SAP require different API calls.
- Click OK.
- Click Next.
Result
The enterprise service discovery wizard has returned a list of the
function or functions that match the search criteria, and you
have selected the function or functions you want to work with.
What to do next
Specify a name for the business object and the directory to which
it should be stored.
