SAP IDoc Transfer Object

SAP IDocs (Intermediate Documents) are available to you both as sources and as targets. The required SAP system must be configured as a plug-in instance. Create an SAP IDoc transfer object within the connection as described. The transfer object can send IDocs, and the IDoc trigger receives IDocs.

The following properties can be configured:

Creation
  • Apply plug-in configuration: Selects what was selected in the SAP plug-in by IDoc handling.
  • Create empty IDoc: When an IDoc is loaded from SAP, the IDoc is sent, but the existing elements are emptied and only your own changes are sent.
  • Use template from SAP system: The loaded IDoc from SAP is used, but processed with your own values.

"Parameters" tab​

PropertyDescription
Parameter selectionSelect the required data segments, i.e., the elements that are to be read or written.

You can write multiple data records to an IDoc at the same time; the required data segments are then created multiple times. Conversely, an IDoc can also deliver multiple data records.

IDocs that cannot be sent are temporarily stored in an IDoc queue.
