Answer:in SALE we maintain the Sendor as well as three Receivers

(how many receivers to send the same idoc),
and assign the sendor in sendor system as well as assign
receivers in receivers system(sale-->assignment) three
receivers.
maintain the RFC destination on sendor side and all
receiver side also (sm59).
maintain the port for sendor and three receivers.
maintain the sendor and all receivers for a same message
type in distribution model.(bd64)
maintain the partner profiles for sendor and all receiver
side also (we20).
execute the outbound program(idoc generation)like BD12 for
DEBMAS message type .
check out the status using we02 or we05.

Answer:By executing Conversion Program RBDMOIND...

1) Execute RBDMOIND in outbound program
2) If the status code is convert into 3 to 12 then we can

Question # 6
While sending idoc from receiver side i got msg type 3 and 12.but in receiver side while executing we02, i am gettig the error no idocs selected instead of getting
msg type 53.i am simply sending a material from one client to another client?
Answer:The very first setting you need to check is in distribution
model if the message type is configured for given sending
recieving system combination.if this is correct and partner
profile is wrong, you will get an IDoc stuc in 56 status on
inbound.
You can also check in we09 with giving more details like
segment name (related to MARA table ) and the corresponding
material no. in the field for selection with MATNR.

What is the main difference between interfaces and XI, I think both are cross-applications right? What is the exclusive difference?

s.

View All Answers

er
w

Answer:According to my knowledge in SAP XI we have so many kind of

control levels to process the message. For instance i will
discuss on few points, like
1) Here using XI we can communicate with the SAP or Non-SAP
at sender side or reciever side.
2) XI supports both Syncronus and asyncronus communications
3) in XI we can find the status of the message where it is
during the process of Message processing.
4) We have so many kinds of monitoring techniques.
5) Here we can have N number of senders and N number of
recievers based on your requirement.
6) It supports to process multiple messages at a time from
different senders to multiple recievers.
So I feel we cant perform all these things in
Interfaces.That is the reason XI come into picture.

Question # 10
How to send the idoc to multiple sub systems?
Answer:If you are sending one idoc is to more systems you are
create one sender logical system and more recive logical
systems in T.CODE is SALE. then yoou are send In T.CODE

io

st

ue

Answer:SAP memory (Global Memory): - is available to a user during

the entire duration of a terminal session. Its contents are
retained across transaction boundaries as well as external
and internal sessions.
ABAP/4 memory
The contents of the ABAP/4 memory are retained only during
the lifetime of an external session (see also Organization
of Modularization Units). You can retain or pass data
across internal sessions. The EXPORT TO MEMORY and IMPORT
FROM MEMORY statements allow you to write data to, or read
data from, the ABAP memory.

Answer:u r trying to generate the idocs with 10

records, and u find only 8 (records) idocs created rest
(records) are missing.
Check with the filter set up for the records for its
receiving partner system(logical system).
Correct the filters then try regenarating the idocs(missing
records).

Answer:You can use BD87 if you want to reprocess same idoc

number,here it will not generate new idoc number.
suppose there was RFC Issue ,connection got failed then
after rectifying RFC Connection then you can reprocess
same idoc number.
in case data is missing,then you need to WE19 Transaction > enter idoc number -> fill the missing data.
just drag the segments ,here you can fill data where ever
required.
If you use WE19 then it creates new idoc ,it gives work
flow message.

ie
rv
te

In

Answer:SAP system present in customer environment is copy of

original system which is at SAP itself. That means all the
objects present in customer environment are copy of the
object originally created in SAP environment.
So, If we modify copy of object then it is called as repair
and assigned to development task repair. Repair of object is
also called as modification.
Whereas if we modify object in it's original system where it
is actually created may it be SAP system or the objects
created by customer in customer environment. Then such
changes is called as corrections and assigned to task
Development/Correction
