SAP workflow and IDOC processing (incoming invoices)

[Torsten Schnorpfeil]

Hi Sergey,

 

I'm doing alright, even though we have to get together sometime for a drink!

 

Actually you describes exactly what I'm trying to do! So, I guess my 64,000
dollar questions would be: how do you link the data from a posted document
to a IDOC document? The IDOC does not contain the info of the posted
document (other than a number in the message, which is ugly and not really
good to use). What is the IDOC table names  you are referring below? In what
table does SAP store the segment name and the segment value linked together?

 

OK, son. here are the questions, so show me that you are worth the big
bucks;)

 

Hope u are doing good and I hear from you soon ;)

 

Cheers,

Torsten

Hi Torsten,  how you've been?

 

- you can use an event handler on posting and match attributes of a posted
document to the processed idoc - if you got a match then you got your
document (and a number)

 

- if you know the IDOC number then you can retrieve it and any associated
data from the IDOC tables where it's stored

 

- finally, if it does not work then you can pay me to do it for you...  :)

 

cheers! Serge~

Hello WUGers,

 

We are currently implementing a IDOC scenario with SAP workflow and I have a
question, I'm seeking enlightenment:

 

When I trigger a customer workflow and I have the IDOC object as the main
object in the workflow (i.e. IDOCINVOIC), what is the best way to retrieve

 

-          The document number, company code and fiscal year of the
accounting document (after successful posting)?

-          How can I get the values of the IDOC segments, which were
imported previously (i.e. the data we received from the suppliers)?

 

I was looking around, but I couldn't find any promising concept. Any help
would be highly appreciated!

 

Thanks a lot,

Torsten Schnorpfeil
