Use

You use this IMG activity to define new document types in SAP Auto-ID Infrastructure (SAP AII). For each document type that you define, you can maintain a Document Item Context table that contains valid entries. SAP AII uses these entries to store additional information for document items.

SAP AII uses document types to define business documents, and we deliver a standard set of types. If you need a type that does not exist (a customer order, for example) you can use this IMG activity to create it. Optionally, you can use the ABAP Dictionary transaction SE11 to create an associated Document Item Context table.

Requirements

The Document Item Context table must follow these rules:

  • The first field in the table must:
    • Be named 'CLIENT'
    • Be defined as a KEY field
    • Use the domain 'MANDT'
  • The second field in the table must :
    • Be named 'DOC_GUID'
    • Be defined as a KEY field
    • Use a domain that has a data type 'RAW' with length '16'.
  • The third field in the table must:
    • Be named 'DOC_ITEM_GUID'
    • Be defined as a KEY field
    • Use a domain that has a data type 'RAW' with length '16'.
  • The names of all other non-key fields in the table must:
    • Start with the letter Z or Y
    • Be defined as 'Elements' in the Element Set 'SAP_ALL_FIELDS'
