Definition

In the data exchange process, you can determine when to send the generated IDocs.

You have the following options:

  • IDoc is sent

    The application determines when the IDoc is sent by evaluating the due date control and the data exchange process.

  • IDoc is not sent

    The IDoc is not sent in the data exchange process (not even with report REE_DATEX_TASKS_DATA_SEND). If you want the IDoc to be sent anyway, this has to be done using a subsequent report (for example, standard report RSEOUT00).

  • IDoc is aggregated and sent

    The IDoc is not sent in the data exchange process (not even with report REE_DATEX_TASKS_DATA_SEND). The system waits for the IDoc data to be aggregated before it is sent (for example, using report REE_DATEX_AGGREGATE_IDOCS.

Use

During a data exchange process, the due date controls when the individual IDocs are sent. You can use the sending type to override the due date control.

Dependencies

Example

You have executed a data exchange process that creates a data exchange task. If the data exchange process is executed successfully, an IDoc is generated and attatched to the data exchange task.

When the data exchange task is due, the system checks whether to send the IDoc immediately. The relevant IDoc sending type is determined from the data exchange definition:

  • No sending type or sending type with sending category IDoc is sent

    -> The IDoc is sent immediately

  • Sending type with sending category IDoc is not sent orIDoc is aggregated and sent

    -> The IDoc is not sent

    If you want the IDoc to be sent anyway, this has to be done using a subsequent report.
