Documentation

Use

Identifies the IDoc. The number is client-specific and is determined via internal number assignment. The external system must consider the following:

IDoc outbound processing (from the point of view of the SAP system):
The number must be kept for any later status confirmations (see below).

IDoc inbound processing:
This field remains empty (the IDoc is generated in the SAP system).

Status confirmation:
The field must contain the number of the IDoc to which the status confirmation refers. Only in this way can the SAP system assign the status records to an IDoc.
