Documentation
Use
As a reference, this field contains the number of a message from EDI standards.
An EDI message can therefore only exist in the external EDI subsystem. Depending on the transmission direction, this number should:
- either inform the SAP system via status confirmation: in this case, the last returned number is saved in the control record of the relevant outbound IDoc (from SAP).
- or in inbound processing (from SAP), write to the field in the control record of the inbound IDoc.
