Documentation

Use

The function module reads the IDoc data in the inbox.

In the outbox for the port type 'programming interface', the function module transfers IDocs from the IDoc interface and processes them further. In this way you can freely define the follow-up processing. SAP delivers the function module OWN_FUNCTION as a "border".

Supplementary Documentation - EDI_FCTNAM0001

Use

Function module (FM) for IDoc inbound processing

Procedure

When the configured IDoc is to be processed, by sending the IDoc directly to a FM, the FM of a defined interface must suffice.
The interface of the FM must correspond to the interface which is used by the FMs responsible for IDoc processing from Rel. 3.0 onwards. This is described in the IDoc documentation.

Examples

The FM IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS, which processes inbound orders, follows this defined interface.
