Documentation

Definition

If you select this processing type, the IDoc you have created is written to a file in the file system and is then available for processing in the file as in inbound IDoc.
In addition, you can select whether inbound processing for the file should be started immediately. In this case, the file is transferred to inbound processing and deleted when processing has been completed successfully. This corresponds exactly to standard processing for an inbound IDoc file.
If inbound processing is not to be started immediately, the file remains in the file system, from where it can also be used as an inbound file for other systems during test processing.
