Documentation
Use
A two-digit status is assigned to an IDoc to allow the processing to be monitored. Both the SAP application and the the external system (during status confirmation) must maintain the field with the correct value. For more information about these values, select Control -> Status maintenance from the IDoc Interface initial screen.
The statuses for outbound IDocs are between '01' and '49', while the statuses for inbound IDocs begin with '50'.
When an IDoc is created, the IDoc Interface sets the status in the function module EDI_DOCUMENT_CLOSE_CREATE. All additional status records are written explicitly by the function module EDI_DOCUMENT_STATUS_SET.
IDoc outbound processing (from the SAP system):
The IDoc Interface writes all status records.
IDoc inbound processing
The IDoc Interface writes the first status record when the inbound IDoc is created. During the processing, the application writes the status records using the function module EDI_DOCUMENT_STATUS_SET.
Status confirmation when using port type 'File':
The external system writes the status records in a status file, which is read by the SAP system. In this case, the confirmation always refers to outbound IDocs.
Status confirmation using IDoc type SYSTAT01:
The system sending the confirmation writes the status records as data records of IDoc type SYSTAT01. All port types and both directions can be entered.
