Documentation

Use

Like the logical message, the indicator belongs to the key fields in partner profiles. Thus in inbound processing for example, you can control separately whether IDocs are posted for test or productive purposes: Define via the process codes two different processing procedures for set and non-set indicators.

Applications

IDocoutbound
The application selection module receives the data via the parameter PARTOUT (partner profile).

EDI subsystem

IDoc outbound
The EDI subsystem must make sure that the EDI message generated is flagged as a test or productive message depending on the field.

IDoc inbound
The EDI subsystem must identify test messages by an 'X' in the field. The field must be filled to determine the correct partner profile in the SAP System.
