Documentation

Definition

The number that uniquely identifies document data that comes from an external, non-SAP system.

Use

When a sales document is transferred into the SAP R/3 System, the system displays the external number as part of related system messages. You can then see which data was, or was not, transferred from the external system.

Procedure

Header data should be identified by the document number. Item data should be identified by both document number and item number. You can construct the field differently, depending on the kind of data you want to transfer. It should always be constructed as exactly as possible, so that, if errors appear, they can be traced to the problem data.
