Debugging in IDoc Inbox/Outbox

Prerequisites

The debugger is provided as of SAP NetWeaver 7.0 SP15 (see SAP Note 959920). In SAP NetWeaver 7.0, the debugger has to be called using report RBDCONFIG. Transaction WEADM is available as of SAP NetWeaver 7.1 EHP1.

When calling the transaction or executing the report it is checked if the user has the necessary authorizations (object S_IDOCADM). The related activities are 02 to change and 03 to display.

Context

The purpose of debugging in the IDoc inbox/outbox is searching for errors in the dialog processing of the data. There is not enough time available as part of the dialog processing to be able to execute the debugging in the dialog session. With the new functions of the IDoc inbox/outbox you can define debug points where the relevant processes are placed into a loop so that they can be debugged in transaction SM50.

By calling WEADM or starting the report RBDCONFIG you can easily create and change the control entries for the debugging function.

Procedure

First you have to Define Debug Points, that is, create, edit, activate, or delete as required.
Then you can start the debugging for the related process in transaction SM50.
