Replace process technology with Business Workflow (exceptions)

In this section, you convert the error processes of process technology from Release 2.1 to the workflow standard tasks. The old processes are no longer supported.

You can classify the corresponding standard tasks as "general tasks". Through this you make every SAP user a possible agent of this task and this ensures that if errors occur the permitted agent determined in the IDoc interface is informed.

Tasks and procedures affected

In Release 2.1, 2 processes were defined in the IDoc interface for inbound and outbound errors:

The followingprocess codes with corresponding standard tasks now correspond to these error processes:

Process code Standard task Meaning
EDIO TS00007989 Error in outbound processing
EDII TS00008068 Error in inbound processing

The following process codes with corresponding standard tasks are new:

Process code Standard task Meaning
EDIX TS00008070 IDoc syntax error (outbound)
EDIY TS00008074 IDoc syntax error (inbound)
EDIM TS30000020 IDoc could not be created.
IDoc administrator
is notified
EDIL TS70008373 Error when reading a
status file; IDoc administrator
is notified
EDIN TS70008037 Error in outbound: IDoc cannot
be generated,
but application document exists
and is displayed (outbound
under message control)
EDIP TS60001307 Error in outbound processing of an
IDoc stack (output mode
'collect IDocs'), as this
stack has also occurred
for each IDoc

Exception handling for

status confirmation is identified via the two following process codes:

Process code Standard task Meaning
EDIS TS30000078 Display of returned
status
EDIR TS70008125 Like EDIS; additionally the IDoc
can be resent
if an error status
was returned

Activities

Execute the activity. The system implements the aforementioned standard tasks and process codes for exception handling.

Set the indicator Tasks -> general tasks only when you have assigned possible agents for the aforementioned tasks.

You can perform a testrun. The system does not change anything. A log is created upon execution which shows what the system would change.

The indicator reset express flag is valid for all process codes affected. Also see the additional advice below.

Advice on transport

The process codes are entered in tables TEDE5 and TEDE6. The changes are not transported.

Additional advice

You have the possibility of setting an express indicator for each of the express indicators. The permitted agents are then informed of the new work item by means of an express message on their screen. Bildschirm über das neue Workitem informiert. You set the indicator in the initial screen of the IDoc interface (transaction WEDI) via Control -> Process code system/status.
