In the case of Outbound processing under Message Control, the process is found (function module of the application) via the outbound process code. The process reads the application data and places it in an IDoc.

You must edit the outbound process codes in the following cases:

• You have written a function module (for example for a separate IDoc type), which you want to name through a new process code
• You want to assign a different function module to process code X.
• You want to the switch the ALE services on or off. Deactivating the ALE services can improve performance (lower memory requirement)

• You determine the required process code from the corresponding partner profiles or via Documentation ® Process code in the Initial Node of the IDoc Interface.
• From the initial node of the IDoc interface, select Control ® Outbound process code.
• Select Table view ® Display/Change to change an assignment or to make a new entry.
