Creating New BDoc Types and Services 

Use

BDoc types and services applied to the respective BDoc types in the message flow control are delivered in the standard SAP System. You can create your own BDoc types and services.

Each BDoc type provided by SAP has at least one standard flow context with a defined sequence of services. To include services you have created yourself, you have to enhance the flow context.

Procedure

Creating New BDoc Types

You can create new BDoc types using the BDoc Modeler. Choose Architecture and Technology ® Middleware ® Development ® Meta-Objekt-Modelling ® BDoc Modeler.

Then you have to define the new BDoc type interfaces (see Creating Interfaces for New BDoc Types).

Creating New Flow Services

To create a new service for an existing BDoc type, you must perform the following steps:

...

       1.      To implement the service create a function module in the Function Builder of the ABAP Workbench.

The Object Navigator in function groups SMW3_SAMPLEFLOWSERVICES and SMW3_SCARREXAMPLE contains various examples of services.

       2.      To apply this service to a BDoc type, you have to enhance the corresponding flow context of a BDoc type.
