Additionals: Additionals Monitor 

Use

The additionals monitor provides you with an overview of the additionals documents that the system generated through previously triggered follow-up actions, and their status. The entries in the monitor differ depending on the follow-up action:

·        Generate additionals IDoc immediately

An event in an application (such as the posting of a goods movement) triggered the generation of an additionals IDoc.

·        Generate additionals IDoc when requested externally

An external communications partner called the BAPI to request additionals data, and thus triggered the generation of an IDoc.

·        Generate additionals purchase orders

An event in an application led to order data for additionals being updated. The report for generating additionals purchase orders was then started.

The monitor shows whether the system created an additionals IDoc or purchase order successfully. If this was not successful, you can analyze the error in the monitor. After you have clarified the error, you can re-start the generation of the IDoc or purchase order in the monitor.

Integration

You can trigger the generation of additionals IDocs or purchase orders in the additionals monitor.
