Note

This action is used to load sample XML documents for the requests, responses, and messages exchanged with the ERP system. These communications can be in different paths in the XML document. Each call to the XML document should handle a specific communication type.
You are already using the ERP system.
The following message types are available:
Error

Information
Success
The following interface structures are available:
Business Application Programming Interface (BAPI)
Intermediate Document (IDoc)

You must handle exceptions in the document received from the SAP BC.
