Context:
The main aim of this document is to explain how to transfer IDoc data from one system to another for testing purposes.
Scenario:
We need to perform end to end test for an outbound IDoc scenario in the development environment using the IDoc data present in ECC production system.
Procedure:
- Create a test directory in production ECC FTP server. Ex: /sapinst/IDOCflatfiles
- Note the production IDoc number.
- Execute the T-Code WE19 and enter the IDoc Number and press F8.
- Click on inbound file.
- Enter the directory along with the filename (/sapinst/IDOCflatfiles/FileName) which you created earlier in production FTP. Make sure that Start IDoc inbound processing of file immediately is unchecked and hit enter or execute.
- Now you can find a file created in the directory that was created.
- Transfer this file to your desktop.
- Create a test directory in the development ECC FTP server. Ex: /sapinst/IDOCflatfiles_Target
- Transfer the file from your desktop to the directory that was just created in the development ECC FTP server.
- Login to the development ECC and execute WE19 T-Code. Select File as template radio button. Enter the directory along with the file name and execute.
- Now the IDoc data is transferred from production system to development system for testing. Control record values have to be verified before testing.
