Summary :
When using the IDoc adapter in XI30, issues may arise in converting XI partners to IDoc partners, causing errors or improper conversions. Problems stem from discrepancies between the IDoc's EDI_DC45 structure, which requires sender and receiver details split into type, number, and role, and the XI SOAP header that differs in its setup. IDoc utilizes a more complex system including Logical Systems (LS) and B2B relations (e.g., customer, vendor). Solutions involve aligning XML payload transfer settings within outbound IDoc adapters and appropriately mapping identifiers for partner conversions to ensure data consistency and procedural correctness in the system's operational framework.

Key words :
