1. WE81 Create new message type ZMATMAS_SIMATIC
2. WE82 make connection between IDOC type MATMAS03 and message type ZMATMAS_SIMATIC
3. BD59 Create the field that we will use to filter the idoc in the distribution model
We will use plant (WERKS) and material type (MTKLAS) to filter the idocs:
Note: You can take a look at the standard message type MATMAS to find ALE object type and Segm. type
4. BD64 Create distribution model.
Press button Create model view to create a new distrbution model
Press select the new model and press button Add message type to add the new message type and the sender and receiver systems
Your distribution model should now look like this
Under the message type ZMATMAS_SIMATIC choose the filter and add the fields from step 3 and the filter cirterias.
We only want to distribute IDOC where plant = 1002 and material type is HALB or ROH.
You are now finished with the distribution model
5. BD60 To be able to use changepointers for the new message type, it must have a reference to the original message type MATMAS. You make this referecne in BD60.
6. BD52 In this transaction you set up the fields that triggers a change. Note that it is not possible to copy the fields from and existing message type (For example from MATMAS). However, you can use an existing message type in BD52 to find out Object and table name for the fields.
In the example below we only wants to trigger a change pointer when the material text changes.
7. You should now be ready to test that the change pointer works for the new transaction.
- Make a change to the material text for a material in plant 1002 of material type HALB or ROH
- Run transaction BD21 or ABAP program RBDMIDOC for message type ZMATMAS_SIMATIC
- Check that an outboudn IDOC has been created (Transaction WE02)
