Advantages and Disadvantages of IDOCs
By Roshini
Advantages:
- The
target system need not be always online. The IDOC would be created and would
send the IDOC once the target system is available (tRFC concept)
- No
additional programming required. Configuration is the only one need to be
set up.
Disadvantages:
- Receipt/Processing
on the target system need not be immediate
- When
no standard IDOC is available, then it is very hard to create a custom IDOC
when compared to creating a standard BAPI
- Unless
ALE is used, it is difficult to trace if the IDOC has actually reached the
target system.
