Who are we talking to ? Who's talking to us ?? Setting up an Idoc is not just about what to put in the message, it's also about where it is sent to and where messages are received from. The partner profile plays a central role in Idoc settings: inbound parameters, outbound parameters and message parameters can be set up on the partner profile.
The following can be set up on the partner profile:
- The message type (what is should do)
- port (where should it go)
- the process code (what should be done with inbound Idocs, or what function module should gather information for the outbound Idoc)
- triggering
- monitoring agent (workflow agent: the person that gets error notifications)
