pub.sap.idoc:encodeString
Converts every SDATA field from a Document object to a String object.
This service is usually called prior to sending an IDoc to an SAP system via clientInvokeTransaction or by an RFC adapter service for function module IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS or INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS.
Note:
A client service pub.sap.client:sendIDoc allows you to send the iDocList directly.
Input Parameter
serverName
SAP system alias which is used as repository for structure information about the IDoc. The name must match a configured RFC connection alias at Adapter for SAP.
iDocRelease
Optional. The SAP system release that the IDoc will be sent to.
$encoding
Optional. Specifies the encoding used in the output document's XML header, e.g. iso-8859-1.
iDocList
- OR -
Contains the IDoc(s) as object of com.sap.conn.idoc.IDocDocumentList.
IDOC_CONTROL
IDOC_DATA
- OR -
IDOC_CONTROL_REC40
IDOC_DATA_REC40
Both keys are Document lists (Tables) containing the control and data tables for the IDoc.
The SDATA field is a Document object containing the keys and values from the segment table (the name of the segment table is specified by the SEGNAM field).
Note:
This service handles both IDoc versions 2 and 3. The difference between the two is that, for IDocs version 2, the service looks for IDOC_CONTROL and IDOC_DATA in the pipeline. For IDocs version 3, it looks for IDOC_CONTROL_REC_40 and IDOC_DATA_REC_40.
Return Values
iDocString
String. The IDoc in the file port.
