Creating a Flat File Schema from an IDOC
Module for EDI provides the wm.b2b.edi:createIDOCtemplate service to create flat file schemas from an SAP IDOC. This service queries the SAP system directly for the IDOC that you want to use to create the schema. For more information about this service, see webMethods Module for EDI Built-In Services Reference .
To create a flat file schema from an SAP IDOC, you must perform the following high-level steps.

For descriptions of all the input parameters, see the descriptions of the wm.b2b.edi:createIDOCtemplate service in webMethods Module for EDI Built-In Services Reference .
