Reprocess or Delete an IDOC in SAP S/4HANA

Standard SAP format for electronic data interchange between systems (Intermediate Document). Different message types (such as delivery confirmations or purchase orders) normally represent different specific formats, the IDoc types. However, multiple message types with related content can be assigned to one IDoc type: For example, the IDoc type ORDERS01 transfers the "logical" message types ORDERS (purchase order) and ORDRSP (order confirmation).

By being able to reprocess any IDocs, the transaction is quite useless for the classic SAP business user. For an SAP/EDI support team however,  transaction BD87 is a fundamental tool for checking and, if necessary, correcting IDoc processing in an SAP system. In the following, we introduce the most important functions and views of transaction BD87 and show which helpful functions are available for IDoc processing.

Using Transaction BD87, you can reprocess or delete an Idoc that is in error.
