Creating a SAP ALE OTDs Wizard

The chapter describes how to use the SAP ALE OTD Wizard to create IDoc Object Type Definitions (OTDs). OTDs are used in the business logic in Java Collaboration Definitions and eInsight Business Processes. The SAP IDoc wizard is used to create IDoc OTDs.

You can create IDoc OTDs in one of two ways:

Let the IDoc wizard connect and retrieve the IDoc message format directly from the SAP system.
Provide the location for a saved IDoc description file.

To export an IDoc description file from an SAP system to be used by the IDoc wizard, see Exporting the IDOC File from SAP. Due to the significant SAPGUI changes that distinguish versions 4.6 and earlier and 4.7 and later, separate instructions are included in Saving the IDoc Description File (After 4.6).
