SAP IDoc definition files can be created by selecting an IDoc from an existing IDoc list from SAP (online definition mode) or can be uploaded to Adeptia Suite (offline definition mode). Adeptia SAP Integration service uses these schemas to generate and validate IDocs in inbound and outbound processes.
