SAP idoc error

Post by battaliou »

We had a change in the structure of an idoc being read into server with a new field being added. Meta data imported ok but when we ran the job, the following error message appeared:
GOWIL_TR: IDoc exception: CIDocMetaDataTree::FindField(): No metadata available for the fieldPACKED_QTY'

Our work around here has been to search for the related ido file on the ascential subdirectory, rename it and recompile the job.

Is there a better way of doing this?
3NF: Every non-key attribute must provide a fact about the key, the whole key, and nothing but the key. So help me Codd.

Alas, no. It is best practice to keep them all in a standard location, to make this kind of task easier.
