After using SAPODA

The business object definition that SAPODA generates from an IDoc type, BAPIs, RFC-enabled function modules, or SAP tables representing a business process may not contain all the information required for the connector to process the business object. Therefore, after SAPODA finishes generating the definition, you must add all required information to the definition. Use Business Object Designer to examine and modify the business object definition, and to reload or copy a revised definition into the repository.

When saving a business object to the file system for the ALE module with Business Object Designer, you need to load the sap_idoccontrol object first. This object is delivered and not generated by SAP ODA but is required before saving the parent business object to the file system.

For information on modifying a business object definition, see the Business Object Development Guide. For information on the business object definition that a specific connector module requires, and the modifications you must make before the connector can process it, see the appropriate module's documentation:
