• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message E0658 - Basic IDoc type & has no extensions ?

  The SAP error message E0658, which states "Basic IDoc type & has no extensions," typically occurs when you are trying to use an IDoc (Intermediate Document) type that does not have any associated extensions defined in the system. This can happen in various scenarios, such as when you are trying to send or receive IDocs using a specific basic type that has not been extended for your particular use case.
  Cause:
  
  Missing Extensions: The basic IDoc type you are trying to use does not have any extensions defined. Extensions are used to add additional segments to the basic IDoc type.
  Incorrect Configuration: The IDoc type may not be properly configured in the system, or the necessary extensions may not have been created.
  Development Environment: If you are working in a development environment, the extensions may not have been transported or created yet.
  
  Solution:
  
  
  Create Extensions: If you need to use a specific IDoc type, you may need to create an extension for that IDoc type. This can be done using transaction code WE30 (IDoc Type Development).
  
  Go to transaction WE30.
  Select the basic IDoc type you want to extend.
  Create a new extension by copying the basic type and adding the necessary segments.
  Save and activate the extension.
  
  
  
  Check Configuration: Ensure that the IDoc type is correctly configured in the system. You can check the configuration using transaction WE20 (Partner Profiles) to see if the IDoc type is correctly assigned to the relevant partner profiles.
  
  
  Transport Requests: If you are in a development environment, ensure that any changes made to IDoc types or extensions are included in transport requests and moved to the appropriate environment (e.g., quality assurance or production).
  
  
  Consult Documentation: Review SAP documentation or consult with your SAP Basis or development team to ensure that the IDoc types and extensions are set up correctly.
  
  
  Related Information:
