How To Fix IDOC_ADAPTER152 - Metadata EDISDEF for port &1, IDoc type &2 and CIM type &3 not maintained

SAP Error Message - Details

• Message type: E = Error

• Message class: IDOC_ADAPTER - Messages for the IDoc Adapter

• Message number: 152

• Message text: Metadata EDISDEF for port &1, IDoc type &2 and CIM type &3 not maintained

What causes this issue?

Meta data EDISDEF for port &, IDoc type & and Cim type & not
maintained.

System Response

The conversion of external segment definitions to segment types could
not be found.
This could be due to the following:
1. The conversion data could not be found in the reference system (have
you released the IDoc or the segments?).
2. The conversion data was modified.

How to fix this error?

1. Check the RFC destination for the port in transaction SM59 that is
located in transaction IDX1.
2. Use the delete report to delete the IDoc type for the port and
refresh the meta data.
3. For security reasons, the reference system does not permit remote
access to tables. Maintain the data manually.
4. If you have already maintained the meta data for an IDoc type for
another port, you can copy the meta data in transaction IDX2.
