  Check IDoc Status: Use transaction code WE02 or WE05 to monitor the status of the IDoc. Ensure that it has been processed correctly and check for any subsequent messages or errors.
  
  
  Verify Partner Configuration: Ensure that the partner profile (transaction code WE20) is correctly configured for the IDoc type being used. This includes settings for message types, processing types, and communication methods.
  
  
  Monitor Application Logs: Check the application logs (transaction code SLG1) for any related messages that might provide additional context or information about the IDoc processing.
  
  
  Review Communication Settings: If you are using ALE (Application Link Enabling) or EDI (Electronic Data Interchange), ensure that the communication settings are correctly configured for the partner.
  
  
  Consult Documentation: If you need further clarification on the IDoc structure or the data being sent, refer to the SAP documentation or the IDoc type definition.
