...
IDocs, short for Intermediate Documents, serve as standardized containers for the exchange of data between applications. Within SAP applications, this data interchange is facilitated through the Application Link Enabling (ALE) layer, which, in turn, employs either tRFC or File technology as its underlying methods.
A single IDoc contains different types of information, such as application data intended for exchange (e.g., sales order) and technical data including source and target information. IDocs also contain status information that shows the current processing stage of the data exchange.
