Monitor inbound IDoc status in transaction WE05 (IDoc list) or BD87 (inbound processing); filter by direction (1=outbound, 2=inbound) and status code
Key inbound status codes: 53 = application document posted successfully; 64 = IDoc ready to be processed (held for manual or batch trigger); 51, 56, 60, 61, 63, 65 = various error states
For IDocs in status 64 (queued), use BD87 to select and trigger processing manually or schedule the ALE inbound processing report
To reproduce and test IDoc processing without a sending system, use WE19 to duplicate an existing IDoc, edit its segment data, and re-trigger inbound processing
Resolve status 51 (application error) by reading the IDoc's status records for the exact error message, fixing the underlying master data or configuration issue, and reprocessing via BD87
Known gotchas
Status 53 at the IDoc level does not guarantee the business document is fully consistent; always verify the created FI/MM/SD document independently, as a posting can succeed with warnings that are not surfaced in IDoc status
IDocs stuck in the tRFC queue (visible in SM58) have not yet been handed to the inbound processing layer; resolve RFC connectivity or queue issues first before reprocessing in BD87
Reprocessing an IDoc in status 51 via BD87 creates a new status record but does not create a new IDoc; if the fix requires changing segment data, use WE19 to create a corrected copy instead
