the segments, where we mapped few fields and if any field in not popping up,
then we will check in this record and ask ABAP team to add those fields.

can see all documents processed for that IDOC, we can check PO number and we
can see access sequence number wise.
We can have number like 53 for successful outbound and
13 for successful inbound.
Manual Processing:

will get generated, if not we can mention as collective IDOC and send those manually
by T-code BD87
