SAP IDocs (Intermediate Documents) are standard containers for exchanging data between applications. When IDocs are processed through SAP systems, they go through a series of standard status. Each status represents a processing milestone or processing error for the IDoc. The IDOC Explorer helps the user to visualize the entire IDoc process and diagnose the root cause of the errors.
The IDOC Explorer can be accessed by going to the detail page or an IDOC entity. Here you have an overview of IDOCs with the specified time period. Quick filters are provider here to narrow the list to a specific business partner (e.g. vendor/customer, integrated systems, etc.) or specific status (e.g. Error transmitting to the partner port, etc.) From here, users can double click on a specific IDOC to display the detail page.
On the detail page, the user can see the attributes and the history of the status changes for this IDoc. The Status change events are superimposed on the other related system events, such as RFC Errors, SAP Transaction Spans, Transports and Log Entries. The details of these events are listed below and allow users to drill down further.
The IDoc Explorer requires the installation of the New Relic Monitoring for SAP Solutions on the monitored SAP systems. Please refer to the installation guide for more details.

This application is primarily designed to be installed via the New Relic Application Catalog.
In New Relic One, navigate to your Apps section and click the IDOC Explorer application. The Manage Access button in the top right will let you choose the account where you want to make this app visible. It will be visible to all users of that account.
IDOC Explorer is also an Open Source application. You can quickly and easily deploy it manually using the New Relic One CLI.
Ensure you have git and npm installed. If you're unsure whether you have them installed, run the following commands (they'll return version numbers if they're installed):
git --version
npm -vInstall the New Relic One CLI. Follow the instructions to set up your New Relic development environment
