interchange between systems (Intermediate Document).
Different message types (for example, delivery
confirmations or purchase orders) normally represent the
different specific formats, known as IDoc types. Multiple
message types with related content can be assigned to one
IDoc type
Example:

ORDERS (purchase order) and ORDRSP (order confirmation).

ORDERS 1, and has the status records "created" and "sent".
