Export SAP IDOC Structure as DFDL

We want to use DFDL to validate IDOCs in "SAP Ale Idoc" format, which is the bytestream (fixe length) format.

Thefeore we request to generate a DFDL file with the structure while the SAP Adpater wizard extracts the IDOC format from SAP

    Thank you for raising this RFE. I note from this RFE and the associated PMR you have been pursuing that you are attempting to validate a message using DFDL which originates from SAP (and which has then been transmitted to a subsequent flow using ALE Passthrough option). I gather that you would like an easier way of generating the DFDL model rather than via the import of a C structure from SAP. We approve of the principle of your suggestion which would make achieving your desired use case an easier usability experience. Status of this RFE is updated to Uncommitted Candidate.
