I am trying to configure SAP Electronic Data Interchange (EDI) to create a sales order in SAP using a file sent by our vendor.

I would like to have just the inbound process using message type ORDERS, and the basic IDoc type ORDERS05. I'm not sure how SAP will pick up this file. How do I do this?

Use SAP ABAP RSEINB00 for this purpose, or as the template for your own EDI transactions. Input is handled by function IDOC_INBOUND_FROM_FILE, in case you need to implement your own import logic in an ABAP.
