How does the supplier query inbound proxy method `ZII_SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUN~SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUND` work, and how should I implement the real processing logic?

`ZII_SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUN~SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUND` is the inbound entry point; it should stay thin, extract the change request ID from `input-mt_supplier_query_req-id`, delegate processing to `ZCL_MDG_SUPPL_UTILITY=>SEND_DATA_TO_SEP`, and handle casting errors with SLG1-style error logging. For the broader supplier-query pattern, the related implementation guide shows a direct update path plus a main update routine in `ZCL_SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUN`.

The supplier query inbound proxy method `ZII_SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUN~SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUND` is implemented as a thin entry point. It assigns the inbound CR from `input-mt_supplier_query_req-id`, delegates the real work to `ZCL_MDG_SUPPL_UTILITY=>SEND_DATA_TO_SEP`, and catches `CX_SY_MOVE_CAST_ERROR` to surface an application error. The related supplier-query pattern in the knowledge base also identifies `CHANGE_INBOUND_SPTO_MDG_DIRECT` and `UPDATE_INBOUND_SPTO_MDG` as the main processing routines in `ZCL_SI_S_SUPPLIER_QUERY_INBOUN`.

Process flow

  1. Read the inbound change request ID from `input-mt_supplier_query_req-id`.
  2. Pass the CR to a helper class instead of embedding business logic in the proxy method.
  3. Map the helper output back to `output`.
  4. Catch casting or conversion errors at the proxy boundary.
  5. Write the failure to application log / SLG1-compatible messaging.
  6. Keep the real supplier-query processing in the dedicated backend routine.
