Hi,
You can find the XI content for an SAP application in export files on SAP Service Marketplace at <b>service.sap.com/swdc</b> under Download u00AE Support Packages' and Patches u00AE Entry by Application Group u00AE SAP content u00AE Process Integration Content (XI Content) u00AE <XI CONTENT software component u00AE <XI CONTENT software component version> (you can find the name of the software component and the version in the master guide of your application).
You import the XI content by first copying the provided export files into an import directory on the host of the Integration Builder and then importing the files into the Integration Repository. In the following steps, <systemDir> denotes the path for the system directory of the host (generally, <systemDir> corresponds to \usr\sap\<SAPSID>\SYS\global).
       1.      Obtain the export files for the XI content of the cross-system application.
The files are generally stored as a ZIP file on SAP Service Marketplace (see above). You can use the naming convention of these ZIP files to find their SPS (support package stack):
<software component version><SPS>_<patch level>
The files SCM4003_00.ZIP and SCMBASIS4003_00.ZIPrefer to support package stack 03 with patch level 0 of the XI content.
Importing XI content with a later version does not overwrite the content that you have already imported into the Integration Repository. Support packages for XI content always contain both previous objects and the changes and enhancements delivered in the support package.
       2.      Copy the export files into the import directory for the Integration Repository (<systemDir>\xi\repository_server\import).
If the files are packed, you must unpack them before importing. (It is advisable to retain the ZIP files, see also the remarks for the last step.)
The actual export files have the extension .tpz. You must not unpack these files. The import directory is created the first time you call the Integration Builder.
       3.      Start the Integration Builder and call the Integration Repository.
To do this, perform the following steps:
                            a.      Log on to the SAP system on which your Integration Builder has been installed.
                            b.      Open the Integration Builder start page by calling it either from your user menu or with Transaction SXMB_IFR.
                            c.      Choose Integration Repository.
       4.      Choose Tools u00AE Import design objects to import the XI content.
Only the files from the import directory (see above) are offered to be imported. The sequence in which you import the export files is not important.
