I'm raising this question again: IDOC sender info

Question

in an IDOC to file scenario, i m sending an IDOC from a SAP system,
for doing so, i m triggering the IDOC from we19(picking IDOC no. of an already sent IDOC from we05),
Now, in the EDIDC of the IDOC, i give the port/partner no. of the receiver, now the problem is ...what should i give as the sender port/partner no, what is its relevance.......

Answer 1

yes bhavesh..thanks a ton...really...
that means when i maintain that sender sap system in the SLD, i will use the same name as that SAP system uses to send the IDOC...means the name "SAP"SystemIdClientNo.....
and one more thing, do i need to have a port maintained in the XI to import the IDOC metadata, from the sender SAP system, coz...i have seen in the SXMB moni trace that:
<Trace level="1" type="T">Get the Metadata for port SAPSD1</Trace>
  <Trace level="2" type="T">----
</Trace>
  <Trace level="2" type="T">IDX_STRUCTURE_GET Details</Trace>
  <Trace level="2" type="T">Port : SAPSD1</Trace>
here SAPSD1 is the sender system....
means its trying to import metadata usinng this port.....SAPSD1...
