Partner Profile Transport/Import

hi everyone,
    Is there a way to transport a single partner profile from production server to development server? If not, what are the easiest possible way to duplicate a Partner profile?
regards,
jay

Hi Jay,
For your first question: I think you cant transport a partner profile. You have to create it on every system.
Coming to your second question i think to move a vendor from one system to another you will need to have a custom program doing it, very similar to a data load programs. May be if the ALE setup is enabled then you can push it using std ALE programs or tcodes starting with BD*
I think for Vendor it is BD14. You can use this tocde and create a Vendor from production to test. You will need to have the underlying ALE setup in place.
I dont think there is other easy ways to create a vendor from production without custom development.
Hope this helps.
Cheers

    Hi guys,
    Can someone help me in figuring out  the need of message server and group after importing IDOC into IR. where can i find the message server ip address?

    Hi,
    >>>>----> how to transport XI objects to production system?
    the easiest way is to use file transport
    you can export a file from IR and ID and import it into QAT and then into PRD
    all you need for ID is to create transport targets in SLD
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ef/a21e3e0987760be10000000a114084/content.htm

  • How can we transport the partner profiles and Port configurations

    Hi everybody,
    How can we transport the partner profiles and Port configurations. While creating these , system will not ask for Dev class and we cant assign any Transport request number. Then How can we transport these settings?
    Your replies are really apreciable.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Vijay.

    Hi,
    please have a look of the OSS note: 182172
    >>
    The partner profiles are stored in the following tables:
    Table EDPP1: General partner profile
    Table EDP12: Partner profile outbound, additional data NAST
    Table EDP13: Partner profile outbound
    Table EDP21: Partner profile inbound
    Table EDIPHONE: Connection to SAP telephony (optional)
    You can use R3TR TABU to manually set the tables into a Customizing request (as of Release 46, into a SYST-type request).

  • Importing Trading Partner Profiles

    Greetings,
    Is there an XSD that captures our notion of Trading Partner Profile? If so, is there a back door way of importing XMLs of that type into an Oracle Integration B2B (I suspect there's no way of doing that from the console)?
    To elaborate, IHAC who is trying to migrate from an existing B2B deployment to Oracle Integration. In the process, we will need to recreate the tons of TP profiles they've already configured in Oracle B2B. The good news is that those existing TP profiles TPs can be exported into an XML format. If we support that format ourselves, that I was thinking of running their XMLs' through an XSLT to align it with our format, and then importing those XMLs automatically.
    On a related note, I'd be interested to know if we understand ebXML CPPs and CPPAs, because in general, that would be a good way of importing TP profiles and agreements, regardless of their origin.
    Regards,
    Karthick

  • Is it possible to transport partner profile settings ?

    hello,
    is it possible that whatever partner profile settings i have maintained in development server that i can transport into production server?
    or i have to maintain it manually?

    Hi,
    Partner profile setting are actually soft configuration and you cannot transport them.
    You have to set partner profile in all stages.

  • Can I transport partner profile settings frm one system to other?

    hello,
    is it poosible that whatever partner profile settings i have maintained in development server that i can trasport into production server?
    or i have to maintain it manually?

    Hi,
    Usually you have to maintain manually the partner profile in production system due to security and data integrity purposes.
    For example, you don't want to send any testing data to your partners (vendor, customer, etc) and you want to make sure the interfaces (inbound and outbound)  work properly and free errors.
    Having said that you can distribute and generate partner profile (BD64) from DEV to QA without using transport system. Please ensure RFC connection are setup properly for DEV and QA systems prior to distribute.

  • Taking Dump of Ports, Partner Profiles etc before Client Deletion

    Hi,
    Let me firstly tell you about the requirement.
    I need to delete a 9TB client using TDMS. And then re-create it again for users. Now the problem is , that the Partner Profiles, Ports will be deleted when I delete the client, which I cannot afford to loose are there are a lot of them.
    So, what is the best way to take a dump of the ports and partner profiles and other relevant things. I tried taking the table entries into transports and thought of re-importing them. But I'm not sure what all tables will be there as there are many like :
    EDPP1 (general partner profile),
    EDP12 (Message Control),
    EDP13 (outbound parameters)
    EDP21 (inbound parameters)
    Partner function exists in table TPAR
    Outbound process code exists in table TEDE1
    Logical message type exists in table EDMSG
    Process code exists in table TEDE2
    What is the table for Basic Idoc type
    Port is defined in table EDIPORT  but where is their assignment to the Logical Name its not in this table.
    There would be so many tables that are interdependent and I don't wanna loose even a single one of them.
    Please advice the best option,  as I am nearing the deadline to delete this client.
    Your help is really appreaciated.
    Thanks.

  • Partner profiles and ports

    How to transport the configuration of partner profiles and ports from Development to Quality systems.

    Hi vidya,
    Go through this hope u can get the solution.
    WE20 Partner Profile
    Here we create partner profile for each and every partner from / to which
    the messages will be exchanged.There are 6 types of PF generally only
    profiles of type LS(Logical System) ,KU(Customer) ,LI(Vendor) is used.
    We specify the partner number and partner type and the agent and
    the agent type responsible for handling of errors .
    For every message send to the partner we have a outbound record and for
    evry message coming from the partner we have the inbound record .
    We specify the message in the otbound/inbound records ,double
    clicking will take us to the detailed screen where the IDOC Type ,Port
    and whether the IDCO will be immediatelt processed or collected are
    mentioned.
    WE21 Port Definition.
    There are 6 types of ports but only 2 types File and Transactional RFC
    types of ports are important.
    We have to specify the RFC Destination before a port can be created.
    SM59 RFC Destination
    Here we specify the login settings for the destination including
    the I.P address or Application Server name and the User name and
    password.The information entered here is used to run Remote Function
    Calls(RFC ) on the destination server .We can create number of types
    of RFC Destinations but 3 types are important .
    R/3 (R/3 to R/3), LS(logical system) and TCP/IP.
    The name of the RFC destination should be same as that of Logical
    System as it helps in creation of automatic partner profiles.
    BD64 Distribution Model . Also known as Customer Distribution Model Used to
    define all the messages that will be exchanged between remote systems
    and the name of thes logical systems. Any filters can also be specified.
    The model once created has to be distributed on every system which will
    be communicating ,It can be maintained on only One system.

  • Logical system and partner profile configuration

    Hi,
    I have a SQL server which is defined as a Business system in my landscape. It is sending records to ECC 6.0 which makes it a JDBC to IDOC scenario (inbound IDocs)
    First question is do I have to mention a logical system name for the SQL server Business system too ?
    Second question is do I create a Logical system in the ECC system (BD54/SALE) for the SQL system or would it be for the client of the ECC system itslef?
    Third question is do I maintain partner profile configurations in WE20 for the SQL business system or for the ECC business system?
    Thanks in advance.
    Cheers,
    S

    Hi Sam,
    > First question is do I have to mention a logical system name for the SQL server Business system too ?
    Yes, In SLD You have to specify logical system name of the SQL server business system while creating SQL system.After importing business system into Integration directory,in Adepter-Specific Identifiers  you can see logical system name of SQL server business sytem which you defined in SLD.
    > Second question is do I create a Logical system in the ECC system (BD54/SALE) for the SQL system or would it be for the client of the ECC system itslef?
    Yes,You have to create Logical system in ECC system for SQL system(Logical system name must be with the same name as logical system name you have given in XI SLD in previous question)
    > Third question is do I maintain partner profile configurations in WE20 for the SQL business system or for the ECC business system?
    In WE20 You have to maintain partner profiles for SQL server Logical system
    For example: If SQL server Business system name is SQLDEVBS and logical system name is SQLDEVLS
    In ECC you have to create logical system as SQLDEVLS and
    Partner profiles for SQLDEVLS in WE20.
    Please let me know if you have any issues.

  • Getting EDI:Partner profile not available.

    Hi,
    I am a newbie to SAP XI. As I am doing File to IDOC scenario, I am getting error - EDI:Partner profile not available.
    <u><b>My Scenario details</b>:</u>
    1. Created RFC Destination, RFC port, logical System and Partner profile in both Sender (XI) as well as Receiver(SAP R/3) systems.
    2. Created SWCV, Technical sys, Business Systems in SLD. I used the Logical system created (for SAP R/3) on XI system in my business system.
    3. Created Data type, Message type, Message interface, Message Mapping and Interface mapping in Integration Repository and activated them.
    4. Imported IDOC from SAP r/3 system during Namespace creation and used it for mapping.
    5. used Integration Directory wizard to create Communication channels, Sender & Receiver agreements, Receiver Determination, Interface Determination.
    6. Creaed a new business service for sender and added "Adapter Specific Identifier with Logical system created (for SAP R/3) on SAP XI.
    7. Activated all Standard Change list items.
    The file for the above Scenario has been picked up amd i am getting "Chequered Flag" on both ends in "SXMB_MONI" monitor. When i change over to SAP R/3 to check idocs created (i.e., T.code - we05) my scenario idoc status is 56 and it says.. Status; Idoc with errors added.
    I  have gone through many of the forum suggestions and blogs regarding this issue, but still not able to resolve my problem.
    can somebody suggest me solution please.
    Thanks,
    Vijay.

    Hi,
    <i>6. Creaed a new business service for sender and added "Adapter Specific Identifier with Logical system created (for SAP R/3) on SAP XI.</i>
    >>>Check this for Reciever Business System.. not for Sender system..
    BTW, if you get chequered flag in XI, then idoc data is sent from XI. Can you check  all the data from XI is populated in the idoc structure in SAP R/3 in we05...by clicking each segment.. if so, then there is no problem from XI..
    check WE20 ..partner profile configuration in R/3 also check inbound parameters are given

  • IDoc Receiver, Error in we02 - EDI: Partner profile inbound not available

    Hi All,
    I have a problem when creating a receiver IDoc from XI to R/3.
    I have successfully tested the IDoc when populating the receiver information from the payload. However I want this information to be populated automatically based on the logical systems.
    When I do this I get the following error in the IDoc in R/3:
    EDI: Partner profile inbound not available
    In the control record the sender information is all correct but in the recipient information the partner Number with type LS is populated, but port is not populated.
    I have done the following steps.
    •     the sender is a Business Service so I have created a logical system directly adapter-specific identifiers in the sender service in the integration directory.
    •     In the receiver business system I have imported the logical system into the adapter-specific identifiers in the ID from that specified in the SLD.
    •     In the receiving R/3 system using SALE/BD54 I have created a logical system for the source system.
    •     In the receiving R/3 system using we20 I have created a partner profile of type LS with the same name as the source logical system.
    •     IN PI/XI system in transaction IDX1 I’ve created a port (SAP<SID> where <SID> is the system ID of the receiving R/3 system) and the client of the R/3 system, and the RFC destination of that system (<SID>CLNT<clnt>, as specified in SM59).
    •     In the IDOC Adapter (receiver) I have entered the RFC destination and port matching those created above. All checkboxes are UN-checked eg. take sender from payload, take receiver from payload, Apply control record values from payload, etc. are all NOT checked.
    I think that I’ve done everything correctly, but I get the error in we02 in R/3: “EDI: Partner profile inbound not available.”
    Any help will be greatly appreciated (and rewarded, obviously).
    Thanks,
    Matt.

    HI Matt,
    Can you please copy paste the exact error message....In your error message it will show you Exact partner Number / Logical System name and other parameters...just compared if you have all parameters set in your partner profile comparing to error message...
    If you can giev screen shot of both..then probably would be easy to point out error.
    Hope this will help.

  • Task properties - General task -  Partner profile

    Hi Experts,
    I'm using user decision step for manager approval, and in development server i've selected task as general task in task properties and everything was working fine in development server.
    When above workflow development transported to testing server, the task properties are not transported. So, agent assignment is de-activated. And when i'm trying  to set general task attribute in task properties, its saying "Entry in outbound table not found" error message. Can anyone help me in resolving this.
    Entry in outbound table not found
    Message no. E0400
    Diagnosis
    No partner profile (outbound parameter) could be found using the following key:
    DC1CLNT10/LS//HRMD_ABA///
    This refers to the key fields in table EDP13:
    RCVPRN  Partner number
    RCVPRT  Partner type
    RCVPFC  Partner function
    MESTYP  Logical message
    MESTYP  Message code
    MESCOD  Message function
    TEST    Test indicator
    Thanks in advance,
    Siva Sankar.

    Hi Siva,
    I have always found that I need to go make change the agent assignment on custom tasks to 'General' as the workflows get transported - or you can investigate here:
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/d00a1cb4-913c-2c10-d991-caf663ab9b16&overridelayout=true
    As Jocelyn Dart has said:
    Folks, This is an oldie but a goodie.
    You need to execute program RHMOVE30 to add your General Task settings to Transports.
    Enter your task numbers (you can enter a workflow and use eval path TASK_HIER to pick up all sub tasks) Select the Transport checkbox
    On the second screen
    Select all and press Add to Transport
    Select all again and press Transport/Delete
    You should get a message confirming they have been added to your change request.
    You will see infotype 1217 entries on your transport request.
    However your issue seems to be a different one.  I searched and it looks as though you need to check partner profiles using WE20?  Have you tried this?
    Hope this helps,
    Sue

  • Partner profile settings.. for IDOC to File

    i am trying to send Idoc to XI system from my r/3..
    once iam sending from r/3 we19 ,i am getting error like this
    receiver port " port name " does not exist in the table of port descriptions ..
    how can i maintain receiver port in sender sys..?it is asking for RFC destination which is there in receiver sys but not in sender ....
    how should i configure...
    (Note: i have sent file to Idoc with same configuration settings..)
    NOW
    i am sending IDOC FROM IDES TO XI as FILE
    Control record :in we19 ( IDES5.0)
       (XI-System)(SYS ID =O36)    (IDES5.0)(SYS ID = O20)
           Receiver:                      Sender:

    i have maintained outbound settings in T90CLNT090..
    thanks in advance..
    Ramesh..
    THANKS FOR YOUR QUICK RESPONSES .HERE I added ALL DETAILS OF CONFIGURATION..from which iam getting error

    Hi,
    Steps to do ALE Configuration with respect to IDOC:
    Configuration in R/3:
    1. Create a RFC destination using Transaction = SM59
    2. Create the ports using we21 and refer the port to the created RFC dest in above Step.
    3. Create a Logical System using Transaction BD54.
    4. Create a partner profile using transaction WE20.
    Also need to configure in XI:
    1. Create a RFC destination using Transaction = SM59
    2. Create the ports using Transaction IDX1 and refer the port to the created RFC dest in above Step.
    3. The port has to be displayed in the IDX2 transaction and we should be able to view the idoc’s which we imported through integration repository otherwise we have to manually import the idoc’s from IDX2 using the port created above
    Also refer to the link below for further details:
