Partner profiles in PI

Hello all,
I am doing a File to Idoc Scenario. I have done almost all the configutations and now a bit confused about the partner profiles. What are they for and where they are used? Should I create the partner profiles both for the sender (third party) and the receiver systems (ECC) on the receiver system (ECC)? or Should I create just for the Sender system?
Please help.
Thank you.
Ramesh.

Hi
1. You must have a partner profile to communicate with a partner using the IDOC interface. This will provide the parameters for electronic interchange of data with Trading partner in SAP
2. Partner profile should be created at receiver system for sender system to receive the IDOC this is called Outbound partner profle

3. You can send partner profiles to the receiving systems if you are sending IDOC

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.

Multiple Logical Systems in Partner Profile for one instance

Can we create multiple Logical Systems in Partner Profile (WE20) for one instance or one System? If it is possible, can we create Logical System with respect to Plant/Country?

I am not quite sure if I understood your problem completley. But let's see...
Usually you use on on MSCS Cluster Group per SAP instance. So you have your already existing NW 7.0 ABAP stack in a separated Cluster Group, and you create a new Cluster Group for your new Java system.
You can find more information about it in this guide here on SDN:
Link: [High Availability;
More information about High Availability Setups for SAP System can be found here on SDN:
Link: [High Availability]
If you want to use the same database for your clustered ABAP stack and your new Java stack you can do a MCOD installation.
Please see Link: [SAP Note 388866 - Multiple Components on One Database - Installation|https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/388866]
Hope this helps.

Which version of ECC are you using?
In ECC 6.0, you have to activate CVI (Customer Vendor Integration)

Limitation on number of partner profiles

Hi,
I am working on SAP Retail implementation. As you know, in SAP Retail, we consider each store as customer and there will be seperate partner profile of type customer for each store.This is for integrating SAP with point of sale (store).
Since number of stores are more, around 1000, i feel it's not good solution to create 1000 partner profiles. Please let me know whether there is any alternative for this and also whether there is any limitation on number of partner profiles that we can create.

There is no limitation for partner profile creation

Kindly help in resolving the error.
Thank u in advance.

Hello Prashant,
You are missing some configuration for the partner function;
Go- to
SPRO>IMG>QM>Quality Notifications>Notification Creation>Partners>Define partner Determination Procedure>
Again Select "Define Partner Determination Procedure".
Select Quality management> Change Partner
Now Select Q2.
Compare settings with Partner Determination Procedure on any other client. Also check Partner functions on the same screen.

Why T-RFC Port canu2019t handle Partner Profile Segment Release Version.

Can TRFC Port handle the segment release of each of the segment if configured in Partner Profile.
As per sap, in Partner Profile, if we maintain the two field "Seg. Release in IDoc Type" and "Segment Application release" to a SAP Release lower than the current release version then all the segment populated by the IDoc adapter should be populated as per the lower release structure.
For test Purpose I have created two IDoc using File Port and TRFC port and for both of then I have maintained the Partner Profile Fields "Seg Release in IDoc Type" and "Segment Application Release" as 46C although the latest release is 701.
In the IDoc there is a custom segment ZE1PMX with two Version Release 46C & 701. 46C is having 7 Fields and 701 is having 9 fields.
Test using TRFC Port: Using TRFC port the IDoc that is getting generated are not having the segment structure of release 46C instead of that it is taking the segment structure of latest release 701 which is having 9 fields.
Test using File Port: Using File port the IDoc that is getting generated are having the segment structure of release 46C instead of latest release 701 which is having 7 fields which is desirable.
I have also done these testing in other SAP release like 700 and found that while saving the partner profile with a lower segment release number it throws an warning message as "Segment definitions missing for release 620/620" and IDocs are not getting generated with a error status Code 2 "Segment E1BPMEPOITEM1 is unknown in Release 620 /". But from release 701 sap allows us to save the Partner Profile without warning and also creates the IDoc without error but the segments takes the latest release structure instead of the release maintained in the Partner Profile.
If any one has already done some investigation on this issue please let me know why there is a difference in TRFC Port and File Port. Is there any other configuration that is missing for T-RFC Port.

Hi Dennis
This forum is focused on [SAP NetWeaver Gateway|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/gateway], i.e. the (relatively) new OData/REST-orientated mechanism to expose ERP data and functions.
You're talking about the ('classic') Gateway i.e. the service that runs on port 33<SYSNR>. As a result, you are better off posting in the forum that covers that Gateway, i.e. [Application Server Infrastructure|SAP NetWeaver Application Server;
The names do make it confusing, for sure.
Good luck!

Error while generating Partner profiles

Hi,
I am not able to crate the Partner profile. When I try to Generate the Partner Profiles from the Distribution model (Masterial Master) it give me following error,
"Outbound parameters for message type MATMAS MATMAS05 could not be created
Please enter a valid value for the output mode
Outbound parameters for message type SYNCH SYNCHRON could not be created
Please enter a valid value for the output mode"
Can anybody tell me how to solve this problem??
Thanks in stack.

How did you try to generate the Partner profile?
Can you pls try the following...
execute report "RBDCUS15" and give the model view/partner for which the entries needs to be generated.
Also, give the appropriate values for "Outbound Parameters" like version, packet size and output mode.
Thanks,
Renjith

Partner profile in case of Idoc to File scenario

Hi
I have ECC system and PI system. Scenario as :
ECC will send the Idoc to PI ..PI system will Convert this to flat file and provide it to Legarcy system
I made Partner profile in sending system (ECC) and maintained Message type 'MATMAS' as Outbound.
Do i need to maintained the MATMAS in Partner profile of PI also?.
As PI has copied the Idoc MATMAS.MATMAS05 from ECC.
I am confused please suggest

Hi,
MATMAS05 should be configured as outbound paramters of ECC and no need to configure any thing at PI Partner Profile..
All you need to do is to create the Distribution model as sender (ECC) receiver (PI) and message type as MATMAS05...
with appropraite RFC destination name and port.....
if you are new to distribution model and like to know tcodes for the same just check the below link

Inbound delivery partner profile question

Hello,
Based on the help documentation, i have setup a distribution model between ECC and EWM system.
After executing this transaction /n/SPE/OL19, my distribution model is properly generated and I am able to send Idoc from ECC system. However on on EWM system, I am getting an error related to message type DELINF is not found in inbound partner profile.
I searched in WE80 and I do not see this message type in SCM system, can someone kindly suggest if the below mentioned message types used in ECC are right and on the SCM side I have only one message type which is SYNCH.
Following message type in ECC
DELINF
DELORD
/SPE/LIKP.DELIVERYCHANGE
/SPE/LIKP.REQUESTCHANGES
/SPE/LIKP.SAVEREPLICA
BUS2015.DELIVERYCHANGE
BUS2015.SAVEREPLICA
BUS6050.EXECUTE
Following message type in SCM
SYNCH.
Am i missing some setting which is preventing from idoc to be posted in EWM to generate inbound delivery request.
If someone could suggest what are the message types should exist for inbound in EWM side or DELINF needs to be added in EWM system.
Appreciate your suggestions/comments.
Thanks
Bhaskar

No..you can not know it.There is no log.

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.
My Scenario details:
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,
6. Creaed a new business service for sender and added "Adapter Specific Identifier with Logical system created (for SAP R/3) on SAP XI.
>>>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

Partner Profile in Idoc

Hi ,
I have created a partner profile of type logical system. If i dont specify anything in the inbound parameters and send an idoc to this partner profile then how would the system respond.
Regards
Arun

INBOUND processing the IDOCs are transferred to the interface and stored in te SAP system. The document data is generated in the course of workflow.
In this section the SAP system is made known to the upstream system (startrfc program parameters). Conversele, the upstream system is made known to the SAP System via the port definition.
INBOUND Processing - Create Function Module.
This function module is called when a message type, of the ZINVRV, comes into the receiving system. This needs to be configured. The function module is passed the IDOC as a parameter.
Use the T.code WE19 to test inbound function module in debugging mode.
Use the T.code EW05 to view the IDOCs and their statuses.
Rewards if useful.

Checked particular entry xxx partner profile is inactive status. how to make partner profile active? can basis or abaper do this work?
