B2B Scenario inputs required..

Hi All,
We would like to perform a B2B scenario (SAP R/3 -> PI -> X12 810), So we have a Flat file Invoice Idoc which can be mapped to PI and we want to generate equivalent ANSI X12 810. This is for testing purpose only and we don't have Seeburger adapter.
Can we implement this scenario? If so please let us know how to proceed
Thanks
Ramani

Yes you can use File adapter at receiver end,but JAVA Mapping have to give output in the form of X12 staructure, it is going to be a tough logic to implement,but we can do it.
for referece saptechnicaldotcome one article availble on the same, it will help you to go further.

B2B Scenario both sides are R/3 systems

Hi...Experts,
i am doing B2B Scenario , that requirement is we are using both sides R/3 systems, from receiver side they want to send the response to sender.. Source is Asynchronous and Target is Synchronous ..
what types of adapters are sutable for this requirement....
pls give me ur valuable suggestions.

Pasi

As Order Response is required, this cant be achieved using the idoc acknowledgments.
U may configure ur scenario in this manner:
Make an Idoc to Idoc scenrio. In this case Idoc receiver will be ORDERS (as u said ORDERS response is required). Now the Inbound processing code of the receiver Idoc should trigger the Idoc response Idoc. There should be again some ALE settings to handle this ORDERS response idoc. This way it will be sent only to XI and will behave as a separate scenario.

JMS in a B2B scenario

We have a scenario where external partners will transmit requests to our application, which will reply back with some results. Some of the other requirements for our application are: support for concurrency, scalability, high avail, etc.
We feel that using EJBs to model our application will help us because the EJB container/appl server will handle security, transactions, etc. That's good - but, our problem is how would the external client applications communicate with us ?
One solution would be: we expose the remote interfaces of our EJBs and the external applications code to that interface. But, this may mean that any time we change our interfaces, the external applications also need to be changed. This may be a pain ;-)
But, what if the external applications send requests encapsulated in a mutually-agreed message format and receive responses via messages ? Yes, I am thinking about JMS. Our external applications can send messages to queues in our JMS provider. Our application picks up requests from a "request" queue and inserts results into a "results" queue. The external applications will obtain these results from this queue.
I was going to spend more time researching on this, when I came across the JMS FAQ, which says that JMS is to be used only within an enterprise, while ebXML messaging is recommended for a B2B scenario.
Before I discard my current line of thinking, I would like to get some input/advice/suggestions as to whether JMS will work in our scenario. If not, what kind of an architecture would help us ?
Thanks a lot !

Hi,
I don't think you need discard your current thinking. Yes some JMS implementations are best placed in the enterprise however some are designed specifically for external connectivity and building business partner networks. Our own product ( Nirvana ) is one that has been designed for externally facing middleware connectivity. Our messaging functionality resides above a pluggable transport layer and supports sockets, SSL enabled sockets, HTTP and HTTPS transports. The whole proxy and firewall traversal problem is handled correctly. There is no requirement for a web server ( although we have produced an Apache module for reverse proxying ) running a suite of servlets.
We are currently packaging a new release that provides a new JMS implementation as well as a P2P framework. All of which runs over our pluggable transport drivers. The P2P framework supports the concept of BOP's ( Business Object Proxies ) , this functionality allows you to create services that are directly accessible from pretty much anywhere.
We would be more than happy to provide you with an early access distribution prior to us updating our web site. Please feel free to contact us.

Modify the login page (login.jsp) of B2B scenario of the Internet Sales app

All
I wanted to modify the login page (login.jsp) of B2B scenario of the Internet Sales application
By typing the URL "http://<servername>:50001/b2b/b2b/init.do." I could able to see the login page
My requirement is to add an extra link in this page
when I use showmodule=true it gives the location of jsp which is "user/logon/login.jsp"
I could able to find this jsp in the DC "crm-isa-web-b2b"
when I open the DC in package explorer i could able to locate this jsp in a jar file but not able to open/modify it
Awaiting experts response
Thanks
Murali.K.N

When I work on ours ISA4, I go to the file on the server
\jsp\crm.b2b\servlet_jsp\b2b\root\b2b\login\login.jsp
Now, I'd imagine there might be a much easier way to work with the files, but that's how I edited ours.

B2B Scenario (????) Help

Hi All
We have a req which was given very short. The invocice details are to be validated in a screen and are to be posted into R3 (Client's customer). I hope this makes a B2B scenario. Need your suggestion in how to goahead with this req. Initiaaly i thought of having some websrveice consumed and using either HTML client or EP the user can vlaidate the invoice data and post to R3 of the clients custmer. Kindly adivce on this and also link me to some useful docs adresing a similar scenario.
thkx
Prabhu

Hi Prabhu,
I am sorry, I don't have any standard doc for your requirement because as stated earlier there is no difference in A2A and B2B scenario.
>> Validate invoice data.
- Use either ABAP report or webpage to display UI for user.
>> backend for invoice data
- If using abap report then ztable else any database table.
>> Send invoice data to customer.
- If you have any RFC destination for customer's client R/3 then you can import Idoc/RFC directly (I am assuming you are going to post Idoc in R/3).
--- Create JDBC-XI-Idoc (RFC) if you are using web GUI
--- Create RFC-XI-Idoc (RFC) if you are using ABAP report with ztable.
-If you don't have any direct connection with your customer's client then it is now tricky. Proxy/firewall comes into play.
--- Agree on common stepping stone which is accessible via both party.
--- create JDBC-XI-File (or HTTP) scneario.
--- Post file into customers R/3 either using RSEINB00 or any other ALE method.
--- You can also use AS2/AS3 adapter from Seeburger for communication.

Displaying same JSP page with different views based on BOB and B2B scenario

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement where, in the orderstatusdetails.jsp i want to add a button only for a BOB(OOB) scenario but not for the B2B scenario. I know how to display diffenretly by adding the code
mybom.getShop().getscenario()
in the action class i use and putting the codintion OOB or B2B but How can i code in JSP for this requirement? Can you please help me how to do it?
Thanks a lot in Advance!!!!!
Regards,
Lakshman.

Hello LRG,
Almost anything you can do in a Java class can be done in a JSP - but it is always recommended you do less of coding in the JSP. But this is an exception you can do in the JSP
All the inport classes required for this piece of code you have referred can be added to the page import in JSP. For example if you need the class UserSessionData then
<%@ page import=u2018com.sap.isa.core.UserSessionDatau2019 %>
will do the job in the JSP. Once you have all the required imports then it is just a matter of adding the piece of code in a Java scriptlet to get the scenario.
<%
//Code copied from the message reply by Michael Meyer
UserSessionData dt = UserSessionData.getUserSessionData(request.getSession());
BusinessObjectManager mgm = (BusinessObjectManager)dt.getBOM(BusinessObjectManager.ISACORE_BOM);
String scenario = mgm.getShop().getScenario();
%>
After this, is determined in any page, use the variable scenario, use it in a if clause and surround the button with that if clause.
<% if (scenario == BOBSCENARIO) { %>
//HTML code in the JSP here for the button when the scenario is BOB
<% } else { %>
//More HTML JSP code if the scenario is not BOB
<% } %>
Hope this is what you wanted.

About B2B scenario?

Hi Experts,
I am new to B2B sceanrios. I understand the basics that it is for communicating between two external systems, i.e outside the firewall.
But for using the B2B scenarios what kind of adapters can be used? And i am not able to find any test scenarios for this. Can you give me link or document showing the step by step procedure for B2B scenarios?
Thanks in advance

Hi Lavanya,
About EDI and AS2.
Third party adapters are provided by Seeburger which is used to integrate EDI scenarios. Adapters are AS2,VAN,OFTPS,X400.
Seeburger EDI Adapter provides an EDI solution on internet via HTTP or AS2 to replace the expensive VAN. It provides some pre-built mappings for IDOC to ANSI X12(810,850,855,856 etc.,) and Idoc to EDIFACT(ORDERS,DESADV,INVOIC etc.,) and has the ability to build your own. These pre-defined mappings transform the IDOC-XML to EDI-XML format.
These transformed EDI-XML messages are then converted to EDI specific format using the Seeburger's BIC(Business Integration Converter)adapter. In addition, Seeburger provides adapters like AS2,FTP(EDI specific) and so on to route these EDI messages to external EDI Partners.
Seeburger EDI Adapter leverages SAP XI's Adapter Framework. This Adapter is used to perform conversion between EDI and XML format. It also provides some canned EDI layouts and the ability to build your own. It is used to transfer the EDI message via HTTP or AS2 protocols.
The most direct way of using the Seeburger adapters is to configure the BIC as a module. There is a software component from seeburger called bicmapper which will allow you to do the following:
1. define or import the inbound message metadefinition in various formats ( edifact, xml,...)
2. using a mapping create an xml variant as the output metadefinition or edifact in the other direction.
3. create a one to one mapping between input en output.
4. export the metadata in xsd or sda format for import in XI
5. generate an SDA which can be deployed in XI and used as a module.
Please go through the following links which clearly explains what you want and it also helps you in understanding the same in depth:

For sending file in B2B scenario

Hello Friends,
I need to pass a file to my client's business partner...
I think its a B2B scenario...
So how to transfer a file my client to his business parntner.
Please suggest which adpter to use at receiver side and how to handle the configuration..
It should be secure and reliable

hi,
you have to use FILE ADAPTER but you need to use PARTY when you are using BPM
check this blogs for reference
BPM means Business process management
To deal with Multiple sender and receivers based on the conditions we could use BPM. Its one of the feature of BPM, but its not mandatory to go for BPM for each n every case. Its depends upon scnenario.
BPM steps are divided into two types:
1)message steps
2)flow steps
message steps are :
a)send step
b)receive step
c)receiver determination step
d)tranformation step
flow steps are:
a)control step
b)container operation
c)block step
d)wait step
e)fork step
f)switch step

Namespace issue in a B2B scenario

Hi all,
I have an iDoc to iDoc B2B scenario (R/3<->XI<->XI<->R/3),
My partner has defined an iDoc extention and sent me the xsd.
Now I have a problem in defining the interface because I don't have the same iDoc definition(different R/3 version) so I cannot import it into the IR, and I cannot define the message type and message interface as an external definition because the MI is in the iDoc reserved namespace.
How can I solve this conflict ?
Thanks,
Elad.

Hi Elad (or Ofir?),
my idea was to change temporary connection data for import from SAP system of SWKV. The question is, if you dont have connection to that system, how do you want to connect with XI and how do you want to test?
2. idea was: instead of imported idoc you just create a dummy interface in repository. The interfaces itselfes (and so the imported idocs) will not be validated by integration engine. Only if you use message mapping you really NEED a correct XSD schema.
So something like R/3 idoc -> own interface -> any mapping except message mapping -> loaded idoc interface -> other R/3
Regards,
Udo

How to test the B2B scenario ?

How to test the B2B scenario ?
Because the client may not give permition to test, then i heard one thing in RWB we can test the data, how and where we can test the data ?

Venkat,
Follow the below procedure.
Go to RWB, choose Component Monitoring , click Click Display
Expand Integration Server node -Click Integration Engine .
In the bottom of the page go to TestMessage tab.
In the Service/Interface/InterfaceNamespace enter the Sender Service & Outbound Interface details
Enter your username & pwd and choose the qos.

Strange white light appearing when password input required on locked apps!

Strange white light appearing when password input required on specific apps... Locked apps.
It is a thick white line) appearing momentarily on upper left side of my screen.
This only appears briefly as specific apps are opening up .....only on apps where a password is required,(locked apps) like password managers, Apple App Store, etc.
(this is a little troubling… And I'm wondering about the security of my phone now)
I'm using iPhone 5s with latest iOS 7.1 This only started after the latest iOS update!
Although this line appears very briefly, I was able to get some screenshots examples (see links)
[IMG]http://i58.tinypic.com/1zo9dt1.jpg[/IMG]
[IMG]http://i61.tinypic.com/260bns8.jpg[/IMG]
Apple has no idea what this is… They're only suggestion was to wipe the phone clean and reinstall from the last backup! If that doesn't work, they would replace the phone.
Before I have to do this, I'm wondering if this could be a phone app doing this, or the iOS or something easily explained/ remedied?
Any ideas?

Anyone have any thoughts on this? Searches and experiments
still not yielded an answer...

What is a B2B scenario definition from XI perspective ?

Hi All,
what is a b2b scenario in xi ? suppose, data flows from wholesale dealer database to companies r/3 system, will it be a b2b scenario ?

Hi,
Here goes a simple explanation :
A2A is application to application. When two applications in a company communicates with each other we call it an A2A scenario and if its across Companies we call it B2B or buisness to buisness.
B2B scenarios come in to picture when communication is between two Organizations or parties.
Let's say, there are 2 companies, and they have a different systems, which need to be integrated. For Ex: your client is using SAP R/3 and their customer is having some other technology. they want to integrate each Appications. this is B2B.
"B2B" is contemporary shorthand for a longtime sales practice called business-to-business. B2B transactions primarily target companies and other wholesale buyers, while transactions targeting individuals are called B2C, or business-to-customer. Many organizations have both B2B and B2C components, but it's not unusual for a company to specialize in B2B services or sales. In fact, the vast majority of products and services sold are considered to be B2B in nature
If you do the Intergration for the BP out side the Customer LAND SCAPE then it is called a B2B
The scenarion you are talking about falls under B2B , if the wholesale dealer database and r/3 system doesnot fall under same company (enterprise).
Hope this is helpful.
Regards,
Divya
