Can Anybody explain me the role of xi in IS-Retail integration and POS cons

Hi AnilKumar,
Find the list is below:
Q: Role of xi in IS-Retail integration
Ans: **Business Content Scenario – Retail
Why using XI in this scenario
�� A push of ‘message type’ data to BW is required
�� XI supports quality of service ‘Exactly once in order’ in push scenarios
�� Stores deliver the data according to ARTS/IX-Retail
�� XI supports ARTS/IX-Retail
�� In case the stores deliver the data as flat files they can be easily transfered to XML format via XI
Business Content Scenario – Retail
Store Connectivity Scenario
�� Increase profitability by utilizing POS1 data for
controlling of retail processes and by understanding
customer behavior in a better way.
�� SAP XI as single point to collect POS sales information
as mass data from (3thd party) store systems via an open
industry specific interface (ARTS/IX-Retail2 compliant).
�� Using SAP XI as additional source for SAP BW
�� improved by Retail POS Data Management to
ensure better data quality

    CAN ANYBODY EXPLAIN ME THE GENERAL FUNCTIONING OF THE SD, MM, PP MODULES.

    Hi Santosh,
    Seems u r new to SAP.
    SD, MM, PP, FI ,CO,CRM ,etc... are the functional areas dealing in the SAP R/3 ERP.
    They all have their own transaction code and tables. But all are integrated and related to each other.
    For more info check these links.

  • Can Anybody explain me the difference between  a Bapi and a webservice?

    Can Anybody explain me the difference between  a Bapi and a webservice?

    Hi Anil,
    <b>BAPI</b>
    BAPI is a library of functions that are released to the public
    as an interface into an existing SAP system from an external
    system.A BAPI function is a function module that
    can be called remotely using the RFC technology
    BAPI are RFC enabled function modules. the difference between RFc and BAPI are business objects. You create business objects and those are then registered in your BOR (Business Object Repository) which can be accessed outside the SAP system by using some other applications (Non-SAP) such as VB or JAVA.
    In this case you only specify the business object and its method from external system in BAPI there is no direct system call. while RFC are direct system call Some BAPIs provide basic functions and can be used for most SAP business object types. These BAPIs should be implemented the same for all business object types. Standardized BAPIs are easier to use and prevent users having to deal with a number of different BAPIs. Whenever possible, a standardized BAPI must be used in preference to an individual BAPI. It is not possible to connect SAP to Non-SAP systems to retrieve data using RFC alone. RFC can acces the SAP from outside only through BAPI and same is for vice versa access.
    <b>Webservice</b>
    In simpler terms, WebService is an application on the Web/Internet. Wheneever Service is requested by the user, it provides the service (i.e Request/Response)
    A web service is a collection of protocols and standards used for exchanging data between applications or systems
    In SAP world, we can expose an application into the Webservice. For e.g We can expose ABAP programs into Webservice.
    XI uses SOAP adapter to communicate with webservices see below...why only soap adpater???
    -> Some remote clients or Web services providers are only able to communicate by means of SOAP messages
    ->SOAP adapter enables you to exchange SOAP message between remote clients and Web Service Servers and the Integration Server.
    -> The SOAP Adapter provides a runtime environment that includes various SOAP components for the processing of SOAP message.
    -> You use the SOAP adapter to connect such systems to the Integration Server directly
    -> The SOAP adapter uses a helper class to instantiate and control these SOAP components
    ->The SOAP adapter receives a msg from the remote client or Web service provider, converts the SOAP protocol into XI msg protocol and then sends the msg to the Integration Server to be processed further.
    Basically  RFCs BAPI are all SAP oriented, Webservices are language / environement independent. So, all one has to do is publish a Webservice and any external system by providing the data in the correct format, can get the approopriate response back.
    see these links to know more abt webservices..

  • Can Anybody explain me the difference between  a A2X and a A2A Service?

    Can Anybody explain me the difference between  a A2X and a A2A Service

    I dont think A2X refers to b2b Scenario as there is a big difference between B2B and A2A, this is quite a debatable arena. In the present case A2X can be where the application under consideration is communicating with an unknown third party application of which the only details we have are the field data to be sent/recieved etc. Its used more to describe a third party app, so its to be considered as an x-App. can be any j2ee app or .net app, the X here is used as a variable to denote the unknown till it becomes known..in which case the documents start referring to it as A2A.....
    Hope that helps

  • Can anybody explain all the details about idoc like configuration settings etc..

    Hi all can anybody explain the idoc configuration settings, communication channels sender and receiver settings

    Hi,
    Common steps in both Sender and Receiver:
    Create logical system and assign to client
    Create RFC Destinations in SM59
    Create RFC Ports in WE21
    Steps in Sender
    Create table in SE11 and insert data
    Create Segments in Tcode WE31.Define the table fields in segment
    Create basic IDOC type in WE30.Specify the above created segment name,save and release the IDOC
    Create message type in WE81
    Assign message type to IDOC type in WE82 and release
    Create partner profile in BD64,add the message type ,specify sender,receiver,message type and  generate partner profile and execute.Distribute the model view
    Check the partner profile in WE20
    Develop a report in SE38 with code that transfers the data from source to destination
    Execute the report and specify the fields to be transferred
    Check the control records in WE02
    Steps in Receiver:
    Create an update function module in SE37
    Assign the function module to logical message
    Define input method in Tcode BD51
    Create process code in WE42
    Generate partner profile in BD64
    After executing the report in sender system check in the destination system table wheather the fields are transferred
    In this case a custom table has been created in sender and receiver with same structure.We can even transfer the standard table fields by using idocs

  • Can anybody explain what is support for ADF Project and to solve the Issues

    Hi,
    I am new to ADF and i am currently associated to ADF Support Project.
    Can anybody explain what is support for ADF Project and to solve the Issues when the ADF Project is in Live.
    we are getting the Tickets for the Issues.
    Thanks in advance.

    I agree with Timo.
    It depends on the size of the project, user base, technologies, etc. We use lot of technologies in fusion middleware stack. We get tickets in many areas.
    In your case, it could be anything like user training issues (user may not know how to use the some system features), browser issues like blank screen, bugs in code like JBO errors (failed to validate, another user has changed row, failed to lock the record, NullPointerException, IllegalArgumentException etc), business logic issues, page may not render properly, performance issues, partial commit issues, application server issues, authentication issues. If you use web services you might get web services related problems.

  • Can anybody explain the difference REDOLG vs ARCHIVE log files

    can anybody explain the difference REDOLG vs ARCHIVE log files?
    and the relation between redolog files and redolog buffers?
    thanx in advance

    Changes made to the database are recorded in the Redo log buffer. This Buffer contains Redo records or entries, which are a description of changes made to the database.
    The Redo Logs are critical in order to recover the database or to reconstruct data files and undo segments after a system crash or hardware failure.
    Each Oracle instance has only one log writer process (LGWR). The log writer operates in the background and writes all records from the Redo log buffer to the Redo log files. When the database operates in Archivelog mode, the redo logs are are archived before overwritten.

    If you use extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) like <i>Adblock Plus</i> or <i>NoScript</i> or <i>Flash Block</i> that can block content then make sure that such extensions aren't blocking content.
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
    *Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

    If it works in Firefox Safe-mode then disable all extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one extension at a time until the problem reappears.
