Can PMI be used with non-SAP systems?

For example we have an interface that travels through several systems and servers before being fed into XI (and back).
So far as I know PMI only starts when XI picks up the message. Are there any agents, API's or any method to PMI enable other applications to send data to the central PMI collector system so we can see a complete view of the process? Or is that just wishful thinking? Thanks folks,
David

Hi David,
The solution seems to be difficult as per below link.
Please let me know if you find any solution.

How to integrate the portal system with non-sap system

Hi Gurus,
How to integrate Portal system with non-SAP system?
I know few ways .......Using Usermapping UIDPW method.
Using Appintegrator .....and using Business repository objects in JCA?
Is there anyother way to integrate if so please give me the names and steps for integrating it?
Thanks in Advance,
Dharani

Hi Dharani,
You can get information from the following links:

SAP CONNECTORS:- Basically Connectors are like middlewares , that we use to connect to the backend system including Non SAP systems also. Will try to explain it to u with some examples of SAP Connectors:-
a) SAP Business Connectors:-
A middleware application based on the B2B integration server from webMethods.
The SAP Business Connector enables both bi-directional synchronous communication and asynchronous communication between SAP applications and SAP and non-SAP applications.
The SAP Business Connector makes all SAP functions that are available via BAPIs or IDocs accessible to business partners over the Internet as an XML-based service.
The SAP Business Connector uses the Internet as a communication platform and XML or HTML as the data format. It integrates non-SAP products by using an open, non-proprietary technology.
b) SAP Java Connector:-
SAP Java Connector (SAP JCo) is a middleware component that enables the development of SAP-compatible components and applications in Java. SAP JCo supports communication with the SAP Server in both directions: inbound calls (Java calls ABAP) and outbound calls (ABAP calls Java).
SAP JCo can be implemented with Desktop applications and with Web server applications.
SAP JCo is used as an integrated component in the following applications:
1) SAP Business Connector, for communication with external Java applications
2) SAP Web Application Server, for connecting the integrated J2EE server with the ABAP environment.
SAP JCo can also be implemented as a standalone component, for example to establish communication with the SAP system for individual online (web) applications.
To Know more go through,
SAP Java Connectors
II) ALE Concept:-
ALE is not restricted to communication between SAP systems, it can also be used for connecting SAP Systems to non-SAP systems.
By using IDocs as universal information containers, ALE can reduce the number of different application interfaces to one single interface that can either send IDocs from an SAP system or receive IDocs in an SAP system.
SAP certified Translator Programs can convert IDoc structures into customer-defined structures.
Alternatively, the RFC interface for sending and receiving IDocs can be used in non-SAP systems.
In both cases you need the RFC Library of the RFC Software Development Kit (RFC-SDK).
This link gives a great insight into landscape for Connectivity to Non-SAP systems:-
SAP to Non-SAP systems
III) Communication Between SAP Systems and External (Non-SAP) Systems using RFC:-
When you use RFC for communication with an external (non-SAP) system, you can also implement the SAP Java Connector or the SAP .Net Connector for the conversion of data. However, there are no specific security requirements for these components, since they only perform internal system conversion functions.
The additional security recommendations for communication with external systems in this section make particular reference to cases where an external system is used as a server (SAP calls the external system). If you use an external system as a client (the external system calls SAP), the appropriate SAP-specific security mechanisms are implemented on the SAP side.
This link explains in detail all the security considerations you need to take for connecting to an External Non SAP system like, User administration, Network Security etc.

Down-/Upload files via Web Services using a NON-SAP system!?

Hello,
is it possible to down-/upload files via web services using a NON-SAP system!?
Regards,
Jens

Hi Jens,
I am not sure about your requirement here. What i could understand is that you want to check whether service could handle file processing?
1) Uploading file - You can build a Webservice which has import/export parameters as the file structures and implement the proxy class in such a way that the passed data is written to application server.
2) Downloading file - Same as uploading file, but the proxy class would have the code to extract data from the application server and pass them as output parameter.
Functionality of Non SAP system: The system which calls these services should be able to convert the output of proxy data into file in case of downloading the file and it should be able to convert the file data into export parameters in case of uploading file.
Hope this helps.

Prasanna

Can iMessage be used with non iOS 5 users, ie non-apple users. My new i-pad 2 error message says these contacts are not recognized by imessage when I try to text some of these contacts.

Can iMessage be used with non iOS 5 users, ie non-apple users?
My new i-pad 2 error message says these contacts are not recognized by imessage when I try to send them a text.

So that means that I can send text messages through my i-phone to reach non iOS 5 users, but not through my i-pad 2.

IDoc adapter with Non SAP systems

SAP XI 3.0 help says:
You can use the IDoc adapter to connect SAP systems (as of release 3.1) and non-SAP systems with the Integration Server using native IDoc structures
What does this mean?
-Naveen.

Hi Naveen,
Let me give a use-case in one of our projects ....we have 2 middlewares in our landscape...webmethods and XI...and in one particular instance there was a need to send an FI IDoc from webmethods to XI and forward it to R/3....
In this case, the webmethods was treated like any other sap system for receiving IDoc into XI(with settings in IDX1)...
Hope this might clarify a little bit...
Thanks,

Can PPDS be linked to non sap system which records production

Hi, We are currently planning with SNP and PPDS but for part of our business, the manufacturing execution occurs in a non sap black screen archaic system. Is there any way to consume PPDS planned orders with the data from an external Production recording system? Or is the only way to consume PPDS planned orders via using SAP R3/ECC?
I have dug through the MES PDF and the BAPIs and cant find a way to "consume" the PPDS planned orders without using SAP R3.
Thanks
j

Hi Lokesh,
There is no limitation to connect two non SAP Systems,PI will support to connect two differt non SAP Systems.
The reuirement you mentiioned bit not clear,what i understood is use JDBC Adapter at sender side and SOAP adapter at receiver side.How to use these adapters search in sdn you will find tons of documents.

Http communication with non-sap system

Hi ,
We have a requirement to send OM related data to a non-sap system using HTTP post in XML format and receive the response from that external system. We are on ECC 6.0 and we cannot use XI at this time.
What would be the correct approach to do this? I read that we could use ICM for HTTP communication am I on the right track?
Thanks

Hi ,
We have similar type of requirement, if you have the solution then let me know .
Thanks in adv

Can LAUTHSVR be used with non WebLogic LDAP servers?

Is it possible to use LAUTHSVR with other LDAP servers like MS Active Directory?

Martin,
LAUTHSVR currently does not support ActiveDirectory. BEA Product Management
is aware that some customers would like to use alternate LDAP servers and a
future release of Tuxedo may or may not contain enhancements in this area.
With present releases of Tuxedo, it is possible for an application to modify
the $TUXDIR/lib/AUTHSVR.c source to write whatever sort of authorization
server is desired, but the application will need to handle interactions with
the ActiveDirectory LDAP server themselves if this approach is followed.

Using ale u can send from sap to sap and sap to non sap systems

hi,
using ale u can send from sap to sap and sap to non sap systems,
then what is diff b/w ALE and EDI

Hello KALYAN KUMAR,
Application Link Enabling (ALE)
1.You distribute data using ALE if you want to communicate from one system to one or more other (mostly internal) systems.
2.ALE transfers data in IDoc format and uses the methods of tRFC for data transfer.
3.ALE enables the integration of business processes across several SAP or non-SAP systems.
Electronic Data Interchange (EDI)
1.You use EDI if you want to exchange business application documents with an (external) partner system (for example, a customer or vendor).
2. The SAP system sends EDI messages in IDoc format to an EDI subsystem, where they are converted to a universal EDI standard (UN/EDIFACT or ANSI/X12).
3. This enables communication with non-SAP systems.
By definition, two partners are involved in the process in an EDI application scenario: The sender and the recipient of an EDI message
I hope u understands the difference:)

Interface module in GTS from Non-SAP system

Hi, GTS experts,
Can you give me some hint please.
Now I'm plannning to connect Non-SAP system to GTS.
Are there any interface modules or something in GTS?
At least, following objects & actions are to be transferred and maintenanced.
- business partner (customer or vendor in ERP)
- customs product (product in ERP)
- customs document & customs declaration document (document in ERP)
- release of blocked customs document
regarads,
Katsumi

Hello Katsumi,
Some further info to what has been provided above, here is how the following function groups align with data from the ECC system:
/SAPSLL/API_1006 -> Business partners
/SAPSLL/API_6800 -> Customs documents
/SAPSLL/API_6850 -> Products
For each group there usually is a function module for individual or mass update, e.g.
/SAPSLL/API_6850_SYNCH
/SAPSLL/API_6850_SYNCH_MASS
The function modules in these function groups are remotely-enabled (i.e., they are BAPIs).
It is, thus, true to say that GTS can interface with non-SAP systems. Some GTS users have done this. But you have to use some sort of connector technology to build up the proxy and call the function modules (e.g. JCo) from your non-SAP system directly.
Regards,
Randy

Initiate web dynpro from non-SAP system

Hi all,
My costumers are using a non-SAP system, and I need to open a SAP purchase order from this system (based on the order number). Is it possible to put in a link on the non-SAP system, that initiates a web dynpro pop up filed with a SAP purchase order?
Please advise.
Thanks

Hi Thomas,
WebDynpro is technology native to SAP. WebDynpro Application is developed, utilizing the runtime , libraries & underlining platform in the SAP system. However when webDynpro component is to be used, its consumed as a simple Web Application( i.e you have a URL to invoke it ), thus if you have a WEBDYNPRO application, with fair amount of knowledge of HTML & JAVAScript you can call the URL, which is going to display you the webdynpro application.
so in effect a webdynpro application would appear as good as a webapplication that CAN be called on Browser from any where, but to build & change it you need SAP Netweaver.
Greetings

HOW TO SEND THE REPORTS AND THROUGH XI TO NON -SAP SYSTEM

Hi Experts,
I want to know how to send the reports and smartform through xi to another system. All the post blogs are just explaning only about the FILE-TO-FILE, FILE-TO-IDOCS scenarios only.

Hi,
XI is the middleware that to be used to transfer the data between various systems and even you could design the Business Processes with it.
In R/3 the smartforms, are generally converted to PDF and then have to send it across to Non SAP systems. Similarly you can convert the smartforms to pdf format and keep it on application server. XI will pick up that pdf and will send it to Non SAP system either as mail or as an attachments.
ABAP reports are normally used to re-present the data. If you need to transfer this data across the Non SAP systems then you have the IDOCs to be generated, RFC or ABAP Proxy to integrate this data with Non SAP system.
XI is not restricted only upto file to file or file to IDOC scenarios. It have enormous capabilities to involve various Business Processes as well integrate various SAP or Non SAP systems.
If need anymore specific details, please let us know.
Thanks
Swarup
