Doubt regaurding message server in IR, partner profile and transporting XI

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?
I am also wondering in the partner profiles when we need to use logical system (LS) or Supplier/vendors (LI) or Customers/debtor (KU) or etc.?
Please explain how to transport developer xi system to production server?
Cheers
Ram

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
so the names of your systems will change
you can also refer to this:

/people/sap.india5/blog/2005/11/09/xi-software-logistics-ii-overview
but as I mentioned file tranport is the easiest way
>>>>-------> How about the option group?
you can put everything in idoc import menu
and use separate option when asked

  • 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.

  • Partner Profile and its configuration.

    Hi all,
    I am creating an SD IDoc using EDI and send it between two servers.
    I need to know what is a partner profile and why should we create it.
    what are the steps to be followed in maintaining a partner profile and its configuration.
    Any pointers will be highly apppreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    Regards,
    Jose
    Edited by: Jose Anthony Reddy on Dec 17, 2007 11:23 PM

    Hi Jose,
    Below is a material you can go through .
    Creating an Outbound Partner Profile
    Here you must enter the data manually. Alternatively, you can also transfer the default values from Customizing.
    If you are not yet on the change screen of your desired partner, choose SAP Menu ® Tools ® IDoc Interface/ALE ® Administration ® Runtime Settings ® Partner Agreement (WE20).
    1. Position the mouse on your partner in the required partner type node. Choose in the Outbound Parameter table.
    Key Fields
    2. You have already determined partner number and partner type in general partner processing. The partner function from the master data defines the addressee, that is, it is used for further classification purposes. If you have selected outbound processing under Message Control (MC), the function must be identical to the corresponding Message Control field. Otherwise, it is optional.
    Partner A (customer 1110) wants to order a material from partner B (vendor 1014). Partner B is of the partner type “LI” (vendor) and must choose the Message Control value “VD” (vendor) as the partner function because orders must always be processed using Message Control.
    3. Specify the business process with the “logical” message, within which the IDoc type is used. The logical message is described by three parameters: The message type is based on EDIFACT message types: For example, a purchase order is of type “ORDERS”. You can further divide the message type with the optional fields message code and message function.
    4. Configure the test indicator if you want to send the message as a test.
    Message, partner and test indicator are the seven key fields of the outbound partner profiles (the client comes in addition to these). Also see the graphic at the end of this section.
    Other Fields
    5. In the Outbound options tab page, you can determine whether IDocs are forwarded immediately to the receiving system. You should ensure that your entries are compatible with the Message Control priorities, if you have chosen outbound processing under Message Control. A list of recommended combinations is provided in the section Outbound Processing Under MC: Procedure.
    6. You have already defined the Recipient port in Port definition.
    7. If a port of type TRFC is used, the Queue Processing field is visible. You can use the indicator to specify whether IDocs are to be sent with qRFC. This sending technique is only possible for recipient SAP systems as of SAP Web AS 6.20.
    You should only set this flag if it is really necessary that the IDocs sent are received in the receiving system in the same sequence as they were sent by the sender system. Queuing can cause posting delays in the receiving system, because an IDoc in the queue cannot be posted. In this case, the following IDocs in the queue cannot be posted until the error is resolved.
    8. If you have set the Queue Processing indicator, the Rule Name field, which you must then also maintain, appears as well. The rule name defines the rules for queue names. You can specify these rules in the transaction qRFC IDoc Queue Name Rules (WE85).
    9. Specify the IDoc type as the Basic type with or without extension. If you want to use a view of your IDoc type (for example, to improve the performance), specify this here.
    The figure below shows the m-to-n relationship between logical messages (business meaning) and IDoc types (technical format). Message 1, for example, is always assigned to one IDoc type, while message 3 is assigned to two IDoc types. IDoc type 2, in turn, is also assigned to 2 logical messages.
    10. The segment release specifies the release from which the segment definitions (not the IDoc type definition) originates. We recommend that you leave this field blank so that the most recent segment definition is used.
    11. You can propose an EDI standard, version and EDI message type for the receiving system in the tab page EDI Standard. Most subsystems, however, should be able to determine these EDI settings themselves (from the logical message).
    12. You can define permitted agents for cases in which exceptions occur. This entry overrides the entry in the general partner profiles. Depending on the message, therefore, the exception can be handled by different agents of the same partner.
    13. You can specify whether syntax errors are to be ignored or are to lead to a processing error (Cancel Processing flag under syntax check in the tab page outbound options). For more information about exception handling and permitted agents, refer to the following section: Exception Handling
    14. If your hardware supports it, create partner and message specific telephony data for outbound IDocs. For more information, see General Partner Profile.
    Graphic: Outbound partner profile fields (general)
    Key fields are shown in gray. The values for partner, message and test indicator (and client) therefore provide a unique ID for the IDoc type in outbound processing.

    Praveen

  • What is the difference between generate partner profile and creat partner

    What is the difference between generate partner profile and creat partner profile ?

    Create Partner ProfilesAlthough partner profiles are usually created automatically, because of the unusual inbound and outbound profiles needed on the same system, the manual generation of certain profiles is required.
    The following subsections describe the partner profile settings for the standard client (assumed here to be ALExxxCyyy), as well as for the corresponding dummy client (assumed to be DUMxxxCyyy). The dummy client partner profiles should have been generated by the automatic generation process completed previously. Nevertheless, these should be checked to ensure that all profiles exist.
    Generation of Partner Profiles
    The following messages should be added to the 4xx-ORDR model for ALExxxCyyy to DUMxxxCyyy on the reference client:
    • ORDERS
    • ORDCHG
    • ZINVRV
    • ORDRSP
    • INVOIC
    • FIDCMT
    • The partner profiles should first be generated using the standard auto-generation procedure on the reference client (for SYNCH messages to be created).
    • This model should now be distributed to the both ALExxxCyyy and DUMxxxCyyy.
    • The partner profiles should now be generated on the client being configured (i.e. yyy) using the auto-generation procedure defined in the standard ALE configuration procedures.
    Generate partner profiles for sending system. (Can only do this if at least 1 message type exists against the sending system's LS). This automatically generates the port if the LS and RFC name are the same.
    generate partner profiles tcode BD82
    creating partner profiles tcode WE20
     There are two methods for maintaining the partner profile:
     Maintain partner profile manually:
    To navigate to the partner profile in the sender system, choose Partner profile -> Partner type of Logical System and click on the required Target system. Under Outbound parameters, choose the Create outbound parameters icon, and enter the values for the outbound parameters according to the slide Sender: Partner Profile (outbound).
    To navigate to the partner profile in the sender system, choose Partner profile -> Partner type of Logical System and click on the required Sending system. Under Inbound parameters, choose the Create inbound parameters icon and enter the values for the inbound parameters according to the slide Sender: Partner Profile (inbound).
     Generate partner profile:
    Prerequisite: The current distribution model is distributed to all participating systems.
    In the sender system, choose: Generate Partner Profile, then check the result in the partner profile (outbound)
    In the sender system, choose: Generate Partner Profile, then check the result in the partner profile (inbound)

  • 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).

  • Billing invoice idoc out to file server via ALE partner profile

    Hi Folks,
              Can anyone tell me what partner profile I need to configure to have an INVOIC idoc go to a directory on the app server? Also I want to do this at the same time the invoice is physically printed. I do not want to do this in EDI as this would mean configuring partner profiles for all customers, so I want to do this in ALE.
    I am assuming I use the partner profile for LS a logical system and have an output type in invoice message control for the idoc with suitable condition records to ensure that paper and idoc media are both selected at runtime?
    Also I can get the idoc produced and to status 30 using EDI but what pushes the idoc out automatically from this point and will that be the same method once I get the idoc produced using ALE?
    Cheers,
    Ross Goodman

    no longer an issue

  • Same message type in different partner profiles in ALE

    Hi,
    I have a situation where we need to send an IDoc of message type ORDERS to two partners of type 'LS'. Configured partner profiles in WE20 and added message type for both the partners. Also configured the condition records.Now the question is how the system will know for particular vendors a particular partner 'LS' should be chosen? In condition records we don't have option to configure a vendor for a particular logical system.
    Please advice.
    Regards,
    Krishna

    For Vendors, why are you using LS, u need to use LI.

  • Regenerating ports for Partner Profiles and Source System (RSA1)

    Hello all you SAP gurus,
    During a recent backcopy we have an issue after updating Logical System names using BDLS. This has updated the Partner Profiles (WE20) correctly.
    BUT
    These partner profiles are trying to use ports (WE21) that have been mistakenly deleted. But if we try to recreate the ports we get the message
    -"Choose another name! Name range reserved!"-
    This specific port is referenced in outbound parameters. Perhaps this is stopping the change?
    We could create new ports and hook them up to the partner profiles, but I'm concerned that there might be other locations where the deleted ports are referenced.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hi J,
    You can try and disconnect and re-connect the BW System to R/3. That would force the recreation of the Partner Profile.
    Take a look at the connection data in table RSBASIDOC, write down the parameters, especially the IDoc Type.
    In SE37, run function RSAP_BIW_DISCONNECT_40 and specify parameters for BW System.
    Then run RSAP_BIW_CONNECT_40 and specify those parameter again for the BW System.
    This will recreate the Partner Profiles. Then check the assigned ports and see if you still have the same issue. Just make sure the RFC connection is set correctly and working in SM59 before doing all this.
    In any case, you can create new ports in WE21 and allow the system to assign the numbers automatically and you won't have any issue.
    Hope it helps.
    Regards,
    Luis

  • The change flag in partner profiles and how its used?

    can any one succinctly explain the use and purpose of the change flag in the message control part of the partner profile configuration?

    Hello,
    The value of this field is use internally in FM attached to the process code  for Creation/Change and in case of change, only the relevent changed data is sent ( taken care by attched FM).

  • Partner profile and partner number in output of order/invoice.

    Hello Experts,
    I want to know how system pick partner profile from output type triggered in sales order/invoice??
    I could see partner profile is different from partner number exist in output triggered in sales order/invoice.
    I want to know the triggering point of idoc from SO/invoice.
    Thanks

    The phrase "ouptut goes to partner" indicates that the partner will be recipient of the output type.  E.g., ship-to partner will be the recipient of the delivery and the delivery note.
    The use of an output partner in the output condition record is used to control the output device used in the output determination - a completely separate issue.
    Unless you are (e.g.) using different printers for outputs which will be sent to different partners, you would likely be better off using a more generic access for your output condition records.

  • Keep getting the message about "can't find profile" and I can't go any further.

    I've tried reinstalling firefox but the same message comes up...

    See:
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/how-run-firefox-when-your-profile-missing-or-inacc

  • EDI: Partner profile inbound not available Message no. E0337

    Hi Friends,
    I am facing very wiered issue for incoming vendor frieght invoice. When the IDOC is sent to SAP from the edi subsystem, it gets posted with status 56 and error message
    EDI: Partner profile inbound not available
    Message no. E0337
    Diagnosis
    An inbound partner profile could not be found with the following key:
    /0040000010/LI/VN/INVOIC/MM///
    This involves the key fields of table EDP21:
    -SNDPRN  partner number of sender
    -SNDPRT  partner type of sender
    -SNDPFC  partner function of sender
    -MESTYP  logical message type
    -MESCOD  logical message code
    -MESFCT  logical message function
    -TEST    test flag
    I have created the partner profile in WE20 for Partner type LI, partner role VN and process code INVL, message type INVOIC, message code MM. I have also checked the entry in TABLE EDP21 and the entry exists.
    When I open the IDOC in WE19, and click on standard inbound TAB it says partner profile not maintianed, however when i click on the control record it opens a dialog box, where we have all the entries for partner profile and when I just click on any field in the dialog box and click continue and when again click on standard inbound it say partner profile maintained.
    None of the data is changed in the IDOC control record, I just click on any field and it finds the partner profile.
    Please let me know your thoughts, what could be possible reason and a solution.
    Thanks
    Deepak

    Hi Deepak,
    I am facing the same problem with a different message type.
    But same effect. I can copy the IDoc with WE19 and it will process nicely, completely unchanged.
    Have you found the reason for this?
    Thanks,
    Florian
