EDI interface with MM

Hi Gurus,
I want to have detailed information on EDI interfaces with MM. A detailed explanation will be highly appreciated.
thanks,
Kumar

Hi
EDI interface with MM can be anything that may be required as per the scenario needed. Any interface to SAP from legacy using EDI application. The most imagined interface can be Say there is a third party system in which Purchase orders or Req are entered by different Buyers and those need to be interfaced to SAP for creating the orders in SAP.
Similarly another thing that can be imagined is Material movements posting from a third party warehouse system
Please let me know if you have any specific question on this.
Thanks

Replacing EDI subsystem with SAP XI

Hi Everyone,
I have a scenario in place where i want to replace the EDI subsystem with SAP XI.
I know that using Content Master is one of the solution but i have also heard that Content Master is having some license issues. Now after Content Master what is the next best solution for parsing the EDIFACT and X12 format files.
Thanks and Regards

Hi Rahul,
SAP Conversion Agent by Itemfield is a data conversion system that enables you to create interfaces between any data formats and XML-based systems. The Conversion Agent can convert unstructured, semi-structured, and structured formats to XML, and the other way around.
Have a look at these links:

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.
For more i would suggest you to go through these links:

http://www.seeburger.com/fileadmin/com/pdf/AS2_General_Overview.pdf
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:

There are also a few ways to use EDI with the ALE system of R3.
inbound EDI to R3
1.use a 3rd party adapter for the EDI protocol(eg.SEEBURDER) from the EDI system,send the produced XML to the XI ,map the xml message to a matching IDoc using the IDoc adapter.
outbound ALE message from R3 to EDI system
1. Configure the ALE system to point to the XI the relevant IDoc (SM59,WE21,WE20...)
2.use a file adapter3rd party EDI adapter and map the fields to the target structure.
have a look at this example:

Details on how to configure can be found on SDN
I hope this helps....

ECC 6.0 Upgrade from 4.7 - EDI Interfaces

Hi Gurus,
Need your inputs on what are the precautions to be taken during ECC 6.0 Upgrade related to EDI Interfaces. with SAP upgrading from 4.7 to ECC 6.0, do you see any precautions need to be taken considering the middle ware involvement. Also, is there any changes in IDOC Structures in ECC 6.0 which my cause issues related mapping with middleware.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
C.L. Narasimhan "CLN"

Hi,
generally, a release upgrade, delivers new idoc/message types or new releases of existing idoc/message types.
So, taking this in mind, you shouldn't have problems for the mapping of the messages, because the versions of the basic idoc, once released, cannot be changed.
You might have some application problems related to the inbound interfaces, but this is part of the game...the testing phase will highlight whether the problem exists.
A known problem is that the upgrade removes all the customer specific entries in the system table EDIFCT.
Further details are provided in the OSS note [https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/865142]

Hi,
Are you using any Middleware for interfacing SAP with external system..

How to add new payment methods to an existing EDI interface to bank

Hello:
<b>Requirment:</b> Need to add two new payment methods to an existing EDI interface to bank. As of now only USD EFT's are sent. With the new set up we need to be able to send CAD and USD checks and CAD EFT's to that particualr bank.
<b>Scenario:</b> The payment methods are all set up in the payment program. I need two separate variants on the program RFF0EDI1 thats triggers the EDI file. The trigger of the EDI after the payment run should have a different variant... but the message type ought to be the same.
Can some one please exlpain how I should go about setting this up. Thank you.

I figured out the way to do it myself, after poking around the system for hours together.
All I need to do was to make config changes in FI12- define the posting rules and the bank accounts the checks needs to be drawn against. Also adding the payment method "C" in the DME section of the FI12. Next check and see if the Idoc message types have been set to what was required by clicking on "EDI partner profile in the DME section. Also to have different varaints for the program RFF0EDI1 , I just had to goto SE38 select the program and create the new variant. For enabling EDI I had to do some config changes in FBZP- MAINTAIN PAYMENT PROGRAM CONFIGURATION: PAYMENT METHODS in country, Delete the entry made in the "Name of print data set" in the form print section and enter "RFF0EDI" under "Name of the print program" in the form data section. If anybody needs any other information , please let me know. Thanks everyone.

How do I use an audio interface with iMovie?

I'm trying to shoot a short clip of a musician playing. I want to use an interface with my higher end mics, and use iMovie '09 to shoot video. I have a Presonus Firebox as my interface. iMovie just doesn't seem to want to recognize it, nor record through it. This isn't something I can share to GarageBand because the timing between the video and audio has to be perfect. Any help?
Thanks

Just buy the proper adapter cord, such as MiniDisplay port to HDMI for example. Plug it in and it will be automatically recognized. Use System Preferences > Displays to set options.
The display can Mirror your primary desktop or Extend the Desktop.

Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative to iCal that will interface with the Cloud? I find iCal to be poorly designed and not very efficient.

Does anyone have a suggestion for an alternative to iCal that will interface with the Cloud so it works on the iPhone and the Macbook? I find iCal to be poorly designed and not very efficient. I waste a lot of time entering information because you can't go to a specific day and enter information, nor can you navigate between months and add information on a specific date by clicking on the date. You can't easily scroll month-to-month and once you do by scrolling through nine months to get to where you want to be, you cannot enter information by clicking on a specific day in the month and entering information. I just called Apple and they verified that this is the way it works. You cannot go to a date and enter information, you keep getting thrown back to today and then you have to go into the calendar and change it manually on the screen. It is just not efficient.

APC, CyberPower are reliable.
Look for 1500VA. As example:

Creation of Server Proxy for Message interface with External Defination

Dear All,
I am getting a problem while generating a server proxy for the inbound interface . The request message used in the inbound interface is a external definition which is uploaded using a XSD file. The XSD file was supplied by a third party which is having very high complex strucuture and used lot of abstract data types in the design. When i tried to generate the proxy in the R/3 system (Transaction SPROXY) for the inbound interface i am getting following error.
Interface uses external and internal message definitions
Message no. SPRX122 *
Diagnosis
In a message interface you can use messages from different sources:
Message types and fault message types edited in the Enterprise Services Repository
Messages imported into the Enterprise Services Repository (external definitions, RFC, IDoc)
In the current message interface, message types from different sources have been used. Since messages from these different sources must be handled differently during proxy generation, such a mixture of messages within a message interface is not possible.
System Response
The interface cannot be generated.
Procedure
Change the interface definition accordingly in the Enterprise Services Repository.
Please guide me, how to generate the proxy for the interface with external defination message. I could nt geneate manullay, because it is having very high complexity and its a big structure.
Is there is any way to generate the proxy for interface with external definition
Regards
Vijayanand

Hi,
i. Import your message schemas from external definitions, or RFCs or IDocs from SAP systems. These definitions already contain data types.
ii. Create a message interface and reference the messages of the external definition, or the RFC or IDoc message.
Check this, it may help you

Interface with multiple hard drives

I am looking to buy a Mac Pro later this year, although want to learn about everything now, so I am well educated when I buy it ^^
I was reading around http://macperformanceguide.com/Mac-LightingFast.html and it brought up a question. Right now I have a 170 GB MBP and a Time Capsule... If I were to get a Mac Pro with the proposed SSD Launch Drive and Hard Drive data drive, what would the interface be? Would it be similar to the interface with a time capsule, with different hard drives listed in the finder window? Or would it ask me to specify where to write? Or would I manually choose a 'default write to' on all my applications?
Thanks
Ben

Buy your own SSD, RAM and hard drives.
Mercury Extreme Pro 6G SSD
Mac Pro Memory
There are 4 internal drive bays, get it stock, skip getting an apple branded SSD they tend to not be best of class. All drives have to be 3.5" SATA or use an adapter to fit the sleds. Other than application preferences for where a media library is, default location for documents, scratch, and of course you can put your /Users/myaccount on a data drive.
My PCs have 1.2GB/sec of SATA bandwidth. Double the 600MB/sec that is shared by 4 SATA ports.

XI interface with third party using Java API

Hi All,
We have the following requirement:
XI needs to interface with an external third party system which has JAVA API capabilities and the corresponding JAR files available to us.
I have seen a few threads where it was mentioned that we could call the Java methods directly in User Defined functions:
Process Integration (PI) & SOA Middleware
My question: Is this approach feasible in our scenario? Also I guess we do not need to configure any adapter for this Java Method call within the UDF.
Your help will be greatly appreciated and rewarded.
Regards,
Jai.

Thanks Stefan.
Our requirement has slightly changed. We have installed a thirdparty application on XI Server (within our network , inside filrewall). The application with Java API Jar file. All it does is a Lookup and retruns a value.
We are planning to import the Jar file into imported Archives and call the method within a UDF.
Is this feasible? I am going to give it a try.
Your expert comments are greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Jai
