How to trigger alert in XI from a connected SAP R/3 4.7 system

Hi,
I have an asynchronous scenerio JDBC -> XI -> SAP R/3 interface.
How can I trigger an alert when the interface fails in the SAP system ?
BR,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
First , to create Alerts, Alert Rule, just check this blog,
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/09/09/xi-alerts--step-by-step
It will help you in doing your entire Alert Configuration.
Next,from SP14 onwards, activation of end to end monitoring is not needed for Alerting. Refer to this note 870232 for this info.
Next, to test if your Alerts have been defined correctly, go to SE38. In the program , type RSALERTTEST and then click on EXECUTE button ( F8 ). In the next window, it will ask you for your ALERTCATEGORY. Just give the name of your ALERT CATEGORY and click EXECUTE.
If you have configured your alerts correctly, you will receive a message that tells ALERT IS GENERATED and will give the ALERT ID.
Now, go to your Run TIme workbench and then select ALERT INBOX and see if you have got the ALERT message in your ALERT INBOX.
If this is working fine, then the last step, implement the note 913858.
If you are below SP14, also check this blog,

How to trigger alert (SALERT_CREATE) from remote R/3 system? Help!

Hi Experts,
 Here is my business reqmt:
XI reads inventory file and makes a RFC Function module (YREAD_INVDATA) call to R3 system.
In R3 system function module I have written business validation logic.
If any validation fails then I have to trigger alert. The CCMS alert is setup in the XI system. So to trigger alert I am making a RFC call (CALL FUNCTION SALERT_CREATE DESTINATION 'SYXI250'...) to XI.
 In order to make a RFC call can I use TYPE 3 RFC destination?
 Do I need to use TYPE T (TCP/IP) RFC destination?
 If I use TYPE T then I am getting error saying "no sender agreement and no receiver".
 Since I am making a call to function module in XI system and there is no other receiver after that how do I configure a receiver for this?
 Please help me!
Thanks
Gopal

Hi -
At least for what you're trying to do, consider below:
>>>The CCMS alert is setup in the XI system. So to trigger alert I am making a RFC call (CALL FUNCTION SALERT_CREATE DESTINATION 'SYXI250'...) to XI.
So SALERT_CREATE in the XI system is actually your receiver interface in this scenario.
>>>Do I need to use TYPE T (TCP/IP) RFC destination?
Yes.
>>>Since I am making a call to function module in XI system and there is no other receiver after that how do I configure a receiver for this?
As mentioned above, XI (technically at least) is the receiver and SALERT_CREATE is the receiver interface. The sender would be your R/3 system and the sender interface would be just a stub of SALERT_CREATE. So in R/3 you could create a customer, remote-enabled RFC (Z_SALERT_CREATE) that's just a stub (no implementation of SALERT_CREATE, just parameters) and call this from the R/3 side (e.g. CALL FUNCTION Z_SALERT_CREATE DESTINATION 'SYXI250'...).
Of course, you would need to import the metadata for your custom Z_SALERT_CREATE (and SALERT_CREATE if not already) RFC as an imported object to XI. You'd need a sender agreement for R/3 sender and Z_SALERT_CREATE RFC as well.

How to trigger an xi communication from abap report?

Hello,
I would like to ask if there is a blog, howto or something about How to trigger the communication in an abap programm. The communication will be either rfc->ftp or rfc->jdbc. So how can I tell XI to call that rfc to start the communication (from r/3 as abap programm)?
thank you.

Hello,
about nr1:
When I set the DESTINATION parameter in a abap report, doesn't this mean the system where the rfc is available? Because when I do it like that my abap report would look for the rfc there and not in r/3 itself. Isn't that right?
e.g.
CALL FUNCTION 'RFC_on_r3'
DESTINATION 'XI.rfc.dest'
So you think that should work?

How to trigger a second workflow from a workflow?

Hi All,
          I want your guidance in deciding the process flow of a workflow to be developed.
          We have a scenario in our project where we have to develop a workflow for vendor creation/change
          done through a portal.Now we have designed to do through this 2 workflows.
          First workflow is triggered when the create/change is done in the portal and the entry is made in a
          z table.This is the trigger point of first workflow.
          First workflow will identify all approvals and store them in another z table with all the approval levels needed and the approval groups stored in the z table itself.
          Second flow will trigger on the entry made in this z table.It will read all approvals and send the mails to tha approvers in the respective aproval groups.
Now can you please verify this.Is it possible to trigger a second workflow from a workflow?
If yes then can you please explain the methodology to do the same?
Also if any other approach can be taken,please suggest the same.
Thanks a lot,
Saket.

First Develop a Z Business OBject (let ZVENDOR) to update the Z table when ever a Vendor is created or Changed.
Now For the first workflow do like this
From the WD application when the user clicks on the SAVE button then call the Function module SAP_WAPI_START_WORKFLOW .
Develop a method in the ZVENDOR to update the Z table.Make the method as background.
Use the method that you have created in the above point in the first workflow but prior to this make sure that you have passed all the required information to the workflow.
Once the table is updated.
For Second Workflow
Create a Change document object for the Ztable.
And trigger the workflow when ever any entry is made or changed in the z table

How to copy/send text file from FTPS to SAP ECC File Port

Hi Frdns,
I am working on one design, actually my requirement as follows
I am receiving financial information document from Banks, which is in the form of BIA2 message format, it looks like text file. This information needs to be sending to SAP ECC system.
I identified some approaches to full fill the requirement
1)Using Conversion agent/or third party tools to convert BIA2 message in to XML, then using PI I will pick up the XML message, convert it in to IDoc.
2)Without any conversion I will copy the same file (original BIA2 message) in to SAP ECC file port, in this case no conversion required, calling some program I will schedule it.
I am looking forward t implement the second approach because it saves lot of money to my client.
Now I am wondering using File adapter can i copy to SAP ECC File Port or I required ABAP proxy?
What is the best approach to copy the BIA message text file from FTPS to SAP ECC File Port.??
Regards,
Raj

Hi Raja,
>>Now I am wondering using File adapter can i copy to SAP ECC File Port or I required ABAP proxy?
Yes you can do this copy, the only restriction that can happen is the file size.. If you are sure that the fiel will be of few MB at the max then you can use the Configuration part alone and copy it to ECC folder. For doing this you need the following:
1. Sender agreement (mention the sender interface as anything XYZ)
2. Sender communication channel. Pick the file in binary mode
3. Receiver determination (keep both the sender and receiver service as same)
4. Interface Detemiantion (dont specify any mapping and keep the receiver interface name as XYZ)
5. Create receiver agreement (with same service and interface)
6. Use file adapter here
