Idoc to Different Trading partners using AS2 Adapter

Hello experts,
I have a requirement where we have to send an Idoc to different trading partners using van.
On the receiver side AS2 adapters will be used.There are many trading partners here.Can someone guide me through? ..
The entire scenario will be done in SAP PO 7.4
Breaking the entire scenario in the following parts---
1)IDoc on sender side--What will be partner profile type? Will it LS or any other (BP, GP or KU??)
2)AS2 configuration details---AS2 adapter is available in the dropdown of adapter list.What are the config details for AS2?
3)Trading partner mechanism-How this can be achieved?..what this essentially achieves ? any step by step guide available? Does it take care of sending the Idoc only to VAN or sending Idoc to different trading partners directly bypassing VAN?
4)Is using NWDS suggestible?--Is it convenient?
Any help/step by step blog will be of great help.
If I miss anything in the entire scenario, please let me know
Thanks
Ayan Chaudhuri

Hi Ajay,
1)IDoc on sender side--What will be partner profile type? Will it LS or any other (BP, GP or KU??)
-->>The partner type is depend on your scenario. AS2 adapter is used for B2B communication and usually to vendor and customers.
This purchase Order should go to the particular vendor as a sales order. Then we use partner type as LI -- Vendor.
Similarly when we sell some materials to our customers, we create the Sales order to our customer. Then we use Partner type as KU - Customer
Partner Type GP---Business Partner
Partner Type KU---Customer
Partner Type LI---Vendor
Partner Type LS---Logical system
Partner Type US--User
2)AS2 configuration details---AS2 adapter is available in the dropdown of adapter list.What are the config details for AS2?
-->> to configure as2 connection you need following details from trading partner
AS2 ID
server address with URL extension
TP certificate
MDN address and type (Sync, asyn and signed or not signed)
Message communication encryption algorithm
Compression is required or not and if req. which algorithm to use
3)Trading partner mechanism-How this can be achieved?..what this essentially achieves ? any step by step guide available? Does it take care of sending the Idoc only to VAN or sending Idoc to different trading partners directly bypassing VAN?
-->> If you are communicating through VAN then you need to send the message to VAN and VAN will route the message to respective TP.
4)Is using NWDS suggestible?--Is it convenient?
-->> NWDS is another option to create scenario, it is depend on developer which one he want to use.

How to deal Inhouse files using Seeburger AS2 adapter...!!!

Hi all,
Has anyone managed to configure the Seeburger AS2 adapter for XI successfully to process multiple inbound message types.
We have an issue here with inbound messages being received by the AS2 adapter. We currently have it configured for inbound deliveries(Which deals with EDI files) which is working fine. The issue is that we would now like to send other messages as well. It seems the AS2 adapter only looks at the sender/receiver party combination to determine the correct sender agreement, but does not look at the message type which is a limitation. I have heard mention of a splitter module which can be used to distinguish between different messages and pass them to the correct sender agreement for processing, information on this is thin on the ground to non existent.
I have few custom Inhouse files where i need to recieve through AS2 adapter.
I need to differentiate the messages hitting to my communication channel.
ex:
1st message will be having
HDR PICKS
2nd message will be having
HDR PURCH
so based on the second field which has "PICKS" or "PURCH" , i need to pass the message to run the corresponding map.
How i need to configure to acheive these kind of custom Inhouse files through AS2 adapter??
Do i need to use splitter for these as well?? If yes how i need to use?
Is there any setting we can make at Sender AS2 adapter to differentiate each message??
Waiting for the answers.
Kindly reply if anyone knows.
Thanks&Regards

Hi,
i have setup a scenario with edifact (different message types) using as2.
first i had to create a mapping using bic.
edifact_xxxx
in: edifact_service
out: functional acknowledgement.
in the mapping code i adjusted the called mapping, standard it will use see* changed it to e2x* (custom mapping)
in your case using flatfiles maybe you should take a look at the VDA structure, these files are also defined under inhouse.
when you define a input file adapter are you getting a classifier message?
like
<classifier><type>Edifact</type><classifierMappingID>XXXX</classifierMappingID><encoding>US-ASCII</encoding><additionalIdentifier></additionalIdentifier></classifier>

IDoc flat file over AS2 adapter to IDoc adapter

Hi,
The scenario is IDoc flat file(.txt) over AS2 adapter to IDoc adapter. Could anyone help on how to convert the IDoc flat file to xml in AS2 adapter to execute the mapping further? we are using PI 7.0.
Thanks in advance!
-zameer

Hi,
Since you are on Pi 7.0, you would not be able to use the modules for this in PI 7.1.
You would need to refer this document for converting from Idoc flat to XML
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/46759682-0401-0010-1791-bd1972bc0b8a?quicklink=index&overridelayout=true
In your sender AS2 adapter, you can pass the file as is to an abap mapping which will do the conversion to Idoc xml. the output of the abap mapping goes to your message mapping then for conversion.
Another option would be to use a custom adapter module in the sender AS2 adapter to call the Aabap mapping to do the conversion into Idoc xml.
The custom adapter module would do a JCO/RFC call which will do the conversion before passing the data back to the adpter module.

Seeburger inbound/outbound mapping options with AS2 adapter

Hi Gurus,
This is the first time that i am handling Seeburger adapters(AS2 adapter).
We have the following issue.
We are using AS2 adapter from Seeburger for communicating with Partners (inbound/outbound).
For some scenarios, the trading partners either sends us a flat/csv file or expects a flat/csv file from PI.
And for these scenarios, we are using the AS2 adapter (for sender or receiver channel configuration) .
Now, the main issue is that we need to convert the flat file to PI-XML format when we receive a flat file from a trading partner or we need to convert from PI-XML format to flat file format when we are sending file to a trading partner.
Since the AS2 adapter does not have a File Content Conversion (Like we have in the File/FTP adapter) mechanism, we need to rely on MessageTransformBean (under AF Modules) to do the conversion for us. However, since this module cannot handle deep structures (nested structures) what other alternatives can we look out for ?
I know we can also go for BIC Mapper which is shipped from Seeburger for EDI to XML and XML to EDI conversions. However in this project, we just need XML to flat file/CSV or Flat File/CSV to XML conversions and hence we want to abstain from buying a license for BIC mapper.
Please let me know what other options can we try in this case.
Does Seeburger has anything specific to do the conversions from XML to flat file or flat file to XML (and not the whole BIC mapper tool).
Regards, Gaurav.

Does Seeburger has anything specific to do the conversions from XML to flat file or flat file to XML (and not the whole BIC mapper tool).
No. Seeburger doesn't provide any such tool/option.
Please let me know what other options can we try in this case.
As per the detail you have provided, you don't have any standard option left. You have to either develop your own adapter module or you can pass the payload directly to mapping and then perform Java mapping on it. You have option of using Conversion Agent but there must be some license cost for it as well.

EDI Integration---Using Seeburger Adapter

Hi All,
I have a below requirement.
EDI----->XI--
>SAP and vice versa.
I am new to EDI integration,i would like to know the procedure steps to do the above scenario.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
How you want to communicate with the EDI system... If it is using AS2 adapter, then you need to purchase it from seeburger and configure it in the sender side and receiver side it'll be Idoc adapter. And in the ESR you need to import the xsd of EDI document under external definitions and map it to the idoc.Please refer the below links it may help you.

Seeburger AS2 Adapter: Receiving multiple messages

Hi guys,
I'm having some trouble using AS2 Adapter for receiving multiple messages. The problem is really similar to Peter's problem.
Seebuger AS2 adapter for XI as sender for multiple messages
I have it configured for one scenario and it's working fine. The problem is when I'm trying to receive other messages for the same Party but different services. Meaning, I've one Party(example BMW) and several services (BMW_DE, BMW_USA, etc). I'm able to receive messages from service BMW_DE but when configuring BMW_USA I'm getting HTTP 403 Forbidden.
This error may have different reasons:
a) You or your partner has entered an incorrect AS2 ID for one of the involved parties.
b) A valid sender agreement is missing.
c) There are more then one AS2 sender agreements with the same sender AND receiver party.
d) The corresponding inbound channel is set to inactive.
And the problem is that there are two sender agreements. Although the services are different, XI is not able to find the correct sender agreement to be used. After deleting the second second agreement, I'm able to send the respective message....
Can anyone give me a hint on how to solve this problem?

Hi,
this is done by different AS2 subjects. The sender agreement is selected based on this. So create separate AS2 receiver adapters for every message you need and put there different message subjects.
So if you'll have 3 AS2 receiver channels with subjects:
MessageType1_DE
MessageType1_US
the AS2 adapter will work like following:
first it tries to find an exact message subject, if it is found, message is "assigned" to this sender agreement. If no exact message matches the subject, then wildcards are used. (this mechanism is described in the Seeburger AS2 guide).
If you are getting 403 HTTP code, there may be also problem with authentication certificates.
Another problem may be, you don't have configured AS2 receiver channel for current subject.
Does this help you? Or you meant it another way?
Peter

MDN Issue in AS2 adapter.. Seeburger experts., Need help

Hi All,
Iam doing a scenario EDI-->Idoc for purchase order(ORDERS) by using AS2 adapter.
We are expected to send the technical acknowledgment once we receive the Orders from sender.
I think When we use the MDN (Message disposition notification), i will be getting the system generated acknowledge like below.
 <TransmissionReport>
<from>SAP</from>
<to>BIS</to>
<transmissionMsgID>43cc21a0-f752-11d8-c8ca-00c09f19e074</transmissionMsgID>
<sentAt>2004-08-26T132252+0200</sentAt>
<info/><adapterName>AS2</adapterName>
</TransmissionReport>
But my requirement is to send the ackowledgement with few more details like POnumber along with the standard details like below.
<TransmissionReport>
<from>SAP</from>
<to>BIS</to>
<transmissionMsgID>43cc21a0-f752-11d8-c8ca-00c09f19e074</transmissionMsgID>
<POnumber>6529833</POnumber>
<sentAt>2004-08-26T132252+0200</sentAt>
<info/><adapterName>AS2</adapterName>
</TransmissionReport>
1. Is there any option where i can modify the MDN acknowledgement file by adding few more fields??
2. If not please suggest me how i can proceed with this.
Note: We should not use by creating one more msgtype in SAP and send back the acknowledgement like Orders response(ORDRSP). They just want the file from XI itself.(But not from SAP Side).
Regards
Seema.

Hi Reddy,
If ur problem is solved can u plz help me?
I have one question related to the MDN .
My scenario is like AS2 adapter is on the receiver side means its converting XML to EDI format. When the payload along with MDN is sent from the XI side EDI partner , the EDI partner sends back the MDN acknowledgment back to XI.
The problem is that XI is not able to accept the MDN acknowledgment.
Could you please suggest what all steps need to be configured to receive that MDN acknowledgment on XI side.
e.g 1)AS2 Communication channel with message protocol REPORTS
2)Sender agreement for accepting the acknowledgment
3) What type of message interface is to be used which is required in the configuration step for sender agreements(MDN specific format??)
4) Any other configuaration required ??
Please reply as soon as possible.
With regards,
Simran

AS2 Adapter.. How i can receive the MDN messages?

Hi All,
Doing IDOC to EDI scenario.
Iam using AS2 adapter to send the messages to partner system and i need to receive the MDN from partner system.
1. what are configuration settings i need to provide in AS2 receiver adapter?
2. I need to put option as Refer MDN to XI system..?
3. Is it necessary to create one more Sender channel and sender agreement to recevie the MDN?
4. Why we have the option as Asynchronous MDN settings in AS2 sender adapter ?.
Kindly let me know if anyone knows the answers.
Thanks & Regards
Seema.

Thanks Anoop for the answer.
So if i want to do the scenario for Idoc to EDI.
then the steps will be..
1.
- AS2 rcv adapter -- to send the message to partner.
- all remaining steps like sx agreement,rx agreement,interface deter,Rx determination to send the actual msg.
2.
- Again one AS2 sender channel to receive the MDN from partner for the same scenario
- one sender agreement for MDN.
TO receive the MDN.. no need of rx agreement,interface determination,rx agrrement??
If we want to see the MDN.. how we can see it?
3.I have a scenario where, once i receive my MDN message and with the help of Data in MDN message , i need to update my custom table in SAP by inbound processing.Is it possible??
Please help me.

Seema.

AS2 Adapter

Hi Experts,
I have got a special requirement, can you please suggest is this requirement is possible or not in SAP PI using seeburger AS2 adapter. We have a got probelm in Our GIS System in setting up AS2 profiles for one of our customer. So we thought of using Seeburger AS2 adapter for this requirement.
By using the Seeburger AS2 adapter I have to receive and Post EDI messages. I have to decrypt the Inbound message and need to stage on the PI Server, No need of message mapping and posting to receiver system. We have a process in GIS system to pick the file from PI Server and do the mapping and post the output data to ORD System.
For the outbound transactions like 855 and 856, GIS will generates the EDI 855 and 856 files on PI Server. Seeburger AS2 adapter need to encrypt this messages and send to partner's AS2 server.
Is the above requirement is feasilble in SAP PI using AS2 adapter?
Any other ideas on this is greatly appreciated
Thanks,
Kishore

I have to decrypt the Inbound message and need to stage on the PI Server, No need of message mapping and posting to receiver system.
For inbound cases, you may use PI as the receiver system and use NFS protocol of File adapter to put the file on PI server. If you use decryption certificate at sender, you may perform the decryption very well.
Seeburger AS2 adapter need to encrypt this messages and send to partner's AS2 server.
This can again be done by the encryption certificate shared with the third party using receiver AS2 adapter.
Is the above requirement is feasilble in SAP PI using AS2 adapter?
Yes.

CallSapAdapter 0
Module configuration:
bic= destSourceMsg = MainDocument
bic= destTargetMsg = MainDocument
bic= mappingName= See_E2X_EDIFACT_ORDERS_UN_D93A which does the conversion of EDI-XML.
Receiver AS2 adapter configuration:
When the adapter is used in a receiver channel, it obtains a message from the Integration Engine and sends it to a business partner. In this case, the following steps are required:
1. Define the channel as a Receiver channel on the Parameters tab
2. The last step ensures the module sequence is complete:
Make sure the module ModuleProcessorExitBean does exist in the module sequence:
Module Name=localejbs/ModuleProcessorExitBean
Type=L
Module Key=Exit
with the following module parameter:
Module Key=Exit
Parameter Name=JNDIName

CallSapAdapter 0
Module configuration:
bic= destSourceMsg = MainDocument
bic= destTargetMsg = MainDocument
bic= mappingName= See_X2E_EDIFACT_ORDERS_UN_D93A
ONly the mapping program name changes from E2X to X2E. IN ur case it will be See_X2E_ORDERS_UN_D96A

Seeburger AS2 adapter issue

Hi experts
We have migrated from XI 3.0 to PI 7.1.
The corresponding AS2 seeburger is also upgraded to a compatible version.
But after that it seems the mapping is not working. I am getting the foollowing error while using AS2 adapter at receiver side.
Runtime exception during processing target field mapping /LIST/S_ISA/D_I05_2. The message is: Exception:[java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: com/seeburger/functions/permstore/VariableFactory] in class
A function in map uses seeburger classes(VariableFactory)
Thanks and Regards

As Anoop said check for property store values.
http://seeburger.com/xi/SeeFunctions provider.servlet.server ; http://localhost/50100 . check for this entry from property store from see front end.
make sure all other mapping variables and addressbook values imported properly.
