Import file to SAP system switch to SAP XI scenario

Hi,
we have scenario: download data from 3rd party system to the file and later on import this file to the SAP EPR system.
What possiblity we have when we want to use SAP XI? Only create new RFC functions to be able upload files? Or it is possible to re-use currect program for upload file?
And reverse scenario? We download data to file from SAP ERP and later on import to 3rd party system. It is possible to re-use program used for download data?
Thanks a lot for ideas.
Regards,
Roman

Hi,
Downloading data from the third party system to File system will be out of XI Job.that ur other team has to take care.
Coming to Xi
From the file system to SAP R/3 we can do using XI
File---XI-SAP R/3( Use IDOC/ RFC/ PRoxy)
In the other way also
SAP R/3( IDOC / RFC/ Proxy)--XI--File
Check this to choose the right adapter when dealing with the SAP R/3 Application

Settings for sending mail
Configuring SAP 4.6x Internet mail Gateway
SAP can be configured to send and receive emails from different sources.This section explains how to integrate SAPOffice with an external emailsystem. Your Internet email must be configured and running prior to this.Email from SAP is forwarded to the users external email system..
You can configure inbound and outbound forwarding. Outbound flow forwardsa SAP message (eg: update termination) via UNIX sendmail to the intended recepient. Inbound accepts a message from sendmail and places it in the users SAPOffice inbox. Many companies prefer to configure outbound only.
Configuring outbound forwarding
SAP configuration
1. Create your RFC destination for outbound email using transaction SM59
RFC Destination : SAP_INTERNET_GATEWAY
Connection Type : T
Description : SAP internet mail gateway
Click on 'Explicit Host' if you wanton demand gateway dameon invocation.
Program : /sapmnt/SID/exe/mlunxsnd
Target Host : Enter hostname that runs your central instance.
Click 'Test Connection' and you should seea successfull message.
2. Shared Office Settings transaction SO16-> Send -> Settings or
directly via transaction SCOT- SAPconnect Administation
Nodes - Create
Node : IMAIL
Description : SAP internet mail gateway
RFC Destination : SAP_INTERNET_GATEWAY
Tick : Internet
Address Area : *
Tick : All formats

Testing whether your configuration is successful
1. Logon to SAP
2. Execute transaction SO01
3. Write a message and send it to <your_internet_email_address>
4. If you don't see the mail in your internet mailbox, go back and review steps 1-12
Schedule the SAP Internet Mail Gateway Jobs to start every 5 minutes
1. Create
2. Position your cursor at INT
3. Click Schedule and supply the date and time
4. Click Schedule periodically and tick Minutes and type in 5
5. Click Create and you are done
6. Click Show Scheduling to check
Problems that you might encounter :-
If you have set up a node in SCOT and it tests out well but recieve the reply.
"Cannot process message in node, parameterscannot be converted".
Make sure the RFC connection is working, and that SapConnect has been installed on the Unix Server or the Microsoft Exchange Server. Originally, I had the same error, and found that nothing had been installed on Unixor Exchange, to support SapConnect.
In SCOT (View -> System Status), your mail remains at the Intransit column.
Check you sendmail.cf files (e.g.Sun Solaris /etc/mail/sendmail.cf). Try using the sendmail command to send a test file at the Unix level. You must be able to send mail at theUnix level before you can send mail at the SAP level.

Need of XI to send an XML from one SAP system to another SAP system

Dear colleagues,
I work in the SRM solution.
In SRM there is a Purchaser and Supplier scenario called Supplier Self Services.
The Purchaser creates a Purchase order and sends it to the supplier in form of an XML file.
The purchaser system and supplier system are the same SAP system but different clients.
Example: Purchaser client is 300 and Supplier client is 330 and both of them are on the same system.
I have a very basic question.
Currently we have the XI system which acts as an interface to send the Purchaser PO XML to the Supplier as XML.
a)My question is in case the XML structure is identical across both the clients, then what is the need of XI system?
b) Is it not possible to send XML from one client to another without an XI system? there si no need of any message mapping required since I am expecting the same XML structure in both clients.
Please clarify the need of XI system in the following scenario. Is it not possible without XI?
Many thanks.
Best regards,
Srivatsa

Hi Srivatsa,
YOu can send the XML message from one sap system to another sap system even without an XI system in between.
But the use of SAP XI (Or any other middleware) is recommended because, it gives you the following advantages.
1) Better monitoring and alerting mechanism. XI provides you robust set of tools that let you monitor the status of the messages that are exchanged.
2) Direct communication between systems is referred to as Point to Point communication, which has its own disadvantages as against Hub and SPoke model (Message exchange using XI).
3) Message delivery is guaranteed if you have XI in between.
If the target system is down, the sender sap system will not try multiple times to post the message.
But if you use XI, it can be configured to send the message multiple times, till it succeeds.

Scenario for interface between a non sap system and a SAP erp

Hello,
I need some help in order to elaborate a interface between a SAP ERP and a non-sap system with the help of a XI system.
   - At first regarding the interface from the non sap system and a SAP ERP :
       the non sap system sends a flat file to the XI system. The flat file contains a row with header data and rows with item data. We were thinking when the file arrives to the XI system, to save the data in a header database and in a items database in XI. is it possible ?
And then to have like a job that reads the database and creates idoc and sends them to the SAP erp and updates the xi header and items database with a flag that means that the records have been sent to the SAP erp.
   -   Regarding the interface SAP erp to non SAP system:
       the SAP erp sends idoc to XI. Then the idocs are transformed into flat file.
Is this scenario possible ?
Do we need any adaptator between the non sap system and the XI ?
Thank you for your help
Christophe

Hi Bontron,
Idoc doesnot support synchronous call. So you can use either proxy or function module and inturn call the idoc from them and send response back to xi. You need to have two scenarios for your design.
Scenario1:   Source File (file adapter) -- xi -- Dump into database tables (Jdbc Adapter)
Scenrio2: Pickup form Database tables (Jdbc Adapter) -- xi -- RFC Adapter ---> This is synchronous call.
Regarding the interface SAP erp to non SAP system
You can send idoc to xi and from there use File adapter to send to the receiving system.
These blogs may help you to some extent:

51 error msg we are getting material does not exists.but the material is available in the receiving plant.

Hi,
you can create the same...
but normal practice what we do is create swc for each system so that it is easy to maintain and easy to extend in the future..
or else follow some conventions if you are just starting the things..

Move IDOC Configuration from one sap system to other sap system

Hi All,
I have a scenario where in we need to move the SAP Configuration including Port,partner funtions details etc to other Sap system .As per my knowledge we have some SAP Standard tables which stores all the SAP Config data .So my thought is that if we move those table entries from sorce sap system to target sap system the task will be completed however i dont know which table entries i need to move.Kindly suggest.
Venu

Many of these IDoc settings are not asking for transport requests, since they are considered master data (table class A). They are to be done directly in each system, because the are often linked to information that is or might be specific, like master data, logical system names, path names, etc...
Please also search for previous discussions, you are probably not the first one encountering this issue.

How to copy a structure from one SAP system to other SAP system in ABAP

Hi All,
We have a requriement where need to copy an strcture of 250 feilds from on SAP system to other SAP system , do any one know how to do it .
Regards
Channu

Channappa,
It is really not hard to manually create the structure. Ctrl-Y copy from the source system screen and paste in the target system screen. You'll have to do this one page at a time. So, you will have to repeat it 9 times (or 18 times if you have to copy/paste component list and type separately).
I can assure you that you can finish the task in less than 30 minutes.

How to import a transport from one SAP system to another SAP System?

We have a requirement where the same security report needs to be made avialble across the whole SAP landscape - comprising of ECC6, PI7, BW, HR , SRM, CRM etc.
To reduce the time and effort, is it possible to create the report in ECC6 attach it to a transport request and import it into SRM, CRM etc?
If so, what is the procedure?
Thanks,
Bhaskar

Hi
Yes it is possible. Attach the report to the request and release the request. It will create cofile and datafile for the request in folder /usr/sap/trans/data and /usr/sap/trans/cofiles.
Copy these two files and paste them into the target system in the respective folders i.e the above mentioned directory structure.
The data file should look like Rxxxxxx.SID and cofile should look like Kxxxxxx.SID where xxxxxx is your request number.
Once these are copied in the target system, logon to target system goto STMS, goto the import queue of the system, then extras --> Other requests --> Add, enter the request number as in original system <SID>Kxxxxxx, and enter.
Then you should be able to import it.
Hope this clarifies.

Option "SAP system" missing in SAP installer Win 2003 (32 bit)

Hi
We have SAP NW 7.0 SR3 & SAP ERP 6.0 SR3
When we are trying to install SAP ERP/ NW using master installer on Win 2003 32 bit (any database) the installation option "SAP Systems" is missing.
The same is available in Win 64 bit installation.
We have copied product.catalog file from 64 bit setup to 32 bit setup and started sapinst.exe again.
It worked fine.
ECC has been installed and we are able to thru SAP GUI (thick client).
Is it OK to do so?
Was this intentional or a bug in setup?
Thanks in advance !
Ruhi/ Ritesh

Hi Ruhi,
New installation of ECC6 is for 64 bit only.You can not have 32bit installation any more.
That can be a reason.

Integrate or connect SAP system to non-SAP system

Hi All,
We need to connect SAP system or integrate inspHire rental software to SAP. Do you know the process or initial summary on how to integrate this one?
As of now, the only way that we know to integrate SAP to non-SAP for posting is thru LSMW and batch input.
your suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
LSMW is just tools for integration and you can use BDC Call Transaction, BDC session or BAPI, or Function to update something ins SAP.
1/Easier is if your non-SAP system is able to create file and ftp to SAP folder.
2/You will have background job running program that will every 5minutes or hour or daily(it is up to you how fast dat has to be bring to SAP) check if file was create in SAP folder.
3/Program will move file to folder in process
4/Program will process file, usinf function, or call transaction to update SAP on the base of file
5/Program will move file to process folder
If you need more info give me detail about what you would like to update in SAP and I could send you code.

SAP system IDOC - XI - SAP system IDOC

Hi,
I have created several scenarios for sending IDOCs between different SAP systems, but I have a problem with just one SAP system that is a copy of our production system when is acting as a source.
When sending the IDOC from source system, I can see the IDOC in SM58, with the following error message;
"client xxx is not available in this system" where the client is actually the client of the receiving system.
I have successfully sent IDOCs from other SAP systems to the same target SAP system so there is nothing wrong with the target system.
Anyone experienced the same? Any ideas?
best regards
Torstein

Hi,
I am facing the same issue too. My target system is also release 700 and I have done all my SALE config, we21 settings. But still the error repeats as " Client XXX is not available in the system". How did you fix this issue?

Extract Tables/views into ECC 5.0 SAP system from Non-SAP system

Hi,
I am looking for some inputs on how to set up the following scenario of extracting data stored in tables/views in a non-sap external system into my SAP ECC 5.0 SAP database.
Currently we are using a middleware between SAP and the external system to fetch data. I would like to get rid of the middleware and set up a scenario to call this non-sap external system and pull data stored in views into our SAP system directly. Is that possible in SAP version 5.0? If yes let me know the steps to be performed... do I need to set up XI ?

maybe you can access sap data using some connector such as java or .net connector.
