Mapping handling in third party vs SAP PI for EDI 850

Hi Experts,
Can I know Pros and Cons for hanling mapping translations in third party vs handling mapping translations in SAP PI for EDI 850 interface.
We are already paying money to third party. I just need pros and cons.. we will choose best approch based on your valuable points 
Appreciate your help.
Regards,
Krishna.

Hi Mohan,
Pros:
SAP PI is a middleware and all Middlewares work pretty much on the same principles.
I am assuming that EDI 850 would have some sort of structure, [ to be honest I have not worked on EDI but just read about it] and SAP PI would require you to convert this structure into XML -> the only language SAP PI understands.
Now, I am sure there are lots of third party adapters available in the market for EDI. PI will give you flexibility to convert this interface into any kind of requirement be it JDBC/FILE/IDOC or anything and vice versa is also true. PI give you this enormous ability to convert to and from any format as long as it is viable.
Last but not the least, it will provide a robust system with Alerting and Monitoring.
Cons: You may have to invest on a third party adapter to read the EDI
You can read the following links for more abt EDI and SAP PI:

  • How SAP handles AFS Third Party Orders in ECC system?

    Hi All,
    There is a user exit EXIT_SAPLJ3AM_003 which exist in 4.6C version of SAP for AFS.
    This user exit is for Third Party order processes. This is called within the include LJ3AMFD1 of the main program SAPLJ3AM.
    But this User exit is missing in ECC version of SAP for AFS.
    Basically when the Dierct ship Sales Order is created, corresponding PR is created for it and using this User exit certain fields in this corresponding Purchase Requisition is filled from Sales Order but this user exit is missing in ECC system.
    Could anyone please let me know how SAP handles the Third party Orders in ECC AFS system?
    Thanks,

  • How do you add a third party sensor to LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms​?

    I recently purchased an IR Sensor from Mindsensors (DIST-Nx-Long-v3) which I need for a SLAM (Simultaneous Localization and Mapping Application) that I am developing using the LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms software.  I installed the Mindsonsors IR Sensor, and it works under NXT-G and RobotC, but am having trouble finding a way to get LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms to install the sensor.
    The Mindsensors website gives the following instructions for installing the IR Sensor:
    1.Unzip the folder mindsensors.com LVEE
    2.Open a blank vi in LVEE
    3.On the Block Diagram Go to Tools->Advanced->Edit Palette Set...
    Unfortunately, on the Block Diagram of the LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms, there is no "Advanced->Edict Palette Set" under Tools.
    As an alternative, I consulted the documentation that came with LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms.  The Schematic Editor of LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms lists several sensors, i.e. the Lego Mindstorms sensors and several Hi-Teach (HT) sensors, but there are no procedures listed in the documentation for adding other third party sensors to the Functions Palette.
    So, how does one go about adding a third party sensor to LabVIEW for Lego Mindstorms?

    Hi Ethan,
    As you can see from my Word document, I am a little light on the proper terminology.  That's because LVLM comes with inadequate documentation.
    I have already followed your recommended protocol for installing a 3rd party sensor (in fact, its the protocol recommended by Mindsensors) with the application set in the Remote Mode (.lvrbt), and it does create a sub-palette with all the Mindsensors functions on it.  But when I drag the Mindsensors icon to the Block Diagram and select "Distance Sensor," the Distance Sensor (an IR sensor) doesn't work (even though the Mindsensor's Distance Sensor does work with NXT-G, RobotC and LVLM under other circumstances (see below)).
    If I repeat the above process with the application set in the Direct Mode (.vi), I also get the sub-palette with all the Mindsensors functions on it.  When I drag the Mindsensors icon to the Block Diagram and select "Distance Sensor," the Distance Sensor does work.
    What I need for my mapping application is for the Distance Sensor to work in the Remote Mode.  I called NI tech support and the first engineer told me to simple drag the Mindsensors Functions (.vi) onto the Block Diagram.  I did this, but when I selected the Distance Sensor, the icon appeared, but the sensor did not work.  Since I have no idea what's under the hood of the vi or a function, I assumed that simply dragging the vi/function onto the desktop didn't install the vi/function properly.  I went back to the Applications Engineer, and he confessed that he did not understand the LVLM product.
    My frustration is being punted to new people, none of whom so far (other than you, of course) understand LVLM.

  • Third party GPS SW provider for the Nokia 5800

    I have been going though the posts for some time now in reagrd to GPS SW for the 5800, namley touch screen, I am not interested in the Nokia maps but a third party SW.
    I read that Garmin have a version which is supposed to work with the touch screen but could not find any support for this on the Garmin site, other manufactures like AmazeGPS claim there SW works with the 5800.
    Does any one have any additional info on this issue?

    I Use Garmin on my 5800 but find it tends to freeze up a lot. Also when navigating in landscape mode, The Application will Beep and then exits for no reason

    I don't know that is a huge number of alternatives for Fractal plugins.  You'll no doubt come across links for Fractalius and Genuine Fractals, but the first produces interesting strand like effects (after a very long wait) and the second is an image resize plugine which now belongs to On One, and is sold as Perfect Resize.  And even that has been made irrelevant by the Preserve Details upres option in CC.
    You are alos wize to be careful.  Previous trusable sites like cnet on softonic are a nightmare nowdays, and too many of the free apps you find on them come loaded with malware.  Some of it _serious_ malware DAMHIKIJKOK

  • Does anyone recommend a third party app called siri-for-iphone-4?

    I saw a third party app called siri-for-iphone-4 which is supposed to add siri to older iphone 4, but do not know if it is suitable or useable.

    Is it an app that you can download from the App Store? If it is not, it would require that you jailbreak your phone which would void your warranty. Definitely not worth it, in my opinion.l

    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    You can use any IDOC according to ur requirement.
    Example,
    If u want to create Vendor use Idoc  CREMAS04 (message type CREMAS)
    If u want to create Customer use IDOC DEBMAS (message type DEBMAS)
    See the below links:

  • Third party PO Process -Looking for better solutions

    what would be best solution for the below business process
    We have one corporate headquarters(A) which has 3 plants(Plants X,Y and Z).
    Corp.HQ (A) deals negotiation with one supplier directly and buys the materials and responsible for the payment.
    but the goods should be directly delivered to the plants ...not to Corp.HQ
    At the same time the receiving plants,intern have to pay to the corp.HQ for the same.
    I can think of 2 step process for this process
    Step 1 : Creating Third party PO between Corp.HQ and Supplier
    Step 2 : Creating a Stock transport order /Intercomp order between Corp.HQ and receiving plants
    But is there any solution with Single step or any other better solution for this process?
    Thanks in advance
    Thanks and Regards,
    Kesavan

    The first step is not ok in my opinion, since the goods will be posted for consumption, so there will be no stock to be transferred via the intercompany STO (2nd step in your process).
    In SAP it is possible to use central purchasing organisation. What if the HQ would be represented in the purchasing process as a central purch. org. and it would issue a "normal" PO to the vendor (one PO: vendor --> manufacturing plant)?
    In this case you should solve the payment process only (HQ --> vendor; plant --> HQ) - if the HQ would be set as invoicing party in the PO, the payment between HQ and plant would be solved. In the vendor's SO the HQ should be set as payer/invoicing address, the HQ would receive the invoice and eneter it w/o any PO (but enter the real PO number as reference).
    You would need some development to integrate the two incoming invoices not to have discrepancy.
    Just an idea...

  • Verizon's third party application service provider for internationale texts

    Hi, I read here that Verizon uses a third party service provider to route international text messages. On that link they say it's a company called Inphomatch, but I found out that Inphomatch merged to another company called Sybase, and on Sybase's website they say Verizon and they are partners. Shoud I think that Sybase is the one that handles international text messages for Verizon now?

    Inphomatch handles International Text Messaging for Verizon.

  • Prevent Third Party / Sales order stock for blocked vendors

    Hi Experts.
    We have scenarios for Third party processing and Sales order stock. We have a scenario of a fixed vendor for a material. The purchasing function frequently does block vendors for purchasing.
    However, we find that this does not prevent creation of a third party / sales order stock item in the sales order and a PR is generated. It is only found during the PR --> PO conversion that the vendor is blocked at which time someone has to manually reject the line items.
    Is there a way to prevent the system from being able to generate a PR for a blocked vendor ? I guess one possibility is to enhance the requirement routine for PR creation. Is there any other approach ?
    Appreciate your help
    Regards
    Rohit Zalani

    Hi
    In MK05, block vendor for all Purchasing org and Select Block Function = 03     Block quot. req., order, goods receipt
    If you do this setting then user will get error message that "Vendor is blocked" and "Purchase requisition could not be generated for component".
