Receiving files from and sending files to a third party

Hi
I have the following scenario.
A third party needs to send me an xml file, which I need to load into the database.
Once the file has been processed, I need to send a success/failure indicator, as well as an error file if necessary, to the third party.
What is the best way of doing this?
Thanks in advance.

Well, you have two basic options: build or buy
Advantage of building your own solution is that you have complete control over it, you know
exactly what you're getting, you can size it to fit your needs, and it can be much less
expensive than some of the commercial solutions out there (like the ones that start at 500K!)
Disadvantage of building your own is that it may take more time than you have to wait and you
may have some ongoing maintenance (depending on nature of your transactions with your customer)
Advantage of buying an existing commercial solution is that you get a solution right away, it is
often more robust and feature packed than a home-grown solution, and you offload the maintenance burden to the vendor.
Disadvantage of buying is that it can be much more expensive than your budget allows, you could
be paying for more features than you actually need, you've got to go through the whole vendor
selection process, and you've got the risk of having that choice vendor you selected go out of business.
When I mention buying a commercial solution, I'm thinking about a new breed of servers that are being described as "Integration Servers". See also the article: http://www.networkcomputing.com/1302/1302f5.html
There's a bunch of them out there in all sorts of price ranges from $1,000 to $500,000+

  • Not receiving emails from specific sender

    I have tried many times to receive emails from one sender, both automated and support ones, but none appear in my inbox. Is there any way that this sender can have been blocked without me doing anything?
    (ps: I already checked "rules" under mail preferences, and there is none)
    Message was edited by: victor jahr

    I have junk folder disabled, and I even created a rule now that is supposed to redirect any mails from the sender to my inbox, but still no luck
    By the way, the sender I'm not receiving emails from is called Jagex, a games company.

  • If I am connected to Wifi and send an iMessage to a party that is not connected to the Internet then he doesn't receive the message. How do I force my iPhone to send an SMS instead?

    If I am connected to Wifi and send an iMessage to a party that is not connected to the Internet then he doesn't receive the message. How do I force my iPhone to send an SMS instead?

    It is an interesting option but I am not sure how it works. I disconnected the other party Wifi and 3G on the iPhone, iPad and computer. I sent the iMessage 15 minutes ago and it doesn't give the small foot print "delivered" but equally said I didn't get the RED exclamation mark on the right hand side of the message in BLUE. So we know that the message was sent but not delivered. I don't seem to have the option of sending by SMS when I tap on the BLUE message and hold.

  • File as an attachment from ECC to PI then to third party

    Hi Experts,
    We are having resume parsing functionality in SAP e-Recruitment. The users are uploading their resumes on SAP Enterprise Portal. We want to transfer resume files in .pdf or .doc format from ECC to Parser server (third party) through PI. This file will be sent as an attachment to the receiver Webservice or HTTP User link.
    So what configurations should be done in ECC and PI both? What adapters should be used at sender and receiver both ends. Kindly help.
    Regards,
    Nikhil Save

    Hi Nikhil,
    First of all you need to decide how you would be sending the File from ECC to PI.
    You can send it via
    SFTP/FTP(basically using File Adapter) or
    you can use a Proxy and send the File as Attachment
    You can go with Option 1 if you have no other data that needs to be transmitted along with the file. Please read the following:
    Sending Text file without mapping using SOAP
    File(PDF as attachment)-->XI-->WebService(SOAP with attachment)
    For the Option 2 you can read the following Options:
    attachments via ABAP Proxy
    Does Proxy is capable of sending Attachments in .CSV files ZIP format?
    Proxy with Attachments.
    Please let me know if you need any other help.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Mac Mail not receiving mail from certain sender

    I'm having trouble receiving mail from a certain sender. I verified that they have my correct email address and I don't think it's getting filtered as junk because my junk mail folder is empty. Is there anything else that could be causing this? Any help would be appreciated.

  • Not receiving email from one sender

    I suddenly stopped being able to receive emails from a particular company. Never a problem before with them. They get no kickback messages saying mail is undeliverable. My provider doesn't know why. Nothing in my Junk folder. Is there any way I somehow blocked this company? I don't get emails from anyone who sends from there company's email system. They get mine, usually; they can't even reply to ones I send. Any thoughts?

    Hi, thanks Linc. Not exactly sure what you mean by quit your mail client. But, I did log on to my webmail service as you suggested, through the Cox website, and the email I know the company sent me yesterday was not there. So, I guess it's some sort of block at some point during transmission. Is there any way I can access or control whose emails I receive? I know I can designate Junk to prevent receiving future emails, just wondering if there's a way I can unblock something that may have inadvertently gotten blocked? Very frustrating. Thanks.

  • HT5622 i have mcbkprowith 10.8.5and trying to load quickbooks but can't get disc to load thru launchpad .is there another app file to load third party software

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

  • Sidebar missing from iCal in Lion - seeking a third party product to restore lost functionality

    Apple has removed the sidebar, the always-on list of calendars that required no click.
    The shallow popover that appears only when clicked — obscuring part of the calendar before disappearing — is to me (and some others) an unacceptable substitute for working with multiple calendars, especially where calendars are grouped across multiple servers.
    I'm aware of third party alternatives to iCal. (Most full-featured calendar interfaces do have an always-on full-height list of calendars. Probably the best known alternative to iCal is BusyCal.)
    This topic does not seek alternatives; I do wish to continue using iCal, albeit in a way that is less frustrating than what Apple forces upon users of 10.7.
    This topic seeks:
    a third party product that will restore lost functionality to iCal.
    To any developer who reads this topic: please, I beg you, on my knees, submit your iCal sidebar app — or whatever you wish to call it — to the App Store as soon as you can. I'll gladly pay, and more than gladly help to test any pre-Store development version.
    Other readers please note: whilst I'm extraordinarily frustrated by Apple's design decision, this is not an invitation to rant. Let's gain something constructive from this discussion.
    If you wish Apple to restore the sidebar to iCal, as an option, then please:
    submit iCal feedback to Apple, with your use case; explain why for you personally the limited disappearing popover is a poor substitute; explain how the sidebar will improve both (a) your productivity and (b) your appreciation of Apple's software.
    Side note: no category includes iCal, so I file this opening post under Using Mac OS X v10.7 Lion.
    Thank you

    the new way
    Many things in the new iCal are beautifully designed. I am certain that the new iCal will be enjoyed by people who use the new multi-session screen sharing for Mac OS on iOS (that should be a separate topic).
    iCal's aqua popover default may be perfect for people who have only a handful of calendars.
    Critically
    The new design fails completely to offer an always-on full-height list of calendars — invaluable when working with more than a handful of things.
    The screenshot below, taken whilst evaluating BusyCal, shows a subset of my list of calendars (more than the average user, that's why an always-on list is so valuable). In shot: three accounts on a CalDAV server. I have other, lesser used accounts on other CalDAV servers. Also some use of Exchange servers. My own case is extreme but there's a guiding principle for a variety of use cases:
    some users need to see the list of calendars all the time.
    What's exmplified below has become impossible in iCal 5.0 (1535) in Mac OS X 10.7 (Build 11A511).
    I plead with Apple, or a third party developer, to restore the sidebar list of calendars to iCal.
    Apple's limitation is acceptable when the user has only two calendars —
    — but for some other classes of user, completely inappropriate.
    The percentage of users troubled by the loss of functionality may be less than the percentage enjoying the popover, but that in itself does not reduce the trouble, the frustration.
    The sidebar was present in 10.4, removed in 10.5. Many users of 10.5 complained.
    The sidebar reappeared in 10.6. Removal in 10.7 is almost completely dumbfounding.
    I would like to say, "give it time — the more you use it, the more it will be appreciated" but for me this is not true. For some weeks I tried to work with this build of iCal and the more I used it, the greater the frustration. I grew to avoid iCal.
    In most ways the feature set of iCal is unequalled. Support for many standards is excellent. The removal of the sidebar is a blight on this brilliance.
    I plead with Apple or a third party developer to fix this at the earliest opportunity. I want Apple iCal — but user-friendly, not crippled.

  • Enterprise Manager Grid Control can send SNMP Traps to third-party?

    GC 11.1
    It looks like a simple config, but I've got into a confusion about it.
    I'm trying to figure out the configuration to send SNMP traps to a third party server.
    My scenario is:
    Node A (managed, monitored) ---- GC box------ SNMP box (final destination).
    My understanding is that the traps (notification methods) configured on GC box are generated by the Agent on Node A, then received by the GC and distributed as e-mails.
    What is the config to set the traps from A to reach SNMP box?
    There is the help page from the GC page (confused about interpretation):
    "Add SNMP Trap pageThe Add SNMP Trap page enables you to provide the name of the host (machine) on which the SNMP Master Agent is running and other details so that SNMP traps can be sent through Notification Rules.
    An example is shown below.
    Name HP OpenView Console
    Description Notification method to send trap to HP openview console
    SNMP Trap Host Name litleguy.us.oracle.com
    SNMP Host Port 162
    SNMP Community public
    This SNMP host will receive your SNMP traps.
    Note: A Test Trap button exists for you to test your setup."
    Any suggestions are highly appreciated.
    Thx,

    Please reply with the specific questions around this.
    11.1
    EM can send SNMP traps to specific designated receivers. You create an advanced notification method (of type SNMP Trap) with the appropriate details about the receiver.
    (See Setup->Notification Methods)
    In the notification rules UI, you specify the alerts you are interested in forwarding and select the SNMP trap advanced notification method you created earlier.
    The SNMP receiver should be provided the correct MIB that defines the SNMP trap. There were some bugs with the MIB definition in one of the releases (don't recall which one off hand), so if the traps you are receiving don't match what the receiver expects - please let us know and we can point to the right one.

  • Forecast and consumption in APO for Third-party order processing

    Has anyone tried to forecast in DP for the standard 3rd party order processing process in R3? The business wants to enter a forecast in DP, Release it to SNP and do planning as though it is a normal process. They also want the sales order entered in R3 to be passed to APO and consume the forecast. But, these sales orders with schedule line category CS don't transfer requirements and hence don't get passed to APO.
    Has anyone tried any other workaround/process for this 3rd party drop ships? The standard 3rd party order process still needs to be used in R3 since it creates the Req when the sales order is entered and there is no GR on the PO nor any delivery created for the shipment to the customer. The Vendor ships the product directly to the customer and send an invoice to us. We then invoice the customer.
    Any help is appreciated.

    None of the gurus have answered to this thread.
    So let me share my experience.
    The answer to your question would be NO- Unless someone has really a workaround which I suspect.
    We did speak with SAP on the same requirement as yours and SAP came back saying NO- There is no standard SAP provided solution.
    Having Schedule line category- CS which results in a Purch Req and also passng the requirement is an impossible task through standard SAP
    I tried many ways - however in the R3 Schedule Line config, you can maintain only one of them- Either generating a requirement or a Purch Req.
    <b>The workaround which I can think of- which your company might not agree:</b>
    Maintain stock at your internal location and change the sales order type from third party processing to a standard order type.
    As you will be forecasting for these materials, the requirements and receipts can be generated far out in the future and can be passed on to the vendor who will supply you in advance.
    I know this is not an optimal solution- However I cannot think of any workaround
    Just tried offering some inputs as no one else was responding
