Hi! Ravi
I think the above contirbutors has give some links hence here I want to explain the steps to be done while sending Data from XI to BW..
In the mean time check the below link...
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/18dfe590-0201-0010-6b8b-d21dfa9929c9
Steps:
SLD and IR part
1. First Create RFC Destination between XI and BW.
2. First Create SLD Objects like Products and Software Component Version, and Technical Systems and  
    Business Systems....and then Import those to IR and ID
3. Now Create Sender DT, MT, MI and no need of creating Receiver Side ok
4. Now Import coresponding RFC and do Message and Interface Mappings.
ID:
1. Now after importing Business Systems create 2 Communication channels
1. Sender as FILE :
File parameters:
Adapter Type = File
Transport Protocol= File NFS / FTP (lets take FTP)
Message Protocol=File
Adapter Engine=IS
FILE ACCESS PARMETERS:
Source Directory= you FTP Source Sender location ( Create one path in FTP location Pick the files and
                              also anotehr to Archive also)
File Name=  XXXXXXXX ( please make sure that no spaces and the file you are placing in this path should
                                  be same as given in this CC)
Processing Prameters
QOS: If it s Asynchronous means EXACTLY ONCE
Poll Interval = its your choice based on the req (Lets =10/20)
Processing Mode= Delete
Pleasse note that you are selecting an option Delete so that it can delete the file once after the file is picked
also by selecting Archive Dierectory radio button and enter the Archive path so that it nmay delete there and save a copy here in this path ok
Now enter Authentification Details
i.e., FTP Server path
USer Name :
PWD***********  REtype PWD****************
Port No:**
now select Active
2. RFC Communication Channel:
Adapter Type=RFC
Receiver
TP=RFC
MP=RFC(RFC
Enter Application Server name and
System NO
Authentification Details of BW and
Cleint Details
now select Active..
remaining Agreements and Determinations are same....
Finally Activate all of you IR and ID objects..
Testing:::
Note:: Before placing the file in FTP make sure that your FTP path has RWX red and write access permission ....
logon to FTP and place the XML document as the same name as which you have given in your Sender CC without spaces........in the FTP Source Directory path
and press REFRESH..
based on the poll interval it will   pikcs and delete there and keep and maintain a copy in the archvie directory
Note:: WHile configuring the sender File CC please select ADD TIME STAMP..so that it may enter with time and date while archiving..
Now Go to SXMB_MONI....and check the status whether it s SUCESS or ERROR flag
if it is sucess....
MAIN POINTS PLEASE REMEMBER
1. Logon on to BW System..
2. Enter Tcode: RSA7
note your RFC and check no of messages if it is previously 6 and after sending it will add one and show as 7
means your Job is over at this part later BW team will check and invoke that data...
If it is ERROR flag:
Go to RWB -Message Moni and check where teh mEssae fails I mean either at Integration ENgne level or adapter Engine level adn check the AUDIT LOG at both the levels..
you canalso check this at Communication channel monitorinng...........
or else if it as queues go to
SMQ1 and SMQ2 and release the queues..
