Sync Scenario

Hey,
I have a Google Account, a MacBook Pro, and a BlackBerry Pearl.
I want to keep my contacts, calendars, and tasks in sync between all of them.
I know I can sync Google Contacts into Address Book using the preference option (I once had an iPhone attached to this computer so it activated that option), I can put my calendar on Google Calendar and subcribe to it in iCal, and then using Missing Sync of PocketMac to keep in sync between my Mac and BlackBerry.
Disadvantage to above solution: Google Calendar sync is only one way, but I can use Google Calendar sync on the BlackBerry to keep them in sync.
The above solution would work but its so convoluted just to be able to tote all my PIM data around with me.
Google itself fortunately directed me to this solution: Spanning Sync. Seems pretty good and solves the sync issue between Mac and Google for Contacts and Calendars, then I can just sync to the Blackberry once I have the information locally on my Mac.

  • How to implement Sync-Sync scenario in BPM? Please help!

    Hi Experts,
       I have a Sync-Sync scenario (SOAP - RFC) where both sender as well as receiver are synchronous.
       I have created outbound sender sync interface, abstract sender sync interface, Receiver abstract sync interface and Receiver inbound sync interface.
      In BPM I have started with Receive step.
      But in receive step I can give either Async Abstract interface or Open Sync-Async bridge. I am confused!
      How to implement my scenario in BPM?
      It will be really great if somebody can send me the step by step info or doc.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Message-Split in a Sync Scenario

    Hello Experts.
    As i am quite new to Pi, i have some problems with an integration scenario we are about to implement. As i am not really into the topic, i do'nt even know, if the prefered solution can be implemented in PI or if our current approach is nonsense after all.
    The currently preferred solution would look like this:
    1.) The sender system collects the data and sends one message using a synchronous webservice call
    2.) PI splits the message into n parts (one outgoing message per receiving system), sends the message-parts synchronously to the receiving systems, collects the response messages into one big message and sends this message as the response message for the webservice-call, the sender system made.
    3.) The sender system receives the response message and updates the database.
    The problem is, that i have no clue how to do a message-split in a Sync scenario. I already experimented with a message-split in Async scenarios and everything worked fine, but i have no idea, how to do the trick in a Sync scenario.
    As the incoming message represents a table (only one kind of element; occurence 0...unbounded), i would have to do the following:
    1.) Split the incoming message line by line (or childnode by childenode)
    2.) Collect the lines for the single receiver systems (each receiver should get only one message)
    3.) Send the messages
    4.) receive the results
    5.) Join the results into one response message / Handle timeouts, if a receiver could not be reached in time
    6.) Send the response message to the sender system
    When experimenting with the async scenario, i used BPM to split the message into parts, but an integration process seems to need asynchronous abstract interfaces. At least PI did not accept my synchronous message-Interface and even if it would do so, i would have no idea how to send the message parts synchronously and how to join the results.
    Of course we could also send one record per message - in this case everything would be easy and clear, but unfortunatelly this is not the preferred solution, but the "Plan B"...
    Does anybody know how to do what we want? Any suggestions would be highly appreciated.
    And by the way: We are using PI 7.0.
    Regards, Jörg

    Thanks for your reply.
    I was already afraid, that the preferred approach could be a dead end. If the described scenario is impossible to implement, i could immagine two alternative solutions:
    1.) Our "Plan B":
    -> Single records
    -> One record per message
    -> Synchronous communication
    PI would only have to do a quite stupid routing based on a certain field in the message.
    2.) Something totally different:
    -> Asynchronous communication
    -> The sender still send the data for n receivers in one message
    -> PI splits the message and sends the n parts to n receivers
    -> The receiver sends a response after processing the data
    -> PI simply forwards this message to the sender
    I think scenario #2 could have a better performance, as the total number of messages is limited to the necessary minimum, but as i'm not experienced in PI, i'm not actually sure about this.
    Any recommendations?
    regards, Jörg

  • Can't see messages on sxi_monitor for sync scenario?

    Hi gurus,
    We are using PI 7.11. We found after no operation for ESR or ID for a long time, the system pops up the error "no authorization...", then we have to click esr on pi main page and logon again. Is there any parameter to change the user session or somthing?
    Thanks in advance.

    your subject line seems different to the issue you are having...
    or they could be the same!  have you set the messaging logging for sync scenarios in SXMB_ADM?
    can you explain the actual problem you are having?  it makes no sense.

  • Xml validation in File to RFC Sync Scenario with Validation fails message

    Hi All,
    We are using PI 7.4 (Dual Stack) the Requirement is File to RFC Sync Scenario(File <---> RFC).and need to do XML validation against XSD Schema. if any Validations fails Response message should send back to sender.RequestResponseBean standard module is using for File to RFC Sync scenario but how to send the response message to sender if any validation fails. adapter level XML validation is not helpful for this requirement. please help out me how to achieve the requirement with graphical mapping.
    Thanks in advance.

    to validate schema you cannot solve it with graphical mapping but validating the schema in the AAE or the integration engine.
    y recomend you to use the AAE validation at sender side, coz the sender system will be notified in case of schema errors.
    The response will be validated at Integration Server level.
    you can search in the forum, you will get many document about how to configure it.
    take a look to my blog: PI 7.3  - XML Validation

  • SOAP to RFC - Sync Scenario. How to find where the response is going to?

    Hello All
    I have a SOAP to RFC sync scenario.
    In SXMB_MONI,  i see that both the initial message and the response message are successfully processed.
    But, the SOAP sender is not receiving the response message.
    How can i trouble shoot this scenario? How can i findout what is going wrong?
    Most importantly, How can i find out the web address of the SOAP sender? I do not see it anywhere.
    Thanks

    /people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2008/01/08/troubleshooting--rfc-and-soap-scenarios-updated-on-20042009
    You can by pass your message through a TCPIP gateway , this will help you to see the message contnet and the SOAP header information.
    TCPIPGW application is availabel in one of the SAP notes for Monitoring SOAP adapter. and 2 SAP SDN PI  blogs are also there on how to use this application...

  • Sending Request Mapping errors back to a consumer for a sync scenario

    Hello Experts,

    I also want to communicated back to the consumer, if there are any connection failures between PI and CRM.

    Hello,
    I have a sync scenario (JAVA Application <-> PI <-> CRM (service)) where i want to send back any mapping exception that occurs in PI on the request side of the call, back to the consumer.
    You can use the XI alerting framework for that, here are some references:

  • Stuck in BPM Transformation process Async to Sync Scenario

    Hi there im building up a   R/3 ---> Idoc PI -
    >Soap  3rd Party   Async/Sync Scenario,
    on the integration process window i drag a transformation box to change my input idoc to the structure the Webservice needs, but i cant import it, i tried to make a new one using the abstract interfaces im using but it tells me i cant transform an Async Interface ( Idoc ) to an Sync Interface ( Webservice ), any sugestions?, i can provide everything i have done up to date regarding interfaces mappings and stuff if needed, thx!!!,
    Roberto.

    but it tells me i cant transform an Async Interface ( Idoc ) to an Sync Interface ( Webservice ), any sugestions
    You cannot perform a mapping between an Async MI and a Sync MI....not only for a BPM but even in general
    Your BPM should have below steps:
    Receive(IDOC)-> Transformation(IDOC_to_SOAPReq...both Async)-> SyncSend(SOAPReq and SOAPResp Messages)
    You need below Container elements in your BPM:
    1 for receiving the IDOC
    1 for the SOAPReq message
    1 for the SOAPResp message
    You cannot have a Container element for Sync Interface.....you include the ABS Sync MI directly in the SyncSend step and then will get Request and Response fields (automatically)....here specify the SOAPReq and SOAPResp Container elements.......
    Your Interface Mapping will be between MI_IDOC_ABS and MI_SOAPReq_ABS......and then you can inlcude this in the Transformation step
    Just a question to ask....what are you going to do once you receive the SOAPResp message?
    Regards,
    Abhishek.

  • Dynamic receiver Determination for Sync Scenario??

    Hello Experts,
      I have a SOAP -> Xi -> R3 sync scenario i,e, R3 to send back response to SOAP client.
    Also I need the Dynamic receiver determination.
    When I try to create the Interface Mapping, I get the error:
    "Interface modi are different. "
    Source interface MI_My_sync_iface is synchronous.
    Target interface  ReceiverDetermination | http://sap.com/xi/XI/System is asynchronous
    I coud find few threads on forum related to this but i think there is no clear solution provided.
    I do not wanna use BPM.
    Please suggest.
    Thanks in Advance!
    Appropriate point will be awarded.

    > So when I try to define a interface Mapping using a Sync interface as Source and Async interface as target, XI does not allow me to do so.
    You are getting this error because in Interface mapping when you use sync source then it generates request and response tab so if at target side if you put anync interface then definetly it will go into error. You have to make both the interfaces as sync.
    BTW, after getting the message in R3, how are processing the message? Are you using sync proxy??
    You can solve the problem by creating one additional message interface of type inbound-asyn. Use this additional Message interfce in your Interface Determination. And create additional Receiver Agreement to deliver the message to it's destination.
    Note: When you careate additional Interface Determination then you have to chose the response message interface (Sync message interface which returns the response from R3) as a source.

  • Soap to proxy : sync scenario

    Hi
    Have a new PI 7.1 system , wanted to do a soap to proxy sync scenario
    Do i need to create business system for proxies or if I just create 2 business services: one for sender and other for reciever ,it would suffice?
    Is there any advantage / dsiadvantage if I use Business service instead of Business systems?
    In SLD if I just create a product /swcv : it should be good if I want to use Business service mechanism instead of Business syste, ? or is creating Technical system and Business system mandatory even if I have to configure scnearios using Business service
    Thnx

    Business Systems require technical systems/software components and products, from an organisational perspective in PI it might be a good idea to define these things for an external entity (Business System). As far as Im aware business Services do not have that same requirment.
    I tend to limit business service usage to one off or simple interaction B2B, as soon as you have more than one adapter interacting with the same external entity a business system with all of "their" adapters will help keep things clear to other people configuring integration scenario's. Whilst smart naming standard will get you around this most of the time, it makes more sense to put them together under the one system.
    Hope this helps.

  • (SOAP sender) --- XI ---- R/3 (RFC receiver) this sync scenario

    Hi Experts,
    Webservice(SOAP sender) < - > XI <--> R/3 (RFC receiver) this sync scenario tested with Infopath successfully.
    I have given partner number,student object id are the two input fields(request) and i am getting student number as response. This scenario is working when i use MS infopath.
    I have generated WSDL file embedded with below URL
    http://xxxx.yyytec.passh.ed:7271/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:Webservice_Sender_BS:GET_NUMBERS_Sender_CC&version=3.0;amp;Sender.Service=Webservice_Sender_BS;amp;Interface=urn%Apache
    Sender business system: Webservice_Sender_BS
    Sender CC: GET_NUMBERS_Sender_CC
    Msg Interface: STU_GET_NUMBERS_Synch_MI
    now we want to test from third party website, what are the things to be provided to the website developer to test the scenario.
    the way i generated URL, is it correct?
    if i provide above URL and generated WSDL in XI , is it enough for web developer to enter the input fields to RFC(r/3) via XI as webservice request and getting back response from RFC(r/3) to webservice via XI.
    can you please advice if any body worked on this kind of scenario.
    Thanks
    Dhanush.

    For the developer you have to provide WSDL file so that they know the input/output fields and write the code.
    URL is correct.
    Other informatino they required is Username and password of you PI system.

  • Can you explain steps in the Async and Sync scenarios JDBC to RFC.

    Hi,
    Can you explain some basic steps in the Async and Sync scenarios for sending data from JDBC to RFC.
    Like,
    The data is picked up from the  database table through JDBC adapter.
    It is passed on to SAP  by calling the RFC. RFC gets executed         
    successfully. The status is returned by the RFC. The status needs to be
    updated back into the SQL database table.
    Is this a sync case or async case.
