XI products and software components in SLD
We are starting to implement XI in order to exchange messages between R/3 systems.
Is it better to create a custom software component within the standard SAP R/3 Product (in the SLD), or do you suggest to create also a custom product (even if the systems involved are SAP systems) ?
Which are advantages and disadvantages ?
Thanks in advance.
I am not sure if the question is answered. I am trying to see what is correct. SAP appear to say build under the specific Product supplied. Or else, what is that used for ?
I am not a seasoned XI developer by far, however, upon reading XI books and documentation, i see that S/W components are attached to Products, and the Products are Imported into the Intergration Builder. I have also seen, and been told, that it is common practice to create a Product that reflects the Project, and then attach the S/W components under that, for which XI would be interfacing. For example, if I were working on a new project, say, "myProj" I would create a product called "myProd", then attach the S/W components involved, say, CRM under that. When the Product gets imported into the Intergration Builder, I continue my developments under a new namespace, that is under the Product "myProj".
Is this right?
In reality, "myProj" is not a Product, it is a project.
I hope this is clear
thanks

Transporting Products and Software components
Hi ALL,
I have two new products for which I have created the export file to be imported into the target system. The target system already contains few other products and Software components. Is it true that the new export file from source system will over write all entries in the target system?? or will it be an append ??
The " How to handle SLD for XI" doc tells that it will overwrite..I am a little concerned as there has been no SLD transports done in these boxes and all products currently in the target box have been manually created.

Naming conventions/hierarchies for products and software components
Hi,
Can someone please advise what they have found works well for naming products and software components and recommended hierarchies?
Following the SAP model it seems to make sense to have a custom product for each SAP product when we are developing custom interfaces for the related system, e.g. ZPRODMYCOMPDEVS_R3, ZMYCOMPDEVS_CRM etc.
Beneath this level as similar convention could be used for the software component, e.g. ZSWCMYCOMPDEVS_CRM or if it is a modular SAP system like R/3 perhaps a grouping per key application area? (e.g. HR, Finance, Logistics etc)
I know it's not compulsory to start these with 'Z' but it would help group custom developments.
Any advice greatly appreciated.

Product and Software component in SLD
Hi,
What is the basic concept of product and Software component.I have few questions.
If our company is going for Sap implementation of ISmedia
and XI as middleware for interfacing with other systems then what do we need to do for product and SWC.
Do we need to create a third party product and SWC for this project in sld?
We can create differnt Software component under the existing Product of SAP ISM
What are the best practices
Thanks,

Transport products and software component version
Hi,
I created a Products and its Software Component Version in System Landscape Directory of XI development.
I imported this Software Component Version into Integration Builder and developed design and configuration objects.
The scenario is completed and now I want to transport the Products and Software Component Version to XI Production.
Could someone please explain the transport procedure.Hi Shravan,
Thanks four your instructions. I would like to have more details on the export/import procedure. Please confirm the following steps are correct:
From SLD of XI development:
1/ Edit new product and its software component version.
2/ Click on icon Export: XI generates a zip file and downloads it in c drive.
From SLD of XI Production:
1/ Select Import utility under system catalog.
2/ Browse and select the zip file
In XI production there are existing third party products, and I do not want the transport of this new product causes any problem.
Design and configuration objects will be exported/import ed after the successful transport of product and software component version transport.

hi i added a few sofware products and hence components do we need to add these
to the technical and business systemYes add them. How ever, if you do not add them you will not get any error. But while editing the condition editor in Receiver agreement or Interface Determination, you will not get the source msg structure.
So it is better to add them.

PRODUCT AND SOFTWARE COMPONEBT VERSION
Hi Gurus,
I am using SAP PI 7.0 with SP .
Actually i have to create one product with my own name and one SWCV with name E-FILING GB.
But this SWCV already exist in SLD.
Now I am uing this SWCV and SAP HR 6.0 in IR by importing it from XI Standard Content.
In ID, I am using Integration Scenario by importing it from IR. Where I can get one application component SAP ERP 6 and one Templet with two different roles.
I have assinged one Business system to SAP ERP 6 application component on A2A tab and one party and one service on B2B tab.
And two Business services to other party.
I have added SWCV SAPHR 6.0 to SAP ERP 6 Standard pruduct in SLD.
But any where I not using the product which I created in the SLD.
What is the impact of this on the ID objects?
How to add a existing SWCV to the product which I created in SLD?
Regards
SreeniHi,
>>What is the impact of this on the ID objects?
>>How to add a existing SWCV to the product which I created in SLD?
create your own product and own SWCV
then if you want to use objects from any standard SWCV just
add dependecies and you will be able to reuse objects from those
standard
that's how you should do it

Unable to load software components from SLD
Does anybody know why I cannot import my software component into the Integration Repository? The IR displays the software components that are in the SLD but when I click on the software component that I want to import it gives an error message "No authorisation to import". Does anybody know exactly what role is required to be added to my userid? Many thanks.
Warrenhi warren,
You dont have suitable SLD rights for importing Software components
check this link for authorizations

Software Components and Products
Hi,
I am new to XI.
There are many software components and products available in SLD. I wanted to know which site should I visit to determine the functions or get details of each products and software components.
EdwardHi,

All standard SAP products and software components are shipped by SAP (SRM etc)
If you are planning to create a customer speicific components for the SAP SWCV, then create your own thridparty product based on SAP product, and then work on it. Now you can use dependency if you want make use of standard SAP delivered content.
Generally , thirdparty product is created based on the vendor and all the swcvs are created under that. Then all IR objects follow the same.
Have a look into this blog to get some hints-
