Idoc-to-file

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I want to test Idco-to-File scenario.

Could any one clarify my following doubts.

1)I have an SAP-ISU system and XI system

2)I want to find an Idoc with name, that name i should use as outbound message in XI scenario

3)I want to select one idoc form SAP-ISU, and generate that idoc with data,

4)what settings I should make at SAP-ISU side and SAP-XI side.

Ur help makes me start the scenario.

Regards,

venu.

Hi Venu,

You will have to create a businness system of third party type in your XI.

To be able to trigger your IDOC from the SAP ISU system, you will have to set the partnet profile in we20. Select your Business System ( mostly under Logical system) and then create Outbound entries for whichever IDOC you want to trigger.

Also, I would suggest that you go through this blog by michal if any issue arises,

Hi Bhvesh,

Thank u very much for ur response.

In setting partner profiles (WE20) I have following doubts.

1)I selected partner type LS

2)what partner number i should give.

So far I have just created third party business system(For receiver side) and trying to follow the complete walk through blog

but what my main problem is I'm unable to find correct idoc for testing

I have a plan to create Zidoc and want to place some data and want generate that idoc.

I want guidance form u in doing this scenario.

Hi Bhavesh,

Does system name and hostname creation in Technical system impacts Idoc-to-file scenario.

Hi Chemmanz,

You define your basic type in your partner profile settings, and i think doing the same will solve your problem. Please go thru the following links to get a better idea about partner profile:

Hi Venu,

As you are trying to trigger an IDOC for test purposes, I would suggest that you use any IDOC available on your system for the outbound side. You dont have to create an IDOC at all. Just use any of the IDOC s available with SAP like, MATMAS, CLEFMAS, so on and so forth.

on R/3 side,

1. create RFC dest for XI using SM59.

2. go to WE05 , select the IDoc u want to send.(remember its number)

3. Goto WE21 or IDX1 ,create port for XI system.

on XI side,

1. create RFC dest, using SM59 for R/3 system.

2. create port using IDX1 for R/3.

SLD:

1.create 3rd party type product, SWCV, TS, BS.

These are the basic settings. Refer to experts for more information.

Thanks,

Raj.

Hi Bhavesh,

Where should Partner Profile should be configured for the outbound IDoc (in R/3 or in XI)??

Thanks

Hi Andy,

The Partner Profiles should be maintained in backend R/3 with transaction WE20.

Hi Sam /Bhavesh,

Thanks, in the File to IDOC scenario where should we create partner profile ???

Thanks

Andy

[bhavesh_kantilal · Accepted solution]

Hi Andy,

In thie file to idoc, as the idoc will now be sent from your XI, the partner profile should be done on your XI system. Also, you will have a receiver IDOC adapter in this case along with a receiver agreeement.

Hi Andy,

In case of File to IDoc Scenario, you don't have to create or maintain Partner Profile in XI.

In case of A2A Scenario, you have to create a Logical system name in R/3 using Tr.code BD54 and assign this Logical system name to your BS in SLD. In the R/3, you have to create partner profile with LS and inbound parameters to receive this idoc from XI.

Refer to this how-to-guide on the SAP Service Market Place for a step-by-step configuration.

https://service.sap.com/~form/sapnet?_SHORTKEY=01200252310000071155&_SCENARIO=01100035870000000202&_...

In case of B2B configuration(Partners like Vendor,Customer or Bank), you have to create Parties and specify the identifier for the backend R/3(for example, BS_SR3, ALE#<Partner Role>#<Partner function>, and the R/3 Partner Number. You also have to maintain the identifier tab for your Idoc sender adapter.

In addition, you have to create partner profile with inbound parameters in R/3 to receive this IDoc.

Refer to this how-to-guide for a step-by-step config.

Hi Raj,

I'm using IORD tcode to generate idoc based on service order created in iw31.

But idoc is not generating and giving information as operation need to be selected.

R/3 side settings i have done following

sm59:

R/3 connections->

rfc destination : XI logical system

connection type :3

targethost:xi host

Logon security:

XI details with user XIRFCUSER

I have doubt whether it is my xi user or system user.

WE05: I'm not having authorization from SAP side..

What type of role as an XI i expect from R/3 side.

WE21:

port: given the port number created XI side

RFC destination: used the one which is created above

hostdestination: XI

charset size: 161 , here what should i give

XI side

SM59:

doubt in creation of rfc destination.

created port using service user rfc destination.

pls can u guide me where i'm doing wrong

venu.

Venu Gopal,

For authorization problems, you cant do anything. Since you cant assign roles yourself, contact your basis and security team to explain what you need.

Authorization problems in other contexts like '403 Forbidden' occurs due to inactive services, which needs to be activated after installation. Please see this SAP note , 517484.

Tnx,

Raj.
