External Format

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I have a requirement and was wondering if I could get some help.

We have configured Outbound Idoc which goes to the Vendor's Non SAP system. They no more want the file in IDOC format. They want it in EDI format and my company does not want to buy any subsystem to convert the SAP IDOC format to EDI Format accepted by the vendor.

Can this be achieved in XI? Can SAP IDOC format get converted into EDI Format and then transmit it to the vendor system?

Is there any documentation for conversion ?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks.

By Default SAP XI does not have the capability to do this, but using Seeburger adapter in SAP XI, this is done.

Read this document to know more about EDI Integration using SAP XI and Seeburger Adapter:
