Define a Webservice

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying a SOAP --> PI --> BAPI scenario.

I am in the Configuration Directory and trying to define the webservice. However I am using a BAPI that I imported from our ECC system and it is not coming up as an option in step 3 for me to select. In fact for that fact I can't even see any IDocs or BAPI's I can only see the Message Interfaces. Is there something that needs to be done for me to be able to use BAPI, RFC or IDocs?

you need to define a MI.

Create a MI and use it to define the Webservice.

One tip.

If you want to actually have the BAPI structure for your Webservice definition then create a MI and provide the bapi req. and resp. in the MI
