Integration between SAP and Third Party without PI in between

[Former Member]

Hi All,

We have a requirement where in we need to integrate SAP and a Third Party Product without PI in between.The third party product is exposing their Web services as API.

So, we have an idea of exposing our RFC/BAPI as web service ,so that it can call/consume the third party web services.On these lines I have a couple of doubts,

1.How will the monitoring of message be done?Is there any Tcode to monitor the RFC exposed Web services?

2.What would be the advantages and disadvatages of this approach?

Thanks.

Well taking out PI will 'exclude' advantages like able to monitor the messages, resending messages, error handling etc.
