Can we trigger ABAP proxy from PI?

[former_member201987]

Hello Experts,

We are sending some data from R/3 system through PI 7.1 using Proxies and HTTP adapter to third party.

For that we have generated ABAP proxy for the service interface and developed reports to trigger the proxy.

My query is can we periodically trigger the proxy from PI 7.1itself instead of skeduling a job in R/3 system?

Thanks in advance,

Hi Suraj,

Yes it seems possible. Like invoking the report from PI and then the report will invoke the proxy, which will fetch records and send to PI.

But this process shoudl be avoided as :

1. it makes the task complex (triggering task)

2. An extra interfaces needs to be maintained in PI (for this simple job)

HEllo All,

Thanks for your prompt replies!!

Atleast I got an Idea if it can be done or not.

It can be done. For that you need to use another client on PI which will then behave as an Application Server and your PI client would behave as the Integration server. Then this new client would act as any other SAP system (technically).

you can have two client is PI. One will be the integration server and other configured as application server (sxmb_adm -> integration engine configuration)

proxies can be triggered only from the application server

There could be some work around for this, but in general it is not possilbe. You have to schedule it in R3.

scheduling in R3/ECC is the right methodology instead of PI being the trigger.

The job needs to be maintained in the R3 system itself.....any particular reason for trigerring it from PI?
