BPM Function Call

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have an IDCO XI File scenario as 1:N (Multiple legacy systems)using BPM.

The File that is been sent to the legacy system is when updated (in the database)needs a response back to XI either by RFC or method.

How can it be done?Is there any How to guides or Weblogs or Example scenario?

Please give me an advice.

Thank you,

Joslyn.

Hi,

You have multiple legacy systems. XI is using File Adapter to communicate with all legacy systems ? If so, from where you need to get response ?

Because file adapter will not support Application Acknowledgement, it will only support System Acknowledgement,

Can you explain more ( what is your receiver /from where you need to get repsonse)..

Regards,

Hi moorthy,

The File adapter donot support application acknowledgement,then JDBC adapter or Abap proxy will support the Application acknowledgement?

If so,can you explain how it can be done.

My reciever is a AS/400 system.

Thank you.

You need to go for Synchrnous communications for this. If you use Jdbc/ABAP proxy(Proxy -WAS 6.20 above SAP systems) , you can achieve this.

SO here it is a synchronous call.

But how AS/400 communicates with XI ? Is thru File Adapter ? If so, you can make use one more scenario, i.e AS/400->XI->SAP . This will act as a response. but it is different scenario..

To synchronous communications , you can refer this e.g
