Hi Experts,,

We are new to SAP. We need to implement the following scenarios in our landscape..Please give us suggestion how to proceed further.

Scenario 1::

There is no PI at cutomer landscape and only SAP R/3 system is present..But in our landscape PI is present.From their SAP R/3 how we can connect to our PI?

Scenario 2::

Suppose if there is no PI and SAP R/3 and customer is only willing to give .csv file or any flat file , from our PI how we can pick that flat file at customer side?

If there is no PI in the customer landsacpe then can they send the messages using http (web service etc) ?

There is also an option to ask them to put the csv/flat file in there own FTP server which you can remotely acces using PI

Hi,

You need to make a connectivity for your R/3 and also your PI system (like RFC connections e.t.c) so that you would be able to connect.Please contact your BASIS administrator so that you would be able to do it.

Hi,

>>The problem is the customer dont have PI and have only R/3 system.

You can do the following..

1) In order to connect your customer's R/3 system from your PI, establish connection between their R/3 and your PI via ALE settings( RFC Destination, Port, Partner Profile etc..)

2) Your customer can send Idoc's from their R/3 system to your PI system after establishing ALE settings.

3) Your PI System will receive Idoc and process it in PI mapping then convert that to your desired format based on the receiver system

No problem.

1) Do ALE Configuration between Customer R/3 and your PI. Now ask customers to send idocs to PI.

Check this link

http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/ABAP/7StepsForALEConfiguration

or

2)through proxy configuration between Customers and Your PI, you can establish communication. There are plenty of ways to connect R/3 to PI.

>>Scenario 2::

>>Suppose if there is no PI and SAP R/3 and customer is only willing to give .csv file or any flat file , from our PI how we can >>pick that flat file at customer side?

Create NFS at unix level and request customer to drop file over there. Configure File adapter in PI to pick up the file. The file can be flat file or xml.
