Hi,

Can you share the reason why you wanted to use TIBCO replacing the SAP PI when it is provided FOC to you as customer? It will provide some insight for SAP product teams on customer thought and ideas...

Back to your original question, it should be possible to route the IDOC from ERP via TIBCO. However how TIBCO can mapped and called the SUS SOA method, you would need to check via the TIBCO functional guides.

Best regards.

Hi,

We are removing XI completely from our client.

So they dont want XI for this application alone.

Hi All,

Is there any way we can directly update SUS with out any interface ?

If yes please explain that thing.

Can you please also explain the TIBCO interface also, how we can do ?

Hi,

TIBCO is just a messaging bus which bring data from source to destination. Similarly for SAP PI. However, what SAP PI has an edge over TIBCO is that structure mapping has already been provided from IDOC (MM) to the XML (SUS) type.

The IDOC send out from MM is CREMAS IDOC and the receiving XML msg for SUS is posted into the service interface SupplierPortalTradingPartner_CreateOrChange_In.

To setup the supplier organization in the SUS, you cannot bypass the above service interface.

Hi,

Without middleware replication, just write your own Z program to take the ERP IDOC data to post to the SUS FM BBP_API_BUPA_IN directly.

You need to map the IDOC content to the FM importing field correctly as well as populating some of the SUS configuration data. Please reference to the SUS FM BBP_XI_BUPA_IN on what the codes are doing.

Hi,

You have to use middleware to replicate vendors. XI infact converts the vendor IDOC from MM into XML format for SUS.

What is the need to go for TIBCO when SAP recommends XI as an interface even for non SAP systems?
