Hi,

You will need to perform the necessary configuration steps in R/3 via transaction SXMB_ADM to establish connection under <Integration Engine> configuration. This is where you will set up the link to the SM59 destination for the Integration Server. This will need to match the SM59 entry and will read so0mething like dest://INTEGRATIONSERVER (where INTEGRATIONSERVER is the SM59 destination name)

Then run transaction SLDAPICUST -> this will have the details for the Integration Server.

Set up the R/3 system details in XI under business/technical systems.

Finally in R/3 run SLDCHECK to check communication is ok between R/3 and XI.

Any questions, give me a shout.

Cheers

Colin.

Hi Lou,

there are some things to do.

- SLD entries

- SM59 destinations

- Proxys: Configuration as application system (SXMB_ADM)

- IDox: XI: Setup Ports (IDX1), R/3: Partner Agreement (WE20), Log System Names (SALE), Ports (WE21)

- XI IB: Set Up adapter (Communication Channels)

..list not complete..

Hi,

There are different ways to interface with SAP R/3 system:

1. IDoc

2. RFC

3. File

4. ABAP Proxy (for this your SAP R/3 sytem needs to be on WAS 620 or above)

For any of the option you need to create Technical and Business system for the SAP R/3 system in the SLD.
