Hi,

The AS adapter, used in PI to communicate using As2 protocol is not a SAP standard adapter. There are 3rd party adapters like Seeburger which can be purchased and used in PI to communicate using the AS2 protocol.

Search in SDN using Seeburger AS2 adapter and u'll get a lot of helpful links.

Note that AS2 is not available as a standard adapter in SAP PI.

You will have to install a 3rd party adapter to get this functionality.

A good option might be Seeburger AS2 adapter - http://www.seeburger.com/xi-pi-adapters/

Hi,

Yes AS2 adapter we use but how SAP PI can receive (and send) EDI transactions on AS2 protocol to various partners.

Is there different process in PI to do comparing sap adapters or any prerquistes we need to do in design and configure.

Hi,

For your sender or receiver AS2, you would need to define party's in PI containing the AS2 ID which would need to be defined in the party you have created for that particular system in PI.

If your sender is AS2, use option "Sender uses virtual receiver" while creating the Sender Agreement and Receiver Determination and define the intended Receiver in these pipeline steps.

For configuring the AS2 adapter itself, refer the link that I have provided earlier.
