Integration approach for sending files(.pdf or .doc) from SAP to Non SAP

[sabyasachi_mohapatra3]

We have a scenario where we have to send a file (.pdf or .doc) from the SAP system to a Non SAP system.

What could be the possible approaches for integration.Could we use webservices to send the files from SAP to Non SAP system.

Could you also comment on the feasibility and the complexity involved in the webservice approach.

Thanks & Regards

The possible approaches for integration are

a) File adapter to transfer file ( This is simple approach)

b) Yes Webservice is feasible to send the files from SAP to Non SAP system (Again with the detailed requirement we can even filter out more possibilities).

c) If the requirement is just pass through, we can use even mail adapter to transfer files as attachment too.

Hope that helps.

Hi ,

From SAP system if file is available in File system then you can use file adapter.

and you need to check with your receiver system how they will accept the file?

If they can give you file sytem or FTP access to their server then in receiver side you can also use the File adapter.
