Hi all:

As we all know that, when IE gets a idoc's service name from SLD, then use it with idoc's message type and Idoc type to do receiver determniation, what about flat file ? how can we know its Service name and interface name if there is only a flat file on FTP? how IE works for Flat file ?

Couldn't thank you more

first of all for a flat file, it is not IE but AE who get it into the IE.

The main factor here is the communication channel that retrieves the file.

then in the sender agreement, it binds it to a Service and Interface

Hi,

For any idoc scenarious, you would use business systems rather than business service which is stored in SLD. So the IE would fetch it from SLD at runtime.

For file based scenarious also, you can create business system as type third party and use the same.

Is that answer your question?
