1.How to choose weather we have to use ABAP proxy r

IDoc adapter r RFC adapter for R/3 systems.

2.What is BPM? What is the advantage of using BPM?

3.I have one scenario, One sender(file sys) and two receivers(jdbc sys, idoc ) for this i used BPM. Is it possible to do this scenario without BPM? How to do that.

Dear Rakesh,

BPM comes into Picture when we go for a conditions, With out BPM also we can develop the interface. Assume when an error occurs during process if you want to handle the error one of the way is using BPM.

If you have Web server is > 6.2 you can go for ABAP proxy other than in your scenerio mentioned have to go for Idoc Adapter.

Let me know any clarifications,

Thanks & Regards

Rakesh,

For the adapters to be used, see the blog shown by Shekhar written by Ravi ( My Boss incidentally ). Should answer your question.

For sending the File to multiple JDBC , you can avoid using a BPM doing multiple reciver or interface determintation.

Let me know if you need inputs.

BPM is used to implement work-flow spanning across multiple application system against embedding the parts of work-flow in application system. Apart from this it also help achive other scenarios like, bridging synch and asynch systems, alert mechanism, multi mapping etc. Check the BPM overview document in SDN download section.

Check out the use cases discussed at http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/de/766840bf0cbf49e10000000a1550b0/content.htm

BPM is mainly used in senarios where extra functionalities are to be done with the source message which cannot be done using the normal mapping and user-defined functions, like

-->Collecting of messages till a certain count or for a specific criteria.

-->Merging messages

-->Spliting messages

-->Processing of error files and sending to specific location and sending alerts.

-->Parallel processing of two criterias at the same time can also be done using BPM.
