SOAP Adapter Polling.

[HarshC]

Hi,

We have a scenario where I need to poll a website using a SOAP call every 15/30 mins. Since the SOAP adapter doesn't support polling what are my options.

Note:

a. The SOAP request is in a BPM.

b. Its a R/3 <-> XI <-> Website scenario

c. Current plan is to use idocs/rfc from R/3 as triggers to poll the website.

Regards,

Harsh

Hi,

>>>>a. The SOAP request is in a BPM.

this way you need to start the BPM first

so it's the same as c.

>>>>b. Its a R/3 <-> XI <-> Website scenario

yes you can use IDOCs, abap porxies or RFC

it's the same as c.

you mention only one option and it's a good one

as you will have a nice SAP scheduler

(you can schedule a report that will do the RFC call to XI)
