R/3 to Supplier

[Former Member]

R/3 (IDOC) to XI to Suppliers(cXML)

R/3 sends the Purchase Orders and also they are sending PDF Attachments to XI

Question : How to Orchestrate the above scenario i.e. sending an IDOC and the PDF attachment to XI. Each PDF attachment will be stored with the IDOC number in a file system, once the IDOC arrives from R/3 to XI, XI need to poll the file system for the corresponding PDF.

Jenni,

You will need a BPM for this.

A BPM with a Fork and 2 Receive Steps -- One for the IDOC and one For the File. After that, you can do the necessary mapping / validation inside your BPM itself.

See this example for using multiple Receive and Fork,
