Hi There,

Hi Thanks ...

Inbound Proxy and ABAP proxy is the same concept?

some link with sample to test this option?

What is the advantage of using XI? or it would be even be an disadvantage to use it for XML DataSources?

Thanks

Hi,

ABAP proxy is an inbound proxy.

Advantage of using XI:

a) you have message flow in one place

b) you can generate any xml file

c) you have access to common standards in SAP like RFC and IDOC

Hi there,

what I deduce form these interesting links is that XI is present everywhere..

A proxy need also XI technology to be used in BW..

Hi,

What I need with the Data is to load it in a Cube..

The Structure of the XML is the one that I need in BW..

But to create a Proxy would be needed a XI integration?

No it's not needed. It was only an proposal. You can provide xml file into some directory on BW server.

Hi,

You have not mentioned what your destination sysyem is.

If you have decided on BW XI at one end then it's good to use ABAP Proxy.

Hi,

Maybe better is to create an inbound proxy on BW. Then you don't have to parse this xml on BW.

Hi,

depends what you need to do with that data...

if you want to pass it somehere then is depends where and

what is the size of the messages (and if you need to do any changed to the

message inside XI)
