Hi Mithun,

First you need to check that whether your basis team is going to provide you the seeburger adapter or not.

coz you can do this work writting a java module and appending it with a native XI adaper for your custom purpose.java module will change the EDI format to XML in outbound and XML to your destination format accordingly.

The scenario is to take a EDI-850 purchase order document from a ftp folder and transform it into SAP format (sap table) and post it in a given location.

I got help from a colleague for details about the EDI-850 document. I was also learning XI. I have learnt to take a flat file from a ftp folder and post it in a different location using a RFC program. I also learnt from sdn that there is a adapter called seeburger adapter for transforming EDI files to SAP formats. It would be great if you could give me an idea about what my next step should be.I also read thaqt there are many seeburger adapters. Can you tell me which one should I ask my basis consultant to install for my scenario.

Hi Ash,

Seeburger EDI Adapter provides an EDI solution on internet via HTTP or AS2 to replace the expensive VAN. It provides some pre-built mappings for IDOC to ANSI X12(810,850,855,856 etc.,) and Idoc to EDIFACT(ORDERS,DESADV,INVOIC etc.,) and has the ability to build your own. These pre-defined mappings transform the IDOC-XML to EDI-XML format.

These transformed EDI-XML messages are then converted to EDI specific format using the Seeburger's BIC(Business Integration Converter)adapter. In addition, Seeburger provides adapters like AS2,FTP(EDI specific) and so on to route these EDI messages to external EDI Partners.

Seeburger EDI Adapter leverages SAP XI's Adapter Framework. This Adapter is used to perform conversion between EDI and XML format. It also provides some canned EDI layouts and the ability to build your own. It is used to transfer the EDI message via HTTP or AS2 protocols.

Hi,

Seeburger offers different adaptors for communication.

-AS2

-OFTP

-VanFTP

-X400

- EDI Adaptor

Seeburger delivers for the EDI translation to XML an EDI Converter which is implemented as a module in XI.

Additional to each single Adaptor you can buy the following Business Package:

.Automotive Industry Adapter

• Aerospace & Defence Industry Adapter

• Chemicals Industry Adapter

• Consumer Products Industry Adapter

• Consumer Packaged Goods UK Industry Adapter

• Generic EDI Adapter

• High Tech Industry Adapter

• Paper Industry Adapter

• Payment Industry Adapter

• Pharmaceutical Industry Adapter

• Retail Industry Adapter

• Retail UK Industry Adapter

They contain some content mapping templates for XI and different communication adapter, what depends on the type of Business Package.

The best is you talk to your SAP sales person to find out if a Business Package is usefull. Or only the gerneric adapter with an additional communication adaptor.

Hope this is helpfull for you
