Doubt regaurding message server in IR, partner profile and transporting XI

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

Can someone help me in figuring out the need of message server and group after importing IDOC into IR. where can i find the message server ip address?

I am also wondering in the partner profiles when we need to use logical system (LS) or Supplier/vendors (LI) or Customers/debtor (KU) or etc.?

Please explain how to transport developer xi system to production server?

Cheers

Ram

Hi,

>>>>Can someone help me in figuring out the need of message server and group after importing IDOC into IR. where can i find the message server ip address?

you may not need it at all

just put your R3 IP (from SAPlogon) when you click on the import IDOC

button in IR

>>>>I am also wondering in the partner profiles when we need to use logical system (LS) or Supplier/vendors (LI) or Customers/debtor (KU) or etc.?

in most cases you use LS (LS can be XI name)

so you don't have to use LI or KU at all

as you can do IDOC routing inside XI

with KU and LI you could (in the past) do the routing inside R3

if you wanted to specify different ports but

if you have only one port (pointing to XI) there's no need for them

Hi,

>>>>----> how to transport XI objects to production system?

the easiest way is to use file transport

you can export a file from IR and ID and import it into QAT and then into PRD

all you need for ID is to create transport targets in SLD

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ef/a21e3e0987760be10000000a114084/content.htm

so the names of your systems will change

you can also refer to this:

/people/sap.india5/blog/2005/11/09/xi-software-logistics-ii-overview

but as I mentioned file tranport is the easiest way

>>>>-------> How about the option group?

you can put everything in idoc import menu

and use separate option when asked
