FEH for File Interfaces?

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

Can we use Forward Error Handling (FEH) for implementing error handling in File Interfaces ?

Like for simple Application Server file interfaces, if something goes wrong during the process of writing/reading a file on App Server, can we use FEH for showing the log?

I know it is a concept used for PI...so we want to know if it can be used for file interfaces as well? Just want to keep similar approach for error handling and logging (for both PI and File Interfaces).

Thanks.

Ankush,

No. FEH can't be used in error handling of File interfaces.

FEH works on ABAP classes (ABAP proxy, custom IDocs, custom BAPI...). Target SAP system should implement ABAP code with FEH classes.

Just a slight correction.

FEH is used in the ABAP backend systems and are only for asynchronous inbound proxy interfaces. It is not available for sync proxies, IDocs, BAPIs. Neither is it available for any error handling on the PI system itself.
