Inserting data into Z tables using webservice

[Former Member]

Hi,

We have a requirement wherein data coming from external system needs to be inserted/updated into Z tables present in SAP SRM system. The SRM doesn't have the standard IDOC or BAPI to access the Z tables. However the client wants us to send a webservice call to SRM from XI to to insert/update the data into Z tables. Basically, they don't want us to make a direct RFC call.

Please suggest various approaches possible to make a web service call to access the Z tables from XI. Also please suggest as to whether making a webservice call is better or to ask the ABAP group to create a custom BAPI so that XI can make a direct RFC call.

you can create a function module which manipulates the Z table and expose it as a web service. details here...

Hi,

if your SRM has WAS >= 6.20 then you can use ABAP proxy

(this is an WS call)

so your XI can call SRM via abap proxy and then your abap team can

create a function module that will process the message
