XI pricing / message size

Former Member

Hi guys!

I understand that XI licensing is based on message throughput, both for inbound and outbound messages and if originator or destination is SAP licensed system, then message is not counted.

What I need is the information about size of the message which SAP measures. Is it original inbound / outbound message size (for example, I'm sending zipped IDoc to XI engine) or it's converted XML message which XI is using for mapping?

Thx in advance,

Ivan

It is the size of the message going through the non-SAP adapters (other than rfc/idoc).

So it doesn't matter how many MATMAS idocs you send to XI from ECC, what matters is the amount of data you extract from these idocs and send out with a file/jms/jdbc/etc. adapter.

Tim,

On similar lines, any idea on what about Lookup's?

Say I have a JDBC lookup , would that mean licensing costs ?

And if it is a RFC Lookup , no licensing ? If yes, then I am for RFC lookup's and not JDBC anywhere I go from here on. After all I need to help my client reduce his costs

Regards

That's how I understand it. JDBC lookups would be measured both ways (the request and the response). RFC lookups are free.
