Idoc to XI to FTP BATCH process

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have a scenario to send idoc from SAP R/3 to FTP server using XI.

In this scenario, the interface should be executed in batch once in every hour.

How can I schedule the interface in BATCH running for every hour?

Please explain in detail if possible. Thanks a lot

Thanks

Ricky,

Is it ok if you can schedule your file adapter for every 1 hour. If yes then see this weblog:

/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/11/26/adapter-scheduling--hail-sp-19-

But what I see is one disadvantage. If you send Idocs from R3 it will reach to XI and will stay in XI till the adapter process it.

One other option is collect the Idocs in R3 and send to xi.

Hey

as u have a IDOC to File scenario,u can schedule batch jobs in SM36 to run after every 1 hr.this will make sure that IDOC's are pushed out of R/3 and XI can process them and send to the receiver file

thanx
