Hi Santosh,

If u do FILE->BPM->(FILE & R/3) it will be better i guess.

what i mean is u will send a file from one location to another location using BPM.

u have to design ur BPM in such a way that... once the file is posted in the TARGET location ..BAPI/RFC will take the required i/p from the file and post the data into R/3.

You may use two scenarios file->file and again file->RFC.

Hi,

Yours is Asynchronous scenario as i understood...

can u pls explain me why r u using BPM?

one more suggestion,

After your file has reached target place u hv to develop one more simple file-xi-RFC scenario, which will trigger reqd RFC and post data to R/3..

and if it is not necessary to post file to another location, yours scenario can be simple File-XI-RFC..

Give point if u find it useful!!

Hi Santosh,

As understood you are sending a file which wil have input parameter for RFC/BAPI and it RFC/BAPI will send response and u are sending response back as file.

For this u will make BPM with synchronous send step.

hope this weblog will help u.
