XI Technical and Business System Definition For MDM 2.0

[Former Member]

Hi,

We're trying to define the XI technical and business system definitions for our MDM 2.0 installation to work with SRM 5.0 and PI 7.0.

In the documentation we have we can't find reference to what type of a technical and business system to define. Should they be abap/java/standalone/3rd party?

Does anyone have any install scripts of what they did?

Regards,

Jerry Martinek

You can set it as third party and it will work fine. Because MDM isn't built on the wed application server like the majority of the netweaver apps, it's basically treated like a third party system as far as integration is concerned. Hence you send and receive XML documents to PI and convert them into IDocs to send to R/3
