Hi,

SAP's definition for Abstrace message interface and how it can be used:

<i>Interface for which no direction is defined initially.

An abstract message interface has no implementation in an application system. You cannot generate a proxy for this interface type. You use abstract interfaces in business processes, for example, to receive or send messages from application systems. You can use the same abstract interface to receive or to send.</i>

Hi Rajesh,

you use abstract messages when you define interfaces in

BPM

abstract messages are netiher outbound nor inbound

that's why they can be used in send step or receive step

you can also take a look at this definition:

"Interface for which no direction is defined initially.

An abstract message interface has no implementation in an

application system. You <b>cannot generate a proxy</b> for this

interface type. You use abstract interfaces in business

processes, for example, to receive or send messages from

application systems. You can use the same abstract

interface to receive or to send."
