Communication Channels : Receiver, Sender ?

[Former Member]

Hi all,

sometimes I'm confusing a receiver or a sender communication channel. I was told to use receiver when XI receives, and sender when XI sends. But it's not so clear.

Does anyone have some tips ?

Thx to all.

Hi elliot,

sender communication channel is used when u r sending to XI

receiver communication channel is used when u r sending From xi.

FIle ->XI->R/3

sender CC->XI->Receiver CC

File-(Sender CC(Sender Adapter(FILE))-XI-(ReceiverCC(Reciever Adapter(RFC)))-R/3

Regards

BILL

Hi Elliot,

You use the Sender for the system that sends the message, system that execute the message, and receiver in system that receive the data.

for example.

I have a ECC with RFC with developer the purchase order, and this PO is input the legacy system.

The ECC is Sender and Legacy system is receiver.

when I create the Interface Message, I choose the Inbound and Outbound message, and Sync or Async message.

Inbound or Outbound I See by Legacy system.

When OUT to the Legacy, the message is Outbound.

When IN to the Legacy, the message is Inbound.

When I need to the response, I use the Sync message.

When I don´t need the response, I use the Async Message.

For example.

ECC/RFC -> XI -> LEGACY

the init of the message is in ECC, I executed the RFC, and the data input the LEGACY.

I Need a communication channel SENDER (RFC Adapter).

I Need a communication channel RECEIVER (JDBC Adapter - for example).

and the interface message, the message is INBOUND Async.

you use sender CC when sending message to XI,ie,XI is reciever.

similarly you use receiver CC when receiving message from XI(to the receiving system) ie,XI is sender here.
