Hi,

Business System :

1. Business systems are logical systems, which function as senders or receivers within XI. Business systems can be SAP systems or third-party systems. Depending on the associated technical system.

2. Business Systems should be mandatory used when dealing with Idoc's and Proxies .

Business Service:

1. Business Service requires manual adding on Inbound and Outbound Interfaces, Business Systems do not.

2. Business Services are maintained across environments and so, their names cannot be changed. Business Systems names can be changed across environments by providing SLD level transport targets.

3.In the Business Services we cannot maintain the Group and Targets in SLD. For Ease in transporting your ID/Configuration objects Groups and Targets are used in SLD for Business Systems.

4.Business Service has no SLD Entries and No Assigned Products and SWCV's

A business system is a way of specifying a service in the Integration Directory more precisely

Logical Systems

We define all communication in ALE as links between logical systems. A logical system is a system containing applications that are coordinated to work with one set of data. A logical system can be:

A specific client on a specific SAP system

A non-SAP system

A file-based interface

Since logical systems are the basis of all ALE configurations, the ability to define them should be restricted to as few people as possible

In the business service go to the menu Business Service --> Adapter Specific Identifiers and add the Logical System name

.
