Hi XI community,
Is there any "rule of thumb" when choosing the type of interface to interact with a SAP system? i.e. IDOC's, BAPI's, RFC functions or ABAP Proxies.
Normally I apply the following order, all based on availability:
ABAP Proxies (if provided by SAP as business content)
IDOC's
BAPI
Custom made ABAP proxies
RFC custom functions
The above list can be explained as follows; first look for out of the box provided business content (ABAP proxies, etc..), if no available then go for IDOCS and so on...
Please feel free to share with me your ideas, preferences and arguments if you follow any other order than the one I've described here.
Cheers, Roberto
Hi Roberto,
We use IDocs in case of Asynchronous Communication.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ab/bdb13b00ae793be10000000a11402f/content.htm
RFCs for Synchronous Communication.

ABAP Proxies when two Web AS >= 6.40 are communicating.

Hi Roberto,
You can use diffrent receivers with diffrent communication Channels.
Like IDOC, RFC/BAPI or Proxy.
And in a Business Procces... when an exception occured you have a exception Branch where you have a new Send step with your next Receiver.
Thats it
Never Try this ... but its a nice Idea
Regards,
Robin
