I have an IDOc going from R/3 to XI to differentR/3 reciever system

I want to know that do I nedd to do sm59 RFC DEstn pointing to XI server

Also in the partner profile the Idoc has to be in inbound parametrs.

Also how do I check in the partener profile we20 that what is the corresponding port and RFc DEstn that I have made earlier for the partner prof.

Plz answer

Thanx

Hi,

These will be the Configurations needed in your R3,

1. SM 59 - Create an RFC destination for your XI .

2. We21 -- Create a port for XI

3. We 20 -- Create a partner profile entry for the Outbound IDOCs for XI.

Configuration on XI

1. IDX2 - Import IDOC metadata.

For eg : Lets assume the R/3 system and Xi system are QZA and X7A.

In XI :

Step 1 : In SALE Tcode :

a)Create Logical systems for R/3 and XI.

EG : (QZACLNT100) and (X7ACLNT100).

b) Assign the logical system of XI to Client.(X7ACLNT100)

Both the above options u can find in SALE transaction under SENDING and RECEIVING SYSTEMS tab

Step 2 : In SM59 create RFC destination in XI pointing to R/3(i.e IP address of R/3) (This RFC Destination name shd be same as the Sender LS name)=> QZACLNT100 is my RFC destination.

Step 3: Create the PORT in XI for the Sender system and assign the RFC destination.

In R/3 :

Step 1:

In SALE Tcode :

a) Create Logical systems for R/3 and XI for

b) Assign the logical system of R/3 to Client.(QZACLNT100)

Step 2 : In SM59 create RFC destination in R/3 pointing to XI(i.e IP address of XI) (This RFC Destination name shd be same as the Receiver LS name)=> X7ACLNT100 is my RFC destination.

Step 3: In SALE Tcode under Modelling and Implementing Bussiness Processes-> maintain Disribution Model and Distribute Views.

a)Click on that ,it shall take to Tcode BD64 ,where u can create a Distribution Model.

b)Once you create that ADD MESSAGE type(You have the button at the top), there it shall ask for Receiver and Sender LS and Message type.

c)In Menu Bar EDIT->Generate Partner Profile.

Click on that and press Execute .

This shall create 2 partner profile X7ACLNT100 and QZACLNT100 ,X7ACLNT100(this is the partner number for QZA system) shall have the outbound parameter as CREMAS, and QZACLNT100 is created with no parameters ,you need not worry .

d) Click EDIT->MODEL VIEW->Distribute.

This shall distribute the model and you can see the distribution mode aslo getting created in XI system.

This configuration shall surely help u out as it worked out for me.

Configurations required for IDocs in R/3

In your XI system, you need to do the following.

1. Create a RFC destination to your R/3 system

2. Create a port in IDX1 of your XI system and use the RFC destination in step1.

3. Try importing a idoc metadata thru idx2 transaction to check whether the configuration is correct.

4. In your SLD configure the technical system and business system. The technical system should hold the logical system name you have in your R/3 system client.

5. Import the business system and you can use it in your configuration scenario.

Please also refer below links for details.

Hi,

Yes yo need to do the ALE settings or configuration for the same.

Refer the weblog which helps u in configuraing the R3 settings and Xi settings.:

ALE configuration for pushing idocs from SAP to XI

/people/swaroopa.vishwanath/blog/2007/01/22/ale-configuration-for-pushing-idocs-from-sap-to-xi

IDOC testing using WE19

/people/sameer.shadab/blog/2005/07/25/reposting-idocs-instead-of-recreating--for-testing-purpose-xi

Please follow the below process for configuration:

File To IDOC - Part1 (SLD and Design):

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/profile/2007/05/11/fileToIDOC&

File To IDOC - Part2 (Configuration):

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/profile/2007/05/11/fileToIDOC-Part3(StepsrequiredinXIandR3)&

Do the following settings:

Pre-requisites for Inbound IDoc to R/3 from PI:

Configuration required at Xi side:

Go to IDX1: configure the port.

Go to IDX2: load the DOC metadata.

Go to SM59: Create RFC destination which points to R3 system this is require in the case where your IDOC is sent to R 3 system

Configiration required at R3 side:

Maintain Logical System for PI (SALE transaction):

Maintain Partner Profile for XI system(WE20):

Pre-requisites for Outbound IDoc from R/3 to PI:

Configurations required in R/3:

Maintain Logical System (SALE)

Define RFC Destination (SM59) which points to PI system

Maintain Port (WE21)

Maintain partner profile. (WE20):

Maintain Distribution Model (BD64):

If u r passing the same idoc strucutre to other R3 system then u can go for IDOC tunneling

Hi Pankaj,

Configuration Steps for Idoc to File Scenario

This is complete step by step document for configuring the idoc to file scenario along with ALE Settings

*************************************************************************************************************************

To Configure the IDOC TO FILE SCENARIO, SETTINGS IN SAP-XI

***********************************************************************************************************************

STEP 1:ALE SETTINGS IN SAP-XI

We need to do the following settings in XI
