Hi,

OFTP ADAPTER:

The OFTP Adapter is embedded in SAP XI. It enables communication between SAP XI and integrated OFTP partners via ODETTE File Transfer Protocol. Partners may be connected either via TCP/IP or ISDN, or optionally X.31.

Data is sent directly to and received from the SAP XI system via OFTP. The data is centrally controlled and managed in SAP XI, and the logging and monitoring also occur via SAP XI.

The OFTP Adapter is based on the SAP XI Adapter Framework 3.0 and on the SUN JCA 1.0 specification.

1.The SEEBURGER OFTP Adapter is responsible for transmitting files according to the Odette File Transfer Protocol.

2.This protocol is commonly used in Business-to-Business scenarios; especially in the automotive industry.

3.The ODETTE File Transfer Protocol (OFTP) was defined by the European automotive industry in 1986 to extend the traditional file-transfer capabilities of FTP to support Just In Time operations.

4.OFTP supports end-to-end acknowledgments, binding of EDIFACT messages and runs on top of ISDN connections Odette Stands for Organization for Data Exchange by Tele Transmission in Europe.

Thanks
