Hi Mithun,

I think you are aware of the fact that SAPXI system doesnt understand the EDI messages directly.....So in u r case u need to first tranform EDI data into XML format in whcih the XI can understand...........So for EDI -to->XML...u need SEEBURGER (BIC Design mapper tool do define the mapping between EDI and XML) by which u can convert the message into XML.

And in XI system u can convert the tranformed XML into IDOC using mapping editor.............

So u cant directly convert the EDI messages into idoc in XI....

hi sai ganesh,

i know that XI cannot understand EDI. But i have a 3rd party tool called CONVERSION AGENT by ItemFeild which i can deploy in XI.

This tool helps me convert the EDI to XML format. But my question is if i can get documents for converting ANSIX12 fromat into XML because i have found a weblog which shows the conversion of EDIFACT.
