ALE Configurations?

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Currently i'm working on the following requirements. we are using TIBCO system as a middleware tool and it will ceate an IDOC which needs to be directed to R/3 system. As we have already imported the IDOC to the TIBCO system and then it will fetch the data from non-SAP system and creates the IDOC and sends it to R/3 system? I've done the following ALE configurations but got the error message as 56..."Partner profile is not define".

I've done the following ALE configurations at R/3 side.

1. Created a logical system and RFC destination for TIBCO.

2. created a TRFC port.

3. Create a Partner profile and linked the TRFC port.

4. posted an IDOC from WE19.

but when i checked the status of IDOC in WE02 its displaying an warning message with status code 56 "Partner profile is not define". and i think no need to do any ALE Configuration at sender side since the sender system is TIBCO.

pls correct me if i'm wrong. as one of my colleage suugested me to create FIle port instead of TRFC port?

regards

Hi Abdul,

For sending the data from XI to R3 system

We follow the following configurations

1) Define the RFC destination which points to R3 system in XI.

2) Define the port in XI

At R3 end

1) Define logical system of XI

2) Assign the client

3) Define the prot

4) Create the aprtner profile.

so accordinly u need to configure the thing at TIBCO end as well as R3 end.

Copy and paste the link in browser it will opend.

Hi,

From ur below message it seems that u r getting the IDOC at R3 end but u r getting an error saying that partner profile is not maintained properly.

Check the partner profile for TIBCO system in R3 system and check the message type it should be inbound.

Ur reply:

but when i checked the status of IDOC in WE02 its displaying an warning message with status code 56 "Partner profile is not define". and i think no need to do any ALE Configuration at sender side since the sender system is TIBCO.

refer the link which is given by Xi experts. copy and paste the link on browser for configuration.
