Hi

Follow below steps

1. first create logical system, assign logical system to client and RFC destination at R3 end

2. create partner profile and configure inbound for idoc

3. create idx1 & idx2 configuration in xi

4. Under SLD create product, component, technical (type should be web as abap) and business systems (type should be web as abap)

5. Import component(from SLD) to IR. Under component create namesapce, under namespace create data type and message type and message interface for source

6. import idoc from r3 under component

7. create message mapping & interface mapping

8. Active scenario

Note: idoc no need message type & message interface

8. under ID create scenario and under business sysem option import business system from SLD

9. under same business system take FILE(SENDER) and IDOC (RECEIVER) and configure channels accordingly

10. configure receiver determination and interface determination

11. configure sender agreement and receiver agreement.

12. active scenario

13. past the file in source folder (first check with xml source file, after that check with fcc)

goto SXMB_MONI and check the interface, if it is black flag u can get idoc in R3 and can see through we02 transaction
