Hello..

I have a question for all of u...

I have a RFC function module which will genarate XML data as a file....

Is there any possibulity that i can use that function module in XI and pass it to URL (web services).

And can we give acknowledgement for this message back to SAP using XI?

Yes certainly can. But unless there is a strong business case to do this, I would not suggest to initiate a call from XI ABAP stack itself.

Basically i need to send XML data to URL (web services).The XML data is genareted by RFC function module in SAP.

(When ever the master data chenge occures this function module will be triggered and it genarates XML data.....)

With SAP you dont have to generate XML data using an RFC, if you use RFC adapter it will take care of converting data into XML message (which XI understands) then use a SOAP adapter to post it to a web service.

Hello Thanks for the reply..

I think if use any IDOC concept then it will lead to big development...like creating idoc types..and function module..

In order to avoid that can i use this function module which is already exists?

Hello Anu,

All you have to do is to use the Sender RFC to collect the data from R/3 system in XML format and then process in XI and use the Receiver SOAP Adapter to make a web service call to the receiving system. Its a very common XI related scenario. You do not have to convert the data from RFC to XML thats what the Adapter is for.

Hope this helps.
