sender idocs

I just wanted to clarify the process for Idocs on the sender side. I am aware that alot of the configuration for Idocs do not occur in the integration builder so I just wanted to clarify what has to be done....

As I understand it:

1: SM59 in the Sender r/3 System to allow the r/3 system to send the Idoc to XI

2: IDX1 in the Sender r/3 System to allow r/3 to do what???????

3: Partner Profiles in the R/3 System so that R/3 knows who XI is...

Could you please let me know if the above is correct in order and also in what each step is upposed to achieve.

Please also let me know if anything needs to be configured on the ABAP Stack for XI...

Hi,

First to send an IDoc from External R3 to XI , we should establish connection between these two, connection means data transmit through RFC protocol,

So the IDoc sending from R3 through R3 port to XI RFC destination through XI port.

Here is Sender side IDoc adapter is resides on Integration Server so that it directly sends to Integration server.

To do this communication. we need to do in

R3 Side.

RFC destnation SM59,

port WE21,

partner profile WE20 are to be created and distribution model BD64 also to be congifured.

In XI Side.

RFC destination by SM59,

Port by IDX1,

IDX2 metada repository

1.SM59 is to define RFC destination from R3 to XI. Similarly we can defince RFC destination from XI to R3 of Sender.

2.IDX1 is to definr port in R3 of XI.

3.Partner profile is EDI system to identify receiver uniquely by logical system partner number and partner type.

Please see the following links for more details.

Hi,

for R/3 configuration look to the very good blog: <a href="/people/swaroopa.vishwanath/blog/2007/01/22/ale-configuration-for-pushing-idocs-from-sap-to-xi configuration for pushing idocs from SAP to XI</a>. At XI you need only a SM59 destination a IDX1 port.

Michal,

I wanted to buy your Book but it takes 7 days to be delivered...

If I buy it now then while im waiting for it to arrive could you email me an electronic copy?

The reason is I would like the book but I sort of need theser answers ASAP....

Does your book cover all aspects if your are sending or receiving Idocs?

basically to send / receive IDOCs these are the conf. involved;

In XI

SM59 - R3 connection pointing to R3

IDX1 - define the port with the above dest. >>><i>2: IDX1 in the Sender r/3 System to allow r/3 to do what???????</i>

In R3

SM59 - R3 connection pointing to XI

WE21 - define the port with the above dest.

WE20 - Partner profile type outbound/Inbound

Shabarish,

So you are saying that whether I am sending IDOCs or Receiving them then the following always needs to be congigured... It doesnt make a differnece if I am sending or Receiving.... XI always needs these configurations and the Sender or Receiver R/3 system will always need those configurations and nothing else...

In XI

SM59 - R3 connection pointing to R3

IDX1 - define the port with the above dest. >>>2: IDX1 in the Sender r/3 System to allow r/3 to do what???????

In R3

SM59 - R3 connection pointing to XI

WE21 - define the port with the above dest.

WE20 - Partner profile type outbound/Inbound

your IDOC sending and recv. will depend on its partner profile created ie outbound or inbound. >>><i>WE20 - Partner profile type outbound/Inbound </i>
