FileSys with PCK Vs R/3 with XI

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I'm a learner in XI. I have some doubts about PCK.

In the scenario "FileSys with PCK --> R/3 with XI", for posting PO from FileSys to R/3,

- the PCK receive the source XML msg through File Adapter and it will send the msg to XI Box through XI adapter.

- the XI will receive the msg through XI adapter and post into R/3 through IDOC adapter.

a) Interface mapping will not be there in PCK. If I am right, what transformation takes place for the source XML msg after the PCK receives it.

b) What exactly the XI adapter do in this scenario.

Please clarify me.

Thank you.

iam not usre y again using tranforamtion here.

>> I mean to ask, after the File adapter of PCK receives the XML msg and before the msg reaches the XI Server, will any changes happens to the msg? If nothing happens, why to use PCK? We can directly connect the FileSys to XI Server, right?
