Configuring settings for proxy scenario.

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I have SAP R/3 and XI system, need to execute a proxy scenario.

What all configuration settings have to be done for the proxy part in both XI and SAP system.

Please help with links to some good blogs.

Thanks,

Dear all,

I have gone through all the blogs,

I want the config settings, i mean the RFC destinations etc to be set both in XI and SAP for executing this scenario.

thanks,

Hi Younus,

I guess u r looking 4 this.(this is actually 4 activating abap proxy.....) but go thro' it nicely..u will the necessary thing are given for connection XI and R/3....(check below of the blog)

Hi Younus Mohd ,

Proxy generation converts non-language-specific interface descriptions in WSDL into executable interfaces known as Proxies.

Depending on the target programming language, you choose one of the following:1. Java Proxies. or 2. ABAP Proxies.

We can interface to XI through proxies. From WAS 6.20, proxy generation feature enables application systems to communicate with XI using proxies. Proxy generation enables you to create proxies in application systems. Proxies encapsulate the creation or parsing of XML messages and the communication with the relevant runtime components required to send or receive the messages.

There are two types of Proxies.

1. Java Proxies.

2. ABAP Proxies.

Java proxies are used when java applications needs to send and receive data and ABAP proxies are used when ABAP applications needs to send and receive data.

Applications need the following proxy components to use the SAP Exchange Infrastructure directly and without adapters.

Proxy Framework

Proxy Generator

Proxy Runtime

Proxy Framework

The Proxy Framework consists of the Proxy Generator and the Proxy Runtime. The Proxy Framework for ABAP (generator and runtime) is part of the SAP Web Application Server and no specific installation is needed.

Proxy Generator for Java

The Proxy Generator for Java is used to generate proxies (Java Classes) for application programming. It makes use of the Integration Repository which contains all interface definitions.

Java Proxy Runtime

The Proxy Runtime for Java is mandatory for all Java programs to exchange messages with the SAP Integration Server. In doing so the proxy runtime converts the used java classes into XML messages. These XML messages are sent to the Integration Server using http protocol.

These r the following web-sites which give u step by step solution using proxy:

Hi Younus,

Just for your info:

1. Proxies can be a server proxy or client proxy. In our scenarios we require proxies to send or upload the data from/into SAP system.

2. One more thing proxies can be used if your WAS ≥ 6.2.

3. Use Tcode SPROXY into R/3 system for proxy use.

4. To send the data from R/3 system we use OUTBOUND PROXY. In Outbound proxy you will simply write an abap code to fetch the data from R/3 tables and then send it to XI. Below is the sample code to send the data from R/3 to XI.

REPORT zblog_abap_proxy.

DATA prxy TYPE REF TO zblogco_proxy_interface_ob.

*

CREATE OBJECT prxy.

DATA it TYPE zblogemp_profile_msg.

TRY.

it-emp_profile_msg-emp_name = 'Sarvesh'.

it-emp_profile_msg-empno = '01212'.

it-emp_profile_msg-DEPARTMENT_NAME = 'NetWeaver'.

CALL METHOD prxy->execute_asynchronous

EXPORTING

output = it.

commit work.

CATCH cx_ai_system_fault .

DATA fault TYPE REF TO cx_ai_system_fault .

CREATE OBJECT fault.

WRITE 😕 fault->errortext.

ENDTRY.

Receiver adapter configurations should be done in the integration directory and the necessary sender/receiver binding should be appropriately configured. We need not do any sender adapter configurations as we are using proxies.

5. To receive data into R/3 system we use INBOUND PROXY. In this case data is picked up by XI and send it to R/3 system via XI adapter into proxy class. Inside the inbound proxy we careate an internal table to take the data from XI and then simply by using the ABAP code we update the data inot R/3 table. BAPI can also be used inside the proxy to update the data into r/3.

I hope this will clear few doubts in proxy.

Just go through these links:

You will find everything here.

Proxy is a methos of the class that you have created for your outbound interface.

In code of proxy you will fill data in this structure and send it across to XI.

https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/advancedsearch?cat=sdn_all&query=abap+proxy&adv=false&sortby=cm_rnd_...

For your case...you have to create client proxy..

Hi,

There are two Types of proxies which can be done by ABAP or JAVA

‘client’ proxy is used by an application to send messages outside of the system it resides in (normally to the IS in this context).

‘server’ proxy is used by an application to receive messages from sources outside itself (again, normally the IS in this context).

Hi,

Proxy Generation- For ABAP and Java proxy, create a Message Interface and then generate a proxy for that message interface.
