Need clarification while using WE19 tool

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I have gone through the forums and Blogs but still I am not convinced and need your inputs.

Scenario is IDOC to File .

In we19,We have Sender and Recipient information to be filled in EDIDC record.

1.The sender Partner # and Partner Type is mandatory. Why sender port information is not mandatory? If not mandatory will the system take any default value?

2.If it takes the default value,the Port information will be taken from R/3 or XI system?

2. In Receiver Information for the Port, Partner# and Partner Type, We need to give the configured names from R/3 or XI system and need clarifiaction for the same for Sender Information also.

Please provide your inputs.

Regards

Hi Dheepa,

1.The sender Partner # and Partner Type is mandatory. Why sender port information is not mandatory? If not mandatory will the system take any default value?

If receiver port is available,then it will use that.Port is not mandatory as it uses the already existing port (is available for R/3 to XI then it will use that same port),and will send the idoc.

2.If it takes the default value,the Port information will be taken from R/3 or XI system?

If R/3 Port is available it will take from that else from XI

2. In Receiver Information for the Port, Partner# and Partner Type, We need to give the configured names from R/3 or XI system and need clarifiaction for the same for Sender Information also.

For Receiver - XI

Sender - R/3.

Reward points if this helps

Hi,

If you observe Sender Port also we shld provide here

2. In Receiver Information for the Port, Partner# and Partner Type, We need to give the configured names from R/3 or XI system and need clarifiaction for the same for Sender Information also.

Here we have to give the sender Port as the port that is created in XI towards R/3( SAP <SID>), why because we through this port only we wil send the Idoc from R/3 to XI.

In the receiver also the same only,

Hi Seshagiri,

Thanks for your reply.

But I have tried sending IDOCs from R/3 to XI without giving the sender Port information.The IDOCs were successfully created in R/3 and sent to XI.

I wanted to know how the system recognizes and from where it is taking the information even though I did not configure the port.

2. In Receiver Information for the Port, Partner# and Partner Type, We need to give the configured names from R/3 or XI system and need clarifiaction for the same for Sender Information also.

>>>>Here we have to give the sender Port as the port that is created in XI towards R/3( SAP <SID>), why because we through this port only we wil send the Idoc from R/3 to XI.

In the receiver also the same only,

Also I am not clear for the reply given for the second question.

According to my understanding,

For sender information: Port,Partner no, Partner type which is configured in XI.

Recipient information: Port,Partner no,Partner Type which is configured in R/3.

Please let me know if my understanding is correct .

> It will use the existing default port, to send the information to XI. You need to specify the receiver port while sedning the IDOC, from that system identifies the default sender port and process the IDOC to push to XI.

2. For maintaining the Prot definations, its standard format followed as SAP <SID>, for e.g. IDE800 , this indicates the port is of SAP landscape IDE and the client is 800. If the organization have multiple SAP landscapes this convention is easy to maintain.

You use the port maintenance in the IDoc adapter to establish an RFC connection to the system that contains the metadata that the IDoc adapter requires to convert IDocs (Intermediate Documents) that have been sent to it to IDoc XML format. This system is defined by the sender port and the client in the IDoc control record. It is either the sender SAP system or an SAP reference system.

Hi Swarup,

Thanks for your reply and I have also gone through the links which you have mentioned.

>>>>> It will use the existing default port, to send the information to XI. You need to specify the receiver port while sending the IDOC, from that system identifies the default sender port and process the IDOC to push to XI.

So the Existing sender default Port = SAP <SID> ,i.e if System ID is SSI then the port will be SAPSSI.

If the existing default Port = SAPSSI,the is this the XI port pointing towards R/3 or R/3 Port pointing towards XI?

Please clarify.
