[former_member588853]

Hi guys,

A POS file with fields Header- Date, Time -

---

ITEM- Barcode, Quantity sold, Amount received and discount is been posted in application server.

Now I need to Pick up this file and use Idocs and transfer them into SAP Is retail system..

The Client needs a Standard POS interface to do both Inbound and Outbound process in retail system.

Can somebody let me know the solution and give me the standard interface which picks up the file and posts the POS data into SAP.

If no standard interface , please let me know the exact Idocs to use also the Mappings and the process how to post the file into SAP Retail.

Please help me out..

Hi,

if you are using POSDM then you can import standrad content ( storeconnecivity2.0) from service market place and GM POS content

for customize scenario you can do message mapping from flat file to WPUUMS01 IDOC

Thanks for the reply amit..

I am not clear with what you re saying.. I got a functional spec to work on and I have no Idea..

I have given a falt file in Application server with

Header- Date, Time -

---

ITEM- Barcode, Quantity sold, Amount received and discount.

I thought of using IDOCtype and an inbound interface function module for WPUUMS01 and can generate an indoc.

but client needs an Standard interface for both inbound and outbound.

I am confused if there is any standarad interface which pick up the file and generate IDOC

This is given in the Spec:

Description of Business Process Interface will Support

Interface will retrieve the data fror the LOGISOFT POS system. POS system will output all essential information to generate invoices in the SAP system and the file field names.

Can you please help me out, what is store connectivity 2.0

ALSO some general information

SAP IS Retail as backend ERP and Triversity Suite as front-end POS and In-Store Solution. SAP provides a set of standard functionality whereby you can integrate Triversity with ISR via XI. The components involved are: IS-R, SAP XI, Transnet, Triversity POS Suite Components and POS DM.

In ISR-to-Triversity communication, there are two aspects:

1. Outbound: Data is sent from ISR to Triversity. The type of data transferred is article information, prices, EAN, tax codes, Merchandise Categories, Promotion, Special Price Off conditions, Discounts and Bonus Buys. The data flow is as follows:

a. IDoc is triggered from IS Retail (Either manually or by ALE Change Pointer Analysis)

b. IDoc reaches XI and is transformed to transformed to Triversity format ASCII files

c. XI dumps the files in Transnet staging server directory by logging in to the Transnet FTP server as a client

d. Stores pick up the data files from Transnet server by logging in through a client

2. Inbound: Transactional data from Triversity is posted into IS-R. POS DM works as a sales audit component in here. Type of data transferred are: Financial Transactions, Sales Log - Receipt Based (To BIW), Sales Totals (To IS-R), Payment Methods etc. The Process Flow is as follows:

a. During Day-End, Triversity generates ASCII files, which are put into Transnet staging server folder.

b. XI logs in to the Transnet server and picks up these files

c. XI posts these data to POS DM via a RFC call

d. IS-R Master data is collected beforehand in POS DM. Based on this master data and certain validation rules, POS DM performs sales audit.

e. From POS DM, IDocs for Payment Method, Sales Totals, Financial Transactions, Goods Movements etc are triggered towards IS-R.

Standard XI Integration Design content is available in SAP Service Marketplace to set up this scenario. Please find some useful links for the scenarios:

POS Integration Configuration Guide For XI - Here you will find XI Related Configuration

Triversity Transactionware GM 9.5 Technical Reference Guide - Here you will find all the file formats supported by Triversity and Information related to value mapping in XI

Please let me know

Hi Nazeer,

if your client is using SAP Triversity Suite as front-end POS and In-Store Solution then for this application SAP provide standard content but I think your client is using other third party POS application in store (LOGISOFT POS system) ...

then intergration scenario like --

outbound -- IDOC(SAP) - XI(middleware hare you can convert IDOC into flat file )--- flat file(POS store system)

Inbound -- POS store system(flat file)---- XI (message mapping flat file to IDOC) ---SAP (IDOCs coem from XI to SAP)

for this third party appliaction (LOGISOFT POS system) SAP not provide any standrad content for this integration you have to develop all inbound and outbound scenario. (you can use standrad content only for outbound )

second option - import standrad content then modify it according to client requrement ..

In standrad inbound scenario -- like POS system sent Tlog file to XI then XI to POS DM (BI add on) then BI to SAP IS retail

Thanks for the reply amit.

Okay I am going to develop and use a standard Inbound funtion module to generate IDOCS.

Can you let me know which IDOC can for this flat file to post data and generate an IDOC?

We have BARCODE , quantity sold , amount received and Discount in the incomming flat file to the IS retail..

Please let me know the IDOC type to use and if possible the inbound +Functiion module..

And you mentioned there is some standard content which SAP has provided for Triversity suite.. Please let me know the standard content for inbound and outbound..

Hi,

You can use WPUUMS01 IDOC type and you can see FM against this IDOC type in table EDIFCT

but i think for this IDOC barcode is not requried ,, for processing of this IDOC you can use RBDAPP01 program
