Using PI 7.0 to handle moving a PDF document into a SOAP Message & sending

104 Views

Here is our situation. We have the business writing all invoices for a day out of SAP to disk formatted as a PDF document; meaning, if the file is FTP'd from the disk of SAP to an NT server inside our firewall it is recognised as a PDF by Windows and Adobe.

After we read the PDF, I need to add it as the payload to a SOAP message that will be sent to the web service of a partner out side our firewall. They will extract the PDF from the SOAP Message and print the invoices... stuff the envelopes ... and post them.

I have been trying to use the file adapter to "pick up" the PDF and the SOAP adapter to send... Obviously, it is not working and I need some assistance. I am new to XI, so any advice will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Rich
