Need information on how to create Idoc Inbound Interfaces for Business Sys

[Former Member]

Hi,

I'm losing it.

Can anyone point me to some documentation or an example of how to create inbound interfaces for Business Systems in PI 7.1.

Here's the scenario

I'm working on a B2B integration process which sends inbound idocs to an ECC 6.0 system.

I've created the Business System communication component but under the Inbound Interfaces it is blank.

I want to have MBGMCR.MGBMCR03 as an inbound interface.

But I forget how to get it there.

For Business components you can just add the inbound interface.

I've already defined the Business System in the SLD pointed it to the correct Tech System, imported the idoc definitions in the Enterprise Service Builder and set up IDX1, IDX2 to ensure the metadata exists in PI.

But for Business systems the hep says that it's got to come from the SLD.

Outbound/Inbound Interfaces

For each business system, the interfaces that are installed on the business system are also entered in the SLD. These interfaces are displayed in this frame. You cannot add any other interfaces.

I know I've done this before, but I can't remember how.

Cheers,

John

Hi all,

Thanks for your responses.

Although neither response was the fix I was after, both were helpful and I've awarded points.

The issue was that I have created a new Software product and component which I use for Importing the Idoc definitions in the Enterprise Service Builder.

This product had to be added to my technical system and then checked as active in the Business System.

Thanks again for all your help.

Cheers,

Hi John,

"I've created the Business System communication component but under the Inbound Interfaces it is blank."

"I've already defined the Business System in the SLD pointed it to the correct Tech System, imported the idoc definitions in the"

These are the necessary stepts to get the inbound interfces in to ID while configuration.

Solution:

Just add software component SAP ECC 6.0 or earlier version to your Technical system (SAP ECC) --> Installed Softwares(Tab) and also dont forget to click the check box corresponding to SWC in Business System --> Installed Softwares tab.

This should solve your issue.
