Deactivation of Http / URL connection in SAP BC 4.7 System

[Former Member]

Hi Folks,

Background: One of our vendors send their invoices to our BC server through http route. We have provided them with a URL into which they login and send xml invoices via http connection.

Requirement: The vendor will no more the invoices into our BC system because he has opted for some other channel. We now need to disable the http route in the BC system. The BC system frontend is a web server(webpage) which in turn connects to the BC system Developer(where mapping is carried out). We checked the BC system Developer as well as the BC Web Server for the URL but could not find anywhere.

We came to know that the http connection/URL is in the form of a service in the BC system. As there are hundreds of services in the BC system we could not recognize the exact service. Please suggest as to how to disable the http connection/URL in the BC system.

Version Deatils:

SAPBC 4.7

OS - Windows 2003

Thanks & Regards,

Please post the original BC URL which you gave to the provider. You can derive the used BC service from that URL easily.

Probably the vendor was calling the standard ALE InboundProcess service. In this case, you can simply disable or delete the corresponding routing rule in BC. Do not delete the service, otherwise you will not be able to receive any XML-Idocs anymore via HTTP !

Hi Vinod,

>>We checked the BC system Developer as well as the BC Web Server for the URL but could not find anywhere.

You need to check the url in the form action of the web page then it will be easier to locate it in the BC system

Can you paste the url here?

Hi Suraj,

Thanks for your prompt response.

We could not find Form Action of web page to identify the URL as you said. Can you please brief us more details where we can find the form action.

Many Thanks...

Hi Vinod,

Do you have access to the webservice/webpage? Can you open it in a browser and see its source code? try to find something which looks like this:

http://servername:port/invoke/folder.subFolder.subsubFolder/serviceName

your keyword to search will be invoke. Then you will come to the folder and the service name
