An ERP connect to multiple PIs

[former_member599943]

Hi experts,

In curious, I would like to know the scenario of 1 ERP connected to multiple PIs (include both incoming and outgoing), is it possible?

Thank you.

Yes. You can configure several RFC destinations / ports in both systems (ERP and PI).

There might be some problems when you need to maintain SLD information in the ERP (e.g. for sending German VAT declarations). There you will have to decide for one SLD.

But normal IDoc or RFC traffic is no problem.

Answer would depend upon the type of communication required.

For Idocs and RFCs, yes.

For abap proxy, you need ABAP 7.0 SP14+ or Application Server ABAP 7.1 and PI 7.1.

Thanks all.

For example, would like implement multiple PIs for different purpose or modules.

1. More on ABAP Proxy client and server. (Is it possible to communicate to multiple PIs?)

2. tRFC call. (Trigger tRFC to send request from ERP, or response to requestor?)

3. IDoc (Process Incoming Idoc from different PIs)

Thank you.

You can connect ERP two multiple PI systems for all scenarios except client ABAP proxy.

Latter will come with future release.

Dear Weng,

The following blog will give some idea on this one ERP to many PI sytem connection details and some of it's PROs and CONs.

I have already mentioned the limitations with ABAP Proxy. You may find it mentioned in this document as well.

This is not a good landscape design, any middleware can be bring in for making all the interface centrally ...

same way SAP PI should be used, please provide your requirement (why you required to connect with multiple PI?)
