Hi,
I have a scenario where manual entry data will be captured via an MII frontend and then upload this data to SAP.
he manual entry screens also needs to have some information that it retrieves from SAP to make ceratain selection criterias i.e. the plant description and ID, BOM etc.
Now this is all fine to do this via JCO calls, BAPI's and RFCs. But the catch here is is that the SAP server is in a remote location and bandwidth restrictions apply which means the SAP server is not always available. Thus we need to store the SAP required information and the manually entered data locally and batch download or upload from SAP on a scheduled basis.
Now my question is has some one done this type of scenatio before and what would be the best approach.
a. Do we create a local DB and store the captured information and download the required SAP info and also store it in the local DB
b. Is there a caching meganism to store the required SAP data locally and queue the manual entered data in the MII message queue to be processed to upload to SAP ?
any suggestions and ideas ?
