Monitoring interfaces for end business users.

44 Views

Hi experts,

I have the need to provide a general monitor tool for the end business users to manage and operate (reprocess and cancel) messages exchanged by the applications. Normally my approach was the next for asynchronous interfaces:

- For business application like SAP ERP the user may use the transactions to monitor IDOCs, check functional errors and reprocess or cancel the IDOCs.

- For the integration platform like SAP PI the user has not access to this tool because the errors (mapping and communication erros) are pure technical.

- For the business applications without monitor for asynchronous interfaces the end user can manage files located in a backup folder, log files, ... And the reprocess is just to move the files from one folder to another.

But my client just wants a generic monitor where:

- They can search messages and workflows via date/time, source and target application, interface, ... from any business application and/or the integration platform.

- They can check the messages and workflows from any business application and/or the integration platform.

- They can modify the business data enbedded in the messages from any business application and/or the integration platform.

- They can reprocess message in from business application and/or the integration platform.

- Manage authorizations to allow to the end users the access to the different data.

I was checking BAM but i'm not sure if i will be able to achieve all the requirements. There are some requirements, like the applications without monitor that they manage files, where maybe i would have to implement a custom monitor.

My client use SAP PI 7.1, SAP ECC 6.0 and the lecacy applications use files to exchange messages.

I would appreciate any suggestion.

Thanks in advance and best regards,

Jose.
