Data upload without XI/PI

Dear Experts,

I am stuck with some problem and i hope you all there will be able to help me.

Scenario:

client doesn't have Web Services i.e. XI/PI and they want to sync data from one application to SAP. The application extracts XML file to file server which then i need to pick and upload to SAP system.

Problems:

Is it possible to pick up file from 'file server' without XI/PI ? (if yes then how?)

how to convert the file from XML to flat once file is picked?

once there is success/failure of data upload then there should be some log file for the confirmation.

this is the overview of the problem once i break this then i hope i will have some other questions to ask.

Any light on this is highly appreciated and thanks in advance.

waiting for your replies

Cheers !
