hi,

I i am trying to connect SAP ECC to PI 7.1, First time.

I am not sure i have to done with PI side aswell as in ECC side.

depends on scenario, for example if we want to send data from SAp system to any system via PI ,

we have different approaches like idoc,rfc,proxy(Xi) these 3 adapters provided by sap.

refer below blogs depends on Your scenario.

idoc to file:

rfc to soap:

proxy to soap:

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/advancedsearch?query=proxytosoap+scenario

and pi point of view you need to create some configurations in sld:

Hi,

Yes you said rite.

I am doing for ECC-PI-MDM scenario.

I am going to MATMAS, CLFMAS from ECC and sending to MDM via PI.

ALso planning to do with Asynchronous connection.

Please guide me now how to connect ECC to PI.

Documents with clear screenshots will help me alot.

Thanks.

hi,

I am going to MATMAS, CLFMAS from ECC and sending to MDM via PI.

As per my knowledge , we have to use IDOC's.

IDOC to pi to MDM becauuse MATMAS, CLFMAS standard idocs were provided by SAP.

http://www.saptechnical.com/Tutorials/XI/IDocToFile/IDocToFile1.htm

if you want to send huge amount of data from sap to mdm via pi ,then go for proxies:

Hi All,

Otherwise please describe me the step from where i have to start for this connectivity.

From ECC or from PI?.

IF from PI from where i have to start?

What will be the first step.

Thanks.

HI,

Otherwise please describe me the step from where i have to start for this connectivity.

From ECC or from PI?. -

---

> if you handle configuration steps on SAp sender Sys then start firts step

IF from PI from where i have to start?----

---

> if you Authorizations for sld , you need to check BUS.sys,tec.sys created/not

What will be the first step

for ex: IDOC - PI- MDM

step1:

idoc : MATMAS

we need to create preconfiguration steps (if you have authorizations for sender ECC sys)

In R3 :

1.Craete Logical system for R3 say SAPR3

2.assign client to this LS.

3.Create Logical system for XI say SAPXI

4.create RFC pointing to XI say R3_To_XI

5.Crate port of type Transactional RFC say PORT_To_XI.... give RFC created in step 4.

5.Create Partner Profile of type LS.

Give Partner no as SAPXI (LS of XI created in step 3)

In outbound parameters add ur Message type

Double click on message type & give Port PORT_TO_XI created in step 5.

6.Create Distribution Model..... Transaction BD64

In XI

SM59 - R3 connection pointing to R3

IDX1 - define the port with the above dest.

step3:

in SLD , you need to check business system is created/not

step4:

in esr,

1.you have toimport swcv and create name sapce

2.you have to import idoc under IMported Objects

3.you have to create data types,msg types,service interface,om,msg mappings.....

step5:

in id:

you have to create configuration objects.

thanks,

Hi,

Good it is, helping alot.

But i am not sure how to creat logical system and RFC also assigning the the Logical system to this RFC.

I created a Logical system i i am not suer how to creat RFC and to assign LS to RFC.

I created a Logical system i i am not suer how to creat RFC and to assign LS to RFC.

no yar, Step1: i mean create logical system and assign to user Sap R/3 (LS) (NOT RFC) any how refer below document

http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e07dcaa0-a92b-2a10-3a96-b3d942bd1...

(very simple just You follow above document step by step)
