Third party is sending IDOC (EDI_DC40 relevant?)

Former Member

Hi,

I need to send an IDOC from a third party to an SAP system via XI. My problem is the first part: ThirdParty->IDOC.

Now I have done the following steps:

- RFC connection between Third party and XI works fine

- define Third Party as busines system in SLD and assign a logical system name to it

- enter logical system name in BD54 in XI and SAP

- define sending IDOC communication channel

- define receiving IDOC communication channel

My question for the <b>sending</b> part:

Are there any entries in EDI_DC40 for the sending third party system neccessary for XI (Sender System/Port/... Receiver System/Port/... etc.)? If yes which entries are neccessary?

Logical System name you should maintain when you are creating a Business System inSLD not in BD54 of XI, then you should create the same logical system in SAP using BD54 transaction and maintain a partner profile and inbound idoc config.

After you import the Business System into Integration Directory, then you should open the business system (double click) and menu Service --> Adapter-Specific Identifiers and make sure it is populated.

@SKM

Ok, you say that no entries in BD54 of the XI are neccessary for:

- the logical system name of the Third Party system and

- the logical system name of the SAP system

Is that correct?

Do I have to populate the fields of the edi control set (EDI_DC40) for SNDPRT, SNDPRN, RCVPRT and RCVPRN??

Yes, you do not need do define in BD54 of XI system.

But you will need them in SAP R/3 system because you have to define the partner profile.
