Request processing

To configure the adapter for SAP XI for request processing, use the following procedure:

  1. Generate a WSDL file from the SAP XI system by doing the following:
    1. Log on to the SAPXI (2.0) system GUI.
    2. Select Repository(Design).
    3. Import the object (for example BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST ).
    4. Double-click the imported object (for example, BAPI_SALESORDER_GETLIST).
    5. Select Tools->Export WSDL and save the WSDL file in your local file system.
  2. Generate business objects using the BIA_XIWSDLUtil tool and then the SAP XI ODA. These are delivered with the WebSphere Business Integration Adapter for SAP XI. For more information, see Enabling collaborations for request processing.
  3. Using Connector Configurator, configure the adapter to support the generated objects.
  4. Configure SAP XI, if it is not already configured.
    1. Define a software component for the WebSphere Business Integration Adapter for SAP XI in the System Landscape Directory (SLD).
    2. Configure the HTTP(S) protocol handlers and listeners using Connector Configurator.
    3. Maintain the directory.
  5. Test request objects from the end application or by using Test Connector if you are sending test requests.
