About the Book

As an integral part of end-to-end process integration, this book provides both experienced and new SAP XI developers with a detailed overview of the functions and usage options of the SAP Exchange Infrastructure.

First, readers learn about the central challenges and problems involved with business information systems integration and uncover the extensive options and functions provided by SAP XI to resolve these issues - with a special emphasis on the importance of SAP XI in ESA scenarios.

Then follow the authors as they take you deep into the system with a series of practical exercises for the development and configuration of mappings, adapters, and proxies: RFC-to-File, File-to-IDoc, ABAP-Proxy-to-SOAP, and Business Process Management. Each exercise is rounded off by a description of relevant monitoring aspects. A step-by-step introduction to all the individual interface technologies used, which are then combined in a comprehensive case study - part of which is devoted to SAP's BPM Technology - makes this book an invaluable resource.

Save time and avoid costly errors in your daily work using the detailed instructions on how best to handle necessary development and configuration objects of SAP XI, plus much more.
