Sending EPCIS messages to OER without PI?

Former Member

A customer wants us to work out a POC for sending EPCIS event messages from a consumer proxy (based on the WSDL file/url of the service) on the ECC system (as a simulation for an external partner) to the web service CaptureEventNotification_In WITHOUT the use of PI.

Any tips?

Hi Angelo,

It should work the way you have mentioned for posting EPCIS message without PI .

What more you want to know here ?

The problem is that EventCaptureNotification_In interface is configured by SAP in EM as “Mediated only”. It has no service definition and can therefore not be directly consumed or configured in SOAMANAGER ((unlike most other web services of the http://sap.com/xi/PTA namespace, such as Poll_In, which are “Point to point enabled” and do have service definitions that enable the creation of service consumers in other SAP systems).

Is there a way to work around this problem and set up a configuration so that we can send EPCIS event messages to OER/EM directly from a proxy application (point to point in other words)?

Thanks for reading

Hi Angelo,

Can you think of building RFC wrapper around proxy EventCaptureNotification_In interface ? This RFC FM can be converted to required web service in SOAMANAGER later on.

It should work the way we post EPCIS events directly into OER using sproxy transaction.

Let me know if this works .

Hi Sridar,

I'm a colleague of Angelo. For the customer it is very important that we use the standard webservice, so creation of a wrapper is not an option.

OER has a GS1 certified EPCIS capture interface. We want a non SAP application to use this interface without passing through PI first.

Best regards

Piet.

Hi,

in the meantime a new note has been released by SAP, that changes the communication type of service EventCaptureNotification_In to "Point to Point Enabled": 2011894

With this it is possible to call the service without usage of PI.
