Hello experts,
I have a requirement where we have to send an Idoc to different trading partners using van.
On the receiver side AS2 adapters will be used.There are many trading partners here.Can someone guide me through? ..
The entire scenario will be done in SAP PO 7.4
Breaking the entire scenario in the following parts---
1)IDoc on sender side--What will be partner profile type? Will it LS or any other (BP, GP or KU??)
2)AS2 configuration details---AS2 adapter is available in the dropdown of adapter list.What are the config details for AS2?
3)Trading partner mechanism-How this can be achieved?..what this essentially achieves ? any step by step guide available? Does it take care of sending the Idoc only to VAN or sending Idoc to different trading partners directly bypassing VAN?
4)Is using NWDS suggestible?--Is it convenient?
Any help/step by step blog will be of great help.
If I miss anything in the entire scenario, please let me know
Thanks

Hi Ajay,
1)IDoc on sender side--What will be partner profile type? Will it LS or any other (BP, GP or KU??)
-->>The partner type is depend on your scenario. AS2 adapter is used for B2B communication and usually to vendor and customers.
This purchase Order should go to the particular vendor as a sales order. Then we use partner type as LI -- Vendor.
Similarly when we sell some materials to our customers, we create the Sales order to our customer. Then we use Partner type as KU - Customer
Partner Type GP---Business Partner
Partner Type KU---Customer
Partner Type LI---Vendor
Partner Type LS---Logical system
Partner Type US--User
2)AS2 configuration details---AS2 adapter is available in the dropdown of adapter list.What are the config details for AS2?
-->> to configure as2 connection you need following details from trading partner
AS2 ID
server address with URL extension
TP certificate
MDN address and type (Sync, asyn and signed or not signed)
Message communication encryption algorithm
Compression is required or not and if req. which algorithm to use
3)Trading partner mechanism-How this can be achieved?..what this essentially achieves ? any step by step guide available? Does it take care of sending the Idoc only to VAN or sending Idoc to different trading partners directly bypassing VAN?
-->> If you are communicating through VAN then you need to send the message to VAN and VAN will route the message to respective TP.
4)Is using NWDS suggestible?--Is it convenient?
-->> NWDS is another option to create scenario, it is depend on developer which one he want to use.

Hi Harish,
We are working on the similar scenario, we have created the URL as sent to partner - http://public ip:port/AS2/auth
1. we have tested the URL in the browser , and we gave the password and we receive the error
"Use POST-Requests to submit AS2-Messages"
2. This is message in communication channel monitoring for sender channel - " Channel is listening for incoming connections on /AS2/auth " we are not clear in this statement".
3. once the partner post the message in the URL, where will we receive the message in PO 7.4 , how to see it.
4. Please tell us any setting to be made from PO 7.4 side.
Thanks & Regards
