hey

A2A means application to application,it refers to scenarios where both the sender and receiver and with ur landscape,suppose ur doin a File to IDOC scenario where in both the FTP server and the R/3 server is within ur landscape then it will be called A2A,in most A2A cases we use business system and service without party.

B2B means busines to business,it refers to scenario where both the sender and the receiver and in different landscape,suppose ur again doing a File to IDOC scenario but the FTP server is in a separate landscape(for e.g ur clients site or anywhere else) and the R/3 server is in ur landscape.we have to use Party for this to identify separate business.we also prefer Business service over business system in this case.

thanx

In simple terms A2A means within the company one application to another application, and B2B means one company to another company.

Hi,

A2A - Application to Application

Where you want to exchange some information into one Landscape That is we can say one MNC Company where it has location all round the world.

B2B - Business to Business

Where the excnage of information between two different Parties or companies or land scape, Where Firewall security will come into picture.
