Access external system data from SAP

[Former Member]

Hi All,

I would like to access external system data by making a call from SAP ECC 6.0 let's say from a custom transaction.

I don't want to use PI. what are my options? Is it based on external system?

One of the external system i am trying to access is Rental result - java-based enterprise business system.

Inputs are appreciated.

Thanks,

Indira.

What does the external system offer in the way of interface? Does it offer web services? Use them? Does it offer IDOC? Use them. Is it OLE enableD? Use OLE.

You can only access an external system from SAP if the external system offers some kind of access.

could you direct me to documentation of web services implementation.

No, and nor should anyone else. Try searching, in accordance with the Rules of Engagement. There's plenty to be found with just a little effort.
