data transfer between two SAP systems

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

We need to transfer the routes and stages data ( 0vtc tcode ) from one SAP system A to SAP system B , C and D. i could not find any std idoc or BAPI to do that. so i have left with two options.

develop custom idoc and write custom posting FM or develop proxy to proxy scenario using XI. can anybody list out that pros and cons if these two options

thanks

Hi,

I would go for proxy communication and XI. As XI is available in our scenario I suggest to choose it as it is the recommended infrastructure to connect systems. Also the advantage is to have a single point, where all data is routed trough. In case your scenario should be extended it's easier to do so with XI.

Point to point connections from your source system to 3 other systems would mean mor development and maintenance effort. You would have to change 3 things in case of changes - with XI only 1.

Hope this is helpful!

Hello

The routes and stages data are client-dependent customizing. So the simplest way would be to ensure that any released customizing request containing routes and stages is forwarded to the /TRANS directories of the target SAP systems. There you can simply import the request.

Another option would be to go for BC-Sets.
