Hi,

Generally you create a distribution model on the outbound side and distribute it to the receiving system. It also depends on what scenario you are working with ?

Hi all,

Mine is inbound scenario.

Sender is XI system

Receiver is R/3 system.

Do i need to maintain distribution model for this?

1.As per my knowledge, distribution model is only created in outbound scenario? In inbound scenario why distribution model is not created?

2.On the outbound side, after generating partner profiles we get SYNCH SYNCHRON in outbound partner profile. My question is there any setting to generate partner profiles on inbound side also?

or else SYNCH SYNCHRON will be for only outboud?

Please clarify........

Hi surya,

Creation of Distribution model is done only in the ALE configuration that is when the IDOC's needs to be transmitted between 2 SAP R/3 systems, in your case you are receiving the IDOC from XI system you need not create the distribution model.

You are using an EDI model and not an ALE model.

Thanks,

Mahesh.
