Hi Guys,

We would like to setup EDI from our SAP system to an external (non R/3) server using FTP.

How can I do that ?

Do I have to parameter something in SM59 ? FTP connection ( where do I store FTP user/passwd ? )

Thx a lot for your help,

Regards,

Erwan

hi

you need to use FTP protocol if you wanna use EDI.

For connection related issues jus check with your BASIS whether there is valid connection between your sys and external sys.

Cheers,

Hi,

Check if this sounds good.One work around would be Generate the files for an idoc.This can be done by using a file port.With this option the files are going to created on the application server.

Using the FM's FTP_CONNECT,FTP_COMMAND,FTP_DISCONNECT you can place the files on the FTP server.Refer the program rsftp002 for this.
