SAP MII BLS Transactions alternative in SAP DM (Digital Manufacturing)

[khaleelurrehman_badeghar]

Hi,

@ManoelCosta @salvatore_castro and All SAP DM experts,

While we are transforming MII to DM (Digital Manufacturing) one area is how DM can help in replacing existing highly customized MII transactions/BLS where lots of ZBAPIs RFCs are used and data is uploaded downloaded to and from ECC, SQL etc.? DM talks about Serive Registry but in that case we will have to still use MII. What after MII end of life and complete replacement of MII?

I could not find any straight forward solution for this. Please help with the the details.

Thanks and regards

Hello @khaleelurrehman_badeghar and thanks for the post.

Without knowing too much about your customizations and what you're able to achieve at a business process level, and for this I highly recommend leveraging our SAP Customer Evolution Kit for Manufacturing.

That said, I can still provide some insight into the technical components to map over the processes into SAP Digital Manufacturing Production Process Designer.  For this to work you have to first wrap your ZBAPIs into one or multiple Enterprise Services (depends on what you're doing) and there are videos that I have seen in the past on this and also core SAP Enterprise Service Help documentation available.  Once you have the WSDLs created for these services you can map them into SAP Digital Manufacturing via the Manage Service Registry app.  Once their definition is mapped into here you can then consume it as a "block" in the production process designer flow.

Hope this helps,

Sam
