B2B Toolkit

Former Member

Hi.

We have installed the B2B Toolkit in our sandbox.

Where can I find information regarding the toolkit?

If we would like to setup a testscenario how do we do that?

Is there any opensorce software that we can use to simulate the messages  for the AS2 adapter?

There are many predefined structures in the EDISeparator adapter. Can we add aditional structures and how do we do that?

Is it possible to export existing Seeburger solutions and import them into the B2B Toolkit?

Hi Kalle,

To answer your questions:

Where can I find information regarding the toolkit?

--> look on SCN and the SAP Service Marketplace. Look for OSS notes via terms 'EDI' and 'B2B'.

If we would like to setup a testscenario how do we do that?

-> please have a look at my blog: http://scn.sap.com/community/b2b-integration/blog/2013/04/23/the-sap-pi-b2b-add-on-edi-capabilities-...

Bottom line is get the message structure correct in the B2B Integration Cockpit and use it in the ESR to create a mapping. Afterwards, use these objects in your scenario. Also, make sure routing rules are set up in the B2B Integration Cockpit.

Is there any opensource software that we can use to simulate the messages  for the AS2 adapter?

--> we used the AS2 solution of Mendelson. It works fine.

There are many predefined structures in the EDISeparator adapter. Can we add aditional structures and how do we do that?

--> use the EDI manager for this. You can modify structures and create new ones from scratch.

Is it possible to export existing Seeburger solutions and import them into the B2B Toolkit?

--> this is not possible, but you can export the XML/XSD structure from the Seeburger workbench and import them into the B2B Integration Cockpit as a starting point.

Hope this helps.

Kind regards,

Dimitri

Hi Kalle,

regarding your last question:

Is it possible to export existing Seeburger solutions and import them into the B2B Toolkit?

This is not possible, based on the fact, that although the B2B-Toolkit follows some of the principles of the Seeburger EDI-Adapters (like with the Splitter),  the handling is different, e.g. the used message-structures are not compatible.

Also, as far as I can see in the docs, the B2B-Toolkit uses specific channels for the separator....while the Seeburger EDI-Adapters are performing all these duties with modules that can be included into any module chain (to achieve a high flexibility).

So, any switch between the 2 toolsets will definitely require some work to redesign the scenarios and modify the mappings.

Regards

Stefan
