Hi,

Is x.400 connectivity with trading partner for EDI transactions supported by SAP Integration Suite? Trading partner wants to use x.400 connectivity(mailbox) with CPI instead of moving to AS2. Please let me know if that is possible in SAP CPI.

Thanks!

There are plans to provide the X.400 adapter on Edge Integration Cell, it's not yet on the official roadmap in the roadmap explorer, once it will be added you can check at https://roadmaps.sap.com/board?PRODUCT=000D3A47875C1EDB98A8A910864AC24B for more details. Note, since this is a roadmap topic, I need to put the disclaimer that any plans are due to change.

Hello @alex_bundschuh,

It's a bit frustrating to see that this request is still a long-term planned extension for SAP CPI. Even though I'd like to see x.400 replaced by another solution like AS2 it's still being used heavily by retailers all over Europe. Looking at the names of the companies that voted for this request on https://influence.sap.com/sap/ino/#/idea/250987/?section=sectionVotes it makes me wonder if the development of such a solution could be given higher priority.
At the time we have chosen to switch to CPI we were told that the x.400 solution would come some time in 2024.

Regards,
Mathias

X.400 is not an adapter that is provided out of the box, so they would need to choose another option or it would require usage of a custom adapter setup.  Here is a link to the available adapters - https://help.sap.com/docs/cloud-integration/sap-cloud-integration/configure-adapter-in-communication...

@vandanadogra there are two customer influence requests for x.400 support. The last update was in November of 2022 where they marked it under long-term consideration and the next status update was planned for Q4/2023.
