[Former Member]

In PI 7.3 I found two Message protocol for SOAP Comm channe. please explain me what is difference between these tow protocols

1. Message Protocol SOAP 1.1 and

2. Message Protocol XI 3.0

[prateek]

This is there since PI 7.1 EhP1.

First one is used for usual SOAP communication as old Soap adapter.

Second one is for Java base ABAP Proxy communication with ECC utilizing AAE or AEX.

Hi Tanmaya,

Prateek has pointed the correct difference.

"If you want to send information from Integration Server/PCK to remote clients or Web servers, select theMessage Protocol as SOAP 1.1. If you want to send an XI message to a legacy system or AAE, then select the Message Protocol as XI 3.0.

Using the XI 3.0 message protocol, you can, for example, configure the communication between the Advanced Adapter Engine and ABAP proxies generated in back-end systems. Note that there are restrictions when this option is used. For more information, see SAP note 1247043."
