Configuring the Integration Scenario 

Purpose

You must configure the integration scenario before you can execute it.

This section contains an overview of the necessary configuration steps.

For detailed instructions of how to configure this integration scenario (for the SAP standard configuration), see the separate document containing these instructions.

For detailed instructions about configuring the demo examples, see SAP Service Marketplace at http://service.sap.com/solutions ®  SAP NetWeaver  ®  SAP NetWeaver in Detail  ®  Process Integration  ®  SAP Exchange Infrastructure  ®  Media Library  ®  Documentation (Document SAP NW 2004s - Configuration of PI Demo Examples).

Prerequisites

Before you configure this integration scenario, you must execute general configuration steps for the demo examples (for example, set up the System Landscape Directory, generate the appropriate flight data). For details, see General Configuration Steps.

Configuration Steps

You must activate the Web service SXIDAL_FLIGHTSEATAVAIL_CHECK (short description: XI Demo: Check Flight Availability) before you begin configuration in the Integration Directory. To do this, call transaction Release Web Services for SOAP Runtime (WSCONFIG) in the SAP system of the airline that provides the Web service.

You can use the integration scenario configurator for the rest of the configuration procedure. Note the following:

·        Select the integration scenario CheckFlightSeatAvailability (component view ABAP_Proxy_2_Web_Service) from the Integration Repository.

·        Assign services: Assign the corresponding business system services of the travel agency and the business service of the airline that provides the Web service to the application components of the integration scenario.

·        Create a communication channel for the airline that receives the flight availability query by using the communication channel template XIDemoChannel_WebServiceSOAP (software component version SAP Basis 6.40, namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/Demo/Agency), and enter the required data (for example, URL of the Web service, user, and password).

·        Use the integration scenario configurator to generate receiver determinations, interface determinations, and receiver agreements.

·        Define the corresponding conditions for the receiver determination so that messages are forwarded to the correct airline. Use the context object AirlineID.

Once you have finished, do not forget to activate all change lists containing changes that you made during configuration.
