Hi Experts,
My client is using SAP ERP where FI team will generate transaction files in .xls format and place it in Outbound shared folder from where the SAP PI should pick up the files and post to client gateway server in the required folder where it should also be encrypted. The next step is like Bank will install the SFTP in gateway server of our client and that SFTP will poll for the new files in the outbound directory and pulls them to their bank network.
Reverse scenario is like SFTP will poll for the Bank server for reverse files from Bank and places it in the specified folder of Gateway from where PI should pick up the files and post them to Inbound shared folder of ERP. But I have the below queries on the above scenarios:
1. I am not using for both Inbound & Outbound scenario, In outbound scenario where the transaction files to be generated from ERP system a file naming convention should be followed with parameters like Transaction type,date & etc to generate the file names so since there is no mapping involved here in PI what are the possibilities to achieve in PI? If it can be done through command line option in the channel then I am not aware of the script to generate the file name. Hence, is there any possibility for ABAP guys to generate the file name via any report after FI people generate file according to the bank format? Which will be easiest option ?
2. Since Gateway server of our client comes in between SAP ERP & Bank and encryption is used, my question is whose public key should be used to encrypt the files in PI either gateway server's or bank server's ?
Thnx,Nithin
