Using a simple scenario, this article explains how to create a brokered web service in SAP XI 3.0. In Part II, I will describe how to consume this web service in a Web Dynpro Application.
Scenario:
- User requests Customer Details via a Web browser
- Data is sent through WebAS to SAP XI using a SOAP adapter
- The message is then synchronously sent to SAP R/3 system via RFC adapter, and a BAPI call is executed to get the Customer details
- The BAPI response is sent to the WebAS to fulfil the user request
This part of the article describes how to create web services in SAP XI while the Part II deals with using the WSDL file to expose the web service using Web Dynpro.
Prerequisites:
- Good knowledge of SAP XI 3.0 concepts
- Basic knowledge of Web Dynpro Applications
