ALE configuration for pushing IDoc’s from SAP to XI

There were fresher’s in my team who wanted to work on sender IDOC adapter. They were
searching SDN for step by step guide on ALE configurations for triggering IDoc’s out of SAP. Hence,
thought of blogging this on SDN so that it can act as a guide/checklist for XI consultants. 

 All the configuration specified below are to be performed in the Sender SAP system 
• Create a Logical system for the sender SAP system and the receiving XI system using
Transaction - ‘SALE’:

• Assign Client to the Sender Logical System


 
• Create RFC destination of type ‘3’ for SAP XI system using transaction – SM59: Make sure that
the name of the RFC destination and Logical system for SAP XI is the same.  

 
• Create a Distribution Model through ‘SALE’ transaction: 
• Create a Distribution Model by selecting ‘Create Model View’: Specify the name of the model
view and a description. 

• For the model view created above, add the message type of the idoc that you wish to send to
SAP XI using this model view. Select ‘Add Message Type’ option and then specify the sender
logical system and the receiver logical system.

Save your Model view before proceeding further. 


• Generate the partner profiles by selecting the navigation path from the main menu,
Environment --> Generate Partner profiles upon selecting the generate partner profiles option,
then execute it with the default parameters displayed on the selection screen 

• From the main screen navigate through the menu option, EDIT --> MODEL VIEW -->
DISTRIBUTE. Upon receiving the message shown here, it means the distribution is successful

• Go to transaction BD10 to send a material out of IDES:


• Go to transaction WE02/WE05 to check the status of the IDOC in the sending system
