  • 1.  How to connect SAP PO with IBM MQ ?

    Hi all,

    I need you're help ones again.
    We at Sligro have to integratie SAP PO with IBM MQ. We run SAP PO version 7.5 and we use Java JDK 8 for development on  SAP PO on the SAP PO server as well as on our development clients.  SAP PO Make release:   NW750EXT_15_REL.

    What are the best practices for using SAP PO with IBM MQ ?
    At this moment we use the ibm MQ allClient JAR file version 9.1.1.0 which is uploaded to the SAP PO library. 

    What are the preloaded classes we have to upload in SAP PO, see also picture and attachement ?
    Is the IBM Allclient 9.1.1.0 JAR the best choice, because SAP PO is already there since 2015, maybe we have to downgrade the MQ client JAR to another lIBM MQ JMS library ?  

    I think the settings in the picture which are done are not correct because these class file does not match the path in the  IBM MQ AllClient library JAR but I might be wrong about this.

    See also attachment, this are the configurations we currently have set.

    Help appreciated
    Thanks

    Are you supposed to have a list of classes in the custom properties? Or should you have there the connection list for an MI Qmgr instead?
    I noticed that you set Target Client to JMS-Compliant. I would have expected Non JMS-Compliant, unless you are transporting some JMS Properties (RFH Util header) that need to be evaluated by SAP PO?. Typically I'd expect the PO data to be in IDOC format and immediatly processible by SAP. Just make sure that any Vendor/part/item information has hit the SAP PO system before the PO or the PO would go to error while processing in SAP.
    Hope it helps

    Hi FJ,

    Thanks for your response:
    Our business goal is to transfer XML documents from SAP to an external NON SAP system. In this case to an  IBM AS400 system. In between we use a queue for decoupling and asynchrone processing.
    It is not necessary to set MQProperties on the message.

    We choose for JMS because all our other MQ client applications are JMS based.
    But we have no experience with SAP PO connecting to MQ. So when JMS is not possible then we have to use another method to achieve our goal.
    You have any idea how to solve this ?
    Kind regards
