  • 1.  SAP integration using IDOC

    Posted Wed November 02, 2005 06:02 PM

    We are planning to use SAP 4.6 adpater for SAP integration using webMethods 6.5 Integration server. We will be using IDOC for al integrations. Total 55 type of IDOcs will be flowing between SAP and webMethods.Now I have question regarding performance. What SAP people are telling is that we will configure only one listner for all transactions.
    1)Is it good idea to have one listner or there shoud be multiple listners?.
    2) also we can configure value of threads while configuring listner what basis this value can be decided.
    3)Is there mechanism to deliver x type of idoc over all other types

    Thanks
    John

    John,

    I believe having one listener should be ok but some times if the idocs are commnincation from different business units/sectors located geographically then multiple listeners would be ideal way.

    Yes configuring thread value in listener page can be done,but i didnt remember max or best count etc…hope some one can chim on this.

    HTH,
