Outbound mapplet

Outbound mapplet

You can capture changes to the master data or transactional data in the SAP application database in real time.
When data in the application database changes, the SAP system creates IDocs to capture the changes and sends the IDocs to
Data Integration
. You can use the IDoc Reader connection to read the IDoc message in real time as they are generated by the SAP system.
If the Secure Agent is not running when the SAP system sends outbound IDocs, the Secure Agent does not receive the IDocs. However, the SAP system stores the outbound IDocs in EDI tables, which are a staging area for guaranteed message delivery. You can configure the SAP system to resend the IDocs by configuring the tRFC port used to communicate with the Secure Agent. When you configure the port, you can enable background processes in SAP that try to resend the IDocs to the Secure Agent a set number of times.
To generate the outbound mapplet to read IDoc messages from SAP system, use the IDoc Interpreter when you import the IDoc metadata. Import the outbound mapplet to
Data Integration
and configure an outbound mapping.
