What is the ixi-UMS SI CON Connector?

The ixi-UMS Connector for use with SAP® R/3® is an extension module to the ixi-UMS Kernel. It provides a connection to a SAP-system. The ixi-UMS Enterprise Connector delivers incoming UMS (Fax, SMS, Voice) messages (from ixi-UMS Kernel to SAP R/3 system), and outgoing messages (from SAP-system to ixi-UMS Kernel).

 

On start of the service, the ixi-UMS SI CON Connector bounds to the SAP-system via a TCP connection and logs on.

The connection runs over RFC and is handled with the "SAPRFC.DLL" from SAP.

The SAPRFC.DLL uses the WinSockets for the TCP/IP communication. The WinSockets are part of the operating system.

The SAP-system remembers the login information (IP Addr, user information etc.) and uses this information for handling the jobs. The SAP R/3 system transmits the jobs to the ixi-UMS SI CON Connector over the TCP/IP-connection opened from ixi-UMS Enterprise.

 

The connection data are stored in the file "saprfc.ini" in the installation directory of the ixi-UMS SI CON Connector.

 

The ixi-UMS SI CON Connector supports the following features:

 

- management via Microsoft MMC (Microsoft MMC)

- SAP-Node monitoring (connection test, status, trace)

- one coverpage and layout file configurable per instance

- standard-sender configurable per instance

- delivery reports to SAP, even if a delivery to a other mail system is configured

- detailed trace and logging possibilities during ixi-UMS SI CON Connector operating

- registration in the SLD = System Landscape Directory
