Abstract
An apparatus, system, and method are disclosed for managing inbound transactions from an SAP application. A transaction ID module is included that receives a transaction identifier ('TID') associated with an event from an SAP application by way of an ALE interface for an asynchronous transaction. A recording module is included to record an event record in an event tracking repository by way of an XA transaction, the event record comprising the TID and an associated transaction status. An intermediate document module is included to receive an intermediate document ('IDoc') containing transaction data from a transaction associated with the event and the associated TID from the SAP application by way of the ALE interface using a Transaction Remote Function Call protocol. A conversion module is included to convert the IDoc to a service data object (“SDO”) and an SDO transmit module is included to transmit the SDO to an endpoint using the XA transaction.
