Business objects for the Advanced Event Processing (AEP) interface

During advanced event processing, the adapter exchanges business objects with the SAP application.

How data is represented in business objects

Advanced event processing business objects are based on custom IDocs, standard IDocs, or extension IDocs available in the SAP system.

How business-object definitions are created

You create business-object definitions by using the Adapter Connection wizard. The wizard connects to the application, discovers data structures in the application, and generates business-object definitions to represent them. It also generates other resources that are needed by the adapter, such as the interface information that indicates the input and output parameters.

For custom interfaces that you want to support, you must first define the custom IDoc in the SAP system. You can then use the Adapter Connection wizard to discover this custom IDoc and build the required resources, including the business-object definition.
