Hi Friends,
I have to publish a document to wM BROKER from external system (Ex:SAP) ... What all are the things needed at webMethods end like configurations etc.
when you say external system, you mean a system within the company infrastructure? I mean, is SAP and Webmethods in the local infrastructure of this company? or does SAP exists in one company/infrastructure and Webmethods in different company/infrastructure)? this makes a big difference in the developed solution.
webmethods SAP adapter wont be useful in your case. There are multiple way you can do it. each solution will depends on the level of access you have to SAP. In all of these solution, you would need to create an IS service that "somehow" get the data from SAP and then publish it to your broker. This IS service can for example periodically invoke a web service in SAP or poll a specific directory to check for generated file(which contain the data). It all depends on the level of access you got to this SAP in term of development or configuration. Maybe if you share with us more detail, we can recommend for you a specific direction.

In other terms, A Polling Notification in case of DB Resource or a Listener Notification in case of SAP serve the purpose ..!

Siuywi- My explanation inline with Paipavola.. I just named them as notifications, a feature that our WM Adapters have..
