Whenever possible, please try to avoid file-based integration (flat or not, going through the file system is not a good integration pattern), see blog post: Avoid using flat files!. However, sometimes it is still the best fit when the connected system does not provide a clean (RESTful or WebService-based) API. This blog series is about how to set up MFT scenarios with SAP PI/SAP NetWeaver Process Orchestration (PRO) in a smart way.
