Business documents are transmitted within an XML envelope. Due to the fact that they only contain business management data they can be transmitted via arbitrary XML standard envelopes (e.g. BizTalk, SOAP, …).

Adapter for SAP supports the transport of business documents within the BizTalk envelope. More details concerning the use of the BizTalk envelope for the transport of business documents can be found in Using BizTalk Envelopes with Adapter for SAP.
