ABAP-XSLT mapping.

Hi ALL,
I am using i scinario in my project of type IDOC to PI to SOAP . In this one my mapping is of type ABAP-XSLT . the interface is runnign fine for all the idocs except one idoc. When that particula idoc comming from r/3 it is giving short dump and the message is staying at queue as scheduled. When i am trying to reprocess the message it is giving the same dump. In the ST22 t code it is saying the XSLT_RUNTIME_ERROR and the error is XSLT "xxxx"program was termintaed scince it encounterd a statement that could not be executed. I tried to monitor the trace for the both successful messages on the same inteface. But the both the traces are same it seems. what could be the reason how to eliminate.

Hi,
I think there is an option to debug the XSLT programs that are generated using call transformation command:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/07/88273c3f2b3c7ce10000000a11402f/content.htm
Can you try debugging the XSLT program?
Also check if there are any invalid characters like angled braces, ampersands etc in your IDOC data.
It might sometimes create issues.

FileName in ABAP XSLT Mapping

Dear SDN,
In an integration scenario we are using sender File Adapter and a ABAP XSLT Mapping.
Is there any way to get the source FileName from such mapping. Im trying to use the adapter-specific message attributes, but it doesn't work, and I didn´t find an example, probably I and doing somthing wrong.

Thank you for your help,
I just try to access the adapter-specific attibutes using:
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"

</xsl:stylesheet>
but the following error raised:

XSLT Mapping with Java Enhancement

Hi All
I am working on XSLT Mapping with Java Enhancement.
To do this scenario i have followed the following link.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/55/7ef3003fc411d6b1f700508b5d5211/frameset.htm
As per the above link I have created Source and Target Data Types , Message Types , Mesage Interfaces, XSLT Mapping (using the transaction XSLT_TOOL) and Interface Mapping part and configred a simple file to file scenario in the ID part.
Apart from this I have wirte the java code, compile the java code, create the jar file using .java and .class file and after creating the jar file import the .jar file in the imported archive of the IR..
when I am trying to execute the scenario I am getting the successful message in SXMB_MONI but the target file is having the payload as given below.
<?xml version ="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<name xmlns:javamap="java:com.company.group.MappingClass"/>
And as per the XSLT mapping the payload should be as below
<?xml version ="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<person>
<name>Rinku Gangwani</name>
</person>
I have also followed the following blog link but still i am getting the same issue
/people/pooja.pandey/blog/2005/06/27/xslt-mapping-with-java-enhancement-for-beginners
could you please tell me what can be the reason that i am getting the blank targt field values in the payload.
Thanks
Rinku Gangwani

Hi,
The Transaction code XSLT_TOOL for ABAP xslt mapping.But the Java Enhancement is used for normal xslt mapping which we created using Stylus Studio.You can not access the Java Enhancement in ABAP xslt mapping.
If you want to use Java Enhancement in xslt mapping then create a xslt mapping using Stylus Studio and save the file as .xsl and zip the .xsl and import to import archive.

XSLT-Mapping oder Message Mapping (grafisches Mapping)?

Hallo,
which mapping type is the best? xslt oder message mapping?
Jens

Hi,
In terms of perfromance , XSLT is supposed to be very bad and is to be avoided whenever possibl.e
Graphical Mapping is the best when it comes to performance of the mapping.
But , there are a few features, which are not possible using graphical in which case you might have to go for JAVA/ ABAP / XSLT mapping.

XSLT Mapping on ABAP Engine

Hi All,
I am trying to implement an XSLT mapping on the ABAP Engine. I went to the Transformation Workbench(SE80).I have created 4 levels of packages (Structure->Main->then 2 more levels) and included Package Interface SAI_TOOLS in 'Use Accesses' tab.
I have also set com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.additionaltypes=R3_ABAP|Abap-class;R3_XSLT|XSL (ABAP Engine)
in the Exchange Profile.
Now I want to create the tranformation (ST or XSLT) so that I can see it in the Repository.
At which package level(1st to 4th), should I right-click and go to 'Create->More->Transformations' so that I can see this XSLT Mapping program in the repository?
I have followed all the links from help.sap.com but I am unable to get the desired result, i.e. see my Mapping in the Repository when I choose Mapping Program of type 'XSL->ABAP Engine', from the drop-down box in Interface Mapping.
Kindly help.
Regards,
Puloma.

Hi Naveen,
I did as you told, i.e. keyed in the name of the ABAP Transformation program (mapping) name.I have not written any namespace for the Mapping program in the Interface Mapping Design, just the Program name.
When I execute my mapping from se80, it works perfectly.
I created this Transformation program at the topmost level (i.e. Structure package level).
But when I execute my scenario, I get the following runtime error in sxmb_moni:
Error in mapping program zpc_transfom2 (type R3_XSLT, kernel error ID UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION).
What is wrong? Did I create the transformation program at the wrong level?
Regards,
Puloma.

Graphical Mapping Vs XSLT mapping Vs Java Mapping Vs ABAP Mapping

Hi Experts,
I have a question regarding different message mapping options available in XI namely
Graphical Mapping
XSLT mapping
Java Mapping
ABAP Mapping
Q1: Which amoung the above mappings is the best and why?
Q2: On what cases Graphical, XSLT, Java and ABAP Mapping should be used?
Q3: Is it true that graphical and XSLT mappings are converted into Java class internally?
Kindly help!
Thanks

Hi,
There is no hard and fast rule for using the mapping techniques.
Graphical Mapping is used for simple mapping cases. When, the logic for your mapping is simple and straight forward and it does not involve mult hiearchical mapping requirement. and context handling.
Java and XSLT mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you.
When the choice is between Java And XSLT, XSLT is simpler than java mapping and easier. But, it has its drawbacks. XSLT can lead to a bad perfrormance if the Source XML is huge.
Java Mapping uses 2 types of parsers. DOM and SAX. DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements, but , DOM is very processor intensive.
SAX parser is something that parses your XML one after the other, and so is not processor intensive. But, it is not exaclty easy to develop either.

Am not sure about XSLT , but , yes graphical mapping is converted into java classes internally and these classes use SAX parsing as well.

Calling abap method in xslt mapping?

Hi
I need to call abap method in my xslt mapping , i tried with

Hello,
Please see the code below.
This is how u call

Hi
All mapping related links
There is no hard and fast rule for using the mapping techniques.
Graphical Mapping is used for simple mapping cases. When, the logic for your mapping is simple and straight forward and it does not involve any complex logic.
Java and XSLT mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you and you have multilevel hierarchy structure data.
When the choice is between Java and XSLT, XSLT is simpler than java mapping and easier. But, it has its drawbacks. One among them being that you cannot use Java APIs and Classes in it. There might be cases in your mapping when you will have to perform something like a properties file look up or a DB lookup, such scenarios are not possible in XSLT and so, when you want to use some specific Java API's you will have to go for Java Mapping.
Java Mapping uses 2 types of parsers. DOM and SAX. DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements, but, DOM is very processor intensive.
SAX parser is something that parses your XML one after the other, and so is not processor intensive. But, it is not exactly easy to develop either.
To know more about each of them please go thru the following links. And if you ask me your which is better, it depends basically on the scenario you implementing and the complexity involved. Anyways please go thru the following links:

Raise error in an external-function of XSLT-mapping (ABAP)

Hi,
we implemented a xslt-mapping (ABAP) in PI with external-functions.
It's a great feature and works fine.
Now, we have to implement an error handling:
The external-functions are reading data from an abap table. We have to stop the mapping (if a value in the table is missing).
We wanna show an error inside the PI-Monitoring (red flag) with a valid error text.
How can I raise an error inside an external-function?
regards
Wolfgang Hummel

Hi Michal,
thanks a lot for your answer.
Can I set dynamic configuration inside an external funktion of an ABAP-XSLT?
I added the CX_MAPPING_FAULT-Exception to my external-function method and raised an exception inside my external-funktion ... and I got an "UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION" inside my mapping - bad

Message Mapping ... ABAP ,XSLT and JAVA

HI Friends
I have a general question ... but it will confuse me a lot ....
my question is we have four types of message mappings
1) GUI ( and UDFs)
2) ABAP
3)XSLT
4) JAVA
when we have plenty of options in GUI (and User defined functions also) to define sender 2 receiver message mapping
then what is need of JAVA,ABAP and XSLT Message Mapping and when we use these message mappings( exactly in which situation) and difference b/w them
Thanks in Advance
Mahesh

Green = recommended
Yellow = Acceptable
Red = not recommended
In my experience.
XSLT mapping: is confotable to convert to another format different to xml(when we do not have a complex logic)
Java Mapping: is to implement complex logics(but the maintainbilityis not good...you need a external tool)
ABAP mapping: I think is the best option when the you have the skills on that technology but take account that is not portable neither good for usability.
Regards
Ivan

Java Mapping, XSLT Mapping, ABAP Mapping

Hi Experts,
Could any one explain what is the main features of the following Mapping. How to pick the mapping?
Java Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
ABAP Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
XSLT Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
Graphical Mapping - When to use and what is the advantage.
cheers,
Sunee

There are 4 types of mapping in XI
1. Graphical Mapping
2. XSLT Mapping
3. JAVA Mapping
4. ABAP Mapping
When to use Message mapping
1 When the logic for your mapping is simple and straight forward, you can use
Advantages of message mapping
1)Easy to use.
2) has GUI drag and drop.
3) used for simple mapping cases
4) it does not involve any complex logic
Disadvantages of message mapping
1)has limitation in terms of complex hierarchy
When to use Java mapping
1) Java mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you.
Advantages of Java Mapping
1)you can use Java APIs and Classes in it.
2) file look up or a DB lookup is possible
3) DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements.
Disadvantages of Java mapping
1)SAX parser is not easy to develop
2)DOM parser is intensive
3) Java knowledge is required
4) bit complexer
XSLT Mapping - When to use
1)When the required output is other than XML like Text, Html or XHTML (html displayed as XML )
2)When default namespace coming from graphical mapping is not required or is to be changed as per requirements.
3)When data is to be filtered based on certain fields (considering File as source)
4)When data is to be sorted based on certain field (considering File as source)
5)When data is to be grouped based on certain field (considering File as source)
Advantages of using XSLT mapping
1)XSLT program itself defines its own target structure.
2)XSLT programs can be imported into SAP XI. Message mapping step can be avoided. One can directly go for interface mapping once message interfaces are created and mapping is imported.
3)XSLT provides use of number of standard XPath functions that can replaces graphical mapping involving user defined java functions easily.
4)File content conversion at receiver side can be avoided in case of text or html output.
5)Multiple occurrences of node within tree (source XML) can be handled easily.
6)XSLT can be used in combination with graphical mapping.
7)Multi-mapping is also possible using xslt.
8)XSLT can be used with ABAP and JAVA Extensions
Disadvantages of using XSLT mapping
1)Resultant XML payload can not be viewed in SXMB_MONI if not in XML format (for service packs < SP14).
2)Interface mapping testing does not show proper error description. So errors in XSLT programs are difficult to trace in XI but can be easily identified outside XI using browser.
3)XSLT mapping requires more memory than mapping classes generated in Java.
4)XSLT program become lengthier as source structure fields grows in numbers.
5)XSLT program sometimes become complex to meet desired functionality.
6)Some XSL functions are dependent on version of browser.
Advantages of Abap Mapping
1) A person comfortable with OOABAP can go for ABAP mapping instead.
Disadvantages of Abap Mapping
1) Abap knowledge is required
2) bit compexer

XSLT Mapping Related

Hello Experts,
In a scenario we are sending Purchase orders and Purhase Order change from SAP to SNC through XI.
Currently we are using Orders03 message type for IDOC.
The requirement is to use Orders05 message type for IDOC.
What changes would be necessary if we are to use Orders05 instead of Orders03
- On SAP side,
- in the XSLT mapping, and
- On XI side.
Thanks in advance,
Suraj

Hi,
What changes would be necessary if we are to use Orders05 instead of Orders03
- On SAP side,
==> you need to check your distribution model (BD64) and partner profiles (WE20) and adjust the settings there according to ORDERS05.
- in the XSLT mapping, and
==> This depends on what your XSLT looks like. If there are any ORDERS03 specific statements, etc. or the structure is "heavily" changed from ORDERS03 to ORDERS05 you need to adjust the XSLT accordingly.
- On XI side.
==> You need to import the ORDERS05 IDoc Metadata to XI Abap stack (IDX2). Also in IR you need to import the new IDoc, create message type and assign it to your mapping.

Kai
