Add 2 container variables in control step BPM

Hi All,
I have a scenario where I need to add 2 container variables in control step under AlertMessage and I am using under exception branch
Control Step
StepName: XXXX
Action : XXXX
AlertCategory: XXXX
AlertMessage: ?
I am successful putting one container variable in alert message with &AAAA& but I want to add another variable values &BBBB& as well.
When I tried to keep variables as &AAAA& and &BBBB&..I can return code 99 in sxi_cache.
How can I achieve this with BPM..I am using sap pi 7.0

may be i need to explain more clearly..
I have 2 container variables with simple type which holds 2 different payload values.
Under exception branch I have a control step to throw alert. In this I need to pass alert messages with these 2 varaibles.
As I said earlier I am able to pass successfully one container variable value but when I insert the second variable it is not picking up and when I check sxi_cache the IP return was 99 which means some error occured while assiging these values.( I tried in different ways)
But when I inserted has &AAAA& and &BBBB& then reuton code was 0 but whn I run scenario it is not populating both values
Can anyone please help me how I can populate 2 variable values in alert message under control step.

Alrt with field Lelvel Info - By using Container Operation and Control step

HI,
I have developed File to File scenario from /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated
I created Integration Process in IR with two BPM steps Receive and Send step.
Since I need a filed level info on alerts...I have included Container Operation and Control steps in between receive and send like..
Receive --- Container Operation --- Control step -
Send
And now I have created the Alert category in Alrtcatdef and used the same category in control step.
I have tested the above scenario with error message ( with mapping fail )...But I am unable to find the alert in the system?!!
---S

HI Stallin
Did alert generated by BPM itself. Check with BPM workflow.
Another thing while generating alert from BPM, standard alert element will not work with BPE engine. Create elements for the same
Thanks

Not able to give multiline container variable in transformation step.

Hello,
I'm doing a simple collect pattern in BPM.
I have three container variables, one- the source interface, second the multiline of source interface and third-the target interface.
Now, i have block in which i have the exception and deadline steps and then a loop in which i have my receiver which collects the message and gives it to the container to keep it to the list. Outside the block i have my transformation step which takes the relevant interface mapping. When i try to give the multiline container variable the box turns red, but of give the normal source container variable it accepts it.
If i do a check by F7, Expression must not return a multiline value.
The scope of the container variables is maintained as Process.
What could be wrong, please help.
Thanks and regards,
Akhil

hi akhil,
think in transformation it sees source messages and target messages.
if u have n:1 scenario then n interfaces to one interface right
thats is each interface will have one message type
so if u are using interace mapping in transformation it is expecting n interface variables to one interface variable.
it will display n source messages to one source message jsut check.
so transformation step is expecting one n sub message types to be embedded in one message type
<messages>
<message 1>
<meessage n>
</messages>
this one is mapped with one XML target messgae
so if u have n different messages see that u compress them in to one message type like the above and give it in trasnformation step.
if you have n different messages then u can alwasy go for n different interfaces to one single interface
then u can see in tranformation step n diff source messages and one target message
was just confused with reciever step which allows multiline receivers

Dynamic alert messages in BPM control step not getting created

Hi All,
in transaction ALRTCATDEF, i have specified dynamic text for my alert category...........
in my BPM there are 3 control steps.....and i am using this alert category in all of my BPM 3 control steps..... but the alert messages in my 3 control steps are different.........But these alert messages(which i am giving in BPM) is not coming in the alert mail in alert inbox but it gives the common message in long text(which i gave in long text while defining the alert category)......
So can anybody suggest me why my BPM alert message is not coming in the alert generated by BPM control step in the alert inbox of runtime workbench.
Thanks,
Rajeev Gupta

Hi Rajeev,
Please check if you have done the following steps:-
check the dynamic text box available in alrtcatdef transaction, while creating the alert.
In the bpm, create a variable of simple type in a container
Included the container operation and the control step.
For the container operation - give the right simple type variable container
For the control step, specify the correct alert category (this should be the one for which the dynamic text is enabled)
The alert message that you specify here should have text which will be seen when the alert raised
*To capture the dynamic alert in the alert message, which is caught by the container step in the bpm....you will have to give the name of the simple type variable
between two ampersands(&).
"But these alert messages(which i am giving in BPM) is not coming in the alert mail in alert inbox but it gives the common message in long text(which i gave in long text while defining the alert category)......"
On checking the dynamic text option in the alert category defined, you will not have the option of giving a message in the long text. So, there is no way that the long text can be seen - 'cuz you are not defining it in the first place! Hence, either you have given the wrong alert category in the bpm or have not cheked the dynamic text option.

Container variables in User decision Step in BPM

Hello,
I am using User decision Step in BPM.
When i use only text in "Title for Display" the BPM is activated successfully and Status in SXI_CACHE also shows 0.
If I use container variables in "Title for Display" the BPM is activated successfully but status in SXI_CACHE shows 99.
It shows the below error
"Problem updating an integration process with object ID 073AF2C620F43E839B2903344DEE29BB. Symbol 'CE/KO' expected at position 1 in expression ''
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Shabari

Hi Shabari, did you follow the steps for declaration of variables as in [SAP help for user decisions|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/42/c2a19fb4511d65e10000000a1553f6/content.htm]? How did you define your variable?
Maybe discussion [in this thread|BPM activation Error in SXI_cache; can help, it is unanswered though.

XPATH Predicate for container variable of simple type in BPM

Hi Experts,
I have read various threads and blogs with this topic and as I couldn't get a clear view, hence I am raising it here. In my BPM, I am collecting idocs by means of a finite loop. I have used a receive step, container step(to append the idocs) and another container(to increment the counter_variable) in a loop. I want to run the loop for the condition: counter_variable<=3 whereas 'counter_variable' is a container variable of 'simple XSD type(XSD: integer)'.
All the blogs and threads have demonstrated like how to use the EX operator with container variable of type 'Abstract interface'. But how can i incorporate the above scenario for a container variable of simple xsd type ? Please share your ideas.
Regards,
Laawanya

so this is what you need to do,
1. in your loop have a container operation that will increment your simple integer variable each time a message come in.
2. for your loop the condition will be, left operand (simple integer variable) /= (not equal) 3 (Constant)
Ref: SAP BASIS (SWCV) -> http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns -> Integration Process -> BpmPatternCollectPayload
the only difference here will be the loop condition to be altered as i have mentioned above.

BPM and own container variables and their usage in transform

Hi folks,
I have a question about the usage of own container variables within the transform step of a BPM.
I want to know whether I can get the actual content of such a container variable within the mapping being done in the transform step.
I have been looking into this forum upon related topic(s) but somehow they all seemed to go about being able to get standard values like messageID etc within the transform step and NOT about getting your own variables ... It is clear that getting those standard variables will not work directly ( not without actually getting them into an XML payload before entering the BPM) ...
So basically I want to define global BPM variables, populate them with some content during BPM execution and then at some point reference those container variables in the mapping ( prob via java code ) in a transform step ... Is that supported ?
Regards,
Steven

Hi,
>>>So basically I want to define global BPM variables, populate them with some content during BPM execution and then at some point reference those container variables in the mapping ( prob via java code ) in a transform step ... Is that supported ?
no, this is not possible
you can only compare those varabiels with some of your message tags (in a loop step for example)

How to Access a BPM container variable in XI graphical message mapping

Hello XI BPM and Mapping experts,
is it possible to access a BPM container variable from an graphical mapping?
If yes, how ?
We need this for the following scenario:
IDOC to BPM.
BPM transforms and sends transformed IDOC to fileadapter
If both steps are successful a STATUS.SYSTAT01 IDOC should be send back to SAP-ISU with status 06.
If one of these steps fails the status in the SYSTAT01 should be set to 05. (Exception branch of block)
We want to avoid to write 2 mapping programs for mapping the SYSTAT01.
Instead we would like to use a BPM Container Variable which contains the status.
In the mapping for the SYSTAT01 we want to use this Container Variable.
Is this possible?
Thanks for soon answers.
Regards Marlies

Hi Marlies,
Is not possible to acces a BPM container variable from graphical mapping. For other hand, you can to use runtime variables for this purpose.
You could create an abstract interface with a message type having a single node with the required value and using this message in other mapping.
Best regards
Ivá

Can we set a default value for the container variable in BPM?

Can we set a default value for the container variable.?
Suppose if i have a loop step and i have given a container variable i=5 as end condition.What value will it take during its first execution?Can we set the value for container before a recieve step?

Hi
Define Container Variable of Type integer and Category Simple Type .Use Condtion in Loop.
In Container Operation Step Assign value and Use Expression to
Increase or Decrease Valus according to your operation.
look Pattern 4 in this blog to understand Container Operation

Reg:Container variables in BPM

Hi...
I have done one scenario with BPM.
In that i have used the below steps.
1. Fork with 2 receive steps.
2. and two container steps for the 2 recieve steps ( vara= "I" for the first recieve step, and varb= "S" for the second receive step)
3.wait -- for 1 min
4. switch (if vara ="I" and varb="S", then branch 1 should execute, if vara="I",then branch 2should execute else we need to cancel the process)
the above steps i have used and executed the scenario. It is working fine. BUt i am having problem with the containers.
I am not able to satisfy the condition for [if vara="I" and varb="S",]
The switch is not going to check the above conditon because whenever the file is recieved the container variable will get updated and wait for 1 min and will go for switch contion. So here i can check only for single condition at a time.
Can you please help me how to check the both the container variables at an time..?
Regards,
Leela

Can you please help me how to check the both the container variables at an time..?
So when the Switch Step is executed are both the variables filled with the required values (I am not able to understand your query clearly)....if both the variables are filled then in the condition editor you can define the condition based on both the values (use And...it will be Insert Expression ...for executing Branch 1)
It will be something like var1 = I And var2 = S .....while selcting the left operand select the appropriate message.
If you are on 7.1 then create two condition variables representing var1 and var2.
Similarly when defing condition for Branch2 it will be only var1 to be used.

Abhishek.

What is a container variable in BPM (Exchange Infrastructure)?

In BPM scenario with Exchange Infrastructure, I have come across container variable. What is this container variable? How it is used in BPM?
In another instance I read that to trigger a alert in BPM I have to create a container variable. So I have another question, What steps I have to follow to create a container variable and trigger alert?

BPM Exception Handling control step

Hi,
Does anybody have any idea, whats the variable we need to pass in the control step of exception handling in BPM? and how to map the error message back to the RFC Response.
I had Transformation step, in that mapping is also there.
Is there any ideas??.
Thanks,
Raj.

Hi,
The requirement was to send the exception that occured to a target (say file).
insert a block for the exception
You cannot place an exception step without a block right... thats what i mean by the above statement.
Now, just after the exception has taken place, if i put a transformation step, and a send step, you will be taking care of sending the exception message to the target.
how to build the exception message ? It should map from what?
You could build a data type for the exception.
In the mapping, you could map it to constants. For ex:
if you build your DT as
<excep>
<code/>
<desc/>
</excep>
You could map the description to a constant string "timeout".
After this, the send step will send the message to the file, through the abstract interface that you create.

Smitha.

Accessing a BPM Container Variable Inside A Mapping

Hi
Is It possible to access a BPM container variable (Simple type say a String )in a Mapping (message mapping). This mapping is present in the same BPM itself. Is it possible to access the variable in the mapping.
My basic objective is i need to read and update values between My message mapping and Bpm container simple type variable. I read a value from BPM variable and then update this variable and again write it back to the BPM container variable and then again read it in a loop . Is it possible to do this exchange.

Hi,
The only way is to do with mapping. Totally you need to add your conatiner values into message and then thru mapping you can access.

UCCX8 Is There a Sesion Variable that contains the Call Control Group ID

Hello,
Is there a session variable that contains the Call Control Group ID of the trigger that called the script?
-Lauren

Hi Lauren,
sorry, after two hours of analysing call hierarchies and running debugs, I gave up. I can't see any way of getting that value programmatically, in other words, I don't see any public field or method that would yield the desired value.
However, if you want to use this only for debugging purposes, then getting the contact using the Get Trigger Info step, assigning it to a variable named contact (of type Contact) then calling the following method on it:
contact.getTask().getTrigger() (which automatically calls the toString() method) would return a String similar to this - and it contains the ID of the Call Control Group apparently:
"ContactApplicationTrigger[time=1356102368509,locale=en_US,cfg=JTAPITriggerConfig[schema=ApplicationTriggerConfig,time=2011-09-14 18:28:25.0,recordId=414,desc=Cisco JTAPI Trigger,name=82152,type=Cisco JTAPI Trigger,appName=TRAPPA,enabled=true,sessions=5000,idleTimeout=5000,locale=en_US,parms={},taskGroups=[],controlClass=class com.cisco.call.CallControlChannel,controlGroupId=1,contactGroups=[GroupInfo[class=com.cisco.dialog.DialogChannel,id=0]],dn=82152,redirectCSS=redirecting.party,cmDeviceName=TRAPPA_82152,cmDeviceInvalid=false,cmDescription=TransRouting IVRA,cmDevicePoolUUID={978D6B59-356E-FC92-81A9-3AAE9F843120},cmDevicePoolName=DP_Main_C,cmCallingSearchSpaceUUID={87083019-FEBF-9B48-742B-7658396D1D5C},cmCallingSearchSpaceName=CSS_mobily_normal_HelpDesk_IS,cmLocationUUID={29C5C1C4-8871-4D1E-8394-0B9181E8C54D},cmLocationName=Hub_None,cmPartitionUUID={10003B1B-F235-16A7-927D-01EB3DCCB57C},cmPartitionName=P_operatori,cmVoiceMailProfileUUID=,cmVoiceMailProfileName=None,cmCallPickUpGroupUUID=,cmCallPickUpGroupName=,cmDisplay=,cmExternalPhNumMask=,cmFwdBusyVM=false,cmFwdBusyDest=,cmFwdBusyCSSUUID=,cmFwdBusyCSSName=None,cmAlertingNameAscii=,cmPresenceGroupUUID=ad243d17-98b4-4118-8feb-5ff2e1b781ac,cmPresenceGroupName=Standard Presence group],contact=JTAPICallContact[id=16548,implId=3206772/2,state=STATE_ANSWERED_IDX,inbound=true,App name=TRAPPA,task=38000443987,session=17000062888,seq num=0,cn=82152,dn=82152,cgn=0725099603,ani=0725099603,dnis=null,clid=null,atype=REDIRECT,lrd=78866,ocn=78866,route=RP[num=82152],OrigProtocolCallRef=000000000030EE740228F81300000000,DestProtocolCallRef=null,TP=81122]]"
Looks like the cfg field cannot be accessed, but the automatic toString() method is kind enough to dump all this information.
Hope this helps.

Using Standard Container Variables in Email Alerts from BPM

Dear All
While creating alert categories from ALRTCATDEF we have a Long Text Tab where we can use Container Variables like SXMS_MSG_GUID ,SXMS_RULE_NAME, SXMS_ERROR_CAT , SXMS_ERROR_CODE etc create the mail contents. We can also display the message passed by the BPM by using the variable
ALERTDYNAMIC_SHORTTEXT , ALERTDYNAMIC_LONGTEXT .
In my case when I call the alert category from the BPM , the message passed by the BPM is displayed through the ALERTDYNAMIC_LONGTEXT in the alert inbox , but I am not able to utilize the other container variables (like SXMS_MSG_GUID ,SXMS_RULE_NAME, SXMS_ERROR_CAT ) for displaying the messageid ,error category etc. Using these variables for alerts invoked from BPM results in Blank Values for all the container variables.
If the alert is not invoked from BPM these variables are getting populated.
My question is is there a way by which we can utilize these variables for Alerts thrown from BPM.
regards
Nilesh .
