ALE Audit

Hi All,
Please give me ur inputs on this scenario:
Scenario: FileXI- ECC - Data from File is converted to various IDocs and posted in SAP. (No BPM used)
Problem: Exception Handling > > We want a message back from SAP system telling us that out of 100 IDocs that were sent, n were posted successfully and rest failed along with the error description. How can this be achieved?
Possible Solution 1: Along with the IDocs a proxy is also sent to the SAP from XI. Proxy has a wait time and collects following information:
No: of IDocs posted successfully,
No of IDocs Failed and there reason.
And then an email has to be sent using Alert Message to the process head with the above information.
Possible Solution 2: ALE AUDIT is used on the receiver SAP system and the error messages are sent to XI and the messages are collected in another interface in XI and subsequent Alert Management is used to shoot email.
Which solution is better and why?
Regards,
XIer

Hey
>>Problem: Exception Handling > > We want a message back from SAP system telling us that out of 100 IDocs that were sent, n were posted successfully and rest failed along with the error description. How can this be achieved?
For this you need to use BPM coz File can't handle sync calls.
As far as i know,in both the cases you need to use BPM.
Note:ALEAUDIT is mainly used in a IDOC to IDOC scenario or IDOC to File scenario

Setup of ALE Audit in SAP Receiver System

Hello,
for a scenario JDBC -> XI -> IDoc, I have to setup ALE Audit in the receiver SAP sytem.
I have followed the steps in the How-To-Guide (Handle acknowledgements for IDocs):
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f6d2d790-0201-0010-9382-b50b499b3fbe
However I just want to have acknowledgements sent back to SAP XI for a specific type of IDoc (source coming from the database) and not all received IDocs as there are different sender systems sending IDocs (some of them via XI some of them directly).
Is there a way to configure ALE Audit in a way ALEAUDITs are sent just for specific sender systems / IDoc types. I want to avoid that the SAP XI system receives ALEAUDIT for all inbound IDocs.

Hey,
This document describe how the handle audit the the sender and the receiver systems are SAP system, when one of the sides (sender/receiver) is not SAP system,
than the configuration become much more complex.
As of XI SP18, there are ways to control ALEAUD,
for more information, read:

ALE audit in IDOC

In respect of ALE Audit in IDOC
1. All IDOC receivers send Acknowledgement.
2. All IDOC senders expect an Acknowledgement
3. Receiver communication channel is required for ALE Audit
4. Sender communication channel is required for ALE Audit
I believe 1 and 3 correct. Please confirm me.
thanks
kumar

Kumar,
I think 3 is correct , 1 & 2 also correct but based on condition, please see below.
 3 -sure
2 - Please refer the below doc ,Page 1
fyr :In general, acknowledgments have to be requested explicitly by the sender. However, this does not apply to IDocs. The following acknowledgments are sent back by default, unless the corresponding message type is maintained in an exception table.
1 - Please refer the below doc Page 1
fyr :IDocs only return acknowledgments if the receiver is configured for using ALE audit.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f6d2d790-0201-0010-9382-b50b499b3fbe
Please correct me if i 'm wrong!!!

ALE Audit - ALE logical system

Dear all,
we encounter an issue with an integration workflow that sends an ALE audit back to the R/3 system (Scenario:
R/3 -IDOC-> |XI-BPE| -HTTP->Partner)
Everything works fine except the ALE audit from the process to the R/3 System.
In the receiver agreement we use a header mapping to map the Sender.
Is there any difference between usual IDOC posting (for which our config works of course) and ALE Audit IDOCs?
Thanks in advance,
Helge

Hi Helge,
if you're using BPM in the XI
this is what you could to:
create a new processing code for inbound aleaudits
and change a little the standard function module
for inbound ale audits (the only change
would be a table in which you'd map
BPM names to just on partner profile)
this way if you'd be using a new BPM
you will only have to add one record to the table
and the processing will always be done correctly
with just one partner profile

ALE Audit System

Does ALE audit system work between a non-sap sending system and SAP as receiving system. If yes, then how is the "audit table" and "audit analysis program" step taken care of?

Maintaining distribution model for ALE audit.

hi,
I have to create a bcakground job in the receiver system to periodically send back the audit data to the sender system. To do the same i need to maintain a distribution model for ALe audit. For doing so i don't have the modal view XIDEMO in BD64. How to implement. Also in SM59 while maintaing RFC destination it says U6D_700 no longer exists. Please suggest how to get it resolved.
Regards
Akash SInha
Edited by: Akash Sinha on Dec 16, 2009 9:59 AM

Hello,
You can create your own model view in BD64. In the model view add message type ALEAUD with sender as your system name and logical system of your reciever.
Also configure the Partner profile in WE20, with outbound parameter ALEAUD and IDoc Type ALEAUD01.
Schedule the program RBDSTATE with the required parameters.

Ale audit steps

Hi,
Can anybody please explain ale audit steps.
1. i am sending idocs from send1 rece1. how i can i know the status of outbound idocs using ale audit
i want to know the process behinds this.

Hi Sudhakar..
ALE Audit Steps:
In the Sender system:
1. In the Model view (BD64) : Add the Message type ALEAUD
Note: Sender and Receiver has to be reverse..
Distribute the Model view to the Receiver system.
2. Audit data can be confirmed periodically back to the sending system, you have to use the program RBDSTATE to specify a variant and schedule a background job in the receiving system

Problem while sending back ALE audit Idoc

Hi,
I have a scenario in which an idoc is send from R/3 system to file service using XI. Here we have used BPM, in which Integraion process is the receiver of the idoc and then it is send to file system using file adapter. All the business services and Integration processess are created under Party. We expect XI would send implicit ALE audit Idocs to sender R/3 system.
I have created a communication channel pointing to sender R/3 system. After maintaining everything also it is throwing an error saying that unable to convert sender service to an idoc partner or ALE logical system.
Please help me in resolving this issue.
Thanks,
Vijay Kumar T.

Hi,
I have maintained adapter specific parameters for my integration process and those parameters are corresponding to sender business system parameters. As i told, i am using party and corresponding identifiers. My idoc is coming and successfully transmitted to file system but only problem is with acknowledgement that need to reach sender R/3 system.
Thanks,
Vijay Kumar T.

Setting up ALE AUDIT between XI and R#.

Hi Experts ,
I have a scenerio here. I know most of you will be asking me to google and search SDN blogs for the same , but let me tell you , I have already gone through most of them , specially the HOW TO manuals.
Mine is a R3 to XI to Web scenerio.
Initial rquirement is, R3 will trigger a delivery Idoc, and, if it reaches XI and failes in mapping do to any reason , it will trigger back to R3 the ALE AUDIT idoc. I have gone through the documents, but I cant make out how to I connect the failure of mapping of the specific idoc information , and tigger the ALE AUDIT idoc back to R3.
Can any one help me out with the scenerio, I just am unable to visualise the scenerio.
I have medium level experience in ALE idoc settings .
Regards,
Arnab.

There is no standard way to send ALE IDOC back to SAP R3 if mapping fails in middleware.
But this can be handled through BPM.I am not sure if you are from XI background or R3 background
The BPM design looks like this,
Receive( IDOCs from R3 ) -
> Block step ( Inside block Mapping-> If mapping success>.Send to Target application
If mapping Fails(System Error)>Mapping (MAP ALE IDOC with respective details)->Send IDOC to R3 system.
Hope thsi helps

Executing RBDSTATE for ALE-Audit Processing

Hi Experts,
when I execute RBDSTATE into my Z_Function for BOMMAT Inbound Processing, it doesn't find any IDoc for the ALE-Audit Processing :
"No data relevant to audit were selected."
Any idea ?
Regards,
David

Hi Gordon,
I've decided to create another Distribution Model, only for ALEAUD (why ? I don't know...).
Now the IDoc ALEAUD is created into the Target System, but with Status is 02 "Could not find code page for receiving system".

ALE Audit Messages PI2PI

Hi guys,
we are trying to set up a scenario, where 2 PI servers should send the audit IDOC's when they receive the messages from each other (B2B with Idoc Adapters). Are there any guides for this?
Regards,
Michael

HI,
The PI servers have the ABAP stack. But it works as middelware so you should not generated any Audit IDOC in PI server. If you want the acknowledgment between the PI servers then you can go for ABAP proxy with XI adapters.
Normally dealing with PI to PI server, there is direct communication between XI engines, so you can go for XI adapter. The XI adapter which is normally used to configure the exchange of messages with in an Integration Server, canbe extended to exchange messages between the two Integration Servers in the scenario.
Please verify if if you have the common SLD for both XI systems. its preferable to go for seperate SLDs

ALE Audit for a Partner Type LI (vendor)

Hi all,
I'm receiving an invoice from a 3rd party system throgh the inbound Idoc INVOIC01. This Idoc does not work with an Partner type LS (Logical System).
By the other hand I'm trying to make the configuration to request the acknowledgement through an outbound Idoc (ALEAUD01), I have read that this Idoc is only possible for Idocsof type Logical System (LS).
Do you know if is possible to use the Idoc ALEAUD01 for a Partner Type LI (vendor)?
I will appreciate any suggestion, regards!
Jaime S.

Yes, standard RBDSTATE program selects idocs from edidc for confirmation based on 'LS' partner.
SELECT sndprn mestyp mescod mesfct credat cretim docnum status
 FROM edidc INTO TABLE t_idoc_control_all
 WHERE upddat IN s_upddat
 AND sndprt = c_prt_logical_system
 AND sndprn IN s_sndsys
 AND mestyp IN s_mestyp
 AND mescod IN s_mescod
 AND mesfct IN s_mesfct
 AND status <> c_status_in_archive_reload
 AND status <> c_status_in_archived
 AND status <> c_status_in_orig_of_edited
 ORDER BY sndprn mestyp mesfct mescod credat cretim.
As suggested in separate thread, you can copy RBDSTATE into your own program and change this selection.

Custom IDoc & ALE AUDIT

All,
I have custom IDoc send data out to SAP XI and SAP XI will send to some third party.
My question is
1). Can i use ALEAUD01 message type to configure the ALEAUDIT for return confirmation from SAP XI after updation of third party.
2). I need steps or any document related to how to configure ALEAUDIT IDoc (Inbound)

Unable to convert the sender service to an ALE logical system

Hello,
file adapter > XI 3.0 > Idoc adapter > r/3 system
In sxmb_moni I receive "Unable to convert the sender service to an ALE logical system".
In we05 in r/3 system no Idocs are arrving. I have no problem with idoc > XI > idoc scenario to this same r/3 system (using same sld business system)
I read other topics on this error but it seems they all talk about an IDOC outbound interface.
What should I check?

Want to Ignore ALE acks in PI

folks,
ve done my research on SDN prior to posting ths Q.....
Scenario: Idoc-> PI
Q. I am trying to turn off ale audit (acks ) for IDOCs in PI. i Keep getting ths annoying warnings in my scenarios.
What 've done so Far...
In PI in the table IDXNOALE 've maintained the msg type of the idoc, the client(of sap sys) and the port(port of the Idoc in SAP system) details....
yet it doesn't wrk. can some1 thrw some light on ths pls...
've also heard that tr is some setting in the ID; in the Bus. Serv i've to Edit the Adapter Specific props...
can some1 ellaborate on that too (If that is the soln in the case) i did c some parameeters here like client, LS name, what shd b given here? the details pertaining to the SAP system??
hope i made sense.....
i knw ths is a simple config issue but ve been beating everywhr around the bush but not @ the rite spot...
Any Help is very much appreciated!
Thanks,
Hank

Hi Hank,
I think the way IDXNOALE works isn't really user friendly at all. You have to play around with it for a while before getting it to work the way you want it to.
I would proceed as follows...
1) First check if there aren't any ale acks setup in IDXNOALE that are in fact valid. There might be some there that were setup by someone else that worked on it before you.
2) If there are valid one's, make a note of them.
3) If there aren't any valid ale acks or you want to turn them all off then in IDXNOALE enter the sender port & client & click 'Do not request acknowledgement'. That should turn off all acks for that port & client.
4) Then click execute (or F8) to see the result.
5) It should say 'No acknowledgments requested for all message types for this system
Except for the following message types' and nothing else.
6) Then check if you still get the annoying warnings. You shouldn't get them. If you're still getting them then you need to verify that your Sender Port & Client are correct.
7) Lastly, if there were valid acks (steps 1 & 2), add them as exceptions to this. See 'Exception list' (Add Message Type) bottom half of IDXNOALE screen. You add the valid message types one by one & execute (F8) after each one you add. You should then see something like the example below. Then Idocs that are sent with the message types in the list below will show annoying warnings and any other message types won't show annoying warnings.
Example:
No acknowledgments requested for all message types for this system
Except for the following message types
ALEAUD
FIDCC2
ORDCHG
ORDERS
REMADV
