Interface mapping in Interface Determination??

Hi friends..
iam doing IDOC to File..
in message mapping ,i changed the occurance of IDOC to unbounded and did the same in interface mapping also..
but in intrerface determination i am not getting Interface mapping ,i tried Extended interface mapping also..
please suggest me..
thanks and regards
Ram

Hi,
MultiMapping will not work for IDoc's.You need to use Idoc packaging for this,

Is this what you have done?

Interface determination : How to populate an Operation Mapping parameter

Hi experts,
I'm creating an interface determination, I have an Operation Mapping in it. This operation mapping has an inbound parameter. When Configurating this parameter I can choose between putting a constant or getting the value from a "container". Does anybody knows where this container will be? Is it possible to take the parameter from an export parameter from Integration Process(BPM)?
My interface:
BPM->IDOC
Regards
Gonzalo

Hi Stefan,
What I wanted is leaving the mapping outside the BPM, instead that I can leave it inside and the result will be the wanted. What you mean implies something similar.
I'm going to explain why, from the process dessign point of view, I want to leave the mapping outside.
1.-I send an IDOC from my ERP
2.-This IDOCs starts a BPM who, in a synchronous way, makes some updates in a DB.
3.- Functionally speaking this updates could return a 0 if OK or a -1 if NOK
4.-The BPM have to return an ACK to the ERP.
For constructing this ACK I need my original IDOC and the result of the updates (-1 or 0).
-If I put the mapping inside the BPM it will work (and that will probably be the final solution).
-But, for a better performance and dessign, I wanted to leave the mapping outside.
-I also want to know if the container in the interface determination we talked before can be used or what it means. (So let me know if you find out something about)
-The third reason is that I find interesting speak about this topics in the forum if you know what I mean :-D

No interface mapping in interface determination.

Hi ALL,
I am doing a simple File to File scenario. i have created all repository elements and activated them.
Now while configuring them in Directory at interface determination level I can enter
inbound Interface but in interface mapping i can´t see my Interface mapping object so i am getting error while testing scenario in Directory.
Can anybody tell me where exactly can be problem_
Please note that i have created interface mapping object in repository.
Thanks,
Atul

Hi Atul,
After creating your business system or business service, click on your BS and include the sender and receiver interfaces.

Interface Mapping not found in interface determination

Hello experts,
I am facing a very basic problem in my scenario which is stoping me from moving forward.
In interface determination when i select the inbound interface and then try to select the interface mapping, nothing is shown in the value help.
this is happening for all my scenarios even though the IR configurations are correct and I have also refreshed the cache.
What can be the problem? some installation problem, SLd prob or IR??? Please help as i am stuck!!
Thanks a lot in advance.
Yash

Hi Yash,
This is really very strange despite of most probable solutions.
Can you do one thing delete all configuration objects in Directory and activate. Now in repostiory remove mapping programs(message mapping and interface maaping) and activate.
Check the message types and data types and message interfaces.
Specially in message interfaces check whether correct message types are assigned. If so proceed with new mapping programs and activate the objects.
Also do a fresh configuration in ID, activate and execute your scenario.
One question, can you give a arrow diagram of scenario(e.g. file>xi>JMS)
Thanks,
Gujjeti

Interface-Determination: selecting an interface mapping not possible

Hi all,
I configured a scenario CRM (IDoc) -> XI -> Oracle database using BPM. Now I want to configure the same scenario without a business process. But in the interface determination it's neither possible to drag&drop the interface mapping, nor select it from the list. What's the problem?
Thanks in advance
Dominic

Dominic,
Like pointed by Michal , you have missed something somewhere.
1.Look into message mapping and check what the source and target message types are.
2. Look into Interface mapping and check if the message interfaces use the same message types as in the message mapping
3. Look into Interface determination and see if the source and inbound message interface is the same as in Interface mapping.
4. Make sure interface and message mapping is activated.!

Interface mapping not visible in interface determination

Hi,
when i create Interface determination in ID i could see Message interface and i could not my Interface mapping in that.
It is saying no objects found.
when i select enhanced instead of standard i could see my Interface mapping
plz give some idea reg. this
Thanks

Hi,
Check if there is any Interface mapping available between the Outbound Message Interface name and Inbound Message Interface name which you are using in your Interface Determination. Check carefully.

Non BPM process - no mapping object found in interface determination

I'm working on a non BPM synchronous process of kind HTTP=>XI=>RFC
I completed my design and onto config now. I created receiver determination for HTTP (no sender agreement) and receiver determination for RFC. In my interface determination I cannot find mapping objects.
I included in HTTP service, the request, sync and response message and RFC shows up naturally with RFC objects.
Any ideas. I've been struggling with this for over a day now.
Thanks.

Hi Parimala -
Just to clarify, for this scenario, here's what you need:
Design
1. One Message Interface (outbound/synchronous) corresponding to your HTTP request/response. You don't need a Message Interface nor Message Type for your inbound/synchronous RFC.
2. Request Mapping corresponding to request
- HTTP request Message Type to imported RFC (request)
3. Response Mapping corresponding to response
- RFC.response to some Message Type for the response
4. Interface Mapping
- interfaces: your outbound/sync Message Interface corresponding to HTTP request to imported RFC
- at bottom request tab, select your Request mapping (#2 above)
- at bottom response tab, select your Response mapping (#3 above)
Config
When you say the following:
>>>I completed my design and onto config now. I created receiver determination for HTTP (no sender agreement) and receiver determination for RFC.
Don't know if that's a typo, but there should only be one receiver determination based on your sending system/service, sending interface (HTTP one), and interface namespace.
Confirm the above steps and see if that helps.

Jin

Cannot find intf mapping in interface determination

Hi all,
I have these bpm steps 1. Trasnformation followed by send sync. i am trying to do a receiver JDBC sync call to oracle db.
1. in my transformation i have my:
1. Request message : messageA mapped to
2.Response message JDBC request and in my sync send step i have specifed,
1.Request Message : JDBC Request
2. Response Message :JDBC response
I have the following MI defined:
1. Abstract Async - Message A
2. Abstract Async - JDBC Request
3. Abstract Async - JDBC Response
4. Abstract Sync - JDBC Request
- JDBC Response
in my ID , when i configure for my interface determination, i cannot slect my inbound interface nor my interface mapping...It says no object found!
Although i activated them in my IR. I did Cache refresh,SLD cache..No Luck
Pls advice

Hi,
>in my ID , when i configure for my interface determination, i cannot slect my inbound interface nor my interface mapping...It says no object found!
Are you using a Business Service for your JDBC? if yes, did you assign the Message Interface to the Inbound of your Business Service.
As you are doing the transformation inside the BPM, there will be no need to select the Interface Mappuing in Interface Determinaytion.
Also, in your Intefrace/ Receiver Determination, the Sender message Interface will be 4. Abstract Sync - JDBC Request - JDBC Response . You also should have created an Inbound Synch Message Interace with JDBC request and JDBC Response and this should have been assigned to the Inbound Message Interface of your JDBC service.

ID : interface determination - Interface mapping (file- IDOC with externa)

Hi,
scenario : XML file read and mapped to Multiple IDOC in single message
all IR stuf are done but in the ID I cannot choose the mapping interface
here is a document of everything that was done...http://docs.google.com/Doc?id=dcsvs2n3_51jnrfw6
Thanks for the help

Hi Stepen,
Simple for Reciever Business System did you add the Idoc itself that was imported as Receiver Interface..
Just double click the Receiver Business System and Then click Receiver and See if the IDOC name exists other wise insert it...
Also In the Interface determinatin select the actual idoc that you imported and not the XSD....
Finally if the above doesnt work Try this since you are using ED create Message Interface and mention the xsd as MT.... and in Interface Determination use the Actual idoc imported and not ED ....

Abap proxy with attachments in enhanced interface determination/mapping

Hi guys.
We were receiving a abap proxy from ECC with a pdf attached in the header.
This was the scenario PROXY ---> FILE
We used the PayloadSwapBean Module in a Receiver File Adapter to get this document and put it in a FTP Server.
Now we have to make and improvement in the scenario and we have to generate two receiver interfaces so the scenario looks like this:
PROXY ---> FILE and JDBC.
So we have to use an enhanced interface mapping and an enhanced interface determination.
The problem is that with this enhanced interface determination/mapping the attached document is lost.
Any solution?
Thanks a lot.
Regards.

> The problem is that with this enhanced interface determination/mapping the attached document is lost.
I know there was an issue in early PI 7.1 SP versions. maybe you find a bug fix for this?
Otherwise report to SAP.

Operation mapping missing in Interface determination

Hi All,
In one of scenario Operation mapping is missing in Interface determination. The message type of the sender and the receiver interface are same ..Is it possible to have a scenario with out operation mapping if the sender and the receiver message type are the same.
Regards,
Raj..

Hello,
Is it possible to have a scenario with out operation mapping if the sender and the receiver message type are the same.
Yes, this is called a pass-through scenario. See blog below for an idea:
How to send any data (even binary) through XI, without using the Integration Repository
Hope this helps,

Add Interface mapping to Receiver Determination is not possible

Hello,
I create some scenarios from R\3 to BW and R\3 to File.
When I want to add Interface mapping to Receiver Determination is not possible.
Not to choose from list and not with copy and paste.
Any ideas?

Interface determination Issue in PI7.1

Hi ,
I am working on PI 7.1
Problem 1:
I am not able create any interface determination objects. There is a lock object created everytime I use the wizard. Unlocking the object and run the cache refresh has not helped..
I am able to create the interface determination manually after removing the lock. But now I am not able to associate a operation/interface mapping to the Interface determination . After I selected a message/service interface in the Interface determination, I clicked on the mapping option. The possible mapping was showed up on the list. But once I select one option from the list it does not show up in the interface determination. The field remains blank.
Problem 2:
I am unable to open the existing interface determination also. These interface determinations are present in the DEV environment.I have taken the system copy of the dev environment on the UAT environment.I am getting the below error when i try to open the interface determination

Hi Shilpa,
Ask your basis guys to check the SP level of JAVA components in system component information of your PI7.1 system............ask them to check for patches for your SP level of PI7.1 or upgrade to a higer SP level...........
Also try this from your PI IB webpage, go to Administration - JAVA web start administration - then click on execute link in the status window and do a reinitialization of your JAVA web start...........then close your ID and reopen your ID........then create your interface determination again in ID...........

When we will go for Ectended Interface Determination

extended interface determination example give me any one...
Regards,
Vinay

Enhanced (Mapping-Based) Interface Determination
Use
In an enhanced interface determination, you do not enter the inbound interfaces manually, but first select a multi-mapping. You get the inbound interfaces from the target interfaces of the multi-mapping. The inbound interfaces are determined at runtime during the mapping step.
You typically use an enhanced interface determination if the source message has an element with occurrence 0 ... unbounded (for multiple items of a data record) and you want multiple messages (for the individual items) to be generated at runtime.
For example, you want to split an overall booking for a trip comprising connecting flights into individual booking orders (for each leg of the trip).
You cannot realize this usage case with a standard interface determination (without using an integration process). A standard interface determination does allow you to specify multiple (N) inbound interfaces (with different mapping). In this case, N messages with the same payload and different receiver interfaces are generated from the source message before the mapping step; these are then transformed differently depending on the receiver interface. Therefore it is conceivable to write the mappings in such a way that the first mapping from the source message generates a message that only contains the first item, the second mapping generates a messages that only contains the second item, and so on. However, this no longer works if the number of items can vary with each new source message.
You can use an enhanced interface determination to configure a mapping-based message split for this usage case. You assign the interface determination a multi-mapping that has a target interface with an element with occurrence 0...unbounded. At runtime, the individual messages (for the individual items) are calculated in the mapping step. First, the individual messages are grouped into a bulk message. Then, the bulk message is transferred to the Adapter Engine. The Adapter Engine then splits the bulk message up into the individual messages (see figure).
Procedure at Runtime During Message Split
Note that both the bulk message and all individual messages each have a message header with a receiver interface (see figure).
Receiver Interfaces of Bulk Messages and Individual Messages
The header of the individual messages contains the relevant receiver interface. It is based on the definition of the multi-mapping. Note that the receiver interfaces of the individual messages may be different. The receiver interface of the bulk message is always InterfaceCollection (namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/System).
If the message split only results in one message, the original message structure remains the same. In this case, a bulk message containing just one individual message is not created.
You can also assign a multi-mapping with multiple different target interfaces to an enhanced interface determination (1:n transformation). Each target interface can contain elements with occurrence 0 ... unbounded.
Messages cannot be sent by using different Adapter Engines in a mapping-based message split. This affects configuration thus: All receiver agreements that have a receiver interface from the mapping entered in the key must only be assigned communication channels with the following adapter types:
-          RFC adapter
-          SAP Business Connector adapter
-          File/FTP adapter
-          JDBC adapter
-          JMS adapter
-          SOAP adapter
-          Marketplace adapter
-          Mail adapter
-          RNIF adapter
-          CIDX adapter
The adapters also have to all run on the same Adapter Engine.
Adapters developed by partners also support a mapping-based message split if they run on the same Adapter Engine.
Attachments from the original message are not appended to the messages resulting from the message split.
Activities
To execute a mapping-based message split, perform the following steps:
       1.      Integration Repository: Define the multi-mapping (see Developing Multi-Mappings for Message Splits).
       2.      Integration Directory: Define the interface determination.
Note the following:
○     The outbound interface of the multi-mapping must be entered as the sender interface in the key of the interface determination.
○     The interface determination type must be set to Enhanced.
○     Select the multi-mapping you defined previously from the Integration Repository.
To select the interface mapping, use the input help ( ).
The target interfaces of the interface mapping are displayed in the Inbound Interfaces frame.
The number of messages (for an inbound interface) created in the mapping step is displayed in the Occurrence column.

Raj

Enhanced Interface Determination in PI 7.1

Hi All,
My scenerio will work as follows
The changes in the process order will triggered by the client system .I will get the already converted XML file.I have used the file adapter in the sender side to pick the file.At the receiver side I am using the 3 custom BAPIs.I have used 3 message interface instead of multi-mapping as the inbound interfaces.
The Logic is like that:
If the Process order status is = 1 then call BAPI 1,if it 2 then call BAPI 2 & call BAPI 3.
Please tell me the following
1.Is there Enhanced Interface Detrmination option available in PI 7.1?If so then can I mention or call 2 BAPIs in one condition over there?Do I need to write ABAP condition?
2.Is Enhanced interface Determination possible when I have used 3 inbound interfaces instead of multi-mapping?
3.From my point of view I need the following in my scenerio
- 3 message mappings(Graphical Mappings),
- 3 interface mappings,
- 1 sender agreement,
- 1 receiver determination,
-1 interface determination(with 2 conditions in it),
-3 receiver agreements.
Am I right?
4.How many sender and receiver agreements do I need?
5.Do I need to go for Enhanced receiver determination?
Thanks in advance.

the same status node in the source file on which I will impose check will call the selective inbound interface based on the
status node.Is it?If so,then do I need to mention anything other than the check condition in XPATH e.g.do I need to mention any
mapping program or inbound interface (though I dont thing so but I am still confused) ?
Yes, apart from specifying the condition in the Condition Editor you also should mention the corresponding Inbound Service Interface and Interface Mapping (if any).
Condition will only cause the execution of that particular line and wont automatically call the mapping/ interface (unless these are specified in the Interface Determination).
Is XPATH the alternative option in condition editor which can be skipped though I would surely like to go through it as
much as possible?
XPATH is the easiest option to specify a condition....other option includes the use of a Context Object.
So as of now think that you cannot skip XPATH (for this particular requirement).
Once you become an expert in using a XPATH (which you can in a days period) you can try out for Context Objects.
Regarding Test Case:
There is no standard template for this.....i would suggest check with peers in your company.....many a times companies have their own templates for test cases alongwith the possible cases....then referring to those test cases you can build the cases for your scenario. Avoid a direct copy of the test cases.....many wont be relevant for your case.

Abhishek.

Complex interface determination fails for 0-N mappings

We have a mapping question for the following scenario in PI 7.1: One message needs to be mapped into two target structures, it comes from the same sender and goes to same receiver. We need to call two different BAPI in the same SAP end system simultaneously.
This is set up in one interface determination (same sender & receiver) where we use two different operation mappings with different receiver interface names. If the mapping have multiplicity 1, everything works fine and the message gets mapped to both receiver interfaces simultaneously. But, when the multiplicity of the mappings is 0-N (split mapping), then we get error message during interface determination phase:
Error when determining the inbound interface: Inbound interface found several times (for same sender and receiver) for the outbound interface http://sending/namespace.sndInterfaceName
How can we set up our scenario with two 0-N mappings without getting error message? One option would be combining two mappings in one, but this can not work in our case because of the high complexity.
Any comments appreciated. Thanks, Sanjay.
Edited by: Sanjay Gupta on Oct 21, 2010 10:50 PM

Thanks for taking the time to look into this. See my comments below.
1. Are you using multi mapping? Source Message type 1 and Traget message types 2 (added from messages tab in the mapping)
We have two mappings, both create only a single output type, however, they are split mappings, meaning the mapping result message multiplicity is 0-N. So the answer is NO, this are no multi mappings
2. At any time, can both the target messages be created or are they mutually exclusive?
both targets will always be created, they are NOT mutually exclusive
3. With in each message type that gets generated on the target side, is the occurance 1..1 or 1..unbounded?
Don't fully get the question, but I assume you ask if the mapping is defined as a 1:1 or 1..N mapping. The latter is true.
4. Is there any condition in the interface determination?
Answer is No.
5. How many operation mappings did you design.
We have two operation mappings, each containing a different mapping to the different receiver interface type.
Being said that, the ideal way should be, You need to create only one message mapping by adding multiple message types on the target side. I fully understand and agree with this statement, but due to the complexity of the mapping we need to separate it out into two mappings.
It is confusing, that the described scenario works if the multiplicity of the mapping objects used is 1, but as soon as the multiplicity is 0-N (when using a split mapping instead), we start getting the error message.
