RFC to SOAP Interface - Problem in Request Message Mapping

Dear All,
We are working on RFC to SOAP Scenario i.e. pulling out data from an WebService from SAP via PI.
In Request Message Mapping, when the wsdl file is uploaded as Target Message, the wsdl request shows the nested elements like below.
<Request>
   <Request_New>
      <PAR1>xyz</PAR1>
      <PAR2>123</PAR2>
   </Request_New>
</Request>
But the desired Request should go like below.
<Request>
   <PAR1>xyz</PAR1>
   <PAR2>123</PAR2>
</Request>
Hence it gives an error saying that the tag Request_New does not exist.

Dear All,
Our target webservice cotains multiple methods.
The every method contains its corresponding request, response and SQL ecxeption as messages.
In case of request structures, every method (except crmPaymentReceived) contains more than 1 root element.
So while calling those methods having more than 1 root element, the additional header tag will always appear(not avoidable) in the request coming from SAP PI.
For Example,
Request Structure for method u2018isLoginIdExistu2019 (having more than 1 root element)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsi=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">
<soap:Body>
<ns1:isLoginIdExistRequest xmlns:ns1="http://netpricing">      -
>>>>>  u201CThis Header tag will always appear u201D
<isLoginIdExistin0>asp</isLoginIdExistin0>
<isLoginIdExistin1>1</isLoginIdExistin1>
</ns1:isLoginIdExistRequest>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
For this method, we get the error(saying that ns1:isLoginIdExistRequest xmlns:ns1="http://netpricing" does not exists).
Request Structure for method u2018crmPaymentReceivedu2019 (having only 1 root element)
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
<soap:Body>
<ns1:crmPaymentReceivedin0 xmlns:ns1="http://netpricing">false</ns1:crmPaymentReceivedin0>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>
For this method, we get the success response.
I tested their wsdl URL in XMLspy and wizdal(a wsdl testing tool), it shows request in the format having only root elements and not the header tags.
But header tags will always appear when header tag contains more than 1 root element.
Can anybody suggest me how do I tackle this?
Thanks in Advance.

  • Request Message Mapping Problem

    Hello friends,
    I am working in XI 2.0 and
    my senario is sap R/3->XI->File Adapter
    I take an idoc from the SAP R/3 system. and that comes properly to XI. I already created Data type, Message Type,
    Interface Type, Message Mapping and Interface Mapping in Desing. and all the configuration part.
    but when i send an idoc to XI system and check in SXMB_MONI at that time it shows me a green flag. means Inbound is Proper but It does not execute further steps.
    like Request Message Mapping, Call Adapter, Response.
    Can any one help me to solve this situation..
    Thanks in Advance.

    hi Shankar,
    I am able to solve the previous problem. by restarting my m/c.
    Now if any one know that how to configure RFC adapter.
    it always give me error like.
    <b>Attempt to start RFC adapter failed: com/sap/mw/jco/JCO$Record</b>
    And this is due to I am not able to connect to other R/3 system.

    when i register my program id to <b>Xmb2RfcService</b>
    then it gives me error when  i am testing my connection.
    <b>program Xmb2RfcService not registered / CPI-C error CM_ALLOCATE_FAILURE_RETRY</b>.
    so, can any one help me out to solve this problem.

  • Inbound Service Interface without Input Request Message

    Is it possible to create an Inbound Service Interface without Input Request Message?  We are trying to create a web service to get all records from a database table hence no input parameter is needed.  We have tried in both XI 7.0 and PI 7.1 but couldn't do it.  Is this scenario not supported by ESR or am I missing something?  Any hint will be appreciated.
    Regards,
    Jiannan

    In the scenario I described in my initial post the table structure is only needed in the response message to receive the data. 
    For a web service generated from a RFC function module using the service creation wizard (SE80) a table parameter is automatically included in the request message.  I can understand this as the wizard can not figure out if the table parameter is needed in the request message or not.
    I have tried to use the service creation wizard to generate a web service from the function module RFCPING that has no input or output parameters.  As shown in below WSDL segment the WSDL does allow not having any input or output parameters.

  • Request Message mapping in SXMB_MONI for File - RFC - File without BPM

    Hi ,
    In my File-RFC-File scenario, the messages are processed successfully.
    but when i look into the SXMB_MONI for File to RFC step, the records are present only till the  Message split According to Receiver List and not able to see the records from Request Message mapping step onwards.it contains
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
      <ns1:Z_PI_LOTUSNOTES_UNIFORM xmlns:ns1="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions" />
    in my mapping for the receiver RFC i have not done the mapping for all the fields. few fields i have disabled. whether this could create a problem in message mapping. pls let me know what needs to be done.

    Is it only for this scenario that the above display issue is occuring or is it for all scenarios?
    If onlt a particular Pipeline steps are displayed then you can check what is the TRACE level set in SXMB_ADM --> Integration Engine Configuration --> and check if the TRACE parameter is set to at least 2 (max is 3 which will ensure that your DB will get full quickly)

    Any help in resolving these issues is greatly appreciated.
    Thanx,
    Homiar.

    Hallo Homiar,
    to the first problem:
    Do you get the same error, if you test the mapping in the Integration Builder:Design? I mean, you can download the XML instance which is entered into the Message
    Mapping  zMsgMap in the Integration Engine Monitor (R/3 Transaction SXMB_MONI) and use this XML in the test environment of the Message Mapping in the Integration Builder:Design.
    to the second problem:
    It looks like that the  Message Mapping xMsg_mapping could not be found by the Integration Engine. You can try to reactivate the Message Mapping in the Integration Builder. This is done for example by changing the description of the corresponding Message Mapping object and saving and activating the object.

  • Message getting struck at Request Message mapping

    Hi All,
    In our interface we have Proxy to HTTP scenario.  When we trigger data from R/3 system the data is getting blocked at SAP XI system.
    In SXMB_MONI when we see the status of the message it doesnot show any error status flag comes with a grey dot .
    Generally as per the XI Message process flow it should be some thing like this
    Inbound message
    Receiver Identification
    Interface determination
    Message Branch According to receiver list
    Request message Mapping
    Technical Routing
    Call Adapter
    Response
    When we expand and see the message monitoring it shows the following steps -
    Inbound message
    Receiver Identification
    Interface determination
    Message Branch According to receiver list
    there is no error messages and you dont see any steps in monitoring after this.
    Trace level is set to 3 and also set trace enable for sync interfaces.
    Please let me know if some one faced this issue and how to resolve this.
    Regards,
    Reddy
    Edited by: Nanda kishore Reddy Narapu Reddy on Apr 8, 2008 5:31 PM

    Hi Srinivas,
    If receiver determination gets fail then it should give a error in SXMB_MONI messages.
    In the trace messages of the "Message Branch According to Receiver list" step in SXMB_MONI we are getting the details of the receiver and also the Communication channel need to be used also correctly.
    I would like to stress that after this step in sxmb_moni it should trigger "Request message mapping" step  but it is got getting triggered.
    Pls let me know if some one faced this issue or is it because of some cache related issue which is stopping the call to trigger message mapping.
    Reagrds,
    Reddy

  • Problem in 1toN message mapping,payload not populated but file created

    I am doing 1:N multimapping From Proxy  to File scenario .Proxy send three types of data all having same stucture but depending on the value of First field we split the whole stucture in 3 parts on target side and generating three files on taget side.During testing values get Passed from the SXMB_MONI(processed) and we get whole payload data upto

    Hi,
    It is not the issue of the datatype for outbound message for jdbc sender.
    I have done the Graphical mapping and mapped the sourse message type to target message type (which is a rfc xml format request message type).
    But when all the IR and ID objects activated and it comes to Runtime (integration server) then it is unable to execute the mapping in the xi pipeline step "Request Message Mapping" and generating a blank xml element as i have described earlier in my message.
    What should i do or where should i check for the possible reasons and what could be the solution for this issue.

    Hi Mike,
    What I suspect is, you get a null pointer exception because the XML tag name which you are trying to retrieve, has a namespace. Could you please instead try to use:
    getElementsByTagNameNS(java.lang.String namespaceURI, java.lang.String localName)
              Returns a NodeList of all the Elements with a given local name and namespace URI in document order.
    Let us know if it works.

  • Problem in Graphical message mapping

    Hi all,
                I am doing an HR file to file interface.I am struck in message mapping.Actually my source message type contain four structures i.e infotype00 ;infotype01;infotype02;infotype05;every infotype has one PERNNO,BEGDA&ENDDA along with other fields.in target i have to extact employee recors from these 4infotypes.Target structre is :EMPLOYEE
                                     fields...
    Now I had to generate as many employee as many unique PERNNO i.e if all four infotype has same PERNN then it is considered detail of one employee if any infotype has diff.PERNNO then we have to create one more employee record for that infotype.I used a custom functionUNIQUE and get all unique infotype then on the basis i was creating employee.i.e if 3 unique PERNNO then 3 employee record has to be created.It was working fine,But one new requirement came that I have to compare BEGDA of all infotype and if any infotype has BEGDA more than current date then for that PERNNO i dont have to create Employee records.i.e suppose for PERNNO 8 infotype0 has BEGDA more than current date then i dont have to create employeerecord for PERNO 8.This new requirement i am unable to implement.please guide me how to proceed further i.e after getting the unique PERNO.Please do the needful as its very urgent.
    regards,
    Saurabh

    Hey saurabh,
           once you are able to obtain unique PERNNO,
        you need to use two date functions.
    CurrentDate: It will return the system date(todays date).
    CompareDate: It will take as input two values(as dates) and gives output based on their values.
    output of comparedate funtion will be:
    -1 if second value is greater than 1st value.
    0 if second value is equal to the first.
    1 if second value is less than the first value.
    what you can do is take currentdate function as first input for comparedate.
    BEGDA as second input for comparedate.
    if the value is -1(i.e BEGDA is greater than current date SUPPRESS the node or else create the node)
    make sure the format of current date and BEGDA are same.

  • Problem in activating message mapping

    hi all,
    When I try to activate the message mapping, it is saying that my namespace does not belong to my s/w component,
    So I checked my namespace, it was not active. I tried activating it but it says user pi7gen is currently editing the namespace.
    But no one is logged into the PI system except me (I checked it in sm12). Kindly help me with this issue.
    Thanks and Regards

  • Problem in Graphical message mapping.Need UDF to add array based on some co

    Hi All,
    I have been struck in message mapping.Below i am explaining it,
    I have two input array,
    one array lets call  X [24]
                                    [25]
                                     [26]
                                     [24]
                                    [25]
    other array is Y [10]
                           [11]
                           [12]
                           [13]
                           [14] .length of both the array will be same .
    Now I want the output as: if there is any same value in first array i.e array X then corresponding value of second array should be added.i.e in array X if 24 is coming as twice (1st and 4th) then 1st and 4th value of array Y will be added.So here there will be only three output as Z[23]
                                                      [25]
                                                      [12]
    Please guide me if posiible .I tried to use the for loop but  its not working as the value of X is repeating.

    Hi,
    Tru this..
    public void test(String[] a,String[] b,ResultList result,Container container){
    int flaga,flagb;
    for(int i=0;i<a.length;i++)
         flaga =0;
         for(int j=i+1;j<a.length;j++)
              int p =  Integer.parseInt(a<i>);
              int q =  Integer.parseInt(a[j]);
              if(p==q)
                   flaga =1;
                   int c = Integer.parseInt(b<i>)+Integer.parseInt(b[j]);
                   String d = new Integer(c).toString();
                   result.addValue (d);
    if (flaga ==0)
    flagb=0;
    for(int q =i-1; q>=0;q--)
         if(Integer.parseInt(a<i>) == Integer.parseInt(a[q]))
              flagb = 1;
    if (flagb == 0) result.addValue((b<i>));
    I have tested with the same input... it is working for me
