Seeburger BIC Mapping Designer Material & Further Validations

Hi Guys,
I was hoping if someone can point me to more material on BIC Mapping designer as only thing i have the standard PDF which came with it. However I need to do more stuff e.g. enhance validations and put a few more checks in. Was wondering If one available?
regards

Hi Mimranacc,
Can you please give me an example of the kind of validation that you would like to do?
SEEBURGER do have separate integration tool called SEEBURGER BIS(Business Integration Server).Check with any of your friends who are working on that.They can help you out for more material.Some times the content tend to change based on the version of BICMD do check that also .I don't think its available on SDN as its SEEBURGER proprietary content.
Thanks,
Ram.

Seeburger BIC Mapping Designer: Special Character (German Umlaut) Problem

Hi,
i have created a Mapping with Seeburger Mapping Designer (Invoicd96a to XML). I started the test environment, compiled the mapping and converted the Message to XML. I got a syntax error in the destination file so i added the setSourceEncoding("UTF-8") option and i got a working xml file.
My problem is that all special characters, will be displayed as ? So the word "Beträge" will be converted to "Betr?ge".
What i have to di, to fix this problem ?
Thanks in advance

hi,
i have to create an Edifact to XML Mapping with the BIC Mapping Designer. After creation i can deploy this mapping to SAP XI and calling it by using it as module in the specified adapter.
My idea is that the mapping should working correct in test enviroment before i deploy to SAP PI.
Perhaps anyone has an idea.
regards
Matthias
P.S.: A few month ago i had a similar problem with the conversion agent and it was just a "secret" checkbox

How to import the IDOC into Seeburger BIC mapping designer

Hi Ramesh
BIC is a tool from Seeburger to transmit the XML data to EDI and EDI to XML.
Seeburger mapping programs for transferring the XML data to EDI data and EDI data to XML data, but not for the structure changing, in the IR your mapping program is same.
Receiver side you need AS2 Adapter for converting data to EDI target structure. we have many EDI versions are available, for converting the EDI to XML or vice versa AS2 gives some default mapping programs, xml to EDI or EDI to XML convertion done through this mapping programs.
Seeburger AS adapter provider provides some mapping programs(for example EDI4010 version or other), if you are using the same EDI version(4010) then you can use that mapping programs, if the version is different then we can manually generate the Seeburger X2E and E2X mappings for the corresponding version and signal(850 or 810 or ..), for this seeburger provides the mapping designer tool (BIC), there we can develope the X2E and E2X mapping programs and configure this in the Seeburger work bench.

Mappings_user.sca - Seeburger BIC Mapping Designer

Hello experts,
I have read SAP note 1353318 about how to start the BIC adapter on PI 7.1.
Question: where do I get the file "mappings_user.sca" from? It says it is on the BIC Mapping Designer-CD, but the installation files I received via the Internet - I do not have the CD.
Can I somehow create that file with the BIC Mapping Designer that I have already installed?
Thank you for any hint you can give me!
Best regards,
Peter

Hey peter,
go to your seeburger installation directorys bin folder and check for bicdesigner.ini file and add the below cmd
CmdLnArgX=-ProjectAdmin where X will be 4 (i.e. count of cmd line agrs used ) .
Then start the bic mapping designer tool and go to tools option there you can see a new option called Assign Projects to SDA, after that you can create a deploy file..This is new option provided by seeburger bic so that only project Admin can have rights of creating the deploy file.
If you still face any problems post the same..

Seeburger BIC mapping designer : querry

Hi,
 We have installed the SeeBurger BIC adapter. I have a querry regarding the mapping that we specify as a parameter to the BIC module in the modules tab of the communication channel.
 Are there standard mappings provided with the installation for EDI -> XML and vice versa , and we simply need to provide the name of the mapping that needs to be used or do we need to develop the mappings from scratch using the BIC mapping designer.
 If the first case is true then how to get the names of all the mappings that are provided so that we can make out which one do we need to use. If it is not so please help me with the BIC mapping designer manual path on the installation as we are not able to figure out the path to the manual.
Thanks in advance,
Pravesh Puria.

Hi Babu,
1."you can use these mappings in "Modules" of your seeburger communication channel."
>> can we use these developed mappings with BIC MD in any communication channel of Seeburger like OFTP,FTP ,AS2 ,BIC or we need to use those mapping with only BIC communication channel?
>>> Yes Babu,You can use this in all communication channel modules .
one thing, "BIC" is not a seeburger adapter type.
You need to deploy BIC Mappings in your XI server.
You have to refer Seeburger manuals for this.
2.lets say if we have developed mappping with BIC MD ,then do we need to develop mapping with XI mapper too or its not needed?but if we do mapping with Xi then data format will be of xml but it needs to be converted to/from EDI ,so how it can be possible just with XI maping and no BIC MD mapping?
>>> No, You Cannot do it in only with XI Mapper.
First you need to use BIC Mapping in modules which will convert your EDIFACT format to EDI-XML.
After this you need to Apply XI Mapping Which will Convert EDI-XML to your IDOC-XML.i.e. your mapping program.

Error in the Seeburger-BIC mapping designer

Hello,
I have changed the source structure of my XML journal. I have added few extra fields to the source.
After the change my mapping started giving me errors like below
" [Error:ID=1017;LEVEL=1] BICMapping: runMapping() FATAL ERROR: null
[Description:ID=1017] BICMapping: FATAL ERROR: Internal Fault. Class could not be load or instatiated. Check Installation, access rights.
[Error:ID=not set;LEVEL=1] null"
The strange part is the error does not occur always.
There are two mapping with the same source structure . Say A and B
Out of these A works perfectly fine but B has a problem.
One more strange thing that I observed is.:If I run mapping B and if it goes in error , it can be redecided in the following way to be successful
1.Run mapping B and it goes to error.
2.Now run mapping A .It will be successful
3.Now redecide the mapping B that you ran in step1 now even B goes on success.
If anyone of you know the reson for such kind of behaviour , please reply to my post.
Regards,
Aruna

Hi,
If possible execute the mappings in BIC designer tool instead in PI...
if still some error occurs check the source data is as expected or not also the new line characters handled properly...
probably error can be due to new line handlings..

Reg: Seeburger BIC Mapping Designer

We are using BIC to resolve hierarchy issue.. As you know we can not pasre more than 2 hierarchy levels in XI.
we have a text file which contains all the records in one row..
<Recordset>
 <Record00> 1-unbounded
 <Field>
 <Field>
 <Record01>1-unbounded
 <Filed>
 <Field>
I did following steps in BIC...
Created Datatype in INHOUSE to user project
Edit structure and save
Export structure (msg_....xml)
Run CreateXMLmessage, source file msg_....xml, target file XML_....xml)
Import XML.xml to User Project
Run CreateMappingXMLToEdi source file msg_....xml, target file X2E_....xml
Import X2E.xml to user project..
Run X2E Map by giving our source text file and output will be in xml.
Problems:
 In 5th Step. while importing XML to user project i am getting auto correction window which is changing field occurances and false to true etc.
 In 8th Step i am getting errors with conversion and i got the output xml file but with default values which i have given while creating datatype.
I have gone thorugh all the links related to seeburger.
I would really appreciate if anyone thorw some light on the same.
Thanks in Advance...
Regards,
Mansoor.

Hi
the steps to generatt the file using the BIC is
1.create the structure in inhouse
2.select the structure you have created , right click then go to the Export, give the destination, the file will be saved at that location.
3.now create the XML message using the create XML Message
4.After creating the XML Message import the XML file .
5. After importing the file the file can be see in the XML node in the BIC mapper for the inhouse structure you have created.
in this way you can create the XML file.
and the created xml file you cam export as XSD,as XML. or as DTD
if you still face the problem please reply me back
Thanks

SeeBurger BIC mapping designer

Hi,
I have generated two files mappings_sys.sca and mappings_sys.sda using seeburger BICMD version 1.8
In earlier versions the file generated was mappings_user.sda.
So i have doubt that the two files generated in new version are deployable or i have to do something more to get the exact deployable files.
Thanks,
Akkasali.

Hi
You can deploy either by SDM or JSPM.

Error in Seeburger BIC Mapping

Hi all,
I am working on Seeburger BIC Mapping Designer.
As i am starting off with it, i have planned to do a very simple scenario File to file.
Source would be an XML and target also would be an xml.
Compilation is fine, but while converting I am gettuing an error
"[Error:ID=2023;LEVEL=1] InhouseDocReader readNextSegment(): offset[4(read Segment : KA\)]: caught ReadingException: Length limit exceeded - no SEG. delim. found!!!
DESCRIPTION: InhouseDocReader causes an ReadingException while trying to read the next segment of current file, abort
<<ErrorStreamEnd>>
Conversion error "
Please let me know what should be done.
Even I have enabled SetIngnoreCRLF option in the source options.
Cheers,
Karthick

Hi Karthick,
Where do you get this error?
In BICMD ?
Have you created the E2X and/or X2E mapping programs in BICMD tool?
Test it locally in the tool intself before deploying the mappings to XI server.
Follow these steps to create a 1;1 mapping for XML to EDI and EDI to XML conversion program:

Seeburger BIC Mapping deployment issue in PI 7.1

Hi experts
We have upgraded from XI 3.0 to PI 7.1 and seeburger is also upgraded to a compatible version.(2.x).
Mappings_user.sda was used in 3.0 environment.
But we are not able to deploy the same in 7.1. I think sda format is not supported in 7.1.
Is there any way to convert .sda to .sca and deploy?
Or how can we generate a compatible deployment file for 7.1?
I have tried using BIC mapping designer,but it shows the option for .sda and .jar only.
Thanks in advanceDhanish Joseph

Hi
I have installed BICMD 632 version and imported .BICMD project file.
Then assigned sda/sca number to it and created deploy file.(Mapping_user00.sda).
Then installed this in PI system using JSPM.
I have tested allmost all the mappings successfully except one in PI system.(EDI 990 message).
When i send data to PI data comes to channel and it shows conversion error. But detailed information not available.
In seeburger monitoring the message goes to recovery mode.
I have used the input 990 X12 and tested in Seeburger BIC MD. And there it is success!!!!!! So i am confused what is happening when it comes to PI system.
I faced some issues>>>
1. while importing project file into BIC MD it asked for apply some autocorrection for one map.(different than this). I have clicked on cancel
2. When i assigned SDA number to my project i have selected 2.1.0 SDA version( 1.8.0 option was also there).
Your prompt reply is greatly appreciated .
Thanks
