Acknowledgement from MDM to PI.

Hi All,
I am new to MDM. We have a requirement ECC->ABAP Proxy->PI->MDM Adapter->MDM. And Acknowledgement has to be sent to PI from MDM.
Using MDM 7.1 and PI 7.1 versions.
The interface is working fine but no acknowledgment is received at the PI.
In SXMB_MONI of PI: Staus is Success. (But no Ack Staus.)
RWB: Message Processing started.
Message Prcessing Completed Successfully.
My question is, do we need to do any configuratiions in MDM side or PI side to receive Acknowledgement from MDM?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Prasanna,
First thing, I hope that you are using MDM PI Adapter rather than File Adapter. As MDM PI Adapter delivers the message to the MDM server by using the MDM Java API ports functionality. Then The MDM PI Adapter updates the message delivery status in PI Monitoring.
Second thing, Your MDIS (MDM Import Services should be running) because it imports the message independently (MDIS). Once completed, a processed import event is triggered. Then The MDM PI Adapter captures the processed import event and updates the PI Monitoring with the message import status.
Please have a look on Statuses(No error, contain errors etc) for Acknowledgment of Messages (inbound messages to MDM):
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwmdm71/helpdata/en/48/986fec0e0e0e27e10000000a421937/content.htm
Also refer, Inbound Message Flow to MDM

Note: Your MDIS services should be running because only this triggers import event when data successfully imported into MDM. Then this event captures by MDM PI adapter which updates PI monitoring with message import status.

Capturing Errors in Acknowledgements in MDM adapter - PI7.11

Hi Experts
I am working on a File to MDMadapter in PI 7.11 , I am sending a request to MDM adapter and receiving the acknowledgements back to PI, but in failed status. I have configure the Alerts to capture the erros in runtime work bench.
However whenever there is a failure on the Acknowledgements the alerts are not being sent. How can I capture the errors in Acknowledgements from MDM adapter.
Thanks
PR

Hi PR,
can you tell us what exactly do you mean by receiving acknowlegdements in error status?
Do you mean you there was an ackowledgement from MDM saying that the load was un-succesful?
Or do you mean there was an acknowledgement which went into failed status, because there was no configuration done in PI to handle that acknowledgement?
If you mean 2nd point, then you should have a scenario to handle the acknowledgements and then have the alerts configured the normal way.
Best Regards,
Ravi

ACK from MDM PI Adapter

Hi All,
Can you please let me know whether we can receive the ACK messages back from MDM-PI adapter only with BPM in place ?(where in we explicitly ask for ACK)
If we do not use BPM, we would never have SXMB_MONI updated with the MDM ACK messages - Is this correct?
Please let me know
Thanks

Succesful IDOC acknowledgements from ECC

Dear MDM gurus,
What is the best way to handle acknowledgements from ECC (INTO MDM) for inbound IDOCS from MDM (MDM->XI->ECC).
We want it such that when an IDOC gets posted into ECC succesfully,it should send an acknowledgement signal back to MDM saying that IDOC was received properly.
Thanks.

HI Mugdha,
I have a concern on the Acknowledgement (ALEAUD) Idoc. I have implemented this scenario wherein DEBMAS IDoc is posted from MDM -PI - ECC and ECC sends back the acknowldgement using ALEAUD Idoc.
However, in PI (SXMB_MONI) there is no separate message entry created for this acknowledgment. The ALEAUD acknowldgement message details is attached to the original DEBMAS message which was triggered from MDM - PI - ECC. Due to this, PI interface created is not able to read the acknowledgement message and process it to post/dump the target file onto the MDM Port.
I tried triggering and ALEAUD Idoc manually using PI - RWB which generated a separate message for ALEAUD Idoc in sxmb_moni and then my target file was created in MDM (But this is just a manual way of testing the PI interface).
Can you advice on how this concern can be dealt with?
Thanks in advance,
Elizabeth.

Is there a way to delete records from MDM automatically?

Is there a way to delete records from MDM automatically?
I am able to import the data automatically through MDIS, but I have to delete the data first. Itu2019s possible to do it ?

Hi Adam,
Current scenario
USER1: call ME to delete old catalog data
ME: open the MDM & delete it manually
USER1: Transaction to extract new data file
MDIS: load the data to catalog
As per your requirement, you should save map in following way which can solve your purpose. Create a XML file which should consist of new and existing records. So in import Manager, for newly added records you need to set Default Import Action as Create and for existing records you should use or set Default Import Action as Replace and then should save in map.
So using this every-time if new record comes (not available in data manager), it will get created and for existing record (already available in Data Manager) it will replace (which means delete the existing record (old catalog data) and create a new record).

Problem: Unable to retrieve workflow data from MDM repository

This is a new MDM installations scenario for version 5.5 SP05 (5.5.40.83).
After installing MS Visio, finding problems connecting it with the MDM Data Manager. After doing MDM workflow installations, able to initiate the MS Visio Workflow from MDM Data Manager and can see the Pane-MS Visio Workflow Stencil but not the able to see the Pane-MS Visio Workflow Stencil Details that appears below the Pane-MS Visio Workflow Stencil. Secondly geting a pop-up with the error message as - 'Unable to retrieve workflow data from MDM repository.'
I have added a parameter Mail Server=MailServerIPAddess (the existing IP addr), but it hasn't helped.
Can any one please help me in this !

Hi
As Felix mentioned, it might be a version compatibility problem.
You have also mentioned that mail server is not working for that do this
Mailserver = SMTP server.company.com ( ex. Mail.company(xxxxx).com)
MDM workflow notify task is working after rebooting the Machine. So the rule is after making changes to MDS.ini file reboot the machine ,to observe the consequence of configurable changes.
If u need anything this let me know.

Price from MDM is not transferred to shopping cart in EBP

Hi all,
we are implementing MDM 2.0/SP2 for SRM. Actually the catalog content is fully available, the only problem is that I don't get the price from catalog into shopping cart via OCI. When I browse through catalog coming from EBP every price in MDM-shopping cart (WEB UI) is displayed correctly. When I transfer the articles from MDM-shopping cart to EBP every field is transferred correctly except price. When I test with Fiddler I also don't see price coming in, and I also don't see any system message in system log SLG1 of EBP.
These are my settings:
Price in MDM data manger like:
     Price Information: 1| |AVL Graz|12.14| Euro
OCI:
NEW_ITEM-PRICE            Price Information -Amount (not transferred)
NEW_ITEM-CURRENCY    Price Information - Currency (transferred correctly)
NEW_ITEM-PRICEUNIT     Price Information - Price Base Quantity (transferred correctly)
Did you guys have a similar problem before?
Best Regards Thomas

Hey Thomas,
As specified by u can see items with their prices in the Data Manager as well as in the Shopping cart but not on EBP side.
These were the settings u had specified:
OCI Mappings:
NEW_ITEM-PRICE Price Information -Amount (not transferred)
NEW_ITEM-CURRENCY Price Information - Currency (transferred correctly)
NEW_ITEM-PRICEUNIT Price Information - Price Base Quantity (transferred correctly)
Please do check wether the items which u r purchasing is having all the values populated.
Bcoz as given u havnt specified Orderunit field and Minimum Quantity UOM.
As per my understanding to purchase any item, and take it onto the EBP side with its price the Orderunit field must be populated with Unit of Measure.
After inserting values in Order unit and Minimum Quantity UOM then go and check wether its price is taken from the Shopping cart to the EBP.
Please check it will work
Do let me know
Hope dis helps u

Transfer the data from MDM to SAP R/3

Hi,
I have to transfer the material master data from MDM to R/3.I have syndicated the data and put the file in the .xsd format in the ready folder of the repository.Now I have to transfer this file to R/3 , one way is through XI(XI will pick the file from the current location and an IDOC from there will pass this data to R/3. The other way I was thinking a UNIX script can do it. The UNIX script will run and pick the data from ready folder and pass it to R/3.If somebody of you has done similar thing kindly reply.
Regards,
Ashutosh

The best method of integrating MDM with R/3 is to use XI (PI). There are a couple of reasons for this, but most importantly you can use the IDoc adapter to turn your XML message into an IDoc and send it to R/3. This has a lot of advantages because IDocs are very easy to monitor, troubleshoot, and reprocess in the event of an error. IDocs are definitely the preferred method of integration with R/3, therefore using PI is a very good idea. A few years back I wrote a blog about how to configure XI for an interface between MDM and R/3, perhaps it will help you:
/people/harrison.holland5/blog/2006/12/20/xi-configuration-for-mdm-integration--sample-scenario
While it is possible to use a batch script, it's not recommended. You would still have to write a load program (LSMW or some other type of load program) on the R/3 side. Monitoring and troubleshooting is going to be more cumbersome, because you also have to monitor the message flow on the UNIX system. If PI is serving as the middleware it does the end-to-end monitoring for you.

Bank details not visible in R3 after syndicating from MDM

I have used standard map debmdm06 to syndicate Customer records from MDM(SP5) to R3.The IDoc seems to get posted,but the bank details were not appearing in R3.
Can anybody help me out in this issue.

Hi,
This could happen due to multiple reasons. Would suggest to check folllowing:
1. Check the xml file that is getting generated after syndication. You can take it from Outbound/Archive folder. Check if the bank details are appearing in the xml file.
2. If yes, that means MDM is syndicating data properly. If no check syndication map.
3. If yes for pt 2, Check in coming Idoc from we02. Does it have the bank details? If not, then if you have used XI, the field mapping would be inncorrect.
I guess, the issue would be in xml getting generated.

Ketan

Problems with posting iDocs from MDM in SAP R3

Hi,
I am an MDM consultant, with limited knowledge about SAP R3.
We send material master data from MDM, via PI to R3 using iDocs.
We are having problems with posting MATMAS, and it seems the problems are with updating already existing materials.
In BD87 we get the following warnings:
The field MARA-ERVOE is not ready for input and was therefore not initialized
The field MARA-ERVOL is not ready for input and was therefore not initialized
The field MARA-FERTH is not ready for input and was therefore not initialized
The field MARA-KZGVH is not ready for input and was therefore not initialized
The field MARA-XCHPF is not ready for input and was therefore not initialized
With the last message being:
No changes made
I have checked the MDM syndicator, and none of these idoc-fields are linked to the MDM repository.
So they are syndicated blank.
If we try to resend the material, it is again stopped and in BD87 I see the same messages.
Please help me understanding how to solve these issues.
Thanks,
Thomas

Hi,
Please refer the below threads which talks about the similar problem
http://scn.sap.com/thread/3180116
http://scn.sap.com/thread/1374222
Generally the basic view of the material to be created first. Then the sales, purchasing and other views to be created.
There are few fields in the other views which gets values from the basic data view.

Need to get catalog item from MDM of a specific supplier

Hi gurus,
i need to get the list of catalog item from MDM of a specific supplier,
user will give the supplier and i need to bring the list of the catalog item
that belong to the supplier that the user gave me,
through abap.
is anyone can help me with wich class+method do i need to use if i have the supplier name or id?
thanks in advanced,
dana.
Edited by: dana leving on Jan 10, 2011 3:59 PM

Hi Dana.
You can achieve this through MDM Webservices.
1. Create a MDM Webservice
2. Configure the tables and list the list of fields which you want to retrieve
3. You can specify the search criteria as well(supplier=XXX)
4. Generate it and save it
You can deploy the application in your landscape and call this webservice from your custom application to create shopping cart.
The below link will give you an insight of MDM Webservices.

Acknowledgement from receiver file Adapter with out BPM

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to get Acknowledgement from Receiver file Adapter with out Using BPM.
Here is the scenario. I am sending files from different Sender Adapters. There is only one target that is File Adapter. After each successfull and failure transaction I need an Acknowledgement that needs to trigger another receiver adapter and send the the file name and timestamp to that file.
Hope this is a complicated scenario. Please help me.
Thanks,
Kevin

from sap note 821267
6. Acknowledgements
    * Q: Does the File Adapter support acknowledgements?
    * A: You need to distinguish system acknowledgements (indicating that a message has been received by the target system) and application acknowledgements (indicating that the message has been successfully processed by the application on the receiver side).
           The receiver of an XI message will only send an acknowledgement back to the sender if the sender has requested one. However, the File Adapter has no functionality that relies on the receipt of an acknowledgement, so it never requests one.
           On the other hand, if a File Adapter Receiver receives a request to send an acknowledgement, it will do so for a system acknowledgement request. Application acknowledgements are not supported at all as the File Receiver has no way to determine if the written file has been correctly processed by the back-end application, which is what a positive application acknowledgement would imply.
this means that your requirement is ideally not possible without a BPM

How to notify a team when Product is replicated to CRM from MDM?

Hi All,
MDM is the back-end for SAP CRM in our project. Product is created and replicated from MDM to CRM via XML interface for Products, it is one way replication process. Recently we have implemented Opportunity management in which these products are being used. For that, we have updated Sales Area and Pricing to all the products in CRM with a custom report.
Now the requirement is, when a product is created and replicated to CRM from MDM, a team should be notified about this. So that, they would maintain the responsible sales area and pricing in replicated Product to use it in Oppt.
Could you please guide me how to map this requirement in our system. Kindly help me with the feasibility and solution overview of the above requirement.
Thank you in advance.

Maddy
