BRMS in Biztalk

Hello All,
Can anybody let me know what is BRMS tool.
Is it extented version of BRE provided by microsoft only or any other third party tool?
How we can use it in Biztalk and how is it beneficial to use it?
Thanks.
Pooja Jagtap Software Engineer KPIT Cummins

BMRS as wiki states "A
BRMS or Business Rule Management System is a
softwaresystem used to define, deploy,
execute, monitor and maintain the variety and complexity of decision logic that is used by operational systems within an organization or enterprise. This logic, also referred to as
business rules, includes policies, requirements,
and conditional statements that are used to determine the tactical actions that take place in applications and systems."
Its not a extension of BizTalk's BRE. But features of BRE overlap with some with BRMS. Part of the features of business rules life cycle like storage and publishing, executing of rules, technical
refinement and elaboration (technical policy) and test and deployment of rules have been covered by BRE. But BRMS covers more like business refinement and elaboration, management and retirement. There a section dedicate to BRMS and BRE in book "Microsoft
BizTalk Server 2010 Unleashed", This discussion would give you and idea about BRE in BRMS.
There are some vendors who provide these feature in the products Ilog(IBM), JBoss (RedHat), Blaze Advisor(FICO),
Corticon(Progess).
These products provide means of integration through WCF/Web service you can use these services to integrate with BizTalk. Other option is expose BizTalk artifacts like Schemas as WCF service
for these tools to integrate.

Processo NFE - Biztalk GRC

Bom dia a todos, estamos implementando NFE e gostaria de saber se alguem ja passou por algo parecido.
Iremos partir de um software em VB que ira enviar para o GRC via biztalk...alguem ja passou por essa situação? Gostaria de saber como o BIztalk irá startar, se possivel também, as RFC.
Obrigado,

Henrique,
Voce teria alguma documentação ou link referente a interface SOAP to RFC.
Como eu disse anteriormente, temos o seguinte cenario
Biztalk -> SAP GRC/PI -> Sefaz..
Preciso entender melhor a configuração necessária para a realização desse processo.
Obrigado mais uma vez.

How to update an existing item in a sharepoint list using the WSS adapter for Biztalk

Is there a way that a record in SP list be updated using WSS adapter in biztalk ?

A ListItem has its own unique row id so in all likelihood, an insert with the same data will result in a new list entry. The Lists Web Service however, has an UpdateListItem method which will take an update request. [refer
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/office/websvclists.lists.updatelistitems(v=office.15).aspx ]
There is another note in the conference (marked answered) to your List Item Update problem. Probably worth a try too. [refer

New line character (/n ) getting introduced in the response XML in Biztalk 2010

Hello,
In one of our enviornment, we have started facing an issue that the response XML does not get structered correctly, hence when the response is finally redenered, there is a /n in the response fields. this is for all string fields that do not have data .
e.g.
If you see the sample below, FName field has data and hence is structered correctly, however HairColorCd does not have data.
The opening and closing tags of HairColorCd are on different lines when the xml response is opened in a text editor, and when opened in IE, there is a space. When the BizTalk (hosted as a WCF )responds to the caller application there appears a '/n ' in the
value of the field.
The correct value should have been null, i.e. ""
<FName>LISA</FName><HairColorCd>
    </HairColorCd><HairColorDesc>
    </HairColorDesc><EyeColorCd>
    </EyeColorCd><EyeColorDesc>
    </EyeColorDesc>
ANy ideas on why this is happenning?ALl other enviornments(with same code) is working fine.

Hi Rachana,
I have faced the same issue last weeks with BizTalk 2010. This happens with versions of BizTalk 2006R2+ and if you are loading the message using XML Document in some stage. So if that is the case, please check everytime you load the content of the
message using XMLDocument and do it this way:
Xmldoc= new System.Xml.XmlDocument();
Xmldoc.PreserveWhitespace=false;
Xmldoc.Load(CONTENT); // or Xmldoc.LoadXml(CONTENTAsSTRING)
Xmldoc.PreserveWhitespace=true;
YourBizTalkMessage=Xmldoc;
Do it in this sequence and your problem should be solved.

Using Federated Security in BizTalk against custom Token Provider and Custom Token

Hi,
I as the topic states, I'm trying to get BizTalk to use a Custom Token Provider with custom tokens.
So I thought this would be rather painless using ws2007FederationHttpBinding but got stuck. The problem is that the service expect soap action and a special structure (se example):
Request:
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:wsc="common.namespace" xmlns:ws="securitytoken.namespace">
   <soapenv:Header>
      <wsc:AutHeader>
Containing Custom Auth header information tags, about 20 or so
      </wsc:AutHeader>
   </soapenv:Header>
   <soapenv:Body>
      <ws:SECSSecurityTokenCreate_V1_0InputArgs>
         <ws:SecurityTokenCreateRequest>
            <ws:securityToken></ws:securityToken>
         </ws:SecurityTokenCreateRequest>
      </ws:SECSSecurityTokenCreate_V1_0InputArgs>
   </soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
Response:
<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<soap:Body>
<SECSSecurityTokenCreate_V1_0OutputArgs xmlns:ns2="common.namespace" xmlns="tokenservice,namespace">
<SecurityTokenCreateResponse>
<securityToken>  </securityToken>
</SecurityTokenCreateResponse>
<ResponseState>
<ns2:ErrorCode>0</ns2:ErrorCode>
<ns2:Severity>0</ns2:Severity>
<ns2:ComponentId>201</ns2:ComponentId>
<ns2:StrErrorCode xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true" />
<ns2:Message>OK</ns2:Message>
<ns2:NativeError xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true" />
<ns2:LogSequence xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:nil="true" />
</ResponseState>
</SECSSecurityTokenCreate_V1_0OutputArgs>
</soap:Body> </soap:Envelope>
Error Message in BizTalk, when I send message via ws2007FederationHTTPBinding to the SOAP service, as expected the soap structure dosent match the expected one from the server, most obvisly is the missing SOAP action and incorrect BODY element.
System.ServiceModel.ProtocolException: The content type text/html; charset=iso-8859-1 of the response message does not match the content type of the binding (application/soap+xml; charset=utf-8). If using a custom encoder, be sure that the IsContentTypeSupported method is implemented properly. The first 521 bytes of the response were: '<soap:Envelope xmlns:soap="http://www.w3.org/2003/05/soap-envelope">
<soap:Body>
<soap:Fault>
<soap:Code>
<soap:Value>Server</soap:Value>
</soap:Code>
<soap:Reason>

<soap:Text xml:lang="en">Missing operation for soapAction [null] and body element [{http://docs.oasis-open.org/ws-sx/ws-trust/200512}RequestSecurityToken] with SOAP Version [SOAP 1.2]</soap:Text>
</soap:Reason>
</soap:Fault>
</soap:Body>
</soap:Envelope>'. ---> System.Net.WebException: The remote server returned an error: (500) Internal Server Error.
at System.Net.HttpWebRequest.GetResponse()
at System.Servi
My plan to solve this is to try using beahviors added to the "inner" wcf binding that will help reconstruct the message from the standard form that I has, but I'm a bit vorried that I start to solve this and later on I'll have to add custom handling
for token extraction and handling since the token should be placed in a custom header in the soap envelope with custom namespace =).
So my question is, could this be solved via sw2007FederationHttpBinding or is an orchestration and some custom code for signing the path forward?
Thanks in advance for any help or guidance!
/Mattias

It's a little tough to use sw2007FederationHttpBinding, I faced similar situation before. :(

DRC: "This is good article, The only this which can be corrected is : ==> This can be achieved using “maintenance Cleanup Task • Maintenance Plan has a control flow item “maintenance Cleanup Task” to delete the old backup files based
on age of the backup, but it creates the problem when it deletes the full database backups based on n no.of days leaving all the dependent intermediate differential and transaction logs which are useless. "

way, although the code is simple enough to work through."
MR: "Great tool code!"
Ed Price: "This is a good contribution! One way to improve an article like this is to explain the parts of the code more in depth, as a way to introduce each snippet (and maybe dividing a block up more). Then you could link to the Gallery
iteam if the reader wants to access the entire snippet at once. The images are also very helpful! Great job!"
Richard Mueller: "Perhaps this code should be in the gallery. There should be more explanation in a Wiki."

Answer an interesting question?
Create a wiki article about it!

BizTalk exposed WCF 403 - Forbidden: Access is denied WCF

Im using BizTalk server 2010.cretaed Certificate in IIS and shared to client the same as a public cert.
Im using httpsTransport with customBinding.followed below url
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/bizintegration1/archive/2011/08/23/exposing-biztalk-orchestration-as-a-wcf-service-over-ssl.aspx
When I try to Browse in BizTalk server with https, im able to browse, but in the client side, they are not able to browse
and they get "403 - Forbidden: Access is denied. You do not have permission to view this directory or page using the credentials that you supplied." Is there anythng that needs to be set in BizTalk or the settings should be done at the client end?
IIS autehntification mode is anonymous is configued.plz let me know anything to do in biztalk and IIS level
Regards BizTalkWorship

This is because your client has not provided the certificate while browsing the service URL.
If they (client) have installed the certificate in correct folder and then while browsing folder the service, client should provide the certificate through browser.
For Internet Explorer, a pop-up should with all the certificates
installed in their personal store. They need to select the certificate that they already installed in it.
Look into this article (from
On the client side: section onwards) for how to browse the service from IE by providing the certificate.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/asiatech/archive/2014/02/13/how-to-configure-iis-client-certificate-mapping-authentication-for-iis7.aspx
Note: Above article is just relavant to you from
On the client side: section onwards i.e for instructing your client to use certificate while browsing.
FireFox
You will get an error that says “HTTP Error 403.7 – Forbidden” “The page you are attempting to access requires your browser to have a Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)
client certificate that the Web server recognizes.”
In
FireFox go to Tools –> Options –> Advanced –> Encryption –> View Certificates
Click import and select the certificate with private key file you exported earlier (the .pfx file)
You will need to clear history now or restart browser
Just FYI for installing certifate correctly in client side, if they use Windows (off-course):
MMC, add certificate snap-in for “current user”
Browse to Certificates (Current User) –> Personal –> Certificates
Right click this node and select All Tasks and Import from the popup menu
Follow the steps in the wizard, selecting the public certificate you have shared o client.

How to handle rpc/encoded style messages using BizTalk?

I am integrating with a lot of services and one of our customers has a service with rpc/encoded style
I could consume and generate schema from their wsdl file via BizTalk consume WCF wizard.
Once I am trying to call the service with request message that generated from the schema, it is giving an error that can not desterilize the first element of the message.
No Deserializer found to deserialize a 'FieldName' using encoding style 'null'
I compared the stub xml request message from SaopUI and I noticed that the xml expecting the data type with the element like this .
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:wsb="WSBanka">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<wsb:bnkBorcsorgulama soapenv:encodingStyle="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/encoding/">
<sozlesmeNo xsi:type="xsd:string">?</sozlesmeNo>
<bankaKodu xsi:type="xsd:string">?</bankaKodu>
<anahtar xsi:type="xsd:string">?</anahtar>
</wsb:bnkBorcsorgulama>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
On the other hand, I got the request of the message from Fiddler using the BizTalk , and the generate xml of the BizTalk schema without the data type.
<soapenv:Envelope xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:soapenv="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" xmlns:wsb="WSBanka">
<soapenv:Header/>
<soapenv:Body>
<wsb:bnkBorcsorgulama>
<sozlesmeNo>?</sozlesmeNo>
<bankaKodu>?</bankaKodu>
<anahtar>?</anahtar>
</wsb:bnkBorcsorgulama>
</soapenv:Body>
</soapenv:Envelope>
In SoapUi, if I remove a datatype from the message, I will get same error from the BizTalk request.
I read some articles that rpc/encoded style are not supported but I am not sure and these articles are not clear.
I also read that it was supported with Soap adapter but now it is deprecated.
So, Is there any one has an experience in rpc/encoded style messages and how to handle these message in BizTalk or is there any work around to handle these messages?
Your inputs really appreciate it.

Domain users creation for BizTalk server 2013 installation

Hi all,
I am setting up biztalk 2013 environment clustered BizTalk server and single sql server. I would like to know the list of domain users and domain groups to be created and which groups these users to be a member of. I am also installing and would be using
Sharepoint to develop BizTalk interfaces.
Thanks
Please Help
Vikram

Hi Vikram ,
You need to create below Windows group on your AD before you start your BizTalk Configuration .
1)SSO Administrators:Administrator of the Enterprise Single Sign-On (SSO) service.
2)SSO Affiliate Administrators :Administrators of certain SSO affiliate applications.Can create/delete SSO affiliate applications, administer user mappings, and set credentials for affiliate application users.
3)BizTalk Server Administrators:Has the least privileges necessary to perform administrative tasks Can deploy solutions, manage applications, and resolve message processing issues.
To perform administrative tasks for adapters, receive and send handlers, and receive locations, the BizTalk Server Administrators must be added to the Single Sign-On Affiliate Administrators.
4)BizTalk Server Operators:Has a low privilege role with access only to monitoring and troubleshooting actions
5) BizTalk Application Users:The default name of the first In-Process BizTalk Host Group created by Configuration Manager.Use one BizTalk Host Group for each In-Process host in your environment.Includes accounts with access to In-Process
BizTalk Hosts (hosts processes in BizTalk Server, BTSNTSvc.exe).
6)BizTalk Isolated Host Users :The default name of the first Isolated BizTalk Host Group created by Configuration Manager. Isolated BizTalk hosts not running on BizTalk Server, such as HTTP and SOAP.Use one BizTalk Isolated Host Group for
each Isolated Host in your environment.
7)BAM Portal Users :Has access to BAM Portal Web site.
8)BizTalk SharePoint Adapter Enabled Hosts :Has access to Windows SharePoint Services Adapter Web Service
9)BizTalk B2B Operators Group : A new BizTalk role that reduces the onus on the Administrators to perform all Party management operation. This role allows windows users associated with the role to perform all party management operations.
Now coming to domain User , you can have single -multiple setting were you can run SSO ,InProcess and Isolated on different domain user . You can also run all the configuration settings on single user as well .
Thanks

Basically I have an XML document as input and a flat file as output. Example for input is as per below. The "Contact" node's maxOccurs here is set to unbounded and could be multiple. (phone, fax, website, telex ...)
<root>
<CustomerName>Company A</CustomerName>
<Contact>
<Type>Phone</Type>
<Locator>03566789</Locator>
<Type>Phone</Type>
<Locator>03566790</Locator>
<Type>Fax</Type>
<Locator>03566795</Locator>
<Type>Telex</Type>
<Locator>03566798</Locator>
<Type>Website</Type>
<Locator>www.companyA.com</Locator>
</Contact>
</root>
The expected output in XML would look like below. The final outcome would be a csv file. Strictly Phone 1, phone 2, fax and telex, the rest would be ignored.
<root>
<CustomerName>Company A</CustomerName>
<Phone1>03566789</Phone1>
<Phone2>03566790</Phone2>
<Fax>03566795</Fax>
<Telex>03566798</Telex>
</root>
Example of expected output result (csv file): CompanyName;Phone1;Phone2;Fax;Telex;
In our case here: Company A;03566789;03566790;03566795;03566798;
Another example could be: Company B;036778911;;036778912;; if only 1 phone number and 1 fax number provided.
I've used Table Looping and Table Extractor and nearly got the desired result except that it is represented in multiple rows instead of one: Example:
Company A;03566789;;;
Company A;;03566790;;;
Company A;;;03566795;;
Company A;;;;03566798;
Any idea how to do the mapping? I'm kind of stuck here and it sounds like an easy problem but i could not find any example to the solution that I need here. Table looping and table extractor is ok to map from single node flat file to multiple nodes but not
the reverse like in this example.

sportivo

I need Fusion help creating a demo of BRM JCA Resource Adapter

I need Fusion help creating a demo of BRM JCA Resource Adapter.
I know BRM well but am clueless with Fusion.
I am trying to figure out what Fusion products to download and install and how I manipulate the Fusion side to manipulate BRM.
My BRM docs say:
Installing the BRM JCA Resource Adapter ->
Software requirements
(yada yada install a bunch of BRM stuff I know how to do)
The adapter must be deployed on a J2EE 1.4-compliant application server that has implemented the JCA 1.5 specification. The adapter runs only in a managed environment. (Does this imply some particular Fusion package?)
(more yada yada about installing more BRM packages I know how to do)
Deploying and configuring the BRM JCA Resource Adapter ->
Overview of the BRM JCA Resource Adapter configuration procedure
The procedure for setting up the BRM JCA Resource Adapter includes the following tasks:
Installing the adapter on your BRM system, if you have not already done so. See Installing the BRM JCA Resource Adapter.
Generating the schema files for the adapter. See Generating the schema files for your system. (links to some BRM commands np)
Specifying how to construct XML tags. See Specifying the XML tags for extended fields. (links to an oob file included with directions on how to address BRM customizations np)
Generating the WSDL files for the adapter. See Generating the WSDL files for your system. (links to an oob file with directions to configure. I could use some help if/when I get this far)
The last two look pretty important but I haven't a clue. I pasted the text from the docs below.
Deploying the adapter on your application server. See Deploying the BRM JCA Resource Adapter on an Oracle application server.
Connecting the adapter to the BRM software. See Connecting the adapter to BRM in Oracle AS.
Deploying the BRM JCA Resource Adapter on an Oracle application server
The adapter is dependent on Java Archive (JAR) files to deploy properly. The following table lists the JAR files that the adapter requires from each application in your system.
Application
JAR files
J2EE application server
classes12.jar, connector15.jar, and jta.jar
Oracle BPEL process
bpm-infra.jar, orabpel-thirdparty.jar, orabpel.jar, and xmlparserv2.jar
BRM J2EE Resource Adapter
pcm.jar and pcmext.jar
Apache
xercesImpl.jar
If you are deploying the adapter in a standalone Oracle Containers for Java EE (OC4J) instance, make sure these JAR files are available to the class loader that is loading the adapter.
If you are deploying the adapter by using Oracle SOA Suite, these JAR files are available as part of the oracle.bpel.common code source. You import these libraries as follows:
Open the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/config/applications.xml configuration file for the J2EE instance.
Add the oracle.bpel.common entry (shown in bold below) to the imported-shared-libraries section of the file:
<imported-shared-libraries>
<import-shared-library name="adf.oracle.domain"/>
<import-shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common"/>
</imported-shared-libraries>
Save and close the file.
Restart the application server or the J2EE instance.
After you make the JAR files available, deploy the adapter on the Oracle application server by using either the Oracle Application Server (Oracle AS) Application Server Control (ASC) or the Oracle admintool.jar file. Copy the adapter archive file (BRM_home/apps/brm_integrations/jca_adapter/OracleBRMJCA15Adapter.rar) from the installation directory to a location that is accessible to the adapter deployment tool. You can then open and deploy the archive file on your application server.
After successful deployment, return the applications.xml file to its original settings and add the oracle.bpel.common codesource to the BRM Adapter oc4j-ra.xml file:
Open the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/config/applications.xml configuration file for the J2EE instance.
Remove the following oracle.bpel.common entry (shown in bold below):
<imported-shared-libraries>
<import-shared-library name="adf.oracle.domain"/>
<import-shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common"/>
</imported-shared-libraries>
Save and close the file.
Open the JCA Resource Adapter oc4j-ra.xml file from the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/application-deployments/default/BRMAdapterDeploymentName directory.
Add the oracle.bpel.common entry (shown in bold below) to the oc4j-connector-factories section of the file:
<oc4j-connector-factories...>
<imported-shared-libraries>
<import-shared-library name="oracle.bpel.common"/>
</imported-shared-libraries>
<oc4j-connector-factories>
Save and close the file.
Restart the application server or the J2EE instance.
For more information about deploying the adapter, see your application server’s documentation.
Connecting the adapter to BRM in Oracle AS
You connect the adapter to the BRM software by creating connection pools and connection factories. As part of the adapter deployment, the application server creates oc4j-ra.xml from the packaged ra.xml. The ra.xml file is located in the Oracle_home/j2ee/Instance/connectors/AdapterDeploymentName/AdapterDeploymentName/META-INF directory. For example, Oracle_home/j2ee/home/connectors/BRMAdapter/BRMAdapter/META-INF/ra.xml.
Use the resource adapter home page from the Oracle AS ASC page to create connection pools and connection factories.
Create your connection pool by following the performance and tuning guidelines in Configuring Connection Pooling in OC4J in Oracle Containers for J2EE Resource Adapter Administrator's Guide. See download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/web.1013/b28956/conncont.htm.
Make sure you set the pool’s Maximum Connections parameter (maxConnections XML entity) equal to or greater than the Oracle BPEL process manager’s dspMaxThreads parameter. For more information, see Oracle BPEL Process Manager Performance Tuning in Oracle Application Server Performance Guide for 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) at download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31017_01/core.1013/b28942/tuning_bpel.htm.
Note To set up JCA Resource Adapter transaction management in BPEL, you must create a private connection pool and set its Inactive Connection Timeout property (inactivity-timeout XML entity) to 0. See About JCA Resource Adapter transaction management in BPEL for more information.
Create as many connection factories as your system needs. For each connection factory, specify the following:
The JNDI location for the connection factory.
The connection pool to use.
How to connect to BRM by using these entries:
Entry
Description
ConnectionString
Specify the protocol, host name, and port number for connecting to the BRM software. For example: ip Server1 12006.
DBNumber
Specify the database number for the BRM database. For example, enter 1 or 0.0.0.1 for database 0.0.0.1.
InputValidation
Specifies whether to validate the input XMLRecord:
True — The adapter validates the input XMLRecord against the opcode schema.
False — The adapter does not validate the input XMLRecord.
The default is False.
This overrides any other validation parameter specified in the WSDL file.
OutputValidation
Specifies whether to validate the output XMLRecord:
True — The adapter validates the output XMLRecord against the opcode schema.
False — The adapter does not validate the output XMLRecord.
The default is False.
This overrides any other validation parameter specified in the WSDL file.
LoginType
Specifies the authentication method:
1 — The adapter logs in to BRM by using the specified login name and password.
0 — The adapter logs in to BRM by using the specified service type and POID ID.
The default is 1.
UserName
Specifies the login name the adapter uses for logging in to the BRM software.
Note This entry is required only if LoginType is set to 1.
Password
Specify the password the adapter uses for logging in to the BRM software.
Note This entry is required only if LoginType is set to 1.
PoidID
Specifies the POID ID. This entry should be set to 1.
ServiceType
Specifies the service the adapter uses to log in to the BRM software.
The default is /service/pcm_client.
You have successfully configured the adapter to connect to BRM.

Not able to get the details of messages in BizTalk Server

I have Biztalk Server 2010 setup. I have created a sample message and tried to check the application by sending the message(using FILE protocol). I am getting the message at the send port successfully but I can't find any entry in the database for any
of the message, in any of the tables (InstanceStateMessageReferences_BizTalkServerApplication, Spool, Instances, etc.). I have created receive location and send port on the same server. I want it for monitoring purpose. Am I missing some configuration
or something else ?

Hi,
As stated above if you need to check the message or message properties then you would need to enable tracking, depending on where you want it to be and what you want to track, below are two articles which should help you understand more:
