Communication Channel Configurations

Hi
I have SRM and SUS in the same server but different client. I have a flow from SRM to SUS and I am using XI Adapter at the receiving end. SRM and SUS differ only on client number.
There are three parameters, Target Host, Service Number and Path Prefix in the Receiver Communication Channel. I used the same settings that I used when SRM was the receiver. Do these settigs change? Since there is only difference in the client number shouldn't these three settings be similar ?
Regards

Hi Ajith,
The 3 parameters will just remain the same in 2 receiver communication channels from 2 different business systems. You just have to specify the corresponding client number and logon details on the Authentication Data section when you use the Authentication Type "Use Logon Data for SAP System" for each channel.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Jenny

Sender File Communication Channel Configuration

Hi guys,
We are trying to develop a file-to-Idoc scenario and we are facing some problems in the configuration of the sender file communication channel as far as the file format is concerned. The file, which is a material master file has the following structure:
00.00 FileHeader
30.00 Material n° 1
30.01 Material n° 1
30.00 Material n° 2
30.01 Material n° 2
30.00 Material n° n
30.01 Material n° n
99.00 FileFooter
Initially, I developed 4 datatypes, FileHeader, Record1, Record2 and FileFooter, and 1 datatype to incorporate all of these, but I faced trouble in 'Recordset Structure' attribute in communication channel, where "FileHeader,1,Record1,,Record2,,FileFooter,1" did not work.
After that I thought of creating one more datatype, called Record, with 0..* cardinality, that incorporates Record1 and Record2 with 1 cardinality.
Although I have declared them correctly as "FileHeader,1,Record,*,FileFooter,1" in 'Recordset Structure', I face trouble in the table with the attributes. What shall I use: I have Record1.fieldNames and Record2.fieldNames and fieldFixedLengths, but XI requires Record...
What you suggest?
Evaggelos

Hi,
I understand your problem....
I actually didn't look at the key fields...properly..
You have said that when you had tried taking Record1 and Record2 in your structure you had problems...
I think the second way which you are trying would not work..!
Can you try this..I am not sure if it will work..
Have your structure as
MT
+Record
++Header
++Record1
++Record2
++Trailer
So your Recordset name would be :Record
RecordsetStructure would be Header,1,Record1,,Record2,,Trailer,1
and then all the other parameters like fieldNames,fixedFieldLength,keyFieldValue...for Header,Record1,Record2,Trailer
U might just try out with this

File Structure - Sender Communication Channel

Hi All,
My Sender flat file structure is below like this
Filed1|Field2|Field3|Field4|Field5|Field6
Filed1|Field2|Field3|Field4|Field5|Field6
Filed1|Field2|Field3|Field4|Field5|Field6
Filed1|Field2|Field3|Field4|Field5|Field6
Filed1|Field2|Field3|Field4|Field5|Field6
Filed1|Field2|Field3|Field4|Field5|Field6
I did the Sender Communication Channel configuration - Content Conversion
Document Name : XXX
Document NameSpace: XXXX
Recordset Structure: MT_Test,*
Recordset Sequence: Ascending
Key field Type: String Case-Sensitvie
MT_Test.fieldNames: Filed1,Field2,Field3,Field4,Field5,Field6
MT_Test.fieldSeparator: '|'
MT_Test.additionalLastFileds: ignore
MT_Test.endSeparator : 'nl'
ignoreRecordsetName: true.
But its pick the file, In SXMB_Moni show Currect...
But in Runtime workbench, in Communication Channel moni, it show below like this,
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_Test xmlns:ns0="http://XXXXX">
<JOBS />
</ns0:MT_Test>
What is the Issue, where i missed some thing, In message mapping, its correct..
Thanks.
SR

SR,
I am still little confused with your below statement.
But its pick the file, In SXMB_Moni show Currect...
But in Runtime workbench, in Communication Channel moni, it show below like this,
>
> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
> - <ns0:MT_Test xmlns:ns0="http://XXXXX">
> <JOBS />
> </ns0:MT_Test>
You mean to say that in MONI, the mapping output is fine, but when you check the output at RWB -> CC Monitoring for the Sender Channel, then you get the above mentioned XML?
This means that there is nothing wrong with your source CC settings. If the entry in RWB -> Sender CC is wrong, your MONI entry will never be right. So, this is really weird.
What is the source structure that you have defined in DT?

Neetesh

Dynamic user credentials for XI receiver communication channel

Hi Experts,
I am working on File(XML ) to ABAP proxy scenario. I want to know if I get the user-id and password information to login to R/3 system as part of the XML payload, can I use this information to connect to R/3 system in my XI Receiver communication channel?
Using a generic user credentials either in RFC destination or specifying it in communication channel configuration will not work. This is because the requirement is that the objects that will be created in inbound ABAP proxy (for ex Material Master) should be created with the user information that is coming from payload rather than a generic user.
Any pointers how to acheive this?
Thanks and regards,
Prasad

Accessing receiver communication channel parameters in mapping

Hi,
I have an XI sender to HTTP receiver scenario with mapping to set the value of the target URL, which is set as an Adapter Specific Message Attribute (TargetURL).
The mapping is responsible for adding hashed authentication credentials to the end of the URL string.
Ideally I'd like to be able to read the values of the host, port and path from the receiver communication channel configuration than hardcode these in the mapping class.
Does anyone know whether it is possible to read receiver communication channel values within mapping?
I could store the full URL string in the communication channel but this would not be secure hence the preference for doing this in mapping.
Thanks,
Alan

PI sender communication channel not reading files from NFS directory

Hello,
I have a sender communication channel configured to read file from NFS directory which is on ECC server. A program in ECC generates the file and puts it on the ECC server in the output directory. PI sender communication channel is supposed to pickup this file and process it. If I give the NFS path as the source directory, I am getting error: Configured source directory '//Server/DIR/OUT' does not exist. I tried putting '
Server\DIR\OUT' too but same error. Do I have to add the NFS path of ECC into PI as logical path?
Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sangita

Hello Sangita,
Your ECC server is an external system, therefore you need to activate FTP service in that system and use the transport protocol FTP:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/e3/94007075cae04f930cc4c034e411e1/content.htm
You can use NFS protocol when you have a local directory in XI server.

Configuring a Communication Channel for an AE other than the default IS

Configuring a Communication Channel for an Adapter Engine other than the default engine.
See: help.sap.com for Communication Channel http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/1b/d5ef3b1ad56d4fe10000000a114084/frameset.htm
It states under 'Adapter Configuration', that you can specify the Adapter Engine you want to use in the Adapter Engine dropdown box.
I have activated the XI components on my ERP system using transaction SICF, but what do I have to do to make the other adapter engines show up in the dropdown list when configuring an adapter?
Maybe some background would be helpful: This is for a scenario that will send a file from an external system to one of the ERP systems in our landscape. BUT, the system admins have decided to revoke our FTP accounts (because they have their reasons), so I need to create a File Adapter that will drop the file on the file system of that ERP system, due to visibility I want to use the integrated Adapter Engine that comes with the ERP system, but need to know how/what I'm missing in setting up this scenario.

Hi Anesh,
>>>>but what do I have to do to make the other adapter engines show up in the dropdown list when configuring an adapter?
in order to use some other adapter engine you
have to install it first by dafault only one
(central) adapter engine is used and it is all
most clients need
if you'd like to use some other adapter engine
(decentralized for example) have a look at thid guide:

Dynamic Configuration for two file adapters communication channels

Hello Experts!!!!!!
     In one of the interface in my landscape, I am using two file adapters for creating two files with different names and at two different destination on F.T.P.
However the receiver service for both the communication channel are same.
In message mapping I am using multi mapping to create two files out a single message.
Now i have a requirement of changing file path and file name using dynamic configuration for both the comm channel.
When i doing dynamic coniguration for both the comm. channel. My interface is creating two files but with same name and on same destination which is set for second communication channel through dynamic configuration.
Here, I guess the second dynamic configuration is over writing the first dynamic configuration and hence creating two files with same name and at same destination.
Please suggest, if separate dynamic configuration for separate communication channel of same receiver service can be done?
Thanks & Regards,
Amol

Thanks for your prompt responses!!!!!
    Is there any way, By which in dynamic configuration I can find out the communication channel name and then change its parameter.
I mean if iam using say comm. channel A and B.
Then in dynamic configuration for A, I will first take communication channel A by calling it and then change its path/file name.
and then do samething for comm. channel B in its dynamic conf.
Regards,
Amol

Dynamic Configuration of Mail receiver Communication Channel

Hi,
like in /people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping for http receiver CC, i am trying to do header customisation, with XHeaderName1 for mail header fields like content-type, content-disposition, but it doesn't works ...
in my mapping i've added :
> (...)
> DynamicConfigurationKey cDisposition = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/""/sap.com/xi/XI/System/Mail", "XHeaderName1");+
> dynaConf.put(cDisposition, "attachment;filename=myFile.txt");
in Communication Channel ASMA i've added variable header : XHeaderName1 --> Content-Disposition
in monitoring i see that XHeaderName1 is filled with attachment;filename=myFile.txt
but in the mail send like this, this configuration has no effect
Someone can help me ?
Edited by: MedAmine on Aug 19, 2009 3:20 PM

Only one standard mail header field can be influenced: this is indeed "Content-Disposition".
You have done halve way, the only thing you have missed is to set the additional parameter 'OMail.AddContentDisposition' to false within 'Advanced Mode'.
Have a look at this WiKi:

How To Configure XI Receiver Communication Channel ?

Hi Expert,
I have a Scenario wherein i have 2 XI systems & i need to pass the messages between these 2 XI / PI system using XI Adapter. Can any body tell me how to configure the XI Adapter Step by Step. Is it required to Create the SM59 RFC destination with type H. Pl. Explain me in detailed.
Regards
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
In creating XI receover communication channel, you have 2 options for Addressing Type:
1. URL Address - no need to create RFC destination. You just have to specify the XI receiver host name, HTTP port, path (/sap/xi/engine?type=receiver), Authentication data (logon details for SAP Client number of the PI system).
2. HTTP Destination - create RFC destination in SXMB_ADM and specify the RFC destination name in your receiver communication channel.
For SAP documentation, see this link: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi711/helpdata/en/e1/091640a991c742e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
Hope this helps.

Configuration Wizard in ID is not using existing Communication Channel

Hi,
I am using PI 7.1.
I created a Communication channel FileSenderCC for a Business System Sys_Sample_One_D with Party as blank.
After creating i can see below object in the list of communication channels in the left pane.
|Sys_Sample_One_D|FileSenderCC
After this when i use Menu: Tools -> Configuration Wizard -> Internal Communication, to configure the scenrio, I selected the Business System Sys_Sample_One_D and Adapter Type "File", and proceed, while selecting the sender communicaiton channel, it cannot find the FileSenderCC that i created.
If i manually enter FileSenderCC, and complete the scenario, it is creating a new communication channel with the samename, and not using the exisitng one.
After that i see two communication channels in the left pane.
|Sys_Sample_One_D|FileSenderCC
*|Sys_Sample_One_D|FileSenderCC
does this happen in PI 7.1 only, because when i worked in 7.0 long time back, i dont think i got this issue.

Hi,
I had the same issue on PI 7.1, it looks like a bug, but I found no note about it.
I think you should open an OSS message for this.
Kind Regards,
Sergio
