Copy one file to multiple IDOCs in XI

Hi,
I am having following scenario..
XI receiving XML file with Sales order and customer information.
Using this file, first I have to create customer and then create sales order using same file if customer is created successfully.
Please advice how to solve above scenario
Thanks in advance,
Laxman.

Try BPMPatternMulticastSerial BMP Pattern. You can first create the customer, then receive a response (If Sync) and then send the Sales Order. This uses the ForEach mode.
Hope this Helps to get you started!

One file for multiple IDOCs

Hi,
Need help on IDOC files created on application server.
For IDOCs of EDI type generally one file is created on application server for one idoc. Is there any way to create a common file for multiple IDOCs that are created in a batch job?
Thanking in anticipation
Sudhir Bhate

Hi Sudhir;
Yes, it is a setting on the outbound parameters of the partner profile. In the section for "output mode," select "Collect IDocs." This link to help.sap.com describes the procedure:

Each line of a file to a single Idoc (one file to multiple IDoc)?

Hi Community,
I have a flat file with many lines. Each of these lines has the same structure and has to fill a separate IDoc. How can I configure XI that it creates for each line a separate IDoc?
I already found a blog to such a topic: File to Multiple IDocs (XSLT Mapping)
But thatu2019s not what I am looking for (or I do not get the Point).
I also tried to set u201CRecords per Messageu201D to 1. But that is not working to. :/
Maybe one of you guys has an idea?
Thanks in advance,
Udo

Hi Udo,
For instance if file structure is as follows:
<File>
<Header>
</Header>
<Item>
</Item>
<Item>
</Item>
</File>
Now if u want to genarate a new Idoc for each n every <Item> in the file. The Header Information is to be repeated for each IDOC as well.
Then allu need to do is import the idoc in XI, then take the idoc xsd and change the occurrence o..unbound and then create the external definition.
Look into this blog.
The specified item was not found.
Now use the external definition in your mapping instead of using the original IDOC. In your mapping map the item to IDOC, and for header data you have to use the useOneAsMany function.
Reward if found useful

Vinod.

File-XI-multiple IDoc Scenario

Hi there -
I am working on single File-XI-multiple IDoc Scenario and have following questions:
(please keep in mind that there is already an existing multiple IDocs-XI-single File scenario between the same systems)
1. Please provide any detailed step by step documentation from end-to-end.
2. I am thinking it's compulsory to use BPM, is there any way to aviod?
3. Is it possible to update existing IDocs in R/3 directly from the data from XI?
Thanks everyone in advance...

Hi,
 I would like to know whether you have mapped your customer_master(1..unbounded) node to IDOC(1..unbounded) node???Please check it once.Depending on that only the multiple IDOCs will be generated. I think it is mapping problem only. Have you changed the occurrence of IDOC to unbounded by exporting & then reimporting it to external definitions???? I've already done it & i got multiple IDOcs generated. Please check it and let me know the response so that I can help.
Please follow th below links

Hi Sudheer,
Just the check the message mapping. Check the parant node mappings to create two different messages.
It seems that the mapping done on IDOC Node to create the IDOCs is getting failed.
Copy the content from inbound payload and test it in message mapping.
Remember, when you load the test data into your test tab you will get the error of structure mismatch coz in your mapping you have additional message.
Do the change with original data as shown below befor testing.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
<ns0:Message1>
Original message will be here.

Flat file to multiple IDOCs

Hi experts,
I have a bit of a problem here wit a flat file to IDOC interface.
My input CSV file structure (shortened) is as follows -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:POINBOUND_MT xmlns:ns0="urn:xx:xi:dwn:xx:pf:xxx:poinbound:100">
 <Record>
 <Row>
 <PO_HEADER_ID/>
 <TYPE_LOOKUP_CODE/>
 <LINE_NUM/>
 <AMOUNT_LIMIT/>
 </Row>
 </Record>
</ns0:POINBOUND_MT>
the target side is an idoc - PORDCR1.PORDCR102.
in the input file, for each row the PO_HEADER_ID field will have repeated values. the structure for eg.-
PO_HEADER_ID < other fields> < otherfields> ...
12345 <other fields>..<.. >
12345 <other fields>..<..>
12345 <other fields>..<..>
56789 <other fields>..<..>
56789 <other fields>..<..>
Now i need two idocs ( 2 distinct header values) on target side - the 1st idoc will have first 3 line items and 2nd idoc will have the last 2 line items. have already edited the IDOC in xsd format to make it unbounded.
Problem - i am able to create two idocs by handling contexts(splitbyvalue and a UDF), but with the line items its not working i.e. the first idoc gets the 3 line items created but the 2nd idoc does not have any!
my mapping for line items is -
PO_HEADER_ID <-> splitbyvalue(value changed) <-> count <---> UDF (for result.addvalue using count) <-----> lDOC LINE_ITEM node.
This logic does not work incase i need to create more than one idoc on the target side, it only works for the first idoc..so wat can i do??
Plz help.
thnx in advance!
Raju.

Single file to multiple IDOC's (on Multiple R3 Clients):

Hi,
We have a complex Landscape with multiple (4) businesses (multiple R3) instances and most common R3 --> DEV 4 instances with 5 clients each, QAS 4 instances with 2 clients each with some additional clients, PRD 4 instances with a client each and Training 4 instances with 2 clients each in the Landscape along with BW systems.
We are trying to implement standard MDM - XI - R3 distribution scenario. Only difference being MDM Production will be the Master distribution client and have to be distributing to all the R3 clients. For those who doesn't know SAP MDM - is Master Data Management Engine and within this scenario the output from MDM is standard XML IDOC file.
To achieve this syndication is being planned as MDM production to distribute files to 4 businesses to 4 file share folders. These files will be picked up by XI production and will be distributing(Creating IDOCs) on multiple receivers (R3 --> DEV, QAS and PRD) clients of the respective instances.
The one to one scenario is very simple to build MDM XML file from file adapter to R3 IDOC of IDOC adapter, but for our business it becomes one file to multiple R3 clients (IDOCs) on multiple R3 instances;
My question is: Is there an easy way to configure single file to mutiple R3 client IDOC receivers scenario? Also there might be additions and deletions of the R3 clients based on business requirements. Is there any proposed or already implemented procedure to achieve this complex distribution?
We have planned on trying to define a business system for each R3 client (DEV/QAS/PRD) and to have the integration directories configuration built for all the 47 clients that the data needs to be distributed. With IDOC Adapter is this the only way to go? Also, in future if there are additions or deletions of clients it becomes maintenance intensive and there won't be a quick way to stop the distribution?
Your time and input is appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
-Raj.

Michal,
Thanks for your answer and FAQ.
I think I am confusing everyone with my long messages!
We already have XI DEV, XI QAS, XI PRD.
But business requirement for the global harmonization MDM scenario is that MDM PRD should be able to distribute the XML files (IDOC fields in GLMAST01 - IDOC format) to all the DEV, QAS and PRD (R3) systems in the landscape. For this distribution XI is used as the integration partner (File adapter picks up the XML file from MDM file share location and IDOC adapter creates an IDOC on the respective R3).
For this specific scenario though XI-DEV and XI-QAS systems are present they are available only for testing phase. After the scenario is moved into production, XI-PRD should be able to pick up the XML file from MDM and distribute it to all the DEV, QAS, PRD R3 systems.
Same file needs to be distributed to 20 DEV clients across 4 DEV instances, 27 QAS clients across 4 QAS instances and 12 PRD/TRN(training clients).
Yes, as you said in your answer earlier deleting a client from the distribution is removing the client from the receiver determination (and removal of corresponding Interface determination, sender agreement and receiver agreement).
Addition of a client for distribution is adding the client (business system) in receiver determination (and addition of of corresponding Interface determination, sender agreement and receiver agreement).
Do I have to maintain all the 59 (Clients from different systems) sets of config within the ID and all the systems in SLD of XI - DEV/QAS/PRD? Even if I do so, Is this the right way to go, defining all the DEV/QAS/PRD clients within all the SLD's of XI - DEV/QAS/PRD?
I am not finding an easy way to architect this.
I appreciate your time and patience.
Thanks and regards,
Rajani Kanth Yalamanchili.

Single file to multiple IDOC's

I have a scenario (File to IDOC) where single file creates multiple IDOC's.
I got message mapping error in production for record 622.
Question here is will the IDOC's till entries 621 be created in the ECC system or the entire messaged failed.?
It is sure that from 622 nothing was processed.
Thanks.

So, in Mapping Mapping, in outbound interface, you certainly used an external definition with option "maxOccurs=Unbounded". is that right?
Anyway, as in moni, you have only one XML message, and as you said to us that this message is in error in moni (so red flag), it's the wole message (file) which has been rejected.
Have you check the WE02 (ECC) and IDX5 (PI) ?... because you will have directly your answer of your question "does my file is treated partially ? or completly rejected?" !

From ONE file to Many IDocs in many systems

Hi,
In my scenario i have the input file like below
HEADER;EMPNO;EMPNAME;TARGETSYSTEM
ITEMHEADER;DESG;LEVEL
HEADER;EMPNO;EMPNAME;TARGETSYSTEM
ITEMHEADER;DESG;LEVEL
HEADER;EMPNO;EMPNAME;TARGETSYSTEM
ITEMHEADER;DESG;LEVEL
Here TARGETSYSTEM values are SAPG1,SAPG2 and SAPG3
for each one HEADER and ITEMHEADER i have to create one idoc in the respective receiver system based on the TARGETSYSTEM value.
Based on the TARGETSYSTEM value, idocs should be created in to the respective system.
But problem is :
Its creating 3 idocs in first system, same 3 idocs in second system and same 3 idocs in third system also.
But i want to create one idoc in 1st system and second idoc in 2nd system and third idoc in 3rd system based on the TARGETSYSTEM value.
please help me, how to solve this problem
Thanks & Regards,
Vijji

Hi Vijaya laksmi,
I have seen ur question.
appriciate for doing file to muliple idocs first
without BPM, u can do this scenario ok
but while doing this scenario, u have to do idoc with max occurence ie first, after importing idoc, u have to export to xml file and change occurence inplace of "min occurence " write " min. occurence and Max. occurnce=" and then import this in External definition then u can use this in scenario for multiple idoc. Here don't require more interface mappings ok. u can do this only with one interface mapping. while generating idoc, at the time u have to save and send as multiple idocs how many u have to send to receiver systems just give the no how many idocs.
Even though you won't get it i will send file to multiple idoc scenario ok
all the best
regards

File to multiple idoc scenarios depending on finput field value

Hi,
i have a file to idoc scenario.
depending on a particular field of the file i have to trigger a single idoc (with all the records in the file)or multiple idocs (for each record in the file ).
for example,
the file has 5 records-
2 records have field value A (create 1 idoc for all As)
3 records have field value B (create 1 idoc for each B)
so in this case 4 idocs (1 for all A, and 3x1 for B) are created
What is the best solution ?-
1. to have several outbound idoc interfaces and check each interface mapping for field value (A or B) ?
this solution seems like overwork to me
2. handle this in mapping ?
in that case will UDF be better or ABAP mapping
3. any other way ?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
if you have one IDOC type you can use ABAP mapping
this way you will handle everything in tables
and you will be able to post one IDOC (bundled)
with all IDOCs inside
also if you use ABAP mapping you will be able to incorporate changes
easily in the future I believe
for idoc bundling:

Error Handling in File to Multiple IDOC Scenario?

Hello Experts,
My scenario is file with Multiple records and I want to send it to SAP system.If there will be 10 Records in my file I need to create 10 IDOC in Target system.
I can use below of the two options.
1) File to Multiple Idoc (1.N Mapping)
2) Using BPM
3)Directly place the file in SAP application server and process it via ABAP Program.
However I am not clear in which option error handling will be more effective.Please suggest.
Basically I want to handle If out of 10 records 9 are correct and 1 record is not correct then I should be able to report within PI without affecting 9 correct records.Is it possible 9 records will be sent to SAP system and PI will only show error for 1 incorrect record.
Also I will be doing this scenrio for transaction data with huge size (1 Million Records).Which approach will be more effective in this case.
Thanks,
Pushkar

Hi Patel,
I want to handle If out of 10 records 9 are correct and 1 record is not correct then I should be able to report within PI without affecting 9 correct records.Is it possible 9 records will be sent to SAP system and PI will only show error for 1 incorrect record.
when working on graphical mapping, the target structure is created when there are no errors in all records of source structure.
suppose if we have validation error in 9th and 10th record, then we can not process the first eight records and inturn we can not store the two error records in XI for further.
i suggest you the third option, you can directly place the file in SAP application server and process it via ABAP Program.
this is far better because you can do more customizations as you have to deal with millions of records.

Pradeep A.

File to Multiple Idocs scenario. Pls help

Hi All,
For Single File to Multiple Idocs scenario i am referring blog --
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/877c0d53-0801-0010-3bb0-e38d5ecd352c
Suppose my source file is
AAA, BBB,CCC
111,222,333
ZZZ,ZZZ,ZZZ
I want to make 2 IDOCS for the first 2 records (AAA, BBB,CCC   and 111,222,333)
and do not want to make IDOC for the 3rd record -- how to achive this.
Regards

Hi,
If the condition is like, for 'AAA' and '111', IDocs to be generated, then do as follows.
If IDOCs are of same type.
1. Value
> Equals -
> createIf -
> IDOC
   Constant('AAA')
2. Value
> Equals -
> createIf -
> IDOC
   Constant('111')
3. Value
> Equals -
> not -
> createIf -
> IDOC
   Constant('ZZZ')
If 2 IDocs are of differnet types,
create different mapping programs with same logic.
If 2 IDocs are to be generated based on the record no in the file rather than the first field value, i think you can go for Global container.

Single inbound file - XI - Multiple IDOCs in SAP

Hi XI pros,
my file input file has very simple structure of header and item:
H
L
L
L
Header has 2 fields snd item has 3 fields which I need to map to IDOC and post simple MM document in SAP.
Mapping itself is very easy. I need to create separate IDOC for every item record type L.
Question is whether I can do this in general without BPM ?
Thank you, Forest.

Hi Forest,
Go thru this blog of File to Multiple IDoc's

I think this satisfy ur requirements.
Hope it helps and u don't forget to give me points.

Configuration scenario of file to multiple IDOCs in XI

I have to configure a scenario of file to multiple IDOCs in XI.
I have XML file in MDM server. And it contains multiple segments. Each Segment is a combination of DEBMAS and ADRMAS.
So in XI configuration I have to separate the mapping for DEBMAS and ADRMAS. And my ADRMAS idoc should post first in R3 and then DEBMAS should post.
These IDOCs are multiple because each segment in XML file will be a IDOC.
Does BPM process is mandatory here or we can do in any other way.
Could you please suggest how to do this configuration. If you have any documents pls share with me.
Regards,
Venkat

Hi,
First you need to split the messages into multiple IDOC types. As you are going to send this to IDOC adapter, it is required to have BPM to split the message.
These 2 docs may help u:
