Customize EDI interface

Hi -
I am required to customize an EDI interface, here's what I need to do..
While triggering DELVRY03 Idoc from delivery doc, I need to go to couple of z-tables(X-references) and pick required data (corresponding values) and insert it in Idoc by overwriting on the data populated in few of the Idoc segments.
Can you please advice how can I do this?
Thank you,
Sruthi

Hi Aparna,
I don't have to extend the Idoc, I just have to change the value in the fields of the Idoc by looking at some X-ref tables.
Ex. If E1EDK01-BELNR == 'ABC', then I have to go to a X-ref table and pick a value corresponding to 'ABC' and populate that in BELNR instead of 'ABC'.
Can you please suggest how this can be done?
Thank you,
Sruthi.

EDI Interface

Hi,
        I've got two questions. Requesting answers.
1. By studying the scenario of an interface, how do we come to know whether to
     use ALE or EDI interface?
2. What is the process for configuring the EDI outbound interface when it is File-
     Based?
Thanks,
John.

EDI interface with MM

Hi Gurus,
I want to have detailed information on EDI interfaces with MM. A detailed explanation will be highly appreciated.
thanks,
Kumar

Hi
EDI interface with MM can be anything that may be required as per the scenario needed. Any interface to SAP from legacy using EDI application. The most imagined interface can be Say there is a third party system in which Purchase orders or Req are entered by different Buyers and those need to be interfaced to SAP for creating the orders in SAP.
Similarly another thing that can be imagined is Material movements posting from a third party warehouse system
Please let me know if you have any specific question on this.
Thanks

EDI interface estimates

I need to do a high level estimate of time needed for a XI resource to configure (mapping) the following 3 EDI interfaces:
Outbound interface
EDI 404 - Bill of Lading
EDI 820 - FreightPayments
Inbound interface
EDI 810 - Invoice
THIS ALL CONSIDERING STANDARD MESSAGES WITHOUT ENHANCEMENTS
I would like to have a high level estimate of how long it takes to configure them in XI (Mapping, partner definition, etc).
Could you please give me a ball park on how much time would be required for it?
Thanks a lot
Leonardo De Araujo

Hi Leonardo,
That depends upon individual....
Actually u can design any interface within hours if u r having the correct technical specification ....problem occurs when u gonna test ur scenarios....
A scenario will be treated as completed only u have got ur desired output.
So... if ur mapping is simple then i dont think it will take more than 1 hor to develop 1 interface.
Actually time required in compex mappings,if u need to write code for proxie....
thats all i know...

ECC 6.0 Upgrade from 4.7 - EDI Interfaces

Hi Gurus,
Need your inputs on what are the precautions to be taken during ECC 6.0 Upgrade related to EDI Interfaces. with SAP upgrading from 4.7 to ECC 6.0, do you see any precautions need to be taken considering the middle ware involvement. Also, is there any changes in IDOC Structures in ECC 6.0 which my cause issues related mapping with middleware.
Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards,
C.L. Narasimhan "CLN"

Hi,
generally, a release upgrade, delivers new idoc/message types or new releases of existing idoc/message types.
So, taking this in mind, you shouldn't have problems for the mapping of the messages, because the versions of the basic idoc, once released, cannot be changed.
You might have some application problems related to the inbound interfaces, but this is part of the game...the testing phase will highlight whether the problem exists.
A known problem is that the upgrade removes all the customer specific entries in the system table EDIFCT.
Further details are provided in the OSS note [https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/865142]

How to add new payment methods to an existing EDI interface to bank

Hello:
<b>Requirment:</b> Need to add two new payment methods to an existing EDI interface to bank. As of now only USD EFT's are sent. With the new set up we need to be able to send CAD and USD checks and CAD EFT's to that particualr bank.
<b>Scenario:</b> The payment methods are all set up in the payment program. I need two separate variants on the program RFF0EDI1 thats triggers the EDI file. The trigger of the EDI after the payment run should have a different variant... but the message type ought to be the same.
Can some one please exlpain how I should go about setting this up. Thank you.

I figured out the way to do it myself, after poking around the system for hours together.
All I need to do was to make config changes in FI12- define the posting rules and the bank accounts the checks needs to be drawn against. Also adding the payment method "C" in the DME section of the FI12. Next check and see if the Idoc message types have been set to what was required by clicking on "EDI partner profile in the DME section. Also to have different varaints for the program RFF0EDI1 , I just had to goto SE38 select the program and create the new variant. For enabling EDI I had to do some config changes in FBZP- MAINTAIN PAYMENT PROGRAM CONFIGURATION: PAYMENT METHODS in country, Delete the entry made in the "Name of print data set" in the form print section and enter "RFF0EDI" under "Name of the print program" in the form data section. If anybody needs any other information , please let me know. Thanks everyone.

Sender / Receiver ID mapping for EDI interfaces and Type of seeburger adapt

We need to set up a interface using Seeburger adapter for Purchase order IDOC to 850 EDI mapping.. After reading from SDN,
1) We can use the standard mapping in BIC MD to do E2X and X2E mapping..
2) We can use any of the AS2, EDI generic adapter, Seeburger FTP adapter or Seeburger SFTP adapter...
How do we decide which adapters should be chosen? I can see that it makes sense to use SFTP adapter or AS2 adapter for security...
Also how do we map Sender and Receiver IDs on the EDI message.. Should this be hardcoded as part of mapping or is there any facility in seeburger adapter to do this? I saw some references to Party Identifiers and not sure how it is used in setting up Sender/ Receiver ID
Also the graphical mapping to convert IDOC XML to EDI XML, Do we have standard mapping defined or do we need to create our own graphical mapping.

Hi Kris,
I had worked in the somehow same scenario, It was IDOC to EDIFACT file.
I can give you few clues which might be helpful
In BIC MD you have to create your own mapping if the standard mapping is not available (First check all the standard mappings in BIC). For your reference you need X2E mapping, as your scenario is IDOC to 850 EDI.
"the graphical mapping to convert IDOC XML to EDI XML, Do we have standard mapping defined or do we need to create our own graphical mapping."
In graphical mapping i created my own mapping, Seeburger has given some sample mappings you can check those for your reference (SEEBURGER_GENERIC_EDI software component). Mostly you have to create your own. You need a document from your functional consultant so that you are able to map correct fields and constants.
"how do we map Sender and Receiver IDs on the EDI message.. Should this be hardcoded as part of mapping or is there any facility in seeburger adapter to do this? I saw some references to Party Identifiers and not sure how it is used in setting up Sender/ Receiver ID"
This has been generally hardcoded in message mapping (In my case i hardcoded). If any of ur IDOC field contains that data you can map that field. But better Idea is ask your functional expert.
"How do we decide which adapters should be chosen? I can see that it makes sense to use SFTP adapter or AS2 adapter for security... "
You can choose adapter according to your requirement. In my case i used File adapter as i have to create file in PI server only. My suggestion you can use SFTP for seeburger
Hope these points are helpfu for u

Customize Webi interface

Hi,
We are planning to expose Webi report to our client, when they saw the Webi 4.0 Design Mode, they complaint that the interface is too complex, so we are thinking of using SDK to customize the Web Intelligent interface, is there a way to reduce the top tool bar options? I know i can disable the tool bar options by security, but i not only want to disable, i also want to remove the tool bar options completely. Is it possible?
Thanks

Hi Adam -
Does this mean that Extension Points for JRP and DHTML viewer are not supported for BI 4? I know that these are supported and can be secured at the User Group level to enable/disable viewer and authoring components for the said technology modes so I assume your response refers to BI 4.

Designing EDI Interfaces for Advance Shipment Notification and POD

Our client does not engage in manufacturing and distribution of its products and components. They have developed partnerships with companies who provide distribution, manufacturing, shipping and movement services. They have authorized Forwarding Agents to transport the shipment. However, our client monitors and controls the business operations and remains the final authority in decision making.
The distribution company does the actual delivery and sends our client shipment confirmation (EDI-856). A single IDOC (SHPCON) comes in and performs the following functions
   Update the delivery document (set picking value based on what shipped)
   Generate a shipment document (with Handling Unit Information)
    Post Goods Issue
We are facing performance issue with this kind of setup and the remedy suggested is to have multiple IDOC types to come in and create the shipment document and do the PGI separately.
I would like to hear experiences from practitioners on how they designed this requirement with other clients

Hi Prabhahar,
Try in this transaction NACE.
Select V2 for Shipping. And click output types.
Select LALE (Shipping Notification to Sold-to-party) or LAVA (Outgoing Shipping Notification) and use the Program RSNASTED for EDI processing and customize with the help of ABAPer.
Hope this helps.
Thanks

IRep EDI Interfaces and ISG

Hi,
I understand with the version 12 of E-Business Suite ISG and IRep are included with it. With respect to that, it will be great if someone in the B2B space can confirm if:
1. The following interaces are avaliable in iRep and ISG to be service enabled? What product/component dependency do they have?
- Purchasing Headers Open Interface ECERRQI
- OUT: Purchase Order (850/ORDERS) ECEPOO
- OUT: Application Advice (824/APERAK) ECEADVO
- IN: Ship Notice/Manifest (856/DESADV) ECASNI
- IN: Invoice (810/INVOIC) ECEINI
- OUT: Purchase Order Change (860/ORDCHG) ECEPOCO
2. Will the above Open Interfaces load/produce the respective UN/EDIFACT documents mentioned OOTB? Or Is there a seperate EDI translator required?
Appreciate any additional information/document/links on transacting EDIFACT documents with E-business suite.
Thanks in advance.

BPM Workspace Customization & User Interface: Best Practice Question

Hi All,
This is our first BPM Project in house and we are on Oracle BPM 11g.
The business process involves request for approval for a permit from a public user and internal users need to approve/reject the same. Pretty simple and straightforward so far.
But we are now having lots of questions wrt to user interface.
1. Work Space Changes.
If we develop this application completely in Oracle BPM, the outside user (general public) will also see the 'workspace' with its current interface. It would be impossible to handle user training on this interface for a simple Joe Bloe, who may not be computer savvy) So the requirement documents demand that the look and feel of the outside users should be totally different than what the workspace provides. They want this to be customized in such a way that iit would strip all of the default lay out (left navigation bar, and get rid of the upper section completely. with its list of tabs) and also to modify the task list that appears below).
We have figured out how to achieve this (by modifying the workspace .jar files and recompiling the same), but is this a good approach? What happens if we are developing a brand new application on the BPM in our shop? This change will affect that application as well, as the workspace is shared and common to all the apps? I want some of you experts to let us know, your thoughts on this. If this is not a recommended practice, what would be best way to achieve what we want using Oracle BPM? (Where we want a simple intuitive user interface, without the default add ons that comes with the work space)...
2. What would be the best method to create a user registration page (where a user creates his own login and password and maintains his account) for an application using the BPM ? Right now we are thinking this should be in either a ADF page/ JSP page or (worst case a PL SQL cartridge) that can be launched on the browser, which will be open and does not require any kind of authentication to access. Is this a good practice or recommended one? Or are we missing out on something within BPM application itself, that we are not aware of and that would let us do this?
3. Also, if we go with an external ADF application for the 'public' user interface developement, then how can we (or can we) leverage the BPM's internal storage for the submitted data from the payload? I understand that it stores this information currently on the server 'soa infra' tables some where? Thru an external ADF app, can we write into these tables (Is this recommended or just sounds plain ridiculous)???
Knowing answers to these questions will help us decide, if this is the right tool for the job at hand.
Appreciate your time and xpertise.
Thanks

How do you customize the interface?

My question: how can I adjust the user interface to bring back just a little of the 3-d effect? Are there files that can be copied back from Mavericks, for instance?
I'm having difficulty using the Yosemite interface just like I do with Windows: there isn't enough information to tell me what's clickable. This "flat" trend takes away the visual affordances that I rely on. I am not the sort who memorizes "where to click" or what all the icon graphics are meant to mean, especially in software that I don't use often. I've almost completely given up using iPads because of interface flatness — it's just easier to go back to pencil-and-paper now that I often can't tell what's interactable and what's just decoration! Apple used to engineer all this so very well, and for me it's sad to see that they're now pursuing trendy looks ahead of functional design.
Note that this is not a question about taste. It's purely about user interface usability. But if you can answer this, it might help the people who have taste-based issues about Yosemite as well.
I won't have much choice about which version of OS X I use either. I'll keep Mavericks on my home computer, but my work computer has to be kept in sync with the institutional norms so Yosemite looks inevitable there.

Thanks for the suggestion, but I am looking for the 3-d contouring that makes clickable things look clickable, as opposed to increasing the contrastiness of it all. I actually find it distractingly jumpy even with contrast low — though there is a chance that I may end up simply getting used to it with time.

hi everyone
I have to send PO details to a 3rd party through EDI via XML
I wanted to ask if I have to do configurations just like IDOC i.e.
1) create logical system
2) create port
3) create partner profile
The for the XML conversion, I dont know
Can anybody confirm if the above steps should be done and what any other additional configurations should be made?

EDI Interfaces

HI All,
I have very much experience in SAP EDI,ALE and Idocs as an consultant in my previous company,now i had changed my job and i am client location,here i am working on the same thing but they are not using EDI where it can be used,instead they are keeping the files manualy in the application server and we had written a program which will post the files to the sap database.
now i wants to show the cient that this can be done better by EDI application,i have experience working on this but not the experience to show case the thing.. i mean
how can i show the clent how EDI can be helpful here and i have few questions
in my above scenario how can i use EDI
for using EDI what are the pre-reqisities from the hardware point of view i mean i know we need a subsystem,,,is it some thing like java connector whcih can be downloaded for free.in simple how can i start start an EDI based project what are all the things i need to handle and take into consideration. please help....
Babita

Hi,
You can demonstrate the posting of data in SAP using WE19 by creating test IDoc.
However if you want to demonstrate the whole EDI scenario starting from text file to posting of data in system, then you need EDI subsystem.
Usually EDI subsystem connects with SAP using RFC connection which need to be setup in SM59; however this could vary with each EDI system.
Apart from setting in SAP you need setting and mapping in EDI subsystem which will map data from your text file to IDOC data structure (IDoc type) depending on the type of data.
Did you found any reason why your client is using this method. I mean they might have a good reason for that. And if this approach is working fine and if you canu2019t see any bottleneck in future then I think it might be overhead to replace the existing system with EDI.
