EDI SEEBurger Adapter

We are evaluating XI for ANSI X12 EDI , Have some EDI Quesitions using SEEBurger Adapter.
1) Does SEEBurger Adpater has ANSI X12 Enveloping and De-Enveloping capabilities ??? If Yes,how this is configured /Developed.
2) Does SEEBurger Adapter has capability of generating sequential ISA control numbers by Trading Partner ??? If Yes,how this is configured /Developed.
3) Can It perform EDI Structure validation based on the EDI standard rules (For eg: Looping structures, Element qualifier restriction list .....)

Hi,
Seeburger is a tool which will conver any type of standard EDI format into XML.
All standard EDi mappings are predefined in seburger,we have to install in XI Server and use that standard mappings.

EDI TRADACOM through Seeburger Adapter into PI

Has anybody configured communication channel in PI using Seeburger Adapter to convert EDI TRADACOM into xml ?
Is there a useful tutorial to have a look at ?

>>Has anybody configured communication channel in PI using Seeburger Adapter to convert EDI TRADACOM into xml ?
Yes
>>Is there a useful tutorial to have a look at ?
Well, there is nothing specific avauilable for TRADACOM. TRADACOM is just a type of format as we have EDIFACT OR X12. You can search for EDIFACT related articles/blogs on SCN (there are many). The only thing you then need is to use TRADACOM related mapping name in BIC module wherever you see EDIFACT mapping name.
One more thing, for using TRADACOM, there is a separate licence where Seeburger provides the TRADACOM related SWC with all the formats. So talk to Seeburger about this as well.

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

Bsi mapping in seeburger adapter

hi experts,
i want to know about bic mapping in idoc to edi scenarios in which i am using seeburger adapter.please help me and provide me some documentation.

Hi,
BIC is mapping tool which converts EDIFACT to EDI_XML.
You will be accepting EDI flat file i.e. csv file and using BIC you will map it 1:1 mapping ....this flat file will be converted into EDI_XML after mapping.

IDOC to EDI Seeburger Mapping Issue

Hi,
I am new to seeburger, Currently I am working on PAYEXT IDOC to EDI scenario using seeburger adapter.
As per my little knowledge i can understand that i need two step mapping:
1) IDOC XML to EDI XML
2) EDI XML to EDI
Now the problem is how can i do 1st mapping if i have to do 1:1 mapping in PI mapper than it will be a tedious task as I dont know which idoc field is mapped to which EDI XML field.
Also i dont know how i can map the 2nd mapping.
when we installed seeburger adapter than i got three files from basis guys related to PAYEXT
msg_PAYEXT_UN_D96A.xml
msg_XML_PAYEXT_UN_D96A.xml
XML_PAYEXT_UN_D96A.xsd
Note: I imported .xsd file in IR, but i dont know what to do with these xml files.
Please experts reply soon as it is delaying my project
Regards,
Shradha

Shradha,
You can check the seeburger software component versions where all the mappings would be provided by Seeburger as part of the package.
You can have a look whether PAYEXT is there and would be useful
To start with
1. You need a functional or EDI Business analyst to guide you on the various mapping specifications needed.
2. You should also liase with your business partners to prepare an business rules and other conditions.
3.Also decide whether you are going to deliver it via AS2 communication or via VAN
4. Accordingly you need to configure the seeburger adapters.
5.The mappings provided to you are from XML to EDI and EDI to XML which is a second stage automatically done by seeburger once you specify the module steps in the comms channel.
I am afraid that without knowing business rules or mapping specifications, you can't work on EDI.
Regards
Krish

EDI Seeburger Message Spliter

Hi,
I am testing a EDI ANSI X12 850 Vxxxx using SEEBURGER adapter in SAP PI. It is a simple file to IDOC scenario. I have configured all the ID objects (includng the Split 997 channel). But when i try to configure the Message Splitter in Seeburger workbench, i am not able to access the service and Channel. The buttons are not active. Do i need to do any other setup before trying to do this ?

Hi,
After entering the party and services need to click on the search button of the services to display the channel names...
and similarly for the other objects...(buttons will get activated after clicking on the search...)

Yves,
I think there is some problem in invoking the seeburger adapter. Have you installed the adapter? Also after installing you have to import the metadata. Check this document for further help:

Seeburger Adapter

Hi all,
I have installed a generic seeburger FTP adapter, but I dont have any VAN connectivity at present. Can I convert the EDI ANSI X12 format to xml with this installation or it requires VAN connectivity to do this.
In this case do we require the BIC mapper? if so how to work with BIC mapper?
In the communication channel, I am able to see the installed Seeburger FTP adapter but it does not show the transport and message protocol. Is this related to the Installation/setup of VAN connection.

Extended any-to-any-conversion.
The SEEBURGER Business Integration Converter (BIC) is an Any-To-Any Format converter, used to translate EDI data and legacy data formats into XML and vice versa. It can also be used for complex,high performance XML-to-XML mappings or to interface to existing JDBC Data Sources.
Supported EDI formats include: ANSI, EDIFACT, INHOUSE, IDOC, XML Schema, XML DTD, CSV,Delimited Data, positional data, SWIFT, EANCOM and many more.
Mapping Designer, a graphical tool, easily defines data format conversions via drag and drop functionality, enabling easy integration between source and destination files. A central mapping reposiu00ADtory enables comprehensive support of versioning and deployment support, such as self-testing and auditing.
The SAP Exchange Infrastructure message format is based on XML, but it also can work with non-XML data using attachments. In some cases it may be necessary to convert the main XML document in a message, into a non-XML document. The use of BIC is very common in Business-to-Business scenarios where EDI standards are in use.
The Business Integration Converter (BIC) of Seeburger is based on Java JIT Technology and can be used for small real-time messages, as well as very large master data (i.e.Catalogs) batches.
BIC can convert outbound invoices from XML format (used in SAP XI) to an EDIFACT invoice. The conversion can be executed before the message is transmitted to the business partner. The other way around, once an EDIFACT message has been received from the business partner, it must first be converted to XML format, which is the format SAP XI supports.
The most direct way of using the Seeburger adapters is to configure the BIC as a module. BIC will allow you to do the following
Once you install BIC, you need to do Import the Generator Mappings into the Project Explorer of BIC MappingDesigner.
You can find Generator Mappings as a ZIP file in the following location <BICMappingDesignerInstallationDirectory>\user\bicmd\Exchange and select the file prj_GeneratorMappings.zip.bicmd.
In MappingDesigner select File Import Generator Mappings Zip File prj_GeneratorMappings.zip.bicmd Clik on Add and OK.
Once Import is done you can see Generator Mappings in BIC Mapping Designer.

HI,
There are seeurger adapters, we can use , but we can use also with the file with seeburger modules also. Its all depends upon the what type of seeburger adapter was installed on your server and what are all the modules installed.

Where do we configure Seeburger adapter in case of outbound?

<b>Hello Freinds,
Can you please help me out where do we configure the Seeburger adapter if the sender is EDI ANSIX12...I mean at what point of time we use this Seeburger adapter to convert to XI Specific XML format?</b>

Hi
seeburger adapter is used when you want to convert an EDI format into the EDI XML format so that it can be uunderstand by the XI, bcoz XI can understand only the XI.
seeburger have povioded following adapters
1.AS2
2.OFTP
3.FTP/VAN
4.X400P7
the selection of the adapter depends on the requirement.

How to configure Seeburger adapter

Hi All,
Can you pls guide me on how to configure adapter? and also why do we need mercerator and converstion agent tools along with see burger adapter?
Can't find any doc on how to configure seeburger adapter!!!
Can someone pls put light on the messageflow when seeburger and these converstion agents are used?
Regards,
Ashish

Hi Ashish,
It is similar like other adapters once it is supplied. But take care about security/firewalls settings.
and also why do we need mercerator and converstion agent tools along with see burger adapter?
>>>Not a mandatory to use along with seeburger.
Can someone pls put light on the messageflow when seeburger and these converstion agents are used?Can't find any doc on how to configure seeburger adapter!!!
>>>Seeburger EDI Adapter provides an EDI solution on internet via HTTP or AS2 to replace the expensive VAN. It provides some pre-built mappings for IDOC to ANSI X12(810,850,855,856 etc.,) and Idoc to EDIFACT(ORDERS,DESADV,INVOIC etc.,) and has the ability to build your own. These pre-defined mappings transform the IDOC-XML to EDI-XML format.
These transformed EDI-XML messages are then converted to EDI specific format using the Seeburger's BIC(Business Integration Converter)adapter. In addition, Seeburger provides adapters like AS2,FTP(EDI specific) and so on to route these EDI messages to external EDI Partners.
Seeburger EDI Adapter leverages SAP XI's Adapter Framework. This Adapter is used to perform conversion between EDI and XML format. It also provides some canned EDI layouts and the ability to build your own. It is used to transfer the EDI message via HTTP or AS2 protocols.
The most direct way of using the Seeburger adapters is to configure the BIC as a module. There is a software component from seeburger called bicmapper which will allow you to do the following:
1. define or import the inbound message metadefinition in various formats ( edifact, xml,...)
2. using a mapping create an xml variant as the output metadefinition or edifact in the other direction.
3. create a one to one mapping between input en output.
4. export the metadata in xsd or sda format for import in XI
5. generate an SDA which can be deployed in XI and used as a module.
Please go through the following links which clearly explains what you want and it also helps you in understanding the same in depth:

SEEBURGER adapter - How much does it help?

We have a PI box just installed and we'll be implementing a few EDI transactions with some business partners.
I was told that SEEBURGER is the preferred EDI adapter for EDI transmissions from PI (XI).
1 - How much does SEEBURGER help the development of PI EDI interfaces? Is there a way to estimate on how much work is saved using it instead of relying on standard? (lets say 10, 20 or 30%)?
2 - I am considering here 2 options (Use SEEBURGER or not). Is there a better alternative?
Thanks
Leonardo

Hi,
For EDI implementation there are ways by which u can implement with XI
1) Using third party seeburger adapter.
2) Conversion agent
3) Writing module.
Preferred one is seeburger.
1) It has std XSD available which we just need to import into External definition
2) It has std mappings for all the message type which converts EDI to XML and XML to EDI format.
3) Provides different adaters
4) BIC tool
5) Many adapter modules.
Seeburger adapters like OFTPS,AS2,X400 are used for B2B scenario where the file is coming through WAn network or mailbox. As XI dont have capability to convert the EDIFACT format file to XML the same work will be done by seeburger adapters.
The SEEBURGER Business Integration Converter (BIC) is an any-to-any format converter, used to translate EDI data and legacy data formats into XML and vice versa. It can also be used for complex, high performance XML-to-XML mappings or to interface to existing JDBC data sources.
Supported EDI formats include:
ANSI
EDIFACT
INHOUSE
IDOC
XML Schema
XML DTD

See for converting the EDI XML to EDI and XML-EDI you need to have a seeburger mapping program at the adapter module which does the conversion. For this module you need a BIC tool of seeburger which provides the different module program for EDI to XML and XML-EDI. This program needs to be deployed on XI and through adapter it has to be called for conversion.
It provides std mapping program which does the conversion of EDI to XML and XML to EDI which need to used in XI comm channel module tab.

Seeburger Adapter Payload & XML Structure for AS2

Does anyone have a sample AS2 message with payload that I can use to test the Seeburger AS2 adapter for a customer in the UK?
Thanks in advance

Hi Frederic
we will be receiving Tradacoms over AS2. I understand that the Seeburger adatper uses the modules from BIC to convert to XI-SOAP ( XML ), but we need to have the schema created for us to construct the data types or to import external definitions into IR. I would like an actual AS2 message without header and signature if possible or a schema version of the tradacoms messsage format for EPOS data. Or if applicable the mapping program that the BIC module will call from the Seeburger adapter. I have the config guide for the BIC, so I know where to configure, but I need the mappping program which will create the XML prior to sending to XI.
Thanks.
I can send you a sample EDI message ( which will be the attachment ) if you give me your email address.
Cheers,
Mark
