Header and mass mapping

Hi guys
What is the use of header mapping ? What is the use of mass mapping ?

HI
Header mapping mainly used in B2B scenario
Refer to my answer in this thread
Re: Header Mapping
I dont think there is a concept of mass mapping in XI/PI but portal do have mass mappings.
If you refer to Message mapping then it is required to map the payload of the source and target messages
Thanks

Reading Message Header and mapping

Hi,
If a userId is coming in the message header of the source message and I want to map it with one of the fields in the destination structure then How can it be done ?
Can dynamic configuration be of any use here? I have RFC receiver and proxy sender.
Please suggest.

my understanding is your sender is a proxy (ABAP???).
There is a user id as part of the message header and you want to access it during mapping.
Dynamic configuration will not help in this case for a proxy sender. hence the best way is to have that user id stored as a field in the proxy structure itself so that it will be easily used for your mapping. This is the simplest solution.

Hi Shyam,
You can make use of BAPI_PO_CHANGE for this. See the documentation of this BAPI in SE37 for more information.
"You can transfer header and item texts in the PoTextHeader and PoTextItem tables. You import texts
for services in the PoServicesText table. Texts can only be replaced complete."

Header and Footer in not displaying correctly on each page in Adobe Forms

Hi experts,
   I need your little help on Adobe Form. I have develop a customer account statement and facing problem.
     In header and footer part I have to display customer address. It is ok if data is of one page. But when data is overflowing, customer address is showing only at first page in header, and not displaying address neither in header nor in footer(footer section will print on last page, it may be either first page or third page ) on other pages. (Address is table type data )
       Header and footer Section address has been designed on Master Page.
Please help me to resolve these two problems as soon as possible.
Regards
Piyush

I found this post which I hope helps:
This can be done by bit of tweaking using JavaScript.
Actually the problem was, the header was printing continuously in subsequent pages and once the header data was over the rest of the pages contained blank header. But we need have to print same header for each group of items till that group of items finish in the specific page. And for new group of items different header will be filled and so on.
So to overcome this issue, create the item table in such a way that the header data is also included in the item table for each group of items. In the layout, select your header field and the event READY LAYOUT and write the below JavaScript code. This event is called for each page for that header field, so you can directly map the item table value and put it in your header field.
// Get the current page
var currpage = xfa.layout.page(this);
// variable to store number of fields in that page.
var fields = 0;
// Get the number of fields
        fields = xfa.layout.pageContent(currpage-1, "field", 0);
// Loop on each field on the page
        for ( i=0; i<= fields.length-1; i++ )
// Check if the field is in the item table column (it will be actually header data column in your item table)
            if ( fields.item(i).name == "TL" )
// Fetch that value and store in your header field.
                       this.rawValue = fields.item(i).rawValue;

Strange gaps in Header and Footer

Im getting gaps in the header and footer on some of my pages. Sometimes the gaps are filled with the background color of the colomn and other times they are the body color which is even weirder. An example link would be http://www.mojogar.com/pcRepair.aspx . In IE8 I get a gap on top but not the bottom. In Firefox3 the gap is on the bottom and not the top. ???

/* Tips for this Hybrid layout
1. Since the side columns em-based sizing is based on the user's default font size, you will want to be sure that background graphics in the columns take that into account. Built correctly, this is more accessible for those that need larger font sizes, since the width of the columns remains proportionate. If this is undesirable with your design, simply change the width to a pixel size and be sure to change the margins on the #mainContent div accordingly.
2. Since the sizing of side columns in this layout are based on the 100% font size in the body element, if you decrease the text size overall by using a font-size: 80% on the body element or the #container, remember that the column widths will downsize proportionately. You may want to increase their widths, and the size of the #mainContent div's side margins, to compensate for this.
3. If font sizing is changed in differing amounts on each div instead of on the overall design (ie: #sidebar1 is given a 70% font size and #mainContent is given an 85% font size), this will proportionately change each of the divs overall size. You may want to adjust based on your final font sizing.
4. The #container div is not necessary for this layout at the 100% width. You may want to use it to create faux columns or limit the width of the layout.
5. It is not neccessary to have the 100% width on the #container div since, by nature, a div takes up 100% of the available space. It is here so that if you want to decrease the size of the overall container - perhaps leaving a bit of margin on each side - this will already be available for adjustment.
.thrColHybHdr #container {
width: 780px;
/*margin: 0 auto; the auto margins (in conjunction with a width) center the page if needed */
text-align: left;
padding: 0px;
margin-top: 0px;
margin-right: auto;
margin-bottom: 0px;
margin-left: auto;
.thrColHybHdr #header {
background-color: #C9F76F;
height: 100%;
width: 780px;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
.thrColHybHdr #header h1 {
margin: 0;
padding: 0px;
/* Tips for sidebar1:
1. Be aware that if you set a font-size value on this div, the overall width of the div will be adjusted accordingly.
2. Since we are working in ems, it's best not to use padding on the sidebar itself. It will be added to the width for standards compliant browsers creating an unknown actual width.
3. Space between the side of the div and the elements within it can be created by placing a left and right margin on those elements as seen in the ".thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 p" rule.
.thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 {
width: 13em;
border-top-width: thick;
border-top-style: solid;
border-top-color: #C06;
float: left;
height: auto;
.thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 {
width: 200px;
text-align: center;
margin: 0px;
padding: 0px;
float: right;
/*.thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 h3, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar1 p, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 p, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 h3 {
margin-left: 0px;*/ /* the left and right margin should be given to every element that will be placed in the side columns */
/* margin-right: 0px;
/* Tips for mainContent:
1. If you give this #mainContent div a font-size value different than the #sidebar1 div, the margins of the #mainContent div will be based on its font-size and the width of the #sidebar1 div will be based on its font-size. You may wish to adjust the values of these divs.
2. The space between the mainContent and sidebar1 is created with the left margin on the mainContent div. No matter how much content the sidebar1 div contains, the column space will remain. You can remove this left margin if you want the #mainContent div's text to fill the #sidebar1 space when the content in #sidebar1 ends.
3. To avoid float drop, you may need to test to determine the approximate maximum image/element size since this layout is based on the user's font sizing combined with the values you set. However, if the user has their browser font size set lower than normal, less space will be available in the #mainContent div than you may see on testing.
4. In the Internet Explorer Conditional Comment below, the zoom property is used to give the mainContent "hasLayout." This avoids several IE-specific bugs that may occur.
.thrColHybHdr #mainContent {

Your HTML code contains conditional comments for IE. Try reducing or removing the extra padding and see if that helps.
/* place css fixes for all versions of IE in this conditional comment */
.thrColHybHdr #sidebar1, .thrColHybHdr #sidebar2 { padding-top: 30px; }
.thrColHybHdr #mainContent { zoom: 1; padding-top: 15px; }
/* the above proprietary zoom property gives IE the hasLayout it needs to avoid several bugs */

Ovi maps and Nokia Maps

I have recently downloaded the ovi maps update for free navigation on my 5800 however now I seem to have 2 programs in my installed apps menu, Ovi maps and Nokia maps. This is causing me some problems as my phones built in memory is now completely full and I am unable to do some things as I have ran out of on phone memory space. Which one is the main map software? And also can I uninstall one? If not then can it be installed on a MSD card and if yes how?

As far as I can determine Ovi maps is the mapping software (program) which installs to C (phone memory) and Nokia maps is the map data that you have loaded which I believe are installed to E (mass memory).
I can confirm that you do need both installed.
The problem as far as I can see is that the previous maps versions 3.01 is built into the current firmware (v20 for N97 - not sure for 5800) and installing maps 3.03 does not remove or overwrite the earlier version so you end up with both versions installed and thus the extra memory footprint.
This will remain a problem until a newer firmware is released which will hopefully have maps 3.03 (or later depending when next firmware is released) thus reducing the extra 9 megs or so used.
Hope this answers your question

Accessing SAP:HopList element in message header from JAVA-mapping

Dear Experts,
Is it possible to access the SAP:HopList element from message header in JAVA-mapping?
I need this to get the list off all receivers of current message (I have a ReceiverDetermination with two receivers, without any conditions, so both receivers are receiving each message and in InterfaceDetermination to one of the receivers I have a JAVA-mapping, in which I need to know the name of another receiver. And the SAP:HopList is containing this information).
Or maybe where is some other solution?
Best Regards,
Artsiom Anichenka

That's tricky, since the proper way of doing it would be through BPM.
Anyway, if you expose your XI interface as a WebService (Soap sender cc) you could access it through Mapping Lookup (lookup works for RFC, DB and Soap lookups). Check https://help.sap.com/javadocs/NW04S/current/pi/index.html
But be aware that Mapping Lookup API is not intended for inserts/updates (since it doesn't contain any transacational handling), just mere lookups (selects in tables), so I'm not sure it is the best approach for your case.
Regards,
Henrique.

Message and Java Mapping

Hello -
I have a java mapping and a message mapping implemented in one interface.
Java mapping basically adds a header and does nothing else.
Message mapping has all the mapping. Its not complex but straight.
I have the Message mapping first and then the Java mapping in the Interface Mapping.
what happens is i could see the headers written through Java mapping in my output xml file which is good but i cannot view the message mapping output in the file.
Any ideas.
Thanks,
Tirumal

Hi
I am generating the headers in the java mapping using this:
public void startDocument ()
throws SAXException {
write("<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>");
write("<!DOCTYPE cXML SYSTEM 'http://xml.cxml.org/schemas/cXML/1.1.008/cXML.dtd'>");
Maintain Order at Runtime is checked in the Interface Determination.
Ok, in the interface Mapping Editor i get 2 messages:
1.
11:09:48 Start of test
Call method execute of the application Java mapping com.sap.xi.tf._Orders_MM_
Java mapping com/sap/xi/tf/_Orders_MM_ completed. (execute() of com.sap.xi.tf._Orders_MM_
Call method execute of the application Java mapping com.sap.aii.mapping.api.SampleWithSaxParser
Java mapping com/sap/aii/mapping/api/SampleWithSaxParser completed. (execute() of com.sap.aii.mapping.api.SampleWithSaxParser
Executed successfully
11:09:48 End of test
2. XML not well formed
None of the above messages seem to be of Message Mapping don't know why its not getting written in the output.
Thanks,
Tirumal

XI 7.0 passing attributes between java mapping and message mapping

Hi all,
Here's a newbie question. There is a scenario where an interface mapping has several stages of java mapping and message mapping
I would like to know how to set attributes in the java mapping so that it can be accessed in a message map (or vice versa). What I intend to do is pass some information from one mapping to the other so that action can be taken based on the values passed.
Thank you!

Another option is storing the values in the message header in the same way as the Adapter-Specific Message Attributes:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/09b16006526e72e10000000a422035/frameset.htm
Just use your own name/namespace combination, which is not used in any adapter.
If possible use the way that Sandro proposed and add the information which you need to additional tags in the payload.

Stefan

Difference of FixValues and Value Mapping in Message Mapping

Hi
I would like to know the exact difference between the "FixValues" and Value Mapping. And the Scenarios of usage.
If i use Value Mappings, value mappings more for fixed values or can they be used for business data that will change ?
If the flow is from "Non SAP to SAP System" then if i maintain the "Value Mapping Tables" in Message Mapping, Do i need to maintain the same Value Mapping tables on SAP System. If this is the case, it will be over head of maintaining on both sides.
More thankful if you clarify my doudt.
Regards
Shailaja

Hi,
your question is best explained in the following link(PDF).
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/9202d890-0201-0010-1588-adb5e89a6638
Its given in the 75th page.
>>If the flow is from "Non SAP to SAP System" then if i maintain the "Value Mapping Tables" in Message Mapping, Do i need to maintain the same Value Mapping tables on SAP System.
I think this is not needed.its not needed to maintain value mapping tables in SAP system.
hope this helps.

In the line item col1 changes its posting key.
Header is reapeating for every line items how to map the above in LSMW .
How to upload the data only when the Reference document number is changing??
Thanks and regards,

Hi ,
at Step 3-->maintain source fields -->Double Click on the Key Field -->Tick the check of Selection Field....
here you need to decide which one is the key field...if you dont have key field in Item level then create one.

Receiver FCC Structure For Header and Trailer

Hi Guys ,
I need to go for receiver FCC for header and trailer in PI .How the FCC in communication channel needs to be configured if I am taking a separate node for header and trailer in mapping .Output of the file should be as the file attached.
Thanks.
Regards.

Hi,
If you are using File communication channel as a reciver you can go with FCC.
Use record set structure as : Header,detail,trailer.

Otherwise if you are going for SFTP to create the file ... follow the Indrajit suggestion..
Still facing any issue.. Please let us know..

Header and Item Odata through SEGW

Hi,
I know that this Topic was raised million times, but still raising this query. I have already consulted http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/e0d92637-3d0d-2f10-ebb2-efc1f40a85e8?QuickLink=index&… link.
Requirement: Create Header and Item Odata THROUGH SEGW.
Steps I have followed:
1. Created Header and Item Structure and have added them in the Export Parameters of an RFC.
2. Created the RFC and have populated the the internal tables corresponding to the Header and Item structures.
3. Go to Transaction SEGW and Imported the Header from the RFC. Then created Read and Query mapping for Header.
4. Go to Transaction SEGW and Imported the Item from the RFC. Then created Read and Query mapping for Item.
5. Created an association between "ID" of Header with "ID" of Item. Cardinality- 1:N
Observation:
Now when I run the Odata and execute /sap/opu/odata/sap/ZTEST_SRV/HDRSet(2)/ITEMSet, I get all the Items from the Item table for Each and every Header. But I guess for every header corresponding Items should have been enlisted.
Is there any step that I am missing?
Important: In the MPC class(ZCL_TEST_MPC), I could see a method named DEFINE_ASSOCIATION. I have put an external Breakpoint in it, but this breakpoint is not triggered.

Hii Dhru,
In addition to the steps followed, you have to create navigation property using association created.
You have to implement Get_expand_entityset method in DPC method for multiple headers and corresponding items and for single header and corresponding items you have to implement GET_EXPANDENTITY method.
The URL is as format below :
/sap/opu/odata/sap/<service name>/<Header entity set>/?$expand=<navigation property from header to item>&$filter= eq '<ID>' '<value>'
Example URL : https://<server>:<port>/.../<service_name>/SalesOrders?$expand=SalesOrderItems
For reference :
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_gateway20sp08/helpdata/en/ca/c683e803494b77a2e1290b987556e2/content.htm
When GET_EXPANDED_ENTITYSET method invoked
For get_expanded_entity_set method implementation please refer the below URL

Lsmw header and item.

Hi experts,
I have problem with uploading data for quatation using lsmw. in this lsmw, i used recording method. i have two structure . one for header and another for item. when i am mapping, its not showing the item structure. can anyone explain this problem ?
Regards,
Varadarajan.R

Hi,
You can create Both in a single LSMW.you Need to create two Structures in STEP 2.,One for HEADER and Other for Line.
Then In step three Maintain The source fields for both separately.I think you will be Able to do it.
In one of our requirement we did the same for Long text and long Text item.
The better way is through SAP SCRIPTING but i doubt whether in your project that is feasible or not..
Regards,
Rahul
