How to send message from multiline container to same webservice or bus. sys

Question

Hi All,
I want to send message from multiline container to a syn web service sequentially.
I am getting that multiline container after a transformations step (1: n mapping).
where i dont known what will be the value for n (number of message in multiline container). This will vary; depend upon input message to BPM.
Scenario is like this.
1. Receive step
2. Transfromation to 1: n
3. Want to send message from multiline container to a web service (business service),default loop and block step doesn’t give desirable result.
any help will be appreciable
Regards,
Adish

Not necessarily.
When you use block step in ForEach mode, you can select the container variable from:
- a receiver container;
- an interface container;
The line element can then be either a receiver or an interface.
The problem is that for this to work, the interfaces need to be async (since they are to be used as containers) and hence you won't be able to make your scenario work.
But again, explain why your scenario with loop step didn't work.
The only gap here is how to determine the number of loops (defining the counter variable value). But that can be easily solved if you include a new message with occurrence 1 as a target message of your mapping and as a container in your bpm.
This new message needs only 1 single field, that should be filled with the number of messages you've created in the mapping (you could use count standard function, f.ex.).
In your bpm, make sure to pass this fields value into the counter container right after your transformation step.
