How to test file to idoc scenario?

Sender side: flat file
Receiver side : IDOC
Using file content conversions for sender file.
my question when flat file is picked up sent to xi and idoc.
where do I check data received.
Im using creamas.creamas03 idoc.
What is ALE configuration for IDOC and how to do it?
thanks in advance.

Hi,
>my question when flat file is picked up sent to xi and idoc.where do I check data received.
1)RWB- CC montoring..Select the Sender adapter whether the message is sent to XI Sucessfully
2) Check in Sxmb_moni
3)Tcode-We02 look for the IDOC Posted
4)SM59 RFC Destination Test in XI & R3
5) Check the Port in XI - idx1 R3- we21

Testing File to Idoc scenario

Hi,
I have created a scenario, file to IDOC..and Idoc i am using is CREMAS 04.
in SXMB_moni, message status shows Scheduled
And when I go to R/3 system tried we05, and Idx5 transactions and I didn't find the IDOC.
Can anybody tell me how to trace this issue?
Thanks
Balaji

Hi,
Have you done ALE config steps for inbound interface to SAP?
If not, then do it first.
They are:
1)Creating Logical systems(BASIS team creates it)
2)Assigning Clients to Logical systems(BASIS team creates it)
3)Create RFC destinations
4)Maintain distribution model for Idoc(Cremas)
5)Create partner profiles
<i>How to relate whether I have the required partner profile in R/3 system?</i>
Double click on the R/3 system, check if there is an entry for Inbound parameters
on the right hand side ,if so then see for the IDoc Cremas.
If you don't see an entry for IDOC CREMAS then create one as I mentioned above.

Runtime Error: How to Reprocess File-XI-IDoc scenario

Hi All,
I'm working a file adapter to XI to IDoc scenario. My XI message has about 2,000 records in it and one of those records contains an error (due to an invalid character in a description). My question is in a production environment would it be somehow possible for me to reprocess this erred message and post the remaining 1,999 records that do not have an invalid character? What are my options to progress?

Thanks Bhavesh,
Not sure what additional details you need but I'll give it a go. I've got an input file that contains lets say 100,000 rows of data and each row is a separate record. I use sender file adapter using file content conversion with fixed length definition. I send that through a simple mapping program that will generate 100,000 IDocs. I'll get 50 XI messages each containing 2,000 records (recordsets per message)
Because of an invalid character in the source file (an "escape" character) in SXMB_MONI I get a red flag. The error message is essentially "com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: Invalid char #0x1b".
Since the XI message errors none of the IDocs for the 2,000 records in that message gets created even though 1,999 of them are OK.
So my question is basically is there a way for me to restart this message via SXMB_MONI (or another way) so the other 1,999 records will process OK leaving me with the error to deal with later?
Thanks again!

File to idoc scenario in pi 7.1

Hi All,
I am testing file to Idoc scenario.
I have few queries. I am using PI 7.1
1) in Message mapping - I import the receiver idoc metadata. and doing mapping.
So there are couple of mandatory fields over there. Please let me know how to treat them. Do I need to diable them or put some value. for exp Direct, Segment. SNDPRN RECPRN all these madatory fields are there. Please advice.
2) When I am creating communication component for sender side(File system) then should I assign the logical port and if then what name it can be . Is there any other place we need to maintain this entry. I remember in PI 7.0 I dont need to assign the local name. But here i see I need to do. if I am not putting the name over there then it throw error message "Unable to convert the sender service <Business Compoenetname> to an ALE logical system.
Please advice how to overcome
3) now any how I am able to process the idoc from PI and its coming to ECC system. but it showing failed over there and giving me error message.
"EDI: Partner profile inbound not available"
I checked all the relevent partner prfile configuration is already there"
I have already used all the forums , I did these scenario in past in PI 7.0 and never faced much issue . but doing first in PI 7.1 after a long time, so I might be possible, I am missing some thing. Please advice and help. thank
Ram

Hi Ram,
There is nothing new in PI7.1 which can cause these errors.. it is because the interface is configured wrongly
>>1) in Message mapping - I import the receiver idoc metadata. and doing mapping.So there are couple of mandatory fields over there. Please let me know how to treat them. Do I need to diable them or put some value. for exp Direct, Segment. SNDPRN RECPRN all these madatory fields are there. Please advice.
If you know the value the you can create the control record during mapping and the fields which you don;t required you can map it co constant. It is using this control record the partner profile entries are found and if there is a mismatch then the idoc will fail with the error which you mentioned in point 3
>>2) When I am creating communication component for sender side(File system) then should I assign the logical port and if then what name it can be . Is there any other place we need to maintain this entry. I remember in PI 7.0 I dont need to assign the local name. But here i see I need to do. if I am not putting the name over there then it throw error message "Unable to convert the sender service <Business Compoenetname> to an ALE logical system.
No in 7.1 also we dont have to do anything like that. There is a blog on this error from Michael, please go through it and understand why and how this error occurs. May be in PI7.0 you were lucky enough for not getting this error
>>3) now any how I am able to process the idoc from PI and its coming to ECC system. but it showing failed over there and giving me error message. "EDI: Partner profile inbound not available"I checked all the relevent partner prfile configuration is already there"
Check the control record of the generated idoc and see whether you have a partner profile entry for the parameters mentioned in it. If not then you need to correct them in PI

PI7.1 File to Idoc scenario issue.

Hi,
We recently had an upgrade from PI7 to PI7.1.
When testing File to Idoc scenario ,we had an issue as below
Trace level="1" type="T">*** START APPLICATION TRACE ***</Trace>
<Trace level="1" type="T">Error during lookup - com.sap.aii.mapping.lookup.LookupException: Error when calling an adapter by using the communication channel GeneratedReceiverChannel_RFC (Party: , Service: ED2_200, Object ID: a8f14398a9993dccadbe983d401f693a) The channel with object ID a8f14398a9993dccadbe983d401f693a could not be found in the Integration Server Java Cache.

<Trace level="1" type="T">Error when parsing RFC Response - null</Trace>
<Trace level="1" type="T">*** END APPLICATION TRACE ***</Trace>
This was working fine before upggrade.
Any changes required to be done in scenario?
Pls let me know.
Thanks,

do a CPA cache refresh
http://hostname:port/CPACache/refresh?mode=full
also check if the object is visible in tcode SXI_CACHE..
also refresh the SXI_CACHE

How to handle the control records in case of file to idoc scenario.

Hi All,
can you please clarify me how to handle the control records in case of file to idoc scenario.

Hi,
In File to Idoc scenario even though you selected apply control record values from payload and you are not getting those correct values which you have provided in the mapping.
Also check the checkboxes Take sender from payload and Take receiver from payload along with the Apply control record values from payload checkbox

How can I include the Header Information....for a File to IDOC Scenario

Hi,
I made a File to IDOC Scenario with DEBMDM06 for MDM>XI>SAP R/3. The Header Information in the XML File which is at the XI end is Missing. For that reason In Tcode SXMB_MONI we are getting an Error that <b>"HEADER Information Missing: Message should Start with EDI_DC40"</b> i.e the Header Information.
My Question is that whether we can do some changes in the Message mapping Step in the Integration Repository. I HardCoded the Few mandatory Fields that were there but it Again gave me the Same Error as above.
Can you please Suggest some Solution for this. Since the data is Coming in from MDM part the Header information is not there but It actually Important as it has got all the Port Information.
Kindly Inform me some Solutions.
Thanks & Regards
Somnath

Hi Suraj,
Thanks for ur Reply, but Since we are Doing a File to IDOC Scenario the IDOC DEBMDM is on the Right Side in Message Mapping and as U know it is Mandatory to Map an IDOC on the Right Part. EDI_DC40 is coming as it is there in the IDOC but our XML File Does not have that. If we Don't Map then it Becomes RED, which is an Error.
Furthermore in the Receiver Agreement we have put the Necessary Details such as Sender Service and Receiver Service along with the IDOC Communication Channels.
Can U give as a Better Insight on this Note how to check the Header Part as it is mandatory to MAP.We also tried to HARDCODE it by putting those Values and Mapping them to a Constant but it is Giving the Same Error.
Thanks and Regards

Idocs with errors added status-56 in file to idoc scenario- how to rectify

hi ,
in file to idoc scenario when i m sending the file from ftp server to IS Retail, file is successfully getting processed but the idoc is showing error ,when we see using WE05 tcode or BD87 , pl sugggest how to rectify it to make the status 53

Hi,
Have you configured the partner profile details? check these steps..
1. In the receiver system you must configure the partner profile for your sender system in WE20.
2. Add the IDoc message type to inbound parameters of the partner profile and configure the appropriate process code.
2. Fill the Logical system name for your senderservice-->Adapter Specific identifiers in ID.

How to start an File- XI- IDOC -Scenario manually?

Hi,
we have a File->XI->IDOC -Scenario with a polling time of 60 minutes.
Now it should be possible, that the enduser can start this scenario manually (by report or something else), because sometimes the user has to edit the file and then he/she cannot wait till the loop restarts.
How can we manage it?
Regards
Wolfgang

Hi,
Wow - that's great!
BUT.... it's working only in XI/2004 >=SPS17. We have PI 700/2004s SPS7
Do you know the corresponding SPS for this feature in PI 700?
I wanna ask my admin to upgrade - it's a feature the enduser (special endusers) really needs.
Thanks a lot!

How to catch Posting error in File to IDoc Scenario?

I have successfully completed File to IDoc Scenario. Now I am interested in catching posting error. i.e., if mapping goes well and when IDoc is being sent to Recipient system then if any posting error is encountered, then a mail should go to a recipient.
Can anybody suggest the solution.

Steps required in File to Idoc Scenario

Hey guys i m doin a file to Idoc scenario and just wanna make sure my steps r correct.
steps done on the XI server
1.Create RFC destination(test the destination by giving the target host as the R/3 server).
2.Create port for the RFC destination.
steps on the R/3 side
1.Create/verify logical system name.
and finally create business system for this logical system in SLD.
now do i need to do partner profile as well or not? and if i have to do it how is it accomplished.
thanx
ahmad

Hi,
The following are needed for idoc to file scenario...
In R3...
RFC dest to XI (sm59)
Logical system (bd54)
Port to XI (we21)
Partner profile for the logical system (we20)
In XI...
RFC dest to R3 (sm59)

Problem in executing File to IDoc Scenario in XI

Hello,
I am Working in HR Payroll module and new to XI.We are implementing File to IDoc Scenario in XI.When I place the flat file in the application server the file is read but the contents of the flat file is not getting posted to the IDoc.The constant values defined for IDoc in Mapping program is getting posted .I am not able to trace the error.
kindly help me out in resolving this problem.IF there is any way of debugging the entire process please let me know.
Thanks & Regards,
Malathi V.

hi,
check this blog to test your mapping,
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/09/16/xi-how-to-test-your-mapping-in-real-life-scenarios
Next, check your INBOUND MESSAGE in SXMB_MONI and check if the content conversion has been perfromed as expected.
these steps will help you reason out the cause of your problem.

Not sure if IDoc was created or received in file to idoc scenario

Hi,
I configured a file to idoc scenario in my test client for idoc MATMAS.MATMAS02 , now after going thru all the phases of design and configuration and creating partner profile using we20 , when I m executing the scenario , I am not sure wht happened to the idoc becz i can't see in the R/3 system using we05/02 or BD87 in the XI system .
Pl help how to rectify the error and find out where the error has actually occured.
ans will be rewrded

mojib

Hi Mojib,
first check in SXMB_MONI whether you have a success chequered flag for the file messge.................if there is error here, then rectify your this error and re-run your scenario................if you cannnot see your file msg in SXMB_MONI, then go to RWB and in comm channel monitoring, see the error in sender file comm channel status and rectify the error in sender file comm channel in ID and save and activate it and then re-run your scenario............
then execute SM58 to see in there is anything in tRFC.........if there is not anything here, then it means your IDOC has reached R/3.................
then in R/3, execute WE05 for the relevant period, then you will see your IDOC there with some status..........

XI unable to post IDOC to ECC the interface is FILE-to-IDOC scenario

Hi All,
The XI interface is a FILE-2-IDOC scenario and some times IDOC's in the receiver system are not posted. I did see successfully message for that particular messages but the IDOC's were not created in the ECC. If the messages is reprocessed then IDOC's are posted successfully to the ECC system. The message has checkered flag in the SXMB_MONI tcode.
This issue is occurring intermittently so could some point me in the right direction how to trouble shoot the issue.
Thanks,
Sarvesh

Hi,
Interesting problem...since its intermittant..
You cannot use any of the traditional RWB or message monitoring or cc chanel monitoring here as the error is in the ecc system, so from an XI standpoint it has left XI succssfully..that explains all the chequered flags..indicating success.
we19, we12, we14(process all idocs) test out the whole process with a load..use transaction we46..this can tell you why it is failing....in r/3
from the ecc system to check inbound queue monitoring.
from there you can select the IDocs or queues which you want to monitor, using the specified selection parameters available.
Look at the status record for the idoc that should give you more information, processing status of the idoc...that should tell you the status code assigned to it..
There is one other option here....if you can figure out what sequence they need to be posted in...that might be the reason for the failure..you can specify the sequence to post the idocs in, use qRfc ..
Hope that helps
Regards
Ravi Raman

File To IDOC Scenario issue

Hello Friends,
I am facing an issue during File To IDOC Scenario.
Sender side: Text file
It contains data:
name,surname,7894561230 i.e. phone no.
My sendor data type is also desined in same way.
I am facing given below wrror in SXMB_MONI.

In sendor file adaptor I am using 'File' as message protocol.
Should I have to use 'File content Conversion'.
I tested message mapping. It is working fine.
Kindly suggest me for above error. How I can resolve it?

can you tell in what format is your source structure? I mean is it an XML or a CSV file?
If it is a CSV file then you need FCC....but then in this case the error should have been thrown by the channel itself and the message wont have come till mapping step....
If your source file is really in csv format then apply FCC....many blogs, references are readily available on SDN.
