IDOC - XI(BPM) - IDOC

Hi,
Does anybody has a documentation regarding how to set up an IDOC - XI - IDOC scenario using a BPM. Coz' currently I have an error from BPM - IDOC as the error "Unable to convert the sender service SC_PO_idoc2idoc to an ALE logical system". SC_PO_idoc2idoc is my BPM.
Thanks
Zubair

I've done all the necessary however still giving me the same problem, one thing I realize our XI box is currently running on SP10 this could be the problem so we've decide to upgrade it to SP11.
1. we have sp10 and the problem doesn't exist
Integration Directory and just happened that same Logical system has been used by another system then it would raised an error to my BPM saying "Check Result for Object SC_PO_idoc2idoc Logical system M01CLNT200 already exists in service | BS_JOBSKL_200" when I'm trying to SAVE the changes to my BPM.
2. but if you have 2 different systems why are you using the same name? they must be different as they represent 2 different systems
Is this a bugs in SP10 as well, do you face any problem like this before. Because if this is an issue then it will be a disaster if we have many interface coming into XI and need to be send to one same BS which the logical system is unique.
3. Like you wrote "logical system is unique" so you can't have two business systems with the same logical system name
This means that "to be send to one same BS which the logical system is unique" can be easily achived - don't worry.

Processing large volume of idocs using BPM Processing

Hi,
I have a scenario in which SAP R/3 sends large volume say 30,000 DEBMAS Idocs to XI. XI then sends data to 3 legacy systems using jdbc adapter.
I created a BPM Process which waits for 4 hrs to collect all the idocs. This is what my BPM does:
1. Wait for 4 hrs Collect the idocs
2. For every idoc do a IDOC->JDBC Message transformation.
3. Append to a Big List
4. Loop at the Big list from step 4 and in the loop for
5. Start counter from 0 and increment. Append to a Small List.
6. if counter reaches 100 then send a Batch JDBC Message in send step.
7. Reset counter after every send.
8. Process remaining list i.e if there was an odd count of say 5300 idoc then the remaining 53 idocs will be sent in anther block.
After sending 5000 idocs to above BPM following problems are there:
1. I cannot read the workflow log as system does not respond.
2. In the For Each loop which loops through the big list of say 5000 idocs only first pass of 100 was processed after that the workflow item is not moving ahead. It remains in the status as "STARTED" but I do not see further processing.
Please tell me why certain Work Items are stuck is it becuase I have reached upper limit and is this the right approach? The Main BPM Process is also hanging from last 2 days.
I have concerns about using BPM for processing such high volume of idocs in production. Please advice and thanks in advance.

Ashish

Hi Ashish,
Please read SAPs Checklist for proper usage of BPMs: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/d92e428819da2ce10000000a1550b0/content.htm
One point i'm wondering about is why do you send the IDocs out of R/3 one by one and don't use packaging there? From a performance stand point this is much better than a bpm.
The SAP Checklist states the following:
"No Replacement for Mass Interfaces
Check whether it would not be better to execute particular processing steps, for example, collecting messages, on the sender or receiver system.
If you only want to collect the messages from one business system to forward them together to a second business system, you should do so by using a mass interface and not an integration process.
If you want to split a message up into lots of individual messages, also use a mass interface instead of an integration process. A mass interface requires only a fraction of the back-end system and Integration-Server resources that an integration process would require to carry out the same task. "
Also you might want to have a look at the IDoc packaging capabilities within XI (available since SP14 i believe): http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7a/00143f011f4b2ee10000000a114084/content.htm
And here is Sravyas good blog about this topic: /people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/12/09/xiidoc-message-packages
If for whatever reason you can't or don't want to use the IDoc packets from R/3 or XI there are other points on which you can focus for optimizing your process:
In the section "Using the Integration Server Efficiently" there is an overview on which steps are costly and which steps are not so costly in their resource consumption. Mappings are one of the steps that tend to consume a lot of resources and unless it is a multi mapping that can not be executed outside a BPM there is always the option to do the mapping in the interface determination either before or after the BPM. So i would sugges if your step 2 is not a multi mapping you should try to execute it before entering the BPM and just handle the JDBC Messages in the BPM.
Wait steps are also costly steps, so reducing the time in your wait step could potentially lead to better performance. Or if possible you could omitt the wait step and just create a process that waits for 100 messages and then processes them.

File to Idocs using BPM

Hi,
Current Interface Flow - File (xml) to Idoc (single Idoc type)
Thirdparty sends a File for Goods Receipt. This file may have multiple orders.
Orders are sorted in an xslt by ORDNUM. Each record has a delivery type (Deliver Type PO or Delivery Type STO). For each order Graphical Message mapping occurs.
In case of PO, inbound delivery number and item number have to be received from ECC via an RFC call and passed to VBELN and POSNR. While in case of STO, source field ORDNUM and ORDITEM are passed to VBELN and POSNR. (RFC call happens only for POs, not for STOs)
In case of STO, TCode will be MB0A.and IDoc would be WMMBXY (As is the case right now)
In case of PO, there may be two cases -
a) There is at least one response from ECC for all the line items inside an order --> in this case TCode will be MB0A and IDoc is WMMBXY .
b) If there is no inbound delivery number for any line item from ECC inside an order --> TCode MB01 will be used and IDoc used is WMMBXY
So for all the above cases Target IDoc is WMMBXY.
Changes to be done - Now File (xml) to Idoc (Two different Idoc types, WMMBXY and DELIVERY03)
Now there is an additional requirement that I will be using an additional IDoc (DELIVERY03) in above case a).
I want to use BPM in this case
1) RFC call in message mapping to get the inbound delivery number (for POs only) (Should be before the message enters BPM)
2) Separating the messages based on IDoc type
3) Interface / Message mapping for each IDoc type
4)Send the message to ECC
Please suggest how to proceed with BPM
Thanks,
Varun

Error receiving IDOC in BPM

hi all
I'm doing a BPM scenario in which i want to receive an IDOC.
The scenario goes like this:
an IDOC is sent from source(from SWCV1) and an interface mapping(done in SWCV2) is done before the IDOC is received in the BPM.I have made an abstract async interface(done is SWCV2) for the IDOC which receives the IDOC in BPM.
The source is sending the IDOC successfully and the Interface mapping also happens properly.
My problem is that the IDOC is not entering the BPM.'Permanent error in BPE inbound processing' is shown.
Simulate message delivery shows:Result of simulation: Message starts a new process
I have no clue what the error is.Please help.

Hi,
You can go to the message in SXMB_MONI and from there go to engine column of the displayed message. In case of BPM, you will have PE there instead of IE or AE. Now click on PE and it will take you to the actual BPM. There you can drill down and try to figure out if the BPM instance has started correctly or what exactly the error is.
Thanks and Regards,
Sarath.

Multiple files to idoc without bpm

Hi
I have gone through the previous threads and came to know that n:1 is not possible without bpm. But in case of idocs you can collect them in r/3 system itself using RSEOUT00 program. But if my scenario is like.......you have 10 files which are coming through ftp and we have to send the idoc to the target system. Is there any way to do this scenario without bpm ??
Thanks

IDoc to BPM

Hi evrybody!
I am tyring to configure an IDoc -> BPM -> IDoc scenario. So far, I haven't had any success.
I have a simple JAVA program that generates IDocs and sends them to an SAP system. Now I have changed its configuration so that it now sends the IDocs to an XI system.
I have configured the following objects:
(1) Business Service:
____My JAVA program (adapter specific logical system is set)
____IDoc structure as outbound interface
(2) Receiver Determination:
____Sender Service as in (1)
____Interface as in (1)
____Receiver: My BPM
____Receiver agreement: n/a
(3) Interface Determination:
____Inbound interface: Abstract interface of BMP
____Interface Mapping: Working interface mapping
(4) No receiver agreement
Everytime I send an IDoc using my JAVA tool, I get the error "RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE: No service for system (1), client 100 in Integration Directory".
I don't understand this error, since I have configured a receiver determination...
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Joerg

Hi,
Unfortunately, posting XI xonfiguration in HTML is a real pain... but I'll try.
My JAVA program is setting the IDoc header fields like so:
doc.setMessageType("ZXXX");
doc.setRecipientPort("SAPXYZ");
doc.setRecipientPartnerType("LS");
doc.setRecipientPartnerNumber("XYZCLNT010");
doc.setClient("100");
doc.setSenderPort("SENDER_SYS");
doc.setSenderPartnerType("LS");
doc.setSenderPartnerNumber("n/a");
The pipeline is configured like this:
SENDER RECEIVER MAPPING REC. AGGRMT.
<SENDER_SYS> <BPM>
<IDOC ITF.> <abs. itf.> <map> n. req.
<BPM> <XYZCLNT010>
<abs. itf.> <IDOC ITF.> <map> <IDOC>
The second part is concerned with sending an IDoc from the BPM, however I think the error is occuring in the first part - the BPM is not found as the receiver of the IDoc. That is how I interpret the error message...
Any ideas?
Regards, Joerg

IDOC to BPM to File

Hi Gurus,
I have a scenario where by i will need to collect idocs from an R3 system, perform a transformation and output the results into a flat file.
I looked at various blogs but am still pretty confused.
For my scenario, do i need to configure a receiver determination to pass the idocs into BPM?
( If the answer is no, how does the idoc get pass into the BPM? )
or do i just need 1 receiver determination to output my result from the BPM into a flat file?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
At the moment i have 2 receiver determination
1. from R3 Outbound async to abstract async of BPM
2. from BPM abstract async to inbound async
1 receiver agreement
BPM to a service with a file adapter
I've also configured another simple scenario without BPM, just sending a IDOC from R/3 to XI with a simple transformation and exporting the output into a flat file. Its working fine and im able to see the XML messages in SXMB_MONI.
However, for the BPM, when i try to click on the process view via SXMB_MONI, it says no message found. I'm suspecting that somehow the idoc is not even passed to the BPM but i am unable to see where have i gone wrong.
Any help will be much appreciated.
THanks in advance.

Posting multiple idocs without BPM

Hi all,
We have a JDBC->XI->Idoc scenario.
We would like to post "n" idocs to SAP for the "n" records fetched from database.
Due to performance issues we are not using BPM.
Is there any other way to post multiple idocs without using BPM.
rgds
Prashant

HI,
As suggested by others, it is possible without BPM.
For this, you need to alter the Idoc Schema i.e change the occurence of the idoc in the idoc schema. Then import this xsd as a External Definition into Repository..then mapping etc ..

Here i am trying to collect IDOCs for 5 minutes and i need to send them in XML format. Here i have mapping logic and that logic is working perfectly.
What i am dong is
1. I am sending IDOCs from R3 system to BPM in XI. ( Here to push IDOCs from R3 system to BPM, do we need to do extra ALE settings. Actually With out BPM simple IDOC to File is working fine, With BPM only i am having error. )
2. How to reslove above problem. AS per my understanding everthing is fine.
Thanks,
Subbu

Hi Rama Subbarao,
Error: Check with your loop condition and process steps.
Collecting of IDOCS using BPM is good, If u want to send the 100 IDOCS per one hour with single BPM it will takes times , Some performs issues and hardware issues are raising.
Suppose if u send 1000 Idocs per one hour it will takes much time.
Other Process:
The collecting of IDOCS it will be downloaded into FILE System.Once IDOCS is downloaded into FILE, it will be not changed the IDOCS.
Using FILE Adapter we send the flatfiles data from FILE System to XI. if u using this process performance wise its very good.

IDoc Collection Scenario (IDoc to Mail Interface)

Hi,
I am configuring IDoc to Mail Scenario using BPM.
I gone through following link for develop the scenario. I am still unable to complete the scenario.
Collect Idoc
/people/pooja.pandey/blog/2005/07/27/idocs-multiple-types-collection-in-bpm
I have done following steps in my configuration. Please correct my steps if i am wrong.
Source is Outbound Invoice IDoc (SAP System).
Target is Inbound EDI 810 format send as a email(Mail System).
1. Create an Abstract Interface for Invoice IDoc(MI_IDoc_ABS)
2. Create a Message Interface for EDI 810 for Inbound(MI_EDI810_IN)
3. Create an Abstract Interface for EDI 810(MI_EDI810_ABS)
4. Message Mapping between Outbound IDoc and Abstract Invoice IDoc. I did this as per one of the above link. but did not understand the importance of this. On Message tab of Message Mapping, it shows the occurance as 1 for both source and target. I did not see the mention of this mapping in the BPM. Not sure if this was required?(MM_IDoc_ABS)
5. Message mapping between Abstract Invoice IDoc to Abstract EDI 810. On the message tab of message mapping, occurance of Source message is changed to 0-unbounded and occurance of target is kept as 1.(MM_EDI810_ABS)
6. Define Interface Mapping for above mappings
a) IM_IDoc_ABS - Outbound Invoice IDoc + MI_IDoc_ABS
MM_IDoc_ABS
b) IM_EDI810_ABS - MI_IDoc_ABS + MI_EDI810_ABS
MM_EDI810_ABS
7. Create a BPM in Integration process. Define 3 Containers namely
a) collectIDoc - Abstract Interface - MI_IDoc_ABS
b) collectIDocList - Abstract Interface - MI_IDoc_ABS(Multiline)
c) targetFile - Abstract Interface - MI_EDI810_ABS
8. Create a Block and define a infinite while loop with Block. Condition to be defined as (1=1)
9. Define a deadline block withing Block with duration = 5minutes
10. Define a Correlation in Correlation editor as SNDPOR as a ID.
11. Define a recieve step inside infinite while loop with following properties
Message = collectIDoc
Start Process = Checked
Use Correlation = Correlation
Activate Correlation = Correlation
Correlation
SNDPOR = collectIDoc./INVOIC02/IDOC/EDI_DC40/SNDPOR
12. Define Container operation next to recieve step. properties are
Target = collectIDocList
Operation = Append
expression = collectIDoc
13. Outside the block, there is Transformation Step with following properties
Interface Mapping = IM_EDI810_ABS
Source message = collectIDocList
Target message = targetFile
Acknowledgement = None
Reciever From = Send Context
Now the next step is to define Communication Channel and Receiver determination, Interface determination in the Integration Directory.
I don't know, how to go further on these steps.
In addition, could you please validate my above steps.
I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Gowri

Hi Bhavesh,
Thanks for the directions and help. I appreciate your help. I understand the steps but i am unable to implement it.
I have few more questions on above answer.
a) Do i have to create Sender Agreement?
b) Do i have to import bmp process in Integration Process in Integration Directory?
The steps that i carried out in Integration Directory.
1. Create a Scenario EDI810_Scenario
2. Create a party called EDI810_Party and EDI810_Service.
3. In EDI810_Service, Receiver tab has interfaces defined. MI_EDI_IN and MI_IDoc_ABS. In sender tab, it is INVOIC.INVOICE02 (IDoc) and MI_EDI810_ABS.
4. Define a receiver communication channel CC_EDI810_Receiver(RFC).
5. Business System for SAP is defined in Service without Party.
6. Defined Sender communication channel CC_IDoc_Sender(IDoc)
7. Create Interface Determination (First)
Properties are
Sender Service : SAP Business System
Sender Interface : INVOIC.INVOICE02 (IDoc)
Sender Namespace : IDoc namespace
Receiver Party : EDI810_Party
Receiver Service : EDI810_Service
Configured Inbound Interface is
MI_IDoc_ABS and IM_IDoc_ABS
8. Create Interface Determination Determination (Second)
Properties are
Sender Service : BPM_IP (Bpm process is imported in Integratio directory)
Sender Interface : MI_EDI810_ABS
Receiver Party : EDI810_Party
Receiver Service : EDI810_Service
Configured Inbound Interface is
MI_EDI_IN. I do not see IM_EDI_ABS in the list. How do i get that.
What step did i miss?
Thanks,
Gowri

Idoc Acknowledgements and Idoc Packaging

All,
I am implementing a requirement wherein we need to post 2 different types of Idoc's from our BPM. The Business requirements is such that until the Idoc 1 is not processed by the R3 system, the Idoc 2 should not be posted from XI as there is dependency in the data.
This can be addressed using Application Acknowledgements. The solution to this is to use the send step in my BPM with application acknowlegement. Until the application acknowledgement is not received for the first send step , the next send step will not be processed and so things will / should work fine.
The problem comes in the fact that the Idoc's being sent out of XI use Idoc Packaging, ie., the First Send Step uses Idoc Packaging to post multiple Idoc's to the target system. A question that arises due to Idoc packaging and Idoc ack's are,
How will the Idoc Ack's be sent back to XI?
I have read through the online help and it states that every ALE AUDIT Idoc can contain the status of maximum 500 Idoc's. Now, in my case , when using my Idoc packaging, if the number of Idoc's are greater than 500, how will the Application Acknowledgement for the Idoc's work? Will I still get a single acknowlegement in my BPM or will I get multiple acknowledgements? Will Send Step with Application acknowledgement still hold good?
Any ideas, thoughts / experiences on using idoc ack's with idoc packaging?
Regards
Bhavesh

If I undestatood correcty you have 2 send step, the first send a message containing multiple IDoc (IDoc Packaging). In this first send step you set the application Acknowledgements.
I think that this is not managed from the BPM, bacause the acknowledgements will come someone positive and someone negative, and so when the first send step will be completed ?
I think that the solution must to be changed a little bit, or removing the IDoc Packaging, or removing the wait of Acknowledgements.
Also take in mind that if you use a BPM with many possible correlation (Acknowledgements) you will have bed performances.

Sandro

Two idocs with same idoc number in idx5

We are using an idoc to file scenario where idocs are bundled using bpm and posted to ftp. here the issue is we are getting two idocs with same idoc number in idx5. due to which the file in ftp is getting overwritten.
Could anyone suggest me what to do in this regard.

Hi,
>>>check your sender system is sending same IDoc twice ?
if you send the same IDOC twice they both get different numbers as IDOC number is taken from the IDOC num range
unless you're able to send the same IDOC twice with the same IDOC num somehow
