FEH for File Interfaces?

Hello Experts,
Can we use Forward Error Handling (FEH) for implementing error handling in File Interfaces ?
Like for simple Application Server file interfaces, if something goes wrong during the process of writing/reading a file on App Server, can we use FEH for showing the log?
I know it is a concept used for PI...so we want to know if it can be used for file interfaces as well? Just want to keep similar approach for error handling and logging (for both PI and File Interfaces).
Thanks.

Edit 1 May 2015: Added inbound
Just a slight correction.
FEH is used in the ABAP backend systems and are only for asynchronous inbound proxy interfaces. It is not available for sync proxies, IDocs, BAPIs. Neither is it available for any error handling on the PI system itself.

Inbound for pickconfirm interface

i have developed outbound for pick release.
Now manually from backened i have to pick confirm.
which interface tables i have to use to effect 2 modules(INV,ONT).
the status of lines should change to picked,or backorderd.
Thank You.

Hi,
Inbound is nothing but data coming from legacy system or other sap/non sap system into the sap system. whereas outbound is the data going from the sap system.
if the data is coming in to the SAP System that is called as an inbound interface and if the data is going out from SAP system it is called an outbound interface .
Ex:
if you are uploading data from an excel file to SAP System it is an Example for Inbound interface and all the report programs which read the data from the database are examples of outbound interface.

Inbound interface found more than once for outbound interface

Hello everybody,
i have a simple problem.
I build a interface with XI3.0
File to idoc
for each file i need crate 2 idoc.
It's not a problem when Idoc type is different, but in my case i need crate 2 idoc of same type but with a different mapping.
so when i upload the file i have this error:
Inbound interface found more than once for outbound interface
how can i solve this problem? can i force this step?
i thought to create a different idoc type or create the 2 idoc in same mapping , but there is not my favourite solution because in case of error , both idoc will be not created.
any suggestion?
thanks in advance
alex

Hi,
Instead of exporting and changing the occurrence as suggested by Ravi,
use the same Idoc twice in mapping as well as Interface mapping.
Coming to ID part, do every thing as usual.
The only thing to note is instead of using normal Interface determination, use extended Interface Determination.
This will solve your problem. The error will not come again. I'm sure.
Try out and update the thread.

Dynamic update to Inbound Directory for File Adapter Read

I've seen references to others asking similar questions but never a good answer.
I have a process that outputs files into daily dated directories. In other words, my Inbound Direct name is dynamic. I would like BPEL to be able to pick up these files but the Directory Spec for the inbound file adapter seems to be set at design time (or in the case of a Logical Directory Deployment time).
The directory names are in YYYMMDD format. So it would be:
importdir/YYYMMDD
for each day.
Is there a way I can monitor an entire subtree, or have some event that triggers the directory name to be updated (for instance, a process watches the parent directory and kicks off when a new directory is created), or any other method I can inform the FileAdapter to begin polling a different directory.
Thanks.

Hi Marcel,
one question: Did you receive a device ID (you can see that on the settings page).
If not, run transaction MEREP_PD on the WebAS. (Yes, just run this transaction and you do not need to do anything else). It is necessary to run this step because it will initialise the number range for the Mobile ID for the mobile client to use. For further explanation, check OSS Note 592284.
Hope this helps, alex

Inbound File Interface

Hello,
I have a scenario where there is an inbound file interface coming into SAP. There is no middleware . The source will be sitting in the FTP server from where it will come into SAP. The data we are talking is data which is encrypted due to the confidentiality of the data. My question is a) where does the data get decrypted ? , secondly , how secure is this decryption environment , thirdly , how is the data decrypted , do we have standard SAP FMs available to do the same
Thanks

Unit test plan for inbound and outbound interfaces

I am trying to create a UNIT TEST PLAN for an interface. In this interface a flat file in IDOC format is picked up from the application server and processed using EDI_DATA_INCOMING for the relevant posting ( example : Sales order creation from a PO IDOC). IF the file is not in IDOC format then it is reformatted to the IDOC format manually.
In second scenario(outbound), after sales order creation or billing document creation, IDOC is created which is read and a custom flat file is created and sent to a middleware.
PLease suggest a unit test plan for these kind of scenarios or send a sample UTP if possible.

PS: points will be awarded to helpful answers.

Unfortunately this isn't possible, the esa has only one routing table. You'll have to add specific routes for your internal networks.
I usually avoid two-armed setups because of this and it gets even worse if you want to use virtual gateways (traffic gets sent via the internal interface with an IP from the external interface)

Creation of Server Proxy for Message interface with External Defination

Dear All,
I am getting a problem while generating a server proxy for the inbound interface . The request message used in the inbound interface is a external definition which is uploaded using a XSD file. The XSD file was supplied by a third party which is having very high complex strucuture and used lot of abstract data types in the design. When i tried to generate the proxy in the R/3 system (Transaction SPROXY) for the inbound interface i am getting following error.
Interface uses external and internal message definitions
Message no. SPRX122 *
Diagnosis
In a message interface you can use messages from different sources:
Message types and fault message types edited in the Enterprise Services Repository
Messages imported into the Enterprise Services Repository (external definitions, RFC, IDoc)
In the current message interface, message types from different sources have been used. Since messages from these different sources must be handled differently during proxy generation, such a mixture of messages within a message interface is not possible.
System Response
The interface cannot be generated.
Procedure
Change the interface definition accordingly in the Enterprise Services Repository.
Please guide me, how to generate the proxy for the interface with external defination message. I could nt geneate manullay, because it is having very high complexity and its a big structure.
Is there is any way to generate the proxy for interface with external definition
Regards
Vijayanand

Hi,
i. Import your message schemas from external definitions, or RFCs or IDocs from SAP systems. These definitions already contain data types.
ii. Create a message interface and reference the messages of the external definition, or the RFC or IDoc message.

FTPS or SFTP for file scenario. Suggstions

Hi,
I have searched blog in sdn but do not get good blogs/links.
For File scenario which to use FTPS or SFTP.
How to do the configuration in XI and Visual admin.
Full points will be awarded.

Hi,
1) SFTP (Secure File Transfer Protocol)
"SSH File Transfer Protocol" or SFTP is a network protocol that provides file transfer and manipulation functionality over any reliable data stream. It is typically used with the SSH-2 protocol to provide secure file transfer. SFTP encrypts the session, preventing the casual detection of username, password or anything that is being transmitted. One key benefit to SFTP is its ability to handle multiple secure file transfers over a single encrypted pipe. By using a single encrypted pipe, there are fewer holes in the corporate firewall.
SFTP:
As per the latest SAP PI/XI support pack, it does not support SFTP via File Adapter.
So alternative approach to cater this requirement from XI is to make use of Unix Script at OS level to transfer the files from/to third-party systems.
Inbound Interface - i.e. third-party system ->XI->SAP:
File is transferred to a folder in SAP XI landscape from the third-party legacy system using UNIX Script with secured protocol. Once the file is ready in the XI landscape, File Adapter will poll this directory and file is picked up by NFS protocol.
Outbound Interface i.e. SAP->XI->third-party system:
XI is responsible for writing a file into a folder in the XI landscape. These files are transferred to the third-party system by executing UNIX scripts with secured protocol i.e. via sFTP.
Pre-Requisites:
Public key should be exchanged between external systems and the PI system.
UNIX shell script has to be developed and scheduled.
Advantages:
Highly Secured.
Ability to handle multiple secure file transfers over a single encrypted pipe .By using a single encrypted pipe, there are fewer holes in the corporate firewall.
Disadvantages:
Two-Step process i.e. XI>Temporary folder>External System and vice-versa
Files have to be temporarily stored in XI server.
Multiple failure points i.e. XI and Unix script execution
Maintenance of an external UNIX script.
Difficulty in monitoring the execution of the shell script as it cannot be monitored thru XI.
Need to generate keys and install it in the SFTP site as a pre-requisite i.e. SFTP clients must install keys on the server.
SFTP uses keys rather than certificates. This means that it can't take advantage of the "chains of trust" paradigm facilitated through Certificate Authorities.
Files from the XI server should be deleted/archived in a periodic manner to increase the disc space so that it will increase the performance.
Note: UNIX shell Script can be executed as a background job or' can be triggered from SAP XI through OS command at File adapter level.

Multiple Operations for File to IDoc scenario

Hi all,
I have a file to IDoc scenario where two IdocXML files (one for INSERT and one for CHANGE of Business Object) have to be picked up by file adapter and transfered to SAP System. In respect to the multiple operations PI 7.1 can handle I would like to create one Service Interface for the Business Object and two operations (INSERT and CHANGE).
Unfortunately I am not able to use the operation in the sender agreement, so I can't specify the comm-channel for the operations, only for the interface.
So, can I use multiple operations in a file scenario (respectively in a non Web Service scenario)??
Thanks a bunch,
Manfred

The scenario is pretty easy. I just want two different files to be read by one Comm Channel with one Sender Agreement.
They are both transferred to the same receiver. I just wanted to test one scenario using multiple operations.
In your blog you described that you should not use two operations with the same set of messages (synchronous/asynchronous). In my case both are asynchronous but I already tried it with one being sync and the other one async. Where did you actually get this information, it puzzles me a little since SAP does the same in its preconfigured Enterprise Services as far as I know.
In the Trace for pipeline step Interface determination in SXMB_MONI it says:
<Trace level="1" type="T">...There is no Interface Determination configured for receiver party and receiver service BS_RECEIVER</Trace>
<Trace level="2" type="T">Check conditions for (Inb: Party Srvc If) BS_RECEIVER SI_..._Out</Trace>
<Trace level="2" type="T">...valid InbIf without Condition: SI_..._Out</Trace>
<Trace level="2" type="T">Number of receiving Interfaces:1</Trace>
So it finds the Outbound Interface in Receiver side which is wrong since I specified the Inbound Interface in the Interface determination. Did anyone of you already encounter such a behaviour? I already deleted and recreated all routing objects but without any success.
Thanks,
Manfred

SOAP To File Interface - How to trace?

1. How I can trace if the message entered my web service?
2. What do the error messages mean?
Please help.

Hi Bhavesh,
Thank you for your reply.
I've done the following changes:
1. Change the "Quality of Service" in "Communication Channel" to "exactly once".
2. Regenerate the WSDL.
3. Update the URL on the WSDL to:
http://ootspdbs02:8001/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:BS_NAUTICUS_OOTS:SOAP_Sender&version=3.0&QualityOfService=ExactlyOnce&Sender.Service=dummysvc&Interface=dummyNS%5EdummyInterface
4. Inserted a new logging configuration -
 Category: Runtime
 Parameters: LOGGING_SYNC
 Current_Value: 1
However, I still encounter the same error -
HTTP error: could not POST file
'/XISOAPAdapter/MessageServlet?channel=:BS_NAUTICUS_OOTS:SOAP_Sender&version=3.0&QualityOfService=ExactlyOnce&Sender.Service=dummysvc&Interface=dummyNS%5EdummyInterface' on server ootspdbs02 (0)
And
"The web service has sent an empty response!"
Please point out my mistake.
Thanks.
