Mapping of Control records in file to idoc scenario

Hi,
In the mapping part of file to idoc scenario is it necessary to provide the exact control record details
or will it pick what ever is mentioned ? Can any one please explain regarding the same?
Many Thanks,
Sharath

hi,
in case of apply control records from payload
It is indeed very simple to do it and the feature is available from SP10. I have seen lot of posts on the forum for the same and that is the reason for this blog. We can manipulate the control record in the mapping editor and map the EDI_DC40 segment of Idoc as required. Most of the times we need to map only SNDPRN, RCVPRN, SNDPRT, RCVPRT for posting Idocs with appropriate partner profiles in SAP R/3 destination systems. We can disable the rest of the fields as shown below. We need to manually change the control record of idoc for populating partner profiles in the control records while dealing with non-sap sender system, which will be used by receiver SAP system for posting idocs with appropriate ALE configurations.

Error values in Idoc Control Records in File to Idoc Scenarios

Hi All,
I am posting 2 different types of Idocs in 2 different File-to-Idoc Scenarios. In many cases both these files may get picked at the same time. One is an Orders Idoc and the other one is Shipment Idoc. The Orders Idoc has a control record value in the Sender Partner Fn as 'ZC' while as for Shipment Idoc that value is not passed. The other Sender parameters are passed and are different for both these idocs. But when the files are processed, the value 'ZC' get populated for the Shipment Idoc also. When 100 files are sent with 90 orders and 10 shipments, the shipments get created with 'ZC' partner fn. This is visible in the Call Adapter Pipeline Step under the node IDocOutbound. . I have 2 different Idoc receiver adapters.Can anybody help me out here?
Thanks,
Geetha

Hey,
>'ZC' while as for Shipment Idoc that value is not passed
Check whether the Source/ Mapping populates the 'ZC' , Did you checked Apply Control record in Receiver Adapter for Shipment, What is the name you have mentioned for the in the SLD -Logical system for Sender system

Control record in File to Idoc

hi guys,
i am new to XI and now learning File to Idoc scenario.
after going thru some forums and blogs i found that while mapping the control record EDI_DC40 in the idoc should be disabled.
my question is will this control record be disabled forever or should the proper data be filled at the runtime.
help me in understanding this concept plz.
Points will be awarded
Regards
BHASKER

Hi Bhasker,
The control record acts as router. This control record has information like which is message type, Idoc type, sender port etc. [http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/13/95244269625633e10000000a155106/content.htm ]
The control records need to filled since data in the Idoc has to be filled accurately. But again it is not necessary, XI has option to fill the control records by itself at runtime using receiver determination
This blog will help you understand more

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

File to idoc scenario with controls

I am working on file to idic scenario.
file has four types of lines :
Begin of file.
header.
items.
end of file.
each line has a element Record type and some other elements.for header record type is A , for item its B , for Begin of file its C and for end of file its D.
we have to check for every line that it should have record type as one of these four and if not so we have to send a mail through alert functionality.we have to send a mail which has all errors by checking the whole file for record types.we have to ignore these lines in the file and proceed with the rest.
how can we implement this?

Posting multiple records from file to idoc

Hi Exerts,
i have done scenario to post one record from file to IDOC, to post multiple records from file to idoc what are the options to be modified in the scenario.
thanks,
dhanush

Hi Dhanush,
You need to change the occurance of idoc to 0 to unbounded ie need to opt idoc packaging.
Just download the xsd of you idoc to the desktop and change the occurance tag as "<xsd:element name="IDOC" type="COND_A.COND_A02" maxOccurs="unbounded" />" and then reimport it into External definition and use it in your message mapping and then map it with you source structure.

File to IDOC scenario : Error with mapping due to Context handling

Hi Experts.
I have a file to IDOC scenario which need your advice.
Source File structure as follows:
Control_Header <1:1>
Invoice_Header <1:unbounded)
Invoice_Line <1:unbounded)
Trailer <1:1>
Payload as follows capture from SXMB_MONI
- <Control_Header>

 <TransactionID>RCTV</TransactionID>
</Control_Header>
- <Invoice_Header>
 <Key>000</Key>
 <BusinessUnit>HDB05</BusinessUnit>
 <InvoiceNo>64471</InvoiceNo>
</Invoice_Header>
- <Invoice_Line>
 <Key>001</Key>
 <UnitPrice>7.00000</UnitPrice>
 <Quantity>1.0000</Quantity>
 <GSTAmount>0.49</GSTAmount>
 <GSTRate>0.07</GSTRate>
</Invoice_Line>
- <Invoice_Line>
 <Key>001</Key>
 <UnitPrice>8.00000</UnitPrice>
 <Quantity>1.0000</Quantity>
 <GSTAmount>0.56</GSTAmount>
 <GSTRate>0.07</GSTRate>
</Invoice_Line>
- <Invoice_Header>
 <Key>000</Key>
 <BusinessUnit>HDB21</BusinessUnit>
 <InvoiceNo>6Y0575</InvoiceNo>
</Invoice_Header>
- <Invoice_Line>
 <Key>001</Key>
 <UnitPrice>49.50000</UnitPrice>
 <Quantity>1.0000</Quantity>

 <TransactionID>RCTV</TransactionID>
 <TotalFeedLine>96</TotalFeedLine>
 <HashTotalValue>212.00</HashTotalValue>
</Trailer>
</ns:MT_EINVOICE>
Mapping as follow:
 IDOC
<Control_Header> -> <Control_Header>
<Invoice_Header> --> <Header_Invoice>
<Invoice_Line> ---> removeContext --> <Line_Invoice> this is the child node of <Header_Invoice>
<Trailer> -
> <Trailer>
The result of the using the above Payload get the following result which not wht I seek
<Control_Header>
<Header_Invoice>
 <Line_Invoice>
 <Line_Invoice>
 <Line_Invoice> *** This belong to the Invoice_Line of the second <Header_Invoice> at the payload
<Header_Invoice>
 <Line_Invoice> *** THis segment is empty
<Trailer>
I required the Line_Invoice to belong to the child of the second <Header_Invoice>, I have tried using
removecontext with splitVaue and collaspeContext but to no avail.
May I know what is my mistake on the mapping of the Invoice_Line to Line_Invoice>

Hello,
There should be something that could correlate the Invoice_Header/Key and Invoice_Line/Key. In your example, both are the same for the first and data set. If the sample looks like the one below, it is possible to sort things by correlating the Invoice_Header key and Invoice_Line key
<Invoice_Header>
<Key>000<Key>
</Invoice_Header>
<Invoice_Line>
<Key>000<Key>
</Invoice_Line>
<Invoice_Line>
<Key>000<Key>
</Invoice_Line>
<Invoice_Header>
<Key>001<Key>
</Invoice_Header>
<Invoice_Line>
<Key>001<Key>
</Invoice_Line>
An example mapping could look like this
For Header
Invoice_Header --> Header_Invoice
For Line
/InvoiceLine/Key --> removeContext --> splitByValue:valueChanged --> Invoice_Line
The subfields of the invoice line would also follow a similar logic, you just need to use formatByExample --> splitByValue:eachValue so that the context levels are the same.
Hope this helps,
Mark

File to IDOC scenario-no messages in SXMB_MONI

Hi all,
 I know this is asked so many times ,I checked some links but couldn;t find out the gap where it happened.
I am doing a File to IDOC scenario through XI mapping.
I am not getting any messages in SXMB_MONI.
When I check Communication Channel monitering in Runtime Workbench, it shows processing successfully, then it should generate messages in SXMB_MONI and intimate whether the scenario created is correct or not right!
Please help.
My scenario goes like this:
Sender : Business service(Some file location)
Used File adapter for sender communication channnel.
Receiver : Business system(SAP R/3)
Used IDOC Adapter for receiver communication channel.
One more thing is,do I need to create logical system for Business service also?If so, where do I maintain it?(In SAP R/3 or in XI system?)
Till now,I maintained my XI system as logical system in WE20 and I didn't create any logical system for business service in any system.Does it create main problem?

Hi , I am able to poll the files from file location now.and I am receiving IDOC into SAP R/3 with status 56.I already created partner for file path as a logical system and assigned inbound parameters with respective message type . Even the status shows :
An inbound partner profile could not be found with the following key:
/LSDEMO/LS//DEBMAS////
This involves the key fields of table EDP21:
-SNDPRN partner number of sender
-SNDPRT partner type of sender
-SNDPFC partner function of sender
-MESTYP logical message type
-MESCOD logical message code
-MESFCT logical message function
-TEST test flag
I already manitained following data and there is one record in EDP21.
SNDPRN = LSDEMO
SNDPRT = LS
SNDPFC = LS
MESTYP = DEBMAS
MESCOD = space
MESFCT = space
TEST = space
EVCODE = DEBM
SYNCHK = X
METHOD = space
USRTYP = space
USRLNG = space
INMOD = space
DCART = space
And please let me know whether I have to maintain outbound parameters also for my partner in XI system.I didn't see any difference even I maintained it.
And my IDOC takes another port rather than I mentioned in my SNDPRN(sender port) of my IDOC control record in message mapping.Let me know whether it's mandatory to maintain port name with SAP<XXX>convension,because IDOC in R/3 is picking the port with that naming convension.

Problem with Sender service in File to IDOC scenario

Hello All,
Am doing a file to IDOC scenario.
I have configured the sending system as a party and added a business component, to the BC attached the service interface and also configured the sender Communication channel(CC) as file.
On the receiving end configured the R/3 system from SLD as the business system and configured the receiver CCl. Can see the R/3 logical system in the Adapter specific identifiers at business system.
Pushing the file get an error "Unable to convert the sender service to an ALE Logical System". But choosing "Take sender from Payload" in the receiver CC is resolving the problem, however the sender partner number remains the same as what I have mapped to the control record in message mapping (which is like hard coding).
My questions are:
1. Am I doing the correct config in terms of the scenario. (like using "Take sender from Payload")
2. I tried using identifiers at the party level to convert the sending system, but nothing seems to work. But sending system remains the same as the constant from mapping.
Suggestions would be very much helpful..
--Prashanth
PS: Have gone through many blogs and posts on the forums, but may be I did not see the correct thread. Apologies if I am asking this again.

Hi Prashanth,
refer the below discussion i think it will solve your problem.
File To Idoc scenario

Loop in file to IDoc scenario PI 7.11 (Support Package 04)

In our scenario we use FileSenderCommunicationChannel to get files from FTP-Server. After processing the file should be saved in archive directory on our PI-Server (UNIX-System). Physically the archive directory is not in our PI-Server, it is a mapped windows server directory.
In case of non availability of the archive directory (e.g. windows server down), we have the following described problem.
1.
Start processing of file from FTP-Server (File with 2 lines, result 1 IDoc per line (2 IDocs))
2.
In AdapterEngine monitor we find 2 messages (successfully). Audit-Log of last message (second line) contains the following error.
File "TUM00001.TXT" - archiving file "/ext/windows_server/X/OLD/20100326-075807-897_TUM00001.TXT" after processing failed with java.io.FileNotFoundException: /ext/windows_server/X/OLD/20100326-075807-897_TUM00001.TXT (No such file or directory) - retry.
3.
In IntegrationEngine monitor we also find 2 messages for the IDocu2019s.
Error situation:
Now the loop startsu2026. (until directory is available (mapped)). Frequency of loop depends on u201CPoll Interval (secs)u201D of FileSenderCommunicationChannel.
1.
Create new message in AdapterEngine for last line of the file (with same entry in Audit-Log u201Cerror for archiving fileu201D)
2.
Create new message (IDoc) in IntegrationEngine
We doesnu2019t have this problem in our old environment (XI 3.0 Support Package 21).
Parameter of FileSenderCommunicationChannel:
Quality of Service: Exactly Once
Poll Interval (secs): 3600
Processing Mode: Archive
Archive Directory: /ext/windows_server/X/OLD
Directory for Archiving Files with Errors: /ext/windows_server/X/OLD/ERR
Recordset Structure: ROW, 1
Recordset Sequence: Ascending
Recordset per Message: 1
For me itu2019s an error, but Iu2019m not sure because itu2019s a mapped directory.....

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

File to idoc scenario in pi 7.1

Hi All,

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

XI 3 File to IDoc scenario - Still referencing Old Logical system

Hi
Dont know if you can help. I have a file to idoc scenario using XI 3 to R/3 4.6c system.
I had the interface working from a third party system XMLHUB to SAP R/3. The Logical system name for the XMLHUB was XMLHUB01 in the SLD which I have set up as a partner profile in R/3. I have recently changed the logical system name to XMLHUBDEV01 in the SLD and created that logical system in R/3 and changed the partner profile to XMLHUBDEV01.
Unfortunately in the sender information of the IDoc the partner number is still XMLHUB01 and not XMLHUBDEV01. I don't understand where this partner is sent from to get into the control record of the IDoc.
I have cleared the SLD cache in both the Repository and the directory. Is there somewhere else I should be looking? Any help would be appreciated.

Daniel

IDocs not created in file to IDoc scenario

Hi all
I am trying this file to IDoc scenario.
File picked up successfully and sent to R/3 BackendBut Idoc is not postedthe status records
In /n we05 in R/3 Backend shows that EDI: Partner profile inbound not available
I created/tested all basics like RFC dest, port etc.
File service that I am using is a business service hence I am specifying a Logical system name in
Adapter specific Identifiers of the file service.
I disabled EDI_DC40 control tag record as IDoc adapter
takes care of it.
So at first I tried the configuration of IDoc comm. Channel by checking the Apply control record values from payload
But SXMB monitor gave an error regarding this control record tagI guess as we have disabled it so there wont be any values
for control record in payload (correct me if I am wrong).
So I unchecked the checkbox Apply control record values from payload and monitor showed up as successfully processed.
But in the backend I am getting this error regarding partner profile.
I also tried to use an existing profile (LS type) by modifying its inbound parameters to accept CREMAS Idoc.
But the error is as persistent as me
Pls help

Doubt in file 2 idoc scenario

hi,
I am trying to execute to file 2 idoc scenario.
I created DT,MT for XML file outbound system.
After importing idoc
how can i create DT, MT for idoc to connect oubound DT,MT (file side)?
I am following this wiki guide
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/wiki?path=/display/profile/2007/05/11/fileToIDOC&

hi Raj,
It means in Idoc, for each field Mesage type, data type are defined, no need to create to once again here in XI.
plz if i understood wrongly means correct me.
ONE MORE THING
i imported cremas04 idoc,
in that EDI_DC40 contains control record
E1LFA1M contain data record
is it correct?
