Mappings in XI

We have diffrent mapping types in XI like message mapping, java mapping, ABAP mapping and XSLT mapping. Can anybody explain me why these many types of mappings are required?

HI
Usually Java mapping is preferred when the target structure is relatively complex and the transformation cannot be accomplished by simple graphical mapping.
When to use Java mapping
1) Java mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you.
Advantages of Java Mapping.
1)you can use Java APIs and Classes in it.
2) file look up or a DB lookup is possible
3) DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements.
Java mapping can be used when you have complex mapping structures.

XSLT mappings can be imported into the Integration Repository; java methods can be called from within the XSLT style sheet. Advantages of this mapping are: open standard, portable, extensible via Java user-defined functions

Step By Step Simple Approach for XSLT Mapping
Advantages of using XSLT mapping
XSLT program itself defines its own target structure.
XSLT programs can be imported into SAP XI. Message mapping step can be avoided. One can directly go for interface mapping once message interfaces are created and mapping is imported.
XSLT can be used in combination with graphical mapping.
Multi-mapping is also possible using xslt.
XSLT can be used with ABAP and JAVA Extensions.
Disadvantages of using XSLT mapping
Resultant XML payload can not be viewed in SXMB_MONI if not in XML format (for service packs < SP14).
Interface mapping testing does not show proper error description. So errors in XSLT programs are difficult to trace in XI but can be easily identified outside XI using browser.
XSLT mapping requires more memory than mapping classes generated in Java.

All device mappings lost, including DVD, trying to install Windows 8.1 on a new SSD disk containing no OS

I have a catch-22 situation. When I installed a new SSD disk on my desktop (does not contain an OS), Windows 8.1 would not install. The error stated that there was no partition to install on. I saw a Forum describing initializing the drive with DISKPART
using the advanced tools and a command prompt I got through the windows 8.1 installation disk, which I did successfully.
I did what it described, created an active partition, an all my drive mappings were lost. Now I can't access the Windows installation disk because the mapping was lost on my DVD reader. The error says to press any key to boot from DVD, when I do this the
message just comes up again. It is clear my DVD is not spinning or being accessed. So, every solution I have read on these forums seems to depend on being able to read the DVD, which I cannot do. I have unplugged all hard drives but the new SSD and DVD
reader.
When I try to get a listing from the shell, my only option, it says nothing is mapped. My BIOS settings boot first from DVD, then from disk. It doesn't matter, the DVD cannot be accessed.
How do I map my DVD with no OS so the Windows installation disk can be accessed?

Hello LBLivnat,
With no operating system, the DVD recognization is not from Windows.
Please go to bios and check if the DVD rom is recognized in the BIOS.
Please contact the manufacturer and check if the issue is from the BIOS.

AWM: Can not see the synonyms in the mappings pane

Hi, using the AWM 11.2.0.1.0A, in the mappings pane under the item Synonyms does not appear any synonyms although there are some of them (private synonyms) in the user's scheme.
Any hint?
Thanks.

I just tried this in 11.2.0.1 and the synonym showed up in AWM. I ran the following (in the sample GLOBAL schema)
create synonym prod_table for product_dim;
Note that product_dim is a table in the GLOBAL schema, and I ran the above statement as GLOBAL.
I then attached AWM as GLOBAL and saw prod_table show up in the synonyms folder of the mappings pane. What are you doing that is different from this?

Execute CDC mappings from a PL/SQL procedure

Hi,
I´m using OWB 11.2.0.2 for Linux. I´ve created some CDC mappings to update cubes with changes coming from other tables and cubes (from the tables that implement those cubes with the relational option). The issues are:
- The CDC mappings run successfully from the OWB (Project Navigator - Start), but I cannot execute them from a procedure in PL/SQL with the following code:
PROCEDURE "PROC_RUNCDCMAPPINGS" IS
--inicializar variables aquí
RetVal NUMBER;
P_ENV WB_RT_MAPAUDIT.WB_RT_NAME_VALUES;
-- ventana principal
BEGIN
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBO_RECARGA.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBO_TOR.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBO_TOAE.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBO_VIAJES.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBO_TICKETINCIDENCIA.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBO_LIQMONEDERO.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.CDC_LOAD_CUBOS_LIQTEMPORALES.MAIN(P_ENV);
COMMIT;
END;
It doesn´t report any error (the value for RetVal after execution is 0), but the cubes are not loaded with changes, and the changes stored in the J$_%tables are not consumed.
Some of the options that may impact in the mappings are:
- All the CDC are of Simple type
- There are more than one subscriber to consume the changes, as for some tables, its changes must feed more than one CDC.
- All the mappings include only one execution unit per mapping.
- The integration/load template is the default: DEFAULT_ORACLE_TARGET_CT
Other question is: As I explained, I need more than one subscriber because same updates must be consumed by different CDC mappings, to load different cubes, but I´ve not been able to assign the subscribers to only the tables associated with them, so all the subscribers are subscribed to all the changes in all the CDC tables, but as many of those subscribers never consume the changes of same tables, in the J$_% tables remains the not consumed records, and I haven´t found the way to purge those tables (other than the delete from J$_), nor to assign the tables with the subscribers (so the subscribers are only subscribed to their interested changes, that will be consumed, so the tables will be emptied after the consumption).
Any help with these problems will be greatly appreciated.
Tell me if more info is needed to clarify the situation.
Best regards,
Ana

Hi David,
Thank you for your reply.
These mappings are the mappings needed to update the cubes with the changes detected by the CDC system, they are located under the Mapping Templates folder and I´m using code templates for the control of the loading and the integration (the DEFAULT_ORACLE_TARGET_CT) mapping.
What I need is to execute these mappings within a PL/SQL procedure that will be invoked from different tools.
I´ve done it for regular mappings (not CDC mappings), and it works. The code is the same as for the CDC ones:
PROCEDURE "PROC_RUNLOADMAPPINGS" IS
--inicializar variables aquí
RetVal NUMBER;
P_ENV WB_RT_MAPAUDIT.WB_RT_NAME_VALUES;
-- ventana principal
BEGIN
RetVal:= BARIK.LOAD_CUBO_RECARGA.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.LOAD_CUBO_TOR.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.LOAD_CUBO_TOAE.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.LOAD_CUBO_VIAJES.MAIN(P_ENV);
RetVal:= BARIK.LOAD_CUBO_TICKETINCIDENCIA.MAIN(P_ENV);
COMMIT;
END;
-- End of PROC_RUNLOADMAPPINGS;
,and when I run it, the mappings are executed, but with the CDC ones it doesn´t (even when no error is reported).
I know that they are deployed in the selected agent (in my case the Default_Agent), but when I start them from the OWB, the mapping packages are created in the DB schema, so, I thought that maybe I could invoke them....so what you tell me is that the only way to invoke them is from SQL*Plus? not from a regular PL/SQL procedure?
Thank you very much,
Ana

HP Express Card Mini Remote Mappings, Issues, Woahs, Questions.

Ok, I am trying to actually get this Mini-Remote to be useful for my DV5-1235DX.
First, is there an easy way to remap the buttons on the remote control? I will never use HP Smart DVD. I do not use HP Smart Menu. I will not use Media Center. I prefer my own software over those packages.
1). Any way to map those buttons to something else and stop the calls they make starting the existing software?
2). Is there a full list of which media functions the remaining buttons are mapped to? I have found some so far provided below.
Remote Button Virtual Key Media Key
Stop VK_MEDIA_STOP MEDIA_STOP
Rewind MEDIA_FASTFORWARD
Play/Pause VK_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE
Fast Forward MEDIA_REWIND
Previous VK_MEDIA_PREVIOUS_TRACK MEDIA_PREVIOUSTRACK
Next VK_MEDIA_NEXT_TRACK MEDIA_NEXTTRACK
Up MEDIA_CHANNEL_UP
Down MEDIA_CHANNEL_DOWN
Direction Up VK_UP
Direction Down VK_DOWN
Direction Left VK_LEFT
Direction Right VK_RIGHT
OK VK_RETURN
Back VK_BROWSER_BACK BROWSER_BACKWARD
Settings "i" Volume Down VK_VOLUME_DOWN VOLUME_DOWN
Mute VK_VOLUME_MUTE VOLUME_MUTE
Volume Up VK_VOLUME_UP VOLUME_UP
As can be seen I am still missing some key buttons and their matched Media Key Function Name.
I would appreciate any and all help on finding the missing button functions and remapping the current app start calls.
Thank you very much in advance for your time,
Kelly
P.S. - EDIT: A programmer friend pointed out the IR Software/Driver may be sending virtual keys and not just media key signals. With that I was able to map a few more to their virtual key and can use those buttons now as well.
With this new information I can now map all buttons except the little "i" and the 5 buttons across the top (Power, DVD, SmartMenu, Display Switch, MediaCenter).
P.P.S. - Is there even an application that does anything when pressing the "i" button on the remote? I've tried almost every application that was installed on the laptop and not one has responded when pressing that button. The HP User Guides section 'HP Mobile Remote Control (Select Models Only) > Button quick reference' lists this button as Settings and says:
"Press to display system information. The button may also be used to display settings menus for some multimedia software." It does not display system information and I have yet to find any software it displays anything in.
Message Edited by kelendral on 2009-04-25 07:48 PM

Well, I called HP Support today.
They verified the only reaction they could get from that "Settings" button on a similar model (they did not have the exact DV5-1235dx on hand) was to interrupt the screen saver. This is the exact and only behavoir I have found with that key.
They were also unable to provide any technical information (such as remote code, key being emulated, virtual key command, or media key mapping).
So basically on a similar model device they experienced the exact same thing, the key appears to have no function in any of the software provided by HP.
It is very disappionting that their technical support was so lacking that they could not describe the functionality of the key even after being sent up a level and passed over to a third tech.
Until I figure out the mapping of this key, it appears to be a nice way to remotely interrupt the screensaver. Then again any of the other keys will do that as well.
I did find some use for knowing both the VK and MK mappings. Media Player Classic HomeCinema allows the use of either VK or MK mapping. It also allows the use of both. By using both some keys can be made to perform double duty.
Example: MPC-HC has the Play function mapped to MK of MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE. By mapping the VK of VK_MEDIA_PLAY_PAUSE to one of the Jump Backward commands [eg Jump Backward (medium)] then hitting the Play/Pause key while something is playing will pause playback, and do a short rewind. It will also do another short rewind and start playing again on the next press.
Example 2: MPC-HC has the Mute function mapped to MK VOLUME_MUTE. By mapping the VK of VK_VOLUME_MUTE to Toggle Subtitles then pressing Mute will mute the sound and turn subtitles on. Press again to turn subtitles off and turn the sound back on.
This remote is similar to other HP laptops and so if you happen to know a piece of software which responds to the 'Settings i' button on any model of the HP laptop with any express card style remote running Windows Vista 64-bit please give a shout.
Thanks again,
Kelly

Problem with Mappings in the new Version of NWDS

Hello all,
i have a process which created in the NWDS (Version: SAP Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver 7.1 SP00 PAT0000) checked in the CVS.
Now i have the process checked out of the CVS in the new Version of NWDS (Version: SAP Enhancement Package 1 for SAP NetWeaver Developer Studio 7.1 SP01 PAT0003).
The process contains a automated activity and on the output mapping from the webservice is now n error. The Error: "Expected 'com.sap.dictionary.string,ns=.... Found list of 'char10,ns=..." I´ve changed nothing and the input mapping and the other mappings are all right. I checked out again the same process in the "old" Version of NWDS and it works fine.
Knows somebody how i can "import" n process from an older Version of NWDS into the new Version?
Kind regards,
Bastian

Hi Bastian,
The problem you are facing is a trivial problem. You need not worry about the importing the whole development component again. Rather your mapping error can be removed by changing the context in webdynpro perspective easily.
Your error is telling that the automated activity requires a string paramenter and what it has found is a list of parameters.
What this means is in the Webdynpro context, the mapping which you have done has problems.
The webservice input requires a singleton parameter. If you look into the mapping view, you will notice a single icon for the node which you are mapping.
And what you are sending is a list (not a singletion node)
If you see from the left side from where the parameters is coming in you will notice multiple icons (stack on top of each other) representing non singleton nodes ie cardinatlity is 0...n or 1..n)
So to remove the problem just go to component controller of the view and change the context setting
Colletion cardinality of 0..1 or 1..1 and selection cardinality to 0..1 or 1..1 of the node.
Thnks

Where to look for all value mappings being used in ID

Hi All,
Where to look for all value mappings being used in ID?

Hi,
Let me re-frame it, Do u want to know where all the value mappings(created in ID) is used in Mapping Program of IR, isn't it?
If yes, then it's not possible( as far as I know).

How to use Value Mappings for simple translations?

Hello,
I want to use Value Mappings for simple translations in mappings, e.g. from IDoc to Inhouse structures.
For example unit of quantity:
IDOC    -->    INHOUSE
PCE               P
ABC               A
How can I use Value Mapping for this? What should be used as Agency, what should be used for Scheme? What about groups? I tried the following: I created a new Value Mapping in Integration Directory:
- Source Agency: DELVRY05
- Source Scheme: MENEE (IDoc field name)
- Target Acency: INHOUSE_DESADV (Name of structure)
- Target scheme: UNIT (Name of field)
Then, in the table, I added several lines for translating PCE to P and ABC to A and so on. But I have to define a group name for each line. I used INHOUSE. But than I get one INHOUSE group for each line.
This seems very complicated for simple translations from A to B. I don't want to use FixValue in Message mappings.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks,
Christoph

Hello,
@pavan kumar: Thanks, but I know all Blogs about Value Mappings. That does not help me. And I refer to PI 7.1.
Lets get it very simple: I want to have exactly the same functionality of "FixValues" as ValueMappings. In 7.1, I need to define a Group for every row / line in the conversion table (e.g. for units of measurement conversion between IDoc and FlatFile). That does not make sense for me, as the Group is always the same, e.g. "Unit of measurement". So I will get dozens of same groups called "Unit of measurement".
I don't really understand the concept of Groups. Maybe this is just not appropiate for my intenses? Maybe the Group has to be defined as one specific value of Unit of measurement, e.g. "pieces"?

How to Deploy all mappings in a module using OMB+

Hi,
I am using OMB+ to deploy project from DEV to QA , i used a OMB+ script to do the export and one import script to do the import/deployment
both Export and Import are working fine , the problem is in the Deploy part of Import script,
in this script I am connecting to the Repository and importing the Project from DEV and then changed the Context to the module and then connected to the Control centre , when i tried to deploy the mapping i get the error saying the location is not registered to the module
ususally if i use the GUI i double click the module and add the location to the module, howcan i do that in OMB+ ,
Example script would help me a lot
and for deploying the mappings i am using
OMBCREATE TRANSIENT DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'DEPLOY_PLAN' ADD ACTION 'MAP_DEPLOY' SET PROPERTIES (OPERATION) VALUES ('CREATE') SET REFERENCE MAPPING 'MAPPING NAME'
but i don't want to pass mapping names like this i just want to deploy all mappings in a single step
Please advice me
Thanks in Advance

I embeded your script in mine but i was getting errors , i am still trying to resolve it, mine is a TCL script can u please suggest me where actually i should incorporate the ur code and to what level,
in my case we have just one module and need to deploy all the mappings in that module , the above script working fine but i don't want to give all names of mappings hardcoded.

How to create a new user in OWB that can only view other user's mappings

Hello Everyone,
I am new to OWB and want to know if possible to create different users that can only view other user's mappings without making any changes. Do you know if possible each user can have his own password?
Thank you for your help!
Jennifer

A good starting point would be this blog posting:
https://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/entry/build_up_multi-role_development_environment_in_owb
I seem to recall as well from the OWB Admin class that existing objects in the repository would need to have the security updated if the additional restricted roles are created after tables/mappings/etc. so that they reflect the new security model.
Also, for individual logins to OWB, each developer would require a separate database login.

Can you clone Remote System key mappings?

We have 2 Remote Systems set up for our MDM repository with key mappings for 60 tables. I now need to add an additional Remote System which is similar to one of the existing ones, but with a few different values. Is there any way I can clone the existing one or do I have to go through all 60 tables one by one, export the info, edit it to show the new Remote System name and re-import it? I have searched the sources but can't find anything on this precise topic.
Thanks for any help you can give.
Peter Croft

Peter,
No you cannot.
Prepare a source having Just two columns ex., new Remote Keys of the system and an common identifier field in the table which you are planning to import with the data. Import it and get it to the data manager as records with just two fields(Remote Key and Common identifier). If you have the import maps already stored for the tables when you have done for the previous imports for the other two remote systems, use them and automate the importing process for this particular remote system (via port configuration in console and Data manager) for the remaining fields of the table.

TopLink 9.0.4.5 and aggregate object mappings

We use TopLink version 9.0.3 to access Oracle database 9i with our application.
I currently evaluate TopLink version 9.0.4.5 with Oracle database 10g (10.1.0.3.0).
The problem we have is with aggregate object mappings.
After instantiation of the owning and the owned object, we set a back reference from the owned object to the owning object.
We then register the owning object at the unit of work with registerObject() and work on the returned clone.
After commit we read again the created data.
Using TopLink version 9.0.3:
The owned object has the back reference to the owning object.
Using TopLink version 9.0.4.5:
The owning object is valid but at the owned object the back reference is missing (null).
That's strange because we had no problems in the past (since TOPLink 2.1 up to 9.0.3).
What is going wrong here? Any idea?

How was the back pointer mapped in the TopLink project?
If you check your project from 9.0.3.X is there a Descriptor event listener with postBuild and postClone implemented?.

Interface Mappings in BPM Collect Pattern

Hello
I am new to XI development and currently facing problems while implementing collect pattern of BPM.
I am trying to map IDoc structure with target legacy format.In BPM I had a block with infinite loop where I am transforming IDocs to target legacy format.Then I am trying to transform list element (Multiline Abstract container variable) to form a single message.For this I tried to have interface map with Occurences 0..unbound..but while activation of Interface Map it gives error
<b> Mapping program Message does not match the interface mapping. The number or frequencies of source or target messages for the message mapping are not identical to the number or frequencies of source or target interfaces.</b>
If I use single line in Interface map then in BPM it gives error when passed Multiline element to this Interface map.
I checked the sample program provided by SAP but I found out that every message interface was using same Message Type which has got occurence as 1 but in the message mapping program its 0..unbound.
My question is can we have data type (or Message type )with Occurence as 1 and Message Mapping program using same message type with occurences 0..unbound..I tried to find such option but could'nt find that.Otherwise how to do Interface Map for transforming Multiline parameter of BPM to a single message.
Please help..Thanks in advance..

List of mappings/tables using SCD2?

Hello,
we're having a history data problem in customer's environment (BI APPS 7.9.5) and now we need a list of all tables or mappings that are using SCD 2. I found a documentation where is mentioned 6 "must be scd2"-dimensions but is there an easy way see which mappings are flagged as 'Y' in $$TYPE2_FLG mapping parameter (without going through every single mapping)?
Thanks in advance,
Mari

Why not search the DAC for that parameter. The parameter value is set at the DAC level..not in informatica. If you want to get creative, you can also query the DAC metadata tables, but may be faster just manually going through the list of tasks one by one in DAC and checking for that param value.

Issue in Target Column mappings in ODI

Hi Guru's,
Unable to uncheck Insert and Update checkbox in the Update section of target column mappings.
How we can uncheck the Insert and Update checkbox for the columns which should not affect in the target datastore?

Hi
My requirement is to only perform updation on some columns based on the key
How it can be implemented in the ODI interface mappings?

Avoiding creation of DBlink during deployment of mappings using OMBPlus

Hi
we are facing an issue in our OWB 11g R2 (upgraded to patchset 10185523)
We are deploying the mappings using OMBPlus like so
OMBCREATE TRANSIENT DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'DEPLOY_PLAN' ADD ACTION '$object_type_DEPLOY' SET PROPERTIES (OPERATION)VALUES ('CREATE') SET REFERENCE $object_type '$objname'
OMBDEPLOY DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'DEPLOY_PLAN'
set OMBCONTINUE_ON_ERROR true
OMBDROP DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN 'DEPLOY_PLAN'
OMBCOMMIT
The $objname is any object(in this case a mapping) that we are deploying
OMBPlus generates a script on OWB level to create the associated DBlink each time it deploys a mapping and we get an error
INFORMATIONAL
multiple rows found for select into statement
DBlink_a Create Error ORA-02011: duplicate database link name
But the mapping deploys fine.
Any tips how we can avoid creation of dblinks from OMBPlus whilst deploying our mappings only?
Any help will be appreciated

I dont think that you can:
"Deploying a mapping or a process flow includes these steps:
•Generate the PL/SQL, SQL*Loader, or ABAP script, if necessary.
•Register the required locations and deploy any required connectors. This ensures that the details of the physical locations and their connectors are available at runtime."

But error that you get is only informational so you dont have to worry about it.
