Multi-mapping help

Hi, anybody can help to point out a blog about how to create multi-mapping with detailed step-by-step and pictures.
I try to learn how to create one.
I read sap help as below, it's too complex to understand , thank you
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/Helpdata/EN/21/6faf35c2d74295a3cb97f6f3ccf43c/content.htm

Hi Shiwudao,
In case if you want to merge messages coming from different receivers by using Multimapping .You just need to create Multimapping between abstract interfaces and specify them in the Transformation step,and at the same time you need to take care of the ID objects also.Here u need not use any Enhanced interface determination also.
Refer the Integration process design in following Wiki on BPM Pattern to get an idea on how to use multimapping in BPM transformation step.

Multi mapping - solution ??

HI
This is regarding a typical scenario where SAP XI 3.0 receives data through an outbound ABAP proxy , the output of these have to be files ...but the problem is :
a) There will be around 15 files - 5 of type .txt , 5 of type .CSV and 5 of .RTF all to placed on a single location , how to achieve this ? design wise . ..
b) all the files will have different formats i.e all txt files will be of a different format but the source data will be the same ,which means from the same incoming Xl different files need to be formed , We dont want to use BPM ...
does it mean we need 15 differenct Communication channels ??
and do we require 15 different mapping also ??
Kindly suggest if it can be done through multi mapping , i am unsure how
thanks
Dev

Hi,
>>a) These 15 files are of different out put formats( as in the 5 csv files have different layouts and so does the 5 txt files ) , so does it essentially mean 15 different mappings and 15 different file communication channels ?
No need of 15 mappings, one multimapping will do.. where from one source message type you are creating 15 target message type....
>>b) Enhance interface determination basically helps me in creating (n)Target interfaces from 1 source message, right ?
but then when i have 15 different mappings ... how does multi mapping help ? isnt itas good as 15 different interaces ??
i think you are confused.. do like this
1. Create a message mapping
2. Go to the signature tab and add one source message type and 15 target message type..
3. Come to definition tab and complete the mapping
4. You can see that lot of Message, Message0 etc are created, these help in doing multimapping and this is multimapping
1. Create interface mapping
2. Go to the signature tab and add one source message interface and 15 target message interface..
3. Do read interface and select the mapping done in above step
1. Create interface determination.
2. Provide the interface mapping created above there
3. Create 15 communication channel and 15 receiver agreement

Need help in Multi mapping

Hi experts,
we have a scenario need to send an EDI text file to 2 different receivers. We are receving the EDI file using the JMS adapter as Sender and File/FTP adapter as a receiver.
We are using Multi mapping (includes Java mapping and Graphical ) to send the Messages to receivers, While sending we are getting the Error In Moni as "Error in creating Multi XML Document".
In Java Mapping we are Converting the EDI text to EDI xml with <ns0:Messages1> and the output of Java mapping to Graphical Mapping,
While testing in Interface Mapping Test it works fine.
Please provide your Valuable inputs.
Thanks,
Ramg

Help on config 1:n multi-map

Hi, guru
I refered https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/3115. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
In PI7.1 ESB, Now I created 1:n message mapping and Operation Mapping.
I think next step is to create a Integration process and go to Integration builder to build a scenario for it?
right?
Are there any detailed info about those steps? thank you ! The blogs about multi mapping have not talked about much about those steps.

what?
It output results even I did not specify the Receiver determine to the Extended option!
Howevey it output many files, is it correct?
The source XML are:
<source>
<item> <name>aa</name> <country> AAA</country> </item>
<item> <name>aa</name> <country> BBB</country> </item>
</source>
I expect output 2 files:
<output1>
<name>aa</name>
<name>bb</name>
</output1>
and
<output2>
<country>AAA</country>
<country>BBB</country>
</output2>
However it output 4 files.
2 for name
and 2 for country.
Is it correct behaviour??

Multi Mapping

Hi all,
I need a help on how to go about the following scenerio.
XI first performs a multi-mapping that creates two output messages:
One is the target message in Flat File Format. The mapping also generates the filename for the output message which should follow the format 11_<Unique ID>.txt. This filename is written into the XML Payload of the message. The File Adapter later does a flat file conversion on the message. In this step, the filename is not written into the flat file. Instead, it is used by the file adapter as the target filename.
The file should be placed in a specified directory.
The mapping also creates a second message, which only contains the same filename in the payload. This message goes to a second File Adapter, which also does a flat file conversion. Its output only contains the filename that was created by the mapping, followed by a line break. The output of this File Adapter is written into the same directory as the first file. The name of the output file is 11.catlg. If the file already exists in the target directory, the output needs to be appended to this file.
Thankyou.

Shruthi,
It seems the payload contains the filename and this filename as to be used in the Communication Channel of file adapter.If my understanding is correct the problem can be solved by the Variable substitution. Refer the below link:[http://****************/Tutorials/XI/Variable/substitution.htm]

Multi Mapping error

Hi,
I am required to have a IP recieve 3 IDOC types triggered from BD10 . It can trigger 3 or more IDOCs. For Eg.
1 ARTMAS (only 1) , 2 INFRECs and 1 LIKOND.
If anyone IDOC has come then after a waiting period of 1 minute it should come out of FORK.
My IP is like this.
In a FORK there are 4 branches.
1) ARTMAS receiver
2) Loop(infinite) with INFREC Receiver and a Container Operation to collect all IDOCs
3) Loop(infinite) with LIKOND Receiver and a Container Operation to collect all IDOCs
4) A wait Step with a container operation to initialize endtime variable
necesary branches: 4
The Fork Comes out when the end condition is met ie the End variable is Set or if all the IDOCS have come.
Corelation on MATNR.
Next I have the transormation and send step.
In the MM i have 3 Source and 1 Target.
Artmas 0-1 occurance
INFREC 0 - unbounded
LINKND 0-unbounded
I have created the Target with External Definition and have set the correct occurance in the XSD file
I have mapped the neceessary Segments from INFREC and LIKOND and all the Segments of ARTMAS to the Target structure.
In SXMBMONI it says error on Outbound side and
I see Mapping Exception when I seen in WORKFLOW.
Is my design Correct?
I have tested the Interface & Message Mapping they are correct
Request your help.

Check the following
1. Have u mapped the root level element?
2. Inside interface mapping, when u say read interface, is it diplaying both the interface.
Also check ur input

SP14 Multi-mapping - error in receiver idoc adapter

Hi,
I have a scenario where a business service should send some XML to SAP CRM. I get the file via a sender JMS adapter and try to post it to CRM via a receiver IDOC adapter.
I have created a multimapping (1:N - 1 XML file to many Idocs) as should in the repository.
In the configuration under Interface Determination, I have chosen 'RB_SPLIT' and selected the interface multimapping.
It should be pointed out, that when testing both interface and message mapping i get no error. All idocs seem to be created as they should.
When testing the setup 'real life' the message fails. The error message in the monitor says:
- 
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="">
<SAP:Category>XIAdapter</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="IDOC_ADAPTER">ATTRIBUTE_WRONG_INTF</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1>InterfaceCollection</SAP:P1>
<SAP:P2 />
<SAP:P3 />
<SAP:P4 />
<SAP:AdditionalText />
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
<SAP:Stack>Unable to interpret IDoc interface InterfaceCollection</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
Notice that the above error is when trying to send only 1 record, which in turn then should result in only 1 idoc.
If trying to send multiple XML records, i get the following error:
- 
- <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="">
<SAP:Category>XIServer</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="OUTBINDING">MMF_ENGINETYPE</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1 />
<SAP:P2 />
<SAP:P3 />
<SAP:P4 />
<SAP:AdditionalText />
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
<SAP:Stack>A system error occurred in the outbound binding</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
In the monitor in the payload of 'Request message mapping' I see as many Maindocument, Submaindocument pairs as should be Idocs.
Now i really don't know how to interpret the error messages in both cases, so I'm a little lost here...
It should be pointed out that the idoc being used everywhere in this scenario, has not been modified - from all places it is being used (and only exists) in the 'Imported objects | Idocs' place.
Also the Idoc is also being used as Inbound interface - so no mistakes here either.
I really hope someone can help me here, as I'm otherwise pretty stuck in this case.
Best regards,
Daniel

Hi Daniel,
I have exactly the same type of scenario (under SPS14 and now also SPS15), sending an XML message over JMS to XI and trying a multi-mapping to many IDocs (actually a list of orders in XML is mapped to n ORDERS Idocs).
I also face problems doing so, when I use the IDoc Adapter as outbound in the Receiver Agreement. I receive the following error:
CO_TXT_MMF_ENGINETYPE
Messages in multi message format can be sent to one adapter engine only
However, I tested the same scenario by just changing the Receiver Agreement to a File Communication Channel and - surprise, surprise - it works. One file per IDoc is created.
Of course, this is not what we want to accomplish, but when I checked this piece of documentation (sorry another link
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/42/ed364cf8593eebe10000000a1553f7/content.htm
the IDoc adapter is not listed in the list of Adapters that are supported. Does that mean, that this feature is not supported for generating IDocs? Maybe that's a question for a SAP OSS Message?
I hope that helped you a little further - if you find out more I'd be happy to learn about it.
regards,
Peter

Multi mapping with out BPM

HI ALL ,
I am trying to do multi mapping with out using BPM .I will get message from the sender and i need to send that to two different target system. I have defined the mapping in the IR . In ID i have created the configuration scenario and i have created the receiver determination .In receiver determination i have selected "EXTENDED" and when i select input help for mapping name it says "NO Object found". What else should i do get the mapping program here .
Regards,
Tarun.

Bhavesh,
I'm sorry but if he needs 2 different receivers, then it's not the case of using Enhanced Interface Determination.
sapuser,
if you scenario is asynchronous, then it's easily implemented.
But it won't be achieved with multimapping.
You'll have 2 receivers in receiver determination (normal RD, not enhanced). For each of those, you'll have to create a separate simple mapping (that will generate the message expected at each receiver system) and refer that mapping in the interface determination of each receiver.
For example, you have input_message containing data1 and data 2. You'll have 2 simple mappings (not a multimapping), 1 generating output_message_1 containing data1 and the other generating output_message_2 containing data2. Then refer those mappings in the proper interface determinations.
Regards,
Henrique.

Multi-mapping for ibound IDOC

Hi! All
It would be of great help if you provide your suggestions on:
Mapping one XML source file to 6 IDOC receivers, 2 of them are of the same type and 4 are distinct idoc types.
I tried multi-mapping and received the following error:
"Messages in multi-message format can only be sent to one Adapter Engine"
Looks like IDOC adapter does not support multi mapping...
Can you please suggest any other option apart from using BPM(since it consumes lot of resources).
Thanks a lot!!
Regards,
Patrick

Hey
its not possible to do Multimapping over IDOC's without BPM.
other way around can be to do a single -single scenario,suppose u have 6 IDOC's to post then u need to design 6 different scenarios for them.
without BPM you cant do multimapping for IDOC or HTTP
Thanx

Multi-mapping 1:n - 1:1

Hi,
We are using multi-mapping in a file-to-file interface. When we have 1:n everything is ok, but when we have 1:1 we have this error:
Success The message status set to DLNG.
Error Unable to find channel ID
Error Delivery of the message to the application using connection AFW failed, due to: Couldn't find delivery channel for message: f285a9a0-4a74-11dc-b843-00145e1b2f3d.
We need this interface working for both 1:n and 1:1 situations.
Any idea?
Thanks for your help:)

Multi-mapping not found at configuration time

Hi
I have defined an interface mapping that takes one msg interface as source and two msg interfaces as targets - the underlying message mapping is a multi-mapping.
However , when I go to configuration time - and create a enhanced interface determination - and drop down - to pick up multi-mapping - it says no objects found !!!
I double check the sender interface and its link with the SWCV , the interface mapping - everything is ok . Coud anybody help me - as to why my multi-mapping is not being picked up at configuration time ( I also check the runtime cache - everything is ok )
Please help !!!!

Multi-mapping activate changes error

Good afternoon!
I want to use multi-mapping to split one IDoc(WBBDLD04) to some xml documents.I want XI to create one xml document per segment E1WBB01 of WBBDLD04 IDoc. I set Occurrence = 0..unbounded for target interface in interface mapping . Then I try to activate changes. IX generate errors:
MaterialMasterRequestMapping | http://sap.com/xi/SBO:
A multi-mapping with multiple source or target interface instances is only recommended with asynchronous interfaces, since only a mapping of this type can be used in the process editor. IDoc WBBDLD.WBBDLD04 | urn:sap-com:document:sap:idoc:messages are not asynchronous abstract interfaces
Mapping program Message Mapping MaterialMaster2SBO_GT2 | http://sap.com/xi/SBO 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.
Tell me please, what I do wrong?
Thanks!
Lositskiy Alexandr

Alexandr,
You need to create an Abstract from your IDoc (Message Interface).
To use mutli mapping, you need to create a Business Process. Then in your Business Scenario, use your Business Process and reference your multi map.
Hope this helps.

Simon

Multi-Mapping Error in PI 7.1 - External Definitions

Hi all,
We have just upgraded to PI 7.1 from 7.0 and run into an issue with message multi-mappings, just wondered if anyone else had met the same issue and worked it out...
When creating a message mapping, we are using as the target an external definition which is defined by an XSD generated by a third party tool (Seeburger).
When I map 1:1 (1 source message to one target message) in the message mapper, all is fine but if I try to create a multi mapping, I get an error. The process is:
a) I have a message mapping with one target message, defined as an External Definition.
b) I then go to Signature tab and add a second target message as an External Definition
c) Click back to Definition tab
d) Get the error "Object XXXXX | YYYYY not found" - where XXXXX is the external def name and YYYYY is the namespace (the SWCV namespace that is, not the XML namespace)
This only seems to happen with External Definitions which are autogenerated and I strongly suspect that is has to do with the fact that the tool that generates them always does so without an XML namespace. I have not proved this though (other Ext Defs with namespaces work for multi-mappings but that is not the only difference so I can't be sure that is the issue but have a strong hunch. This problem did not occur in 7.0.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks,
Chris

Hi,
This would not be of much help but, I was able to encounter this issue in XI 3.0.
What we did was to manually edit the XSD and add a namespace to it. I'm not sure if PI 7.1 is able to handle mutiple namespaces, so we limited it to this value <xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" elementFormDefault="qualified" attributeFormDefault="unqualified"> and made sure that this value is used for all the External Definitions used in the multi-mapping.

Error in Multi-mapping without BPM

Hi frnds,
I am doing a scenario File-XI-File. I am using the multi-splitting thing in the Message mapping. I have taken care of all the occurance's and "enhanced" thing in the IR and ID resp. I m using SP16. I want to avoid BPM.
But therez sme error cming up. When I check the MONI, its shwing "No messages created from split mapping" and when I test my interface using the Test Configuration in the ID, its shwing error in the Receiver Determination -- "HTTP connection to ABAP Runtime failed. Error: 403 Forbidden"
I have checked most of the blogs and forum suggestions. I have checked the ICF activations as well ...
So, do come back to me with your valuable suggestions, and I will award them points, if they really help me out.
Thanks and regards.
Neetesh

Hi Neetesh,

When I check the MONI, its shwing "No messages created from split mapping"
For this, Can you check the source XML. Does it contain Tags like <messages> .. If yes, you need to remove them from your source XML.
If i am right, you have copied the XML from the TEST tab of the message mapping and pasted it in a notepad and saved it without making any changes at all..... Just do as i have mentioned above and i am sure you will no more get that error message in your MONI....
Also go through this weblog which talks about multi-mapping without BPM,
