Multiple Idocs to Multiple files

Hi,
I have a Idoc to File Scenario, where I get multiple Idocs and I need to generate multiple files with different file names
Assume I am using file XML port at SAP to collect the Idocs.
Target files are generated based on two field values (Delivery Type and Shipping Point)from Idoc.
Eg:
I have three Idocs at a time.
Idoc1 has Delivery Type = EL & Shipping Point = 2550 --> Target file name is test1.bpr
Idoc2 has Delivery Type = LF & Shipping Point = 2551 --> Target file name is test2.bps
Idoc3 has Delivery Type = NL & Shipping Point = 2552 --> Target file name is test3.bpr and test3.bps
1) Does Mult-mapping support in the case... ?
2) Do I need to change the Idoc Occurrence 0 to unbounded ?
3) What will be the Occurrences in the interface Mapping
4) Can i generate Multiple fileswith different names at one time as specified above using Dynamic Configuration?
5) What will be the Target Structure Occurrence ?
Thanks,
Varun

Hi,
Though I am using Multi - Mapping only 1 file is being created. I tested with two Idocs, where 2 files should be created.
In Moni, under Payload, I can see 2 sets of Main Document and SubMainDocument been created.
How to generate 2 files/multiple files ?
If Dynamic Configuration is not supported in case of Multi Mapping, If I want to use Variable Substitution, then What will be the Target path to be defined in the comm channel since Multi mapping is there. I am trying to define for Action field. Does Variable Substitution support Attributes in the aml payload ?
My target structure
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns1:Root xmlns:ns1="urn:ap:xi:dwn:Logi:100">
- <Shipment Company="XX" Warehouse="01" ErpOrder="0830001212">
<Action>0830001212_2551.bpr</Action>
<Customer Customer="DEMO" Company="DEMO" />
</Shipment>
</ns1:Root>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<root>
<Shipment>
<Action>0830001212_2551.bpr</Action>
</Shipment>
</root>
Shipment Occurrence is 0 to unbounded and above root I have Messages and message1 node (since Multi mapping)..
so How do I specify Path for variable substitution in this case, i tried all possibilities, but i am getting error as
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: The following variable was not found in the message payload: var2: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: The following variable was not found in the message payload: var2
I am working on PI 7.0 SP 21
Thanks

Problems with multiple idocs in one file ( Inbound file )

HI,
Thanks in Advance for your suggestions.. Highly appreciated.
We have problems with multiple IDocs in one file.
We are using XIB ( Amtrix ) as Middleware to receive the files.
Curretenly When the file contains one IDoc then there is no problem. IDoc is created and everything is ok.
If file contains two IDocs ( for example two messages ORDERS and DELVERY ) then it is creating two IDocs but both IDocs contains ORDERS plus DELIVERY segements information. That is the problem. Some how SAP unable to differentiate the IDocs in the file.. But it knows that how many idocs are there in the file..because it is creating exact number of idocs.
We are using TRFC port ... Do I need to change it to File port..
When we have more than one idoc do we need set any parameter in the file ...

Thanks for the swift response. Always ideas are useful.
As of now , Middleware cannot split the file.
Thing is SAP is creating two Idocs with different message types. Problem is First IDoc contains ORDERS message type but also DELIVERY segments as well. Second IDoc with DELIVERY message tyoe but ORDERS segments as well... This is the problem... I think we are missing some field activation in file for EDIDC record.
As far as I know file port supports the number of IDocs in one file.. Hope TRFC port also supports that

Mapping from File to IDoc with multiple Idocs and multiple line items?

Hi All,
Need some help with mapping, requirement as below: I have a flat file with multiple records, need to create multiple idocs per each separate order in flat file with as many line items.
Order_1 field-1 field-2 field-3 field-4
Order_1 field-1 field-2 field-3 field-4
Order_2 field-1 field-2 field-3 field-4
Order_2 field-1 field-2 field-3 field-4
Order_3 field-1 field-2 field-3 field-4
Order_3 field-1 field-2 field-3 field-4
I have imported IDoc changed to 1:Unbounded, able to create multiple Idocs based on separate order from flat file.
Order_No - removeContexts - splitByValue(ValueChanged) - collapseContexts - exists - creatIf - IDOC
Now I am having hard time creating a line item segment E1EDP01. I want to have Idoc created below way:
IDoc-1 (Order_1)
E1EDP01
E1EDP01
IDoc-2 (Order_2)
E1EDP01
E1EDP01
IDoc-3 (Order_3)
E1EDP01
E1EDP01
I am getting multiple IDocs created. Please help me to create mutlieple line items under each Idoc. Please be speficic about the node funtions to be used, because I tried many times with different combinations, didn't work.
Regards,
N@v!n

Hi Navin,
Create your source structure like below
<Order>1 to unbounded
    <Order_No>
    <field1>
    <field2>
    <field3>
    <field4>
</oder>
to create mutiple IDocs based on order number,use below logic
Order_No-->removecontexts--->sort--->splitbyvalue(Valuechange)--->collapsecontext-->Idoc
use below logic for E1EDPO1,
Order----->removecontexts------>
                                                                                formatByexample------>E1EDP01
Order_No-->removecontexts--->sort--->splitbyvalue(Valuechange)-------->
try above logic and let me know if you any issues.

Multiple IDocs - XI - Flat file

We are looking at a scenario to send multiple IDOCS from SAP to Flat File. We implemented this using the Collect Pattern in BPM, merge all the IDocs into a single message and write it in a file. But is there any a way to avoid BPM and still be able to send multiple IDOCS in a package to be written onto one file?
Thanks
Vinoda

Hi,
I think this is possible using PACKAGING.
Check this note <b>814393</b> on Service Market Place.
<i>You want to create or process an XI message with multiple instances of an IDoc (of the same IDoc or extension type) in the mapping.
The payload of the relevant message is to have the following the format:
<IDOCTYP>
<IDOC>...</IDOC>
<IDOC>...</IDOC>
</IDOCTYP>
To be able to process these messages in the message mapping of the source system and to create them in the target system, you need an XML schema for the IDOC that allows multiple instances of the IDOCtag.
If the relevant IDOC is imported into the Integration Repository, the system generates an XML schema that sets the number of instances of the IDOC tag to exactly one.
The following describes how you can manually change the XML schema so that multiple instances of the IDOC tag are allowed, and how you can make the modified XML schema available to an adequate message mapping.
Other terms
IDoc packaging
Reason and Prerequisites
The relevant IDoc is imported into the Integration Repository.
Solution
1) Log on to the Integration Repository.
2) Open the relevant IDoc in the object editor.
3) Select the "Export XSD" menu option in the "Tools" menu.
4) In the subsequent dialog box, assign a file name and save the data to the hard disk of your local PC.
5) Open the file that you have saved in step 4 in an adequate editor (for example, Notepad) for editing.
6) Locate the first entry: <xsd:element name="IDOC" type="<
Idocname>"> and add the following expression, maxOccurs="unbounded", between the value of the type attribute and the closing angular bracket.
Example:
<xsd:element name="IDOC" type="ADR2MAS.ADR2MAS02"
maxOccurs="unbounded">
7) Save the modified file to the hard disk of your local PC.
8) In the message mapping, use the file saved in step 7 instead of the imported IDoc by using the "Import XML or XSD" function in the mapping tool to select the source or target messages.

Multiple IDocs-XI-Single File Scenario

Hi All,
   We need to send multiple IDocs from R/3 to XI and then to a single file using File Adapter. Please help us with your suggestions on how to proceed using a simple solution.
Regards,
Peter

I made a program that solved the issue of collecting the IDOC in to one file.
1. The partent profile should be setup for collect idocs
2. Make a report that will select and dispatch the idocs
seudo code:
select tables with select criteria:
edidc (idoc control)
edid4 (idoc data)
one yo have made you selection into internal tables
it_final_edidc
it_final_edid4
*you can apply rules and data tranformations, eg. PEXR2002 batch per payment type.
CALL FUNCTION 'EDI_OUTPUT_NEW'
           EXPORTING
                onl_option = 'B'
            ERROR_FLAG = ' '
            NAST_RECORD =
           TABLES
                i_edidc     = it_final_edidc
                i_edidd     = it_final_edid4
           EXCEPTIONS
                OTHERS      = 1.
" EDI mesages dispatched
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
    COMMIT WORK.
    CALL FUNCTION 'DEQUEUE_ALL'
       EXPORTING
            _SYNCHRON = ' '
         EXCEPTIONS
              OTHERS    = 1.
That work like a charm when writting the IDOC to a single file.
But when I send the IDOCS to XI like XML-IDOC I still receive one transaction per IDOC.
if anyone know how to solve that, let me know.

Hi,
You have to MessageTransformBean Module.
The MessageTransformBean module enables conversion of XML files to flat files and vice versa. You can use this module in the sender and receiver communication channels.
In receiver communication channel, specify MessageTransformBean module before standard adapter module CallSapAdapter and use
Module Name: localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean
Module Key : XML2Plain
Please see the below links, it might be useful to you.

Create multiple idoc with multiple receivers based on value mapping table

Hi,
Scenario:
Step1 : sender sends a finance doc iin the form of an idoc. This idoc will have multiple line items based on profit center. Do determine the value of receiving comp code(header field) n receiving system(logical sys name) value mapping table has to be used.
Solution so far: I can put an rfc lookup for fetching receiving comp code from mapping table with i/p paraameter as profit center . And split the incoming idoc based on comp code value by using split by value. Now I need your advise 2 take this further.
Issue 1 : say the incoming idoc has 4 line seg wid 4 diff profit center
Profit center.       Rec comp code.   Recv sys
P1.                       C1.                        R1
P2.                       C2.                        R1
PS.                       C2.                        R1
P3.                       C3.                        R2
Nw using this info, I want 3 diff idocs to be created for each unique comp code.
Idoc 1 : for C1 wid one line item + 1 for reconsilation ( to be generated additionally)
Idoc2 : for C2 wid 2 line items + 1 for reconsilation
Idoc 3: for C3 wid 1 line item + 1 for reconsilation
Idoc 1 and idoc 2 shud be sent to R1.
Idoc 3 shud be sent to R2.
Kindly advise on this

Hi experts,
U all r pretty close, but let me put this more clearly.
Step1: create multiple idocs based on unique comp code - I'm able to do this using rfc lookup n split by value. So I get 3 idocs each for c1, c2 n c3.
Nw as per the values from value mapping table.
Idoc for c1 contains 1 line seg.
Idoc for c2 contains 2 line segs.
N idoc for c3 contains 1 line seg.
steps2 n 3, where I do not have a confirmed solution yet n need ur advise.
Step 2 : for each idoc generated I need 2 create n additional segment, mapping 4 which will be based on the values in the original segments for that idoc.
In d above scenario, idoc for c1 contains 1 line seg, nw I want 2 add one more seg to it. The amount and pisting key values in this segment wud be calculated based on the values of the amount and posting key belonging to the original segment in this idoc.
Similarly for idoc for c2 there are 2 segs, nw I need one more, means 3 in allm
Hence for idoc for c3, 1 orig already present + 1 more. = total 2.
Nw I need ur advise on how 2 generate this additional seg in each idocm
Step 3: when all dese 3 idocs are generated, ( in this case itz 3, in real time it can be n), I need to find their respective receivers using rfc lookup n then based on the receiver send 2 resp recvng systm
Nw how do I do this?
Please explain with examples if possible 4 bettr understanding.

hey
u have to create 3 message mappings and 3 interface mapping.
step 4 and 5 say it clearly
Step 4:
Create three Message Mapping to convert Outbound type of IDOC into Abstract type so that we can collect it in our BPM. Message Mapping for conversion of three different types of IDOCs to their Abstract type are as follows:
MM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM1_to_NOM1_ABS
(ii) MM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM2_to_NOM2_ABS
(iii) MM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM3_to_NOM3_ABS
Below mapping is for N:1 transformation. (Here input will be having three different types of Abstract IDOCs and target will be having Abstract Target File type)
(iv) MM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM_to_NOM_ABS
Step 5:
Create the Interface Mapping as follows.
(a) Interface mapping for IDOC outbound to IDOC abstract.
IM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM1_to_NOM1_ABS (Message Mapping is used here)
IM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM2_to_NOM2_ABS (Message Mapping (ii) is used here)
IM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM3_to_NOM3_ABS (Message Mapping (iii) is used here)
(b) Interface mapping for collected IDOCs of Abstract type to the file of Abstract Asynchronous type.
IM_ISU_UKGAS_NOM_to_NOM_ABS (Message Mapping (iv) is used here)

Collection of multiple IDOCS in one file to send once a day

Hello,
There are number of documents created for a vendor and we need to send the IDOCs for all the orders in one file collectively. The transfer should happen at the end of day.
Currently we are using correspondance mechanism for it, but it creates one file for each idoc.
Is there any standard solution to combine the IDOCS ?
Thanks and rgds,
Anand

Hello Anand
I have used the approach described in [SAP Network Blog: Collecting IDocs without using BPM|Collecting IDocs without using BPM] to collect IDocs.

Collection of multiple idocs into a file

while activating the BPM,i m getting error "Expression must not return a multiline value" in transformation step of BPM at the source message.My source message is Abstract asynchronous type idoc which i m sending into BPM and value is container variable of same interface type and which is of multiline type.Can,anyone help me to solve out this error in BPM?

ref: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/08/16163ff8519a06e10000000a114084/content.htm
Use that as a checklist !!!
Also make sure that you have provided the message (that needs to be collected) (in message mapping and interface mapping) as 0-unbounded

Report for multiple IDOCs with multiple POs

Hi,
In our project PO goes out to vendor through EDI 850 and Outbound IDOC is generated for this.Some times its failed due to connection issue at vendors end. so sometimes we need to send PO nos and its related IDOC nos to EDI team as per their request.I can get IDOC number for a particular PO from WE09.But that transaction is for single PO i belief.But sometimes there are 20-30 pos and if we want to search its related IDOC at a single time then how can i search this in SAP?Is there any standard SAP functionality or i have go custom report?

you need to copy the idoc failed idoc numbers, and segment name in which your PO resides
Go to table EDID4, pass Segment name and idoc numbers, you will find all related PO numbers in
Application data column, please note this column is a merged column
You will need to download it as unconverted Text , call in Excel -Text column and get the records
There is no other easy way for this
Thanks

Multiple Idocs (DEBMAS06) into one single file

Hi All,
Multiple Idocs(DEBMAS06) are sent from SAP in bulk to be sent to FTP server via XI...(Cannot use Append the file as The structure is with Header,Detail(all the idoc details) and Trailer)
I have seen different threads which speaks about the same,
But Please suggest me the best approach to proceed with this kind of scenario...
Multiple IDocs -> XI -> Flat file which is speaking about BPM and also Packaging(SAP note 814393)
and https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/30ea2fdf-f047-2a10-d3a2-955a634bde6b
(How Tou2026 Send Multiple IDocs Within One XI Message)
I prefer not to use BPM... but if required then....
Please suggest me which is the best approach to proceed with it..
Thanks and Regards,
Sridhar Reddy

Hi ,
I had tried the scenario Multiple IDOC's coming from R/3 and send all of them into a Single File
But it did not work...
Of course i changed as Micahel mentioned in
The specified item was not found.
(Collect and make pack size to 50) but still the idocs are posting as 50 messages in XI and 50 files are being created ...
But as per his remarks we need customization which is very difficult...
And also i checked Michaels blog
The specified item was not found.
But this is dicussing reverse of my scenario...
and finally i am thinking of going with the stefens weblog...
Collecting IDocs without using BPM
Can any one please suggest any other best way to handle this...
Instead of going for BPM i am implementing as Stefen suggested ... This is because we have many such interfaces where SAP sends collective idocs....
