N:1 Mapping - W/ O BPM

We r on SPS 18.
Can we do N:1 Mapping - W/ O BPM.

Narayana,
Your requirement is completely different from Naveen's. His requirement was to map different msg types/ N number of same msg to single msg type. But in your case, you are having a single msg as input and single msg as output. You need to map different elements in source to a single target node. For this purpose, as I already replied in your thread, use an advanced UDF that will take N elements from source as input.

How to create Rules with Flex Field mapping in the bpm worklist

I Have created a flex field label and was able to map to the flex field attributes .
But when i try to create a rules , I don't see the label or the flex attributes in the task payload .
Can someone please help is understanding how to create Rules with Flex Field mapping in the bpm worklist .
Even I am also searching for any scripts which will take the flex fields prompts and can directly create a label in the bpm worklist .
Any pointers or suggestion is highly appreciated .

Hi,
SE38 -> Enter program
Select Variants button and display. In the next screen, enter a variant name, (If not existing , press Create to create new one), else click on Change.
Now the selection screen will display with a button "Variant Attributes" at the top.
Click on that button.
In the next screen, go to the selection variable column of the date field. Press F4 or drop down and select 'D' for date maintenance.
In the column "Name of Variable (Input Only Using F4)" press F4 or drop down, select whichever kind of date calculation you want and save the variant.
Now whenever you run the prgrm with this variant, date will be displayed by default.

Mapping Errors in BPM

Hi All,
How can the mapping errors in BPM be handeld implicitly (without the use of Exception Handling Branch)
Regards,
Anurag

Hi Anurag.
Handling the mapping exceptions in BPM could be possible using the Alerts.
Go through this blog for Alert Configuration:

Message mapping when using BPM?

We are doing a test to see if you can do a split of a string using standard functions, UDF or BPM.
We discovered that standard function has some of the functionality but if you are going to solve the problem that way the solution will be very complex. You will get no flexi bility in how to design the string and all the feilds will have to have fix length. So Standard functions are not the solution for us.
UDF works realy great. Write your java function and map it and everything are running.
We wont to test BPM as well. and i just started to look at it and how to solve it. I'm a newbee on BPM and for start I'm wondering how the message mapping should look to use in the BPM?
Sourcemessage looks as follow:
<Header>
   <Line>
      <SegmentA>   0 to unbounded
      <SegmentB>   0 to unbounded
      <SegmentC>   0 to unbounded
SegmentA contains a value to be copied to a segment in the target.
SegmentB contains a date to be copied to a targetelement.
SegmentC contains a string that we want to split into several elements in the target structure.
Targetmessage looks as follow:
<Header>
   <LineA>   1 to 1   (Will get the value from SegmentA in the sourcemessage.)
   <LineB>   1 to 1   (Will get the value from SegmentB in the sourcemessage.)
   <LineC>   0 to unbounded
      <ElementA>   0 to 1   (Will get a part of the string from SegmentC in the sourcemessage.)
      <ElementB>   0 to 1   (Will get a part of the string from SegmentC in the sourcemessage.)
      <ElementC>   0 to 1   (Will get a part of the string from SegmentC in the sourcemessage.)
To able to get the messages into BPM I need a interfacemapping and to do the interfacemapping I need to do a messagemapping. How should that messagemapping be configured?

> Now i want to try to replace that UDF with a BPM (Integration Process).
An UDF is part of a mapping and an Integration Process is used if you want to realize a more complex scenario then sending a message from System A to System B. In BPM you can do things like collecting messages, use timeouts, ...
But if you want to use a mapping in a BPM you define your mapping in your Integration Repository (like in a standard scenario without BPM) and then you can use the mapping in the Integration Process.
That's why i say it's maybe possible to realize your mapping without UDF (for example only with standard functions), but it makes no difference if you use BPM.
If you want to try finding a solution without UDF, i would suggest to open a new thread for this question.
Hope this helps.

Handling Java Mapping Exception in BPM Transformation step

Dear SDN members,
I have developed a File to File scenario using BPM as follows.
Step 1:
Sender file adapter picks the file from FTP server and using file content conversion mapped to XML structure.
Step 2:
BPM will recieve the XML payload , immediately in the block a transformation step is called with an interface mapping. In the interface mapping a Java mapping will be executed with certain data validations on the XML payload. If found any invalid data is there a suitable excptions will be raised . Here the transformation step should be catch the error and control should be sent to exception block to place the recived file as a error file.
else if the transformation is executed with out any issues, the file will be placed in success folder.
But in the transformation step, though java mapping thorwing exceptions, the control not going into exception block, instead it is continuing to next step i.e the file is placing in the success folder.
Can anybody tell me, how to handle the exceptions raised in java mapping in the BPM transformation step?
I have refered all the SDN blogs, forums related to this issue, but could not able to find the answer. Please help me?
Thanks & Regards
Vijayanand Poreddy

Hi Abhishek,
Once the file is picked from FTP server then sent to BPM,
the BPM steps
Step1:
-->Recive
Step 2:
Block Starts
   ---Block Start: New Transaction
   ---Block End : New Transaction
   ---Exception : Error
Step 3
Inside the Block
Transformation Step
   --Interface Mapping: <IM Name>
   -- Check box ticked for Create New Transcation
   -- Exceptions
      --System Error: Error
   --Source Message: Message recieved in Recieve Step (Step 1)
Step 4:
--Send
--Source Maessage: Output message from the Transformation Step
Block End
Inserted a Exception Branch for Block
Steps inside Exception Branch
-Control
    --Throw Alert
   --Alert Name
In the above scenario
The transformation step is not throwing error even my interface mapping going to error. The same transformation step if i place outside the block next to recieve step, then the transformation step is throwing error and BPM stops the process.
Also, when transformation is inside the block, i have used the exception handling on the send step inside the block. here it is throwing error as the source message payload is empty. because in the preceding transformation step the interface mapping is failed due to which there the target will not be filled. But even though it is not entered into exception block.

1:N mapping without using BPM

Hi All,
I am facing a problem in 1:N mapping without using BPM...
I would explain regarding it first...
Scenarion is from SAP > XI> 3files
I have 4 XSD's 1) one is Source Idoc XSD (all xsd's imported to External def.s)
                      2) target file 1 XSD
                       3) target file 2 XSD
                      4) target file 3 xsd
I have created 4 message interfaces one is Outbound and rest 3 are Inbound
and also i have done mapping : In mapping messages tab i have mentioned the 3 XSD(External definitions) and done the mapping as required...
But now my problem is how to proceed with Interface mapping ...
should i create 3 interface mappings ( ithink no) ... but in IM i am able to create for only one taget Interface .. how to with 3 XSD's ...
Any solution is always thankfull...
and Points are surely rewarded....
Thanks and Regards,
Sridhar Reddy

Hi Sridhar,
Receiver Determinatiion: one Receiver without Condition (Service that has all the Three inbound Interfaces).
Then in Interface Determination choose enhanced and choose ur Interface Mapping that has the Multi Mapping.
It will automatically provide the three inbound Interfaces and u can create ur receiver agreements.

Sequential mapping without using BPM

I have a requirement where i need to do a sequential mapping without using BPM. IDoc to file is the first mapping.A few fields of the IDoc are transformed in this mapping. Output of this first one should contain the transformed as well as rest of the fields of the IDoc as it is coz they will be used in the second mapping.
Is this possible any way?

yes soumen...u can do it.in the interface mapping option is there to do that...
but u can do it in a single mapping!!!
go thro' this general Idoc to file scenario...u may get some help

How to check data after mapping for BPM if the mapping done outside BPM ?

Hi.
I have simple scenario BPM. Proxy -
> JDBC. I have 1 message mapping in between PROXY and JDBC.
and i have put the mapping outside the BPM (i didn' use transformation step). In case error happen. how i can see the data after the mapping ? i am always got difficulty to check the data if i have mapping outside bpm.
Thank you
Fernand

Hi
In case error happen. how i can see the data after the mapping ?
You have used mapping in interface determination of corresponding receiver determination. In transaction SXMB_MONI, open message corresponding to that receiver determination. There in left hand side you will see IS pipeline steps. There if you want to see message payload that is input to Mapping than see payload of any pipeline step before Request Message Mapping and test it in Design. If mapping fails you can see trace of the same step.
Request Message Mapping ---> SOAP Header ---> Trace
There you can see where your mapping failed.
And as rohit replied you can also get message from RWB.
For further clarification revert back to us.

Mapping inside/outside BPM

Hi All,
I would like to know the flow when mapping is inside BPM and when it is outside BPM.
And also about the configuration steps in either cases.
Thanks,
Vishal

Hi,
Try to avoid using transformation step in BPM, executing mapping program in business process engine not advisable.
Try to execute the mapping program in Interface determination level, in this case mapping will execute in Integration engine.
Flow :
Sender Communication Channel pick ups the message and send it to Adapter engine ,from there internal XI adapter will take the message from AE and send it IE,when you use BPM ,BPE engine come in to picture to execute/process the message, if you use Transformation step , then mapping program will be executed in Business Process Engine.
After execution of mapping program in BPEN then message will be send to IE, from there to AE.
Outbound service Interface---sender abstract interface-receiver abstract interfaceinbound interface (some times).
AE-IEBPEIEAE

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.

Henrique.

Alerts in case of XSLT Mapping failure without BPM

Dear All,
We are working on IDOC - SOAP Scenario and mapping is through XSLT Mapping.
when the Vendor number field in IDOC is coming blank/invalid, the mapping should fail and an email alert should go to business.
This IDOC-SOAP is Asynchronous and not using any BPM. So can we raise a alerts withut using BPM.
I have gone through some blogs but I can see the alerts in Inbox but where as I want the alert through EMAIL.
Any pointers are highly appreciated.
Regards,
Srini

Dear Srinivas,
When you want the Alert to be send through email,then you need to configure the required mentioned below.
1.In SU01 ,Assign the corresponding Email ID for the Recipient of the ALERT.
2. In , RWB>ALERT INBOX> PERSONALIZATION--> Go to Time Independent Delivery and check the Email option.
3. Go to the transaction code SCOT,INT->SMTP and mention the corresponding Mail Host and Port in SMTP Address.Then select the set in the Internet of supported Address Types and give mail address in the Address area.
Note: Check whether Node is use is checked.
You can find the mails which are pending/failed/success in the SOST Transaction code.
Check if you have access for this configuration.Otherwise get help from Basis team.

1:N mapping without using BPM -- IDOC to multiple files

Hi all,
I am facing a problem while sending multiple files,
I need to send files ( File1, File2 or FIle3) ...
I was able to successfully send the first 2 files and along with it the 3rd file is being created without any data... How to stop this file( either file2 or file 3 should be created) in creating..
I have done the sceanrio like this, )ALL the source and target files are XSD's imported)
In the Message Mapping <b>Messages Tab</b>
<b>Source is AFS_DELVRY03 occurence is 1,
Target files
rootI8 occurence is 1,
rootI9 occurence is 0...1,
rootIB occurence is 0...1</b>
I have done all the maping part , problem is all 3 files are being created(eventhough 2nd or 3rd has no data) , I need rootIB, either rootI9 or rootIB based on condition,
So any one has done the similar scenario, If please suggest me how to hadnle so that only 2nd or 3rd file should be created,
In Interface Determination i have selected the extended option also...
Should i do any specific handling in the Configuration part or should i create more than one mapping?..
U r suggestions are welcome and will be rewarded with points,
Regards,
sridhar

Venu,
Using a BPM, you can do the mapping / Split as needed and then send the files individually, using a Sens Step as needed. There are multiple ways in which this can be done with a BPM.
But, for a solution without a BPM, as the requirement is such that only 2 of the 3 target messages need to be created, multimapping would not work and the need for conditional routing occurs.So, this would require additional mappings.
The solution is either use a BPM or do the logic using Conditional Routing. Ofcourse the second solution requires 3 mapping programs , but you are avoiding a BPM which can cause a perfromance bottle neck.
If perfromance cannot become a bottle neck, then using BPM would make much more sense , but again it all boils down to the exact requirements and the feasibilty of the solutions!

Debug ABAP Multi Mapping in a BPM

Hi Guys,
My scenario is as follows.
1) Send IDOCS from SAP.
2) Loop start
3) Collect in BPM based on some correlation
4) append to a multi line container
5) Loop ends at certain condition
6) Transform using interface mapping which is in this case ABAP mapping.
7) Send the merged message
I am facing a mapping error, but could not figure out what it is, it says
"Parsing error after mapping: unexpected symbol: '<' (line 0, column 53)"
My question is how to debug ABAP Mapping when it is BPM.
Things already done and did not work
1) HTTP break point does not work as BPM is run by WF-BATCH user and it is not a dialog user, so debug window does not appear when the mapping is running
2) I cannnot use SXI_MAPPING_TEST transaction as any of BPM cannot be selected on the first screen, without which it does not allow you to debug.
Please help me how to go into a debugger when my Multi ABAP mapping is executed in the system.
Thanks in advance,
Regards
Sujan

Hi Sujan,
Try debugging with this approach if possible.
1. Unregister your queue from TC SMQR
2. Execute your scenario
3. Check the Queue and Debug your LUW by pressing Debug LUW.
4. Set the breakpoint at your mapping program and test.
5. After completion Register your queue again.
Pls see the document more more details.

Message Mapping Error in BPM

when message mapping, if the length of source field is longer than specified length, I need to output these kinds of messages. what is the solution?

Hi,
        try using a user defined function written in java where u can check for the condition and raise a exception.
           if(sourcefield.length()>16)
S.O.P("The Invoice Number is greater than 16 characters");
or
   using a BPM where u can check whether Invoice number is greater than 16 characters and if it is true then raise an exception and send the message through BPM.
