Hi,
Please send me example program for outbound interface to maintain file in application server.
Thanks
Ali

Hi,
the code should look like below.
declare:
filepath_name TYPE rlgrap-filename,
internal table itab.
**Populate data to itab.
OPEN DATASET filepath_name FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
      IF sy-subrc = 0.
        LOOP AT itab.
          TRANSFER itab TO filepath_name .
        ENDLOOP.
      ELSE.
        MESSAGE i001(00) WITH 'Error writing to file in remote computer'.
      ENDIF.
      CLOSE DATASET filepath_name .

How to do an inbound and outbound interfacing using UTL_FILE ?

dear members,
How can we do interfacing from a legacy system to oracle and vice versa using the UTL_FILE package. I mean how to do an INBOUND and OUTBOUND interfacing using utl_file.

sandeep

in/
file/
bad/
done/
out/
file/
bad/
done/
I would start by ftping / putting the file in in/file/ folder, once ftp has completed move it to complete/ folder and process the file. If errorrs are generated move the file over to bad folder. If completed successfully move over to done folder.
Having said that you would use UTL_FILE_DIR init parameter to set your directory.
ALTER SYSTEM SET UTL_FILE_DIR='directory1','directory2' scope=spfile;
Then you would use the regular utl_file packages to read / write to the files.
UTL_FILE.FOPEN and so on.

Hi Sandeep,
I do not know if I got your question correct.
Here is my understanding of it, pls correct me if I am wrong:
You want to read from and write to the OS from inside the DB? Right?
There are differnt waysa to do so, depanding on your Oracle version:
1. you can use the initialization parameter UTL_FILE_DIR to specify a directory on OS where you can read from and write to through the package UTL_FILE.
2. You can use a directory object in the DB to manage read write access to the OS. This is also usable with the package UTL_FILE as location where to read from and write to.
=> CREATE DIRECTORY my_dir AS '/home/oracle/my_directory';
GRANT read , write ON DIRECTORY my_dir TO scott;
SELECT * FROM dba_directories;
You need CREATE ANY DIRECTORY system privilege for this.
You can use directory objects also for external tables.
With these you can read from flat files in teh directory on OS with a select statement as if it were a table inside the DB.
Does this go into the direction you were thinking of?
Hope it helps for the first.

Lutz

Outbound interface using ABAP Proxy

Hi Guys,
I am trying to create an interface between a Z table and XI using ABAP Proxy. I suggested file based interface, but client is insisting using ABAP proxy. Z table is in IS-Retail side.
I will appreciate is somebody can share a program to do this.
Any advise/guidance is appreciated.
Thanks,

Hi There
From your subject line i can see that you want to develop an outbound proxy which means you want to send data to XI from your SAP custom table. That means you need to extract all the information from your Z-table and send it to XI via proxy.
If my understanding is correct then what you need to do is :
1.Ask your XI team team to generate a message interface for you of type 'outbound' and include the structure in the way they want you to send data to them.
2.Once the message interface is created by them , you can generate the same in transaction SPROXY . Search for your interface namespace and then right click
on it and say 'CREATE' . Give the appropriate package and prefix to it.Generate the proxy, save and activate
3. Now you can create a report and then according to the structure generated by XI , you can popluate your internal table to be passed back.
4. Call the method of the proxy in your report and send the data to XI.
I can give you an example of how to do this:
suppose you have built up an internal table by extracting data from your Z-table .Lets say it is tbl_output.
In your report you need to trigger the proxy method as follows:
Note: i am assuming i am triggering an asynchronous proxy method from my report:
DATA:lo_senddata TYPE REF TO CL_DATA_OUT,
 lo_system_fault TYPE REF TO cx_ai_system_fault,
 lo_root TYPE REF TO cx_root.
ls_output-output_file-data[] = tbl_data[].
CREATE OBJECT lo_senddata
TRY.
* call the asynchronous method of the proxy and send the data
 CALL METHOD lo_senddata->execute_asynchronous
 EXPORTING
 output = ls_output.
* get the system exceptions and display the error text
 CATCH cx_ai_system_fault INTO lo_system_fault.
 WRITE:/ 'System Error:'(E01),
 lo_system_fault->errortext.
 RETURN.
* get the root exception and display the textid value
 CATCH cx_root INTO lo_root.
 WRITE:/ 'System Error:'(E01),
 lo_root->textid.
 RETURN.
 ENDTRY.
COMMIT WORK.
Note: 1. CL_DATA_OUT is the message interface class.
 2. ls_output is the output structure to be sent back to XI and data
 is an internal table with the same structure as tbl_data.
 3. It is very imp to catch exceptions as i have shown u above.
Please let me know if you are a little clear or you need some more clarifications on this.

Issue with external WSDL in own Outbound interface using SOAP UI

Hello,
this is the issue:
a) Imported an external WSDL to PI as external definition
b) Added external definition to a sync. Service interface
c) Completed configuration and created a WSDL from the sender agreement in Directory (this is PI 7.1)
d) imported the WSDL from c) to soap UI which we are using for testing interfaces
 (already successful with other sync interface where the WSDL from c) contains a message type created in PI
e) testing this interface results in an error:
Error message in MONI:

Is there any restriction with external definitions to be used in PI which could be the reason for this strange behaviour?
The implementation contained a message type created in PI earlier which was running successful!
The problem came up with the external definition!
Thank you for your help!
Best regards
Dirk

Hi,
the problem is not the mapping as it is 1:1 with the same message on both sides.
But when I replace the "com"s with "ns0" and "props" with "ns0:props" in the request in soap UI
the payload will be accepted and mapping is successful!
So the issue is about the modification soap UI is doing on the imported WSDL.
a) Generated request in soap UI from imported WSDL: FAILS in PI!!!!

b) Modified request in soap UI from imported WSDL: WILL BE PROCESSED IN PI

</soapenv:Envelope>
But is there any possibility to avoid this effect in soap UI?

How to call Outbound interface using report programs

Hi experts,
 i want to call outbound i/f prog using 2 report programs...one report prg passing 2 parameters to outbond i/f prg & another report prg simply calling the outbond i/f prg... either report1 or report2 call this outbond i/f prg.
for instance,
1.report1 has following parameters
 param: tknum,vbeln
2.report2 does not have any parameters
 No param
3.outbound i/f prog for some calculation
points will be given..............
thanks in advance,
regards
vijay

Hi vijay,
 To call a program in another program you have to use the Keyword Submit.
EX; Report zprg.
 SUBMIT zprg1.
 So, where you require a program you can call that program by this keyword.

Oracle EBS Inbound/Outbound Interface build using Oracle SOA 11g

Hi SOA Guru's,
I am very much new to SOA 11g, could you guy's help me in understanding "How I can build any Oracle EBS Inbound/Outbound interface using Oracle SOA 11g"
It will be great if anybody explain me with any example script/screen shot/document.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Pankaj

I don't have any experience with ebs, but i assume it works like this.
In the composite editor you will find a list adapters at the right..over here you will also find the oracle applications (ebs) adapter.
This will be the component for you which will communicate with the ebs packages.
you need to drag this adapter on the swim lane, and after that you should create the composite application like the way it's described in the tutorials Oracle supplies, put a mediator component in the middle and expose this interface (drag the line to the left swim line)
Hope it's a bit clear like this ?
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/integration.1111/e10224/fod_intro2.htm
this should make a few things clear too

When To Use Inbound and Outbound Interfaces?

I use an Inbound message type when i am receiving some data and outbound message type when i push data out of the XI box??Is this correct..
And how to decide when to use a Inbound and Outbound Interface?

Hi Barik,
I use an Inbound message type when i am receiving some data and outbound message type when i push data out of the XI box??Is this correct..
WRONG!!!
outbound message->XI->Inbound message...
(sender system)->XI->(reciever system)
remeber: when u r sending some data to XI u send it using outbound interface.
and when u r sending some data from Xi to other system u use inbound interface...
Hope ur doubt is clear!!

Adding UNION Dataset on EXISTING INTERFACE using SDK

hi
i am facing issue while adding UNION dataset and Mappings on Existing interface using ODI SDK.
if anyone done before, please tell me how to do it.
i am getting Unique constraint error.
thanks
nidhi

Hi Michael Rainey, Unique constraint error was solved, but i am getting some other issue, here is the detail.
i am trying to a add new Dataset(for Union Operation) using ODI SDK on existing Interface.
Scenario:
Dataset1 :
Source DataStore : W_PLM_LISTENTRY_PS
Column Name : ENTRYVALUE , ENTRY_ID
Filter : id=1000
Dataset 2:
Source DataStore : W_PLM_LISTENTRY_PS
Column Name : ENTRYVALUE, ENTRY_ID
Filter : id=2000
Target DataStore(Temporary):
Coloumns : Name , ENTRY_ID
Mapping between DataSet1 and Target Data Store already done in the Interface.
Now I have to add new DataSet as “Dataset2” with UNION Operator and do the mapping in to the same interface through ODI SDK.
Issue:
I have give the ODI SDK code for the below, while running that I am getting following error
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Object must not be null
while debugging I found that error occur exactly when the following code was running.
interactiveHelper.performAction(new InterfaceActionOnTargetMappingSetSql("NAME","W_PLM_LISTENTRY_PS.ENTRYVALUE",newDataSet));
Already mentioned that I am using Temporary Target datastore, so changed the target column name as "ENTRYVALUE" instead of “NAME” and modified java code like
interactiveHelper.performAction(new InterfaceActionOnTargetMappingSetSql("ENTRYVALUE","W_PLM_LISTENTRY_PS.ENTRYVALUE",newDataSet));
after this change it working well.
So, it seems when ever target datastore column name not equal to source data store column name I am getting this error.
Is it a bug? or am I doing anything wrong? please let me know.
Thanks

Creation of one outbound interface for two diferent senders

helo.
i just want to conform ont thing that .
my scenario is two diferent files from 2 diferent business systems are sending to one Rfc.
so i was created only one outbound interface for both senders and one message type bcos the file structure is same for both senders.
so is there any thing wrong in creating only one datatype,message type,message interface for both senders.
waiting for your response.
cheers.
seeta ram.

Hi Ram,
That is perfectly correct when you have two senders and one receiver Scenario and Business Service is different. Then you can use the same Interface.
Just keep in mind that the key for XI to recognise the Right interface is combination of these 3 parameters:
Sender Service, Sender Interface and Namespace. These cannot be duplicated.
When the Message type is same in the sender input data then you can create just one Message Type and One Data type and RFC is anyhow the imported RFC which you need not have to worry.
In Configuration Scenario you need to configure separately the RD, ID, CC and Agreements for the Interfaces.
Hope this answers your query. Let us know if you need anymore clarification
Thanks

In PI 7.1, condition editor does not show the outbound interface structure

Hello,
I am using PI 7.1, I need to use condition whild determing receivers. So I opened the condition editor, then open the expression editor, select XPath instead of Context object. I would expect that the outbound interface structure appears in the box underneath the XPath, so that I can navigate the structure to choose the field I want to use. However nothing appears here. Do you knwo why is that? Or do I need to do anything to bring up the outbound interface structure in the expression editor?
Thanks
Jayson

Hi Jayson,
I had the same problem
the use of context objects and the value help for xpath is available for XI3.0 interfaces in PI 7.10 only. The functionality for "new" interfaces has been implemented in 7.11 only.
you have to use xpath w/o value help.
I have created a context object in one of our 7.10 test systems, and indeed I was unable to use it in a receiver determination unless the service interface pattern is "Stateles (XI 3.0 compatible)". If you were to change the service interface to that pattern, you have to change the operation name unless it is already identical to the interface name. So that may not be an option for you.
It was possible to use the context object in a receiver rule but then I could not activate the receiver determination because the software component version was supposedly unknown. I will check with my PI contacts - please let me know if the change to "XI 3.0" interface would be a possible workaround for you.
Try the steps which I am giving below, although it's a workaround and don't know the exact reason why it is failing.
1. Open your Outbound Message Interface (which you are using in your Receiver Determination) in IR, edit it and change the Interface pattern (which is there just below the category "Outbound") to "Stateless (XI30 - Compatible)" , save it activate it.
2. Follow the same step for your Inbound Message Interface. Change the Interface Pattern from "Sateless" to "Stateless (XI30 - Compatible)" .
3. Go to ID. Remove your Outbound and Inbound Message Interface from their respective Business Service/Comp and add it again.
4. Create your your receiver determination again using the Outbound and Inbound MI you have changed.
5. Open condition editor of your receiver determination.You should be able to see your Message Interface and can choose the XPath.
Thanks,
Raj

Outbound interface determination in file adapter?

In my scenario files with different schemas can be send to XI from the same directory using the file adapter (so each file has a different interface that must be mapped etc.).
I cannot add multiple interfaces to the file adapter in sender agreement and determine the outbound interface by some condition. Interface must not be "*".
I thought about creating multiple file adapters (all listening to the same directory) and sender agreements. Each adapter is listenig to specific file type only (e.g. *.yxz, *.abc). So before putting the files to the input directory the file extension must be changed so that only the right adapter reads the file and XI gets the right interface.
Is there abetter way to do this???

Writing the file to a specific directory on server using DATASET

Hello Friends
I know that using dataset command we can create a file, write to a file, read from a file etc.,
But by default it uses the directory DIR_SAPUSERS which is the ./ directory.
But this particular directory DIR_SAPUSERS also has other system related log files etc.,
Is there a way to make the command DATASET write to a user created directory instead of this ./ ??
Any suggestions or comments will be highly appreciated.
Thanks
Ram

IF NOT p_ufile IS INITIAL.
OPEN DATASET p_ufile FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE.
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
here p_ufile will contain the path where ever u need to place the file i.e. use specific path.... ex: "usr/sap/bin/interface"

Problem with Outbound Interface for Party in Standard XI Content for SNC

Hi All,
I am configuring a standard XI Content for SNC, the ASN Processing (DIMP ERP Backend). The provided Integration scenario involves three swim lanes which corresponds to an ERP, SCM and an external system. The external system is as an application component that is designed for B2B communication, i.e. a service with party which is called Supplier.
The first action within the scenario is Create ASN in the Supplier swim lane and send a message to the action "Receive ASN and update inventory(in transit)" within the SCM system swim lane. I have created a sender party that corresponds to the Supplier swim lane and also a receiver party that corresponds to the SCM system. I used the Integration Scenario Configurator to assign services and also all the comm. channel. However, when i try to generate the logical routing objects and collaboration agreements, i get the error message that there was no outbound interface associated with the sender(the external system) defined for the first action. There is no option within the Integration Scenario Configurator on how to assign/define the outbound interface that I want to use for the sender.
I have no idea how to assign the outbound interface to the action for the Supplier swim lane in an Integration Scenario that is from an XI Content. Has anybody configured something similar or come across the same problem? Any info will be much appreciated.
Luqman

Hi,
This could be the problem of confilting namespace or combinations.
in receive action just check that right message interface is configured at Inbound side.
just check any place void ?
1)just check the name as case sensitive.
2)Just check is there interface belongs to right software component.
3)Just check mapping assigned to the right combination or not.
its better to cross check all the component are assigned to right place or not.
****if helpful then rewards points
