Partner Profile for file to IDOC scenario

Hi experts,
I am doing file to Idoc scenario. I did the ALE configuration steps between XI and r/3. For sender (ThirdParty) system, I defined Business system. While defining partner profiles in WE20 I got confused, whether to Give XI logical system Name or Third party logical system name. Please clarify..........
Thanks
Manoj

Hi,
>>I defined Business system. While defining partner profiles in WE20 I got confused, whether to Give XI logical system Name or Third party logical system name. Please clarify..........
in most cases you will only use one logical system in WE20
this will be XI's logical system - and you can route all the traffic
via this logicail system - this is the most popular case
for more about IDOCs and XI have a look at my book:
Mastering IDoc Business Scenarios with the SAP XI

Generating partner profile for File to Idoc(CREMAS) scenario.

Dear friend,
Completed all the steps in SLD, IR and ID.
I do not know how to create Partner profile and I skipped this step.
While testing I got the error "Unable to convert sender service to an ALE logical system".
I think i got this error because I have not created partner profile.
Could anybody tell step by step process of creating partner profile including logical system names( Sender and Receiver)?
I have seen many blogs and i couldn't get clear picture on how to generate partner profile.
My sender system is XI server and receiver is R/3.
I have created RFC destination, Port also.
Thanks in Advance
Chiru

generally u create partner profiles using transaction WE20.
SAP Menu -> Tools -> IDoc Interface/ALE -> Administration -> Runtime Settings -> Partner Agreement (WE20).
go through this link for step by steps

Alert Configuration for File to IDoc scenario

I have followed Alerts : Step-by-Step /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/06/28/xipi-faq-frequently-asked-questions
and configured Alerts for file to IDoc scenario.
But the problem is, I did not notice any alerts being generated. I could notice the IDocs being posted to destination system. So I was going through Alerts-Troubleshoute Guide. In intension to maintain monitoring level, I clicked Configuration tab. But I did not notice my sender and receiver system there to maintain.
Can any body help me to detail out the procedure to add sender and receiver systems to maintain the monitoring level?
Regards,
Suraj Kumar

hi Suraj,
WHich SP version are you on??
If you are on Sp14 or above, then unfortunately, Michal's Trouble Shooting for Alerts will not help.
From SP14 onwards, activation of end to end monitoring is not needed for Alerting. Refer to this note 870232 for this info.
Next, to test if your Alerts have been defined correctly, go to SE38. In the program , type RSALERTTEST and then click on EXECUTE button ( F8 ). In the next window, it will ask you for your ALERTCATEGORY. Just give the name of your ALERT CATEGORY and click EXECUTE.
If you have configured your alerts correctly, you will receive a message that tells ALERT IS GENERATED and will give the ALERT ID.
Now, go to your Run TIme workbench and then select ALERT INBOX and see if you have got the ALERT message in your ALERT INBOX.
If this is working fine, then the last step, implement the note 913858.

Bhavesh

For file to IDOC scenario, do i need to make a partner profile in XI ?

for a file--->XI--->IDOC scenario, do i need to make a partner profile in XI(for the R/3 system which is going to receive the IDOC),
or only a port maintenance in idx1 will do.....

hi Sudheer,
yes u need to maintain partner profile in R/3

Lookup issue for File to Idoc scenario-- Urgent Pls.

Hi All,
Iam doing File to IDoc scenario with one file --> any of 3 R/3 systems.
Routing has to be done dynamically using a lookup file, based on the incoming GLN code and last character of the Order Reference number.
The last character of the Order ref Num will have A,B or C.
Where, ' A' for R/3 152 Client
             ' B' for R/3 142 Client
             'C' for R/3 132 Client.
1. PlantGLN_Routing lookup file :
DestinationSystem,   Plant GLNCode,       Partner Number,
A,                            5000243000473,         GDKDVRC152,
B,                            5000243000473,         GDKDVRC142,
C,                            5000243000473,         GDKDVRC132,
A                                 500034000487           GDKDVRC152,
B                                 500034000487           GDKDVRC142,
C                                 500034000487           GDKDVRC132,
By Using DestinationSystem and Plant GLN Code as lookup key --> I need to get the value of partner system.
2. IdocCtrlLookup
Purpose: To read the IdocCtrlLookup file to populate the Idoc control segment
Now based on the partner system from previous table --> I need to get the details of Sender Port , Sender Partner Type , Sender Partner Function , Sender Partner Number , Rx Port , Rx Partner Type , Rx Partner Function , Rx Partner Number.
Please help me how can acheive this scenario with the help of lookups.
Its very urgent.
Regards
Krupakar.

HI,
Here you would have to use one mapping for dynamic routing , based on this create IM and use it in receiver determination.
the another mapping is general to file to idoc.
see the dynamic routing link here
Dynamic Configuration of Some Communication Channel Parameters using Message Mapping -
/people/william.li/blog/2006/04/18/dynamic-configuration-of-some-communication-channel-parameters-using-message-mapping
Also if you know the field name the context object can be defined for partner no that can be used in receiver determination in condition. to particular partner no in receiver determination.

Multiple Operations for File to IDoc scenario

Hi all,
I have a file to IDoc scenario where two IdocXML files (one for INSERT and one for CHANGE of Business Object) have to be picked up by file adapter and transfered to SAP System. In respect to the multiple operations PI 7.1 can handle I would like to create one Service Interface for the Business Object and two operations (INSERT and CHANGE).
Unfortunately I am not able to use the operation in the sender agreement, so I can't specify the comm-channel for the operations, only for the interface.
So, can I use multiple operations in a file scenario (respectively in a non Web Service scenario)??
Thanks a bunch,
Manfred

The scenario is pretty easy. I just want two different files to be read by one Comm Channel with one Sender Agreement.
They are both transferred to the same receiver. I just wanted to test one scenario using multiple operations.
In your blog you described that you should not use two operations with the same set of messages (synchronous/asynchronous). In my case both are asynchronous but I already tried it with one being sync and the other one async. Where did you actually get this information, it puzzles me a little since SAP does the same in its preconfigured Enterprise Services as far as I know.
In the Trace for pipeline step Interface determination in SXMB_MONI it says:
<Trace level="1" type="T">...There is no Interface Determination configured for receiver party and receiver service BS_RECEIVER</Trace>
<Trace level="2" type="T">Check conditions for (Inb: Party Srvc If) BS_RECEIVER SI_..._Out</Trace>
<Trace level="2" type="T">...valid InbIf without Condition: SI_..._Out</Trace>
<Trace level="2" type="T">Number of receiving Interfaces:1</Trace>
So it finds the Outbound Interface in Receiver side which is wrong since I specified the Inbound Interface in the Interface determination. Did anyone of you already encounter such a behaviour? I already deleted and recreated all routing objects but without any success.
Thanks,
Manfred

Suggestions for File to IDOC Scenario

Experts,
Here is the requirement A Legacy System will Produce the Customer data file and we have to transform certain data and post it to DEBMAS.
As Part of the information in the file there is a field Which could have a value Update,Amend or Delete.
My Question is How do it handle this.
Please give me your valuable thoughts.
Is it Possible to go for File2IDOC here?
Thanks
Vasu.

Hi Vasu,
If Customer data file is of type xml then file to IDOC scenario is preferable.
Else you have to convert Customer data file to xml first and then proceed for that you can use content converson feature of File Adapter.
The information for Update,Amend or Delete will be provided by customer or you have to decide it based of data in table?
if it is provided by customer then you can go for ABAP Proxy for that take help of ABAPers.
If you have to decide the Update,Amend or Delete logic.
Then fetch the data from table compare it with incoming data decide the Action and then perform the action this can also be handled in ABAP Proxy.
Reward Points if HElpful
Thanks

Enhanced Inerface Determination for File to IDoc scenario

I am using Enhanced Interface Determination in my scenario - where I map my source message (from a single instance) into more than one IDoc messages (separate instance of Idoc for each occurance of a particular segment in the source message). To implement this I am 1:n message mapping for Message Splitting.
The mapping is being executed successfully and several instances of the target IDoc type is being created at the runtime. But at the technical routing step I am getting error:
<SAP:Stack>Messages in multi-message format can only be sent to one Adapter Engine</SAP:Stack>
Does this mean that we cannot use Multi-Mapping for Message Splitting for IDoc Outbound Channels? Even if all the target messages (more than one) are being sent through the same Inbound interface and same Reciever IDoc Channel?
Regards,
Suddha

Thanks Farooq for your valuable advice.
You know what, I read those restrictions in the help.sap.com but had thought there must be some work around. It says split messages are sent using only one AE, but I hoped that Idoc and Http can be used as they are not part of AE and rather IE itself. Anyways, can't help...............but could help me understand what are the technical reasons for these restrictions?
The blog is really a nice one and very helpful..............thanks! I used multi-mapping in exactly similar way as in the blog and used enhanced interface determination - but the target message being Idoc
Is BPM the only option for my scenario?

Suddha

Problem when creating receiver agreement for File to IDOC scenario

I have done the following :
1. Created two business systems one for the file system and other for the R3 system and also I created two communication channel, one as sender communication channel and one as receiver communication channel.
2. Created the receiver determination
3. Created the interface determination
4. Created the sender agrement
5. Now when I was trying to create the receiver agreement I want to assign the receiver communication channel i have created to the receiver agreement but the F4 help gives me no records and I am thus stuck at this point.
Please suggest me how to proceed forward from here.

Hi ,
5. Now when I was trying to create the receiver agreement I want to assign the receiver communication channel i have created to the receiver agreement but the F4 help gives me no records and I am thus stuck at this point.
Make sure that your created communication channel for reciever is under the respective reciever business system and give the same while creating the reciver agrement.

FCC for file 2 idoc scenario

Hi.. my file structure is as follows..
Header ( occurs only once in the file )
NOS1 ( 1...unbounded)
NOS2 ( 0...unbounded)
NOS3 ( 0...unbounded)
Trailer ( occurs only once in the file )
Now i want to ignore the header and trailer records in my file...
Header i can ignore by using a document offset of 1...
But how do I ignore the trailer record?
Also how would my FCC setting be?
Thanks..

>>Header i can ignore by using a document offset of 1...
But how do I ignore the trailer record?
This is not possible in standard.
However, you can convert the trailer record also as usual and skip the trailer record in mapping.

Regarding RFC connection in File to IDOC Scenario

Hi everyone,
I was configuring file to Idoc Scenario, i have made all the required configurations in SLD, IR and ID, in XI system and in R/3 System. i have created RFC connection from XI to R/3 system, and its working fine. i have created an Partner profile in WE20 with sender file system name with inbound parameters. But still i am getting error as EDI Partner Profile not defined in WE05- iDOC ADDED WITH ERRORS. Do we need to create an RFC connection from R/3 system to XI for file to Idoc Scenario
!!! Note: RFC connection from R/3 system to XI is not working, will this be a problem for file to idoc scenario. !!!
Regards,
Varun Reddy.K

Hi Varun
Follow these steps
First - Maintain the Sender R/3 System:
SM59 : Create a RFC destination to XI
WE21 : Create a TRFC Port ->Specify the RFC Destination Created
BD54 : Create a Logical System for the Idoc Receiver
WE20 : Create Partner Profile ->Maintain Outbound and the Inbound Parameters
Second - Log on to XI System:
SM59 : RFC Destination for Sender System
IDX1 : Create the port to get Idoc Metadata from Sender System ( The Port Name must match the port name in the idoc header - Usually in format SAP<System ID>. eg. SAPID1 [Optional Step. Not mandatory]
IDX2 : Maintain the Idoc Metadata. This is needed only by XI, and not by other SAP systems. IDX2 is needed because XI needs to construct IDoc-XML from the IDoc. No other SAP system needs to do that.

Santosh

Needed urgent clarification on FILE TO IDOC scenario

Hi Experts,
                  I need urgent clarification on FILE TO IDOC scenario plz clarify it
1.In FILE TO IDOC scenario after creation of RFC dest ,performing steps in IDX1&IDX2
what configurations to be done on target system?
2.In some blogs it is given that steps should be done in RFC dest,we21,we20 .
But is it mandatory to do so RFC dest and WE21 steps [OR] directly can we configure partner profile in WE20?
3.on integ server IDX2 has to be done (or) is it optional for FILE TO IDOC scenario?
Too many to answer plz clarify good explanations will be rewarded.
                                                                                Regards,

Hi,
Please follow the below process for configuration:
Pre-requisites for Inbound IDoc to R/3 from PI:
Configuration required at Xi side:
Go to IDX1: configure the port.
Go to IDX2: load the DOC metadata.
Go to SM59: Create RFC destination which points to R3 system this is require in the case where your IDOC is sent to R 3 system,
Configiration required at R3 side:
Maintain Logical System for PI (SALE transaction):
Maintain Partner Profile for XI system(WE20):
Pre-requisites for Outbound IDoc from R/3 to PI:
Configurations required in R/3:
Maintain Logical System (SALE)
Define RFC Destination (SM59) which points to PI system
Maintain Port (WE21)
Maintain partner profile. (WE20):
Maintain Distribution Model (BD64):
DO let me know if you need more information
Thanks and Regards,
Chirag Gohil.

Receive acknowledgement in file-to-idoc scenario

Hello!
I'm using guide "How to handle acknowledgement for IDOC", and for the first time I want to see an acknowledgement status in sxmb_moni.
I have passed all steps:
In CRM I have logical system P1DFILE, this is the system that sends an idoc to CRM.
Also, I have logical system C2DCLNT100 - this is CRM system.
First, I go to BD64, create new model view XI_CRM. Then, add message type:
Sender system - C2DCLNT100
Receiver system - P1DFILE
Message type - ALEAUD.
Then I create RFC destination P1D_001 to my PI server.
Then I create port SAPP1D using WE21
Then I go to WE20, choose my Logical System - P1DFILE. I already have the inbound message types (CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE and CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE_M). I add new outbound message - ALEAUD with receiver port SAPP1D.
Then I go to RBDSTATE, create variant SAP_AUDIT_SEND and enter:
Confirmation to system: P1DFILE
Message type: CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE and CRMXIF_PARTNER_SAVE_M
Then, in SM36 I shedule SAP_AUDIT_SEND as a hourly job (does this mean, that I will receive confirmations only every hour?)
So, what should I do to see ack in sxmb_moni?

Dear All,
For file to idoc scenario is there any possibility to get line items details or xml details i.e the segments and its related field details using reference id, transaction id or interface name or message id in SAP PI 7.0. I know we need to click each and every message in sxi_monitor and look for details.
For SAP(R3 System) I can create a report and set the job for specific time period so automatically it throws the details(like reference no, document date, invoice no from) in ftp path as .csv file. The same ftp path is maintained in program.
I wanted to check FTP--->PI postings and I have set the job at r3 system it is working fine and Im monitoring it too.
Now the end to end scenario is FTP--->PI--->ECC(R3 system). Please help.Many Thanks.

System Level Acknowledgement in File to IDOC Scenario

Hi All,
I have the File-> IDOC Scenario. Once the IDOC is successfully sent to R/3, PI should send a acknowlement file back to the sender system.
Could someone suggest how to design this scenario?
Should I use IDOC Acknowledgement. As it is a existing scenario, I dont want much change in r/3 side.
