Passing to multiple receive pipelines.

Hello,
I am rather new to BizTalk and have a design question. Currently we are receive a custom receive pipeline in a receive port with multiple receive locations. What I would like to do
is pass a given message (these are HL7 messages coming in through the MLLP adapter) to both the current receive pipeline and another receive pipeline? Is this possible? If so how would I go about doing this? I have thought about using an
orchestration to call the receive pipelines but at this point the message is already in XML. I need the native HL7 message to be passed through both pipelines.
Thanks.

Why do you want to do by passing same message to multiple pipelines.You associate a receive pipeline to a receive location not to a receive port.
If you want to do two different process to the received native message, you can think about creating a custom receive pipeline with various component in different stages to process the native message before it being converted to XML.
If this answers your question please mark it accordingly. If this post is helpful, please vote as helpful.

Issue with custom receive Pipeline component

I have been facing issue with creating a custom receive pipeline component. The Pipeline is to receive large file, if the file size is large it has to read the incoming stream to a folder and pass only some meta data through the MessageBox. The Execute method
I am using is,
#region IComponent Members
public IBaseMessage Execute(IPipelineContext pContext, IBaseMessage pInMsg)
if (_largeFileLocation == null || _largeFileLocation.Length == 0)
_largeFileLocation = Path.GetTempPath();
if (_thresholdSize == null || _thresholdSize == 0)
_thresholdSize = 4096;
if (pInMsg.BodyPart.GetOriginalDataStream().Length > _thresholdSize)
Stream originalStream = pInMsg.BodyPart.GetOriginalDataStream();
string largeFilePath = _largeFileLocation + "\\" + pInMsg.MessageID.ToString() + ".zip";
FileStream fs = new FileStream(largeFilePath, FileMode.Create);
// Write message to disk
byte[] buffer = new byte[1];
int bytesRead = originalStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
while (bytesRead != 0)
fs.Flush();
fs.Write(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
bytesRead = originalStream.Read(buffer, 0, buffer.Length);
fs.Flush();
fs.Close();
// Create a small xml file
string xmlInfo = "<ns0:MsgInfo xmlns:ns0='http://SampleTestPL.SchemaLocation'><LargeFilePath>" + largeFilePath + "</LargeFilePath></ns0:MsgInfo>";
byte[] byteArray = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetBytes(xmlInfo);
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(byteArray);
pInMsg.BodyPart.Data = ms;
return pInMsg;
#endregion
Here I want the xml to be dropped in to the File share Eg: E:\Dropbox\PL\send and and the entire message to be dropped in the folder Eg: E:\Dropbox\sendLarge. so in the ReceivePipeline properties i set like
And in the send port the destination i give is E:\Dropbox\PL\send.
The issue is both the xml and the message are getting dropped in to the same folder E:\Dropbox\PL\send and the message is not getting dropped in E:\Dropbox\SendLarge. Any help is greatly appreciated.

How to use custom pipeline dlls in Biztalk Projects so that they appear in the send/receive pipeline configuration after deployment?

I have a existing Biztalk application that uses custom pipelines for receiving excel files. I have the dll of that custom pipeline. Now i created another BT application that needs to use that same custom pipeline. But after i deploy the application in
Biztalk, i can't see the pipeline available in Receive pipeline configuration combo box during configuration. I have referenced the custom pipeline dll in my project before deploying, but that doesn't help. I also copied the dll in the C:\Program Files
(x86)\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010\Pipeline Components folder and C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft BizTalk Server 2010 folder, but that doesn't make the pipelines appear during configuration too.
Can anyone give any idea on how can i use these custom pipeline dlls in project so that they appear in configuration after deployment?

If you plan on using the deployed pipeline across multiple applications in BizTalk, the BizTalk Application (using the BizTalk Server Administration Console) should have the other application [where the pipeline is deployed] as reference.
For e.g.: Custom Pipeline (myCustomPipeline) part of a BizTalk Project (dll - myCustomProject.dll) deployed under Application [Some Application] also to be used in another BizTalk Application [Some Other Applicaiton] then using BizTalk Server Administartor
right click the "Some Other Application" and select "Properties"
on the "Properties" page, left hand side, select "References"
on the right-hand side, use "Add" to add the "Some Project" as a reference.
Doing so will ensure that ALL resources (maps, schemas, orchestrations, send ports, receive locations, rules, etc.) deployed for "Some Application" are available/referensible in "Some Other Application".

Call a receive pipeline in orchetsration for debatching

Why we Call a receive pipeline in orchetsration for debatching ?Is there any specific reason for this ?
Can we apply some other technique for debatching in orchestartion ?
Prakash

Debatching in Orchestration can be done in two main ways:
By calling Receive pipeline in orchestration
By using some code.
When I mean by some code, this can be
Using XPath
Nodelist in Atomic scope
Or pass the debatching logic to external .NET helper.
Rachit's article can give you insight into the performance of these options.
Microsoft has seen this requirement and seen people use various methods to debatch. So they came up with Pipeline Manager so the pipeline can be called in Orchestration to debatch, which is much better in terms of performance. But you lose the “Recoverable
Interchange” option when you call Receive pipeline in orchestration.
So what I do is chose the option based on quality of the interchange/batch I would receive. If interchange/batch is always going to be perfect and if I would not be facing any issues in debatch or format of the interchange, then I would prefer to go with
calling Receive pipeline in orchestration. If message quality would vary and there are possibilities of many messages with in the message to fail during debatching i.e. if I need “Recoverable Interchange” and also there is need to debatch the message in orchestration,
then I would use custom code to the debatch and handle the failed debatched messages internally.Its sometime better to handle the known devil/failure within the code rather than leaving to operational support to manage
FYI, there are also other reistriction on using Receive Pipeline in Orchestration, check this article from MSDN for more info.

Conditional base routing to multiple receiver's for syncronous interface

Hi All,
I have a requirement of sysnchronous interface where i need to send the message to 2 diffrent systems based on the routing condition. Based on routing condition we will determine the receiver to send message and response shloud send back to sender.
Please let me know my requirement is possible using sysnchromous call i.e sending to multiple receiver's based on conditon. Thanks.

Aamir,
I dont think BPM is required here,XI always use mesasgeID as the reference.
lets say you sent a request then XI generates message ID :11111 (for Ex)
and for the response XI again generate another message ID:22222(for Ex),but referencing to MessageID:11111,it cant be to some other request message ID.(always reference is maintained by XI for Sync calls)
so we dont need to maintain any relationship between request and respone ,explicitly.it is being taken care by XI itself for sync calls.
response1 for a request1 wont go to someothers request2.
I dont know whether you get my point what I was trying to say.
and just using Xpaths in receiver determination would give the solution.but need to have two Receiver agreements.
I might be wrong !
thank you,

How to pass checkbox multiple value in URL as parameter?

Hello,
I have a checkbox in two page. The checkbox is based on a LOV and user can check more than one value at a time. The return value of the checkbox is like "ID1:ID2".
I want to call another page with the same checkbox item and want to pass the checked value via the URL.
This cause problem because checked value are separated with : that not work in URL.
So, how can I pass checkbox multiple value in parameter via an URL?
Thanks
Jean

Jean,
Why pass it in a URL instead of just using what's in session state? On your second page, set the Source Type of the check box item to ITEM and enter the name of the check box item on the first page.

Integrtion Scenario using BPM with two sender and multiple receiver

integrtion Scenario using BPM with two sender and multiple receiver
How many Application Components are required?

Hi Vinod,
1) In integration repository you can have one or many software components it depends on your landscape orchestration
2) In integration direcory you need at least one service for bpm and one or many for each system in your bpm
also each connection between systems and bpm must have receiver determination and so on.
Advice: Please treat BPM as a separate system.

Multiple Receiver Dtermination from Same Business Sender Service to RecvStp

Hi,
I was trying to implement FORK STEP in ccBPM. Scenario I'm trying to implement is, using fork bundle PO with same items together.
Can anybody help me to create multiple receiver dterminations for three receiver steps in three branches of fork step, where a common business sender service and same Integration process is used for receiving messages into SAP XI.
Please advice soon,
Thank You,

Hi Murali,
If it's always the same message, only one receiver determination is necessary. I'd also rather tend to do the capturing within a loop which is executed three times.
Best regards
Joachim

Multiple receiver without condition

Hi Ahmed,
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2005/08/03/xpath-to-show-the-path-multiple-receivers
in the above blog <status>tag is getting populated from the sender but in my case i need to calcualte in runtime and it was in BPM for eg. sum of particular field f1. then need to send accordingly only based on this f1 value.
please help me out how this will be possible. can we use the variable in Recevier determination which i declared in BPM.

Any possiblity to use single Inbound Service Interface with multiple Receiver Agreements

Hi All,
Scenario: PROXY to FILE.
Requirement is to receive to two locations.
Is it possible to use single Inbound interface with multiple Receiver Agreements. I tried using two operation in the Inbound Service Interface, and Operation Specific in Determination. But couldnt proceed further. Do I need to use seperate Service Interface for two receiver locations?
Please suggest some solution.

Hi Naveen,
There is a possibility but in the case in the same server location with dynamic configuration: Placing file in two different directories using single receiver communication Channel
With different location you would need to develop a new adapter module as Amit Srivastava explains and develops here Send File to Two Different Locations using Adapter Module

[BPM] Multiple receiving steps

Hey,
found this demo for multiple receive steps.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/cb/15163ff8519a06e10000000a114084/content.htm
I tried to create a BPM with multiple receive steps, where one step could start
the process. The example needs to receive ALL steps before it starts.
How to define a BPM where ANY receive step can start the BPM?
Would like to receive different Message-Types and transform them to
a generic structure.
thanks
chris

Hi,
Use standard pattern multiple Trigger which you can find under BASIS software component under patterns namespace.
Let me brief.
First step would be fork with necessary branches(depends on how many systems are participating in requirement). Under each branch insert receive step and for each receive step you it as a start process if required.
thanks

Multiple receiving points for BPEL

Can we bind one BPEL to multiple Adapters, for e.g. File and JMS adapters calls the same BPEL as well as we should be able to send SOAP messages from a SOAP client to the same BPEL? (Multiple receiving points for one BPEL)
here is what i need to do
To create an adapter we create an partner link and bind that partner link with the "receive activity", as I understand we can bind only one partner link with "receive activity", but if I create a "file adapter" partner link and a "JMS adapter" partner link, how do I bind both of them with "receive activity"? so i dont need to write a seperate BPEL for each adapter.

I have a similar problem but the tutorial does not solve my problem and I think it does not solve the jms and file process either.
I want to have a process to receive a message, do things and then receive another message. The difference with the tutorial is that in the tutorial the Buyer is called, it calls to the seller and gets the response. In my case (and in the jms and file example), we wanto to get to receive the second time without invoking first to a process.
(In my case the client is the same, but need to send two messages, in the first message ask for a operation and gets an Id. In the second message it sends the Id to confirm the operation. I could do that with two processes, but I prefer to do it with one process if possible. I am trying to use the Id to correlate the second receive).
I am using correlations set and two roles for the process entry point (one for the first receive in the process and another for the second receive in the middle). But in the second role, when I see the generated WSDL from the console, the endpoint is something like http://set.by.caller, instead of a real endpoint.
How can the second client call my process ? what endpoint should it be using ?
Can a process expose two endpoints to be called ? How ?
Thanks.

RFC_ERROR_SYSTEM_FAILURE occurs if something is wrong with the Sap system that you are connecting to.
The most common cause is the RFC, you are calling itself has thrown an exception during the runtime.
This will help you in figuring out the cause of the issue:
1. Call the same RFC with same parameters in SapGui and see if it is successful.
2. Turn on Rfc tracing and look into the trace files.
If you are not able to find the cause, you can contact SAP/ABAP consultant with the traces. They will

Encrypt xml message in receive pipeline

Hi,
I am new to biztalk .
I have a requirement where i need to encrypt the xml message in the receive pipeline.I know i have to develop a custom pipeline component to do this but i don't know in which stage of receive pipeline should i place this component in?
please advice .
Thanks in advance

Hi Rose,
To decrypt the message in receive pipeline and you will place the custom pipeline component in Decode stage
of the receive pipeline and encryption will be done at send pipeline and you will place the custom pipeline component in Encode stage of the send pipeline.
