PL_TIMEOUT in Sync Async scenario using BPM

Hello:
We sporadically get PL_TIMEOUT error in a S/A scenario. Every time the error occurs when it is trying to close the Synch Asynch bridge in the BPM. The BPM is extremely simple but it often runs for a long time (5-8 minutes) esp in the close S/A bridge step. The timeout parameters are set as follows
TIMEOUT=60 sec
PROCTIMEOUT=900 sec
CHECK_FOR_ASYNC_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT=500 sec (increased this from the default 60 sec recently)
Would increasing TIMEOUT or CHECK_FOR_ASYNC_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT parameters help?

Doubt on Sync-Async bridge using BPM

Hi Experts,
                 I had a doubt on Sync-Async bridge using BPM,
   1. If sender system is SAP system and receiver system is non-sap system then while configuring in Integration Directory how many Receiver Determinations should be done ?
2.Plz explain if we have 2 receivers i.e one sender SAP system and 2 non-sap systems then what will be the no. of receiver determinations?
3.How we have to count no. of receiver determinations if we have 2 receivers and 1 receiver system? If so what is the no. of receiver determinations in case of 1 receiver syst and 2 receiver systems?
Plz clarify above questions good answers will be definetly rewarded.
                                                                                Regards,
                                                                                Vinod.

vinod,
... Sync-Async bridge and Recievr determination are not related....
Sync-Async bridge means.. u r sending some request syncronously...and u r expecting the response also in synchronous way... but u r not getting the response directly...u r getting it via BPM..i.e asynchornously.....
see here what is the Use of Synch - Asynch bridge in ccBPM
/people/sriram.vasudevan3/blog/2005/01/11/demonstrating-use-of-synchronous-asynchronous-bridge-to-integrate-synchronous-and-asynchronous-systems-using-ccbpm-in-sap-xi
and here if u have 2 reciver... u have to create 2 receiver determination and ofcourse for BPM one reciver dtrmination is required.... since in BPM related scenario BPM will act as a reciver...BPM(IP) wil first recive the message then it will be forwarded to Receiver system!!! so total 3.
<b>3.How we have to count no. of receiver determinations if we have 2 receivers and 1 receiver system? If so what is the no. of receiver determinations in case of 1 receiver syst and 2 receiver systems?</b>
r u telling that u r having two recivers and each receiver is receiving messages using 2 interaces???
u have 2 use 2 receiver determination and 4 interface determination.

Correlation issue in JMS adapter - SYNC/ASYNC scenario without BPM

Hi,
I am working on a SYNC/ASYNC scenario with JMS adapter without using BPM. My scenario is SOAP<>PI>JMS. I configured the interface as below:
1. SOAP Sender channel
2. JMS Receiver Channel writing to Queue A.
     Module used:      a. RequestOneWayBean
               b. WaitResponseBean
     Correlation Settings:
               a. Set JMS Correlation ID to "XI Message ID"
               b. Store JMS CorrelationID of request (Checked)
               c. Set JMS Property to "JMS Correlation Id"
               d. Value = "XI MEssage ID"
3. JMS Sender channel reading from queue B ( I am exporting the message from queue A and importing into queue B)
     Module used:      a. NotifyResponseBean
     Correlation Settings:
               a. Set XI MEssage Id to "GUID"
               b. Set XI Conversation ID to "Stored JMS COrrelationID of Request"
I can see the cid in the message from queue A. But I observed thhat the header format of the message in Queue A is "MQSTR".
ISSUE:
1. While writing the message to queue A, below adapter log details(part b) concerned me:
     a. Message '8747a7c2-2b06-11df-8055-005056a70ed6' successfully processed by channel
     b. Could not create acknowledgements for message '8747a7c2-2b06-11df-8055-005056a70ed6'
I am not sure why I am receiving the message that " could not create acknowledgements"
2. While reading the message from the sender channel,I consistently get the error message as below:
     a. XI message ID corresponding to JMS message with ID 'ID:414d51205341504449442e514d202020c67b954b20005602'
          will be created as a new GUID with value '21bca916-424f-41f6-3347-c71090392b58'
     b. Error while processing message '21bca916-424f-41f6-3347-c71090392b58'; detailed error description:
          com.sap.aii.adapter.jms.api.channel.filter.MessageFilterException: found no correlation ID: RecoverableException:
          found no correlation ID at com.sap.aii.adapter.jms.core.channel.filter.SendToModuleProcessorFilter.filter(SendToModuleProcessorFilter.java:105) ...
Below are the blogs which I have already gone through:
1. JMS Synchronous Scenario without BPM - Correlation Settings and Transactional JMS Session
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/b028f6f6-7da5-2a10-19bd-cf322cf5ae7b
2. Note: 1086303
3. Sync / Async Bridge without BPM
In the note, they mentioned something about header being "MQRFH2". BUt in our case, the header is "MSSTR". Not sure whether it makes any difference.
Please help.

Hi,
detailed error description:
com.sap.aii.adapter.jms.api.channel.filter.MessageFilterException: found no correlation ID: RecoverableException:
found no correlation ID at com.sap.aii.adapter.jms.core.channel.filter.SendToModuleProcessorFilter.filter(SendToModuleProcessorFilter.java:105) ...
This error would generally arose when there are multiple messages, got stuck in the outbound queue. Try to stop both the sender and receiver JMS comunication channels and clear both the inbound and outbound queues.
Once all the messages in the queue are cleraed, try posting the message again.

File to SOAP Scenario Using BPM

Hi,
I am doing File to SOAP scenario using BPM.
while doing Integration Process in IR, i got the following error message
"Expression of simple type xsd:string expected"
But i have given xsd:string in the correlation element as well as in Data types.
I dont know why it is getting the error.
could you anyone please help me to sort out?
Regards,
Sai Ch.

Hey,
Check in the correlation editor, where you define the condition.
Whether the data type of the XPath is string and whether it matches with the data type of the messages that you have selected.also make sure the type of the correlation variable is string.

File to IDOC Scenario using BPM

Hi Experts,
    I am working on file-Bapi-Idoc scenario using BPM.
    I have two conditions
1. If the Sonumber is populated then need trigger an Bapi_change
2.If the Sonumber is not populated from the file then need to trigger a Bapi_Createfromdat to create the sales order and receive the salesorder number as response from Bapi
and the response of these BAPIs should be validated whether the Bapi is successful or not.
If it is successful message then need to trigger IDOC or else should throw an alert message.
let me know the steps involved in this scenario.
can i send alert message to other email IDs or can i send it to only XI admin?
Please let me know u r inputs.
Thanks in advance
Praveen

Hey,
You need to have a BPM for this.
BPM design.
Recieve step(abstract asynchronous) for file structure
Switch Case(condition whether sonumber is populated or not)
if populated
Branch 1(of switch)
    transforamtion step:- mapping between File and Bapi_Change(Request structure)
Send step(abstract syncronous) To send the BAPI_change
Branch 2(of switch)
transformation step:-mapping between file and BApi_Create
Send step(abstract synchronous) To send the BAPI_Create
Block step(which will include the Switch step)
    trigger an Execption in case of an error(in any of the two branches) through the block
    The Exception will trigger an alert.
Now after the Block step there will be a transformation step(which will have the mapping between RFC response and Idoc)
Next is the send step(abstract asynchronous) for the idoc
In case if there is no exception the Idoc will be triggered or the exception branch will trigger the alert
rewards points if useful

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.

RFC Scenario using BPM

I did whatever mentioned in that blog(/people/arpit.seth/blog/2005/06/27/rfc-scenario-using-bpm--starter-kit). Also I do have some experience in BPM.
After testing I don't see the file inthe outbound directory. So I started analysing from all sides.
1. First checked the message in my sxi_monitor, it black and white flag showed that the message processed successfully.
2. I opened the message and saw the message from CENTRAL Client passed to PE ADAPTER Client with tooltip showing "Transfer to Process engine".
1. First I checked whether my BPM is correct by pressing F7. There is no syntax error.
2. I checked in sx_cache, the ReturnCode was 0.
3. In smq2 I saw a message stuck in the PE queue. I double clicked the queue and saw the status text as "Permanent error in BPE inbound processing". So I kept debugging by pressing F8 and after that the message got disappeared.
4. I opened the message in sxi_monitor, and after the CENTRAL Client the message passed to PE ADAPTER, which measn the meesage has got transferred to process engine. But i'm not seeing any change in the file.
5. Also what I did was use transaction SXMB_MONI and chose process radio button and execute. Located my message but there is no task value which starts with 'WS..' in Process def column.
Can you please pinpoint where i went wrong and anything else?
One more thing, everytime i test the new file the file goes and gets stuck in the queue and I have got to follow the item 3 mentioned above.
Thanks,

Hi Kishore, The second block is a synchronous send block in the BPM triggers the call to RFC. I've done it as per the blog. There is no transformation step in the BPM. Anyway I fixed the issue. In the receive block whatever container value I used should be used in the send block also. Earlier I was getting some warning. Now my BPM is clean and it worked.
Lesson learnt: Ensure there is no warning in the BPM. Thanks again Kishore.
Thanks,

ASYNC to SYNC scenario using BPM.

hi,
i have a async to sync scenario. i have a File sender->PI(BPM)->ECC and the response from ECC->PI->SOAP.
Here in PI, i am using BPM. The ECC side is a Synchronous BAPI. The response is sent to the SOAP receiver.
in BPM, can someone tell me how many transformation steps do i need i.e mappings. and how many abstract interfaces, synchronous interfaces, outbound interfaces, inbound interfaces?
also how many send,receive and transformation steps.
and in the configuration part,
how many receiver determinations, interface determinations do we need.
rgds,
mithun

Hi,
File sender->PI(BPM)->ECC and the response from ECC->PI->SOAP

BPM Sync/Async Scenario: error: "Timeout condition of pipeline reached"..!

Hi,
I am doing Sync/Async BPM scenario.
-> Receive message and process and response back to the sender.
Sometimes it will correct correctly. Sometime the message will come and stay in XI and fails with error
<SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">

<SAP:AdditionalText />
<SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
<SAP:Stack>Timeout condition of pipeline reached</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>N</SAP:Retry>
</SAP:Error>
I observed that the messages will stay in transaction "SXMS_SAMON" . and will fail after sometime.
What might be the reason. ? what need to do to stop these kind of errors?
Thanks
Deepthi.

Hi Praveen,
Webservice <--> XI -->BW .
BPM :
start ->Receive(Request)> Transformation(Responsemap)>Send(SendtoBW)->Send(Send Response) ---> stop.
Messages are getting struck in SMQ1 and SM58 at these three points.
1. Message comes and stays in SXMB_MONI in status "Log Version"
The messages are stuck in SMQ1 in READY status without doing any processing.
XBQO$PE_WS90100002 WORKFLOW_LOCAL_100 1 READY 26.02.2009
Once I push the queue by Activating/Unlocking, it will process.
2. when it is trying to send the message to R/3 (Backend system) it is waiting in SM58 with below entry.
WF-BATCH SWW_WI_EXECUTE_INTERNAL_RFC WORKFLOW_LOCAL_100 Transaction recorded
Manually I execute LUW to push it. Once I done the message will go to R/3 system and Response mapping also complete.
3. Again it is waiting at SM58 with below deatails while sending the response to sender.
PIAFUSER SWW_WI_COMP_EVENT_RECEIVE_IBF WORKFLOW_LOCAL_100 Transaction recorded
we are again manually execute LUW. Once we done the response message will go back to Sender.
Any Idea to solve this..?
Thanks

When is Sync-Async bridge used in BPM? Kindly help!

Hi Experts,
I am finding it difficult to understand when to use Sync-Async bridge. In the example given by SAP it is not clear what they mean by following:
1. We use Sync-Async bridge when the sender system is Sync and Receiver system is Async. What do you mean when you say receiver is Async?
2. When Receiver is Async then how will it send a response?
3. Can somebody explain the "Wait" mechanism used to get the response?
4. Can we use Sync-Async bridge when both the sender and receiver systems are Sync? How?
Please help me with the answers
Thanks & Regards,
Gopal

Hi,
In a simple way ill tell you. Suppose we need to check the reservation seats of Train or flite then the sender(our) side is Asynchronous and receiver(server) side is Synchronous, because the receiver(server) takes the request and send the response(seats r avail or not).
For your second question
If the receiver is Async then it doesn't send the response.
For your fourth question chk this

Help SOAP to RFC Scenario using BPM (Synchronous communication)

Hi,
I am doing a scenario from SOAP to RFC scenario(Synchronous communication). Here I am creating a PM Notification in the SAP system through a webservice.
I am using three BAPI'S here,
1. BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE
2. BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE
3. BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT
I am successful in calling the first BAPI from the Web Service. For this I have not used BPM. But to commit the transaction(PM notification in this case), I have to execute the other two BAPI's as well. I have to pass the output of first BAPI to the second BAPI and then execute the 2nd BAPI. And finally have to execute the 3rd BAPI. FYI, 3rd BAPI is not dependent on any output. It has to be executed independently after execution of the first two BAPI's.
How can I execute this scenario? Do I have to use BPM? If yes please let me know the steps in detail. I have not done any BPM scenario till now. So please answer me in detail.
Thanks in Advance,
Vijay
p.s. reward points are must

Hi Vijay,
Yes, You will indeed need a BPM in this case...
Based on my understanding of the Scenario u have explained, here are the steps that would be needed.
1. Receive With the Sync-Async Bridge open.
2. Transformation Step (Between the source Request and The BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE Request)
3. Send Synchronous
4. Fork
5. In one Branch of the fork - Transformation (Between the BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_CREATE Response and API_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE Request)
6. In the other branch of the fork - Transformation (Between a Dummy Source and the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT Request)
7. Send Synchronous (to make the 2nd BAPI Call)
6. Transformation ( BAPI_ALM_NOTIF_SAVE Response and the source Response)
7. Send Asynchronous (to make the 3rd BAPI call)
8. Send the Source Response and close the Sync-Async Bridge.
There might be alternative ways also of doing it...
Also a better design would be to take care of the 2nd and the 3rd BAPI call within the code of the 1st RFC Function Module.

Abhy Thomas

Async-Sync-Async Bridge Without BPM

HI Folks,
I have a requirement as
u201CAn Asynchronous SOAP request is triggered to PI and then should get records from a (JDBC)database and write the result to a fileu201D
It is of Aync-Sync-Async Bridge and i have to do without BPM
I know by using some module parameters at sender communication channel we can do this.
But my query
1)Is that for SOAP sender communication channel can we provide the same module parameters
Number - ModuleName - Type - ModuleKey
1- AF_Modules/RequestResponseBean - Local Enterprise Bean - 1
2- CallSapAdapter-Local Enterprise Bean - 2
3-AF_Modules/ResponseOnewayBean-3
Parameters
ModuleKey - ParameterName - ParameterValue
1 - passThrough - true
3-receiverChannel - Receiver File Adapter Name
3-receiverService - Receiver Business Service/ System
2) Does the SOAP support the without BPM scenarios
3)Scenario is like Soap --> JDBC -->File (Async - Sync - Async) and how abt for Soap --> RFC -->File (Async - Sync - Async)
Thanks in Advance
Lemon

For your requirement , you can handle this scenario without BPM in two ways.
1) Async sync bridge without BPM. You are going to use request response bean and one way response bean module to achieve this. very simple. See this [link|http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/File-RFC-File(Without%20BPM)]
In the sender SOAP channel you have to configure first request response bean, second callsapadapter and third onewayresponse bean. Refer this link. Simply follow file sender configuration for your soap sender or RFC sender.
Note: one receiver agreement , one receiver determination, one interface determination. only two receiver channels one jdbc and one file.
2) You can create SOAP to File asynchronous. Using quality of service EO and creating service interface asynchronous mode. In the mapping area do JDBC lookup. If your version is 7.1 then this lookup is available. This is pretty simple no need to do async to sync pattern.
Hope that helps.
