Regarding Seeburger Inbound Mapping.

Hi Everyone,
I am doing an Inbound Mapping from ANSI to IDOC using Seeburger Mapping Tool.
My Source Structure has the following LIN Segment
LIN (Item Identification) has Multiple Qualifiers and ID's like
235 (Product/Service ID Qualifier)
234 (Product/Service ID)
235 #2(Product/Service ID Qualifier)
234 #2(Product/Service ID)
235 #3(Product/Service ID Qualifier)
234 #3(Product/Service ID)
235 #4(Product/Service ID Qualifier)
234 #4(Product/Service ID) ..... and so on.
my mapping requirement is
For every qualifier
235  = "MG",
235 #2 = "MG",
235 #3 = "MG",......   i need to map source field (MATNR) to ID's  234 , 234 #2, 234 #3....
similarly,
so for every qualifier
235  = "KJ",
235 #2 = "KJ",
235 #3 = "KJ",......    i need to map source field (INSMK) to 234, 234 #2, 234 #3....
Please suggest me, how should i proceed, I would Appreciate if anyone could help me.

  • Error in Seeburger BIC Mapping

    Hi all,
    I am working on Seeburger BIC Mapping Designer.
    As i am starting off with it, i have planned to do a very simple scenario File to file.
    Source would be an XML and target also would be an xml.
    Compilation is fine, but while converting I am gettuing an error

    Please let me know what should be done.
    Even I have enabled SetIngnoreCRLF option in the source options.
    Cheers,

    Hi Karthick,
        Where do you get this error?
    In BICMD ?
    Have you created the E2X and/or X2E mapping programs in BICMD tool?
    Test it locally in the tool intself before deploying the mappings to XI server.
    Follow these steps to create a 1;1 mapping for XML to EDI and EDI to XML conversion program:

  • How to import the IDOC into Seeburger BIC mapping designer

    Hi All,
    Can u please tell me how to import the IDOC into Seeburger BIC mapping desginer.
    I have scenario My scenario is SAP GTS 7.0.....>Seeburger BIS.....>Atlas customs system for Germany
    Idoc coming from SAP GTS to Seeburger BIS and then convert to EDIFACT send
    to Atlas systeam.
    Regards,
    Ramesh.

    Hi Ramesh
    BIC is a tool from Seeburger to transmit the XML data to EDI and EDI to XML.
    Seeburger mapping programs for transferring the XML data to EDI data and EDI data to XML data, but not for the structure changing, in the IR your mapping program is same.
    Receiver side you need AS2 Adapter for converting data to EDI target structure. we have many EDI versions are available, for converting the EDI to XML or vice versa AS2 gives some default mapping programs, xml to EDI or EDI to XML convertion done through this mapping programs.
    Seeburger AS adapter provider provides some mapping programs(for example EDI4010 version or other), if you are using the same EDI version(4010) then you can use that mapping programs, if the version is different then we can manually generate the Seeburger X2E and E2X mappings for the corresponding version and signal(850 or 810 or ..), for this seeburger provides the mapping designer tool (BIC), there we can develope the X2E and E2X mapping programs and configure this in the Seeburger work bench.

  • Can SeeBurger BIC Mapping tool automatically remove Delimiters?

    Hi all,
    When we map IDOC's to EDI X12 messages using the SeeBurger BIC Mapping tool, we sometimes have delimiters occur in fields such as name or address. We are using the setDestinationDelimiter and have changed our delimiters so this occurance is rare. However the problem may still occur. This causes an invalid message to be passed to our partner.
    One option is to use XI mapping and the replace function on each field however this is cumbersome and not the ideal solution.
    Is there a way to automatically remove Delimiter characters from fields as part of the BIC Mapping.
    Cheers,
    John

    Hi Satish,
    Thanks for re-iterating the problem. You are absolutely right that this does cause an invalid message.
    Also thanks for your suggestion regarding asking business not to enter the data, this has been done and as stated the occurences of these delimiters in the fields will be low, usually due to user error.
    We still however want to cater for these occurrences and prevent an invalid message being sent to the partner.
    I'm not sure if you've ever used the BIC Mapping tool and what I'm really looking for is someone with experience in this area to give a solution that works. Anyone out there who can help?
    Cheers,
    John

    Hi,
    Even I faced a Similar problem...
    1) make sure that the size of the data that is coming to BIC map is not larger than the size defined in the Source field (Check In BIC and SAP XI/PI map.
    2) Make sure id any other seeburger mapping are working fine , This is because you have to deploy the file in form of Active mapping.sca in SAP XI/PI after the changes are made on BIC side.
    3) Check the Adapter Engine Cache ...
    Hope this helps..

  • Regarding seeburger adapter??

    Hello guys
    My client is going to implement EDI messages to SAP XI to SAP ERP .It would be great if you let me know the step by step proceedure ??
    wht is the use seeburger  BIC mapping tool here ??
    wht is the configuration should be done at sender side(seeburger as2) adapter??

    So this means your customer has purchased a Seeburger adapterlicense which will come with documentation for PI. Use that as first entry point. Such a general question you can not handle well in forum answer.
    General first hints:
    Seeburger delivers an EDI-adapter which will be deployed into PI. This adapter contains functionality to map between XML and EDIfact format. It also contains (normally) some standard mappings (e.g. for invoice). But be VERY careful with these standard mappings. Not all of them can be used without change. Make detailed tests and do not rely on them.
    The BIC mapping designer is not used in PI, but you can see it as a kind of external development or debugging tool in case of problems. You will surely use it, because there are many pitfalls regarding EDIFact and XML/PI. The topic is quite complex.

    Seeburger adapters like OFTPS,AS2,X400 are used for B2B scenario where the file is coming through WAn network or mailbox. As XI dont have capability to convert the EDIFACT format file to XML the same work will be done by seeburger adapters.
    The SEEBURGER Business Integration Converter (BIC) is an any-to-any format converter, used to translate EDI data and legacy data formats into XML and vice versa. It can also be used for complex, high performance XML-to-XML mappings or to interface to existing JDBC data sources.
    Supported EDI formats include:
    • ANSI
    • EDIFACT
    • INHOUSE
    • IDOC
    • XML Schema
    • XML DTD
    • CSV
    • Delimited Data
    • positional data
    • SWIFT
    • EANCOM
    and many more.
    See for converting the EDI XML to EDI and XML-EDI you need to have a seeburger mapping program at the adapter module which does the conversion. For this module you need a BIC tool of seeburger which provides the different module program for EDI to XML and XML-EDI. This program needs to be deployed on XI and through adapter it has to be called for conversion.

    Refer this forum which is replied by me which talka about the configuration which need to be done for AS2 adapter. This is very helpful:

  • Seeburger inbound/outbound mapping options with AS2 adapter

    Hi Gurus,
    This is the first time that i am handling Seeburger adapters(AS2 adapter).
    We have the following issue.
    We are using AS2 adapter from Seeburger for communicating with Partners (inbound/outbound).
    For some scenarios, the trading partners either sends us a flat/csv file or expects a flat/csv file from PI.
    And for these scenarios, we are using the AS2 adapter (for sender or receiver channel configuration) .
    Now, the main issue is that we need to convert the flat file to PI-XML format when we receive a flat file from a trading partner or we need to convert from PI-XML format to flat file format when we are sending file to a trading partner.
    Since the AS2 adapter does not have a File Content Conversion (Like we have in the File/FTP adapter) mechanism, we need to rely on MessageTransformBean (under AF Modules) to do the conversion for us. However, since this module cannot handle deep structures (nested structures) what other alternatives can we look out for ?
    I know we can also go for BIC Mapper which is shipped from Seeburger for EDI to XML and XML to EDI conversions. However in this project, we just need XML to flat file/CSV or Flat File/CSV to XML conversions and hence we want to abstain from buying a license for BIC mapper.
    Please let me know what other options can we try in this case.
    Does Seeburger has anything specific to do the conversions from XML to flat file or flat file to XML (and not the whole BIC mapper tool).
    Regards, Gaurav.

    Does Seeburger has anything specific to do the conversions from XML to flat file or flat file to XML (and not the whole BIC mapper tool).
    No. Seeburger doesn't provide any such tool/option.
    Please let me know what other options can we try in this case.
    As per the detail you have provided, you don't have any standard option left. You have to either develop your own adapter module or you can pass the payload directly to mapping and then perform Java mapping on it. You have option of using Conversion Agent but there must be some license cost for it as well.

    Prateek

  • Regarding Seeburger Classifier Module

    Dear Expert,
    I am using Seeburger EDI Adapter to handle EDI plain file into SAP XI. As I just want to use the Seeburger build-in mappings start with "See_", I did not set the parameter classifierMappingID of Seeburger Classifier Module, but always get the output of Seeburger Functional Acknowlegement. How can I set the parameters to use the build-in mappings like "See_E2X_ANSIX12_810_V4010"?
    Any suggestion or idea are appreciated!
    Thanks and Regards,
    Nick

    Hi Nick,
    you need to choose if you want to use classifier or predefined mapping name. The purpose of classifier is to classify your message (exp. ANSI 12, EDIFACT etc.) and than to find the mapping specified in Seeburger Message splitter (from http://<XI Host>:<J2EE port>/seeburger/index.html -> Message splitter).
    In Message splitter you need to choose you sender agreement from XI, Mapping name and sender number (for ANSIX12 it's the value of ISA06 from inbound ANSI message).
    Please check Seeburger manual SAPXI_FunctionalAck_en.pdf.
    If you need your communication channel to process only ANSIX12_810_V4010 messages than you don't need classifier and you can hardcoded parameter mapping name "See_E2X_ANSIX12_810_V4010".

  • Regarding SEEBURGER

    Hi ALL,
    Could you plz tell me ,
    In IDOC to EDI SEEBURGER Scenario, We have to purchage the SEEBURGEREDI Adapter Software ?
    Where to install the SEEBURGER Software ? In XI System or Non-SAP System ?
    Any Configuration required in Non-SAp System ?
    Thanks & Regards
    Murali

    Hi,
    The most direct way of using the Seeburger adapters is to configure the BIC as a module. There is a software component from seeburger called bicmapper which will allow you to do the following:
    1. define or import the inbound message metadefinition in various formats ( edifact, xml,...)
    2. using a mapping create an xml variant as the output metadefinition or edifact in the other direction.
    3. create a one to one mapping between input en output.
    4. export the metadata in xsd or sda format for import in XI
    5. generate an SDA which can be deployed in XI and used as a module.
    Please go through the following links which clearly explains what you want and it also helps you in understanding the same in depth:
