Same import map to matmas and clfmas

Hi,
I have a custom idoc bringing matmas and clfmas together and XI /pi would convert that file into single XSD or XML .
Can we create a import map which can be used by this import file.
import map should have both masmas and clfmas definitions....
as we know clfmas is an heirarchy.
Sonali

Hi Sonali,
If I have understood your requirement correctly, you have a repository that contains both standard matmas and clfmas fields.Now have created a custom XSD from the standard IDos matmas and clfmas using PI.You want to import the data from this XML and save the map.
You can very well achieve this provided your repository has all the required fields to be mapped.
In the import manager connect to the customized XML.
Map the fields in the repository with the destination XML structure fields.Save the map.
Hope it helps.
Thanks,
Minaz

Hi Sai,
you can use XSLT or java mapping or adapter module to convert IDOC xml to XLS. Please refer the below blog

How do i update & test import maps and syndication maps?

HI,
Can anyone guide me/ let me know the steps - how do i update & test import maps & syndication maps during upgrade in development system>
Regards,
Harmony

Hello Harmony
Different service packs SAP MDM 7.1 supprot the same Syndication and Import map format.
For Import map is updating you can use Import manager
For syndication map is updating - Syndicator
If your syndication and import map have been saved into repository just archive repository from your source landscape and unarchive it in destination.
If your syndication and import map haven't been saved in repository.
Exporting your maps to xml(syndication maps from syndicator and import maps from Import Manager) before migration and importing it to new repository.
According updating(modification) repository structure:
For Import map is updating you can use Import manager
For syndication map is updating - Syndicator
Another way(very exotic) - make changes in exported xml maps.
That's all

Import ID Configuration Scenarios and keep the same Business System names

Hi Guys,
Is it possible to transport ID Configuration Scenarios Objects between 2 XI systems and keep the same names for both sender and receiver Business Systems ? That is, to skip the SLD lookup for transport Source and Transport Targets systems ?
I tried to create the same Business Systems under the same name twice, but this was not possible. Any ideas ?
The reason is that I want to transport all the objects from one XI DEV server to another XI DEV server.
Thank you,
Best Regards,
Evaggelos Gkatzios

Hi,
We have done same but with bit of manual work (without Transport).
Create SLD object in target system with same name as in Souce XI system SLD.
IR & ID was exported using TPZ files from Source system & were imported in Target system.
It used same object names in both XI systems.

You can't do it in one step. Add to iTunes first, Once the tracks are in iTunes you may convert to a different format.

R/3 u2013 XI u2013 MDM integration scenario - Standard import Maps problem

Hi Data Masters,
We are working on R/3 u2013 XI u2013 MDM integration scenario for Vendor Object. We have extracted main table Data using u201CMDM_CLNT_EXTRu201D program. Now while importing the data in MDM we want to use u201CStandard business content i.e. Standard Import Maps (Name u2013 cremdm - 03 u201D but this maps are not mapping all the fields. So do we need to extend this maps..??
OK. Second, To create own maps we are facing following problems,
1) In source section many fields are reflecting twice means in two segments i.e. LFA1 and ADRMAS like Name, City, Street, country etcu2026 whereas in Target section we have one field for the same so how to maps this fields.
2) In source, There are few fields like ADRNR which have values but in target we donot have any fields to map for the same, so how to handle thisu2026
Helpful answers will be rewarded,
Cheers

[CS2][AS] Make XML import map is calling a refresh on styles?

If this can be of use to someone else... it's probably not CS2,AS specific.. but this is what i use.
It's the second time i have a bug like this, where changing the order of my calls is fixing the problem. With this one, i was getting random missing font error (times(1)) while batching documents(wich make the batch script batch crash as there is a modal dialog open). Not always on the same document, it was really fustrating as i was not able to get my finger on the problem!
I actually knew the source of the problem as i had added a fix (maybe not the best solution, but it was working well) that actually was removing the style from all the text frame (i noticed that using map style to tag was not always working well(when text frame had overriden?), so that's why i added code to reset the style before doing a map. But i was not understanding why it was happening so randomly...
I tought at first it was happening during save (as it reopen the document) but after a few experimentation it looked like it was occuring during the import map redefinition (See code below: make XML import map with properties {markup tag:tStyle, mapped style:tStyle}).
Looks like the make XML import is calling some sort of document refresh wich then pop the font missing dialog (even with never interact as script preferences!)! (missing font is actually a bug i had also in other circumstances.. exemple when you have a extra return at the end of a tagged text (outside the tag)). A bit unexpected, i really tought that creating a xml import map was just creating data structure in document model to be used later on by the auto style call...
The problematic script:
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
set myDocument to document 1
tell myDocument
--Reset styles.
set applied character style of every text of every text frame of every spread to character style 1
set applied paragraph style of every text of every text frame of every spread to paragraph style 1
--Create a tag to style mapping.
set tList to name of every XML tag
set tNumItems to count of tList
repeat with i from 1 to tNumItems
set tStyle to item i of tList
make XML import map with properties {markup tag:tStyle, mapped style:tStyle}
end repeat
--Map the XML tags to the defined styles.
auto style
end tell
end tell
And the working solution (just moved the reset of style after the import map creation loop):
tell application "Adobe InDesign CS2"
set myDocument to document 1
tell myDocument
--Create a tag to style mapping.
set tList to name of every XML tag
set tNumItems to count of tList
repeat with i from 1 to tNumItems
set tStyle to item i of tList
make XML import map with properties {markup tag:tStyle, mapped style:tStyle}
end repeat
--Reset styles.
set applied character style of every text of every text frame of every spread to character style 1
set applied paragraph style of every text of every text frame of every spread to paragraph style 1
--Map the XML tags to the defined styles.
auto style
end tell
end tell

it doesnt print any server control message. in my "page_404.jsp" I am printing current date and time (to check if the server visited that page) everytime when i refresh "index.jsp" the server goes to "page_404.jsp" and prints the current date and time.
so basically the only message which the console shows is the current date/time which i am printing in the "page_404.jsp"
Thanks.

Explicity mapping between ActionScript and Java objects for the BlazeDS Messaging Service

The BlazeDS documentation shows how to explicitly map between ActionScript and Java objects. For example, this works fine for RPC services, e.g.
import flash.utils.IExternalizable;
import flash.utils.IDataInput;
import flash.utils.IDataOutput;
[Bindable]
[RemoteClass(alias="javaclass.User")]
public class User implements IExternalizable {
        public var id : String;
        public var secret : String;
        public function User() {
        public function readExternal(input : IDataInput) : void {
                id = input.readObject() as String;
        public function writeExternal(output : IDataOutput) : void {
                output.writeObject(id);
and
import java.io.Externalizable;
import java.io.IOException;
import java.io.ObjectInput;
import java.io.ObjectOutput;
import java.util.HashSet;
import java.util.Iterator;
import java.util.Set;
public class User implements Externalizable {
    protected String id;
    protected String secret;
    public String getId() {
        return id;
    public void setId(String id) {
        this.id = id;
    public String getSecret() {
        return secret;
    public void setSecret(String secret) {
        this.secret = secret;
    public void readExternal(ObjectInput in) throws IOException,
                ClassNotFoundException {
        id = (String) in.readObject();
    public void writeExternal(ObjectOutput out) throws IOException {
        out.writeObject(id);
If I called an RPC service that returns a User, the secret is not sent over the wire. Is it also possible to do this for the messaging service? That is, if I create a custom messaging adapter and use the function below, can I also prevent secret from being sent?
MessageBroker messageBroker = MessageBroker.getMessageBroker(null);
AsyncMessage message = new AsyncMessage();
message.setDestination("MyMessagingService");
message.setClientId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
message.setMessageId(UUIDUtils.createUUID());
User user = new User();
user.setId("id");
user.setSecret("secret");
message.setBody(user);
messageBroker.routeMessageToService(message, null);

Hi Martin. The way that AMF serialization/deserialization works for BlazeDS is the same regardless of which service is being used, so yes that code will work for messaging as well. On the server, the serialization/deserialization of messages happens at the endpoint. For an incoming message for example, the endpoint deserializes the message and then hands it off to the MessageBroker which decides which service/destination to deliver the message to.
That was a good question. Thanks for asking it. Lots of people are used to doing custom serialization/deserialization with the RPC services (RemoteObject/RemotingService) but I'm not sure everyone realizes they can do this for messaging as well.

IP VRF to VRF Definition Import-Map behaviour changes

Have the import rules changed from IP VRF syntax (IPV4 only) to VRF Definitions (IPV4&6)?
The issue being we have a management VRF which is used for access, monitoring, archiving. which works well in the IP vrf sytnax example:
ip vrf A-IPVPN
rd 9282:1002
import map Customer-Mgmt-Infrastructure
route-target export 9282:1002
route-target import 9282:1002
route-target import 9282:1999
ip vrf Customer-Mgmt
rd 9282:1999
import map Import-Customer-Mgmt
route-target export 9282:1999
route-target import 9282:1999
route-target import 9282:2010
route-target import 9282:1002
route-target import 9282:2011
route-target import 9282:1005
route-map Import-Customer-Mgmt permit 10
match ip address prefix-list Customer-Mgmt-CPE
ip prefix-list Customer-Mgmt-CPE: 2 entries
seq 5 deny 169.254.254.0/24
seq 10 permit 169.254.0.0/16 le 32
This allows all PE's to learn Customers Routes and import and export management details, I believe I have followed best practice and the result is what I would expect, however since creating some new customers with the vrf definition syntax it appears that the Import-Customer-Mgmt now filters out BGP routes within the Local VRF PE-PE, however the the routes are visible via :
show ip bgp vpnv4 rd
but not imported into BGP table.
Vrf definition
rf definition S-C-IPVPN
rd 9282:1005
route-target export 9282:1005
route-target import 9282:1005
route-target import 9282:1999
address-family ipv4
import map Customer-Mgmt-Infrastructure
exit-address-family
After hitting my head against a wall for longer than I would like to admit, I removed the import map and routes in the RD are installed into the BGP Table?
My question is, is this now default behaviour or is it a bug in our particular version (asr1002x-universalk9.03.09.01.S.153-2.S1.SPA.bin)
I had been considering upgrading our syntax using the vrf upgrade-cli, glad i didnt as this would have caused a major outage as we use the a fair amount of import maps with our Internet transit circuits.
If this is normal behaviour what it the best way to match and permit Local vrf RD? baring in mind I would like ideally to reuse the same route-map.
I will continue to investigate, but if anyone has had experience of this behaviour I would appropriate there input
Regard Neil

The following route map has no impact:
route-map Customer-Mgmt-Infrastructure-2 permit, sequence 10
Match clauses:
    community (community-list filter): S-C-IPVPN
Set clauses:
Policy routing matches: 0 packets, 0 bytes
Named Community expanded list S-C-IPVPN
    permit RT:9282:1005
Think i will need to lab up.

Value mapping, interface mapping, standard funtions and user defined functi

I like have more information abt live scenario's use of value mapping, interface mapping, standard funtions and user defined functions.
How to create user defined funtions and how to use it in XI?
thanks in advance

Hi,
Interface mappings register your mapping program for an interface pair in the Integration Repository. If you require a mapping at runtime, it is sufficient to select the interface mapping for the interface pair at configuration time .The Integration Server uses the interface mapping to identify associated mapping programs for request messages, response messages, fault messages, or all three.
Features
Executing Multiple Mapping Programs for One DirectionBy using an interface mapping you can execute multiple mapping programs consecutively for the transformation of a request or response message. In such cases, an interface mapping comprises multiple steps for which the following applies:
●     The steps are executed in the sequence specified (from top to bottom). The result of the mapping program from the previous step is forwarded to the mapping program of the subsequent step.
●     Each step can reference a mapping program that executes a 1:1, 1:n, n:1, or an m:n transformation. In the case of multi-mappings (1:n, n:1, or m:n), the previous step must create the same number of messages that the subsequent step expects.
●     Multi-mappings use one envelope to put all messages in one structure. If one of the steps references a multi-mapping program, all subsequent steps must use the same envelope.
The mapping for a request message comprises two message mapping programs: one 1:1 transformation and one 1:n transformation. Since the latter message mapping uses the multi-mapping envelope for both the target message and the source message, the message mapping for the 1:1 transformation must also create a transformation result with a multi-mapping envelope.
You do not strictly need to divide up one direction of the whole mapping into different steps. However, this enables all the message formats in one system landscape to be mapped to a central message format, for example. This results in less mapping programs being required because you no longer need to be able to map all the different message formats to each other
Activities
       1.      Create a message mapping on the design maintenance screen of the Integration Builder (see also: Creating an Object).
You can also create multiple interface mappings for the same interface pair.
       2.      Enter the source and target interfaces that require a mapping of the request message, the response message, the fault message, or all three, in the table of the same name. The following restrictions apply:
○     If you want to use the interface mapping in a transformation step in an integration process, you must only specify abstract message interfaces. Furthermore, all objects (integration process, interface mapping, and all objects that reference the interface mapping) must be in the same software component version. If you want to reference objects from underlying software component versions, you must access the objects from the Basis Objects branch (in the navigation tree or using an input help).
○     If you want to map multiple messages to each other by using a multi-mapping, you can only specify asynchronous interfaces (for further restrictions, see: Multi-Mappings). If any message interfaces are missing, you can also create them by using the function Create New Object ().
If the interface cannot be imported or cannot be created in the Integration Repository (in the case of an external adapter, for example), you must enter the interface names manually. However, it is not possible to check the technical name in this case.
       3.      To import the properties of the interfaces, choose Read Interfaces. The table in the lower area displays tab pages for the request message, response message, and if available, for the fault message, for each mode of the interfaces (either synchronous or asynchronous).
       4.      To develop an external mapping program, export the XSD schema of the respective request or response message as a zip file after you have imported the interfaces. The zip file can contain multiple schema files that reference each other, for example in a multi-mapping. In this case, the schema with the global message element has the name MainSchema.
       5.      To reference a mapping program for the respective message, you have the following options:
○     Select an existing mapping program from the Integration Repository by using the input help (). If this is a message mapping, the default setting of the input help only displays those message mappings that are found using the source and target message in the Integration Repository (in multi-mappings, the first source and target messages are used as the search criteria). However, you can also display any number of message mappings, for example, because you are constructing a mapping from several mapping programs with intermediate instances which have no message types.
○     You can create message mappings directly from the interface mapping. To do this, select the mapping type Message Mapping in the Type column. Position the cursor in the Name column and choose the function Create New Message Mapping () in the Mapping Program frame. The Integration Builder copies the specifications of the messages and their occurrence directly from the interface mapping.
An interface mapping can only reference mapping programs that belong to the same or an underlying software component version of the interface mapping. This ensures that the mapping program can be shipped together with the interface mapping (see: Software Logistics).
       6.      If it is not a mapping for a fault message, you can execute multiple mapping programs in succession for request and response messages:
○     To insert an additional line for a mapping program, choose .
○     To delete the registration for a mapping program, choose .
At runtime, the mapping programs are executed from top to bottom.
       7.      Save the interface mapping.

Value Exceptions - Import Map Update

Hello MDM Gurus,
We have the requirement to update the existing import map by unmapping two of the fields that we no longer required.
When we try unmapping the required fields and save as another map name, export, reimporting it and overwriting the existing map with the same name. But the problem is we are loosing all value mappings. we are facing issue getting loads of value exceptions as all value mappings are gone.
Please we need experts advices to resolve this since we no longer need that two fields getting imported in to the repository.
We need a solution to unmap that two fields and keep all existing value mappings.
Save Update not works for filed mappings, it only works for value mappings.
Thank you very much in advance for the suggestions and inputs.
Example :
Field1 and Field2 Unmapped, We saved the Map by Save -> we are loosing all value exceptions ( As it stores only present config)
Field1 and Field2 Unmapped, We saved the Map by Save Update -> When reimport the map again, we are seeing this field1 and field2 still mapped.
Field1 and Field2 Unmapped, We saved the map by Save As -> Still it does like First Scenario.
Please Advice.

Hi Smartsoft,
Just try this below procedure and revert with result.
1. Open the existing map.
2. Remove all the fields from matching field under Match Records tab.
3. Now unmap these two not required fields under Map Field/Value tab.
4. Afterwards, set again all the matching fields like earlier under Match records tab. Now make sure that under your Import Status tab Action Item: Ready to Import. Once it is done.
5. Now try with Save As option as a new map in order you have had existing correct map as a reference for future.
If it work properly then you can overwrite this new map name with existing map. Kindly revert.
Regards,
Mandeep Saini

Import map file

Hi Experts,
I can see that form MDM Console the Ports table under Admin node has field with type "Inbound" and the name of the import map.
Could anybody tell how to get this Import map file from the repository if my remote system is set up "Inbound/outbound" as MDM ?
Thanks for your help
Kind regards,
Wei Dona

Hi,
In order to connect and to save map files please following the following steps:
If you are using text file then follow the steps as
1.Open Import manager.Select repository.enter username &password
2.Select Type as Delimited text/Excel/Access and so on.
3.Enter the source file .
4)Enter the delimiter if Delimited text (eg:space,:,; etc)
5.Select the source and destination table.
6.Map the corresponding source and destination fields.
7.Then go to match records tab select the field as per which the records will b imported.
8.Go to File-Save.Enter the map name.
9.Execute the import.
Next time you want to edit the map or execute the same goto file-Open-map name.
Hope this give some information.
Cheers
Santosh.
