Searching a Field In Source or Target Message in Message Mapping

Hey Guys,
I came accross this peculiar behaviour and it keeps bugging me , I could search any field in source or target message in message mapping in PI 7.0 by copying the path( /ns1:MaestroAcreedores/Acreedores/ClaveDeGrupo or any idoc field /FIDCCP02/IDOC/E1FIKPF/BUDAT ) but in PI 7.1 i cant , its giving me an error String /ns1:MaestroAcreedores/Acreedores/ClaveDeGrupo not found , i can only search the field independently.Can anyone please help me out in this.

Hi
I am not sure whether it worked in 7.0 or not, but having checked myself i can confirm that it is not working in 7.1 in my system also.
For alternative, you can check by changing into source text view where it will display as xml. Here when you search the keyword, it would display you the hierarchy better than normal view.
I dont think there is any other alternative. although I would say in the worst case scenario you would not have more than 10-15 occurrences of same element in an idoc.

Entering Source and Target Values in Value Mapping

Hi,
Is there any auomative way of entering source and target values in Value Mapping or FixValues instead of manually entering the values.
I have around 400 values to be entered on both sides.....just thinking of an easy way to do it....
Thanks for suggestions.

Hi,
Use value mapping replication
chk this link as to what SAP docs say on value mapping replication

The source and target structure have a different number of fields

Hi,
I am new to workflow and I am trying to create an attachment in Workflow (SAP ECC 6.0) and pass it through to a User Decision (User Decision works fine) however the workflow is failing on the attachment step with u2018The source and target structure have a different number of fieldsu2019.

Runtime error - Data objects in Unicode programs cannot be converted. The statement "MOVE src TO dst" requires that the operands "dst" and "src" are convertible. Since this statement is in a Unicode program, the special conversion rules for Unicode programs apply.
In this case, these rules were violated.

Workflow errors in Attachment step (however Office document can be viewed in details for step).

Problem has now been resolved. Problem was related to use of swr_att_id structure and swc_set_element statement in BOR program - problem resolved by only setting w/f container to swr_att_id-doc_id.

Issue in mapping the same source and target fields

Hi All,
I am working on PI 7.0 and currently I am connecting to PI 7.0 via citrix desktop . Problem here is : in the mapping , direct mapping option that is available to map the same source and target fields is disabled . I do know that this is due to some java version issue .
What I want to know is there any possibilty of solving this issue without installing an updated java version ?
Regards
Vinay P.

I've faced the same for many times and all of that were due to Java version.
1st of all, you have to check the authorizations you have. If you have enough (DEVELOPER_J2EE, CONTENT_ORGANIZER_J2EE, and so), and - obvious but very often forgotten - you have to assure you're trying to change it in the message mapping change mode On.
Then, last shot should be downgrade your Java version.
The 1.4.2 JRE version allow you to use not only the Mapp the Identical field but also Dependencies, Clear Mapping and some other tools/buttons. As mentioned above, if there's a fix in the new Java releases, I do not know (hope so) and would appreciate if you could let us know.
Tks.

Hi,
What is the SP that you are using. If it is XI 3.0 and SP less than 14 then it is not possible. You need to use Abstract interface.
And why do you need Multimapping in the first place. You can do a simple mapping and in the receiver determination you can add more Business Server/System. Each Service/System you will have seprate IB interface and a separate Interface mapping.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks,

GG configuration - Changes are not replicating from Source to Target

Hi,
I am new in golden gate configuration. I have set up GG between two oracle databases to replicate the changes from source to target database.
But when I update or insert in HR.JOBS table in source, it is not propagating to target. I didn't find any error in error log.
Could you please help me to suggest the configuration I did wrong here?

Mapping multiple source value to one target value in value mapping

Hello experts,
In my scenario, i need to map more than one source value to one target value in value mapping. Like:
1        TenderPickup
2        TenderLoan
7        TenderPickup
101     TenderPickup
102     TenderLoan
107     TenderPickup
But when I enter the same target value for the second time and try to save it, it gives me an error saying value mapping already exists.
But this should logically be allowed. How can this be done. Please provide a solution.
Thanks,
Yash

Hi Prabhu,
When i right click on the target field, it gives me only 3 options:
1) Insert Row
2) Delete Value Mapping
3) Value Mapping in all agencies
I dont see nay option for duplicating rows.
What I hae done is in ID i clicked on TOOLS and then VALUE MAPPING. I checked the option "Value Mapping Agencies" and gave my source and target agencies detials. Then i clicked on DISPLY and in the next page I have 3 columns - Value for <source agency>, Value for <target agency> and Group name.
When I give duplicate values in the column Vlaue for <target agency>, it doesnt allow me to and if i right click in this column, i get the above mentioend options.
Please point out where i m going wrong.
Thanks,
Yash

The source or target cluster ID is not present on the system!

Hi,
During System copy, we are facing issue "Run Java Migration Tool kit"
Phase of Sapinst.
I could found exact error messages sequences which may help you in
understanding the problem.:
==========================================
#Start preparing switch.
#The switch.properties could not be read. Reason: switch.properties (No
such file or directory)
The source or target cluster ID is not present on the system! The
current (source) cluster ID is 787075 and the new (target) cluster ID
is 3137675
==========================
Last error message might be quite familiar to you as this is very
common error message however just wanted to inform you that the "SAP
Note 966752 - Java system copy problems with the Java Migration
Toolkit" could not help me out.
all the possible entries have been updated and retried but no success.
Please suggest if you have face similar kind of problem.
Thanks.
Cheers !!!
Ashish

Hi,
cluster ID is just combination of below parameters:
In our case, my source system (ABC) was refreshed from another system (XYZ) recently
so while installing target system ( DEF), I changed the source system details from ABC to XYZ in below file and retried the
SAPinst screen. System copy has got completed successfully.
Open the file <installation directory>/jmt/cluster_id_switch.properties and edit the line
src.ci.sid=
src.ci.instance.number=
src.ci.instance.name=
src.ci.host=
If in your case source system is not refreshed recently; You may try with functional host name or OS host name etc. details for above parameters.
If this does not work check details of "SAP Note 966752 - Java system copy problems with the Java

Target message in Mesasage mapping

Hi,
I am trying to do a file to SOAP scenario. I have set up data types for the source file. I have an XML target file(not the structure but with tags and values). I need to bring it to the target in the Message mapping to do my mapping.
In XI 30 it allows XML file browsed from local file..or in repository it allows external definitions whereby I can convert it into a DTD or WSDL and load it..or do I need to create the data type for the XML target manually...and then pull it into the mapping interface???
I am not sure which would be the best approach..I am planning to use a SOAP adapter to send the outgoing XML msg. If I import XML file from the local browser I am getting the values also..Is it possible to just get the structure of the XML document.?
Any help would be highly appreciated...

Dear Krishnan-
The decision to map to the the header tag <SoldTo> really depends on the cardinality of that particular node. If the object is mandatory in your XML strucutre(ie: 1:1), then there is no need to map anything to this tag. If it is optional (ie 0:1 or 0:n), then you will need to map something to it based on some qualifier that is in the source for the children tags (nodes/elements).
Target Example:
<PO>
_<...>
__<Body>
___<SoldTo>
____<Address>
____</Address>
___</SoldTo>
__</Body>
_</...>
</PO>
If the <SoldTo> is optional in your External Definition, then you should map something to your <SoldTo> node in your graphical mapping. The existence of value(s) in the subordinate node (ie <Address> tag) does not automatically generate the parent tag (ie <SoldTo>) if the cardinality of the parent node is optional. You must map something to generate the optional parent node. This can be done in a number of ways. The most logical would be to select some criteria based on the commonality of the parent and child nodes. Or if you don't care, just hardcode any constant string. However, then you always get the node which defeats something being optional.
Here's some pseudocode for ya...
Parent Example: SoldTo CreateIf PARVW=AG (Assuming you are using and INVOIC01 or ORDERS05 idoc as your source)
Child Example: Address Equals "STRAS" IF PARVW=AG.
In the end, you would not need to map the SoldTo in your example unless it's an optional tag.
Try it and let us know!
Bon Chance!

Since Firefox updated yesterday, it won't respond to addresses in the url field or search terms in the search engine field. I can only go to addresses already in my bookmarks.

When I type an address into the url field the browser will not load the page...it just sits there as though waiting for me to press enter. Also it won't respond to the recently used addresses that show in the dropdown menu. It will also not respond when I try to use the search engine field (google). This started yesterday after Firefox automatically updated to version 3.5.9. I don't get an error message, just no response at all.

Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
* Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
See:
* [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
* [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
* Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
* Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")
This can also be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

OWB 10g -- Can't Create Database Links for Data Source and Target

We installed OWB 10g server components on a Unix box running Oracle 10g (R2) database. The Designer Repository is in one instance. The Runtime Repository and the Target are in another instance. The OWB client component was installed on Windows XP. We create a data source module and a target module in OWB. The data source is on another Unix box running Oracle 9i (R2) database. We try to create database links for data source module and target module, respective. But when we created and tested the DB links, the DB links were failed.
For the database link of data source, we got the following error message:
Testing...
Failed.
SQL Exception
Repository Error:SQL Exception..
Class Name: CacheMediator.
Method Name: getDDEntryFromDB.
Repository Error Message: ORA-12170: TNS:Connect timeout occurred
For the database link of target , we got the following error message:
Testing...
Failed.
API2215: Cannot create database link. Please contact Oracle Support with the stack trace and the details on how to reproduce it.
Repository Error:SQL Exception..
Class Name: oracle.wh.ui.integrator.common.RepositoryUtils.
Method Name: createDBLink(String, String, String, String).
Method Name: -1.
Repository Error Message: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00933: SQL command not properly ended.
However, we could connect to the two databases (data source and target) using the OWBs utility SQL Plus.
Please help us to solve this problem. Thank you.

As I said prior the database link creation should work from within the OWB client (also in 10).
Regarding your issue when deploying, have you registered your target locations in the deployment manager and did you first deployed your target location's connector which points out to your source?
I myself had some problems with database link creations in the past and I can't remember exactly what they were but it had something to do with
- the use of abnormal characters in the database link name
- long domain name used in as names.default_domain in my sqlnet.ora file
What you can do is check the actual script created when deploying the database link so see if there's something strange and check if executing the created script manually works or not.

No mapping for Same structure in source and target

Hi Experts,
I want to transfer the source structure to two receivers . Here source and target structures are same so i dont need mapping.
My question is how many DT,MT and MI required .. mapping required or not.
Thanks in Advance
CS

hi CS,
here in your scenario as u have told that source and reciver are of same structure . definitely you didn't need any mapping . and you have to create two data type(one for sender and one for receiver) , two message types(one for sender and one for receiver)) , and two message interfaces(one for sender and one for receiver).
while creating message types it asks for data type and while creating message interface it asks for message type only . as the structures of sender and receiver are same then inspite of having two receivers we have to create ony one message interface on sender side . later the adapter will take care of further proceedings
but in case of configuration you have to import three business systems . one for sender and two for receiver systems . and you have to configure the communications channels accordingly. as per the receivers accepting the structures you have to use the relevant adaptors .

SAP XI 3.0 Same source for different target in std Value mapping function

Hi,
We have replicated 4 value mapping entries from R3 to XI having the same Context , Agency , Schema and value for source, but each of the 4 values has the same Context and Agency but different Schema and Value respectively.
To illusstate :
Source                             |Target
Context Agency Schema    Value -----Context Agency   Schema     Value
CS1      AS1      SS1      1        CT1       AT1      ST1       A
CS1      AS1      SS1      1        CT1       AT1      ST2       A
CS1      AS1      SS1      1        CT1       AT1      ST3       B
This value mapping is not working and we always get the source value as the result.
We are wondering if the reason for this is that we use the same source for different targets. But we are not 100 % sure of it.
When I read the documentation on Value mapping or when we use the value mapping standard function in graphical mapping, we pass the context , agency and schema of the source and target respectively and the source value to get the target value, and this combination is always unique in our case as seen in the above example.
Has anyone faced this kind of an issue, if yes I would appreciate if anyone could help us resolve this problem.
Thanks in advance.
regards,
Advait

Hi Advait,
From the below what I understand is that you are not able to do value mapping for the follwoing
1     A
2     A
3     B
As value mapping allow one to one mapping only. Please do it like as mentioned below
1     1*A
2     2*A
3     3*B
Then in the graphical mapping of Integration Repository do the mapping for the same as shown below
source field > VALUEMAPPING> UDF--> TARGET Field
In UDF suppress the value of 1* , 2* , 3* which can be done as follows
create one UDF with one input field
//write the code as below to suppress the field
return input.substring(2);
Here the davantage of using 1* , 2* , 3* etc is that you have the option to use value mapping for 100 values which I think is not normally the case for any Interface.
If you have same source you can do the same thing for that.
Hope this helps you to resolve your query.
Thanks & Regards

Can source and target tables be the same

Hi there,
I need to restate profit center column in the delivery fact table. Historical Profit Centers need to be populated since today is the first time we brought in Profit Center field from LIPS table. The source for the delivery fact table is SAP LIPS table. so what I did is:
joined the LIPS and delivery fact table on (LIPS.delivery number = deliveryfacttable.delivery number & LIPS.delivery line item number = deliveryfacttable.delivery line item number) to get the profit center.
So the source and the target delivery fact table are the same. Is this a good practice becuase Data services warns me that the source and target tables are the same.
Please let me know a better alternative approach to this OR a better approach to restate fields for historical data. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
samqiue

Arun,
actually the LIPS resides on another server and in order to fetch data I have to write an R3 ABAP data flow, so I cant use it directly in a lookup.
Except what Im thinking based on your reply to use a lookup table is: that I will extract 3 colums (delivery number, delivery line item number and profit center) to a table and then use the lookup.
Thanks.

samique
