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.

Problem with CC Receiver with AS2 Adapter Seeburger

Hi,
I try to test the AS2 Adapter with Receiver channel y one server and Sender channel in second server, but in the Receiver channel, I have the error :
"MP: Exception caught with cause com.sap.engine.services.jndi.persistent.exceptions.NameNotFoundException: Object not found in lookup of as2."
I find the error and I found the URL Error in AS2 adapter. Object not found in lookup of as2.. Its urgent..!! with the same problem, but I have the same configuration in the Party of the receiver and the Sender, the same AS2ID name, and try with the solution in the forum respect the Party name in the scenario of the Receiver, but don't work.
My scenario is send an IDOC from R/3 to a partner with the AS2 receiver channel.
Is my fisrt scenario with AS2 adapter. Somebody help me please with any example or with any idea about the solution to my problem?
Greetings,

SEEBURGER integration using PI: BIS, BIC, AS2 Adapter, FTP ?

Hi All,
we are exploring on EDI project, where sap ecc is integrated with an seeburger edi partner via PI.
the integration involves: EDI ANSI X12 documents like 850, 855, and UN/EDIFACT documents like DESADV
for this while searching, i came across:
1. the wiki content created by Prateek Raj Srivastava, http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/SeeburgerSuiteforSAPPI
2. a presentation by sam raju http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/00f9cdf5-d812-2a10-03b4-aff3bbf792bf?QuickLink=events&overridelayout=true
I was trying to find out, what all we need in PI..
in PI, what type of communication channel can be used,
can we use FTP adapter, that is comes by default in PI.
or is it necessary to buy something (adapter or content) from SEEBURGER.
after searching little more on seeburger front, got to know that there are:
BIS (Business Integration Server)
BIC (Business integration Converter)
AS2 adapter.
is BIC is an adapter, that we can select as adapter type, while creating the communication channel.
the presentation by sam raju, describes "Configuring BIC as Module", if BIS is configured as a module, what is the type of communication channel in ID.
is AS2 adapter is part of BIS or BIC.
for integration using PI, out of BIS, BIC, AS2, what all is minumum required?
what are the roles of BIS, BIC and AS2 in the context of integration using PI.
thanks in advance.
Madhu_1980

>>in PI, what type of communication channel can be used,
Any. Using Seeburger Adapter for EDI communication is not mandatory.
>>can we use FTP adapter, that is comes by default in PI.
Yes, you can use it to send even EDI files.
>>or is it necessary to buy something (adapter or content) from SEEBURGER
To convert EDI-xml file to EDI, you have to use Seeburger BIC module which has to be purchased.
>>is BIC is an adapter, that we can select as adapter type, while creating the communication channel.
No, it is an adapter module.
>> BIS is configured as a module, what is the type of communication channel in ID.
Don't get confused between BIC and BIS. BIC is a module and BIS is a separate middleware provided by Seeburger just like PI. You can use BIC module in any channel which supports use of adapter module.
>>is AS2 adapter is part of BIS or BIC.
AS2 can come with BIS middleware. It is type of adapter while BIC is module.
>>for integration using PI, out of BIS, BIC, AS2, what all is minumum required?
For EDI communication, BIC is required (if you don't want to create your own modules). AS2 is required only when some partner demands the use of AS2 protocol for communication.
>>what are the roles of BIS, BIC and AS2 in the context of integration using PI.
Already explained. Forget BIS when you already have PI.

Issue with AS2 Adapter monitoring

Hi All,
I am using Seeburger AS2 Adapter in our XI project we are able to post and retrieve
messages through AS2 communication,but we are facing the problem of monitoring the messages if any incoming messages failed in the AS2 adapter only due to some network failure or some other issue we are not able to track which message is failed and what payload it contains as in Adapter Monitoring or communication channel monitoring AS2 Adapter shows the only "Failed Session"
Do we have any application to monitor it in XI.
Regards
Gaurav

Hi Gaurav,
Have you tried <b>Tcode SXMB_MONI</b> . In this by giving some details about your scenario, it will give you the information about all the messages which are successful or not. Here you can see the payload af successful messages and error in failed message by clicking on the perticular message.
hope this will help.

How to test Scenario with AS2 adapter..!!!Very Very Urgent..!!

Hi All,
We have provided the partner details like AS2ID,URL,Port and certificates.
They ask me to do some sample testing whether files are reaching to partner system or not.
I done all the required steps in IR and ID...
1. Can anyone suggest me how to do the testing
2. Where to monitor for AS2 messges?
3. How to see the our output files whether we are sending the correct files or not?
4. Outbound -- How we will come to know whether file reached to partner or not?If we set sync Mdn.. where we can see the MDN..?
5. Inbound-- How we will come to know whether file has sent to us or not?
Someone pls explain step by step how to do the testing using AS2 adapters for both Outbound and Inbound.
Its Very Very urgent.
Waiting for your replys..
Regards
Deepthi.

Hi Deepthi,
1. Can anyone suggest me how to do the testing
A) Like message monitoring in RWB we have a particular link to monitor the message through differnt seeburger adapter.
I dont remember the link right now.
2. Where to monitor for AS2 messges?
A) Through the same link.
3. How to see the our output files whether we are sending the correct files or not?
A) u mean to check the output file data or strucutre if strucutre is not proper then u will get the error message and ur mapping fails.
4. Outbound -- How we will come to know whether file reached to partner or not?If we set sync Mdn.. where we can see the MDN..?
I have no idea.
5. Inbound-- How we will come to know whether file has sent to us or not?
File is sent over wan so when it will be pickd up by XI.
Thnx

Receiver AS2 Adapter : Empty Message Handling

Hello Experts ,
We are trying to work on following requirement .
File -> PI -> AS2 ( File) ( We are using Pranke to drop our message to the receiver system) (MDN ack too is in place )
There are times when none of the source records are valid and we have an empty payload post mapping.
In AS2 adapter we are using StrictXML2Plain.
Scenario works fine for all target messages which have data and a file is created at the receiver end. MDN ACK works fine too.
Problem is when we have empty target payloads , We get following error in communication Channel monitoring.

Has anyone handled such situation ? Is there any workaround at the SAP end to handle this issue ?
Or is this to be handled at the Pranke end ?
Attaching the Seeburger AS2 monitor error as well for empty messages ,

Hi,
here is the my requirment one source -> two target interfacess (0..1)
If u have 2 target interfaces,then this is not suffice..... u should make it as 0..unbounded both in operation mapping and message mapping.
But based on ur requirements posted above i guess u have only one inbound interface at a time based on some conditions....
But,
<messages>
<messages1>
based on condition first message type not created in mapping.
<messgaes2>
The error u r getting is because.... u want only one interface in target at a time....
Then u should not generate Message1 also in the target.
So avoid mapping to message1 if u want only message2.
If both message1 and message2 are created in target means... it is triggering for two interfaces.... so avoid one message1 or message2... based on some conditions u have..
Still nt solved do post...

Content based receiver determination with Seeburger AS2 adapter

We are planning to use the Seeburger AS2 adapter on our XI 3.0 installation to post custom XML documents to XI from external business partners. The problem we have is to do the receiver and interface determination based on the xml message type that is submitted. How can we identify what is the name of the root xml node (which is representing the message type that was submitted to us) during the receiver determination and specify conditions for the receiver determination based on this? We can not use the Seeburger Classifier module here as this is only determining the mapping name to be used for an EDI conversion but can not handle any type of XML message.

Rudy,
I think the easiest way would still be the ReceiverDetermination and creating an XSD that contains the main important TAGs from the different messages.
That should allow you to test for the existing of certain important TAGs or check the value of some TAGS.
I don´t know about aedaptive-adapters, but I don´t think that they are Drummond-Certified. Check out...
http://www.drummondgroup.com/html-v2/as2-companies.html
Without this certification, a lot of your partners might not allow you to use this adapter if you wanna make AS2 with them.

Client Auth and SSL with Seeburger AS2 adapter

Hello All,
We are using the Seeburger AS2 adapter in our landscape and I am in the process of setting the same up and have made quite some progress in all my issues.
and I hope that you will be able to help me out.
1. Server SSL on Receiver AS2 adapter
I am sending a message from XI using the Receiver AS2 adapter to my AS2 test tool using Server SSL.
This is working perfectly fine. In my AS2 adapter I have selected HTTPS as the protocol and the message goes via SSL to the target test tool, is processed and the MDN comes back to XI perfectly.
The issue here is :
Irrespective of what is provided in the Server Certificate ( Keystore) , the message goes to my target test tool. I even left this field blank with no certificate entry and still the SSL connection was established and the message went to the target system.
Is there no validation that XI does here? I am lost what is the use of this entry Server Certificate if XI blindly accepts all SSL connections.
I am using a Decentral Adapter Engine with LoadBalancer.
2. Client Auth on Receiver AS2 Adapter
I tried to perform Client Authentication by proving my Server's private key in the AS2 adapter. The corresponding public key is loaded in my partner's Keystore.
XI error's with the error "SSL handshake failed - Bad Certificate" .
I am not sure why XI is erroring out here and I have a feeling that I have misunderstood the use of the fields in the AS2 adapter,
Server Certificate ( Keystore) and Private Key for Client Authentication.
Has anyone tried this? If further details are needed, I will be able to furnish the same.
Regards,
Bhavesh

Hello Jens,
Thanks for your reply.
1. The Encryption and Signature part of the Interface is working absolutely fine and I use the same concept highlighted by you - The Sender always signs the message with his private key and encrypts with message with the partner's public key in the corresponding agreement.
2. Server SSL is also working perfectly fine, i.e, when XI initiates the connection the SSL connection is established to the partner.
3. Mutual Auth was the issue where I was getting the bad certificate issue.
To investigate further I moved the same setup to my Central Adapter Engine and all the issues I had described above seem to have vanished and things work exactly as I was expecting, ie.
The field : Server Certificate (Keystore) is used to provide the Target System's Server SSL's public Certificate.
The field : Private Key for Client Authentication is used where XI provides its own Server SSL's private key for Mutual / Client Authentication.
The problem seems to be with my Decentral Adapter engine and not my central adapter engine and so I guess,
1. I either have the incorrect certificates on my Decentral Adapter Engine.
2. I also have 2 instances of a Decentral Adapter Engine with a Webdispatcher and so maybe the 2 Visual Admin's of the 2 Decentral AE are inconsistent.
3. Maybe it was just a long day and I did something wrong
Will investigate further for the root cause but I am glad that my concepts remain intact and things do work as I expected them to work.
A blog on all this is on the cards sometime soon.
Cheers,
Bhavesh

Seeburger AS2 Adapter with HTTPS transport

The AS2 adapter is generating the following error.
Message processing failed. Cause: javax.resource.ResourceException: Fatal exception: javax.resource.ResourceException: SEEBURGER AS2: HTTP-Client component init failed # java.security.PrivilegedActionException: com.seeburger.ksm.cryptoapi.exception.CryptoApiException: Could not retrieve alias collection., SEEBURGER AS2: HTTP-Client component init failed # java.security.PrivilegedActionException: com.seeburger.ksm.cryptoapi.exception.CryptoApiException: Could not retrieve alias collection.
According to documentation, the SSL Certificate (keystore) field should point to the keystore, and not a specific key. in my communication channel it does. Thep rivate key points to my key. I have verified both of these entries are correct.
Other than that, this scenario is configured the same as my previously configured scenarios that use HTTP, all working without issue.

Thank you, we had already done that.
What we found however was the entry for the "keystore" in the communication channel, we needed to fully name the key to be used, as opposed to simply the keystore.
Once we did that, we cycled the as2 adapter and were able to send a message successfully.

How to deal Inhouse files using Seeburger AS2 adapter...!!!

Hi all,
Has anyone managed to configure the Seeburger AS2 adapter for XI successfully to process multiple inbound message types.
We have an issue here with inbound messages being received by the AS2 adapter. We currently have it configured for inbound deliveries(Which deals with EDI files) which is working fine. The issue is that we would now like to send other messages as well. It seems the AS2 adapter only looks at the sender/receiver party combination to determine the correct sender agreement, but does not look at the message type which is a limitation. I have heard mention of a splitter module which can be used to distinguish between different messages and pass them to the correct sender agreement for processing, information on this is thin on the ground to non existent.
I have few custom Inhouse files where i need to recieve through AS2 adapter.
I need to differentiate the messages hitting to my communication channel.
ex:
1st message will be having
HDR PICKS
2nd message will be having
HDR PURCH
so based on the second field which has "PICKS" or "PURCH" , i need to pass the message to run the corresponding map.
How i need to configure to acheive these kind of custom Inhouse files through AS2 adapter??
Do i need to use splitter for these as well?? If yes how i need to use?
Is there any setting we can make at Sender AS2 adapter to differentiate each message??
Waiting for the answers.
Kindly reply if anyone knows.
Thanks&Regards
Seema.

Hi,
i have setup a scenario with edifact (different message types) using as2.
first i had to create a mapping using bic.
edifact_xxxx
in: edifact_service
out: functional acknowledgement.
in the mapping code i adjusted the called mapping, standard it will use see* changed it to e2x* (custom mapping)
in your case using flatfiles maybe you should take a look at the VDA structure, these files are also defined under inhouse.
when you define a input file adapter are you getting a classifier message?
like
<classifier><type>Edifact</type><classifierMappingID>XXXX</classifierMappingID><encoding>US-ASCII</encoding><additionalIdentifier></additionalIdentifier></classifier>

Seeburger AS2 Adapter

Hi,
I need few information how to implement seeburger adapter(Using AS2 or FTP) with XI. I have a requirement to convert the EDI Ansi X12 messages from a EDI system and post it into a R/3 system using XI.
The client system(EDI system) is in US has VAN and we have the R/3 in India. So do we need to establish a VAN connectivity or it can directly access the client VAN to take the EDI messages.
Do clarify whether to go for AS2 or FTP, and what are the advantages of each.
I went thro few documents from Seeburger which comes up with the package of Generic FTP adapters or we have a Standalone AS/2, or BIS:HUB and spoke.

Nithiyanandam

HI,
Brief about the FTP/VAN adapter:
The SEEBURGER FTP/VAN Adapter is responsible for transmitting files according to the File Transfer Protocol, with the particular support of various VANs. This protocol was installed as a user gateway protocol by several of the largest VAN providers, such as IBM, GE and Sterling IIB and Sterling Commerce.
The FTP/VAN adapter must be configured in the configuration part of the Integration Builder. The adapter is based on the Adapter Framework and is executed by the SAP J2EE Adapter Engine as shown in the diagram below.
The FTP/VAN Adapter supports the following protocols:
IBMIE VAN, all report options.
GEIS (GeMarkIII) and GeMark3000, all report options, report file is only extracted, if needed.
EXITE (ECODEX), EDIFACT file processing, DISPATCHED reports.
Sterling Commerce and Sterling IIB.
MCI EDI*Net.
The following FTP options are supported:
SSL, both IMPLICIT and AUTH_TLS support, server authentication.
All popular FTP proxy types like: USERWL, USERWOL, SITEWL, OPENWOL.
Active and Passive connection modes.
"KeepAlive" feature.
Binary, ASCII and custom transfer types.
Refer the below thresd which taks about the AS2 adapter configuration inroder to convert the EDI to XML message the similar configuration needs to be done in case of VAN/FTP adapter.
Re: Pls.. Help Needed.. Seeburger Mapping Names..!!
Seeburger adapters like FTP,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.
Seeburger provides the std mapping program which has to be deploy on to XI and we need to give it to module tab in adapter which does the conversion.
Here are the some of the std mapping program which is provided by seeburger.
See_E2X_INVOIC_UN_D96A
See_E2X_INVOIC_UN_D99A
See_E2X_ORDERS_UN_D96A
See_E2X_OSTRPT_EAN_D96A.
We need to take the license from seeburger and we need to deploye the seeburger adapters then only we can see in adapter list on XI.
Thanks and Regards,

Seeburger AS2 Adapter sending message error

I have configured a FAck scenario as described by the Seeburger Manual and am testing a AS2 messaging scenario with a vendor (basically the inbound EDI message is passed to the Seeburger splitter to create a new message for the inbound order, and then the existing payload is mapped to a Funcational Acknowledgement and sent back to the vendor). I receive the message fine and the message split to create the order works fine, however when the FAck is passed to the AS2 receiver adapter (for transmission to the 3rd party) I get the following error:
LOCATION [null, null, 91fcf4f0-5223-11dd-9c8d-5cd90a641602] >> ERROR TYPE [, COMPONENT_ERROR, not retryable, not fatal]] >> DESCRIPTION [AS2 Adapter failure >> MID

I'm not sure where the "duplicate" message comes from as this message definitely has not been sent before.
If I extract the same inbound message from the payload and pass it in using a file adapter (rather than the AS2 sender adapter) then the functional acknowledgement is created and transmitted to the vendor without any issues ...
Has anyone who has had some experience with the Seeburger AS2 adapter got any possible suggestions for resolving this issue?

Jason

Seeburger AS2 Adapter - Dynamic Attributes

Dear all,
We have a scenario where, we are sending an IDOC from our SAP system via XI to one of our partner using AS2.
We have to manipulate the file name at the receiver end using the dynamic attributes of the AS2 communication channel.
As per the documentation and the following threads
Re: File to AS2 File Name? we have done the necessary configuration in the communication channel. The following activites are done
Selected the checkbox "Use dynamic attributes"
Under the Module tab
In Processing sequence added a new entry
Number 1
Module Name : localejbs/Seeburger/solution/as2
Module Type : Local enterprise bean
Module Key : "dynfile"
Under the Module Configuration added the following details
Module key : "dynfile"
Parameter Name : "http://seeburger.com/xi/AS2/dtAS2FileName"
Parameter Value : "DYNFILENAME"
However, I understand that this configuration is incomplete, as somewhere i need to pass the value to the variable "DYNFILENAME".
As per the thred Re: File to AS2 File Name?, Mr Srinivas Reddy mentioned 5 steps, however I am not clear about the step 3 & 4.
FYI : What I want to map as the file name is the Parter Profile in the EDIDC40 segment of the idoc and the date+time stamp
Many thanks for the help , in advance
Regards : Bobby Bal

Hi,
Use the below UDF in your mapping..
public String FileName(String a,Container container){
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://seeburger.com/xi/AS2","dtSubject");
conf.put(key, a);
As per your requirement, Use Concatenate function Idoc + Date + Time .
Pass the resultant value to the UDF and pass this to any unused Target node.
IDOC + Time+Date --> UDF --> Target node.
In your receiver AS2 adapter, Click on use dynamic attributes and Subject check boxes.
If you want to use other Dynamic attributes like dtAS2FileName, dtAS2ContentType ..
Simply replace the dtSubject with dtAS2FileName or dtAS2ContentType . No need to use any modules.
Thanks
Deepthi.
