Sender / Receiver on DEBMAS customer IDOCs mapped from XI

Hello XI experts,
I'm hoping you can help me resolve a question.
In our system, customers are maintained in an AFS ERP system. They are then distributed to MDM, via XI, using DEBMDM messages.
We have a second (Retail) ERP system that also needs the customer data. An XI colleague has created a mapping, so that the DEBMDM IDOC from AFS is mapped to DEBMAS and ADRMAS IDOCs, which are sent to AFS.
Functionally this works fine: the customer data from AFS goes to both MDM and retail as expected.
The question is on the IDOCs arriving in Retail. They have the same logical system for the Sender and Receiver, which is the Retail logical system. So it looks like the IDOCs have been created in Retail and then processed, rather than being created in XI. However in XI, in transaction IDX5, we can see IDOC numbers. I'm a developer with no XI experience, so I may be misunderstanding how XI works.
- Does XI actually create an IDOC locally and then send it out?
- Or would XI be calling some kind of RFC in my Retail system to build the IDOC there?
- If the IDOC is built locally, can anyone suggest why I am getting the sending partner to be the same as the receiver?
Even if the sending and receiving systems are set in the XI mapping, the values still get overwritten with the Retail logical system.
Many thanks, Roger

Roger,
In the Receiver IDoc Adapter , 3 options are available.
Apply Cntrol Record Values From payload.
When you select this option, the values of these fields are filledfrom the idoc payload,
+MESCOD
· MESCFT
· TEST
· EXPRSS
· STD
· STDVRS
· STDMES
· SNDSAD
· SNDLAD
· RCVSAD
· RCVLAD
· REFINT
· REFGRP
· REFMES
· STATUS
· DIRECT
· OUTMOD
· CREDAT
· CRETIM+
Take Sender From Payload
Selecting this fills the values for Sender System with values of SNDPRN and SNDPRT.
Take receiver from payload
Receiver Partner Names values are filled from the payload with values of RCVPRN and RCVPRT.
These are the only values from which you can pass the value from payload, rest of the fields are filled by default.

Custom IDOC Creation from scratch

Dear Experts
This is the first time I am working on an ALE/EDI request from the client from scratch.
This request is for establishing an outbound
data connection to FedEx for the outbound shipping (from FedEx) process. The IDOCs will then be process via a xyz server(our side) and sent to a fedex abcd system. The data connection between xyz and abc has already been established.
The tasks for modifying SAP for the outbound connection are as follows:
1. Create a new IDOC partner for fedex
2. Create new outbound IDOC with trigger points as follows:
Trigger u2013 For plants 1000 & 2000: Upon creation of an outbound delivery coming from a particular storage location, send the new IDOC to the fedex partner for the corresponding order. This IDOC will be used by fedex to determine the receiving party for the materials and creating the appropriate paper work, such as packing slips, customs invoices, etc.
Can some one please tell me the steps required to accomplish this on the configuration side and the development needed (posting program etc)
Theoretically I know the steps of ALV but I am seeking guidance from someone who has done this in real time because I don't know how many of those steps would be necessary for this.
Help would be really appreciated.
Thanks and Regards
Sameer

Issue with custom fields mapping from CRM to ECC.

Hi all,
I have issues with replicating custom fields in a Service order. I have created new fields with EEWB and EEWC. Now the structure has been changed in ECC and CRM. But i have to map this fields to correct structures. Also i need some logic to apply.
But i have addressed in couple of threads about the custom function module as in user exit for FI generation.
But i didnt understand the concept of this custom function module. why is this been used?
Could anyone let me know with an good example on how this has to be acheived.
Points are highly awarded.
Kindly reply me.
Thanks,
Kiran...

Hi,
Here you go,
After you create custom characteristics.
1. Do Assign category.
2. Map contents.
3. Double check your master catalog has the mapped content.
4. Publish master catalog.
As per your message, you are not having any error message during import, which tells me that you are one step to close.
Cheers, Renga

Sender / Receiver ID mapping for EDI interfaces and Type of seeburger adapt

We need to set up a interface using Seeburger adapter for Purchase order IDOC to 850 EDI mapping.. After reading from SDN,
1) We can use the standard mapping in BIC MD to do E2X and X2E mapping..
2) We can use any of the AS2, EDI generic adapter, Seeburger FTP adapter or Seeburger SFTP adapter...
How do we decide which adapters should be chosen? I can see that it makes sense to use SFTP adapter or AS2 adapter for security...
Also how do we map Sender and Receiver IDs on the EDI message.. Should this be hardcoded as part of mapping or is there any facility in seeburger adapter to do this? I saw some references to Party Identifiers and not sure how it is used in setting up Sender/ Receiver ID
Also the graphical mapping to convert IDOC XML to EDI XML, Do we have standard mapping defined or do we need to create our own graphical mapping.

Hi Kris,
I had worked in the somehow same scenario, It was IDOC to EDIFACT file.
I can give you few clues which might be helpful
In BIC MD you have to create your own mapping if the standard mapping is not available (First check all the standard mappings in BIC). For your reference you need X2E mapping, as your scenario is IDOC to 850 EDI.
"the graphical mapping to convert IDOC XML to EDI XML, Do we have standard mapping defined or do we need to create our own graphical mapping."
In graphical mapping i created my own mapping, Seeburger has given some sample mappings you can check those for your reference (SEEBURGER_GENERIC_EDI software component). Mostly you have to create your own. You need a document from your functional consultant so that you are able to map correct fields and constants.
"how do we map Sender and Receiver IDs on the EDI message.. Should this be hardcoded as part of mapping or is there any facility in seeburger adapter to do this? I saw some references to Party Identifiers and not sure how it is used in setting up Sender/ Receiver ID"
This has been generally hardcoded in message mapping (In my case i hardcoded). If any of ur IDOC field contains that data you can map that field. But better Idea is ask your functional expert.
"How do we decide which adapters should be chosen? I can see that it makes sense to use SFTP adapter or AS2 adapter for security... "
You can choose adapter according to your requirement. In my case i used File adapter as i have to create file in PI server only. My suggestion you can use SFTP for seeburger
Hope these points are helpfu for u

Reading Custom IDOC from xMII

Hi all,
I'm trying to read a custom IDOC coming from ECC system, with no result. I'm able to read standard IDOC but it seems there are some kind of limitations reading custom IDOC.
IDOC on the ECC side are setted up in the same way, but when I send the IDOC in a Z transaction from ECC the IDOC is not visibile both in the xMII Message Monitor and in the xMII Messages Without Rules.
Do you have any idea?
Thanks.
Regards,
Roberto

Roberto,
This has come up several times in the last year or so. So far in my memory, that problem always turned out to be some configuration setting with the custom IDoc. Do a search on IDoc or custom going back a year (maybe more) to see the issue others found when experiencing problems with custom IDocs.

Mike

Custom process code and FM for custom IDoc...

Hello Experts,
I created a custom IDoc based from ARTMAS05 IDoc. This is because we only need 3 segments and
the standard idoc(Artmas05) contains so many segments that we need.
Now, will I create a custom process code and FM for this? how do I go about this?
Thank you guys and take care!

Hello,
Here are the Steps that we need to be following while creating a Custom Process Code with Custom Function Module. ( Since the Segments to be handled are very Less, I am recommending that you go for a Custom Function Module).
1. Go to SE37 Create a Function Module. Please ensure to Create it with the IMPORT / EXPORT /TABLES parameters exactly in the way that they exist in any Standard SAP Inbound FM (Refer to IDOC_INPUT_ORDERS for example).
2. Once our FM is Ready (Need not be Complete with the Code to go ahead with the Process Code Creation) and Active, the next Step is to Create an Entry in the Transaction Code BD51 where we will register the Function Module.
3. Next, we'll have to go to T-Code WE57 where we'll have to make an entry for the Function Module with the IDoc Type & Message Type.
4. Finally, go to WE42 and Create a New Process Code and assign the Function Module and the Message Type.
NOTE 1 : The Process Code is, as we know, Client Dependent. So, once you create a Process Code, we need to have it migrated to the Testing Environment to Start & Carry Out Testing.
NOTE 2: If Step 2 & 3 are missing, then we'll not be able to assign the Function Module in WE42 while Creating Process Code.
Hope it was helpful.
Thanks and Regards,

Pre-Query + Webtemplate + Sender/Receiver assignment

Hi,
I have a problem with the Variables screen of my query. The situation is as follows:
- I have Query (let's call it Q1) with a "Replacement Path" variable (V1).
- The pre-query associated to V1 has 3 variables (va1, va2, va3)
- I also have a Web template (W1) that is used to display query Q1.
- In W1, the checkbox for attribute "Force Variables Screen Display" is not checked. That is, I want that the variables screen doesn't come up by default. According to the attribute description, if the checkbox is not checked, "...Display only appears if Mandatory variables are not Filled...", and I don't have any mandatory variables.
- I use a Sender/Receiver assignment (Tr. RSBBS) to jump from another query (Q2) into W1, assigning values for the 3 variables va1, va2, and va3.
- As a result of the "jump" from Q2 to W1, I get the Variables Screen of Q1 displayed (with the right values for variables va1, va2 and va3), and only after clicking on "Execute" I get to see the data...
Now, what I need is to display the data first, and not the variables screen... Any Ideas?
I hope the description of the scenario is clear... If not, please let me know...
Kind regards,
Damian.

I am facing exactly the same problem except that instead of a RRI, I am using parameterized web template URLs. Damian, If you have solved this problem, can you post how? If not, can someone who sees the problem help ?
To restate the problem,I have a web template with a query which has a variable which is populated by a replacement path query which has another variable whose value the user enters. I build up the parameterized URL.
http://dw1-sap.app.*******.com:1041/sap/bw/BEx?SAP-LANGUAGE=E&PAGENO=1&CMD=LDOC&TEMPLATE_ID=PRDPROF&VARIABLE_SCREEN=&VAR_NAME_1=PRDTXT&VAR_OPERATOR_1=CP&VAR_SIGN_1=I&VAR_VALUE_LOW_EXT_1=FEM
The template PRDPROF is based on a query and has a variable PRDID which is a replacement path which is filled by a query whose variable is PRDTXT and is filled in the above URL. PRDTXT is a selection option variable whose entry is optional and is checked ready for input. 'Change during query navigation' is unchecked.
For some reason, the variable values are passed onto the parameterized URL and will fill the variable screen but the screen waits for the user to push the execute button.
Can anybody see what the problem is ? Any input is apperciated.
Thanks.

Step by step custom IDOC creation

Hi,
Can someone give me step by step to create a custom IDOC completely from scratch along with its real tim scenarion ?

hi Tushar,
check it out
There are basically two types of IDOCs.
Basic IDOCs
Extended IDOCs
Idoc Components
Basic Idoc
Basic IDOC type defines the structure and format of the business document that is to be exchanged between two systems.
Extension Idoc
Extending the functionality by adding more segments to existing Basic IDOCs.
Creation of IDoc
To Create Idoc we need to follow these steps:
Create Segment ( WE31)
Create Idoc Type ( WE30)
Create Message Type ( WE81)
Assign Idoc Type to Message Type ( WE82)
Creating a Segment
Go to transaction code WE31
Enter the name for your segment type and click on the Create icon
Type the short text
Enter the variable names and data elements
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set Release
Follow steps to create more number of segments
Create IDOC Type
Go to transaction code WE30
Enter the Object Name, select Basic type and click Create icon
Select the create new option and enter a description for your basic IDOC type and press enter
Select the IDOC Name and click Create icon
The system prompts us to enter a segment type and its attributes
Choose the appropriate values and press Enter
The system transfers the name of the segment type to the IDOC editor.
Create IDOC Type
Follow these steps to add more number of segments to Parent or as Parent-child relation
Save it and go back
Go to Edit -> Set release
Create Message Type
Go to transaction code WE81
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter
Click New Entries to create new Message Type
Fill details
Save it and go back
Assign Message Type to IDoc Type
Go to transaction code WE82
Change the details from Display mode to Change mode
After selection, the system will give this message The table is cross-client (see Help for further info). Press Enter.
Click New Entries to create new Message Type.
Fill details
Save it and go back

Export Custom Attribute Mapping

Hello Gurus!
I'm migrating a xMII 11.5 project to MII 12.1 and the migration tool was fine on creating the Custom Attributes and Custom Attribute Mapping. However, what I need now is to export Custom Attribute and Custom Attribute Mapping from MII 12.1 DEV to QAS and PRD.
My question is: When exporting Custom Attributes from Configurations menu, it will export Custom Attribute Mapping too? How can I export and import Custom Attribute Mapping from DEV to QAS and PRD?
Thanks

Manoel,
have you tried the following:
- open System Management / Configurations
- unmark the "Select All" and only mark the "Custom Attributes"
- click export and save the zip file
The exported zip file should include all the settings. In your follow up systems QAS and PRD you can import the zip file.
See also SAP Help on [MII 12.1 Configuration|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_mii121/helpdata/en/43/e80b59ad40719ae10000000a1553f6/frameset.htm]

IMessage send/receive failure

Is anyone else having trouble sending and receiving iMessages? The problem started a few days ago for me. When I try to send an iMessage it looks like it's sending and the status bar up top looks as if it's just about finished loading, but it never actually completes the delivery. I tried re-starting my phone several times..no luck. My friends are telling me that they sent me multiple iMessages, but I don't see anything on my phone. Strange.

Yes, iMessage setting is turned on. If it cannot send as iMessage it's supposed to send as a text, but I found that I have to manually do this each time. I spoke with some friends and they are experiencing the same iMessage send/receive problem.

Is there a way to randomly colorize a black & white pattern for a custom shatter map?

I have AE CS4 (and also Illustrator and Photoshop CS4 if that is easier - I do have my image converted to a vector image as well)
How can I quickly colorize this image so I can make a custom shatter map from it? (make all the pieces different colors)
Thanks all!

in PhotoShop a fairly easy process
here is a movie
http://mysite.verizon.net/wzphoto/Colorize.mov
you can easily do this to the vector art in Illustrator by selecting the paths from the layers panel especially if they are separate groups or staining the parts if symbols and just pick a color.

Problem with Custom idoc sending

Hi Experts,
We have created partner profile and port for receiver system, our idoc is Z (custom) idoc.
but the problem is here, when we are sending that idoc from R/3 system, it is in Yellow position with message number 30. How we can solve this problem.
Is there any other configuration required for Z (Custom) idoc.
Please help,

Study SAP

hi check this...
http://www.****************/Tutorials/ALE/CustomIDOC/Create.htm
check the process followed or not if u miss any steps then it will give warning....that is not a problem..see one thing after creating the idoc u need to give the status back to the idoc_status. otherwise it will not show the green message 51...we have to do it if this is the custom idoc ...otherwise if it is a standard one there is nothing to do it will automatically catch the message back.

IDoc receiver AEE: Error "Configuration for Sender/Receiver Partner Number/Port is incorrect"

Hi all,
We are on PI 7.4 AEX SP 7. We are trying to get the following scenario working: Inhouse warehouse management system (JMS) --> PI --> ECC (IDoc)
Sender is configured as 3rd party technical system system with business system maintained in SLD
business system has logical system assigned in SLD
adapter specific identifiers show logical system in ID / NWDS
logical system is defined in receiver (ECC system)
partner profile is created in ecc for this very logical system (inbound parameters)
No mapping of EDI_DC40 node in ESB (complete node disabled)
no header mapping in ID / NWDS
receiver IDoc AEE adapter is configured to not enforce control record (Control Record in IDoc XML = Not Mandatory)
no Identifiers specified in receiver IDoc AEE adapter
My guts feeling is that this should work, however, it doesnt't. Failing with "The Configuration for Sender/Receiver Partner Number/Port is incorrect. Enter proper values in Sender/Receiver Component"
Any thoughts are highly welcome.
Cheers
Jens

Hi,
The error mentioned by you is not related to the port..but its related to the Application ...
IDoc 51 means idoc has been received in R/3 client and when it tries to process it ended in error..
Check with the functional consultant for the error you have received..

Send/receive IDOCs to SOLMAN system using AS2 protocol!

Hi All,
I want to send/receive IDOC file to/from web based SOLMAN system. Currently I'm using FTP server to send/receive IDOC file.
As of now the current process is to send the IDOCs from ECC to FTP server and from FTP to third party and vice-versa. But due to some constraints, I'm bound to use web based SOLMAN system. Please, can you let me know how to send/receive IDOC files to SOLMAN. Is there standrad FM/method to connect to SOLMAN from ECC as in case of FTP we have FM 'FTP_CONNECT'. Heard that same functionality in case of SOLMAN can be achieved through AS2 protocol.
Kindly help.
Thanks.

Hello Patrice
We have same issue. Is it possible to use IDoc (XML) directly with SAP 5.0 with SOAP (HTTP) without XI?
Since your que is three years old, I'm sure you must have found some method for this.
We'll highly appreciate your help.

Problems while sending/receiving IDOCs

Hi,
I am trying to store IDOC data to MS access database. I created a scenario and able to activate that successfully, but after sending IDOC from SAP, in SXMB_MONI I can see status as "Message Processed succesfully" flag, and acknowledgement status as "Still awaiting acknowledgement" and data is not stored in database. Anybody having any idea about this problem.
Another problem what I am facing is, when sending an XML file from a file server to SAP(through XI), I am getting status as " Scheduled for outbound processing". Receiver determination, Interface determination, Sender & receiver agreements all are present and correct. Any help?

Hi,
Check what chris has said....Also in SXMB_MONI check the status of the message on the outbound side(by scrolling to the right)...This will say whether it has been transferred to the Adapter Engine....
For the second problem, pls check whether all your queues are registered. All queues can be registed from transaction SXMB_ADM...then doublwe click on "Manage Queues"...and choose the register queues and execute...
Thanks,
Renjith
