Use of range in case of XPATH for receiver determination.

Hi Experts,
I need to achieve the following using standard receiver determination.
The material number in the source message structure has to lie within a perticular range and that should decide the receiver of the message.
For example:
MT_SRC
|---- Ele1
|----
MaterialNo.
If MaterialNo is between 100000100 and 100001000 then it should be sent to BS_TGT1 else it should be sent to BS_TGT2.
Is it possible to achieve this using the standard conditional receiver determination using XPATH and if yes, how exactly?
Regards,
Amol

Hi Amol,
I think its possible. Never tried though for a range.
Go through this link and check out what is described under the section "Notes Regarding the Use of XPath Expressions"
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/a513f2632c332ce10000000a11466f/frameset.htm
I am not sure whether it will work for two conditions though, i.e. for a range( Greater than 100000100, less than 100001000).
Just try and let us know.
Regards,
Sanjeev.

Reg:Xpath in receiver determination

Hello,
My message strcture looks like below.
Record
Level1
item
field1
Level2
item
field2
Level3
item
field3
There can be multiple items for each level.
Here goes my condition.
I have to send the message to the receiver system "A" only when filed2 value is same across all items under level2 i.e. if there are three items under level2, then field2 should have the same value across the items.
Can you please let me know how do we impliment this in the reciver determination step using xpath?
Regards,
Rahul

Rahul,
Your scenario can be achieved using Enhanced Receiver Determination. Using Xpath in Receiver Determination might become complex for your condition.

Receiver Determination - Configuration Overview for Receiver Determination

Hi All,
I was trying on some tutorial for Calling RFC(sender) and creating a File at Receiver site.
I've configured all the required setting at the Design: Integration Builder.
As for Configuration: Integration Builder. Until the Step where I required to setup the Receiver Determination, there is this part "Configuration Overview for Receiver Determination". where i have to maintain the "Receiver Service", else i will hit this error "Enter the receiver service".
The steps which i followed was :
1. Create 2 Communication Channel for Sender/Receiver in the Business System.
2. Create a Sender agreement.
3. Create a Receiver agreement.
4. Create a Interface determination.
5. Lastly "Configure the Overview for Receiver Determination" for Receiver Determination
The problem which I'm facing now is I have nothing in the "Configure the Overview for Receiver Determination" at all even i have created the sender/receiver agreement and interface determination.
While some troubleshooting, under the If No Receiver Is Found, Proceed as Follows: I tried choosing the "Continue Message Processing with the Following Receiver" radio button and choose the Receiver for the Service then hit the save button.
The error "Enter the receiver service". pop up but now, the Receiver service was shown under the "Configure the Overview for Receiver Determination". When i try choosing back the "Terminate Message Processing with Error (Restart Possible) and hit the Save button. The Receiver service goes missing again.
Any Idea what happen ? or anything i missed out ? thanks in advance.

Hello
Check if you have the issue in the kba #1538009 Error When Executing Open - Object not found.
Also see note #1466011 Usability Improvements in Directory:
o Don't show deleted objects in navigation tree
When you delete an object in Directory the link to this object is not
automatically deleted from Configuration Scenario. You need to manually
open every scenario and remove such 'broken' link. In scenario editor
broken links are displayed in grey font and therefore can be easily
identified. Unfortunately the navigation tree in 7.1 (in contrast to
XI3.0) doesn't make difference between existing and broken links and
shows them as they all leads to existing objects.

Using Xpath in Receiver Determination for greater than 500

Hi,
I am trying to use Xpath in the receiver Determination step and I want to check a field which is at item level and comes multiple times(0-unbounded) greater than 500.I tried with different options per SDN blogs,Xpath functions,but still I couldn't able to get what i am trying.I want to process the message when "quantity" is greater than 500,else I want to ignore the message with no errors.
I gave like this /p1: /LIST/item[quantity>499] EX
item loop is 0-unbounded and I need to check for every quantity.I selected the check box multi line as well.
I played around different options,but still did not get what I am looking for.
please suggest in this regard ,how I need to give the expression.
Thank you,
Sri

Hi,
For validating that the item field is occuring more than 500 times you need to choose the
2.The exact XPath would be in your case *(/p1: /LIST/itemquantity[499]EX)*
This means if the 500 th occurance of the item exists then the condition satisfies that is always true for 500 and above occurance of the item.
Please revert if the suggestion proves to be helpful.
cheers,
Abhishek.

Using substring in the XPATH expression for Receiver Determination

Hello, I need a little help please. In my receiver determination, I have a condition and I need to do a "not like" check. Basically, if the first three positions of the source field does not start with a specific code, then I need to execute the condition. The condition editor does not support a "not like" operand, so I went to the XPATH expression editor. I tried to used the XPATH substring function to get the first three characters and then do a "not equal" operand, but it doesn't appear to work. There are not any runtime errors, but the condition is not executing. Any ideas on this? Does the XPATH expression support the substring function?

Hi Jesse,
Can you please explain what is the meaning of http:// in the statement
/p1:PRODUCT/MATNRhttp://not(substring(.,string-length(.) - 2) = '123')
Please explein, I am having same issue. It is not working here.In My case it is
/p1:ORDERS01/IDOC/E1EDP01/E1EDP19/IDTNR[http://not(starts-with(.,\"D\"))]
also tried with
/p1:ORDERS01/IDOC/E1EDP01/E1EDP19/IDTNR[http://not(starts-with(.,'D'))]
Thanks in advance!

Xpath expression in Left and Right operand for Receiver determination

Hi Experts,
Is it possible to use an Xpath expression in both the Left and Right operand inside the Receiver determination e.g.
(/Message/line/IDNumber = /Message/line/IDNo)
Any help will be appreciated.
Thank you,
Brendon

in standard receiver determination you can only specify value for the right operand.
that is one of the reasons you go for enhanced receiver determination
as mentioned in the sap help
If you are using the condition editor to define receiver determinations or interface determinations, you can only use the expression editor to create an expression for the left operand. You must specify a value for the right operand.

Conditions using xpath in Receiver determination

How to write conditions using xpath in receiver determaination. Please provide few examples.
Regards,
Suresh.

hi
Defining Conditions
You also have the option of specifying the conditions to be applied when forwarding a message to the receiver(s) in a receiver determination.
Generally, a condition relates to the contents of a message; if a specified condition is fulfilled for a particular payload element (the corresponding element has a certain value, for example), then the message is forwarded to the specified receiver(s).
● If you want to specify a new condition for forwarding the message to a receiver, in the table in the Display/Edit Receiver Determination editor in the Configured Receivers frame, choose Insert New Condition () and call the condition editor by using the input help ().
● If you want to specify a new condition for forwarding the message to multiple receivers, in the table in the Display/Edit Receiver Determination editor in the Configured Receivers frame, choose Insert Line After Selection ( ) and call the condition editor by using the input help ().
In the condition editor, you can select an element from the message payload and specify a value with which the value of this element is to be compared at runtime.

XPATH in receiver determination

Hi,
We need to dynamically determine the receiver service based on the payload.
In the extended service editor we have succesfully used a simple XPATH expression to point out a specific field of the payload (just like using af context object) containing the service name.
However, in most cases the service name is a substring of a field of the payload and furthermore a constant is to be added to give the full service name. We have tried to solve this problem using the XPATH functions 'concat', 'string' and 'substring'. But as soon as we add just the simplest function to the XPATH expression, the receiver determination fails (unable to process the XPATH).
We have tested the XPATH with the actual message using XML Spy, and it works well.
The XPATH expression is: "concat('SAPR3_', substring(string(/p1:receipt/p1:identity), 2, 5))"
Any hints?
Regards
Lars

Hi Lars,
I just noticed, that you are talking about extended Service Editor - not a Condition - so my answer above is obviously rubbish.
What remains true is that the XPath you use has to result in a node, than the nodes string is taken as a service.
So I am afraid there is no easy solution for your problem...
If you do not have too many receivers and this list is rather static, you could of course use conditions in the receiver determination - something like:
receiver service = SAPR3_b if /.../ = abc
but this is of course not really applicable if the list of possible receivers gets too long.
Another possibility would be to use the substring as a receiver within the configuration. So take it from the payload in the receiver determination and use this 'service' for interface determination and receiver agreement.
Than, within the receiver agreement you can exchange this name by the 'real' name in the header mapping (which is performed as the very last step in the pipeline). Since you have a receiver agreement per receiver anyway, you would not have to create additional configuration objects. The downfall is of course, that to 'read' the configuration (or the message monitoring) one has to know about this mapping trick...

Idoc structure not displying in XPATH at Receiver Determination..!!! Urgent

Hi All,
Doing Idoc to File Scenerio,
In the receiver determination, I need to select the XPATH from the Idoc structure and by based on the GLN number which is coming in one of the segment, I need to pass to different receivers.
Problem here is Iam not able to see the Idoc structure in the XPATH to provide the condition.
But when doing File to Idoc scenarios, Iam able to see the File structure.
Any idea why IDoc structure is not displaying over here??
Its a bit urgent for me..
Waiting for your replys.
Thanks&Regards
Seema.

Hi,
This will help you now
Hi,
If you get the following msg while selecting the BS in Receiver Determination and if you are unable to view the Structure of the Source
"Message interface does not exist in any software components installed on this business system"
1) Open ID-----Double click on Business system that which u are using in the scenario
2) Check whether you are able to see the SWC in the Othere attributes TAB
3) If it is not there means goto SLD----Open the Technical System of R/3 by choosing Web as ABAp type
4) Click on Installed Products TAB
5) Click on Add New product and add your Product of the SWC whcih you are using for developement and Save it
6) Then goto Business systems TAB in the same Technical systems window and click on the Business System appears in the window.
7) Click on Installed products and Check the check box of your Product and then finally save that.
Now you should be able to see the SWC in the Othere attributes TAB in ID

Customizing XPATH in Receiver Determination

Hello,
I am using this blog to write conditions /people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/06/07/customise-your-xpath-expressions-in-receiver-determination and accordingly call the receiver (either Receiver_1 or Receiver_2), never to call both the receivers simultaneously
I have a sample source message like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ConsumerDetails>
 <UserId>91200024:123456</UserId> To check if UserId starts with 91200024: or not
 <Date>20111301161459</Date> To check if length of Date is 14 or not
 <Billing>RC</Billing> To check if Billing has value RC/ SB or not
 <Type>SE</Type> To check if Type has value SE/ CWE or not
</ConsumerDetails>
Accordingly wrote the below conditions:
Receiver_1 (Conditions working fine):
UserId (MiddleOperator --> ContainsPattern) --> 91200024:*
/ConsumerDetails[(string-length(Date)) = "14"] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[(Billing = "RC") or (Billing = "SB")] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[(Type = "SE") or (Type = "CWE")] --> EX
Receiver_2 (Conditions not working; except 1st condition):
/ConsumerDetails[not(starts-with(UserId,'91200024:'))] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[(string-length(Date)) != "14"] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[(Billing != "RC") or (Billing != "SB")] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[(Type != "SE") or (Type != "CWE")] --> EX
Only Conditions for Receiver_1 are working fine; those for Receiver_2 are not. Can anybody please provide correct conditions to be written in the Condition Editor?
~Thanks.

Hello,
Have you tried using the condition as mentioned below:
/ConsumerDetails[not((string-length(Date)) = "14")] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[not((Billing = "RC")) or not( (Billing = "SB"))] --> EX
/ConsumerDetails[not((Type = "SE")) or not((Type = "CWE"))] --> EX
i.e. use not() instead of '!' ??

XPath in receiver determination: Check content of elements that exist 0..n

Hi all,
I have a simple requirement in a receiver determination. In the structure of the XML message, there is a node "STATUS" with an element STATUS_CODE. This STATUS node can appear 0 or 9999 times.
I want to check if there is ANY STATUS with STATUS_CODE = "0", and if so, the message should be sent to a certain receiver. How to to that?
Will that be the solution: (//STATUS/STATUS_CODE = 0)?
Thanks,
CHRIS

> So it seems to me that the operator != can't be used to check a 1...n element? What might be the reason for this?
I am not sure how != works, it is not documented well.
I suppose NE means: does not exist.
So if any node STATUS_CODE with value 1 exists, then the result is false.
If you want an existence check if this, you should apply this:
//STATUS [STATUS_CODE != "1"] EX

XPATH and Receiver Determination

In Reference to forum thread : Conditions in Xpath (Receiver determination)
Suppose I have MT as
MT_Pickfile
 |_Header
 |_Body
 |_Trailer
And i need to check;
(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" ) and(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")
field3 is in Header and field5 is in Body
I tried giving
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Header[(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" )] and /p1:MT_Pickfile/Body[(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")] EX
It doesnt work. But then if both field3 and field5 are in Header then it works (as had been the case in the above mentioned thread which Stefan Grube replied to) i.e. to say
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Header[(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" )] and [(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")] EX
Can anybody put in their suggestions ?
Thanx in Advance,
ShaBZ

Hi Shabarish,
It is not possible to have and or or outside the brackets [].
Try following:
/p1:MT_Pickfile[(Header/field3 = "100" or Header/field3 = "200" or Header/field3 = "300" ) and Body/field5 = "AA" or Body/field5 = "BB" or Body/field5 = "CC")]
Another idea:
Write two lines in receiver determination (use insert expression):
1. line:
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Header[(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" )]
2. line
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Body[(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")]
Hope that helps
Stefan

Condition for Receiver Determination

Can we write a condition,where in if the files are coming from the specific folder it has to be recieved by a particular service and if its coming from a diff folder it has to be recieved by another service

Hmm of no use..
its not recognising the condition for the folder
Ex:
The Requirement is we have 4 input folders which sends the file .we are using bpm to process them.
The reqrmnt is now that we want the same bpm to run independently for each folder.so we have imported the same bpm in the configuration scenario with four different names.and in the receiver determination we gave the condition like u201Cdirectory=D:/out/xminu201D int_bpm1 and u201Cdirectory=D:/out/xmaxu201D int_bpm2

Context object not visible in configuration (for receiver determination)

Hi,
I've created a context object and depending on that I want to forward the message to a specific receiver. But when in that pop-up window for the receiver determination I cannot find the context object. I can only find the technical context objects defined by SAP.
Do you have a solution for that?

ACK for receiver determination with 2 interface determination

Hi Forum,
I have a XI scenario, with a BPM, where i have a Send step,
this send step corrsponds to a receiver determination in Configuration, and this receiver determination has 2 interface determination,
because the send step is like,
BPM to Receiver1, through sender message interface MI_Sender1, but there are 2 different receiver message interface namely MI_receiver1, and MI_receiver2,
.......hence 2 interface determination and 2 interface mappings accordingly,
and now when in BPM, i choose "transport acknowledgement" for this send step, my BPM stucks while waiting for the acknowledgement, but...in MONI, i am receivng both the acknowledgement, but in PE, workflow descrition, it waits for acknowledgement and finally fails,
what's the reason,

check the workitems of both sender/receiver (ack) in moni (problem might be in BPM config).

Use of range in case of XPATH for receiver determination.
