Using ABAP Mapping

Hi,
today I read that it should be possible to use ABAP Mapping instad of Messagemapping.
in depth SAP Docu told me following: Add additional mapping types in your Exchange Profile:
com.sap.aii.repository.mapping.additionaltypes
R3_ABAP|Abap-class;R3_XSLT|XSL (ABAP Engine)
But were to find my Exchange Profile?
Regards Matt

go to http://<host>:5<sys_num>00/rep
Click on Administration and login with XISUPER.
Make sure you are in Repository tab in the left side of the window.
Click on <b>All properties</b> under <b>Administration of Properties </b> and check whether your property is there, otherwise use refresh. If nothing happens, refresh your cache and check the properties again.
There was an how to guide on this, I could not find the link, but have it in my collection. If you want I can mail it.

Variable Substitution not working when using ABAP mapping

Hi all,
I am doing an IDoc to File scenario.
Due to some complex mapping requirements, i had to use ABAP mapping for IDoc to File ( IDoc : SHPMNT05)
There is also one more requirement where in i need to generate the receiver filename dynamically
i.e the filename is of the form :
GW-XYZ-DD/MM/YYYY.csv
Where
XYZ is the Shipment number (E1EDT20- TKNUM)
DD/MM/YYYY is the IDOC creation date in ECC (EDIDC-CREDAT)
so i used the variable substitution option in receiver file adapter.
But its not working.
Is there any limitation for using the variable Substitution, doesnt variable substitution work in case of ABAP mapping?
Regards,
Loveena.

Hi,
u written ABAP mapping program to get the file name in the required format ,
is it rt?
when u test it at message mapping(including ABAP map program)
u get the the required format of file name in the one of target filed.
if that was fine, please check the variable substituiton parameters at receiver file adapter.
i mean, are u maintain variable name and refernece.
u have to specify the payload information.

How to write a log using abap mapping

Hi all.
in PI 7.1 environment I need to use abap mapping and I wish to write some XML data into a table that I created for logging the data.
I know that using the abap mapping I can parse an XML file. My question is how to write this table defining a specific method, if it is necessary.
Any help or suggestion is well appreciated.
Many thanks in advance for your kind cooperation.
Regards,
Giovanni

hi,
>> My question is how to write this table defining a specific method, if it is necessary.
just like to normal table (insert statement)
parse XML and get the data you need and just insert into the DB table
there are many tutorials showing how to parse xml file inside abap mapping
so just do a little search on sdn

Error when using ABAP mapping

I followied the how to guids "How To convert an IDoc-XML structure to a flat file and vice versa in XI 3.0" and "How to Use ABAP-Mapping in XI 3.0".
After I built created the ABAP-OO class Z_ABAP_MAPPING_IDOC_TO_FLAT and implemented every thing, during the testing, I got the error "Exception CX_SY_NO_HANDLER triggered, An exception with the type CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL occurred, but was neither handl".
Please help.
Thanks!

Please debug as follows...
put a break point inside your class/method....
goto tcode SXI_MAPPING_TEST....give in the configuation details of your scenario...and when you execute, give the IDOC-XML, copy it from SXMB_MONI where you are getting the error....
when you execute, it shoudl stop at the break point that you had set in your class....continue debugging using 'F6' function key, and check where you are hitting this error...
The chances are that the FM that converts IDOC-XML to flat file format might not have been executed correctly...
Thanks.

Is multimapping is possible using abap map

Hi,
My scenario is to deal with 1:n message splitting.Is it possible using abap mapping instead Graphical mapping?
Appreciate for your response.
Regards,
Daniel.LA

Prateek,
Could you please tell why it's not possible thru ABAP Mapping? I think it's possible thru ABAP mapping, plz correct me if i'm wrong. I agree that Multimapping is possible only for adapter that lies in J2EE Engine! Plz clarify.

Idoc - JMS queue using ABAP Mapping

Hi all,
I am doing a idoc to JMS queue scenario using ABAP Mapping. I am new to ABAP
Basically i want to know how to read the OUTBOUND idoc segments and their field values. I have gone through link : IDOC--XI--IDOC Using ABAP MAPPING(Idoc to Idoc using ABAP Mapping).
If any body could suggest me how to read idoc->segment->fields or give some sample code, it would be very helpful.
Thanks in advance&
Regards,
Mani

Hi Mani,
Maybe it would be easier to use graphical mapping. In ABP mapping you have to parse XML and than create target document. If you want to do it I'd strongly advice you to read it:

Dynamic configuration in integration process using abap mapping

Hi everybody,
i have the following scenario:
file adapter -> integration process -> file adapter
The integration process uses an ABAP mapping and sets the filename in dynamic configuration as follows:
*-- Set Parameter
    clear ls_dyn_record.
    ls_dyn_record-name      = gc_dyn_config_name.
    ls_dyn_record-namespace = gc_dyn_config_ns.
    ls_dyn_record-value     = <new_file_name>
*-- Write configuration
    ir_dyn_config->add_record( ls_dyn_record ).
But now the new filename is not reflected in the file adapter (receiver). In the integration monitor (SXMB_MONI) i still find the old filename.
Whats wrong?
Elko

The ABAP mapping is more complex, setting filename in Dyn. Conf. is just one step in mapping.
If I check the Workflow protocol of the Integration Process, I find the following in the Trace of the ABAP-Mapping:
The filename has been set to 3233340.SWNF00HW.P10I. The Suffix P10I has been added in the ABAP mapping.
When I check the subsequent message in SXMB_MONI I find:
The added suffix is missing in the filename !!

Receiver determintation using Abap Mapping

Hi,
I configured a scenario in which I'm using extended receiver determination to determine the receiver of an incoming message. (The reason for this is that there is only one XI system and two ECC systems - DEV and QAS. By means of the setting in a customizing table it can be determined whether the message is sent to DEV or QAS. The message can't be sent to both systems because it is a synchronous interface). The receiver determination calls an Interface Mapping which has target interface Receiver Determination. I made an Abap Mapping program in which the customize table is read and the output message is formed as follows (according to the structure of the Receivers message):
      lrf_output_document = lrf_ixml_factory->create_document( ).
      lrf_receivers = lrf_output_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Receivers'
                                                                  parent = lrf_output_document ).
      lrf_receiver = lrf_output_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Receiver'
                                                                  parent = lrf_receivers ).
      lrf_element   = lrf_output_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Party'
                                                                  value = ' '
                                                                  parent = lrf_receiver ).
      lrf_element->set_attribute( name = 'agency'
                                             value = ' ' ).
      lrf_element->set_attribute( name = 'scheme'
                                            value = ' ' ).
      lrf_element   = lrf_output_document->create_simple_element( name = 'Service'
                                                    value = 'DEV'
                                                    parent = lrf_receiver ).
To fill the RESULT field a stream factory is instantiated and a XSTRING is created. When I send a message to the system, the receiver determination dumps: Error when parsing receiver listLength of XML document 129 Error when parsing receiver listLength of XML Document 129 System expected the element 'Receivers'
Looks like the XSTRING has not got the right structure and can not be parsed into the Receivers message. However, when I create a CSTRING, the message looks OK. I also changed the encoding (Codepage 4103).
When I replace the Abap mapping with a message mapping, the receiver determination works OK. However, in that case it is not possible to read the customizing table. I really need the Abap mapping.
Has anyone ever filled the Receivers massage by means of Abap mapping. Any feedback will be appreciated!

Hi,
there is a easier way - totally based on my blogs
create an abap mapping that will feed the dynamicconfiguration in ABAP (with z "Z" namespace) - similar thing shown in my blog
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2007/04/26/xipi-throwing-generic-exceptions-from-any-type-of-mapping
and you don't need to create the XML in ABAP mapping just parse it, fill DC and send the same source to the target
(so you don't change the XML)
then add a message mapping to your interface mapping in which you will only use dynamicconfig value
to populate the receiver segment
nice and clean way

Webservice to Idoc/File using ABAP mapping

Hi Experts,
I need your expert advise on below scenario.The flow of the scenario is..
1)I will get a control record from a webservice(SOAP sender adpater), this initiates the process flow.
2)based on control record ,The ABAP mapping program will call a program(within the PI sys) to fetch the data from DB table.then the ABAP mapping program will have to create 2 messages for the target. One is IDoc and another one is File.
Pls suggest the best approach.
Regards,
Srini

Hi Prateek,
Thanks for quick reply.
there is a main program which has different classes and methoda to fetch the data from DB tables.I dont want to touch this main program.
what i am going to do is, I will this main program from abap mapping by passing the control record information.based on this control record,the main program will fetch data for ABAP mapping.From ABAP mapping, i have to generate 2 messages,one for IDOc and another one is for File.
Hope you got my requirement.

Srini

IDOC-XI-FILE Scenario: Error in ABAP Mapping

Dear All,
I am working on IDOC-XI-Flat FIle scenario in which I am using ABAP Mapping as per document "How To Convert an IDoc-XML
structure to a flat file and vice versa in XI 3.0".
I created one customized Idoc for this. The Idoc is reacing XI but its flat file is not getting created. Its giving me following error:
<SAP:Stack>Error in mapping program Z_ABAP_MAPPING_PACKING_LIST (type SAP-ABAP, kernel error ID UNCAUGHT_EXCEPTION) An exception with the type CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL occurred, but was neither handled locally, nor declared in a RAISING clause Dereferencing of the NULL reference.</SAP:Stack>
<SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
I have also gone thru threads posted for the same topic earlier but still I am not been to resolve this error.
Please help me out in resolving this error.
Regards,
N.Jain

HI,
   Log saying that, u have problem in the mapping program.
i.e Z_ABAP_MAPPING_PACKING_LIST
   the problem is due declaration of data.
   i hope that, you have some methods.
   those are declared under intialization section in mapping program.
please use start of selection before the method.
other wise, it will come under intilization section.

Issue in ABAP Mapping

Hi All
I am using ABAP mapping.
After getting children of the root node, i create an iterator by the following statements:
node_collection = root_node->get_children( ).
node_iterator = node_collection->create_iterator( ).
Now, In a loop, i want to get all the children in sequence. So, in the loop i am writing this statement:
child = node_iterator->get_next( ).
For the first iteration in the loop, 'child' gets the first child. But, for the second iteration, the 'child' value is becoming NULL.
Am i doing anything wrong? How can i fix this?
Thanks
Chandra

Hi Chandra,
you should first check the existence of the node in something like:
lo_xml_iterator = lo_xml_node_coll->create_iterator( ).
lo_xml_node = lo_xml_iterator->get_next( ).
while not lo_xml_node is initial.
lo_xml_node = lo_xml_iterator->get_next( ).
endwhile.

Sergio
