XI Mapping

[Former Member]

Hi All

I have a scenario where IDOC ARTMAS05 is send from ECC system into XI, trough ABAP mapping we store certain fields of the IDOC in a table in the XI system.

The Question is: Other IDOC's wil be send to the XI system with the field for example MATNR as empty,

is it possible to get the MATNR from the table and populate it in the IDOC.

Thx

Hi,

I guess best way is to do it with mapping lookups:

Hi,

you could make a message mapping and use the IDoc as source and target message.

Then you could use the button "Map Selected Fields and Substructures if Names Are Identical".

Last step would be to write user defined function for doing the lookups for all fields that need a lookup.

you can always do a lookup.

use a RFC lookup to pull out the data from the table.

Create a RFC for this purpose and do it.
