Hi,

Sorry i am sending you the blogs and some material links, but i haven't PPTs about the mappings and its types.

Regarding the graphical mapping follow this links

SAP recommends the graphical mapping, but all times graphical may not suitable to our requirements,

so based on our requirement we select the mapping type.

hi,

There are 4 types of mapping in XI

1. Graphical

2. XSLT

3. java

4. ABAP.

There is no hard and fast rule for using the mapping techniques. But, I will try to put things in the right perspective for you.

Graphical Mapping is used for simple mapping cases. When, the logic for your mapping is simple and straight forward and it does not involve any complex logic.

Java and XSLT mapping are used when graphical mapping cannot help you.

When the choice is between Java And XSLT, XSLT is simpler than java mapping and easier. But, it has its drawbacks. One among them being that you cannot use Java APIs and Classes in it. There might be cases in your mapping when you will have to perfrom something like a properties file look up or a DB lookup, such scenarios are not possible in XSLT and so, when you want to use some specific Java API's you will have to go for Java Mapping.

Java Mapping uses 2 types of parsers. DOM and SAX. DOM is easier to use with lots of classes to help you create nodes and elements, but , DOM is very processor intensive.

SAX parser is something that parses your XML one after the other, and so is not processor intensive. But, it is not exaclty easy to develop either.

For further info on each of the mapping, refer to these links,
