Modify entries of Value mapping table fromValue mapping replication

[Former Member]

Hi,

I have successful uploaded value mapping table from external source(SAP Table) using value mapping replication. The entries are displayed in the cache monitoring.

Now what should i do,if i have to modify the entries in the value mapping table.I tried uploading the new entries using the same GUID, Agency, Schema.... but now both the previously uploaded and the new entries are dispalyed in Cache monitoring.

But i want only the new entries to get reflected in the value mapping table. So kindly request anyone to help.

Regards,

Anup

Hi Anup,

I'm also working on the same scenario. Can you pls. tell me the way to upload the data to the XI cache?.

Actually, am following the blog /people/sreekanth.babu2/blog/2005/02/23/value-mapping-replication for that.

According to that ValueMappingReplication is the Inbound interface and ValueMappingReplicationOut is the Outbound interface.

1.) I'll be registering for the inbound interface ( ValueMappingReplication).

2.) Then I've to write an ABAP program which will call the ValueMappingReplicationOut to transfer the table data. Is that rite?..

If yes, please let me know where and how to write the ABAP pgm?.. Is there any other way to avoid ABAP program ( except lookup )?...

Thanks,

Jothivel.

Hi Jothivel,

Once the inbound java proxy is registered. You can use the ABAP Proxy to send the data or any other service can be used(Excel file..etc).

Pls go through this link:

from this link u can get the structure of the source XML file and also a sample ABAP Code.

Hi Anup,

As for as my experience with value mapping table if u have to modify an entry, u have to delete the older entry and insert the new entry.

so what u have to do is

1.Delete the old entry with the existing GuID(Agency,Scheme,etc)

and

2.Insert the new entry with same GuID or a different one with the same Agency,scheme..

Delete is same as that of Insert except for the operation.

I would be happy if some one provides a better way than this.

Sudharshan.
