Syndication mapping when changing XML schema

[Former Member]

I have used a ARTMAS04 XML schema and done mapping in the syndicator and saved the map. Then we are doing changes i SAP R/3 and need to add some extentions in the IDOC and therefor also the XML schema. I then add my new schema with the extentions into the the syndicator, and try to open the mapping. Then the mapping is done using the old schema. This means that if I do a change in an XML schema, I need to to map everything from scratch. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Hi John,

The maps saves not only the mappings but also the destination properties for that particular scenario.

Hence as soon as you change the destination properties i.e your XML schema, and try to open your old map which is using different XML schema your changes will be lost and you will end up with using old XML schema only.

As far as i know, to handle this situation you have to do all the mappings again.

Hope this helps.
