Quick Question - iDoc 'empty' fields?

[Former Member]

Hi eveyone!

Quick question before leaving for holiday

I just finished my scenario 'iDoc to JDBC (Stored Procedure)' and it works just fine.

But, I realize that if a field is empty IN THE IDOC, this field is not COMING to SAP-PI, therefore, I can't map it to the Stored Procedure.

Is this behavior normal? I mean, the field not come from iDoc because is empty?

(I can see the field in the segment, WE19 in R3 (empty), but not in WE02 neither in the INCOMING of SAP-PI Monitor, it's just not there, because it's empty at the origin).

I´m just 'afraid' I would have to do this special treatment for EACH field...:(

Thanks guys!

Empty fields are not shown in PI monitoring, so it's ok.

If the fields at target side are mandatory then you need to take care in mapping.
