Download & Upload message mapping in PI 7.1

[Former Member]

Hi experts,

I have a Web Service -> PI -> Idoc interface configured in PI 7.1. The mapping is quite complex and they've decided to add 2 fields to the scenario. To do this they've created a new Idoc with different segment names (before they were something like "SEGMENT01" and now they are "SEGMENT02"). The field names are exactly the same. When I changed the structure the system told me that it was impossible to match the field names due to the change in the segment name and all mappings were skipped. This is no good, the mapping is huge. Is there a way to download the mapping to a text file, change the segment name manually and then upload it again? Please help....

Thank you all!

Pablo,

Did you tried the yellow icon (correct Inconsistency) to make it look ok? I'm sure you won't loose the mapping by doing this.

Thanks!

Try using the yellow button with a " ! ". There you choose the new name for the missing field. Pi 7.1 rocks! hehe

I am sorry but still i couldn't find such button in Message mapping screen. Does this appears only incase u changed root node of one message?

I'm using it for the first time too. What you are trying to achieve, let me know - I will try to check in my system as well.

Thanks!

Raj,

I am just trying to look for that Yellow button. I am not able to find that on Message mapping screen.

It happened in our scenario when our root node was changed. Luckily in our case mapping was easy hence we did performed mapping again.

Hi,

U can use the mapping templates, and save the templates.

So when they add extra fields modify ur mapping only for those 2 fields.

Better create multiple mapping templates, for different level of hierarchy, so that u can reuse the templates in mapping again.

Also There is a option called Text Preview in message mapping, through which u can view the mapped fields, source and target.
