PI 7.1 Ehp1 IDOC adapter message packaging - package options on sender side

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

I am trying to use the new IDOC adapter PI7.1 Ehp1 functionality for packaging the IDOCs in single PI message, instead of using Collect pattern in BPM. I have configured IDOC sender comm. channel with Sender Agreement as well. So far, so good, but I am wondering if the packaging done on PI side should be the same as the packaging parameters on sender side...

What I mean? Do I have to set the Pack. Size (we20) to be the same as the one on PI, and do I have to use "Collect IDocs" as

Output mode (also found in we20) .. I guess "Yes".. Actually what I got also is that I have to schedule RSEOUT00 if I am using the option to Collect IDOCs, right ? Can execution of RSEOUT00 be "plugged" somehow to be executed after bd21(Creation of IDocs from change pointers) execution ..?

If you have any personal experience on this - please share it with me

Thanks & Best Regards,

Lalo

Do not have to be same.

Think of this way: there are two containers carrying water: A for ECC and B for PI (specified in communication channel), you are defining the size of the containers.

If Size of A > B, then, One full A will need more than one B to handle, means multiple PI messages will be created.

if Size of A < B, One PI message is enough to handle incoming package.

For sure in partner profile of ECC, you will need to enable IDOC packaging and specify the size (container A).
