Mapping problem

[Former Member]

Hi PI Experts,

There are two different elements (1...unbounded) on the source side which have to be mapped to the same element (1...unbounded) on the receiver side. How do i achieve this in mapping ?

For example,

I want to achieve the following through mapping:

Source Message Structure is:

Detail1 (element 1... to unbounded)

Name (subelement 1)

Age (subelement 1)

Detail2 (element 1... to unbounded)

Name (subelement 1)

ID (subelement 1)

Target message Structure is:

Details (element 1... to unbounded)

Name (subelement 0..1)

Age (subelement 0..1)

ID (subelement 0..1)

How to do this mapping in PI ?

Regards, Gaurav.

Create target element once again,like right click on target elemebt select duplicate structure, that means now you have two same elements in target, juts map it.,

Are the elements linked? Is the order the same?

Hi Stefan,

The elements are not linked. The order of the elements is one after the other i.e. they are successive elements.

What I mean is following:

Is your structure like this.

Detail1

Name = A

Age = 10

Detail1

Name = B

Age = 11

Detail2

Name = A

ID = 123

Detail2

Name = B

ID = 456

Or could detail 1 and detail2 come in different order?

Could it happen, that a value in detail1 is not in detail2 and vice versa?

Or is not ensured that detail1 an detail2 is in exact the same order and has the same Name elements?

Hi Stefan,

My main requirement is that lets say there are 2 Detail1 entry and 3 Detail2 entry. So, for this, i should get 5 Details entry in target side.

A value in detail1 may not be in detail2 and vice versa.

Also, Detail1 and Detail2 can have same/different values.

The values inside the Detail1 and Detail2 are irrelevant during mapping.

I see. Just do what Raja proposed.

If Detail1 & Detail2 are are not coming in the successive orders in source structure, then you can use sortByKey function for mapping.
