My 'IF THEN ELSE' possible with graphical mapping tool ?

[robert_lippmann]

Hello,

Being new to XI I got into some issues during message mappings.

I want to say:

if externrole = 'BY'

then saprole = 'AG' and sappartner = externpartner.

else.

if externrole = 'DP'

then saprole = 'WE' and sappartner = externpartner.

endif.

I try this with the graphical mapping. Is this possible ?

How do I link two standard 'if' functions together.

Hi Robert,

This is possible by graphical mapping. Do the mapping in the following way.

->Use if with else

*if--->externrole EqualsS AG

*then->AG[Constant]

*Else->o\p of the following IF w\o Else.

*O\p-->saprole

->If without Else

*if--->externrole EqualsS DP

*then->WE[Constant]

->For sappartner map it to externalpartner.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Jesse.

Hi Robert,

for your specific scenario it is the easiest to use the FixValue function.

Your mappings would be:

externrole -> FixValue -> saprole

externpartner -> sappartner

In the FixValue properties you can define the value mapping (BY -> AG and DP -> WE)

Hi,

Yes it is possible to have If-Else in graphical mapping.

Thanks,

Hi,

Yes it is possible as mentioned. It is very easy to do with Java User Defined functions. To look more readable. Instead of so many/nodes graphics..

Using inbuilt function

First take If-else

In the else part , you can give the next if without else function

Hi Robert,

just drop a second "if" into the the output (branch) of the first. Take a "if wihtout else" for the second.
