Idoc serialization

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying out idoc serialization for a file to idoc scenario.

I have gone through the following links:

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_erp2004/helpdata/en/bd/277264c3ddd44ea429af5e7d2c6e69/content.htm">help.sap.com</a>

<a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/01/28/setting-up-inbound-qrfc-queues-for-serializing-idocs-using-the-idoc-adapter">Blog by Sridhar Rajan Natarajan</a>

The configurations specified in these links hold good for WAS 6.4.0. We are currently on WAS 6.2.0.

Could anyone suggest an alternate way to achieve serialization?

Thanks,

Smitha.

Hi Smitha,

i dont think you have a chance for a EOIO mechanism in a scenario file->XI->IDoc (WAS 6.20).

But you can recover the sequence by receiving application if you define a field with continously numbers, which is create by sending application.

Hi Udo,

Could you elaborate on this please. Did you mean that once the application reaches the R/3 system, we can sort it out, based on a field in the incoming idoc?

Hi Vijaya,

I am using idoc packaging in this scenario.

After mapping executes, the idocs are created in the same order as the records in the source file.

The same order is maintained until it reaches the idoc adapter.

When these messages are sent to the R/3 system, the order of the idocs vary.

Is there a way to make sure that the idocs are sent sequentially to the R/3 system? I am concerned with the serialization before the messages reach R/3.

Regards,

Smitha.

Hi Smitha,

yes, the file writing application put a (continously) number, the receiving application (an ABAP program) can sort by that number.

Hi Smitha,

Are you particular about the serialization in the SAP XI or once they reach SAP system.

Try this and see if it solves your problem:
