BPM synchronous RFC calls

[Former Member]

I have two messages, one coming from SOAP and second one from JDBC adapter. I want to map this two messages to Single BAPI call. How do I go about doing this using BPM.

SSG,

1. You will have a fork with 2 branches with 2 receiver steps. One for the SOAP request and the other the JDBC sender adapter.

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/24/e2283f2bbad036e10000000a114084/content.htm">Step Type - FORK</a>

<a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/cb/15163ff8519a06e10000000a114084/content.htm">Multiple Start Process Receiver Steps</a>

2. Transformation Step -- N:1 mapping where the 2 source messages are mapped to the Single BAPI message.

3. Send Synchronous Step -- You will be sending the BAPI request message and getting the Response message.

You can use the <a href="/people/arpit.seth/blog/2005/06/27/rfc-scenario-using-bpm--starter-kit - File to RFC">File - RFC - File</a> blog as a template to see how synchronous RFC calls are made and then , you can get the RFC response and do the needful as per requirements.

Thanks Bhavesh and Prashant.

My requirement is slightly different.

I receive a soap message say M1

Using M1 as input, using JDBC (synchronous call) I get message M2.

Now I want to merge M1 and M2 and perform a RFC call.

Is this a right approach?

1)Receive step to receive the SOAP message.

2)FORK step

3) One path to Synch call to JDBC

4) Second path is empty

5) Transformation message to merge it?

Hi,

It is not required to have Fork step here.

Your BPM steps -

1) Recieve the SOAP Message(M1)

2) Send the Message Synch (M1) to the JDBC

3) Recieve the Repsonse to the dummy message M2

4) Execute the Transformation step ( N: 1) Mapping - M1 and M2 to give M3.

5) Send M3 to RFC.

Hi SSG,

I think you can configure a BPM to receive two different message types, and then map the fields from each of these into a different message type and using that call the RFC
