file to idoc scenario

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

My business requirement is multiple suppliers are sending Xml files to the PI where XML message is converted to Idoc and posted in SAP system..

To identify each supplier sending the message , I have to identify the Supplier with different sender partner number.

So in R/3 system we20 i need to configure partner profiles with different sender partner number.

will the receiver port be same ...

in the control record i need to get the partner number with which the supplier is identified and the receiver partner will be the same SAPsystemCLNTNO.

and do I need to create parties for each supplier..If so how..

Can you please provide a solution to identify each supplier separately...

Thanks,

Jay.

Hi,

Since your receiver system is the same, the receiver port will be same.

Also, you only need to create parties if the partner Type is not LS but something like KU or LI etc. in this case, you do not need to create any parties.

Since each supplier has a seperate sender partner number, in your message mapping, populate the idoc control record accordingly and in the Receiver Idoc comm channel, check the option : "Apply Control record values from payload" so that these values are not over written later in the pipeline processing.
