IDoc to Multiple Files: Mapping-Based Split

[JaySchwendemann]

Hi all,

I have a simple IDoc to file scenario set up. All is running well. However, I now have to create multiple files according to the number of TANUMS (Transportation Numbers) in my sending IDoc. I already checked those two blogs (/people/claus.wallacher/blog/2006/06/29/message-splitting-using-the-graphical-mapping-tool and /people/jin.shin/blog/2006/02/07/multi-mapping-without-bpm--yes-it146s-possible) but failed to get the whole picture.

How Do I have to set up the mapping. Especially: Do I need to use node functions like "splitbyvalue" and if so, how. Like said, i want to create a new file for every occurence of TANUM.

Thanks a lot.

Cheers Jens

Yes..you need to use split value. Change the occurance of target message to 0..unbounded as mentioned in blog.

TANUM -> Split By Value (each value) -> Collapse contexts -> Root Node of Target MT.

ID - Use enhanced interface determination and select the 1: n mapping.

Hi,

TANUM (Changed Contexts to top level) -

---

> splitby value -

---

> target.

If you want for every new value of TANUM then use splitby value( Value change) .

If you want for ever field of TANUM then use split by value (Each Value).

If u face any issue let me know.

Thanks,

Enivas.

Ok, thanks so far, I got that using splitByValue is a key figure to solve this problem. However, say I have the same Messagetype on the target side (Receiver wants to have full IDoc as XML)...

<ol>

<li>I then do need to Map TANUM (Context -SCWM-WMCAID01) --> SplitByValue --> -SCWM-WMCAID01, right?</li>

<li>What about the next subsequent nodes like "IDOC" and "EDI_DC40" and "_-SCWM_-E1LTCAH". Do they also have to be mapped like TANUM (Context -SCWM-WMCAID01) --> SplitByValue --> [NodeName]?</li>

<li>What about the elements beneath the respective nodes, like "TABNAME" beneath the "EDI_DC40" node. How would you be mapping those?</li>

</ol>

Thanks again.

Cheers
