File-XI-RFC; How to control the response from RFC?

[Former Member]

Hi Gurus,

I am working on an interface between MDM and XI, where I am using FILE-XI-RFC scenario. I am using Customer create BAPI for this interface. When we get the response back from RFC adapter, XI should look into the data and depend on that data,

In case of success, it should send the message back to MDM.

In case of failure, XI needs to raise an alert and send it to the recipient.

I am using BPM for this scenario. Can any of you help me with this design?

Basically I need to distinguish between a success and failure and send the message accordingly.

Thanks for your help,

Kalyan

Hi,

In the case of failure ..will the XML data will be error.. if so by that with help of switch you can direct it.

Hi Doss,

The RFC response should have the Customer number field filled in case of success and will be blank in case of failure.

So, based on that field, I can do the conditional routing, but how to raise an alert in case of failure?

Thanks

Kalyan

Hi,

You can achieve this with BPM.

Have look into this blog to get the response back to XI. Once you get the response have a Switch step to determine the success or failure. If it is fail then send an alert

For alert-

Hi,

To throw an Alert from a BPM , you use the Control Step .

Use a Switch step in the BPM, and then for valid data send the file, for the inavlid branch , use the Control Step to trigger the alert.
