working with Business Partner Standard repository

Former Member

Hello all

We have unarchived the standard Business Partner Repository and we want to make a proof of concept testing the functionalities of MDM using this repository.

From CRM we have tried to send the data to MDM using XI.

In the XML SCHEMA of the console we have an xsd format which corresponds to the data generated by XI.

When Import the data, we make sur that we have selected (Type : XML SCHEMA and we have entered the name that we defined in the console for the XML SCHEMA NAME ). Our import task doesn’t work. Can somebody give us any idea?

Is there a proper generic XSD for CRM client system? Where can we find it?

Any idea?

Thanks

Regards

Hi Stan,

the standard BP repository has a standard XI content! The reason is that it is very hard to import the fully complex ABABuPa resp. CRMBuPa. Thus we decided to create a new XI message type according to the BP repository. On XI we're performing an XSLT mapping that maps the complex ABABuPa to the MDMBuPa. The standard repository contains a map for the import of the transformed message. I think you should have a look at the XI content.

Alternatively the way to go is that the XML you're using has to have a corresponding XML Schema (XSD) in MDM. This means if you use the ABABuPa you must have the ABABuPa XSD in the repository. You can download this XSD from your XI: start the Integration Builder Design (Integration Repository) and search for the corresponding message type. Select it (Component SAP ABA -> Interface Objects -> Message Types) and switch to tab "XSD". You can use this XSD. Note: if the XSD contains an include to a different one, you have to merge these XSDs into one file! And a second trap is that Import Server can support only one single namespace. ABABuPa or CRMBuPa may use different namespaces (thats another reason why we decided to implement a new message type).

Kind regards
