Problem in idoc to file mapping

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I am doing a idoc to file scenario...

There is a single idoc with multiple header and line items .

I am using multi mapping for header and lineitems.

The problem i am facing is regarding the occurences in target strucure...

at which level they should be specified so all the headers come in one strucure and line items in another...or should the occurences be o to unbounded at each field level.

Kindly help me regarding the same ...

it should be 0 to unbounded at the header level and line item level and just one to one mapping at the field level. try that and let me know how it goes.
