Webservice and idoc communication.

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am new to XI.

I have one external webservice. My web service returns customer records by taking some imput parameters.

I want to send this data to R3 using DEBMAS idoc.

I totally lost in my interface mapping.

Can anybody throgh me some light on this?

Regards,

Hi,

Thanks for replies.

According to my knowledege,this idoc is asynchronous and webservice is synchronous.

Assume I have getRecords(String name) and returns customer arraylist.

Now,I created 1) datatype,message type for input name say dt_input and mt_input.

I imported WSDL structure of the web service.

I imported DEBMAS06 from my r3 system.

I mapped 1)mt_input to getRecord_In 2)getRecord_out to debmas06.

Now,

1) What should be my inbound message interface ? Synchrous or Asynchronous? what should be my input and output messages?

2) What should be my outbound message interface ? Synchrous or Asynchronous? what should be my input and output messages?

3) Can I have interface mapping between Synchrous and asychnous message interfaces?

4) BPM required with sync async bridge for this? Any sample blogs availble on this?

Hi,

You are having a synchronous to asynchronous communication here... so you can't use Webservice interface as syc and Idoc as Async

<i>>>I have one external webservice. My web service returns customer records by taking some imput parameters</i>

Then try to use RFC at receiver side... so that u can have both intefaces as Synchronous...

Hi Ramu,

<i>What should be my inbound message interface ? Synchrous or Asynchronous? what should be my input and output messages?</i> - Asynchronous IDOC messge

<i>What should be my outbound message interface ? Synchrous or Asynchronous? what should be my input and output messages?</i> - Synchronous webservice messge interface you created.........

Source - webservice messge interface - outbound

Target - DEBMAS06 idoc of R/3 -Inbound

I would look at some documents that show you how to configure the adapters that you are going to be using. The <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d19fe210-0d01-0010-4094-a6fba344e098">IDoc adapter</a> and the <a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/d23cbe11-0d01-0010-5287-873a22024f79">SOAP adapter</a>

Also you may want to look at some sample [url=https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/cdded790-0201-0010-6db8-beb9bb2b2660]IDoc scenarios[/url]

Hi Ramu,

Get the wsdl of the web service and import it in XI. Use it as the outbound interface. U can also use the same as msg type in message mapping whr u will the wsdl struc to the DEBMAS struc.

You hv to either write a client or use sm software like altova to send the SOAP request from the web service to the XI using SOAP sender adapter. On the receiver side u hv to use the IDoc receiver adaper and do the req ale settings.
