Hi Avinash,

                    Experts have already responded to this question. Thus only point I would like to add here is that java mapping stands apart from rest of the mapping. The reason being that all mapping problem in the world can be resolved by java mapping, whilst the same cannot be confirmed for other types of mapping.

Hello Avinash,

Have a look at below links, you will find consolidated list of all mapping blogs, surely help you to get thru mapping concept.

Hi ,

Based on your requirement choose among them,

Performance wise

1.ABAP Mapping

2.Java Mapping

3.XSLT Mapping

T

Simplicity

1.XSLT

2.Java

3.ABAP

If the scenario is SAP to non SAP systems then ABAP mapping will be good. Otherwise other mappings are good.--Don't go for ABAP mapping because in the newer versions of PI no more ABAP stack ;just keep in mind.

Java is having very rich API .Using Java you can right robust code which is not possible in XSLT.Graphical mapping is converted to a java class internally.

XSLT is simple combination of XPATH fns and is easier.but XSLT is indeed slower, but there are some problems which can not be solved in graphical mapping (e.g. recursion) which can be solved rather easily in XSLT. Also SAP uses XSLT extensively in their standard content (e.g. MDM 3.0) where we have not encountered serious performance problems so far.
