How to pass null value to the fields

[Bhargavakrishna]

Hi Experts,

we are working on IDOC to SOAP scenario.

For the fields, which don't have the values we are populating by assign " / " in the sender side while generating the IDOC.

my requirement is to whenever the field got " / " it should display " Null " value. i mean empty value.

please help me to achieve this.

Hi,

you can achieve this using text equals funciton.

i am not using exist as it always comes in xml input.

else you can use mapWithDefault node function.

if the tag appears you with values it passes the same.

if there is no tag then it passes the constant value.

for empty tag concept you can follow below link

correct me if i did not get your requirement.

Dear all,

Thanks for your responses.

we delete the code which is used to assign " / " to the fields, if no value is found.

then i used map with default by passing "  ".

It is working fine now..
