how to define the LOOP condition sams as in BpmPatternCollectPayload

[jagesh_lakdawala]

Hi Experts,

I am developing the exact BPM scenario as given for the BPM pattern BpmPatternCollectPayload available in SAP BASIS SWCV.

in that I am not getting how to define the condition for the LOOP step as shown below.

I can see OverallNumber is one of the field in Data Type BpmPattenCollectToBeCollected.

how to use this field in condition editor while defining the condition for the LOOP step.

please advice.

Regards,

Jagesh

Hell Jagesh,

You need to set the counter to number of times the loop should be repeated.

Refer the below link

Hi Raghu,

I know I need to define the condition for the LOOP step using the counter but as I mentioned in my first message I don't know how to use the OverallNumber variable inside the condition.

I need to know how to use OverallNumber in condition editor for the LOOP step condition.

Thank you,

Hello Jagesh,

you would like to loop for a particular count right say 3.

then give condition like count <= 3

This will repeat loop till count is 3.

No, I want Loop should run as many times as Number OverallNumber specified in incoming inbound message to BPM, please go through the standard BPM pattern as I mentioned earlier.

you should create a container element and assign it to the incoming value.

Found the way how to define the condition counter<=OverallNumber as shown below.

This is to be specified in the condition editor for the LOOP step.
