HI

See the below link

/people/pooja.pandey/blog/2005/07/27/idocs-multiple-types-collection-in-bpm - Collection of IDoc to Single File

/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/04/xi-idoc-bundling--the-trick-with-the-occurance-change - IDOC bundling

Also we have Collection of messages based on the message a pattern in SAP BASIS see the BpmPatternCollectMessage and check for correct IP config..

Use a fork step and make the required no of branches as 1. In one branch use a receive step with in a loop to receive IDOC1. In the second branch use a receive to receive IDOC2.

Hi Jai,

Thanks, I did the same by making necessary branches as 1 but can you please tell me what condition I need to give in loop step.

1=1

You can find a similar BPM pattern in SAP BASIS SWCV under the namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns

Check in ur SCV BASIS in IR of ur xi system

[Former Member]

You are not suppose to open the link. In your Integration Repository, open the Software Component SAP BASIS. With in that SWCV you will find a name space with the name I mentioned above. In that open the BPMs, you will find a standard BPM pattern shipped with XI for the same requirement.

thank jai & prabu,

I went and seen but my requirement is that I need to receive idoc1 till i receive idoc2 and after it should exist from loop.. Will tht work with this step please confirm because we are not specifying the condition between 2 idocs.

Dhil.

[prabhu_s2]

in this case u might look into exception braching where u u can break from the loop based ont he condition specified

[Former Member]

Just try what I mentioned in my above reply. It will work

Jai Shankar

[prabhu_s2]

here he wants to break from the loop when he gets the idoc2 into the process. maybe having a exception branch might help. i assume that he wants to collect and process all the idocs until a new idoc type is recv. if i got ur step correct fork steps process both the idocs.

[Former Member]

>>if i got ur step correct fork steps process both the idocs.

No. That is why, I asked him to make the required number of branches to 1 in the fork step. So the fork step will end as soon as IDOC2 reaches the BPM.

Dhil, you need a container operation step with in the loop which will collect the msg to a multi line container.

okie thats new to me but here dont we have to give some parameters on checking for the idoc type i.e. brach1 process only idoc1 etc?

>>okie thats new to me but here dont we have to give some parameters on checking for the idoc type i.e. brach1 process only idoc1 etc?

Ofcourse, you need to mention a msg name in receive step. correct?

Give the first IDOC name in one branch and the other IDOC name in branch 2.

in recv step u have the option of initiating the process via start process, the abs interface name for recv the message into the process, correlation id...(wud have missed some) but here what difference wud it make when i specify the message name? and what is the message name u imply here?

[Former Member]

Thank you very much Prabhu and Jai,

I just went for my lunch and suprise to see the blog i really got more information. but now when I change and execute the messge is still in inprocess status only and i not getting the file.

Currently i send only 2 idoc of different type. please let me know what next i need to know.

Regards,

Dhill

[prabhu_s2]

send another file that satifies the correlation condition and see if u get the file.

[Former Member]

Hi Prabhu,

I send only the file which satisfied the correlation condition. I think it was stucked in the loop itself.

Regards,

Dhill.

[prabhu_s2]

follow the steps as in the blog pointed by chilla

/people/pooja.pandey/blog/2005/07/27/idocs-multiple-types-collection-in-bpm

still u have the message in process mode then u need to check on the correlation id. perhaps teh condition wouldnt have satisfied

[Former Member]

can you tell where i can check the runtime value of correlation in BPM because as per the idoc the condition is true. and the other thing even though the condition is failed i need to send it to mail.

Hi Prabhu and jai,

Now i am able to do it but the ouput is coming only when send idoc one by one . If I do with transaction WE14 the bpm is not coming out from the loop itself.

Please help out to solve this problem

Regards,

Dhill

[henrique_pinto]

WE14 will send both IDOC1 and IDOC2?

If that's so, probably IDOC2 is processed by IDOC adapter b4 IDOC1.

Make sure you use EOIO in Sender IDOC adapter here.
