HI

use mapwithdefault node function in message mapping

Mapwithdefault function passes defalut value to the target if my source field does not appear.

You can set a default value by clicking the function in Mapping editor

Hi Ram,

If u change the target fields min occurance to 1 and do not map it or leave it empty(as in ur case) u will get a null pointer exception...

The best way i think u can use is mapwithDefault Function

Hi Ram;

There seem to be no other way out of this.

You can copy the mapping end node and just change the source field in each mapping.

You can also do some code in SAP to pass Null other than blank in the fields to XI.

Change the min occurance for the target field to 1.

This will resolve the issue.
