File->XI->Multiple IDOCs scenario

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am working on File->XI->IDOC scenario. I have a single source file and I need to map it to two IDOCs and post them to ECC. The order of posting is not an issue since it is taken care of by ECC.

I need help (detailed) on achieving this in the best possible way (using/without using BPM).

Thanks,

Guru

PS: I went through the following blog:

/people/jin.shin/blog/2006/02/07/multi-mapping-without-bpm--yes-it146s-possible

But as per this blog, multi mapping is not possible with IDOC as the IDoc adapter is outside the Adapter Engine.

Hi Guru,

you dont need a BP. Here are some interesting links for you:

As Jaishankar suggested,

going for separate mapping is a better n simple options.

Source Message Interface Mapping 1> IDOC1

Source Message Interface Mapping 2> IDOC2

Since you are sending the IDocs to the same system,

One rcvr in rcvr determination, without any condition.

in interface determinations, you have 2 inbound interfaces, and corresponding Interface mappings.

Its a simple n straighforward approach.

Guru,

2 options.

a. Use a BPM to achieve this. You can do 1:N mapping for IDOC with in a transformation step.

b. Do separate mappings for each IDOC. In interface determination, specify both the IDOCs as ibound interfaces and specify the correct mapping.

Hi Guru,

Please send the structure of the file.

Your purpose can also be achieved by using BPMs.
