Order05 BPM

[Former Member]

We are going to send Orders IDOC to our supplier using the XI.

The Orders IDOC are collected in our R/3 system and will be sent every 4 hours into XI, then to our supplier

How is my Source Data Structure needs to maintained ? i.e 0..Unbounded?

Should I need a BPM to parse the incoming IDOCS? How to do that?

Thanks.

Hi,

use this solution :

https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/pub/wlg/4443?page=last&x-showcontent=off [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]

so you won't need to use any BPM

>>>How is my Source Data Structure needs to maintained ? i.e 0..Unbounded?

yes if you want to have many IDOCs inside

you need to use 0...unbounded

Thanks.

Since the IDOCs are collected in the File in the R/3 system, am I going to use the Sender File Adapter or can I use the IDOC adapter(No config needed in ID)

Also, can I import the IDOC structure as the Source Message?

Should I need to have the File Content conversion for the Sender File Adapter?

Hi,

in sender file adapter?

if you want the scenario as per the blog I mentioned

no need for content conversion

as it's an XML file

you only need content conversion to convert

non XML file to XML or XML to non XML

Since I want to send my Orders every 4 hours to my Suppliers, should I need to mention 14400 as Polling Seconds(I know this is not a great Technique, because the polling interval starts from the time interface got activated, so let us say if I have completed 2 hours since my last polling and if I modify my scenario for some reason and activate my scenario then the Polling starts for that activation, but actually still I got 2 hours left for my next polling?) or if there are any other Best technique to schedule my scenario every 4 Hours or on a particular time of the day/

Pete,

If you see the weblog you are going to schedule the report RSEOUT00 for every 4 hours. So for every 4 hours the report will run and will push to XI. For this it is not related to your activation of communication channel in XI.

thanks Sathish, so whats my polling interval given in Sender Adapter?

Thanks.

Pete,

I would suggest to go with polling for every 4 hours only i.e, 46060. Also you can schedule your file adapter. If you have SP19 then Please see this weblog:

Pete,

If you collect the Idocs as mentioned in this weblog then you dont need BPM. Also see the question which was raised by me at the end of the weblog.
