doubt in BPM

[Former Member]

Hi all,

Is it mandatory always to have Mapping program inside integration process, If I use BPM.

Can I use mapping program outside BPM? If so, then how it will get executed?

Please explain me.

Thanks

Short answer: You can have a mapping inside and outside of BPM.

In BPM to execute a mapping program, you use a transformation step - this references an interface mapping (which in turn references a message mapping).

In the ID you can use the interface mapping during Interface Determination.

As such - if you have a BPM that has sends/receive steps, then you would need to configure interface determination for these steps - at this point you can then use interface mappings.

Hi

Is it mandatory always to have Mapping program inside integration process?

If you consider Integration Process as "BPM", then , the answer is no

If you consider Integration Process as any "Integration Scenario", then also the answer is no

Can I use mapping program outside BPM? If you have a mapping program, you need to be using that in inside your BPM .(design)..

From this reply I got that we can use Mapping program outside the integration process.

<i>>>>If you have a mapping program, you need to be using that in inside your BPM .(design)..</i>

I didn't get u clearly.

Please correct me Krishna.

Thank you.
