Communication of SAP XI with SAP R/3 using ALE

[Former Member]

Hi All

I am working on a project that uses SAP XI as middleware. XI reads flat files , converts them into idocs and posts them to SAP system. The inbound functions are designed to handle one idoc at a time whereas SAP XI is sending all idocs created from a file in one stretch to SAP R/3. So when the inbound function is reached, it processes for first idoc only and exits process. Because the system does not get any status records for other idocs, it rolls back processing of first idoc as well.

I would like to know if there is any way where any settings in SAP XI can cause the idocs to be split into individual ones before they reach the inbound processing.

Thanks & Regards

Hi Amit,

>>> XI reads flat files , converts them into idocs and posts them to SAP system

if you want you can split your idocs from the file adapter

take a look at:

<b>Recordsets per Message</b>

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm

this way you don't need building an integration process

and the idocs will come from XI as many messages
