Validation for Quantity

[Former Member]

Hello Gurus,

I am new to XI.....

Currently, I am creating a Web Service that invokes the RFC...RFC posts the Document...

Now, my question :

Is there any means in XI by which we can validate a quantity field ??

I mean if user supplies 'ASDFGGH' in quantity field, it should either give an exception or it should pass as a null value to RFC...

Can I do that in XI??

I know, with custom functions, one can do that...But, it would be great if somebody could explain it...

In defining the data type, use positive integer as the type of the element. This way, XI would take care that if strings like assdadad come, it would throw a mapping exception.

Hey Aamir,

Question is still unanswered!!! :(((((

Lemme try with this new approach....

If value is other than normal Quantity, i.e., ASEFGG.DSD then I should stop there itself in XI and should not pass that incorrect value to RFC.

If it is correct value, then I shall pass it onto RFC.

simply use If-else function of message mapping,if the condition is satisfied then pass the correct value else pass blank.

and i guess you can also use createIf function too.

Thanx

Aamir
