Hi Monica Bhatia

If u want to add values to the control record , u have to select the APPLY CONTROL RECORD VALUES FROM PAYLOAD checkbox in the communication channel. When a new communication channel of type IDoc is created, the flag is set by default. If the flag is not set, the

settings comply with XI 2.0

This following websites clearly clarifies u'r doubt with detailed description with fields :

Dear Monica,

1.Yes mandatory field should be filled to test the maping.

2.You can disable the optional field and then test the mapping without values.

3.You can put values of the segment during mapping from there it will take tha data at runtime.

here is some useful liks for you.

HI Monica,

well , your question is :

1.In my file to idoc scenario while performing mapping is it necessary to map control record fields or can we disable the segment and perform our mapping?

<b>no requirment, its totally up to you , what fields you have to map, rest you can disable if mandatory fields are there.</b>

2.If we disable the segment then from where this values will be taken at runtime & how this vaues will be compared at receiver systems partner profile ?

<b>what happenes in runtime you can check in TEST option given after Design in Message Mapping, so you can see your target structure there or your target field compare .</b>

hope this will help

1. You can disable it.

2. It will be taken from either the logical system name you maintain in SLD or directly from the Logical system name maintained in Adapter specific Identifier in case of Business service in ID.

Hi Monica,

<b><1.In my file to idoc scenario while performing mapping is it necessary to map control record fields or can we disable the segment and perform our mapping?></b>

You can disable the segment, xi will take care of it, it is used when you select header mapping in your Integration Directory.

<b><2.If we disable the segment then from where this values will be taken at runtime

& how this vaues will be compared at receiver systems partner profile ?></b>

XI will take care of it automatically.

<i>1.In my file to idoc scenario while performing mapping is it necessary to map control record fields or can we disable the segment and perform our mapping?</i>

>>

you have two options

1. to disable the fields - in this case the IDoc adapter will fill the control records for the same.

2. enable the fields and map it to the required details - in this case you will have to use the option Apply Control Record Values from Payload in the IDoc adapter - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/96/791c42375d5033e10000000a155106/content.htm

it is set via the configuration details for the R3 BS in the SLD.

HI,

Yes you can disable the segment.In the adapter you have a option apply control records from the payload so it will take all the control records values from the payload.

Apply Control Record Values from Payload

If you set the indicator, the conversion of communication parties to the IDoc partner is only possible for systems that are not logical systems.

If you do not set the indicator, all combinations of communication parties and services are handled as services without party.

If the IDoc XML structure contains a control record during outbound processing on the Integration Server, it is rejected and created again by the IDoc adapter. If you want to include additional values in the control record, set the indicator and provide an appropriate mapping for the values. See also: Fields of the IDoc Control Record
