Hi BPM experts.
I need to correlate 2 messages in a BPM scenario using a date vs a date/time field. The first message uses date format DDMMYYYY and the second message uses YYYY-MM-DD hh:mm:ss. I need to drop the time stamp (hh:mm:ss) from the second message, transform one of the dates and the use it to correlate the messages. According to the SAP documentation, in order to use different date formats in a correlation, you first have to define a value mapping. I know what a value mapping is but still this is not making sense to me. Does anyone have an example or can point me in the right direction?
Thanks.

Thank you both. I was missing the fact that the BPM process is configured as a service, therefore you can do regular mapping before the messages reach it. After I realized this, everything became clear. Thanks for confirming this with your answers.

I would use a mapping program for changing the format of this date field to required format (to a temporary message format) and then enter the BPM. This way you have same format fields to be used in BPM.

Hi,
you need to do a value mapping - meaning you need to do a message mapping
you can do it before the message will reach a bpm and this way inside a BPM
you will have a correct format - everything in standard
