Hi,

Do I need to define Data type and message type and MI for all those fields or seperately for each table

In XI U have to create Data Type for each table which u want to Integrate with SAP.

& then create Message Type from Data Type.... & then Outbound Message Interface from Message Type.

Fieldnames in Data Type should match exactly with field names in data base table.

Also u should follow one structure for created Source data type.

Check this :

Hi,

The Better Approch is to pick the table entries from your JAVA Application and Expose the JAVA application as Webservice.Then this JAVA application is able to send the retrieved data to XI.

So now in XI Just create the Data type structure by referencing the database fields

thats all

Hi,

One Data Type, Message Type, Message Interface will do. I think the length of the fields are depends on your target fields length (If its SAP, then SAP table fields length), if itu2019s more than the target field length then you will get an error.

If ur java application is picking up the data from all the 14 tables and can send the data to XI, then u will have to create only one datatype in XI mentioning all the fields retrieved by the java application.

The java application fields are very large in size and field names also very large

What is the exact length of the longest fieldname?

only one datatype is enough for all database tables...
