Multi-Mapping with a Simple Scenario – fledgling kit !

Multi- Mapping
Multi-mapping used for message transformations like 1: n- , n: 1 – and n: m Transformations. Since SPS14 the message splits (1: n transformations), multi-mappings can be achieved without BPM.

Scenario:
You may use this for the scenario like read a flat file which consisting of multiple rows as record set. Then split each row and create separate file for each row. You can use this as base for one File to Multiple IDOC posting also.

Design time objects – Integration Repository

Step by Step approach

 1. Create Source and Target data type as follows

Source Datatype

Target Datatype

2. Create Corresponding Message types for each of the above datatype

3. Create Outbound and Inbound Asynchronous message interfaces for source and target Message Type respectively

4. Create Message Mapping

Here let the source Message occurence as 1 and Target Message occurence as 0..Unbounded  to achive 1:n Mapping

In Target Message, make occurrence as 0..Unbounded

Then do the simple 1 to 1 graphical mapping

Note: Here I have used “SplitByValue” function for Row element , this is used to create separate destination instance for each source instance under the same parent context.Refer Sravya Talanki’s blog and SAP help to get more insight for node functions.

 5. Do the Interface mapping

Note: Here also you should select the occurrence as 0….Unbounded for the target interface

Design Done !

Configuration : Integration Directory

1. Create a business service for the file receiver and sender
2. Create standard Receiver determination and interface determination . But select the interface determination type as “Enhanced” .

Interface determination

Receiver determination

3. Create a Sender and a receiver File adapter
4. Create receiver and sender agreement

Configurations Done!

Testing

Hints

If you have taken the payload from Message mapping – Test message tab for testing as source file , then edit source xml as just remove the elements and .Else you will get the following error in SXMB_MONI

Input

The input file MMINPUT.XML , this file contains 10 rows

Output

In Target folder , PI Created 1 file for each Row . So, here you can see 10 files
