BPM to Non-BPM Design

Hi,

My current interface was built in XI using BPM

A file is received which is sent for a synchronous call to JDBC and following the response it is mapped to target idoc structure.

How do i achieve this without BPM

My scenario in detail

File to IDOC where a synchronous lookup needs to be done in JDBC.

The lookup can be single call for entire fields using request/response structure or multiple lookup using mapping function JDBC lookup.

In both the cases, how do i acheive this without using BPM

Regards

Krish

Hello,

Which version of PI u r using?

IMO, using JDBC lookup can be a performance intensive solution. So in case u have the flexibility of using Java idoc adapter then u could opt for request/response bean + SP.

But in case ur PI version doesn't support java idoc adapter then may be using BPM is better...

Thanks

Hi Amit,

I didn't know about the request/response bean. This will be very useful for me. Thanks a lot.

Hello All,

Just to give a bit of more snapshot, I had separate discussion whether to use lookup in the mapping or the traditional one through the channel due to performance issues i had.

My question is more on can i replace BPM with both these approaches or is it only possible using jdbc lookup in the mapping.

I am using 7.1.1

@Amit: can you explain more on the java idoc adapter for request and response bean.

Hi Anandha,

JAVA IDOC adapter is only available since SAP PI 7.3 version. Check this link http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw73/helpdata/en/71/21dfa45a5143ae9fe115f8c62b1801/frameset.htm

Hello,

Inaki has already provided you the answer abt java idoc adapter, but i think there can be one more option. What you can do is u can split ur scenario:

1st Flow:

File - DB(SP) - File  -> Using Request/reesponse Bean

2ns Flow:

Response File - Idoc

Thanks

Hi Anandha,

You are answering yourself. You can use a JDBC lookup in a Message Mapping..
