Can we configure Custom MDF object with child object through BIB Integration.

540 Views

Dear SAP community,

Need your thoughts and expertise on this topic.

There is a specific requirement at the customer end to map child entities in custom MDF object to Infotypes through BIB integration.

The custom MDF object has field 'Country' it has 6 different child entitties

child entity 1- ( fields specific to country- IRELAND) - mapping required to IT0011.

child entity 2- ( fields specific to country- Italy) - mapping required to IT0033.

child entity 3- ( fields specific to country- Italy) - mapping required to IT0015.

child entity 4- ( fields specific to country- Greece) - mapping required to IT0360.

child entity 5- ( fields specific to country- Greece) - mapping required to IT0361.

I have a challenge reading this child entities through compound employee API. I get the below error

Problem during invoking SuccessFactors Web service. SOAP faultCode ns2:Server, faultString SFAPI Domain Error!, errorCode INVALID_FIELD_NAME, errorMessage: Field cust_pension_statistic is not defined</String>

If I just configure the parent element, then I get the complete child entity data as well in payload but I cannot configure it in BIB as the metadata of the parent object does not contain fields in the child objects.

Can you guys please help me if it is possible to configure /code this requirement through BIB framework? Appreciate your quick inputs.

Thanks,

Sagarika
