MultiMapping to BAPIS

[Former Member]

Hi

I got WS->BAPIS scenario

one Message Type needs to be mapped to 4 BAPIS

what will b the best way to do it?

its a synchronic interface , and in the interface mapping it wont let me add the 4 bapis ( for request n reply )

bcz its synchronic

thx,Shai

Do not use a BPM for this.

Instead create 4 message interfaces and 4 inetrface determinations.That should soleve the problem.

thx for the answer Stefan,Ill try to cr8 wrapper RFC

can u ellborate on using interfaces structure from the web service? do u have relevant weblogs/pdfs?

thx,shai

Hi Shai,

are you an ABAP developer? Then create a wrapper RFC with calls the BAPI and sends the result back.

When your application is 6.20 or higher, you can use the message interfaces structure from the web services and create sync. inbound proxies as a wrapper. In that case you need no mapping at all.

If you are using RFC instead of ABAP proxy, don't care about the interface of the web service. Just create an RFC with input and output parameters that fit to your scenario. You have to do a mapping between web service and RFC anyway.

Hi Shai,

If "WS" stands for webservice and it expects a response and if the BAPIs that you have imported have a response structure in them...then, you are dealing with a sync-sync scenario.

Is your source message ready for four responses?? How exactly are you planning to do the mapping - both request and response-please explain your mapping in detail.

Hello Shai,

Sound to me like you need a BPM with a sync/async bridge, followed by a fork with 4 branches (it's a fork that runs all branches).

Each branch can call a specific Bapi and save its sync result.

After the fork perform a mapping from the 4 sync results (the mapping sources), and build the WS sync response (the mapping target).

Then you close the sync/async bridge by a send step- sending your WS response.

[stefan_grube]

You should never do this, when you expect much traffic on the system or a dialog user waiting for the response.

It is OK to use BPM, when a expect only low traffic for this scenario.
