Counting the number of IDocs in a package of IDocs in BPM

[Former Member]

Hello All,

I need a solution where I need to count the number of EDI_DC40 segments (The IDoc Count) in a package of IDoc's. The following is the scenario

1) We are receiving a package of IDoc's in receive step using the XI File Adapter. I was wondering if there is a way that I can count the number of IDoc's in the BPM using a container operation or some other Method. I appreciate any help.

Thanks.

You can do this using the Statistical Function Count inside a mapping program and then store it in a variable.
