Runtime errors in BPM

[Former Member]

Hi all,

We have a transformation step that is generating mapping errors at runtime. We do not see alerts generated by default on the alert framework for these errors. Is this expected? Should we be implementing the alert generation specifically inside the BPM using exception block (if it alerts are not generated by default)?

Thanks

Of course.

Not every scenario will require alerts to be raised.

Some times, you can have automatic exception handling inside BPM itself.

So far as your alerts are configured accurately, they should be triggered. Ensure you dont have the multiple switch disabled in alert config.

Have you ever successfully thrown this alert category inside or outside BPM for mapping?

Perhaps check your criteria and make it as generic as possible (*)

Naomi,

The mapping alert category has succesfully generated alerts outside BPM, and the configuration does not have the multiple switch checked. Finally, the alert is very generic. In all of our environments the behavior is the same, no alerts are generated for the runtime mapping error.

Hi,

If you are using BPM, it is prefer to throw an Alert from BPM itself. Anyway if you configure the alert for Message Mapping, if there is any Runtime Mapping Errors it should throw alerts.

Btw, you can cross check this guide to find more tips:

/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/09/09/xi-alerts--troubleshooting-guide

So It should show alerts for Transformation Error if you configure the Alerts correctly

Hope this helps,

Rgds,
