refer to BPM in SWC SAP BASIS namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns -> Integration Process-> BpmPatternCollectTime

Your BPM would look the same.

In receive step mention your container for Abstract Interface of IDoc...

Hi,

Thanks to all for your reply,

Chirag --> My scenario is with same message type, the multiple message type example is not clear to me.

Satya --> My scenario is for sending idoc from R/3, and your given example is for receiving idoc at R/3

Hi,

There are two Message Mappings involved in the whole scenario. First mapping is N:1 Mapping which will be used in BPM and second Mapping is 1:1 Mapping:

1. First Message Mapping  N: 1 u2013 Mapping between IDoc (occurrence u2013 0...unbounded in u201CMessagesu201D tab) to IDoc with changed occurrence of its top node (IDOC) as 0...unbounded. This message mapping will be used in BPM u2013 transformation step.

Description: This BPM collects all Idocs for 10 minutes which are of Message Type (INVOICE ) according to Receiver Partner Number (Field u2013 RCVPRN) and calls N: 1 mapping to bundle the collected Idocs in a One External Definition for that IDOC.

Use

You use a wait step ( ) to incorporate a delay in a process. Usually, you use a delay to define when the next step in the process is to start. You can define a delay as either a point in time or a period of time.

At runtime, the step waits until the specified point in time is reached or the specified period of time has passed. The system then continues the process by proceeding with the next step.

Hi,

if your IDocs are of the same type you can use the time-dependent pattern:

http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/08/16163ff8519a06e10000000a114084/frameset.htm

You can find the complete example for this pattern in the Integration Repository under SAP Basis ® SAP Basis 6.40, namespace http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/Patterns
