Hi somenth,

What is the difference between Idoc and RFC adapter ? How to decide which one will be used?

A)in case of sender idoc means Sender IDOC adapter need not be configured because IDOC adapter

lies in ABAP engine - IDOC adpter resides in Integration engine.

Incase of receiver, whatever is the adapter, you need an adapter configuration and receiver

agreement - from the IE, the xml msg need to be sent to pipeline of idoc adapter,

so you need a recever agreement......

1. IDOC #

Idoc Adapter: The next most commonly used adapter is Idoc adapter for sending and receiving Idocs from SAP XI.

The foremost step before configuring the idoc adapter is the system settings that have to be done

Details:

In the case where we encounter a standard IDOC provided by SAP or Situation where a mapping is available or

an IDOC as well as a BAPI exits, the approach will be dependent on the specific integration scenarioo......

for For example, options might be

1) sending one IDOC at a time

2) combing multiple IDOCS and sending as a single IDOC.

3) making one single RFC call, for each business transation.

4) avoiding multiple calls to the same BAPI / RFC by deploying a wrapper BAPI and sending all records in one call.

5) Using the proxy and sending all data in one shot and making single calls to the BAPI from the proxy.

1. proxy and rfc adapter #

a proxy on the SAP application system should be used while interfacing with a standard BAPI or remote enabled

function modules on the application system. the proxy will be invoked by SAP PI/XI and on the application system

the proxy will call the BAPI. in SAP systems with WEB AS versions <6.20 the proxy option is not available and hence

the RFC adapter should be used insted.

Disadvantage:

pre-built meta data and the mapping that SAP delivers will not be usefull as the BAPI is wrapped with a proxy.

so if the pre-defined integration content is not taken into account the proxy should be used insted of configuring

the RFC adapter and calling the BAPI / RFC

Advantage:

it bypasses the adapter engine and directly interacts with the application system and integration engine thereby

enchancing the performance

2 )What is the role of the container element in BPM?

A)The workflow container contains an element which is defined with a data type reference to the same object type that is created in the referenced task, this binding definition is proposed automatically when an activity is defined.

If no element with an appropriate data type reference is available in the workflow container, a suitable element is added to the workflow container and the binding entered.

Defines the data for a business process and to enable data to be transferred between the individual steps of the business process.

consists of an unlimited number of container elements.

Container elements ( Variable declaration)

Consists of a name to address data in the process

Can be typed to

*Simple XSD ypes :XSD:data,XSD:time,XSD:integer, XSD:string.

*Abstract interface

*Receiver

*Can be multiline ( a vector of the types above)

3)How to restart the adapter engine or J2ee engine?

SMICM

4)What is the role of wndows1 and windows2 in SXMB_MONI?

Window1 and window2 will get you the message payload

we can check the messages in SXMB_moni

Hi Somenath,

Q What is the role of the container element in BPM?

Ans--Container element will reference the message at runtime.

QWhat is the difference between Idoc and RFC adapter ? How to decide which one will be used?

Ans--It depends on the requirement. If you have RFC at the sender SAP system, you go with RFC adapter. with RFC you can create synchronous scenario.But IDOC is always asynchronous.

QHow to restart the adapter engine or J2ee engine?

Ans- It can be done using SMICM t.code.

Q What is the role of wndows1 and windows2 in SXMB_MONI?

Ans--Its to see the payload of the message,before and after processing.

Q Is it possible to see the message after mapping ?If it is possible how to check?

Ans--in message mapping, click on SRC(Source code)

Thanks & Regards,

Bharath.

Hi,

>>What is the role of the container element in BPM?

it is used to define the Messages that are processing inside the BPM

>>What is the difference between Idoc and RFC adapter ? How to decide which one will be used?

In case of the sender, if we use Idoc means there is no adapter, Idoc will communicate with IS directly So the performance will be good while comparing with the RFC.

If u have the standard Idoc & the process is Async means use Idoc. If it is the Sync process measn use RFC

>>How to restart the adapter engine or J2ee engine?

goto smicm--AdministrationJ3ee Engine-Restart

>>What is the role of wndows1 and windows2 in SXMB_MONI?

window1 and window2 will display the content of the message payload in MONI

>>Is it possible to see the message after mapping ?If it is possible how to check?

Yes, we can see the message after the message processing in MONI---Technical RoutingPayload--main Doc
