container

[Former Member]

while creating container why we set multiline property for it.

<u>CollectEmhdr</u> is used to retrieve Abstract form of IDOC type ZEMHDR.ZEMHDR02.

<u>CollectEmhdrlist</u> is used to collect the IDOC of type ZEMHDR.ZEMHDR02 , and so we have set its Multiline as true.

The answer is there in your qurey itself as I replied in the other post.

Multiline is use whenever you are collecting messages using that container variable. It appends messages.

If multiline is not checked it would overwrite the message and at the end the container will only hold the last message that was received.

>>CollectEmhdr is used to retrieve Abstract form of IDOC type ZEMHDR.ZEMHDR02.

This receives only one iDoc and hence no need to set the multiline option.

ONE LAST QUESTION

THEN WHY TWO CONTAINER VARIABLES ONE IS ENOUGH?

>>WHY TWO CONTAINER VARIABLES ONE IS ENOUGH?

Yes. But the use case would have been diff.

Check if both the variables are used in the same BPM. It would not be the case.

Or there might have been two declacration and only one would have been used.

Hi,

Couple of things like any programming language.

1. Container is like a local variable of a function that is it holds the mesage that are passed to it and used in the BPM transformation.

2. If you are passing multiple value or an array of values the Continer should be enabled as multiline container. It is similar like an array variable.

In case of collect pattern multiple idocs are of same time i.e. an array of idoc is passed to BPM to store this the container variable is enabled as multiline. So every IDoc messages are appended with the existing message for that instance.

Thanks

can you explain the example
