Hi Ram,

2. Do you think SEEBURGER BIC mapping designer is must for developing maps ? cant we develop same maps in XI mapping editor?

BIC(Business integration Converter) is the Mapping Designer which contains all the standard mappings which will converts EDI message to EDI-XML format which is accepted by XI and EDI-XML to EDI message format which is accepted by the EDI partner.

And also we can develop our custom mappings also and we can use them in XI.

Thank you.

Whats the way of doing mapping using seeburger adapters

The standard mappings are part of Seeburger Suite and if any additional mapping has to be accommodated, then custom mapping could be developed in Seeburger BIC Mapper tool. This has to deployed on adapter engine then. The other mapping is the normal XI mapping (message, java, xsl) which could be performed based on business logic.

error handling in the mapping ?

The easiest way is to raise Alert based on the errors in mapping.

Hi Prateek,

Thanks for your early response, Do you think the Alert configuration is the only way to handle errors in EDI mappings in PI and no other mechanism is there ?

Thanks,

Ram.

Monitoring can be done in the Seeburger Workbench or u may write ur own code for handling errors. But alert monitoring is the easiest way to handle the XI related errors.

Or u may write entries to the Audit log if u want the monitoring at XI to be enhanced.
