XML File 2 XML File

Original guide from Srinivas Vanamala

Scenario

Suppose, you want to transfer a XML file (some user-defined XML format) from one system (Sender) to another system (Receiver) and also converting from one XML format to another XML format then you will use XI as an integration tool between the two systems.

Step by Step Solution

Step 1: Login into XI

Login into the SAP XI server using the logon pad.
Type sxmb_ifr transaction code to launch the Integration Builder.

Page will popup showing the first screen of the integration Builder which looks similar to this.

Step 2: System Landscape Directory

Click on the "System Landscape Directory" link.
This will open up the first screen of the SLD (System Landscape Directory). Here we are going to define our Product, Software Component, Technical System and Business System. (What is Product, Software Component, Technical System and Business system?)

Step 3: System Landscape Directory - Define a Product

First step is to define a Product. For that, click on "Software Catalog" link.
Click on "New Product" Button to create a Product.
Now define the Product as per the inputs and click on "Create" button.
Can you see this message on your page when u clicked "Create" button. (Keep an eye on such kind of messages on top of the page)
If yes then Great. Congratulations! You have created a Product successfully.

Step 4: System Landscape Directory - Define a Software Component

Next step is to create a Software Component. To make the life easier XI automatically takes u to the Software Component page and by default it will select the Product that you have created.

Now define the Software Component as per the inputs and click on "Create" button.
Fine! You are done with Product and Software Component. If you see this screen then lets go back to main SLD screen as we have created the product and software component successfully. To go back to the main SLD screenclick on "Home" Link on the top of the page.

Step 5: System Landscape Directory - Define Technical System

Now we need to define two Technical Systems (One for Sender and another for Receiver).

Click on "Technical Landscape" from the SLD main page.
When the page opens up select the Third-Party from the Technical System Type drop-down and press on the New Technical System button.
A page will pop-up asking for details of creating a Technical System.
Click on Next> button and then Fill all the values and then click on Next> again.
Your next screen will ask you where is your product? Just search in the box or select it from the list and when it is listed just double click it or select it and say "Add".
Points to be noted before pressing Finish:

Check that your Product is listed in the "Selected Products box"
In the Components is your Software Component is selected. It should be selected as per the figure shown below.
Checklist done! Okay enough reading click on "Finish" now.
Are you with me? - Just nod

Can you see this:

and

If Yes Great! We are on the same track then. Let's move ahead.
Now, I think you are intelligent enough to create one more Technical System. Just go back to the SLD Main Screen- This is can be done by clicking on "Home" link on the top.
When you reach to the SLD main screenclick on Technical System again to create the Receiver Technical System. Follow the steps as per used earlier in order to create the Sender Technical system.
Don't forget to select correct Productand Software Componentfrom the list displayed.
This is what I can see what about u?

and
Okay we have done with the Technical Systems and now we are going to create Business Systems. Go back to the SLD Home Page - Don't ask me how now it's shown in the top.

Step 6: System Landscape Directory - Define Business System

Click on the "Business Landscape" on the SLD Main Page.
This will open up the Business Landscape page. Just click on "New Business System" button.
Enter the Business system name and Press "Next>"
Select and Press "Next>"
Now select the Technical System for which you are creating the Business System.
Fill the fields with these values and press "Next>"
Don't forget to check the product. Anyhow by default it is selected. Just check that it is like this.
Select the Integration Server from the Drop down and Click on "Finish".
Now Lets see what u have learned till now. Create one more Business System with different Logical System name (Leg002). All other steps are same.
Can you see the two business system?
Okay now move to SLD Home pageagain and check that the Technical Systems are correctly added to the Products or not.
If you are at SLD Home pagethen click at "Software Catalog" and then search you Product.
Click on the version and this will show the Software Component.
To check the Technical system, click on "Installed Systems" this should show something like this.

*Can you see this? Yes Thank God! Okay fine we have done with the SLD (Products, Software Component, Technical Systemand Business System)
Just close the SLD window and now come back to our main XI screen.

Step 7: Integration Repository

Click to open the "Integration Repository" if you are using the XI for the first time this will take some loading time.
You will be shown an Integration Builder: Design Screen.
First step is to import the Software Component which you have created in the "System Landscape Directory"
Select you Software Component from the list shown and click on import button. Done importing - click on "Exit"
Now you can see the Software Component on the Left hand side with no objects in it.
Double click your Software Component, a page will open up in the right hand side. Can you see it?
Now everything will be in Disable mode to make it in Enable mode click in Edit or Change Icon.
Just enter the Namespace.
If you are not able to see the Namespace it will in the minimize mode. Just click on "Namespace" and then click on Cap button. This will maximize the Namespace box.
Press save icon
Can you see this on the left hand side?
Press save icon
Now we are going to create Two Data Types.
Right Click on Data types and click on "New".
Enter the details as per shown and press "Create" Button.
Now start inserting the Fields that you are going to have in the input XML file.
Create the Sender Data Type (dt_sender) which is some things like this.
Now we need to create the Receiver Data Type (dt_receiver) as per shown below:
Receiver Data type Fields:
Now we need to create two Messages Types one for Sender and other for Receiver. In order to create anything new just right click on the object on the left side and select "New".
Select the Data Type (dt_sender) for the Message Type (mt_sender) by clicking the help button and then save it.
Similar way, create the Receiver message type (mt_receiver) and then press save.
It's the time to create Interface now. Say "New" on the Message Interface on the left hand side
Please make sure that you selected Outbound and Asynchronous and then select the Message Type (mt_sender) using the help button . Your screen should be like this before u save it.
Now we need to create Receiver Interface. Say "New" and then fill the details as per shown.
This time the Category is Inbound and Mode is same Asynchronous and then select the Receiver Message Type - atlast save it.

Where we are?

We have Created two Data Types (dt_senderand dt_receiver)
Then we have created two Message Types (mt_senderand mt_receiver)
Last we have made 2 Interface (mi_senderand mi_receiver)
My Screen says this. What about urs?

Same output! Let's move ahead.

Now its time to map the fields of Sender Message type and Receiver Message Type. This can be done by creating a Message Mapping Program. A "Graphical Mapping" which maps the field of Sender to Receiver.
Here are the inputs for the Message Mapping Screen. Press "Create"
You can drag and drop the Message Types in the corresponding boxes shown as Black. Drag mt_senderMessage Type and drop it in the Black Box as shown
Same way drag and drop the mt_receiverMessage type on the Target Box.
Now drag the elements say PO_NUM from mt_senderand drop it on the right hand side SONUM field. As you do you can see that Red Color fields turns into Green which means we are doing it right. Complete the mapping by dragging and dropping onto the right hand side fields and see that all the target fields are in Green color.
In order to see the Mapping lines what you have done Graphically select the Option as displayed below. Right Click on the field and then select "Dependencies" and select "Show All"
Nice functionality Right! This is what called as Graphical Mapping. Save it.
Okay we have done with the Mapping program between the messages but we need to create mapping between the Interfaces even.
So, Select the Interface Mapping and say "New". Fill the details and Press "Create".
Now this is tricky. Here you can drag and drop the Interfaces on the white text boxes or you can use the help button to select the interface.

Once this is done click on Read Interface button below . This will add the interface in the below box and then u can select the message mapping program for this interface.
Okay now we are about to close this Integration Repository. Just select the Message Mapping Program using the help button. What was the mapping program? - (mt_.....).
Don't worry as I told XI has made life of us easier it will show only one message mapping program just select it.
Good! This is what I Can see now? Okay then save the work.
Now its testing time before saying yes we have done everything correct in the Designing Part. Click on the "Test" tab in the same Interface Mapping Screen.
Enter the values and press "Execute" button on the same screen
Does it works? If Yes wow! This is what I can see? and
The message box says:
Messages:16:12:37 Start of test
Executed successfully
16:12:42 End of test
Here is the list from my XI Tool. Now its time to activate. This is something like results time after you write the exam but here best thing is you can see the errors but in real exam result we can feel the beatings?
To activate click on the "Change List" tab
Expand your Component and Do it by yourself!
Change the name of the Activate List and then press the "Activate" button in the bottom.
Hurray ! My first design is Successful.

Step 8: Integration Configuration

Close the Integration Builder:Design and move onto the Configuration part. Open the XI Startup screen. Click on "Integration Directory"
I am here now into the Integration Directory now right click on the left side box and select "New". It's okay that Scenario is selected.
Just fill the values and press "Create". Then you need to save it in order to see the Configuration Scenario on the left hand side.
Fine! Spit on your hand for some more work.
Did you remember what we did in SLD? Yes, we created Product, Software Component, Technical System and Business System.
Product and Software Componentis used in Design Part and here we are going to use the Business system?
Why not Technical system? My Favorite Question?
If you remember correctly when we create the Business system in SLD we selected the Technical system from the drop down menu means if you are going to use the Business system then indirectly you are linked with the Technical System.
In Design also we have imported Software Component not the Product because When we create the Software Component we have selected the Product. So, they both are linked.
How Business systems are linked with Product?
We selected the Product when we created the Technical System. So your Business Systems are linked with the Product. Also the objects that you have designed in the Design part are linked with the Software Component which is inturn linked with the Product and Product linked with the Technical system and Technical system linked with the Business system.
Huuuuuuufffffffff! Soo much linked. Where were we? - We are in the Configuration part and next step is to import the Business System? Right click the Business system and select "Assign Business System" this will opens up a wizard.
First screen is Introduction (Sorry no theory as I promised) just say "Continue" button and then it will ask for Party - Sorry no Party say "Continue" button. Select the Business system and press "Finish" button.
Next step Right Click on the Communicate Channel and say "New".
Now configure your Sender Communicate channel. First Click on the Help button to select the Adapters - Select "File"
Then select "Sender" and give the
Source Directory: <Create a folder in the XI Server and then give the path>
FileName: <File that need to be picked up by XI>
Processing Mode: Delete [Delete the file once it has been picked up by Adapter]
All other are default
Let's not discuss what each of the Fields do. I just mentioned what need to be changed.
Folder path should be XI Server system path not your system folder path. As I have installed it on my machine that is the reason I have given my C:/ path but If you are having XI server not on your machine then create the folder in the XI Server and give the Local path.
Its logically make sense that from where XI will pick up the file, give that path and check that can Adapter access that path from XI server. I mean a share drive. Did u understand?
If yes smile and save the Sender Communication channel.
Now in the same manner create the Receiver Communication Channel. I know you are clever you know how to do this?
My Screen is like this. Only Filename and Target Directory are different.
Left hand side Communication channel are like this
Done! Next is "Receiver Determination"
Did I told u that XI makes our job easier then here it is the proof. Just use the help button to select the Service means your Business system and in the Interface box it will present you the correct interface just select. Before closing, match the following input as below.
You know what you are doing here? We are trying to say to XI that this is the
Sender Business system, Sender Interface, Sender Namespace (This is the key)
And to this sender information we need to map the Receiver Business system. In order to do that select the Help option from the "Service" option in "Configured Receivers"
After selecting the Receiver Business System. Click on "Save"
Now we will create Interface Determination. Just select as it is shown
Fill as it has shown below.
This interface Determination will ask for Inbound Interface and also for Interface Mapping. Just use help button to select it. Always save when it is done.
Next Sender Agreement
Nothing special we do here. We just attach the Communication channel to the Sender Key (Sender Business system, Sender Interface, Sender Namespace)
Simple as it shows. "Save"
Now same way create Receiver Agreement. Thinking How? Now I need to raise my Eyebrow.
Simple again. Just select the Receiver Communication Channel.

Are we in the same Boat?
You know what? We have done the scenario. Its time for result
Activate the scenarios same steps as we have done in the Design part. You need to move to "Change List" tab in order to see the activate option.
Yupp we are there! Smile on my face
Are we done? Where is the output? What's next? So, XI is going to run the file? What I need to do Next? Finished?
These were the question when I did my first Hello world scenario using XI by reading the Blogs. They just end up saying "Provide the input file and then you will get the output file". You know one my student gave XSD content as the input when he did the first scenario. Don't worry I am not going to leave half path. lets go to the target and shout from there that we have done it!
Now XI will be a Scheduler job which tries to search for the file in the "Sender Folder" what is this? This is the folder (C:/XI_FILES/SENDER) that we have configured in the Sender Communication Channel and also we gave the file name to pick up. As the file is not there so there will not be any output in the Receiver Folder (C:/XI_FILES/RECEIVER)
So how can I provide the file to XI? You need to create a file xi_xmlfile_input.dat in the folder C:/XI_FILES/SENDER But what is the content. Content should be XML data. But where can I get it? I will show you.
Open your Design: Integration Builder and open you Software Component and then open the Mapping Objects under it open Message Mappings select the mm_mapping. This will open the mapping program.
On the right hand side. Select the Test Tab and click on Source Document View button
Can you see the XML? Yes good
Copy this and paste it into the file C:/XI_FILES/SENDER/xi_xmlfile_input.dat only the xml contents and now wait for the XI to pick the file. Once XI picks the file then it will delete the file.
Hurray I got the output file!
How to debug if anything went wrong? Login into the XI server and type the TCode "SXMB_MONI" this will take u to the message monitoring screen. Just select the first option then press "Execute". One more screen opens up Just Press "Execute" again.
Now open the message which has your business service name. If it is in red color box then error or else if you are seeing what I am seeing then You have successfully created a "XML FILE 2 XML FILE Scenario" from Scratch.
