“A big shout out to my fellow road warriors Dave Propst and Alistair Rooney for
their valuable contributions, not only to this quick guide book, but to the SAP
integration community as a whole.
Dave and I have worked several projects together and he’s my number 1 go to
guy for Integration Architecture stuff….
Whereas Alistair literally wrote the book on ABAP and Java! Who knows it better
than him? I challenge you to find someone….
Although this book runs the older release of XI, I still have folks finding it useful in
pulling it together for the new versions of PI. The screens may have changed but
the concept and objects haven’t changed too much. This book helped several
folks find their legs in XI to such an extent that they became XI and now PI
consultants and make a decent living out of it. If this is too old for you then don’t
print it and carry on with life, but if it is then know that I am pleased that it has
helped out a little. Please don’t ask me to update it to the latest version, as I have
moved on to more fun topics like SAP Event Management and Sybase ESP ;)”

Creating a BPM Scenario in XI
Introduction © Genie Press 2007 Page 8 of 159
Introduction
Background
Exchange Infrastructure has grown out of the enormously disparate world of –
and I use this in its most general sense – Electronic Data Interchange. Exchange
Infrastructure 3.0 brings together a lot of technologies. Some of these
technologies are open standards that have been embraced over the years and
have become the de facto standard. These are XML and its cousins SOAP,
WSDL, XPATH, XSLT and so on. Other technologies are proprietary to SAP AG,
like IDOCS, ALE, ABAP Objects and even certain class libraries used by Java.
One of the most interesting developments in recent years has been the
emergence of graphical mapping to chart out an organization’s business
processes. One of the leaders in this has been the ARIS product. SAP and IDS
Scheer1
have teamed up to bring us Business Process Management or BPM. XI
plays an important role in this by “linking” the business processes together.
This book describes the process to map a BPM scenario in XI. It covers the 5
phases required:
 System configuration
 Integration Builder Design
 Integration Builder Configuration
 SAP Configuration
 Testing
It does not try to describe all the functionality that you will encounter in XI and the
BPM module. After all BPM is larger than just XI and conversely XI is more than
just BPM! It does not attempt to provide you with a production solution for the
scenario provided. The scenario is made up to incorporate as many aspects of XI
messaging and BPM as is feasible.
A note about authorization: The tasks in the system configuration phase will take
a higher level of authorization then the remaining 4 phases. The tasks in the first
phase will require the role of SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR. The remaining for
phases can be performed by a user with the role of SAP_XI_DEVELOPER.

How to use this book
The book is written in such a way as to be a step by step quick guide to
implementing the given scenario. It details, as far as possible, every step that is
required in order to deliver the documented scenario. It also assumes, although
you may be able to muddle through, that you have a basic knowledge of XI 3.0
and some XML fundamentals.

after the table of contents.
The Scenario
An external system (DEMO) sends an XML representation of an order through to
XI. We want to transform this order in to a small BPM message destined for the
BPM engine and also transform it in to an ORDERS05 IDoc destined for the
CRM system.
This ORDERS05 IDoc creates a sales order in CRM which is then replicated to
the ECC system, via middleware. The sales order in ECC then generates an
ORDRSP IDoc which is then sent to XI. This ORDRSP IDoc is then transformed
in to a small BPM message that is correlated with the ORDERS BPM message
sent earlier. It is also transformed in to an order response XML message which is
sent through the FTP Adapter to a specific file on the Integration server. The
BPM also has timeout and exception handling capabilities using the alert
framework as well as the email adapter.
Don’t Panic – this all seems rather daunting at this point but the diagram in
Figure 1 will simplify our task considerably!

Phase 2 – Integration Builder Design © Genie Press 2007 Page 12 of 159
PHASE 1 : SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
We have 4 “systems” in our scenario:
 The Demo system sending the order in XML format
 The CRM system that receives the ORDERS IDoc in order to create a
sales order
 The ECC system that sends the ORDRSP IDoc to XI and ultimately to an
email address
 The XI system housing the interfaces, the BPM scenario and the adapter
framework
We’ll go through configuring the Demo system as a Software Component.
Furthermore we will assume that the CRM and ECC business systems have
been set up and imported in to the Integration Directory. We’ll be covering the
adding of the communication channels (We will use the IDoc adapter) to these
business services.
All our design work will be done under the DEMOCOMPONENT Software
Component.
1.1. Software Component
So, let’s get going with our first task. We need to configure the DEMO system if it’s
not a part of the business landscape. In our case we need to create
DEMOCOMPONENT as a Software Component in the SLD. Most SAP shops do not
allow just anyone into the SLD. This task is usually performed by a development
lead or basis. You will need the SAP_XI_ADMINISTRATOR or
SAP_XI_CONTENT ORGANIZER role to perform the SLD tasks. You may need
to have basis set this up for you.
1. Log in to the XI server
2. Run transaction SXMB_IFR to start the Integration Builder

Figure 2: Integration Builder
3. Start System Landscape Directory
4. Click on Software Catalog
5. Click on New Product
6. Enter a vendor, name and version and Create
7. Now you need to add a Software Component. Enter Vendor, name
(Software Component name), version and Create
8. Your Software Component should look like that shown in Figure 3
Figure 3: Software Component Version
1.2. Clear SLD Cache
1. Fire up the Integration Directory (CONFIGURATION)
2. Clear the cache using the menu option as shown in Figure 4: Environment
-> Clear SLD Data Cache2
.
Figure 4: Clear SLD Cache Data
2
The Systems Landscape Directory can be viewed as a separate entity to the Integration Builder.
So, if we had to access the SLD from the Integration Builder every time we made a change, it
would slow the whole process down considerably. The obvious solution was to provide a cache
that holds the SLD information within the Integration Builder. Unfortunately this means that when
we make a change to the SLD – our changes will not be picked up by the Integration Builder. For
this reason we always clear the SLD cache and reload the SLD Software Components.

1.3. Import Software Component
1. Start the Integration Repository
2. Import your Software Component. From the menu choose Tools ->
Transfer from System Landscape Directory -> Import Software
Component Versions
Figure 5: Import Software Component Version
3. Select Demo component and click Import
4. Once it’s been successfully imported click exit
5. Double click your Software Component version DEMOCOMPONENT
6. Create a namespace (http://www.demo.com/xi) and Save
Figure 6: Create Namespace

PHASE 2 : INTEGRATION BUILDER DESIGN
In order to map an interface we need certain elements to be defined. We define
these elements in the integration repository. These elements include:
 Data Type
 Message Type
 Message interface
 Message Mapping
 Mapping Interface
Interface
Message Interface
(WSDL)
Message Type
(XSD)
Data Type
(XSD)
Mapping
Interface Mapping
(Receiver Determination,
Interface Determination,
Sender agreement,
Receiver agreement)
Message Mapping
Figure 7: XI Interface Process
These elements will then be used in the XI configuration phase to assemble the
required interface.
2.1. External Definitions
The email XSD provided by SAP needs to be uploaded as an external definition.
This will save us a huge amount of work since we now have a preformatted
structure to use in our interface. This is just one of the cool new features with XI
3.0!

2.1.1. XI_MAIL
1. Open up your applicable namespace under the DEMCOMPONENT
software component
2. Open Interface Objects
3. Right click External Definitions -> New
4. Enter Name (XI_MAIL) and Description -> Create
5. Change category to XSD
Figure 8: External Definition Category
6. Click to “Import External Definitions”
7. Browse to the XIMAIL30.XSD file -> Open (See definition at APPENDIX
C)
8. Your External definition should look like that shown in Figure 9
Figure 9: External Definition - Mail Message Definition
9. Check that your External Definition has 3 messages associated with it as
shown in Figure 10. We do this by clicking on the Messages tab. This is

an important step, if you do not see the messages defined here; there was
a problem with the import.
Figure 10: External Definition - Mail Messages
Naming Conventions
At this point I’d like a quick word, if you don’t mind. It’s important that we emphasize the
importance of Naming Conventions here. As you have probably noticed, Data Types have a
prefix of DT, Message Types have a prefix of MT and Message Interfaces have MI and so on.
This is not the whole picture, however. You may want to qualify the interfaces further by using a
suffix of OUT for outbound (Remember this is outbound from the server – never from XI) and IN
for inbound. Trust us, (We’re professionals), defining your standards up front will take away hours
of frustration later.
2.2. Data Types
Now that we have our mail structure, we need to create 3 new data types (It may
be a good idea to read the sidebar on “Naming Conventions” first):
 DT_ORDER: The XML definition of the order message being sent in from
the demo vendor using the SOAP protocol
 DT_ORDERRESPONSE: The XML definition of the order response
message being save to an FTP drive
 DT_BPM_TRIGGER: A small XML message that we will use to send
through the BPM process. Whenever possible, it’s best not to send large
files through the BPM process. Both the ORDERS and
ORDERRESPONSE messages will create a message of this type which
will be correlated with each other
Let’s have a look at each of these Data Types in more detail:

2.2.1. DT_ORDERS
1. Right click data types -> New
2. Enter Name and Description -> Create
3. Complete the definition as shown in Figure 11 (See the XSD definition in
APPENDIX A on page 137) and yes, if you’re feeling lazy, you could just
import this – but keying it in will give you a better understanding of the
whole process!

2.2.3. DT_BPM_TRIGGER
APPENDIX A on page 141)
Figure 13: Data Type - DT_BPM_TRIGGER

2.3. Message Types
Now that we have the data types we need to build the next “layer” up by creating
3 message types:
 MT_ORDER: Linked to Data type DT_ORDER and used in Message
Interface MI_ORDER
 MT_ORDERRESPONSE: Linked to Data type DT_ORDERRESPONSE
and used in Message Interface MI_ORDERRESPONSE
 MT_BPM_TRIGGER: Linked to Data type DT_BPM_TRIGGER and used
in Message Interfaces MI_BPM_TRIGGER (Orders) and
MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH (Order Response)
Let’s have a look at each of these in more detail:
2.3.1. MT_ORDER
1. Right mouse click Message Types -> New
3. Select the data type DT_ORDER by clicking
Figure 14: Message Type - MT_ORDER
4. Save

2.3.2. MT_ORDERRESPONSE
3. Select the data type DT_ORDERRESPONSE by clicking
Figure 15: Message Type - MT_ORDERRESPONSE
4. Save
2.3.3. MT_BPM_TRIGGER
3. Select the data type DT_BPM_TRIGGER by clicking

Figure 16: Message Type - MT_BPM_TRIGGER
4. Save
2.4. Message Interfaces
Right! Take a coffee break here if you need one. The next “layer” is the Message
Interface layer. We need to create 5 Message Interfaces. Go back to the
diagram in Figure 1 on page 11 to refresh your memory:
 MI_ORDER: Outbound asynchronous interface of type MT_ORDER. This
interface will be configured with 2 receivers. 1 being the CRM system
receiving the ORDERS IDoc using the IDoc adapter and the second being
the Integration process for the message interface MI_BPM_TRIGGER.
We’ll also configure a Sender Agreement for this message interface for
the SOAP call using the SOAP adapter
 MI_ORDERRESPONSE: Inbound asynchronous interface of type
MT_ORDERRESPONSE. This will be configured between the ECC and
DEMO system. The DEMO system will receive the Order Response via
the FILE adapter
 MI_EMAIL: Abstract asynchronous interface of External Definition type
XI_MAIL (Configured in 2.1.1. XI_MAIL)
 MI_BPM_TRIGGER: Abstract asynchronous interface of type
MT_BPM_TRIGGER. This will serve as the interface for the ORDER
message getting to the BPM engine. It will be correlated with the
MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH using the DocNum field
 MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH: Abstract asynchronous interface of type
MT_BPM_TRIGGER. This will serve as the interface for the

ORDERRESPONSE message getting to the BPM engine. It will be
correlated with the MI_BPM_TRIGGER using the DocNum field. This is
the terminating portion of the BPM process
2.4.1. MI_ORDER
1. Right mouse click Message Interfaces -> New
3. Select Outbound and Asynchronous
4. Select the Message type MT_ORDER by clicking
5. Your Message Interface should look like that shown in Figure 17
Figure 17: Message Interface - MI_ORDER

4. Select the External Definition XI_MAIL - Mail by clicking
5. Expand External Definitions -> XI_MAIL
6. Select Mail as shown in Figure 21

2.5. Import IDoc Type
Only perform this step if you do not already have access to the applicable IDoc
message type in one of the Software Components. You should see it there if you
do! We will import the IDoc types to the DEMO component. (Have a look at
Figure 23).
2.5.1. ORDERS.ORDERS05 and ORDRSP.ORDERS05
1. Under the DEMO component - right mouse click on imported objects ->
New
2. Enter system and login details -> Continue
3. When the results come back expand the IDoc tree
4. Select the applicable IDocs (ORDERS.ORDERS05 and
ORDRSP.ORDERS05) -> Finish
Figure 23: Importing IDoc Types

2.6. Message Mapping
OK now we need to bring these all together with Message Mappings! We will
need to create the 5 Message Mappings that we need as follows:
 MM_Order_to_ORDERS05: The MT_ORDER Message Type will be
mapped to the ORDERS (ORDERS05) IDoc
 MM_Order_to_BPM_TRIGGER: The MT_ORDER Message Type will
also be mapped to the small MT_BPM_TRIGGER message type which
will be used to kick off the BPM scenario
 MM_ORDERS05_to_OrderResponse: The ORDRSP (ORDERS05) IDoc
will be sent from the ECC system and mapped to the
MT_ORDERRESPONSE XML Message Type
 MM_ORDRSP_to_BPM_TRIGGER: The ORDRSP (ORDERS05) IDoc
will also be mapped to our MT_BPM_TRIGGER message type which will
correlate to the ORDERS BPM message and effectively end the BPM
process
 MM_BPM_to_EMAIL: This is a mapping between the message type
MT_BPM_TRIGGER and the XI_MAIL -> Mail External Definition Type
which will form an email message. This will be used in the BPM process to
send out an email message when the Order Response message is not
received in a specified period of time
2.6.1. MM_Order_to_ORDERS05
1. Open Mapping Objects
2. Right mouse click Message Mappings -> New
4. Click the button to choose a source message and enter MT_ORDER
message type
5. Click the button to choose a target message and enter

2.7. Interface Mapping
This is a good point to review what we’ve done so far. We’ve created the
necessary data types, XSD imports, message types, Message Interfaces,
imported IDocs and created Message Mappings. Whew! A lot of work I know, but
we’re nearly there! We now need to bring this all together by creating 5 interface
mappings as follows:
 IM_Order_to_ORDERS05:
o Source interface: MI_ORDER
o Target interface: ORDERS.ORDERS05
o Message mapping: MM_Order_to_ORDERS05Error! Bookmark not defined.
 IM_Order_to_BPM_TRIGGER:
o Source interface: MI_ORDER
o Target interface: MI_BPM_TRIGGER
o Message mapping: MM_Order_to_BPM_TRIGGER
 IM_ORDRSP_to_OrderResponse:
o Source interface: ORDRSP.ORDERS05
o Target interface: MI_ORDERRESPONSE
o Message mapping MM_ORDERS05_to_OrderResponse
 IM_ORDRSP_to_BPM_TRIGGER_CATCH:
o Source interface: ORDRSP.ORDERS05
o Target interface: MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH
o Message mapping MM_ORDRSP_to_BPM_TRIGGER
 IM_BPM_to_EMAIL:
o Source interface: MI_BPM_TRIGGER

o Target interface: MI_EMAIL
o Message mapping: MM_BPM_to_EMAIL

2.8. Integration Scenario
The Integration Scenario is a great way to document (Yes we know, it’s
sometimes seen as a bad word) your BPM process. This is the fun part as a
reward for all your hard work so far. We need to first create our actions before we
can put together our integration scenario. Again, notice the descriptive names we
use for these actions.
2.8.1. Actions
6 Actions need to be created as follows:
 Send_Order: Demo system sends order using Message Interface
MI_ORDER. It has 2 receivers, being the Integration Process
(IP_ORDER) and the CRM system
 Receive_Order: Receive the ORDERS IDoc in to the CRM system
 Receive_BPM_TRIGGER: Receive the Message Type
MT_BPM_TRIGGER via the Message Interface
MI_BPM_TRIGGER. This will be correlated (through field DocNum)
to the MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH Message Interface
 Send_OrderResponse: Send the ORDRSP IDoc from the ECC
system. This IDoc will then have 2 receivers, being the Integration
Process (IP_ORDER) and the DEMO system

 Receive_OrderResponse: Receive the Message Type
MT_OrderResponse via Message Interface
MI_ORDERRESPONSE
 Receive_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH: Receive the Message Type
MT_BPM_TRIGGER via the Message Interface
MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH. This then correlates (through field
DocNum) to the MI_BPM_TRIGGER Message Interface of the
Send_Order action
2.8.1.1. Send_Order
1. Open Integration Scenarios & Integration Processes
2. Right mouse click Actions -> New
3. Enter Name Send_Order and Description -> Create

actions together with the system components, showing the interfacing between
the systems.
2.8.2.1. IS_Orders
3. Enter Name IS_Orders and Description -> Create
4. Right mouse click the first swim lane on the left and Insert Application
Component

7. Click the Further Attributes tab and enter extended name Order
8. Your application component should look as described in Figure 42

Figure 42: Integration Scenario - Application Component
9. Click Apply
10.Your Integration Scenario should now look as described in Figure 43. Note
that these vertical columns that we are building up are termed “Swim
Lanes”. If you’ve done any swimming you’ll know why, if not, don’t worry
about it.
Figure 43: Integration Scenario - Component Added
11.Similarly - now we need to add 3 more systems:
a. Integration Process (Template Type)
b. CRM (Business System)
c. ECC (Business System)
12.Right mouse click the second swim lane and Insert Application
Component
13.Select Template -> Enter role name IntegrationProcess
14.Select Further Attributes tab
15.Enter XI BPM in the Extended Name field

16.Click Apply
17.Right mouse click the third swim lane and Insert Application Component
18.Select your business System for CRM entering the Role name and
Extended name attributes -> Apply
19.Right mouse click the forth swim lane and Insert Application Component
20.Select your business System for ECC entering the Role name and
Extended name attributes -> Apply
21.Your Integration Scenario should now have 4 swim lanes and look as
shown in Figure 44

22.Now we need to add our actions that we created earlier to the Integration
Scenario – are you getting excited yet?
23.Right mouse click the Order swim lane at the top -> Insert Action
Figure 45: Integration Scenario - Insert Action
24.Expand your Software Component for the Demo system and select the
Action Send_Order -> Apply as shown in Figure 46

Figure 46: Integration Scenario - Insert Send_Order
25.Your Integration Scenario now looks as described in Figure 47
Figure 47: Integration Scenario - Send_Order added
26.We now will add the 2 receive actions. One in the integration process and
1 in the CRM system
27.Another way of adding actions is to drag and drop them on to the right
swim lane at the right position. This is pretty cool so we’ll use this
technique to add all the actions!
28.Drag the Receive_BPM_TRIGGER to the 2nd
swim lane below the level of
the send order action (this ensures that it’s not treated as a parallel action
to the send order. We need this in order to link them together).
29.Similarly Drag the Receive_Order to the 3rd
swim lane (CRM) below the
level of the send order action and adjacent to the
Receive_BPM_TRIGGER action (again this tells XI not to treat these as
parallel or synchronous actions).

Figure 48: Integration Scenario - Added Receive Order
30.Now add the last 3 actions (to end up with a view as shown in Figure 49)
as follows:
a. Send_OrderResponse in ECC system down and to the right of Receive_Order
b. Receive_OrderResponse in Demo system down and to the left of
Send_OrderResponse
c. Receive_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH in Integration Process template down and to
the left of Send_OrderResponse and adjacent to Receive_OrderResponse
Figure 49: Integration Scenario - All actions added
31.This is great! We have all the actions, but now we need to focus on
linking the actions together
32.Single click the Send_Order action -> Hold down the Shift Key and single
click the Receive_BPM_TRIGGER action to select both
33.Right mouse click one of the selected actions -> Create Connection
Between Selected Actions as shown in Figure 50

Figure 50: Integration Scenario - Create connection between actions
34.The screen displaying the connection between outbound interface
MI_ORDER and inbound interface MI_BPM_TRIGGER should be
displayed
35.Click the Assign Mapping tab
36.Click the button in the Assign Interface Mapping Name field to choose
Interface Map IM_Order_to_BPM_TRIGGER
37.Click Apply
38.An arrow is now drawn from Send_Order to Receive_BPM_TRIGGER as
shown in Figure 51

39.Similarly connect the following actions together and add the respective
interface mappings shown in parentheses:
a. Send_Order -> Receiver_Order (IM_Order_to_ORDERS05)
b. Send_OrderResponse -> Receive_OrderResponse
(IM_ORDRSP_to_OrderResponse)
c. Send_OrderResponse -> Receive_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH
(IM_ORDRSP_to_BPM_TRIGGER_CATCH)
40.Your integration scenario should now look as shown in Figure 52

Figure 52: Integration Scenario - Completed Connections
41.We can now define our action start and end points
42.The Send_Order is our start action so Right mouse click Send_Order
43.Click Define Action as Start Action as shown in Figure 53

44.Similarly we will define the Receive_OrderResponse and
Receive_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH actions as end actions
45.Right mouse click Receive_OrderResponse and select Define Action as
End Action
46.Right mouse click Receive_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH and select Define
Action as End Action
47.After completion of the definition of the Integration Process described in
2.9. Integration Process starting on page 51, you need to add the
Integration Process to the Integration Process Component
a. Double click the Integration Process component and select the
Integration Process tab
b. Select IP_ORDERS as the name from the dropdown list
c. Your definition should now look as shown in Figure 54

Figure 54: Integration Scenario - Link Integration Process
48.Your overall Integration Scenario IS_Orders should look as shown in
Figure 55
Figure 55: Integration scenario – IS_Orders
2.9. Integration Process
The integration process handles the workflow within the BPM engine. It is based
on SAP’s webflow (workflow) engine.
The integration process that we need will contain the following functionality:
 Receive the order message (Abstract interface MI_BPM_TRIGGER).
Activate correlation on field DocNum
 Assign DocNum to a container element called DocNum
 Wait for the receipt of the order response message (Abstract interface
MI_BPM_TRIGGER_MATCH). Use correlation on DocNum

 If the order response message does not come in 5 minutes, then fire off
an alert and send an email
 If the order response message is received in time then end the process
gracefully
 If the entire integration process does not end in 30 minutes then fire off an
alert and cancel the process. This prevents an orphan process from
hanging around in the BPM engine forever, which will use unnecessary
resources.
For the completed view of what we will develop see Figure 56. We will be
working in the Container, Properties and Graphical Definition windows. We will
also switch to the Correlation Editor to perform the correlation mapping there.

3.5. Use Wizard to set up Determination and Agreements
We have performed the previous steps to set up your communication channels,
business system and services so that we can use the wizard to easily create our
message interface components comprising the receiver and Interface
Determination together with the sender and receiver agreements.
Using the wizard
You do not have to use the wizard and could choose to create these manually. Using the wizard,
however, is not only an efficient way to define your interfaces, but it is more intuitive to work with
when you have several interfaces to define in a short period of time. For example, our scenario
comprises of 5 interfaces and it’s really handy to be able to define each in its entirety (through the
wizard) before continuing with the next one.

Phase 4 – SAP Configuration © Genie Press 2007 Page 120 of 159
PHASE 4 : SAP CONFIGURATION
Since we are using IDocs and the IDoc adapter we need to configure the IDoc
adapter and port.
4.1. Maintain Port in IDoc adapter
4.1.1. SAPCRM
1. On the XI server use Transaction IDX1
2. Create a new port SAPCRS and complete the Port, client and RFC
destination (Ensure the RFC destination to the CRM system exists and is
operational. Use SM59 to set up and test)
3. This Port relates to the port listed in the communication channel (for the
IDoc adapter) for the business system SAPCRM described in 3.4.4.
GeneratedReceiverChannel_IDoc on page 80.
4. Your port definition should look something like that shown in Figure 178
Figure 178: Maintain port in IDoc adapter - SAPCRM

Phase 4 – SAP Configuration © Genie Press 2007 Page 121 of 159
4.2. Maintain Metadata Overview for IDoc adapter
4.2.1. ORDERS05
This is where you register the allowable IDoc type’s metadata for the IDoc
adapter. i.e. If you don’t put an entry here for the IDoc type that you wish you will
get a metadata error in XI when it tries to read the IDoc metadata from the
system.
1. On the XI server use Transaction IDX2
2. Click new
3. Enter IDoc type ORDERS05 and applicable port SAPCRM as shown in
Figure 179
Figure 179: Enter IDoc Type and Port
4. Click Continue
5. The message should come back that the structure was loaded
successfully

Phase 5 – Testing © Genie Press 2007 Page 122 of 159
PHASE 5 : TESTING
5.1. Testing the interface in XI
Well done, if you’ve reached this point you are now ready to see if all your hard
work fits together properly. Read the sidebar on XMLSpy to make sure you have
all the right tools to test properly.
Third Party Testing Tools - XMLSpy
XMLSpy is a wonderful tool for examining, editing and generating SOAP
messages. At the end of the day the SOAP message is just a formatted XML file.
XMLSpy is a product from Altova ( www.altova.com ) and at the time of writing
the latest release is 2007, but we have used 4.4 for our testing in section 5.2.
The testing is possible without a tool like XMLSpy, but it is very time consuming
and open to errors.
5.1.1. Create a sample XML payload
1. Launch or go back to the Integration Repository
2. In step 2.7.1. IM_Order_to_ORDERS05 on page 33 we created the
interface map IM_Order_to_ORDERS05. Load up this map in the
integration repository as shown in Figure 29: Interface Mapping -

Glossary
ABAP
ABAP is a powerful programming language provided by SAP that can be used to
extend the functionality of SAP.
Abstract Interface
An abstract interface is an interface that can be used both inbound and
outbound.
Adapter Engine
The adapter engine is used to connect the integration engine to external systems
via various adapters.. Adapters are used to convert the messages into specific
protocols and formats for the external systems that they were designed for. For
example: the JDBC adapter is used to convert messages into database queries
and execute them against external database systems.
ALE
Application Link Enabling (ALE) is a middleware tool provided by SAP to link
SAP applications with both other SAP applications and non-SAP applications.
Alert
An Alert is a message that is sent when a pre-configured condition is reached
and typically used to monitor for exception conditions in computer systems and
business processes. Alerts can be delivered via e-mail, fax, or SMS. SAP has
extensive functionality for defining, monitoring, and routing Alerts.
Asynchronous Message
The message is "non-blocking". The sending application does not wait for a
response message from the receiving service and continues processing. A
response to the message will come in a separate "call-back" message if required.
See also synchronous.
BPM
Business process Management (BPM) commonly refers to the design and
processing of Integration Processes.
Business Service
A Business Service is used to represent a system that sends and receives
messages. Business Services are similar to Business Systems except that they
are not stored in the System Landscape Directory (SLD). You would typically
use Business Services to represent systems of your business partners because
there systems are not in your landscape.
Business System

Business systems are defined in the System Landscape Directory (SLD) and
represent the logical systems that are the senders and receivers of messages.
Communication Channel (CC)
A communication channel defines the adapter (protocol) that will be used to
communicate messages to a business system or service.
Correlation
A correlation is used to match XML messages that are participating in an
instance of an Integrating Process. In a correlation you define XML elements that
are used to join one or more XML messages. You must specify a correlation in a
receive step of an Integration process so that XI will know what inbound
message to match with the run-time instance of the Integration Process.
Data Types
A Data Type is an XML Schema Definition (XSD) and is used to define the
structure of a message type. A data type can be used to validate payloads of
messages.
IDOC
An IDOC is an electronic document that is in a SAP proprietary format for
exchanging data between systems. There are IDOC formats for exchanging
almost any business document, transaction, or master data object.
IDOC Meta Data
IDOC Meta Data is used to validate and process IDOCs. This Meta Data is
managed by transaction IDX2 and can be loaded from the external SAP system
via RFC.
Integration Builder
This is the central tool for the design and configuration of XI objects. The
integration builder is divided into two areas: Design and Configuration. These two
areas are referred to as: Design – Integration Repository and Configuration –
Integration Directory.
Integration Directory
The Integration Directory is where all XI configuration objects are stored. The
Integration builder is used to manipulate objects in the integration repository. The
Integration Server accesses the Integration Directory to determine how to
process messages based on these configuration objects.
Integration Engine
This is the central run-time component of the integration server. It is responsible
for receiving, processing, mapping, and sending of XML messages.
Integration Process

An integration process is where you define a cross system business workflow for
processing messages that span multiple business systems.
Integration Repository
The integration Repository is where all XI design objects are stored. The
Integration builder is used to manipulate objects in the integration repository.
Integration Scenario
An Integration Scenario is used to document the integration between business
systems. It can contain links to all of the objects that involved in the exchange of
messages between systems.
Integration Server
The Integration server is the central engine for processing messages in
Exchange Infrastructure. The Integration Server uses setting in the Integration
Directory to determine what business systems to send inbound messages to and
what mappings are required in the process.
Interface Determination
An Interface Determination is used to define which inbound interface and
interface mapping a message will be processed by. Interface Determination
entries are selected based on the sender, outbound interface, and receiver.
Interface Mapping
Interface Mappings are used to register a message mapping program to an
inbound and outbound interface in the integrating repository. XI uses the
Interface Mapping to select the message mapping programs associated with
request and response messages for the specified interfaces.
Message Interfaces
A Message Interface defines an interface between application systems that is
both programming language and platform independent. In a Message Interface
you define the message type and communication parameters of the interface.
Communication parameters define a message as inbound or outbound and
asynchronous or synchronous.
Message Mapping
A Message Mapping is used to transform one XML message into another.
Message mappings are defined by using the XI graphical mapping editor that is
accessed in the design side of the Integration Builder.
Message Types
A Message Type references the data type that it used to define the structure of a
message.
Namespace

**TEMP**.
Receiver Agreement
A receiver agreement is used to determine how to transform a message so that it
can be processed by a receiver. This occurs during outbound processing.
A receiver determination is used to define the services that a message will be
sent to. XI uses the sending service, party, and message type to select a receiver
determination entry.
RFC
RFC (Remote Function Call) is the name for the standard SAP interface for
communicating between SAP systems. RFC can be used to call a function
remotely on another SAP system or a non-SAP system that has implemented a
RFC interface using the SAP RFC SDK.
Runtime Workbench
The Runtime Workbench (RWB) is the central tool for monitoring the processing
and performance of messages and for the monitoring and testing the individual
components of Exchange Infrastructure.
Sender Agreement
A Sender Agreement is used to determine how to transform a message so that it
can be processed by the Integration Engine. This occurs during inbound
processing.
SLD
The System Landscape Directory is a server application that stores information
on the hardware and components in your SAP landscape. XI uses the SLD to
store information on business systems, technical systems, products and software
components.
SOAP
SOAP (Simple Object Access Protocol) is an XML-based protocol for accessing
Web services allowing disparate applications to exchange information over
networks using XML syntax. SOAP acts as an “envelope” to package the XML
messages sent between client applications and Web services. WSDL and SOAP
work together with WSDL providing detailed descriptions of a Web service and
SOAP providing the actual data transport between the Web service and the
requesting client application (usually over HTTP).
Software Catalog
The software catalog is part of the SLD and is used to store information on the
products and software components in the SAP landscape. This is where new

software components need to have been created before they can be used for
new development.
Software Component Version
Software component versions are the packages that are used in XI to organize
development objects in XI and are defined in the software catalog.
Synchronous Message
The message will block. The sending application will wait for a response from the
receiving service before continuing processing. See also asynchronous.
System Landscape Directory (SLD)
The System Landscape Directory is a server application that stores information
on the hardware and components in your SAP landscape. XI uses the SLD to
store information on business systems, technical systems, products and software
components.
WSDL
WSDL (Web Services Description Language) is an XML-based language used to
describe and locate Web services. It is the language used by UDDI (Universal
Description, Discovery, and Integration), which is an XML-based registry where
businesses list information about themselves and their available Web services.
WSDL works hand-in-hand with SOAP, where WSDL describes a Web service
and the functionality it provides, and SOAP is used by the client application to
actually call the functions listed in the WSDL description.
XML
The eXtensible Markup Language (XML) is a specification from the World Wide
Web Consortium (W3C) that defines a meta language for describing data. In
XML applications, data is described by surrounding it with customizable, text-
based tags that give information about the data itself as well as its hierarchical
structure.
XPATH
XPATH is a language for addressing parts of an XML document.
XSD
An XML Schema Definition (XSD) is an instance of an XML schema written in the
XML Schema language. An XSD defines a type of XML document in terms of
constraints upon what elements and attributes may appear, their relationship to
each other, what types of data may be in them, and other things. It can be used
with validation software in order to ascertain whether a particular XML document
is of that type, and to produce a Post-Schema Validation Infoset.
XSLT

XSLT (Extensible Style Language Transformation) style sheets transform an
XML document into either, another XML document, an HTML/XHTML Web page,
or a simple text file. The XSLT style sheet specifies how an XSLT processor
should create the desired output from an associated XML input document.
