What is the pipeline and what is a pipeline services?

Ans:Receiver Identification,Interface Identification,Message Branch,Reguest Message
Mapping,Outbound Binding,Call Adapter.

OR

Pipeline Steps:they are 6steps
1.Receiver Determination.
2.Interface Determination.
3.Msg Spilt:If more than one receivers are found XI will initiate new msg for each
receiver.
4.Message Mapping:Mapping program to transform source msg to destination msg.
5.Technical routing:Bind a Specific destination and protocal to the msg.
6.Call Adapter:Send the transformed msg to the adapter or proxy.

Why to create communication channel ?

Ans:The communication channel is the means using which XI gets and passes information. XI can understand only XML and so, the communication channels (or adapters) do the task of passing XML messages to and from XI. If the message is not in XML format, content conversion is performed at the Adapter.

Why to create Receiver Determination and Interface Determination ?

Ans:Receiver Determination In this stage, you tell XI, the recipient Interface of the scenario. you can also provide conditions on which the reciver is determined.
Interface Determination. The stage where the Inbound Interface and the Interface mapping program are defined. Conditional Interface determination is also possible.

****why to create sender and receiver agreement?

Ans:Whenever XI is the recipient of some information, create a sender agreement for the corresponding adapter, sender system and sender interface. Whenever XI is going to send some information to an external system as the external system is the recipeint of the information, create a receiver agreement for the same. for IDOC and HTTP adapters , no sender agreement is required.

What is the difference between the monitoring done on the RunTimeWorkBench ?

Ans:Runtime workbench is a place to monitor the senario .In Moni we can monitor the message processing in the interface and channel level.one done using SXMB_MONI.

what is cache and how many types of Caches are there in XI and what are their puposes?

Ans:Two Types

1.CPA cache(Collaboration profile agreement)
2.Runtime cache

CPA cache: - CPA cache - is your Collaboration profile agreement cache, ie to
mean it will contains the cache copy of all objects created during configuration
time (ID).CPA (Collaboration profile agreement )Cache-mainly for J2EE
engine/Adapter engine.

Runtime Cache:- Runtime cache - it will contain cache copies of all the
objects in XI (IR/ID) and active version of all your objects during runtime.

*****IDoc to File Scenario?****************

IDoc to File Scenario
1 General Requirement
1.1 Introduction
This document describes IDoc to file scenario in which an IDoc from an SAP system is converted into a Flat File and routed to the FTP Server via Exchange Infrastructure.
A business system representing Sender SAP system sends the IDoc to XI; XI converts the IDoc to Flat File and sends it to the receiving business system (FTP Server) by using an inbound File adapter.
1.2 Prerequisites:
One Business System representing the sending R/3 is required to be configured of type 3rd party in SLD (System Landscape Directory).
FTP configuration should be in place to transfer the output file to desired location.
2 Configurations at the Sender System (SAP R/3)
This section describes all the configurations needed in the Sender SAP System (R3X) for sending an IDoc to XIR.
2.1 Create RFC Destination
Use TCode SM59 to create RFC Destination in R3X to connect to XI (XIR) system.
RFC Destination in R3X: R3X_TO_XIR

2.2 Maintain Ports
Use TCode WE21 to create a tRFC Port. The RFC Destination created in the previous step should be assigned to this port.
Port in R3X: SAPXIR

2.3 Maintain Partner Profile
Create a Partner Profile for the Receiver System (XIRCLNT100) using the T-Code WE20, with the following outbound parameters.
Message type: MATMAS
IDoc Type: MATMAS05
Receiver port: SAPXIR

2.4 Create Distribution Model (BD64)
Create model view and add Message type with following
Sender System – R3XCLNT100
Receiver System – XIRCLNT100
Message type - MATMAS
Distribute the Model view.

3 Configurations in the Integration Server
This section gives an overview of all the configurations required in the Integration server. These settings are required for the XI system to receive the IDoc sent by the Sender SAP system.
3.1 Create RFC Destination
Use TCode SM59 to create an RFC Destination of Type 3 in order to establish communication with the Sender SAP system.
Sender RFC Destination in XIR: R3XCLNT100

3.2 Create Port
On the Integration Server, create a port for IDoc communication using transaction IDX1.
Ideally, the port name should be of the format SAPxxx, where xxx is the system id of the SAP system. The created port has to be bind with the RFC Destination of the Sender SAP system configured in the Step 3.1 above.
Sender Port in XIR: SAPR3X

3.3 Transaction IDX2
This configuration step is used to import the metadata of the IDoc using the corresponding Business system’s port as below.


4 Design the Scenario in the Integration Repository
4.1 Import IDocs
Import the IDoc from the Sender SAP system. Enter the details of the sender system as shown below.
In this scenario, MATMAS.MATMAS05 is the outbound message type.

Select the IDocs which are to be imported


Thus, the IDoc MATMAS.MATMAS05 (sender message type) is imported.
4.2 Define Data Type
Define a Data type resembling the structure of the inbound message (file structure), Data type resembling outbound structure is not required as Imported IDoc cab be used as Data type, Message type and Message Interface.

4.3 Define Message Type
Define a Message Type for the Data type created in Section 4.2.

4.4 Define Message Interface
Define Inbound Message Interface for the Message Type created in Section 4.3. as below.

4.5 Create Message Mapping
Create the Message Mapping with Source message as MATMAS.MATMAS05 (Imported from R3X), Target message as MT_IB_MATMAS (created in section 4.3)

4.6 Define Interface Mapping
Define Interface Mapping for the Mapping created in Section 4.5

5 Configure the Scenario in Integration Directory
Following objects should be configured in the Integration Directory:
5.1 Assign Business System
A Business System represents the Sender SAP System in the system landscape directory. Assign the Sender Business System defined in the System Landscape directory in the Integration Directory.

Choose Assign Business System.
Select the Business System corresponding to the Sender SAP System as defined in the System Landscape Directory and Click Finish (In this scenario R3X is the Sender System and hence is the Business System).

5.2 Create New Business Service
In this scenario the Receiver System is a FTP Server. A Business Service representing the Receiver system should be created. Choose New Business Service as shown in the screenshot below.

Add the Inbound Message Interface to the Business Service created.
Message interface: MI_IB_MATMAS

5.3 Create Receiver Communication Channel
Create a receiver communication channel (File Adapter) under the Receiver Business Service (File_service).

5.4 Create Receiver Determination
Receiver Determination defines the possible receivers for a sender and an outbound interface combination. In Conditional Receivers specify a conditional argument whose value will be used to route the inbound message to the respective Service. Based on the value of a certain field in the incoming IDoc the conditional argument is evaluated and thus the receiver is determined and message is routed accordingly at runtime.


5.5 Create Interface Determination
Provide the details Sender Service, inbound interface and the Receiver Service while creating the interface determinations.

5.6 Create Receiver Agreement
Receiver Agreement defines to which receiver the message, has to be routed.

6. Testing the Scenario
At the Sender system
Go to Transaction BD10, to send the Material from R3X to XIR. An outbound Generic IDoc MATAMS05 is created in R3X as shown in the below screenshot.

As per the configuration this IDoc will be converted to a flat file and routed to the corresponding Receiver (/XI_Practice/ folder of the Receiver FTP Server in this case).

At XI System:
A message is created in XI, which indicates the message from R3X has reached XI Integration Server.
Execute transaction SXI_MONITOR in the XI Integration Server as below.



The Processed Successfully Flag indicates that the outbound message (IDoc) has been successfully processed and it has reached the Receiver FTP system.

At Receiver System (FTP Server):
Log on to the FTP Server of the Host System, to verify the new file.

What is Mapping Templates ?

Ans:Mapping template define the structural relationship b/w source msg type and
target msg type.
Mapping template unlike the msg mappings,will not create mapping objects.
Any XI Project has the mapping relations define to the mapping templates.
Msg mapping implemention Creates the mapping object in the global container and
the relationships are excuted in the container,where as mapping templates
creates flat structural relationship.

How to send the msg from RWB to IServer?

Ans:Go to RWB there just Select Component monitoring .In component monitoring we can send
the text msg to the Integration Server irrespective of the XI Components.

***What is Dynamic Configuration ?

Ans:We can Receive a file a do someting with it inside XI and Send it back with the
Samename.No need for writing 'Adapter specific Msg Properties' which tell the
adapter to include those properties inside the SOAP msg Send to XI from the
Adapter.
The FTP Receiver adapter must also know that the has to Use those new
Properties.So we also have to set them on the Receivers side.
Because we also want to get the filename inside our mapping we have to create a
Userdefine function,Which will rewrite the filename & map it to one of our xml
tags.
when we run our file to file scenario,we can now see that ther's a new section
called "Dynamic Configuration".

what are application adapter,technical adapter and Industry Adapter?

Ans: Application Adapters:-IDOC,RFC(By SAP)
:- SeeBurger,Siebel,Oracle(Third Party).

Technical Adapters:-FILE,JDBC,SOAP,SMTP(Mail Server),JMS(Message),Sap business
Connector,Market Place.

Industry Standard Adapters:-RNIF(RosettaNet Implementation Framework),CIDX
(Chemical Industray Data Xchange).

when do u go for BPM ?

-->If the two Interfaces Sender & Receiver of complimentary modes(when more than msg).
-->When the msg will be casted to multiple receivers at the same time.
-->when the msgs is casted to the multiple receivers one after another sequentially.
