SAP Exchange Infrastructure (XI) 3.0 / Process Integration (PI) 7.0

Summary

This document explains step-by-step working procedures for the processing PDX and AXML files

generated by AGILE using XI, Including Integration Repository (IR), Integration Directory (ID),

and other adapter-specific settings for sender side and receiver side.

System Requirements:

• Developer Access to XI System is required to create this scenario.

• XML spy software to create XSD file.

Maintain XI System for Integration (Receive PDX/AXML File -Transform- Send File)

Step 1: Maintain IR (Integration Repository)

1. Import S/W Component.

• Open Integration Repository.

• Import your software components information which has been created in SLD to

IR.



2. Creating Data types

• As PDX and AXML files are the zip files, we will not be directly available with

the XML file that can be imported for creating Data types.

• Manually open PDX files with the WinZip software, extract the XML file. The

XML file is to be changed to XSD using XML SPY software.

• Create an external definition and change the category to XSD and import the

XSD file.



3. Creating the Message interfaces.

• Import the external definition and create the message interface.

• Create two message interfaces, one is for Outbound and one is for Inbound

with the same external definition.

4. Creating message mappings

• Take the same external definitions for the both side (i.e) sender and receiver.

Map one to one graphical mapping.



5. Creating interface Mapping

• Create interface mapping by importing out bound and inbound interfaces.



Step 3: Maintain ID (Integration directory)

6. Create a business service in and two communication channels of FILE adapter type

• One for sender and one for receiver.



7. Modules specification in the sender communication channel.

• Use the module that I have specified in the screen shot and use the same

parameters.

• Processing sequence:

Module name: AF_Modules/PayloadZipBean

Type: Local Enterprise Bean

Module key: 3

• Module configuration:

Module key: 3

Parameter name: zip.mode

Parameter value: unzip.



8. For receiver communication channel we don’t require to give any module

specification (if the o/p is XML file ) else in give parameter value as :zip



9. For remaining configuration steps are same as ordinary file to file scenario.



Step 3: RESULTS

Input:

Give below pdx file as input

agile_20080305_092133273.pdx

Extracted XML file.



pdx.xml

Output:

it can be either zip(pdx/axml) or XML file , it all depends on the usage module in the receiver

CC.

1)for zip(pdx/axml) use this receiver communication channel with modules.

2) For XML file use this receiver communication channel with out modules:
