Message details as viewed in transaction code SXMB_MONI:

For mapping purpose the IDoc xsd needs to be modified to change the occurrence of the IDoc node. This feature is only applicable in cases wherein the IDocs have been sent in packages from the sender system. IDoc packages received from the sender system are not split into individual IDocs given that the package size in sender system partner profile and in sender IDoc channel are the same. If the package size in the sender system partner profile is greater than that specified in the sender IDoc adapter then the incoming package is split accordingly and the remaining IDocs are processed as part of another message in PI. If the package size in the sender system partner profile is less than that specified in the sender IDoc adapter then the incoming packages are processed individually and there is no clubbing of packages in PI.

This feature does not enable collection of IDocs, ie - IDocs received individually are processed separately.

All IDocs in the package are part of one single PI message, rather than looking at it as separate IDoc in case of error it needs to be dealt with as is done for a PI message.

Hello, Since on PI side the package is calculated again using Communication Channel parameter, it should be better to set higher value on partner profile (e.g. 500).

Do you agree?

Kind Regards, Niki Sender Package Size 2009-11-19 03:56:48 Pravesh Puria Hi, Yes one can set the package size in the partner profile to a higher count. Business Card [Reply]
