Use

In this Customizing activity, you can specify an XSL transformation for incoming messages, if the format of the XML messages does not correspond to that of the XML IDoc.

This means various XML formats can be provided that can be converted into the correct XML format (the XML IDoc) before being entered in table EDX: Inbound Messages (Messages Ready for Processing) (EDX_PARK) and further processing in the connector.

The message format (purchase order, purchase order change, order confirmation, shipping notification, invoice) must be XML for this. The transformation is based on XSLT in version 1.0.

Requirements

  1. You have created a customer-specific transformation in the customer namespace (Y or Z namespace), and this is entered in the repository.
  2. The transformation is configured as appropriate.

Standard settings

Activities

  1. Select the corresponding transformation in the table.
  2. You can change the entries in the following fields:
    • ID of Service Provider: Description of the service provider:
    • ID of Sender: Description of the original sender of the message (partner ID).
    • Message Description: Description within the DocumentSet message for the incoming message from the service provider.   
      • Example:
      The service provider determines the message description Invoice, and is specified as a type for the document internally.
    • Document Format: Source format for the structured XML message.
      • This is the description of the document format within the DocumentSet message before the transformation takes place.
    • Transformation: Customer-specific description of the XSL transformation.
      • Enter the description of the XSL transformation here that you have already created (see 'Prerequisites').
