After attending SAP Insider Tracks in Berlin, Munich, Copenhagen and Paris, it’s a time for our session at SIT Walldorf. The meeting will take place on Saturday 13th of January. This time we would like focus more on SAP AIF testing and show how business users could benefit from Int4 IFTT. This is a short description of our session:
Almost all integration scenarios require some sort of mapping to be performed. SAP AIF offers a flexible tool called Structure Mapping to handle that. It’s based on general concept of traversing the source structure from the root and drilling down to substructures and their fields. However it has certain limitations. One is that if in the source message at certain same level we have multiple structures, we can’t indicate in what order SAP AIF should process them. To be more specific, they are always mapped in alphabetical sequence.
Among SAP integration specialist and clients there is quite often a confusion about usage of tools mentioned in the topic of this article. The main reason for their confusion is the fact, that they don’t know which tool should they use and what is more important how SAP PO and SAP AIF can be combined in order to make your integration scenario more robust. Let’s start from the beginning and let me briefly introduce to you each tool.
If for any reason, the thought of reaching out to us has crossed your mind, then by all means do not hesitate to get in touch with us, as we are more than happy to put to rest all of your concerns.
