Hi,

I have configured a SAP input node to receive a IDOC type. I used to get all the fields properly from the IDOC to the queue.

But recently due to business need, the SAP team had to add 3 more fields in one segment. Now the issue is these 3 fileds are not appearing in the input IDOC which resides in a queue in Broker. The IDOC in SAP when viewed has all these fields. Rest of the fields from this segment are coming correctly.

Only the newly added 3 fields are missing.

Well let me add a few more details.

I have re-run the adpater and can see these fields in the message set created and I have redeployed the flow too.

Please let me know if anybody else has faced this issue.

What nodes sit between your SAP node and the queue?

If you configure the flow to read the IDOC as a BLOB instead of parsing it, and write that to a queue, are the fields there?

Hello,

My flow

SAP Input Node -> MQOutput(QUEUE)

Above is my flow. I am not doing any computing to the input message.

The IDOC seen in SAP
-A have chile B and C. A, B, C are segements. A, B has its own fields.
-C having D, E and F. D, E, F are fields.

A,B,C was coming properly. SAP team added D and E fields last week which is seen in the input message in the queue. Well F was added yesterday by SAP team to the segment C which is appearing in the message set created by the adapter wizard in the broker but when SAP triggers IDOC and the message lies in the our queue from the SAP input node, the message does not contain the field F.

Well, all the segments and its fields are coming properly. Not sure why the new field is giving a problem. This can be a issue on SAP end too. I have never faced such a problem before. Please help.

If you are parsing the IDOC instead of doing a passthrough as mqjeff suggested, you need to go back to the design phase and adjust your message set every time the SAP team changes the structure of the IDOC.

Have fun

The only reason I suggested not parsing it was to attempt to confirm if SAP was actually *sending* the fields.

Absolutely, cos SAP has an annoying habit of caching stuff so you don't always get what you expect.

This issue was at the SAP end. The rectified their code and the fields started appearing our message present in the queue. This is the first time I came across this scenario.

Thanks everyone for their inputs.
