Env- Linux
Ver- 9.0.0.2

An external application sends a message to a queue .
This message contains a SAP Idoc as a text string (EDI_DC40...userdefined segments etc).

Requirement is to read this message(IDoc) and map required fields to a XML structure.

We have downloaded the IDoc definations( *.xsd) from SAP using EIS Adapter Connector.

Question:
How should we populate the SAP Idoc from the MQ Message(containng Idoc), as it does not belong to required Dataobject domain?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

what you seem to have is a raw IDOC. It may be in "IDOC" format or in "FILE" format (truncating the trailing spaces and with a NL at the end of each EDI_DD40).

To transform into the DataObject format you may well need to have the SAP adapter defined to your flow...

Have fun

Hi fjb_saper,

Thanks for the reply.

IDOC looks like this
EDI_DC40 0100000000535621404701 3014 DELFOR02 /ABC/STD_DELFOR02 /ABC/STD_DELINS SAPABC LS PABC010 ACTIS01 LILF0010253310 20130112031509 20130112031509 E2EDK09003 0100000000535621404000001000000010006403985

I don't think the spaces are truncated.

This Interface is not directly connected to SAP so we cannot use the SAP connector.

We are receiving the Idoc as MQ Message and now we have to somehow populate the IDoc structure from this raw idoc (string) and map the fields to other xml structure.
Is there any way to do this in WMB?
We are receiving many idocs types and creating a DFDL Structure for Idocs with many segments will be time consuming.

If you read the message as a BLOB, you *might* be able to use CREATE ... PARSE to build a DataObject message.
