As an add-on to my PI Blogs

Hands on SAP ME integration or how I learnt PI (XI)

PRE/POST XSLT step in integration scenario via PI

and based on the recent Blog from my colleague Konstantin on how to integrate custom fields for ME objects

http://scn.sap.com/community/manufacturing/blog/2016/01/04/how-to-integrate-additional-custom-fields...

 

I'd like to illustrate that XSL can be similarly modified in PI scenario as well in order to map Custom Fields to ME objects.

The MRP_CONTROLLER Material Custom Field was mapped by adding the following lines to the XSL and using the Operation Mapping as illustrated in previous Blogs:

<sch:CustomFieldList>

      <sch:CustomField>

           <sch:Attribute>MRP_CONTROLLER</sch:Attribute>

             <sch:Value>

                <xsl:value-of select="DISPO"/>

              </sch:Value>

      </sch:CustomField>

</sch:CustomFieldList>

Obviously, the same would be possible for other ME objects as well in the integration via PI. You just need to make sure the corresponding XSL is modified to have CustomField* tags to match the structure of the request accepted by SAP ME.

As always I appreciate your comments, ratings and Likes.

Best regards,
