Using Idocs in NWBPM

SAP has provided the below link which explains about “how to import idocs in NWBPM”.

As explained in the above link, I have followed the ssame steps, but when I tried to import the idoc in NWBPM, I have got the below error.

“An internal error occurred during: “Importing MOIN models for XSDs and WSDLs…”

Java.lang.OutOfMemoryError: Java heap space

First I thought this error is something related to NWDS issue and later analysed it is related to the idoc service interface.

Then after few trail and errors finally I have imported the IDoc service interface in NWBPM. I would like to share how we can import the idocs service interface in NWBPM in this blog.

First we need to follow the steps mentioned in the below link.

For Idocs, some of the fields/segments will have the occurence as “999999999”.

The tricky thing is to replace “999999999” with “unbounded”

and use this updated XSD in the service interface which will be used in NWBPM.

After importing this service interface in BPM, you can see the idoc namespace under “Data Types”.

For information, SAP fixed this issue in the below releases/patch levels.
