Uploading Extended Fields of Customer Invoice Request

[Former Member]

Hello,

We do have a service integration which SAP already provided for Customer Invoice Request.

We have to extend the CustomerInvoiceRequestBO based on the business requirements and then those extended fields are needed to be uploaded along with the standard ones.

I have tried the uploading data by filling in the standard XML(Template downloaded through this business center) and all the standard data fields got uploaded successfully.

Now, my question is what are the possible ways to upload Invoice Data along with the Extended Fields ?

- Can we extend the service integration(provided by SAP) to create a proper mapping for the extended fields?

- Do we need to create a new service integration for CustomerInvoiceRequestBO(thourgh PDI)? *the technical field for DocumentID says tat it is read-only and not allowin to Tick while creating new service intergration :(*

I have already reviewed the pdf doc available in My Workspace --> Downloads --> FileInput Examples --> How-to-Guide Invoice Request FileInput but had no luck

regards,

Hi Vatsav,

My understadning as per your thread:

: You want to extend the CustomerInvoiceRequestBO(CIR) and iuse the XML file input mapped mechanism, mapping the schema in MS XL to uplaod CIR''s to ByDesign.

Steps to do:

1) I would create an XBO with the requried extensions (small range of possible data types to create extension elements)

2) Once you save and activate the XBO, create a new XML file Input asset , a <dot>pid file. Here you select in the wizard the CIR BO in the nsmae space AP.CustomerInvoicing.Global.

3) You should be able to see your extionsione lements here.

4) Then follw the steps inthe Scalable Addon documentation.

Hope this helps.
