Before we start, recommended read - Fault Message Type from SAP Help document.
In this blog we will see how to configure a fault message for an asynchronous scenario and how it can be used in monitoring of the
message flow.
Note : An Extract from the online help says "The fault message of the application for an asynchronous ABAP server proxy is persisted for
monitoring. In the case asynchronous of Java server proxies, the fault message is part of a negative application acknowledgement."
Lets take the scenario of a File -> XI -> ABAP Proxy. The scenario is so designed that the file will contain a SAP user name and this will be
passed to the ABAP proxy via XI. Inside the ABAP proxy, we do two types of checks and trigger the fault message.
The Development:
DT_UserName
1. MT_UserNameFromFile
2. MT_UserName

Make the message mapping between MT_UserNameFromFile & MT_UserName and also the corresponding Interface mapping.
In your R3, generate the proxy for the inbound interface, MI_UserNameAndException.
The screenshot below shows that the fault message type that was used in the inbound interface is reflected in the exceptions tab under
Methods in your Class generated for the inbound proxy.

In our proxy we will be sending the user to a custom 'Z' table after a check in the USR01 table. Else we need to handle two exceptions as
mentioned earlier ie;
1. If there is no entry for the user (blank user) in the incoming file.
2. If the user specified in the file does not exist in the USR01 table.

Testing:
Now let us test the scenario and see how the system reacts.
Ok ... now here pops up the icon for "Application Error (Restart Possible)".
And if you open the MainDocument for the payload you will find the descriptive error caught by the exception.

Everything happens as described above. Only thing that changes is the MainDocument message content.
So that would have given you a grasp on fault message types and its usage. You could now explore more and put them to your use.
In the next part let us use the fault messages in Synchronous scenarios and see how they behave.

I tried the scenario as it is in this article but the message always shows a checkered flag insted of the light bolt. Is there some thing
else we need to do to get this ?
thanks,
Vj
The light bolt icon doesnt appear

Shabarish,
I was looking in the XI system Moni and now I figure I have to look in the Moni of the R/3 receiving system. I think that solves
my problem.
Thanks,
Vj

I did raise the exception. Here is the code I put in the server proxy:

Hello Shabarish,
Very well written blog. You mentioned in your blog about handling fault messages in synchronous interfaces. Please take a look at the
following blog https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/2759.
Cheers,
Naveen
Nice Blog!!

Well, actually i did see your blog before but my personal thought was tht it was more on a high level thought. I was thinking of
putting up one with specific details on the sync scenario!!!
What do u think ?
