PowerCenter Integration Service Processing

To process business content data, you start the listener workflow and the send request workflow for the first DataSource data you want to process.

When you start these workflows, the send request workflow, listener workflow, processing workflow, and SAP interact in the following order:

The send request workflow sends a request for DataSource data to SAP.

SAP sends the requested data to the listener workflow.

The listener workflow writes data to the staging area.

Configure a relational target connection to handle SAP DataSources with no data. For more information about configuring the relational target connection, see Step 4. Create a Relational Table.

When the listener workflow receives the complete DataSource data, BCI_Scheduling_Target in the listener mapping requests that the PowerCenter Integration Service start the appropriate processing workflow for the next DataSource.

The processing session processes the DataSource data from the staging area.

When the processing session finishes processing data, it initiates the cleanup session.

The cleanup session removes the processed data from the staging area.

When the processing workflow finishes, BCI_Scheduling_Target in the listener mapping requests that the PowerCenter Integration Service start the next send request workflow.

Repeat steps 1 through 8 until the last DataSource is processed.

The following figure shows how the send request and processing workflows interact with the listener workflow and SAP:
