FIX: Messaging properties are not tracked for some messages in an interchange in Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006 R2 or BizTalk Server 2009


View products that this article applies to.

Symptoms

Consider the following scenario in Microsoft BizTalk Server 2006 R2 or BizTalk Server 2009:
  • You configure a receive location by using the XMLReceive pipeline.
  • You create and then deploy a Business Activity Monitoring (BAM) activity.
  • In Tracking Profile Editor (TPE), you create a tracking profile that is based on the BAM activity definition. You select some properties from the Messaging Property Schema to map the data item folders of the activity, and then you apply this tracking profile.
In this scenario, when a batch of messages passes through the XMLReceive pipeline, you find that the messaging properties are not tracked for some messages in the batch. Specifically, if there is a map for the XMLReceive pipeline, the messaging properties for the last message is not tracked. Additionally, if there is no map for the XMLReceive pipeline, the messaging properties for the last two messages are not tracked.

For example, you receive the following message from the adapter:

<Env>
<Doc><Ele>1</Ele></Doc>
<Doc><Ele>2</Ele></Doc>
<Doc><Ele>3</Ele></Doc>
<Doc><Ele>4</Ele></Doc>
</Env>
If there is a map defined for the XMLReceive pipeline, after this message passes through the XMLReceive pipeline, the map is applied to produce the following message:
<MyMessage><OrderID>1</OrderID></MyMessage>
<MyMessage><OrderID>2</OrderID></MyMessage>
<MyMessage><OrderID>3</OrderID></MyMessage>
<MyMessage><OrderID>4</OrderID></MyMessage>

In this example, the PortEndTime messaging property is not tracked for the fourth message. Additionally, the BAM table in the BAMPrimaryImport database contains the following four entries:

OrderIDPortEndTime
1End time that corresponds to the first message
2End time that corresponds to the second message
3End time that corresponds to the third message
4NULL

Note The <OrderID> element is from the <MyMessage> schema, and the PortEndTime is from the Messaging Properties Schema. These values are defined in the tracking profile.

If there is no map for the XMLReceive pipeline, the PortEndTime messaging property is not tracked for the third and fourth message. Therefore, the BAM table in BAMPrimaryImport database resembles the following:

ElePortEndTime
1End time that corresponds to the first message
2End time that corresponds to the second message
3NULL
4NULL
Note If there is no map for the XMLReceive pipeline, the message is tracked directly from the XMLReceive pipeline.
