Create IDOC from XML file

Hi,
I want to create Scheduling Agreement from idoc using XML file means i am receiving XML file and i want to convert this XML file into IDOC and finally process this IDOC to craete scheduling agreement.
But i don't have any idea for this.pl. tell me what should i do for this.
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi,
You are receiving XML file and you want that to converted into the IDOC and inturn to be processed in your system, for this you need to create an XML port and you need to read the file from that port then an IDOC will be created. Create an XML file port in WE21 transaction and then goto WE16 transaction and you can use that transaction to upload a file as an IDOC into the SAP system.
Once the IDOC is created rest of the activity is same.
Thanks,
Mahesh.

How to create Inbound Idoc from XML file-Need help urgently

Hi,
can any one tell how to create inbound Idoc from XML file.
we have xml file in application server Ex. /usr/INT/SMS/PAYTEXT.xml' we want to generate inbound idoc from this file.we are successfully able to generate outbound XML file from outbound Idoc by using the XML port. But not able to generate idoc from XML file by using we19 or we16.
Please let me know the process to trigger inbound Idoc with out using XI and any other components.
Thanks in advance
Dora Reddy

Hi .. Did either of you get a result on this?
My question is the same really .. I am testing with WE19 and it seems SAP cannot accept an XML inbound file as standard.
I see lots of mention of using a Function Module.
Am I correct in saying therefore that ABAP development is required to create a program to run the FM and process the idoc?
Or is there something tht can be done with Standard SAP?
Thanks

Creating array from XML file

Currently my application uses the following arrays to populate a map with data depending on the user's selection.
<fx:Declarations>
<fx:Array id="fwo1">
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="borders" color="#FFFFFF" mouseEnabled="false"/>
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="SE" title="SWEDEN" value="4447100" customData="{dpSE}"/>
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="CH" title="SWITZERLAND" value="47100" customData="{dpCH}"/>
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="FR" title="FRANCE" value="447100" customData="{dpFR}"/>
</fx:Array>
<fx:Array id="fwo2">
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="borders" color="#FFFFFF" mouseEnabled="false"/>
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="SE" title="SWEDEN" value="2000" customData="{dpSE}"/>
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="CH" title="SWITZERLAND" value="200" customData="{dpCH}"/>
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="FR" title="FRANCE" value="20" customData="{dpFR}"/>
</fx:Array>
</fx:Declarations>
I would like to spin the country data off into one or more external XML files so that rather than being hard coded, the arrays would load the data dynamically.
<fx:Array id="fwo1">
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="borders" color="#FFFFFF" mouseEnabled="false"/>
[[include/loop through data from XML file to create rest of array]]
</fx:Array>
<fx:Array id="fwo2">
<ammap:MapArea instanceName="borders" color="#FFFFFF" mouseEnabled="false"/>
[[include/loop through data from XML file here to create rest of array ]]
</fx:Array>
After much searching, I just haven't quite found an example that will let me make the leap from hard coding to dynamically loading the data (in large part, because of the name space declaration as part of the array element).
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks so much.

Create IDoc from flat file - How to do the message mapping

Hi everybody,
I want to create an IDoc from a flat file.
The file structure looks like this:
MT_XYZ
- Node001       0...1
- Leaf001
- Node002       0...unbounded
   - Node003    0...1
      - Leaf002
      - Leaf003
   - Node004    0...1
      - Leaf004
   - Node005    0...1
      - Leaf005
I have created a mapping and all the other stuff to set up the IDoc adapter.
Now when I try to test the interface the IDoc is created properly but obviously no information from the nodes "Node003" to "Node005" is inserted in the IDoc. Only the information kept in the elements (leafs) of "Node001" are inserted.
All IDoc segments and their "Segment" elements are linked to the root node of the file structure "MT_XYZ". I tried to link some IDoc segments only to "Node002" but then this segment is not created.
So how can I set up the message mapping in a way that the information from "Node003" to "Node005" is transported to the IDoc? Can anyone help me here?
Thanks in advance for all answers!
Regards,
Torben

Hi Torben,
>>I want to create an IDoc from a flat file.
So you are using File content Conversion on the sender side. Right?
>>no information from the nodes "Node003" to "Node005" is inserted in the IDoc.
Are these information available in the source XML (you can check in transaction SXMB_MONI-> Input Payload).. There is a limitation in File Content Conversion of File adapter and it is that I can make an XML structure of 3 level.. Since these nodes details are in level 4 and 5 they should be missing in Source XML structure itself (after content conversion of File adapter). check that
>>So how can I set up the message mapping in a way that the information from "Node003" to "Node005" is transported to the IDoc? Can anyone help me here?
So you need to take an alternate approach where you do File Content Conversion and make 3 level structure.. then using a mapping convert this three level structure to your 5 level one and then try to map with the idoc.

Create IDOCs from DMEE Files

Hi SDN,
Can I create Custom IDOCs from the DMEE file format.
The file is getting downloaded after the DMEE Run in a specific format individual to every company code.
I want to generate IDOCs for every DMEE Run.
Thanks,
Manu

Take a look at this :
http://www.sappoint.com/ppt/idoc.ppt
you need to create File port in Tr.WE21 , as file port
Then you have to sechdule the program RSEout00 to collect Idocs .
You can test it in Tr.WE19 , you can also use the Tr.BD87 to see your Idoc status
Hope thisll give you idea!!
<b>P.S award the points.</b>
Good luck
Thanks

Hi,
your problem is just like filling the segements using the data in other segements. that means if you have knowledge of enhancing the idoc and populating the enhanced segments then in the same way you can populate the BATCH segment also.
you just go to the function module which will be creating the idoc(if its outbound) / function module which will be posting the idoc which is for inblund and then find the perform where it fills the segments ( it will be the one which you will use to fill the segment BATCH )and go that and at last of form you will find one customer function which you can use to fill the BATCH segment.
i think this will help u,

Help with creating a new XML file from an existing DOM tree!!

i want to create a new XML file from an existing DOM tree
i used this code to create a new document:
static public Document createDocument(String fileName) throws ParserConfigurationException//,IOException,SAXException
          try {
               DocumentBuilderFactory factory = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
               factory.setIgnoringComments(true);
               factory.setIgnoringElementContentWhitespace(true);
               factory.setValidating(true);
               DocumentBuilder builder =factory.newDocumentBuilder();
               return builder.newDocument();
//          handle exception creating DocumentBuilder
          catch ( ParserConfigurationException parserError ) {
                    throw new ParserConfigurationException();
          }then i used this code to transform the DOM :
public void exportDocument(Document document) {
          try {
               Source xmlSource = new DOMSource( document );
               Result result = new StreamResult( System.out );
               TransformerFactory transformerFactory =
                    TransformerFactory.newInstance();
               Transformer transformer =transformerFactory.newTransformer();
               transformer.setOutputProperty( "indent", "yes" );
               transformer.transform( xmlSource, result );
       //then catching the exceptions
But the file was not created and i didn't find where can i specify the DTD that the XML file should use and where can i enter the name of the XML file itself
Another questoin can i write a DTD file dynamically during the execution of the program??

Create IDOC from file

I have received an IDOC order file, and I know there is a standard program RSEINB00 to create IDOC in system.
I would like to delete/add segments, change field contents in segements in the IDOC according to some of the segments in IDOC. Where can I manuplate it?
Thanks for your advice.

I am not test an IDOC file. I regularly receive IDOC file and need to manuplate the content, e.g. delete some of the segments, determine and fill in field content in some segments.
I just wonder if I can change the IDOC content after it is created in system, just like what I can do in WE19, but using a program. Is there any standard program for this purpose?
Or is there any user exit I can use when creating IDOC from file?
Thanks.

Three options come to my mind.
Option 1: Use SAP transaction SXDA_TOOLS (Object Type BUS2032), Program Type (BAPI) and Program (CREATEFROMDAT2).
Option 2: Use SAP transaction SXDA_TOOLS (Object Type BUS2032), Program Type (DINP) and Program (RVINVB10).
Option 3: Translate the xml to IDoc so that ORDER04 / ORDER05 Idoc can be used to create Sales order (WEDI transaction).

How to set SAXParser at command-line interface to create a large XML file

Hi,
I am trying to create a large XML file (more than 50 MB) by selecting from Oracle database but failed because of "out of memory" error. According to "Oracle XML Developer Guide", we should use SAXParser to parsing a large XML file. But there is no example to show how to set SAXParser at command-line
Following is what I use to get xml files. It works only when the file is small.
java OracleXML getXML -DateFormat -withDTD -rowsetTag PO_HDR -conn
"jdbc:oracle:oci8:@server_name" -user "ID/password" "select * from table_name"
When I set SAXParser at the way below,
java oracle.xml.parser.v2.SAXParser OracleXML getXML -DateFormat -withDTD -rowsetTag PO_HDR -conn
"jdbc:oracle:oci8:@server_name" -user "ID/password" "select * from table_name"
it failed with the error message: "In class oracle.xml.parser.v2.SAXParser: void main(String argv[]) is not defined"
Does anyone know how to solve the problem? I'll be appreciated very much for your help.
Yi

here are my ideas.
register the xml schema.
using xmldom, generate the desired xml output and return as xmltype.
then you can use something like this to check.
declare
xmldoc xmltype ;
begin
   -- populate xmldoc from you xmldom function
   -- validate against XML schema
   xmldoc.isSchemaValid(schema_url, root_element);
   if xmldoc.isSchemaValid = 1 then
        --valid schema
   else
        --invalid
   end if;
end

How to remove Unicode from XML file

I get following error when unmarshal xml:
[java] org.xml.sax.SAXParseException: An invalid XML character (Unicode: 0x15) was found in the element content of the document.
Anyone know how to remove Unicode from xml file? Can I remove the unicode by rebuild the file?
Thanks

These sort of error usually occur when you're using a different character encoding to read the file than the one you wrote it with. Perhaps if you were to post the problem section of the file and/or the code that created it in the first place.

Embedding data from xml file into metadata of a pdf

Hi All
I'm wanting to do the following, but struggling to figure the right way to go about it.
I want to embedded data from my MIS into a pdf's metadata (as scrnshot). I can create a standalone xml file with all the data I require, but I'm unsure how to automate that being embedded into a pdf's advanced metadata. I know this can be done, as it worked at a previous employer, but I didn't get chance to find out how they did it.
I'm wanting to do this so I can carry out a more advanced search of the metadata in Bridge.
Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi Northern,
    I have modified the modifyingXMP sample for you. After this change, put your xmp file as sample.xml and also put pdf file in the same folder where ModifyXMP executable is. After merging my changes, ModifyXMP file will read the sample.xml and will embed it into pdf file.
   Please follow the following steps
1. Download XMPToolkit SDK and follow the steps to compile Sample
2. Open ModifyingXMP file, replace all the content of that file with the below content
3. Compile the ModifyingXMP file.
4. The ModifyXMP.exe will be generated in folder (samples\target\windows\Debug), if you have changed the output folder it will be generated there.
5. In parallel to ModifyingXMP.exe put the sample.xml (the xml file you have) and also the pdf file (say pdf file name is mypdf.pdf)
6. Go to console and change directory to the directory where ModifyingXMP is and pass the following command
ModifyingXMP mypdf.pdf
7. Open the pdf file and check that value/properties
For your reference, I am putting the content of the sample.xml file too, put this content in sample.xmp and any pdf and you will find subject field is getting added.
************** content of the sample.xml file. Create a file name sample.xml and put that content. Put sample.xml in parallel to ModifyingXMP.exe*******
