Need of FCC on sender side

Hey guys
i have a very basic question.wats the need of FCC on sender side?suppose i have a flat source structure,do i always need to convert this into XML before i can send it to IS or XI will do that by itself?
thanx
ahmad

Ahmad,
The only adapter that does implicit coversion is JDBC! Also if you look into Sender JDBC adapter , the JDBC adapter will conveert data into a standard formart and your Source Datatyype needs to confirm to this format. You cannot customize / change the format of the source datatype for JDBC adapter.
You need to perform conent conversion using JMS and Mail Adapters if your source data is not XML . For this you use the MessageTransformBean to convert Non XML to XML.
More on this in this article,
<a href="https://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.comhttp://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50061bd9-e56e-2910-3495-c5faa652b710">How to Use the Content Conversion Module with the XI 3.0 J2EE JMS Adapter</a>
the Title suggest that you can use it with JMS but it can also be used with Mail Adapters.

Error While Doing FCC on Sender Side

Hi All,
Iam reffering this Blog and doing File to File (FCC at Sender Side)
Content Conversion ( The Key Field Problem )
I have the Same Structure for both Source & Target. this is my structure
http://img386.imageshack.us/my.php?image=sourcestructym4.jpg
& i used the Following FCC Parameters at Sender Side
http://img123.imageshack.us/my.php?image=fccparawy7.jpg
Header.fieldSeparator ,
Header.fieldNames --- keyfield,Name,Designation,City
Header.keyFieldValue --- 01
Body.fieldSeparator ,
Body.fieldNames -

I placed the txt File in AL11 of XI Server and file not picked up and i have got the Error in Sender CC monitor in RWB
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Mandatory parameter 'Header.keyFieldValue': no value found Mandatory parameter 'Header.fieldNames': no value found

Hi,
I think all your configuariotn looks right.
Regarding your .txt file:
Check that there is no blank lines before your first record.
Also, that your records begin in the first column,
and also that there is 'nl' between your records.
Try to add 'field.endSeparator ' in every record.
According to help. sap:
If you only specify a value for NameA.fieldSeparator, the system expects a string containing the
names of the file columns in the same format as the file rows. This means that the same separator and
any additional strings you specify for NameA.endSeparator and/or NameA.beginSeparator are expected.

FCC on sender side

Hey guys
i have a requirement wherein i will be getting a CSV file of the form
<Reg>3
<Name>mark</Name>
<Age>25</Age>
</Reg>
<Reg>4
<Name>Adam</Name>
<Age>27</Age>
</Reg>
i have convert this file to XML and send over HTTP,
is this possible using FCC,coz i know sender FCC permits only one level of substructure and here my structure is kinda strange.
any help would be appreciated
thanx
ahmad

With source as ,
mark~25
Adam~27
Jimmy~30
XML needed as,
<Employee>
<data>
<Name>Mark</Name>
</Age>25</Age>
</data>
<data>
<Name>Adam</Name>
<Age>27</Age>
</data>
</Employee>
Use this content conversion.
Document Name : Employee
Document Namespace : namespacevalue
Recordset Strucutre : data,*
data.fieldNames : Name,Age
data.fieldSeparartor: ~
data.endSeparator : 'nl'
ignoreRecordsetName : true

How to handle preceding space characters in file to file(FCC on both sides)

Hi All,
We have scenario with file to file (FCC on both sides).
Issue is: Sender side we are converting source file (CSV) into XML. But while converting it is ignoring preceding spaces.
Example:
Suppose Source file(CSV) contains one record as mentioned below ( for ur understanding purpose I mentioned 'X' instead of space. )
XXXXXXXXXX12345 78945 23548 23446
The above record is getting converted into XML as
<text>12345 78945 23548 23446</text>
But we need the record to be converted into XML as mentioned below
<text>XXXXXXXXXX12345 78945 23548 23446</text>
i.e we need spaces before "12345" also.
As both sender and receiver having same structure, we are not using any mapping also.
Please suggest in this regard.
Thanks & Regards,
Nagaraju

Hi,
In your sender content conversion use the parameter:
NameA.fieldContentFormatting nothing

File content conversion at sender side

Hi,
I need to convert a flat file to xml at sender side using FCC.
Input text file:
Sunil,Chandra,Mumbai,400709
Sachin,Tendulkar,Delhi,110066
XML Structure Occurrence
>Employees 1..1
> > Employee 0..N
 > > > Fname 1..1
 > > > Lname 1..1
 >> > Address 1..1
 > > > >City 1..1
 >> > > Zip 1..1
xml should be like this:
><Employees>
>><Employee>
>>><Fname>Sunil</Fname>
>>><Lname>Chandra<Lname>
>>><Address>
>>>><City>Mumbai</City>
>>>><Pin>400709</Pin>
>>></Address>
>></Employee>
>><Employee>
>>><Fname>Sachin</Fname>
>>><Lname>Tendulkar<Lname>
>>><Address>
>>>><City>Delhi</City>
>>>><Pin>110066</Pin>
>>></Address>
>></Employee>
></Employees>

FCC does not support this level nesting...Ref
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
But requirement can be achieved using extra mapping
you can create a source structure that looks like
MT_Source_New..
>Record ...unbounded
>line ....1
and read the input file line by line...this can be achieved by simple FCC...Refer above link
here you need extra mapping to map it to your required source structure Employees
MT_new ---Mapping1 --- Employees
Then map Employees to Actual target structure

FCC in Sender Adapter

Hi Experts,
My Input file contains following structure:
101
102
103
104
Now I want to generate following source XML file using FCC in sender file adapter
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ns:MT_Employee xmlns:ns="http://Test_Employee">
<Employee>
<EmpID>101</EmpID>
<EmpID>102</EmpID>
<EmpID>103</EmpID>
<EmpID>104</EmpID>
</Employee>
</ns:MT_Employee>
Pls let me know what will be values for following parameters:
Document Name: <This would be MT_Employee probably>
Document NS: <This would be http://Test_Employee probably>
Document Offset : <Blank because we need values from first row onwards>
RecordSet Name:
RecordSet NS:
RecordSet Structure:
RecordSet Sequence:
Recordsets per Msg:
Key Field Name:
KetField Type:
Parameters:
Pls let me know all the parameters required to attain above XML
Thanks,
Rakesh

Hi Gopal,
I have provided the parameters said by u, but it did'nt work. We have to either provide 'Employee.fieldFixedLengths' or 'Employee.fieldSeparator' . Because one of these is mandatory for FCC. After providing ur parameters, I got below error:
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'Employee.fieldFixedLengths' or 'Employee.fieldSeparator' is missing Consistency check: no. of arguments in 'Employee.fieldFixedLength' does not match 'Employee.fieldNames' (0 <> 1)
Pls let me know the parameters to attain below XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ns:MT_Employee xmlns:ns="http://Test_Employee">
<Employee>
<EmpID>101</EmpID>
<EmpID>102</EmpID>
<EmpID>103</EmpID>
<EmpID>104</EmpID>
</Employee>
</ns:MT_Employee>
from below input file structure:

PI 7.1 Ehp1 IDOC adapter message packaging - package options on sender side

Hi guys,
I am trying to use the new IDOC adapter PI7.1 Ehp1 functionality for packaging the IDOCs in single PI message, instead of using Collect pattern in BPM. I have configured IDOC sender comm. channel with Sender Agreement as well. So far, so good, but I am wondering if the packaging done on PI side should be the same as the packaging parameters on sender side...
What I mean? Do I have to set the Pack. Size (we20) to be the same as the one on PI, and do I have to use "Collect IDocs" as
Output mode (also found in we20) .. I guess "Yes".. Actually what I got also is that I have to schedule RSEOUT00 if I am using the option to Collect IDOCs, right ? Can execution of RSEOUT00 be "plugged" somehow to be executed after bd21(Creation of IDocs from change pointers) execution ..?
If you have any personal experience on this - please share it with me
Thanks & Best Regards,
Lalo

I am wondering if the packaging done on PI side should be the same as the packaging parameters on sender side
Do not have to be same.
Think of this way: there are two containers carrying water: A for ECC and B for PI (specified in communication channel), you are defining the size of the containers.
If Size of A > B, then, One full A will need more than one B to handle, means multiple PI messages will be created.
if Size of A < B, One PI message is enough to handle incoming package.
For sure in partner profile of ECC, you will need to enable IDOC packaging and specify the size (container A).

Hi Peddaraju,
Cross check correct source directory and file name is maintained in the sender file communication channel. If everything is fine try to restart the XPI File Adapter service in NWA.
Troubleshoot as suggested in the below thread:
File Adapter in PI not reading file from file system.

Hi
I have FCC at sender picking up a csv file . Header comprises field name and at item level is the values for the field names and at trailer we have record count .
need to ignore header and trailer and the item data is passed to proxy strcuture
Document offset been done to ignore header but iwhen i see the mesage in sxmb_moni , I am unable to get the trailer but the trailer field is again taken as the item level .
File - no key specified
Docno,docdate,invoiceno,passname
500,20.07.2010,123,AAAA
Recordcount,5
In datatype i have not defined the header but onky with item and trailer record.
fcc
item.fieldnames
item.fieldSeparator
item.endSeparator
item.keyFieldvalue
when i see the message in moni , incoming message with the item and trailer is not distinguished and trailer is taken as a item level data itslef Please advise where I am going wrong

Hi
Checked out all possiblities and finally the adapter module is here for removing trailer record but instead using byte array stream I have acquired thexml in a string
public byte[] convert(byte src[],String msgType,String nameSpace) throws Exception {
String xmldata = "";

Creation of simple webservice at Sender side

Hi experts,
I have a requirement in which I need to create a web service (WSDL structure is available).
Kindly provide me links to blogs which explain the process of creation of web service at sender side.
Also is there a difference in process during the creation for sender/receiver side?
Thanks in advance,
Thomas

Also is there a difference in process during the creation for sender/receiver side?
When using SOAP on the sender side you develop the structure and corresponding Interface in XI/ PI and then provide the WSDL file to the sending application whereas when SOAP is on the receiving end you import the WSDL file provided by the target application and then develop the Interface.
For rest of your question(s) i sould suggest you make a search on SDN with keywords "how to create wsdl" or "how to generate wsdl" with the date range as All....there are lots of threads answered with this....even ther are some blogs readily available.
Regards,
Abhishek.

Updating 3rd parties db table using JDBC adapter at sender side

hi all.
i just want to know how i can updated the 3rd party db table field.
my scenario is just to retrieve data from 3rd party DB table where the condition is like " to select records where processed (field name ) = " ".
but i just need to update this field to x immediately after retrieving data from it.
so i simply wote the sql statement select REC_NO, ACTN_DAT, METRNO, MET-READ from PHAKAMA_CONN where processed = " ". under jdbc CC query sql stmt at sender side .
but i want to know how we can updated the processed (field ) from " " to "x"immeidtely after retrieving.
so could any body advice me how we can achiev this through UPDATE SQL STMT under sender jdbc cc.i just want to know wat stmt do we need to srite under this.
waiting for u r response.
cheers.
seeta ram.

Ram,
Execute your Select statement as needed and in the sender jdbc communication channel in the update SQL statement give this:
UPDATE <tablename> SET <fieldname> = 'X' WHERE <fieldname>= ' '
Also just to make sure if you have access to the database just login and execute this statement which should give the results as expected. If this works here successfully then it executes the same in XI also.

Mapping problem due to FCC in sender file adapter

Hi All
I am doing File( Flat File ) to RFC Scenario.it is working fine..
the problem comes in mapping with multiple records.
FCC at sender file adapter is used
my Data Type are :
Source DT Target RFC import parameter(table).
E2ED20* ITEM*
 KEY VBELN
 VBELN POSNR
E2E24* CHARG
 KEY
 POSNR
 CHARG
*->>multiple occurence
E2ED20 and E2E24 are 2 segment ,KEY is used in FCC to identify E2EDL20 & E2EDL24
My source text file is like this :
E2EDL20 0200
E2EDL24 xyz
E2EDL20 0201
E2EDL24 abc
E2EDL24 efg
E2EDL24 mln
E2EDL20 0202
E2EDL24 gty
so the payload should be :
0200 xyz
0201 abc
0201 efg
0201 mln
0202 gty
in FCC ignoer record set= true
otherwise is not called...
i try to use split by value & use oneasmany , not helpfull.
in message mapping when i checked th field VBELN -> display queue
i am getting an array 0200
 0201
 0202 in white fields
thanks & regards
