Process CSV-Files dynamically

Hi all,
I need to process CSV-Files dynamically, i.e. not using a static order for splitting the values of the lines into the according variables, but determining the mapping dynamically using a header line in the CSV-File.
For instance:
#dcu;item;subitem
827160;5111001000;3150
So if the order in the the CSV-File changes to e.g.
#item;dcu;subitem
5111001000;827160;3150
the program should fill the corresponding variables (ls_upload-dcu, ls_upload-item, ls_load-subitem) dynamically without the need to change the code.
If anyone has a solution, please let me know.
Thanks,
Thomas

Hello Litu,
Are you using: OLEDB Source and Destination ?
Can you change the source and destination provider to ADO.NET and check if the issue still persist?

Issue with processing .csv file

Hi.
I have a simple csv file (multiple rows) which needs to be picked up by the PI File adapter and then processed into a BAPi.
I created a Data type 'Record' which has the column names. Then there is a message type using this particular data type MT_SourceOrder. This message type is mapped to BAPI_SALESORDER_CREATEFROMDAT2. I have done the configuration is the receiver file adapter as well to accept the .csv file
Document Name: MT_SourceOrder
Doc Namespace:....
Recorset Name: Recordset
Recordset Structure: Row,*
Recordset Sequence: Ascending
Recordsets per message: 1000
Key Field Type: Ascending
In the parameter section, the following information has been provided:
Row.fieldNames     MerchantID,OrderNumber,OrderDate,Description,VendorSKU,MerchantSKU,Size,UnitPrice,UnitCost,ItemCount,ItemLineNumber,Quantity,Name,Address1,Address2,Address3,City,State,Country,Zip,Phone,ShipMethod,ServiceType,GiftMessage,Tax,Accountno,CustomerPO
Row.fieldSeparator     ,
Row.processConfiguration     FromConfiguration
However, when the mapping is still not working correctly.
Can anyone please help.
This is very urgent and all help is very much appreciated.
Thanks.

Use .CSV files to UPDATE

Hi,
I have a requirement to process .CSV files and use the info to UPDATE an existing table. One line from the file matches a row in the existing table by an unique key. There is no need to keep the data from the .CSV files after.
I was planning to use a temporary table with an INSERT trigger that will perform the UPDATE, with ON COMMIT DELETE ROWS, and have sqlldr load the data in this temporary table.
But I found out that sqlldr cannot load into temporary tables (SQL*Loader-280).
What would be other options? The .CSV files are retrieved periodically (every 15 min), have all the same structure, their number can vary, and their filename is unique.
Thank you in advance.

SQL*Loader-280 "table %s is a temporary table"
*Cause: The sqlldr utility does not load temporary tables. Note that if sqlldr did allow loading of temporary tables, the data would
disappear after the load completed.
*Action: Load the data into a non-temporary table. Can't you load data into non-temporary table and drop after update?

OBIEE 11g - issue when export to a csv file

Hello,
I have an issue when I try to export to a csv file a report having numeric feild, when I export and open the file in notepad the trailing zeros to the right of decimal points do not show up. When export to another formats (such as excel, pdf) the trailing zeros appears correctly. e..g, 100.00 appears as 100, 100.50 appears as 100.5.
Do you know what can be done in order to have trailing zeros to the right of decimal points to appear in a csv?
Thanks

Save a csv file on local host, executing a DTP Open hub in a Process chain?

Hi All,
my client has asked me to try if there is a way to save in the local host c:\ a .CSV file generated from an Open HUB executed by a DTP in a Process chain.
when i execute my DTP it work correctly and it save the .csv file on my c:\ directory.
my client doesn't want to give th users authtorization on RSA1 and want to try if there is a way to put the DTP in a process chain
and when executing the process chain every user can have the file on his own local c:\ directory.
i tried this solution but it doesn't work i get an error on executin the process chain:
Runtime Errors         OBJECTS_OBJREF_NOT_ASSIGNED
Except.                     CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_REF_IS_INITIAL', was not
     caught in
    procedure "FILE_DELETE" "(METHOD)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    You attempted to use a 'NULL' object reference (points to 'nothing')
    access a component (variable: "CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>HANDLE").
    An object reference must point to an object (an instance of a class)
    before it can be used to access components.
    Either the reference was never set or it was set to 'NULL' using the
    CLEAR statement.
can you give some advices please?
Thanks for All
Bilal

Hi Bilal,
Unfortunately, DTPs belonging to Open Hubs wich are targeted to a local workstation file, can't be executed through a process chain.
The only way of including such DTP in a process chain is changing the Open Hub so that it writes the output file in the application server. Then, you can retrieve the file -through FTP or any other means- from the application server to the local workstation.
Hope this helps.
King regards,
Maximiliano

Uploading & Processing of CSV file fails in clustered env.

          We have a csv file which is uploaded to the weblogic application server, written
          to a temporary directory and then manipulated before being written to the database.
          This process works correctly in a single server environment but fails in a clustered
          environment.
          The file gets uploaded to the server into the temporary directory without problem.
          The processing starts. When running in a cluster the csv file is replicated
          to a temporary directory on the secondary server as well as the primary.
          The manipulation process is running but never finishes and the browser times out
          with the following message:
          Message from the NSAPI plugin:
          No backend server available for connection: timed out after 30 seconds.

          It doesn't make sense? Who is replicating the file? How long does it
          take to process the file? Which plugin are you using as proxy to the
          cluster?

Csv file processing using external table

Dear All,
Our database is oracle 10g r2 and OS is solaris
We would receive csv files to a particular directory on server each day.
File Format look like:
H00,SOURCE_NAME,FILE_CREATED_DATE
RECORD_TYPE,EMP_ID,EMP_NAME,EMP_DOB(DDMMYYYY),EMP_HIRE_DATE(DDMMYYYY),EMP_LOCATION
T00,RECORD_COUNT
EMPLOYEE TABLE STRUCTURE
EMP_ID                   NOT NULL    NUMBER ,
EMP_NAME            NOT NULL    VARCHAR2(10) ,
EMP_DOB                                  DATE,
EMP_HIRE_DATE   NOT NULL     DATE,
EMP_LOCATION                VARCHAR2(80)
Sample File:
H00,ABC,21092013
"R01",1,"EMP1","14021986","06072010","LOC1"
"R01",20000000000,"EMP2","14021-987","06072011",""
,***,"EMPPPPPPPPPPP3","14021988","060**012","LOC2"
"R01",4,4,"14021989","06072013",
T00,4
we need to validate each record excluding header and trailer for:
DATATYPE, LENGTH,OPTIONALITY, and other date validations such as EMP_HIRE_DATE can not be less than EMP_DOB
In case of any data errors we need to send a response file for corresponding source file.
we have predefined error codes to be sent in the response file.
ERR001    EMP_ID can not be null
ERR002    EMP_ID exceeds 10 digits
ERR003    EMP_ID is not a number
ERR004    EMP_NAME   has to be text
ERR005    EMP_NAME length can not exceed 10
ERR006    EMP_NAME   can not be null
ERR007    EMP_DOB is not a date
ERR008    EMP_DOB is not in ddmmyyyy format
ERR009    EMP_HIRE_DATE is not a date
ERR010    EMP_HIRE_DATE is not in ddmmyyyy format
ERR011    EMP_HIRE_DATE can not be null
ERR012    EMP_LOCATION    has to be text
ERR013    EMP_LOCATION   length can not exceed 80
ERR014    EMP_HIRE_DATE can not be less than EMP_DOB
ERR015    Field missing in the record
ERR016    More number of fields than allowed
1.Do I need to create external table before processing each file.(EMP1.txt,EMP2.txt)?
2.How to generate these error codes in case of respective failure scenarios and to log into an exception table?
3.response file needs to have entire record and a concatination of all the error codes in the next line.
4.what would be a better approach among
creating an external table with all char(2000) fields and writing a select statement
such as select * from ext_table where (emp id is not null and length(emp_id)<=10 and....to select only proper data);
or creating the external table to be same as employee table and creating a bad file? if this is the preferred how can I generate the custom error codes?
Could you please help me in achieving this!
Warm Regards,
Shankar.

You can do a one-time creation of an external table. After that, you can either overwrite the existing text file or alter the location. In the example below I have split your original sample file into two files, in order to demonstrate altering the location. You can make the external table all varchar2 fields as large as they need to be to accommodate all possible data. If you then create a staging table and rejects table of the same structure, you can create a trigger on the staging table such that, when you insert from the external table to the staging table, it inserts into either the employee table or rejects table with the concatenated error list. If you want this in a file, then you can just spool a select from the rejects table or use some other method such as utl_file. The following is a partial example. Another alternative would be to use SQL*Loader to load directly into the staging table without an external table.

How to process large input CSV file with File adapter

Hi,
could someone recommend me the right BPEL way to process the large input CSV file (4MB or more with at least 5000 rows) with File Adapter?
My idea is to receive data from file (poll the UX directory for new input file), transform it and then export to one output CSV file (input for other system).
I developed my process that consists of:
- File adapter partnerlink for read data
- Receive activity with checked box to create instance
- Transform activity
- Invoke activity for writing to output CSV.
I tried this with small input file and everything was OK, but now when I try to use the complete input file, the process doesn't start and automatically goes to OFF state in BPEL console.
Could I use the MaxTransactionSize parameter as in DB adapter, should I batch the input file or other way could help me?
Any hint from you? I've to solve this problem till this thursday.
Thanks,
Milan K.

This is a known issue. Martin Kleinman has posted several issues on the forum here, with a similar scenario using ESB. This can only be solved by completely tuning the BPEL application itself, and throwing in big hardware.
Also switching to the latest 10.1.3.3 version of the SOA Suite (assuming you didn't already) will show some improvements.

you shouldn't need a csv if you want a fixed file you need some thing like
read:
<xsd:element name="C1" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="fixedLength" nxsd:length="1" nxsd:paddedBy=" " nxsd:padStyle="tail" />
<xsd:element name="C2" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="fixedLength" nxsd:length="xx" nxsd:paddedBy=" " nxsd:padStyle="tail" />
write:
<xsd:element name="C1" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="fixedLength" nxsd:length="1" nxsd:paddedBy=" " nxsd:padStyle="tail" />
<xsd:element name="C2" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="fixedLength" nxsd:length="xx" nxsd:paddedBy=" " nxsd:padStyle="tail" />
<xsd:element name="C3" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="fixedLength" nxsd:length="5" nxsd:paddedBy=" " nxsd:padStyle="tail" />xx stands for the length of your line
hope this makes sense
cheers

Setting required to process incomming Email with CSV file attached

Dear all,
We are having a scenario where in the supplier receives a PO confirmation CSV file from the download center as an Email attachment. The supplier updates the file by confirming PO's and replies back. The CSV file needs to update the confirmed PO's in SNC.
The SO50 settings are in place but still we are not able to receive the Email back in SNC. Any suggestion on what settings we need in SNC to receive and process the CSV file?
thanks,
mahehs

Hi,
You can use the upload center to process the changed data. Isnt that helpful?

Processing Several Records in a CSV File

Hello Experts!
I'm currently using XI to process an incoming CSV file containing Accounts Payable information. The data from the CSV file is used to call a BAPI in the ECC (BAPI_ACC_DOCUMENT_POST). Return messages are written to text file. I'm also using BPM. So far, I've been able to get everything to work - financial documents are successfully created in the ECC I also receive the success message in my return text file.
I am, however, having one small problem... No matter how many records are in the CSV file, XI only processes the very first record. So my question is this: Why isn't XI processing all the records? Do I need a loop in my BPM? Are there occurrence settings that I'm missing? I kinda figured XI would simply process each record in the file.
Also, are there some good examples out there that show me how this is done?
Thanks a lot, I more than appreciate any help!

Matthew,
First let me explain the BPM Steps,
Recv--->Transformation1->For-Each Block->Transformation2->Synch Call->Container(To append the response from BAPI)->Transformation3--->Send
Transformation3 and Send must be outside Block.
Transformation1
Here, the source and target must be same. I think you must be know to split the messages, if not see the below example
Source
<MT_Input>
<Records>
<Field1>Value1</Field1>
<Field2>Value1</Field2>
</Records>
<Records>
<Field1>Value2</Field1>
<Field2>Value2</Field2>
</Records>
<Records>
<Field1>Value3</Field1>
<Field3>Value3</Field3>
</Records>
</MT_Input>
Now , I need to split the messages for each Records, so what I can do?
In Message Mapping, choose the source and target as same and in the Messages tab, choose the target occurrence as 0..Unbounded.
Now,if you come to Mapping tab, you can see Messages tag added to your structure, and also you can see <MT_Input> occurrence will be changed to 0..unbounded.
Here is the logic now
Map Records to MT_INPUT
Constant(empty) to Records
Map rest of the fields directly. Now your o/p looks like
<Messages>
<Message1>
<MT_Input>
<Records>
<Field1>Value1</Field1>
<Field2>Value1</Field2>
</Records>
</MT_Input>
<MT_Input>
<Records>
<Field1>Value2</Field1>
<Field2>Value2</Field2>
</Records>
</MT_Input>
<MT_Input>
<Records>
<Field1>Value3</Field1>
<Field3>Value3</Field3>
</Records>
</MT_Input>
</Message1>
</Messages>
