THERE
there is no parameter to achieve what you want in FCC.
as mentioned earlier you will have to use a function to remove the "
you dont have to create a UDF you can use the standard text function available in XI - replaceString

Regarding content conversion parameters at receiver side

Hi
In the recevier side I have 3 nodes.
like HEADER,BODY,TRAILER.
file receiver communication channel I mentioned
RecordsetStructure* HEADER,BODY,TRAILER
parmeters I mentioned
HEADER.fieldFixedLengths
HEADER.endSeparator
BODY.fieldFixedLengths
BODY.endSeparator
TRAILER.fieldFixedLenghths
TRAILER.endSeparator.
In runtime workbench it is showing "Channel has not been correctly initialized and cannot process messages"
Please tell me is there any other parameters I have to mention.

REGARDING CONTENT CONVERSION IN SENDER SIDE

Hi
I have a flat file like this
column names NO NAME AGE
FLAT FILE IS   1#KIRAN#27
                       2###28
                       3#RAVI#28
in the second record the name field is also filled with #
so please tell me how can we handle this
thanks&regards
venkat

Hi Venkat ,
Use .fieldFixedLengths option if lenth is always unique,
If not you have to go for UDF..as i Know.
If you made a specification for .fieldFixedLengths, the length of the separator is not taken into account.
You must specify at least either NameA.fieldFixedLengths or NameA.fieldSeparator.
If you have only specified .fieldSeparator, the structures of the XML document can have differing numbers of elements that are added to each other separately in the text file by the value from .fieldSeparator. If you specify .fieldFixedLengths this is not possible since the number of columns is defined when the column widths are given.
BestRegards,
Ramesh.

Regarding content conversion paratmeters

Hi
In my scenario we are using in the receiver file format # as field
separator and in the same scenario we are using # for empty column field .
so please tell me can we use one operator for both requirements
regards
venkat.

Hi,
Technically it will work and you will get a ouput like this.
Sample output:(if you use # for both.)
field1#field2###field4
Sample output:(if you use # for empty field and tabdelimeter for seperator)
field1 field2 # field4
always look for a meaning full output.

Content Conversion Parameter- Help

Dear Friends,
I have a quick question regarding content conversion paramter.
My structure is as follows
<MT_Root>
<Statement_response>
<row>
<Value1>ABC</Value1>
<Value2>CDE</Value2>
<Value3/>
</row>
<row>
<Value1>DATA</Value1>

<Value3/>
</row>
<row>
<Value1>CHECK</Value1>
<Value2>OUT</Value2>
<Value3/>
</row>
</Statement_response>
</MT_Root>
In the receiver adapter i'm using
Record Structure :MT_Root,Statement_response,row
row.fieldSeparator ,
Statement_response.endSeparator 'nl'
Statement_response.fieldSeparator 'nl'
Everything is fine , if you see the o/p file there are lot of spaces appened between each fields. I don't want the spaces.
If you guys help me out, I'll really appreciate it!!
Thanks,
raj.

hi,
possibly you could use small lengths while passing the data to file in FCC parameters.
i.e fixedfieldlengths.
also use the TooShortHandlingfield parameter with value "cut". it will ignore the large length of the fields and cut it down as per the values.
Plesae refer below link for usage of these parameters,

How should i configure sender file adapter for file content conversion for above structure(in this case input is fixed lenth text), and i could able to change source structure according to our req, without changing target RFC strucuture.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

i am getting error like this: even when i change source structure like below metioned:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber xmlns:ns0="urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32">

Please help me out
thanks
dhanush

Hi Dhanush,
Try giving the Sender FCC this way for the source structure you have mentioned above.
Record structure as: COMMIT,1,IDENTIFICATION,1
COMMIT.fieldNames : COMMIT_I
COMMIT.fieldFixedlengths: 1
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi Dhanush,
                    It is better always if u have a structure with Header and trailers if u have a subsrtuctures in it & always try make it in this format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_ContentConversion_Test>
   <Header>
      <F1>HF1</F1>
      <F2>HF2</F2>
   </Header>
   <Item>
      <F1>IF1</F1>
      <F2>IF2</F2>
   <Item>
   <Trailer>
      <F1>TF1</F1>

Regarding file content conversion

Re: regarding file content conversion
Posted: Sep 25, 2008 11:30 AM in response to: kummari Edit E-mail this message Reply
i tried.but m getting this error
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure 'ns1:MT_HyperionReport' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)': java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure 'ns1:MT_HyperionReport' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
Actually my input structure is:

<LineItems>
<ReportingUnit>rama</ReportingUnit>
<ProfitCentre>844</ProfitCentre>

</LineItems>
</ns0:MT_ECCReport>
and in FCC i wrote below these three lines:
LineItems.fieldSeparator 'nl'
MT_HyperionReport.fieldSeparator 'nl'
LineItems.fieldSeparator 'nl'
So please tell me what is wrong in this

MT_HyperionReport is your message type and this represents the top level node of your message. Below this you have your records. You have MT_HyperionReport as a record type which is clearly not going to work.
In the content conversion parameters section the following fields should be filled, you dont need to specify Recordset if your XML structure does not include this node see SAPhelp example:
Document Name: MT_HyperionReport
Document Namespace: <look at your message type in the designer>
Recordset Structure: Record_type1,<occurrence 1..>, Record_type2,<occurrence 1..>
In the parameter box:
Record_type1.fieldSeparator
Record_type1.fieldNames
ignoreRecordsetName value true
Record_type2...
The SAP help on this is pretty clear and comprehensive...

Query regarding file content conversion using file adapter

Hi All
I have a question regarding file content conversion in file adapter.
I have a file coming in the following format.
AA,111,222,333
BB,444,555,666
CC,777,888,999
My incoming message structure has a hierarchy. The CC record is a structure part of BB record. BB record is a structure part of AA record. It is like this:
AA,111,222,333
<<BB,444,555,666>>
<<<<CC,777,888,999>>>>
After file content conversion, in the resulted xml, i am getting a flat hierarchy instead of nested hierarchy.
Is it possible to get a nested hierarchy as a result of file content conversion?
Please let me know
Thanks
Chandra

Hi Udo
According to your suggestion, I am trying to use mapping.
I am getting a flat file and i am reading it.
This is my source structure:
AA,11,22,33
BB,44,55,66
CC,77,88,99
This is my required targer structure:
AA,11,22,33
<<BB,44,55,66>>
<<<<CC,77,88,99>>>>
To explain this, BB record can have multiple records of CC records.
AA records can have multiple records of BB record.
I am using removecontext node function.
CC (Source) (removecontext)-> CC (target structure)
But here, when i rightclick on source CC field in the mapping editor, i cannot see any other context except root node. So, how can i proceed here??
Many Thanks
Chandra

Question regarding File Content Conversion

Dear SAP experts,
I need you expert advise regarding this.
I have here my sample structure,
CSV ---> this is the message type of the message
   '-- ROOT --> this is the root node
           '-- FieldA --> has a value of "Filename"
           '-- Field B
                  '-- subfield1 --> has a value of "A"
                  '-- subfield2 --> has a value of "B"
                  '-- subfied3 --> has a value of "C"
I want to output this flatfile,
subfield1;subfield2;subfield3
A;B;C
the output flatfile must have Header lines (subfield1;subfield2;subfield3)
What will be the correct parameters in my File Content Conversion, so as, the value "Filename" will not be included in the output flatfile?
Recordset Structure: ?
Kindly advise.
Thank you very much!
Fred
