Acknowledgment in File Adapter

Hi,
I tried a BPM that receive from a SOAP and
writes into a file. I need BPM because of
alerts.
Because I started a s/a-bridge, I would like
to send the soap adapter a response (like an
errorcode). The sender step got a field
Acknowledgement. How can I use this? In SAP XI
documentation it says that the receiver got to
send an acknowledgement, but I can't find how
a file communication channel can send an acknowledgement.
Any experiences??
thanks
chris

I think there would be an alert if the file adpater
could not reach the file system if I build my
integration prozess like this:
-> block with exception -> open s/a-bridge -> send to file -> close s/a-bridge
The exception should close process with a control step.
So, if I would like to close the message with a message that included an errormessage field and fill this field with a constant, how can I do this? Do I have to add a transformation step?
I have:
Message-types:
- a request for soap
- a response for soap
- a request for file (it's not necessary, but I would like to split of web service from writing structure)
Interface:
- a sync out for web service
- a sync abs for BPM
- a request abs for BPM (web service)
- a response abs for BPM (web service)
- a request abs for BPM (file)
Mapping:
- sync out to sync abs (web service)
- request abs (web service) to request abs (file)
- ??? One for mapping constant into repsonse?
how can I do the mapping of the constant, if I don't
have a file response??
thanks
chris

Asyncronous acknowledge from file adapter

Hi,
I have the next scenario: SAP IDOC --> XI --> Flat File.
I want to retrieve some functional acknowledge information from the third system which XI sent the flat file to.
The third system can send the acknowledge information in another flat file.
Do you have some experience in a similar scenario?. I guess I have to use some BPM, maybe when XI send the flat file, It would have to wait the acknowledge file.
If I don't use a BPM, how I can correlate the "information message" with the "acknowledge message" ?
Regards,
Francisco

Hi,
Given this case,
if you get the docnum in your response, you can update the status of the idoc by the below way.
1) map it to an ALEAUD or STATUS idoc type
- the information what you need will ONLY be the Docnum of your base Idoc (which you sent earlier to file system)
2) post this idoc in the SAP system & your Base idoc's status gets changed..
when you use ALEAUD idoc type, you may have to follow certain things for appropriate status. check the msg with subject "Acknowledgements ever switch to Status 39" in the forum
Also, I am not sure if you can do this without BPM. you need not co-relate (if you have docnum) & if you plan in this way of doing it.
Hope this helps.

File Adapter Acknowledgement in BPM - NEW Question

This is in cntinuation of my earlier question:
File Adapter Acknowledgement in BPM
Now I understand that the send step should wait to get the acknowledgement from file adapter.
As I understand This ack may be +ve or -ve.
So my question is how do we test for + ve acknowledgement in the next step / switch?
Thanks,
HImadri

hi,
in condition editor of this switch step you need to choose technical objects
and check it they = true
for sender apps
you can also use Main/MessageClass field
have a look at the bottom of this page to
check their values:

Problem receiving acknowledgement: abap proxy == file adapter

Hi experts,
I am developing an asynchrone interface using PI 7.0. The scenario is: SAP ==> FILE.
In SAP I have created an abap proxy in wich I requested an acknowledgement when calling from the abap code. In PI I have created an Integration Process with a receive step, and a send step. In de send step I am asking for a transport acknowledgement.
When I test the interface and I look in the SXMB_MONI in PI, I see the acknowledgement given back to the IP, but in the SAP backend system I don't receive anything in the abap proxy which had send the original message. In de SXMB_MONI from SAP I see a "?" Still awaiting acknowledgement.
Can anyone help me with this scenario? I really need an acknowledgement from the file adapter in the calling abap proxy.
Regards, Jeroen

You need to crate a REceiver Agreement for this sender...
The Integration Server sends an acknowledgment message back to the sender (CENTRAL_BACK). It uses the name of the sender system for logical and technical backward routing.
If the sender is addressed using an ABAP proxy, you must define a corresponding receiver agreement for this sender.

Acknowledgement from receiver file Adapter with out BPM

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to get Acknowledgement from Receiver file Adapter with out Using BPM.
Here is the scenario. I am sending files from different Sender Adapters. There is only one target that is File Adapter. After each successfull and failure transaction I need an Acknowledgement that needs to trigger another receiver adapter and send the the file name and timestamp to that file.
Hope this is a complicated scenario. Please help me.
Thanks,
Kevin

from sap note 821267
6. Acknowledgements
    * Q: Does the File Adapter support acknowledgements?
    * A: You need to distinguish system acknowledgements (indicating that a message has been received by the target system) and application acknowledgements (indicating that the message has been successfully processed by the application on the receiver side).
           The receiver of an XI message will only send an acknowledgement back to the sender if the sender has requested one. However, the File Adapter has no functionality that relies on the receipt of an acknowledgement, so it never requests one.
           On the other hand, if a File Adapter Receiver receives a request to send an acknowledgement, it will do so for a system acknowledgement request. Application acknowledgements are not supported at all as the File Receiver has no way to determine if the written file has been correctly processed by the back-end application, which is what a positive application acknowledgement would imply.
this means that your requirement is ideally not possible without a BPM

File Adapter Acknowledgement in BPM

Himadri,
You cannot achieve this unfortunately
Reason is that file adapter supports only Transport Acknowledgements. What this implies is that the BPM checks only if the message is sent from the BPE to the Adapter Engine Successfully. It does not check to see if the file is written in the target destination.
Just try this, give an incorrect folder ( or something of this sort ) in the file adpater and try Transport Acknowledgement. Wrap this around an exception block. You will be surprised that the exception block is not called.
Reason like i told is that the BPE thinks it is successful as the message has been passed to the adapter engine.!
Regards
Bhavesh

Sandro,
Thanks for that input. Actually tried the same on my XI box and what you have told is absolutely correct.
Until the transport acknowledgement is not received for the first send step, the next send step will not be called! I seem to have forgotten something somewhere or my observation which I had given earlier was with respect to some othe scenario which am not able to recollect!
Himadri~~ Apologies for the incorrect answer. Transport Ack's should do the trick for you like correct pointed by Sandro.
Thanks,

Acknowledgment not possible ..File adapter ..receiver side

Hi XI Friends
In my Simple IDOC to File Scenario...
i am getting successfull meessage in SXMB_MONI.but in sxmb_moni ,the acknowledgment status is not possible.
my inbound inteface is of file and asynchrounous type.
how can i get acknowledgment .
please guid me.
thanks and regards
Ram

Hi,
File adapter does not support Application Acknowledgements.
In your case, turn of the Acknowledgements, by adding the entry in the table IDXNOALE in XI for the Sender Port and idoc type. After this, the Acknowledgement column in MONI will be empty.

Bhavesh

File adapter- Add time stamp

Dear All,
Scenario:-
File to Proxy and Acknowledgement SAP to File.
Once the file is received by SAP and first ack is send as recepit of file to Legacy system, after that the process goes ahead and do other validation and the same outbound proxy is triggered and send the respeonce.
Now in Ack i am using the same strucutre to send the file receipt and the other response and in file adapter I am differentiatiing the file with Add time stamp option.
Problem:-
My Ack Response from R3 is coming very immidiately. For example Reciept time stamp and other response time stamp is same.
Hence my legacy system is not able to differentiate which is the first flow. Ideally after receipt the other file will be seen by Legacy.
How can I resolve the problem in case when the time stamp for both the flow is same.
I can see Add time stamp option has yyyyMMdd-HHmmss-SSS wat is SSS stands for?
Chirag.

Hi,
My Ack Response from R3 is coming very immidiately. For example Reciept time stamp and other response time stamp is same.
Request / response timestamp can't be same, even if it happens at real time.
I can see Add time stamp option has yyyyMMdd-HHmmss-SSS wat is SSS stands for?
SSS is milliseconds having values between 000-999.

File by File picking with Standard File Adapter with NFS Protocal !!

Hi Folks,
How to pick file by file with little gap in a file directory by Standard File Adapter. One interface, one communication channle.
Ex: XML_XXXXX_XXXX1.xml

Hi
My BPM steps are as follows:
1. Receive step -- Asynch
2. Transformation -- split the message
3. Switch step -- Condition "ID != ' ' from transform message'
4. In side Switch Branch 1 -- Receiver determination - Receive acknowledgment - Application
5. Send 1 -- with Application Transport, Queue Name - 'XXX'
      This XXX queue I have configured on ID with EOIO Service
6. block step - Send multiple messages to same receiver on top
    I have send 2 different message to one receiver, the first message is only one , second message are multiple. I am splitting    with transformation step
7. Sender -2 no acknowledgement active
8. stop
Can you please tell me where I am gonna wrong!!
I will apprecite for your efforts

File adapter become second step in the ccBPM (filename base on the input)

Hi XI Expert,
Could you help to advise me, what i should o with this scenario :
i have ccBPM scenario :
1. monitoring database table (using JDBC adapter), query filepath information and update
status accordingly after process.
2. read xml file (name and path base on the first step).
my problem is how to pass filepath and filename to file adapter, becase as i know file adapter (sender) only
can monitoring fix directory and file (patter).
Thank you

Transport Acknowledgement for HTTP adapter

Hi all,
I have the following Integration Process (BPM) defined.
I receive a RFC Message from R/3 in XI. The RFC message is put into a BPM scenario. It then waits for a second message to arrive which belongs to the first. Then i have to send the two messages in order (first the 1st message, then the second). These messages are both Asynchron. To make sure the messages are sent in correct order, i put the send steps in separate blocks and i request a transport acknowledgement. The message is written with a file adapter to a directory. This is on the testing environment and (as far as i can see now) working correct, because the send step is waiting for the acknowledgement and then going to process the second message.
Now in the production system we do not send the message to a file, but to another system using the HTTP adapter. I cannot test this in any other system, so my question is: Can i use the Transport Acknowledgement with the HTTP adapter in the production system to make sure the messages are delivered in correct order???
Or do i have to do other things?
Thanks in advance!
Marcel Leeraar

Hi,
Considering that HTTP adapters also support transport ack's, I dont think this should be a problem and it should work just as it did with file adapters.

Setting Delay in File Adapter

Hi All,
I have a file to ABAP proxy asynchronous scenario.
In the source directory i have 2 xml files. The second XML file should be picked up by the file adapter only after processing the First file by the ABAP proxy.
I know about setting delay in Mapping. But this wont suffice my requirement.
Appreciate your help in this
Keerthi

Hi,
do'nt thing so wait modification will work...
try it with the help of BPM
file is in Asyn Mode.
So 2 message will be there for 2 file, now it can be handled in BPM, that if proxy return OK acknowledgement for 1st message,
then 2 mapping should executed.
File1 -{BPM receive step -> transformation-> Sync Send -> if proxy respone ok , Block->then 2 transformation else leave the 2nd file message}.

Capturing Errors in Acknowledgements in MDM adapter - PI7.11

Hi Experts
I am working on a File to MDMadapter in PI 7.11 , I am sending a request to MDM adapter and receiving the acknowledgements back to PI, but in failed status. I have configure the Alerts to capture the erros in runtime work bench.
However whenever there is a failure on the Acknowledgements the alerts are not being sent. How can I capture the errors in Acknowledgements from MDM adapter.
Thanks
PR

Hi PR,
can you tell us what exactly do you mean by receiving acknowlegdements in error status?
Do you mean you there was an ackowledgement from MDM saying that the load was un-succesful?
Or do you mean there was an acknowledgement which went into failed status, because there was no configuration done in PI to handle that acknowledgement?
If you mean 2nd point, then you should have a scenario to handle the acknowledgements and then have the alerts configured the normal way.
Best Regards,
Ravi

FileName in Sender File Adapter Module

Hi Folks,
In my sender file adapter have written a module to read the picked file name. The protocol used is NFS.
Notice that the file name read in the module has the absolute path, including the directory path. E.g The file name xyz has to be picked from source directory
XIServer\Outbound. In the module when I retrieve the file name, it comes up as
XIServer\Outbound\xyz. Is this expected behaviour?
I was expecting just the file name<xyz> to be retrieved.
Thanks,
Anand

HI,
Create an UDF and write this code.
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key =
DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
in Adapter u will have Adapter specific parameters check the file name check box.
Using this UDF u will get the file name at target side.

Phani.

Getting Error while running a file adapter.

Hi all,
I am doing a small application where I need to read an image from a shared path and send the base64code of that image in response. For that I am using File Adapter and Read
operation. I have just hard coded the image name didnt give any wild card or expressions. I generated a service which is a proxy using the jca of that File Adapter. I added a stage
replacing the response body with the opaque element of the request body. When I run the proxy I am getting something like *"The invocation resulted in an error: "* in response
and in the stack trace I am getting *"Failed to set the value of context variable "body". Value must be an instance of {http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/}Body."* as the fault
reason I am unable to detect where exactly I am going wrong. Kindly help me in resolving this.
Thanks,
Phanindra.

Not sure why you want to replace. Since the response of the proxy would remain to hold the request body by default.
If you have stored the opaque element in a variable ($var_opaque), then you can do the following.
XPath : .
In variable : body
Expression : $var_opaque
Check - "Replace node content"
