Assigning dynamic file name in the FTP adapater in OSB 11g

Hi,
I have got a requirement where I need to FTP a file(put operation) with a name which goes like this
XYZ_<abc>_ddmmyyhhmiss. Here <abc> will be coming from a previous DB adpater query and is a column value so, will be dynamic.
I have created a FTP adapter in Jdev and migrated all the files to Eclipse, created a Business service out of it.
I can see the .jca properties in the JCA Transport tab of the business service.
Now my question is how to set the value of FileNamingConvention field in the business service dynamically which i believe would let me set the file names.
Regards,
Satrajit

use the action "set transport headers", setting the value of the jca.file.FileName and jca.file.Directory (if needed) to whatever you want.
This action is available in a Route node only - I believe, not 100% sure

How to find the File name using the FTP Adapter

hi all,
how to find the File name using the FTP Adapter with BPEL.
Regards

Found the solution for this.
First In the mediator's routing rule use assign property $in.property.jca.file.FileName to $out.property.jca.file.FileName
In the BPEL's receive activity go to the properties tab and get the property to a BPEL variable. That should do it.
Thanks for the posts

Assign Logical file name for the physical file path through Program

Hi all,
I am having a physical file which is getting generated dynamically. It is having the date and time stamp in its name which is added at runtime.
Now I need to assign a logical file name for the physical file path through the program.
Is there any FM or any other method to assign the same.
Gaurav

I think it is not possible. becuase the date & time added at runtime. so if you check the table PATH you can find filename and their definitions

Dynamic file name of the attachment in sender mail adapter

Hi
I have configured a sender mail adapter which receives some attachments.
Right now the file name of the attachment is hardcoded to "MailAttachment-1" "MailAttachment-2" using the content-description from "AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean" module.
I want to set it to dynamic ie. instead of "MailAttachment-1"... i want it with real name of the attach.
please suggest a solution w/o the need to develop a custom adapter module.
Thanks!
Regards,
Mariano.

Thanks Prateek,
Now, i can see that the name of the original file is into the content type named as text/xml; name"name of the file.xml" when i send the email from outlook.
If i send it from hotmail, this is not happend.
Do you know why happend this?
If i always would have the original name inside the content type, my problem will be solved.

Dynamic File Name - Suppress the Substitue varible

Hi All,
I am doing the scenarios like File name at the recevier end would be dynamic for that i take an extra field NAME mapped with UDF which return the file name dynamically. It is working fine and doing good. But the problem here is , this field is the first field in my target structure so i am getting an empty line in the target file.
So My structure as follows:
MT_BNK01 1..1
NAME 1..1
RECORD 0..Unbound
 --Record_data 0..Unbound
So in the recever side i written as follows
Recordset Structure:: RECORD
RECORD.fieldSeparator = 'nl'
RECORD.endSeparator = 'nl'
But according to this weblog i can suppress the empty line but it is not working
/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12
means, NAME is also in the same level of RECORD in the Structure. So How can i pass the structure as ??
I tried to pass the RecordSet Structure: NAME,RECORD
and following parameters, it is not working
NAME.fieldFixedLength =0
NAME.fieldLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
Can you please suggest me what could be the reason. Tell me what information i need to pass the RecordSet Structure and attrubute information also.
One more thing like, My sender side it is not picking the empty lines. What could be the reason. I given fieldSeparator and endSeparator as 'nl'. So to catch the empty line what i need to do???
Thanks in Advance,
Best Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijaya,
This can be solved. Actually i had the same scenario where i was getting blank line for the header. Suppose Header was carrying the file name after i cut the value i would get a blank line in file.
So i added in content conversion parameter the following line
Header.endSeparator - '0'
then the first line was not blank.
Try this, i think your issue will be solved

Dynamic file name in receive FTP file adapter

Hi, All,
I have a ABAP proxy -> FTP scenorio. The sender side MT is like this:
<Sender_MT>
<FileName>abc.txt</FileName>
<Record>
 <TEXT>.......</TEXT>
 <TEXT>.......</TEXT>
 <TEXT> ......</TEXT>
</Record>
</Sender_MT>
I would like to output the data which are the values of the tags <TEXT> to a flat file with the file name of the value of <FileName>
I tried to use Variable Substitution in FTP CC. I set a val1 = payload:Sender_MT:1,FileName,1 . But I got an error says "Unknown structure 'ns0:Sender_MT' found in document'. I looked at the message monitoring. It shows payload <n0:Sender_MT>. not <ns0:Sender_MT>. I think that is why I got the error. Then I tried to use XSLT mapping. I set
<Receiver_MT>
<Record>
 <xsl:value-of select="ns0:Sender_MT/Record"/>
</Record>
</Receiver_MT>
But I get an error says "XMLParser: No data allowed here: (hex) 32, 64, 66(:main:, row:1, col:3): ".
Could anybody help me out? Thanks!
Jack
Edited by: Jack Mathew on Jun 4, 2009 6:22 PM

Dude this looks purely like a variable reference error. Have you mapped the the Filename field in the target too? UR XSLT mapping dosent seem to indicate that... run ur mapping test to check that..
Second ... if ur source structure is hierarchcially similar then var 1 should be -
payload:Receiver_MT:1,FileName,1

Dynamic file name inside the ZIP file

Hi Experts,
I have done proxy to file scenario, reciever side is the file ZIP file, i have done successfully done Zip file using adapter modules in Communication Channel.
The file name is hard coded like this.
contentType-----Transform.ContentType--
text/plain;charset="UTF-8";name="Billing.txt"
Is there any possible to do dynamic file name instead of hardcoded like add time stamp.
Kind Regards,
Praveen.

hi,
you can always do it using an adapter module like shown in my blog:

Need dynamic File name in the Schedule link for FTP Destination

Hello,
We are using Oracle BI Publisher Enterprise formerly XML Publisher
I am trying to drop a .csv file into an FTP location using the Schedule link for a report I have created. I need to run this program everyday. Is there a way I can have it drop a file with the date stamp? Currently when you hit Schedule and select FTP destination I need to specify the path of the file and I am not sure if it can accept dynamic parameters?
Can it?
I want to be able to specify "SomethingDate{sysdate}".csv
Cheers
Vijay

Hi Vijay
Im pretty sure it can not do that at the moment, not thru the scheduler UI.
What you could do thou, is set the report up as a bursting report - you're not going to split the report but the bursting engine can be fooled. With that method you can specify the file name to be used via sql

Dynamic file name creation using FTP adapter wired from a mediator

Hi All,
My Requirement is as follows....
Mediator is wired to Three FTP adapters to create three files.
File names are dynamic.
In the mediator those three routings, mappings and assignment for the directory and file name are being created.
But out of 3 files, 2 files are being created with the names mentioned during the FTP adapter configuration and the last one is being created
with the dynamic value.
Any help in this regard is highly thankful.
Thank you.
Srivatsasa.

Create a UDF in mapping taking counter from IDoc as input parameter
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String totalFilename = "AAAA_" + counter;
conf.put(key,totalFilename);
return totalFilename;
Map output of this UDF to Top node at target.
you will not be able to see the result in test tab of mapping but it works end to end

How to retreive the dynamic file name in the AAE configuration?

Hi Guys,
I have configured File to File with the integrated configuration and in the mapping i need to retreive the file name dynamically and i am unable to retreive it from the run time in AAE configuration. I am able to retreive with the normal configuration where integration engine is the run time.
I am using the code as below. Is it possible to retreive the file name dynamically in the AAE configuration? any help or suggestions would be appreciated.
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;
Thanks,
Srini

Hello Srinivas,
Brief Solution:
1. Using dynamic configuration, set the attribute value of payload dynamically to ASMA
2. Using AF module, write the value of ASMA in a variable
3. Using the variable substitution, set the receiver file name schema

How to fetch the Date column(or Month column) from the file name from the specified path in ODI 11g

Hi ALL,
Can any one help us regarding How to fecth the Date column(or month column) from the file name specified in the path in a generalized way .
For example :
file name is :subscribers (Cost) Sep13.csv is specified in the below path
E:\Accounting\documents\subscribers (Cost) Sep13.csv
here I need to fetch the "Sep13" as a Date column in the ODI 11g in the generalized way.
Can any one help us in this case as early as possible.

I would suggest using a piece of Jython code for this. Something like this...
import os
import os.path
filelist = os.listdir(E:\Accounting\documents\)
for file in filelist:
datestr = file[19:-4]
You'd need to work out what to do with datestr next... perhaps write it to a table or update an ODI variable with it.
Hope this is of some help.

Dynamic file name while sending to target FTP

Hi Experts,
we have a scenario wherein we are trying to implement dynamic file names.
The scenario is IDOC to file, and we need to append the data corresponding to all the IDOC triggered n a daily basis.
Its like the file abc_01will contain data for day 1(data of oll the IDOC in that day).For day to we need to dynamically name the file as abc_02 and so on.
But before naming the file as abc_02 we need to check if abc01 is present or not .If abc_01 is not present then for day 2 file we need to give the name as abc_01 and so on_.This condition is need to be checked becasue there may be the case that a file may not be picked by the script running at the target system.
can anyone let me know how to check whether file are correctly picked at target.
Regards,
srinivas.

Hi Srinivas,
I think you can achieve this with the next scenario:
- For getting all the Idocs info, you need a ccBPM to collect them, and then, download them to a file.
- To dynamically put the filename, you need to use Dynamic Configuration at the File Receiver Adapter (in the Message Mapping, you can write a UDF.)
- And to check if the daily file exists, you can also write an UDF and then decide the name of the output file.
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Juan

Xml file in dynamic file name in file receiver adapter

Hi,
I'm doing the dynamic file name in file receiver adapter. I have done as per instructed in /people/jayakrishnan.nair/blog/2005/06/20/dynamic-file-name-using-xi-30-sp12-part--i
All turned out okay. I have got the file name I require. Except that the file format is XML and I need to suppress the filename node occupied by the dynamic file name.
The content conversion mentioned in /people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12, does not seem to solve my problem. As it is only for file format other than the XML one, because we only do the content conversion if we want to "convert" the format of the content from XML to the other format.
Does anybody have the solution to my problem? thanks in advance

Thank you Raj for the direction
The way to do it is :
1. In ID, advanced tab, put a check on the adapter-specific message attributes - file name.
2. Put a "*" on the file name scheme
3. In IR, create a UDF to set up target file name :
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
// set up file name for receiver adapter
String SourceFileName = conf.get(key);
conf.put(key, TargetFileName);
return " ";
4. Map the above UDF to the header level of the target structure.

Idi

How to give a dynamic File Name for Receiver File/FTP Adapter.

Hi Experts,
    I have one scenario in which we are creating a flat file of IDOC which is coming from R/3 & sending it to FTP location. For this we have configured Receiver FTP adapter with File Name Scheme as "NT.out" & in File Consturction mode i have given as "Add Time Stamp".
    therfore while creating a file it is creating as NTyyyyMMdd-HHmmss-SSS.out
where as my requirement is only to to add Time & not the Date. (NThhmmss.out)
    How to do this ?
    for your info we are using ABAP Mapping.
    Pl help me
Regards,
Umesh

Hi Umesh,
      Add one more field to your target structure for your file name and populate that field as per your requirement like NTyyyyMMdd.out. In receiver communication channel use Variable subtiution option and give the refrence of Payload and file construction mode set as create.
And refer the below weblogs for Variable Subtiutuion File Name Scheme
/people/jayakrishnan.nair/blog/2005/06/20/dynamic-file-name-using-xi-30-sp12-part--i - Dynamic File Name Part 1
/people/jayakrishnan.nair/blog/2005/06/28/dynamic-file-namexslt-mapping-with-java-enhancement-using-xi-30-sp12-part-ii - Dynamic File Name Part 2
Hope this way would be solve u r problem.
