Content Conversion in sender channel

Hi,
I am having file to proxy scenario. Input file is a .txt file, which is having this type of data
111111 0000000 AAAAAAAA BBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBBB
222222222222222 CCCCCCCCCCCC 1111111111111111111112222
I want to pick this file from FTP and put all the content of txt file in one single field of data type.What content conversion parameters needs to be set in this case.
Thanks.

Hi Pothana,
Thanks for your efforts.I have one doubt here.As you said that we can do this in mapping.but if I want to try this in mapping, the input payload tags must have the spaces at the start of the tag.But my problem is I am not able to read that spaces from text file itself.e.g. if my i/p txt file is
AAAAA BBBBBBBBBBBB
CCCCCCCCCCCC DDDDDD
1111111111111111 22222
the i/p payload in moni looks like this
<Record>
<Content>AAAAA BBBBBBBBBBBB</Content>
</Record>
<Record>
<Content>CCCCCCCCCCCC DDDDDD</Content>
</Record>
<Record>
<Content>1111111111111111 22222</Content>
</Record>
It ignores that line gap. neither its giving me a empty content tag for each line gap, nor it is appending the spaces at the start of second and third tag value.
Please provide your inputs.
Thanks.

File Content Conversion for Sender Channel

Hi Experts,
      We are using SAP - PI 7.11 system. We have a scenario where we wld be getting 7-8 records and the record structure repeats n no.of times in a flat-file and while converting the Flat -File data into XML data we are facing an issue , explained below with an example :
HEADER : KeyField , f2, f3, f4, f5, f6, f7, f8
RECORD1 : f1, f2, KeyField , f3, f4, f5, f6, f7 , f8
RECORD2 : f1, f2, f3, f4, KeyField, f5, f6, f7, f8
TRAILER : keyField, f1, f2, f3, f4,f5, f6, f7, f8.
Its a fixed length flat - flie. Now the problem is : we have KeyField Value for RECORD1 as '0' and when the f3 of TRAILER is '0' the record is getting formed as RECORD1 instead TRAILER even i get proper keyField value for TRAILER RECORD. Could you please tell me why its happenning so ? And please provide the solution for this. I have used all the parameters like : fieldNames, fieldfixedLengths, keyFieldValue, endSeparator and ignoreRecordsetname and lastFieldOptional and fromConfiguration.
But still i am not able to get the proper XML out of this flat - file. Could you please suggest any solution for this asap.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Lakshman

Most of the configuration seems fine,
Just validate your configuration against below configuration, which is working fine for me,
Recordset Structure : HEADER, 1, RECORD1, ,RECORD2,,TRAILER,1
Recordset Sequence : Ascending
Recordsets per message : *
Key Field Name : recid
Key Field type : string
HEADER.fieldFixedLengths     *********************
HEADER.endSeparator     'nl'
HEADER.fieldNames     ************************
HEADER.keyFieldValue     01
HEADER.keyFieldlnStructure     add
HEADER.lastFieldsOptional     YES

Content Conversion in receiver channel

Hi all,
I have a proxy to FTP scenario with no mapping involved.Over proxy communication PI is receiving the data, I am creating the CSV file using content conversion in receiver channel and placing the file at FTP.
The file name is coming in one of the field of the input xml,I am using variable substitution and setting the file name from that particular field value.But as I don't want that node and file name element in my output file content, please guide me what parameters can I set in my content conversion to remove the FileNode from o/p csv file.
The sample input xml is
<MT>
<Record>
<Field1>1</Filed1>
<Field2>2</Filed2>
</Record>
<Record>
<Field1>3</Filed1>
<Field2>4</Filed2>
</Record>
<FileNode>
<FileName>InutFile</FileName>
</FileNode>
</MT>
I want output xml to be like
1,2
3,4
I have followed this blog /people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12 to cut the FileNode, but it gives an error in cc parameters.
In my actual i/p payload,the Record is 0..unbounded and there are 50 sub elements inside Record element.
Please provide your inputs.
Thanks,
Ruchi

Hi Ruchi,
Change your structure like this.
MT>
<Record>
<Field1>1</Filed1>
<Field2>2</Filed2>
</Record>
<Record>
<Field1>3</Filed1>
<Field2>4</Filed2>
</Record>
<FileNode>
<FileName>InutFile</FileName>
</FileNode>
</MT>
Dont put the filenode under Record.
Also Add the below parameters.
FileNode.fieldSeparator     '0'
FileNode.endSeparator     '0'
FileNode.fieldFixedLengths     0
FileNode.fixedLengthTooShortHandling     Cut
FileNode.fieldNames     FileName
Now use the same parameter mentioned in the blog .Your problem will be resolved.

Content conversion in sender adapter.

Hi,
I have a problem with the content conversion in sender adapter.
I need only process the csv file with the exact number of columns containing the structure, if the csv file contains more o less columns in the csv file, I want that this files are not relayed by the adapter and remain on the server.
Thank you very much for your help.

@ Hareen
This can be achieved at mapping level. You need to check the number of columns that are comming in the file using Count function. If the number of count is equal to the value specified then will process the message else raises a mapping exception.
Are you talking about "count" function in the message mapping? that function won't count the number of fields / columns, but would count the number of occurrence of a particular field.

Hi !!
The best way to debug would be to add TRACE statements in your mappigs. In both Graphical and java Mapping.
Trace out the entire output of java mapping and see if this is the input that the next mapping expects.
For trace , http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/c8/98e7d5c1620642973565ea3dd319d1/content.htm

Regarding file content conversion in Sender File channel

Hi all,
In one of my requirement, one file contains several details records as given below,
101,india,1001,albert,517193
101,india,1002,hilbert,517193
101,india,1003,robert,517193
102,nepal,1004,kiran,9234334
102,nepal,1008,kiran,9234334
102,nepal,1003,kiran,9234334
103,nepal,1004,kiran,9234334
103,nepal,1008,kiran,9234334
103,nepal,1003,kiran,9234334
i want to send all the records which starts with 101 to one function module and all records which starts with 102 to another function module and all records which start with 103 to some other function module. In my sender channel i am planning to use
101, 102, 103 as key field values to read them into 3 different structures.
like Recordsset structure = detail1,, detail2,,detail3,*.
Details1.keyfieldvalue = 101
Details2.keyfieldvalue = 102
Details3.keyfieldvalue = 103
Will this idea work out??
Thanks,
Balu

Hi Balu,
Yes u r correct, u can access the records by setting the key field value as u mentioned.
But other way is also by,
access the all records as similar one, so no key field value.
the whole record as a single element.In the mapping u have a string function called StartsWith.
In mapping u can specify if the incoming record starts with 101 then map it to FM1(Fumction Module 1).
If the record starts with 102 map it to FM2......
This will be very simpler i feel...
If i am nt clear pl do post the problem in detail.

Hi,
For file content convertion if there are fixed lenth then no need to give the feildseperator,just give the fixed lenths for all the feild in FCC.
check below links for FCC

Supress Column Heading - File Content Conversion in Sender Adapter

Hi,
Let me give a more clear picture about my scenario. I need to convert CSV File to XML output:-
My source file has column heading and values. The sample data is mentioned hereunder:-
PERNR;KID;PNALT;NACHN;NAME2;VORNA
;1200;1200;Angus
I have created a data type as under:-
DT_LegacyEmployee (Category - Complex Type)
     Employees (Category - Element, Occurence - 1)
          Header (Category - Element, Occurence - 0...1)
               PERNR_H
               KID_H
               PNALT_H
               NACHN_H
               NAME2_H
               VORNA_H
          Employee (Categroy - Element, Type - DT_LegacyEmployee_Row, Occurence - 0...unbounded)
               PERNR
               KID
               PNALT
               NACHN
               NAME2
               VORNA
The file conversion parameters in the file sender adapter are mentioned hereunder:-
Document Name - MT_LegacyEmployee
Document Namespace - http://abc.com/xi
Recordset Name - Employees
Rescordset Structure - Header,1,Employee,*
Recordsets per Message - 1
Key Field Type - String (Case Sensitive)
Employee.fieldSeparator - ;
Employee.endSeparator - 'nl'
Employee.fieldNames - PERNR,KID,PNALT,NACHN,NAME2,VORNA
I dont' have a key field value. How do we remove the header and show only the values in the xml output. I have searched the forum topics as well checked many blogs related to file content conversion, but nothing helped. Kindly advice how to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Praveen

Hi Praveen,
Change your File Adapter as below
Document Name - MT_LegacyEmployee
Document Namespace - http://abc.com/xi
Recordset Name - Employees
Rescordset Structure - Employee,*
Recordsets per Message - 1
Key Field Type - String (Case Sensitive)
Employee.fieldSeparator - ;
Employee.endSeparator - 'nl'
Employee.fieldNames - PERNR,KID,PNALT,NACHN,NAME2,VORNA
There is no need for the Header required in the data type.
DT_LegacyEmployee (Category - Complex Type)
Employees (Category - Element, Occurence - 1)
Employee (Categroy - Element, Type - DT_LegacyEmployee_Row, Occurence - 0...unbounded)
PERNR
KID
PNALT
NACHN
NAME2
VORNA
Now the trick is in the mapping program
Lets assume your mapping looks like
MT_LegacyEmployee ---> MT_TargetEmployee
- Employees ---> Records
   - Employee ---> Record
     - PERNR ---> TargetPERNR
     - .. so on
When you do a mapping from Employee ---> Record apply the following logic.
(PERNR)--->
             (TestEquals =) --->(NOT)--->
(Constant) --->                                (IF)
(PERNR)                       (IF Without Else) ---> (Record)
                                               (THEN)
                            (Employee)--->
When doing this make sure RightClick on PERNR and Select Context ---> Employees.
By default context would be from Employee and it will give you an error of XSD format. So make sure you are changing the context.

Content conversion in Sender JMS Adapter

Hi,
Scenario is file to IDoc
My source file is   ' ; ' separated file coming from MQ via JMS adapter. now I need to convert this to XI.
Source DT looks like

TRAILER(Occurance 1)
     ISOCURCD
     TRANKODE
      TRANCOUNT
According to How to use content conversion in JMS guide from SDN i have configured the content conversion parameters in the module of JMS sender adapter.
In the processing sequence given the module name as localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean and module Key as Plain2XML.
And in module configuration

Similarily for Detail and Trailer records as well.
But when I run the scenario, the file is being picked up but I am not getting any payload into the inbound message.
Can you please help me where I have configured wrongly. And one more thing will this configuration help for ; separated file .
Thanks & Regards,
Kumar

File Content Conversion in Sender Adapater

Hi Folks ,
I am doing a file 2 file scneario using content conversion at both end
My i/p and o/p is file is tab delimited
My source xml structure is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:file_sender_mt xmlns:ns0="urn:filetofiledemo">
   <recordset>
      <data1>
         <keyfield/>
         <age1/>
      </data1>
      <data>
         <name/>
         <keyfield/>
         <age/>
         <loc>
            <keyfield/>
         </loc>
      </data>
   </recordset>
</ns0:file_sender_mt>
Data and location have the mapping 1.. unbounded
while data1 has the mapping 1.1
When I am trying to read it as a tab delimited flat file.
These are the parameters that i have set
Document Name file_sender_mt
Document Namespace urn:filetofiledemo
Recordset Name recordset
Recordset Structure data1,1,data, ,loc,
Key Field Name keyfield
data1.fieldNames keyfield,age1
ignoreRecordsetName true
recordset.fieldSeparator '0'
data1.fieldSeparator '0x09'
data1.keyFieldValue 01
data1.endSeparator '0'
data.beginSeparator '0x09'
data.fieldSeparator '0x09'
data.fieldNames name,keyfield,age
data.keyFieldValue 02
loc.fieldSeparator '0x09'
loc.beginSeparator '0x09'
loc.endSeparator '0'
loc.keyFieldValue 03
loc.fieldNames keyfield
My file is getting picked up . I dont see any message in message monitoring and neither anything in moni .
No error in adapater
but the file is not getting created .
if i change the message protocol to file and send t above xml file . the scneario works fine
any reasons for the above behaviour
Thanks
Amit

I have found you cant use nested element in sender adapater
so i have chnage my source structure to
Now if i give my i/p file as
01 age1
02 25 03
file is getting pciked up
bt if i give it as
01 age1 02 25 03
which is the structure i expect my i/p file it is failing to read with the error
Error: Conversion of complete file content to XML format failed around position 0: Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 1 according to structure 'data1':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration: more elements in file csv structure than field names specified!
Does The special character ´0´ is not a separator character.
not work for sender adapater bcoz in reciever i am able to get o/p in one line and tab delimited
any idea
and since i have given my keyfield as the second field in data
02 would come at the second palce
Thanks

Key field values for file content conversion at sender communicationchannel

Hi all,
I am working on scenario File to Idoc.In this scenario at the sender side we configure the file content conversion for .CSV file.
In the flat file i am having more than one orders, XI will pick the file and creates a separate Idoc for each sales order at r/3.
We have similar fields "Order Item Number" both header and item.
If we got '00000' on the Header item then it should create a new idoc at the r/3 side other wise it will create line item.
Order item number will be 00000 for header but it will differ from order item to item.
source structure
Order Header
Order type
Sold-to-code
PO number
Order item number
Order date
AdresName1
AdresName2
Street and House number
Postal Code
City
Country Code
Filler
Order Item
Order type
Sold-to-code
PO number
Order item number
Order date
Product code
Order quantity
Item text
Filler
Now I have some questions....
I don't have standard filed values to give the key fileds at source structure.
I need to create the Idoc at r/3 system for each individual record.
Is it possible to create new idoc with out using the Key filed value?
If it is possible then how can i proceed with fcc?
please give me your valuable suggestions
Best Regards,
satya

Hi,
Just check the Content Conversion Parameters- Recordset Structure.
If you have filled in this parameter with
Header,1,Item,1
then change it to
Header,1,Item,3
