Content Conversion with Substructures

Question

I'm very new at all of this, and I have a bit of a complex mapping.  In an attempt to make it a little tidier, I made several substructures when I set up the data type.
For example, most of the lines start with a 'record id' made up of 4 fields.  So I created a structure with those 4 fields, and then another structure with the rest of those fields, and then put both structures together to define the line.
I thought I was making things cleaner, but when I got to the file content conversion, I realized I'd just made a big mess.
Here is a somewhat simplified example of my structure, after it comes out of the mapping.
<EmployeeData01>
<RecordID>
  <RecordType>01</RecordType>
  <SSN>1234-56-7890</SSN>
  <EmployeeID></EmployeeID>
</RecordID>
<Employee>
  <FirstName>Mickey</FirstName>
  <MiddleName>M</MiddleName><LastName>Mouse</LastName>
  <Prefix>Sir</Prefix>
  <Title>Jr</Title>
  <Gender>M</Gender>
</Employee>
</EmployeeData01>
Originally I tried just using the employeedata01, and that gets me an error in the adapter monitor about the RecordID structure not being defined.
Then I tried not defining employeedata01 and instead defining RecordID and Employee.  That works, sort of.  But it puts the RecordID segment and the Employee Segment on seperate lines.
Is there a way to do this with the structure I have?   I know I can solve it by going back and completely rewriting my structure, but I'd really rather not have to do that.
Thanks for any help at all.

Answer 1

Abhy,
I am using content conversion already.  I'm trying to figure out how to configure the content conversion.
Those blogs are not so useful, because they are all about sender adapters, and this is a receiver adapter.
The sender is ABAP Proxy, the receiver is a file adapter.
The mapping works fine, and maps the document in XML exactly how I want it mapped.
My problem is getting the file adapter configured properly to receive XML and write it out the way that I need it written.
Here are the things I've tried:
#1
Recordset Structure: EmployeeData01
Parameters:  
EmployeeData01.fieldFixedLengths with all the individual field lengths for the whole record
Result:  Error in the adapter monitor
Error: Message processing failed: Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure 'RecordID' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
#2
Recordset Structure: Employee,RecordID
Parameters:  
RecordID.fieldFixedLengths - with lengths for the record id fields
Employee.fieldFixedLengths - with lengths for the rest of the fields
Result:  Mapping works, but prints out the record id section and the employee section on seperate lines, instead of one line
What I need to know is how to set up the file content conversion parameters in order to make the entire employeedata01 (recordid + employee) print out on one line
Does this help clarify my question?
