Conversion of EDI File format to IDOC format

We have a file in u201C.ediu201D format. We could not process this file with RSEINB00 ( IDoc inbound processing using file ) program.
1-) Could we directly do our process with this u201C.ediu201D file ? Or do we have to convert this u201C.ediu201D file to IDOC format?

If it's EDI format file (Ex: EDIFACT, X12 ...etc), we should convert the file to IDOc file by using mapping in subsystems like Gentran or TLe..etc. Conversion from edi format to idoc format will not be done in SAP.

Creating a flat file in the IDOC format

Hi everybody,
Need help.....urgently. Can somebody please tell me how to create a flat file in the IDOC format? I am creating a bill of lading/Documentary payments (EDI 858) and can't figure out a way to write the data generate through the report in a flat file in IDOC format. My deadline is right around the corner and I need help.
Thanks,
M

Hi Minal,
I still don't understand your question.
So, you have a report which selects data and puts it into an internal table. This part looks fine.
You want to create a flat file? Ok, to create a flat file on the application server then use the commands OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER, and CLOSE DATASET. To create a flat file on the presentation server then use the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD (or the GUI class, I forgets its name for the moment).
In both cases you should build up an internal table which has the exact structure required for your (EDIFACT?) EDI message, and then use the appropriate method to write the file.
If the following steps are manual then there is nothing more for you to do.
I don't see any need to use Idoc technology, or make any reference to it in your solution.
I hope that helps. If not, please be more specific when asking your questions.

X12 00502-204 validate instance failure when EDI file is in readable format in Visual Studio

Hi, I have a n X12 00502- 940 edifile, when all data are on the same line, Visual studio validates
ST*204*7629~B2**XXXX**159771**PP~.......N4G*L*43920*900**E*864~SE*33*7629~
when I try to make the file in a readable format, each segment on line by hiting enter after each "~", and try to validate
as follows
ST*204*7629~
B2**XXXX**159771**PP~
B2A*00*LT~
SE*33*7629~
I get "Invalid Segment Terminator" or many segment level errors, I have always "~" in the "segment separator (106th char of iSA) checked in the validate instance dialog box. In Segment separator suffixe, I tried all, None, CR,
LR & CRLF but no way
I also generated an instance and made it readble, I get the exact same behavior
Thanks in advance

Covert it to readable format only for your purpose. Leave the system to read it based on segment separator only.

Convert flat file to Idoc format

Due to some security reasons , the ALE scenario for material master is not allowed directly between 2 SAP systems
So the SAP system A is sending a flat file (not in Idoc format)
From SAP system B , we need to do an Inbound process to post the Idocs with following rough steps
1) Flat file upload
2) Flat file -> Idoc format conversion (EDI subsystem is not existing in this scenario and so this step has to be done within SAP)
3) Idoc processing
Even though this scenario can be accomplished without using Idocs ,
for better monitoring and reprocessing options it is required that Idocs need to be used.
Please explain the detailed steps for the above scenario

Hi,
This sounds very much lie complicating things unnecessary...Are this 2 SAP systems of the same company ?
Why would using IDOCS be more insecure then using flat files ?
If the purpose is to have a manual check before upload, you can achieve the same with IDOCS.
Please add some background to the process,
regards
Dirk

ex:- PR,FH,H1,W6,PT,AM,N1,N3,N4......
In Comm channel the FCC parameters
i need to go for fieldFixedLengths?
Thanks&Regards

Hi.
if you need to convert an EDI to XML you need to use an Adapter specific (e.g Seeburger) because PI doesn't support EDI files.
Also if you use a FCC , this configuration is for two level Header and Detail.
Check this.

IDOC to FTP keeping IDOC format

I am trying to ftp an IDOC to another server without it converting to XML format. I know there is a global setting to not convert for the IDOC adapter, but I do have 5 other scenarios that need the XML conversion. Is there a way to have a scenario that goes like the below...
IDOC -> XI -> FTP
and keep the actaul file in the IDOC format?
Thanks
Skip Ford

Hi,
have a look at this weblog to understand one
of the approaches:
/people/alessandro.guarneri/blog/2006/03/05/managing-bulky-flat-messages-with-sap-xi-tunneling-once-again--updated
the second approach is to use module IDX_XML_TO_IDOC
as described here:
https://websmp108.sap-ag.de/~sapdownload/011000358700001795162005E/HowToIDocXMLToFlat.pdf
these two should give you a good starting point:)

Error: Conversion of complete file content of 'filename here' to XML format

"Error: Conversion of complete file content of 'filename here' to XML format failed"
We process inbound files every hour, we now got this message we have never seen. But every hour, for three hours, one in many files that are processed get this error. But the file ends with success, and after spot checking the file looks like it made it into SAP.
What is happening? Anybody know?
Thank-You.

did u see any adapter with red button?
i m pretty sure there will some sender adapter with red button(meaning error)
also whatever message failed,can u copy that payload from sxmb_moni and test the message mapping under test tab in IR
thanx

RFC - - Flat File (IDOC Format)

Hi,
I need flat file in IDOC(INVOIC02) format from the AR invoice in SAP R/3. We don't want to create IDOC's in SAP R/3. So We need to get the data from R/3 via RFC with EDIDC & EDIDD structures and map it to IDOC in XI. The second mapping would be from IDOC to Flat file.
Did anybody has done the mapping from EDIDD table to IDOC's? If so can you please share some mapping screen shots.
Thanks.
Srini

Hi,
As I have understood your scenario, you plan to send data from R3 in non-IDOC format, probably through RFC. This could be ABAP Proxy as well. And on receiver end, you need a flat structure file accepting this data.
For this case, you dont need two mappings as you mentioned. You could treat this as RFC - File scenario or Proxy - File scenario and perform the mapping accordingly.
Let me know if I have misunderstood your problem or if you need more elaboration on solution.
Thanks,
Bhavish

FM to create a flat file in given IDOC type format

Hi,
I need to create a flat file having IDOC format.
I have data in some other source file.
Which function module can be used for the same?
Could you pls provide some sample code?
Appreciate the help.
Thanks.
-Shreyas

My Exact requirement is:
I have some data in a source file.
Now I want to create a flat file while which should be in a standard IDOC format(WMMBID02) so that I can process it later using IDOC processing say EDI_DATA_INCOMING or any appropriate FM which will process IDOC later.
I dont want IDOC to be created in the system right now. I just need to reformat my source file into a standard IDOC format flat file.

EDI File formats EANCOM2002 and UN 96A are same??

Hello Evyone,
The partner system wants the DESADV EDI file in EANCOM2002 format.
Iam having the XSD's for for the following formats.
DESADV_UN_D96A
DESADV_UN_D97A
DESADV_UN_D97B
DESADV_UN_D99B.
Does any of the above formats is equal to EANCOM2002??
PS: If i use any of the above XSD and the seeburger mapping name as "See_X2E_DESADV_UN_D96A".
Will it reach to partner system in EANCOM2002 format.
Let me know if it works??
Thanks & Regards
Seema.

Hi chirag,
I too observe the same.
Now im doing the development by using File adapter.
So i can finish off the development by using UN96A..
But when it goes live..we are going to replace it with AS2 adpter. Iam worrying of it may fail at the partner system because of wrong format??
Any idea any impact will happen??
Regards
Seema.

Conversion of white spaced flat file to oracle table format

hello friends
I have found out that SQL*Loader can load data from .txt format into table format in oracle.
Please if anynone can provide me with the syntax for conversion of white spaced data in text format would be of great help

The utilities guide provides some sample cases.
Just change the field terminator and adjust the field definitions

You can use Sql*Loader (sqlldr) :
