Converting Sender File as attachment using PayloadSwapBean module

Hi Expert,
I have a scenario where I have to pick up a file from PI & send it to another PI server as an attachement using XI Adapter.
I went through SDN & found several messages describing configuration for attachement for mail & SOAP adapter.
I attached PayloadSwapBean in my sender File channel & passed keyname as Conent-Disposition & keyValue as attachment however I dont see file being converted as an attachment in SXMB_MONI. It still shows it as main payload.
Please help me on how to convert a sender file payload into attachement. I would like to keep attachment name same as file name. Let me know how we can do that. I also noticed that on receiver XI adapter (which I would be using to send data to next PI system), you can't attach modules. Let me know if there is some other standard way of achieving this requirement.
Thanks
Regards
Sushil

Hi Stefan,
No, I dont see dynamic configuration values in second PI system. I am able to see them in first system.
Hi Amol,
Do you see dynamic configuration in second PI? I am still referring ASMA in second PI system as file parameters? Should it be HTTP header? (How are you referring ASMA in second PI). Below is my code which give me null at run time.
DynamicConfiguration dCon =(DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey dKey = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
String FileDirectory = dCon.get(dKey);
return FileDirectory;

Sending File as attachment using Mail adapter with naming convention

Dear All,
I am working on a scenario in which my sender file adapter is sending one file named 'ABC.ok' in one of the folders in application server. I have to send the same file with the same name to one of the folders at FTP and also to my customer at his email id.
I have used File Content onversion at the receiver side and has selected adapter specific attributes due to which the required file is getting generated at FTP folder with the same name as that of the source. But how to send the same file using the mail adapter by keeping same name as "ABC.ok". Kindly guide me out in this.
Regards,
NJ

what you need to do:
1) Select ASMA in Sender and receiver File CC...already done
2) Using the Dynamic Config UDF get the sender file name in the field Content-Type...for this you need to have a return statement in your UDF
3) now before pushing this file name to the Content-Type you have to append (concat)the actual type of the file content (xml, txt)
so your entire Content-Type node will have something like text/plain; name="abc.ok"
SAP Note has reference on how to do this:

Send files as attachment with BCS-methods

Hi,
I want to load file(s) from application server
and send it as attachment per mail.
In 4.6c I had a program with fm 'SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1'
that worked fine. But not any longer in 7.01.
So i tried it with the new method of BCS*
But it worked not fully correct.
German mutations are not correct.
and e.g. in excel ther is a message "too many columns" although there're only 130 col.
In 4.6 I opend the data file(s) in binary mode and saved it to solix
Which addition I must choose to the open-command?
And what I have to note by the converting method cl_bcs_convert=>string_to_solix?
Do you know a sample program to my problem ?
In BCS_EXAMPLE* I did not found anyone
thanks
Andreas

Send file as attachment

Hi,
I recently switch from a complete Windows envrionment to a Mac one. I use a MacBook air with Mac OS X Lion.
I recently installed Office for Mac 2011 to use Outlook 2011 with my Exchange. I changed the setting in the Mail app and Outlook to use my Outlook as default mail client.
There's still something I need to correct. When I "right-click" a file and select send file as attachment, it opens the Mail App to send it. I don't know how to completely switch to Outlook. I don't care about not using mail app at all.
I've tried a couple of things, like deleting com.apple.LaunchServices.plist but I still have the same issue.
Any suggestions ?
Thanks

That service is hard-coded to Mail and can't be changed through any user setting. Try this workaround:
http://www.officeformachelp.com/2010/11/create-a-service-to-attach-files-to-a-ne w-outlook-for-mac-mail-message/
If Library in Automator does not list Microsoft Outlook, the "Create New Outlook Mail Message" action should be listed in the second pane (along with all the other Microsoft application actions).

local directory - path of your local file
remote file - your target file name
remote directory - where it has to be stored
Hope this is useful for you

How can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

how can I convert .pdf file to .doc using the free adobe reader app? when I try to convert the .pdf file it asks me to sign in. when I click on "sign in", I am taken to a service subscription page. So, no free conversions using free adobe reader app?

As has been mentioned Adobe Reader cannot export PDF page content. Nor can it create PDF or manipulate PDF page content.
What you can do is use one of Adobe's online subscription services. Two provide for PDF to Word export.
There's ExportPDF and PDF Pack.
Be well...

Converting .XSL file to RFC using File Adapter

Hi,
I need to convert .xsl file using XI and send an RFC. I am not sure how to do that. Do i need to write some JAVA API's for the same. Is File adapter capable of converting .xsl files.
Any pointers are most welcome.
Thanks in Advance
Regards,
Vikas

HI,
try in the following ways
Write a simple XSLT mapping or java mapping to change the value of the attribute "encoding" to "ISO-8859-1" in the output XML of message mapping . Include this XSLT or Java map as the second mapping step in your interface mapping.
An example of the XSL code might be as follow:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method='xml' encoding='ISO-8859-1' />
<xsl:template match="/">
<xsl:copy-of select="*" />
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

FTP Sender - file as attachment

Hi all,
I need to build a scenario where I have two files that needs to be picked up from ftp location.
One file needs to be attached as binary document to the second file (xml).
How can I achieve this?
We are using SAP PI 7.31.
Thanks in advance!

Hi Tim,
Option1: You can consider the files as single zip file and then use payloadzipbean to unzip them in sender file adapter.
Option2: You can write an adapter module with similar functionality of "Specifying Additional Files"

Want to send PDF as attachement using Java Mail

HI,
I am using Java mail API for sending PDF as attachment. Here is my sample code
messageBodyPart = new MimeBodyPart();
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler("String data for PDF using iText", "text/plain" ));
I am generating String for PDF file using iTEXT but I am unable to find out mimetype for passing into DataHandler as second paramete.
Any idea?
Thanks
Shailesh

Don't convert the data to String. It isn't text so
you'll damage the binary content by doing that. In
the "demos" directory of your JavaMail download
you'll find a ByteArrayDataSource class you can use
instead of a FileDataSource. Yes, this worked for me. I create the pdf in memory as as StringBuffer and I just changed the code from
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(pdf.toString(), "application/pdf"));
to
messageBodyPart.setDataHandler(new DataHandler(new ByteArrayDataSource(pdf.toString(), "application/pdf")));
and it worked.
Thanks a lot for your help,
Dennis

How to convert xml file to xsl using java

Hi all,
I have an XML file with which i need to convert(transform) it to an xsl file using java.
I am new to converting xml file to xslt.Please send me if u have code .
Thanks in advance
regards
Ram

You seem to be asking the wrong question. An XSL file can be used to transform an XML file, but transforming an XML into an XSL does not make sense. The API for running XSL transforms on the Java platform is described here:

Issue with the sender file interfaces when using UTF-8 files

Hello experts,
     We are having number of File to SAP interface scenarios in our business process. In the past, we are having the files coming to us in ASCII text format. Recently, because of the business process change(to handle multiple languages like Chinese), we are getting now the same files in UTF-8 format. So, we have changed the attribute File Type in the sender communication channel from Binary to Text and used encoding format as UTF-8.
Now, when we see the processed files in PI, we are missing the Header record in the message. For example, we have the PO interface in the following format:
Identifier     Information
H     PO header information
I     PO Item information
I     PO Item information
Once the file adapter picks this format kind of file and when we see the XML message in PI, it is just having only two Items information. The header part is not coming to PI at all and the message is trying to get processed inside SAP and therefore interface is failing.
Additional observations made:
u2022     We have checked the Document Offset field value too; it is initial for the interface.
u2022     We added an empty line in the UTF-8 text file, it worked fine. But, this is not an ideal solution for us, because the system which generates these files, canu2019t handle it.
   Does any one has observed this kind of problem before? If so, can you please help me ...
Thanks,
Adithya K

Thanks for all the information. Currently i've tried to use both modules (TextCodepageConversionBean and XMLAnonymizerBean) in my Sender File Adapter, but for now without any result...
To describe the situation: i am using flatfiles which i am fetched from the file system (NFS) by the Sender File Adapter. To translate the characters to the XML strucutre, the File Content Conversion protocol is been used.
The content conversion defines the structure base on the first two characters on each row in the flat file. This worked fine till one of our suppliers is delivering BOM characters like "EF BB BF" in the beginning of the file.The content conversion is not able to recognize my header characters in this situation, which will normally start with "01".
Any suggestions?
