Doubt regarding File Content Conversion. File- RFC

Hi Experts,
My scenario is File -> XI -> RFC,
I am able to update the records in R3 when i get a fixed length file with a single record.
RFC can process one record at a time (its 1 to 1 , its not 1 to unbounded),
May i know what are the changes to be done in the scenario to implement this existing interface to process a fixed length file contains a multiple records.
How to get RFC return messages when ever there is return message , as this is not the synchronous scenario.
Please help me out.
Thanks

HI,
First you need to create a structure [SE12]
Once that is done, open the function module [SE37] and select the tab [Table].
Add a new parameter and for the Associated Type use the structure that you have just created.
Then reimport the RFC in XI.
I hope it helps.
Now, to make the RFC return messages you shall create a BPM.
Notice that this will be a Async -> Sync -> Async interface...
Basically your bpm steps will be like this:
Receive,
Transform if needed,
Syncronously Send and receive response,
Transform again if needed,
Send Asynchronously.
Take a look at the image in the link to have a better idea on the BPM setup

(please, award points if usefull )

Doubt regarding Sender adapter file content conversion to RFC

Hi Experts,
Below is the my Source and Target XML structure ( i have creaated source structure same as target RFC structure), This scenario is working fine when i give XML file as input. File -> XI -> RFC , xml file is able to update the information in R3.
How should i configure sender file adapter for file content conversion for above structure(in this case input is fixed lenth text), and i could able to change source structure according to our req, without changing target RFC strucuture.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber xmlns:ns0="urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32">
   <COMMIT_I>X</COMMIT_I>
   <IDENTIFICATION>
      <STUDENT>6500001191</STUDENT>
      <ID_TYPE>FS0030</ID_TYPE>
      <ID_NUMBER>testxml</ID_NUMBER>
      <VALID_FROM>20070421</VALID_FROM>
      <VALID_TO>20091231</VALID_TO>
   </IDENTIFICATION>
</ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber>
I have configured sender file adapter with FCC like :
Document name as: MT_HSA_IDNumber
Document name space as: urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32
Record structure as: COMMIT_I,1,IDENTIFICATION,1
COMMIT_I.fieldNames : COMMIT_I
COMMIT_I.fieldFixedlengths: 1
IDENTIFICATION.fieldNames: STUDENT,ID_TYPE,ID_NUMBER,VALID_FROM,VALID_TO
IDENTIFICATION.fieldFixedlengths: 12,6,60,8,8
i am getting error like this: even when i change source structure like below metioned:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber xmlns:ns0="urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32">
   <COMMIT>
      <COMMIT_I>X</COMMIT_I>
   </COMMIT>
   <IDENTIFICATION>
      <STUDENT>6500001191</STUDENT>
      <ID_TYPE>FS0030</ID_TYPE>
      <ID_NUMBER>idnumber1</ID_NUMBER>
      <VALID_FROM>20070421</VALID_FROM>
      <VALID_TO>20091231</VALID_TO>
   </IDENTIFICATION>
</ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber>
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'COMMIT_I.fieldFixedLengths' or 'COMMIT_I.fieldSeparator' is missing Consistency check: no. of arguments in 'COMMIT_I.fieldFixedLength' does not match 'COMMIT_I.fieldNames' (0 <> 1)
Please help me out
thanks
dhanush

Hi Dhanush,
Try giving the Sender FCC this way for the source structure you have mentioned above.
Record structure as: COMMIT,1,IDENTIFICATION,1
COMMIT.fieldNames : COMMIT_I
COMMIT.fieldFixedlengths: 1
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,
Induja

Skip field in file content conversion (file adapter)

hy guys,
I have a log file and want to convert it into xml. that works fine.
the problem is: can I skip some fields that I do not need in the xml with file content conversion
the fields I want to skip are the same in every record of the log file.
thanks.

Ralf,
You can only ignore lines in the begiining of the file using Document Offset option.
If you have the unwanted field in the end of the record and you are in SPS12 (PI 7.0), you can use the option additionalLasstFields in FCC parameters. have a look into the blog /people/sukumar.natarajan/blog/2007/06/12/content-conversion-in-sender-file-adapter--2-new-useful-parameters
Easier, is to ignore those fields in mapping.
Also, you can try to remove those fields using a shell script which can be called from the File adapter.

Problem in file content conversion, file 2 xml scenario

Hi,
Could some one help me in finding out the error in my file to xml scenario, please do consider the following things what I did for this scenario.
1.My sender file structure is flat file with , seperated 4 fields. On receiver end expecting xml file.
2.Did file content conversion at sender file adapter and given parameters as follows.
     Document name             : MT_FileInput
     DocumentnameSpace     : http://file/praveenworkshop
     Recordset Name             : DT_Record
     Recordset Structure        : DT_Row,*
     KeyfieldType                   : String( default)
    DT_Row.fieldnames          : FirstName,LastName,City,PostCode
    DT_Row.fieldSeparator      : ,
    DT_Row.processConfiguration: FromConfiguration
    Dt_Row.endSeparator       : 'nl'
3. I did check in Adapter Monitor that Both Sender and receiver adapter are showing green and It was showing 'Adapter is up and running: But no messages processed'
4. I did check the SXMB_MONI which was showing " Scheduled for Outbound processing"
5. In SXMB_MONI outbound processing payload was picking up the file and also inbound processing showing the same.
6. my source folder and destination folder are very simple c:/praveenfiles/input and c:/praveenfiles/output
    files are source file praveen.txt and destination file praveenOP.xml
Please help me in finding out the error to see the output file in my output folder.

File Content Conversion : File to File Scenario

hi all,
I have a Input file
It has the following structure:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<n0:rfc_proxy_message_type xmlns:n0="http://kpr.com/sample">
<Name>abhishek</Name>
<Age>10</Age>
</n0:rfc_proxy_message_type>
I use a File to File Scenario, with Sender and receiver FTP adapters.
I would like to convert this file at the recieveing end into a flat file as follows:
Name     Age
abhishek 10
How can I do so?
Can anyone please help.
Thanks,
Best Regards
Abhishek

Hi,
Your Xml file should be like this.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Employee_MT xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/demo">
   <Recordset>
      <item>
         <Name>vinod</Name>
         <Id>12</Id>
         <Age>30</Age>
         <***>male</***>
      </item>
   </Recordset>
</ns0:Employee_MT>
In the content conversion parameters mention the following
Document name:    Student_MT
Document Namespace:   enter your namespace
RecordsetName:    Recordset
Recoedset Structure:   item,*
item.endSeparator = 'nl'
item.fieldSeparator= ,
item.fieldnames= Name,Id,Age,***
Hope this helps you.

Thanks

Can someone let me know what are the parameters to give in FCC receiver file adapter.

File Content Conversion File-File scenario

Dear experts,
I have been tweaking with file to file scenario where a simple file goes in source as text delimited and comes out in target as xml.
I know ,i finally get my scenario get working with these settings :
ROOT.fieldSeparator ,
ROOT.fieldNames Store_Id,TRDT,SKU,SALE_RETURN,PRICE_OVERRIDE,PROMOTION_NUMBER,PROMO_DETAIL_ID,MIX_MATCH_NUMBER,DISCOUNT_ID,QUANTITY,EXTENDED_SELLING_PRICE,EXTENDED_ORIGINAL_PRICE,DIFFERENCE_PRICE
ROOT.fieldContentFormatting trim
ROOT.endSeparator 'nl'
ROOT.missingLastfields add
ROOT.processFieldNames fromConfiguration
ignoreRecordsetName true
Now my question is where i can find all properties that are probable in ROOT.Other thing is i kept on getting mapping related errors until i reached
at this stage of properties definition.But there was no tracking as of why i got that error.The error was :
Mapping "http://TPOCTEST_SFILE/OM_TPOCTEST" failed to execute: MappingException: Runtime Exception when executing application mapping program com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_TPOCTEST_; Details: com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf7.IllegalInstanceException; Cannot create target element /ns0:MT_TPOCTEST_T/Record. Values missing in queue context. Target XSD requires a value for this element, but the target-field mapping does not create one. Check whether the XML instance is valid for the source XSD, and whether the target-field mapping fulfils the requirement of the target XSD
I resolved once i made settings on top but this was only a hit and trial.I dont know what actually was the reason behind this error.
I also used Test option of mapping and found things working.

Hi Aditya,
That error indicates that when you were facing problems with your FCC the system did not generate XML that worked with the mapping that you have OM_TPOCTEST. The error is showing that you have a target node named Record which I'm guessing is set to 1...unbounded but your FCC did not generate XML that would map in such a manner that 1 or more nodes named Record would be created in your target message.

Can't get File content conversion to produce CSV file

Hi Guys
Have no problem at all getting XML file created via an RFC
Structure is something like this
From MONI message monitor inbound message    payload
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
<CUSTOMERID>100853</CUSTOMERID>
<COMPANY>Bram Van Tuyl Coldstore</COMPANY>
<SHORT_NAME>VAN TUYL</SHORT_NAME>
<STREET>Middelkampseweg 1</STREET>
etc
</IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
</rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC>
Receiver Grouping payload
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
<CUSTOMERID>100853</CUSTOMERID>
<COMPANY>Bram Van Tuyl Coldstore</COMPANY>
<SHORT_NAME>VAN TUYL</SHORT_NAME>
etc.
With no conversion xml file is created on output directory
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns1:MT_customer_header xmlns:ns1="http://avenue.com/xi/test"><customerid>100853</customerid><company>Bram Van Tuyl Coldstore</company>
etc
Now trying to use File content conversion with the simplest possible conversion -- just insert a colon after all the fields in the structure.
Following parameters
Adapter type FILE
receiver box checked
Message protocol File Content conversion
File access etc as before
Content conversion parameters
Recordset : IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER
(have also tried Z_XI 005_RFC)
Name
CUSTOMERID.fieldSeparator :        (colon)
MONI shows message received by XI and processed correctly but NO outfile gets written to the target directory.
what am I doing wrong --it's probably something stupid.
The data into XI is a ONE RECORD structure -- not a table etc.
Cheers
jimbo

Hi guys -- both solutions STILL not working
all I'm now getting is just a file with garbage in it
Payload is fine on XI system
Here's the payload
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
- <item>
<CUSTOMERID>65013</CUSTOMERID>
<COMPANY>OY PANDA AB</COMPANY>
<SHORT_NAME>PANDA</SHORT_NAME>
<STREET>P.O.Box 3</STREET>
<STREET2 />
<STREET3 />
<STREET4 />
<POSTCODE>3331 GT</POSTCODE>
   etc etc until end of customer mmaster details
</item>
</IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
</rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC>
Without conversion file is generated on target directory
Here's the XML output file sent to the directory
(for testing I only usec the ist 3 fields)
Not sure why <item>   disappeared - maybe that has something to do with it ?
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns1:MT_customer_header xmlns:ns1="http://avenue.com/xi/test">

File Content conversion - IDOC to Fixed length File

Hi,
Scenario : SAP R/3(IDOC) -> XI -> Fixed Length file
IDOC is sending from SAP R/3, XI has to do the mapping and send a Fixed length File to /tmp in XI.
When I am using the message Protocol as "File" in the Receiver communication channel, XML file is writing to /tmp. When I am using "File Content Conversion" as a message protocol,Empty File is writing. Can anybody tell me why empty file is creating. Can we use File content Conversion in this scenario. Is there any additional parameter or settings required?
Receiver communication channel settings:
Message Protocol: File Content Conversion
File type       : Binary
Recordstructure : MT_V_PER01
Name                             Value
MT_V_PER01.fieldFixedLengths     25,35
MT_V_PER01.fieldNames            PERSNR,NAME
File Data Type : DT_V_PER01,
Message type   : MT_V_PER01
IDOC type      : WP_PER01.
Expecting your expert advice.
Thanks

Hi Dhanush,
                    It is better always if u have a structure with Header and trailers if u have a subsrtuctures in it & always try make it in this format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_ContentConversion_Test>
   <Header>
      <F1>HF1</F1>
      <F2>HF2</F2>
   </Header>
   <Item>
      <F1>IF1</F1>
      <F2>IF2</F2>
   <Item>
   <Trailer>
      <F1>TF1</F1>
      <F2>TF2</F2>
   </Trailer>
</ns0:MT_ContentConversion_Test>
Try to go through this blog it will be very helpful to u :

File content conversion in File-to-RFC without BPM

Hi,
I am using FCC for file to RFc scenario.
My input record is in the following format:
Header record
data rec1
data rec2
Trailer record..
The parameters are used in File content conversion:
Recordset Name : Header,item
Recordset Structure: Header,1,item,*
key field name : data1
and in additional parameters:
Header.fieldNames            HI,GenDate,Ftype,Fname,Fdate
Header.keyFieldValue       Fname
Header.fieldFixedLengths 1,8,1,50,8
Header.endSeparator        nl
item.endSeparator             nl
item.fieldNames                  DATA1,DATA2,DATA3,DATA4
item.keyFieldValue             item
item.fieldFixedLengths       231,240,241,120
item.lastFieldsOptional       YES
Can anyone check whether any parameters are left, b'cos the file is not being read with this settings. and in the C.C its just showing file processing successfully but not able to see the actual file.

Hi,
I assume you have header, item and trailer structure in source file.
Source Data Type will be as follows.
RecordSet
--> Header
      --> KeyField(Value OH)
      --> H1
      --> H2
--> Item
      --> KeyField (Value OL)
      --> I1
      --> I2
-->Trailer
      --> KeyField (Value OT)
      --> T1
      --> T2
Where Item Strucutre can come multiple times.
Please use following settings.
Recordset name: RecordSet
RecordSet Structure: Header,1,Item,*,Trailer,1
Key Field Name: KeyField
Header.fieldNames: KeyField,H1,H2
Header.fieldFixedLengths: 2,3,4
Header.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Header.keyFieldValue: OH
Header.LastFieldsOptional: YES
Item.fieldNames: KeyField,I1,I2
Item.fieldFixedLengths: 2,5,6
Item.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Item.keyFieldValue: OL
Item.LastFieldsOptional: YES
Trailer.fieldNames: KeyField,T1,T2
Trailer.fieldFixedLengths: 2,8,9
Trailer.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Trailer.keyFieldValue: OT
Trailer.LastFieldsOptional: YES
