Dynamic File Name as source file format

Hi Experts,
I have to load daily Excel Workbook to HANA.
Files will come to shared Folder in BODS Job Server in the format 'FILE_NAME_<DAYMONYYYY>'.xlsx format.
Everyday the file name will be appended with System Date Format.
Example: 'FILE_NAME_17JUL2014.xlsx', 'FILE_NAME_18AUG2014.xlsx' etc.
I tried to achieve it by creating a substitution parameter and using it to dynamically define file name.
But I am not able to define the parameter correctly. (screenshot attached).
Please advise where I am doing wrong. Is there any better way to achieve it.
Thanks,

Hi Bala,
Thanks for your suggestion.
For a test I have created
1. A Flat File named "FLAT_FILE_2014.txt".
2. A Global Variable $G_FILE_NAME as varchar(18) and value 'FLAT_FILE_'||Year(sysdate())||'.txt'.
3. Used it in the File Name for File Format.
Below is the result:
When I hard-code the file name as "FLAT_FILE_2014.txt", I am getting the data Preview.
But When I am using global variable $G_FILE_NAME, I am not getting the data Preview.
Please check attached "C.png"
Please suggest.
Thanks,
Krishnendu.

To retain the same file name in target(File) that coming from source system(AS2).

Hi All,
I have a requirement to send the two file from the third party system(GXS) to SAP ECC via SAP PI(version - 7.4). We are using AS2 adapter at the sender side to pick the file and using File Adapter to place the file in ECC.
Its a pass through scenarion(No ESR part is used).
Requirement:
We are going to get 2 files ->Example: one from Axis and another one from ICICI -> each bank file will have a file name ->
We have to post the file at the target system with the same name as source file name, the source file name could come dynamically(with diff time stamp).
Please let me know, Is it possible to achieve the above requirement(we have to retain the file name in target that coming from source system) with Sender AS2 adapter, If yes then please suggest the best approach.
Regards,
Pradeep Bawlia

Hi Guys,
The above requirement is solved now.
Solution - I used java mapping for extracting the same source file name and assignning the same to the target system.
Code:
public class ExtractFileName_ASMA extends AbstractTransformation{
public void transform(TransformationInput in, TransformationOutput out) throws StreamTransformationException
DynamicConfiguration conf=in.getDynamicConfiguration();
DynamicConfigurationKey key_AS2FileNmae = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/AS2/AS2", "AS2Filename");
DynamicConfigurationKey key_FileNmae = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:/"+"/sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
String As2FileName=conf.get(key_AS2FileNmae);
conf.put(key_FileNmae, As2FileName);
try{
byte b[]=new byte[in.getInputPayload().getInputStream().available()];
in.getInputPayload().getInputStream().read(b);
out.getOutputPayload().getOutputStream().write(b);
catch(Exception e)
2. Another solution we can use the graphical mapping and need to use the dynamic config UDF at mapping level to acheive this requirement but here is one drawback - we need to do content conversion is this case.
In case of Java mapping, no need to play with source file.
WITHOUT USING ESR, WE CAN NOT ACHEIVE THIS REQUIREMENT.

How to overwrite source files, or use source file names?

Hi all
I would like AME (5.5.1.12, under Windows 7) to overwrite the source files that it is encoding, or if that's not possible, save the exported files to a different folder with the same file names as the sources.
However I can see no way to do this without manually specifying a file name for every file. I need to process 400 files so this is not practical.
Currently AME automatically adds a "-1" suffix to the exported file name, whether it's saved in the same folder as the source or a different folder.
Can anyone advise, please?

Hi Jim,
Thanks for the reply. However, overwriting source files during a batch process is a common feature in audio/video software. It's possible in Audition, for instance, as well as in third-party programs such as Sound Forge, Wavelab and Samplitude.
Presumably in these cases the software writes to a temporary file, either in RAM or on the hard drive, before deleting the original and replacing it with the new one.
I'm surprised to hear that AME can't do this for conversions that stay within the same file format (such as the bit depth of a wave file).

Hi Ralf,
i think, you need for each XML msg (each different root element) a new adapter -> a new IF determination, new rec agreement and a new channel.

I can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name

can not transfer date from one hard drive to another, I keep getting an error because I have two of the same file names and one file name is in caps and I cant change the file name. My original external has an error and needs to be reformatted but I dont want to lose this informations its my entire Itunes library.

Sounds like the source drive is formatted as case sensitive and the destination drive is not. The preferred format for OS X is case insensitive unless there is a compelling reason to go case sensitive.
Why can't you change the filename? Is it because the source drive is having problems? If so is this happening with only one or two or a few files? If so the best thing would be to copy those over individually and then rename them on the destination drive.
If it is more then you can do manually and you can't change the name on the source you will have to reformat the destination as case sensitive.
Btw this group is for discussion of the Support Communities itself, you;d do better posting to Lion group. I'll see if a host will move it.

Logical File name of Transaction File

Hi All,
I am using FILE_NAME_GET function module to get the Physical file name based on logical file name.
But here i am not getting total file name, i maintained Physical File name as ZDM\INTB18\<PARAM_1>.
Transaction File is stored in application server and it's name is ZDM\INTB18\RMCB18_DATETIME.
Could you please anybody suggest how to get total file name.
Thanks,
Rami Reddy.

Hi Rami,
Have you utilised the Parameter WITH_FILE_EXTENSION in the function ... e.g.
Example
logical file name: MONTHLY_SALES_FILE
physical file name: VALUES<PARAM_1>
logical path: SALES_DATA_PATH
physical path (Windows): C:\SALES\<FILENAME>
Get file name for WINDOWS platform, with file name extension
CALL                                                                                FUNCTION                                                                                'FILE_GET_NAME'
   EXPORTING
      LOGICAL_FILENAME = 'MONTHLY_SALES_FILE'
      WITH_FILE_EXTENSION = 'X'
   IMPORTING
      FILE_NAME = FILE
      FILE_FORMAT = FORMAT.
Result:
FILE = C:\SALES\VALUES.WK1
FORMAT = WK1

Configure receiver file name as Sender file name

Hi All,
In PI7.1. We have scenario(file to file). Here the sender system send multiple files and In the receiver system we need to populate the same filenames as Sender file Names.
Could you please let me know is there a configuration to have Receiver file schem name As like sender file names.
Thanks in Advance,
Naga.

Hi Naga,
This can be achieved using either variable substitution or Dynamic Configuration by enabling Adapter Specific Message Attributes in sender and receiver file channels.
If the sender file name and receiver file name needs to be exactly same then just check Adapter Specific Message Attributes in advanced tab of both sender and receiver channels. Check on File Name under that.
Lot of help over this is already available in sdn, kindly serach and you will get lot of helpful blogs and wikis

Mapping physical file name to logical file name

Hi All,
Can anybody let me know wht is the procedure to map a logical file name to physical file name. wht is the use of logical file name when there exists physical file name?
Thanx in Advance

As far as creating the Logical path its done through the transaction code file by using options
Steps are:
1. Logical file path definition which is logical file path name.
2. Assignment of physical path to logical path - where we give the physical path to the logical path name defined in the last step.
After creating the Logical path the procedure to attach the file name to the Logical path is as follows:
Use the function Module C13Z_FRONT_END_TO_APPL to upload the file from the front end to the application server.
Source file on front end will be the CSV file path which is to be uploaded to the application server
Target file on application server will be the physical path of the file on the application server where the file is to be uploaded.
Attach the physical path of the file on the application server to the Logical file using transaction code file.
Logical File: The Logical name of the file which will be used by the interfaces to upload the file
Physical file: The name of the physical file on the application server
Logical path: The path of the physical file on the application server where it is stored.
The possible reason for the use of Logical file name could be we can have directories within SAP in which we can have logical files stored. These files can be used by various interfaces. Different Logical paths can be used for different interfaces. the second reson can be to give more user friendly name to the file rather than a long physical name to the file.

How to apply input file name to output file in file adapter

Hi Friends

Thanks
pullarao

Hi Pullarao,
I have two questions ...
1. Are u want the static file name in the target file?
if yes...then follow the Bhavesh instruction.
2.If u want a dynamic file name in the target file using UDF....then your UDF should mapped to the <b>root element</b> of target structure.
/**********UDF********/
Imports: com.sap.aii.mapping.api.*;
Parameter: String filename
String filename;
filename = fileName + ".DAT";
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
conf.put(key, filename);
return filename;
/*******END UDF*******/

Outgoing file name as incoming file name??

Hi,
I have a scenario FILE >XI>FILE.
I need to write the outgoing file with the same name as the incomming file.
For example the incomming file is abc.txt. The outgoing file from SAP should be abc.txt.
Any SUGGESTIONS!!
Regards
Vijaya

Hi,
you have to create a module to the file receiver adapter that will insert the filename into the payload of the XML message
sap note:
819761 - XI 3.0 File Sender: Accessing source file name from a module
then you can use <b>variable substitution</b> (from SP12)
to name your output file
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm
this is how you should do it:)

Where does Lightroom put HDR in the grid view? Is there anyway to have Lightroom stack the HDR file with the source files?

I can't decipher where (and why) the program is putting the HDR image in the grid. I stack all of my HDR source images so they are easy to track and manage. Other apps/plugins allow you to stack resulting images with their source image. That would be great if there's a way to set that in LR preferences.

Thanks, but this doesn't really answer the question about stacking the HDR file with the source files. Yes, it does put the file in the same folder, however many of my folders have 100s of images (that often look similar) and as far as I can tell, LR places them randomly in the sort order. It doesn't appear to put them at the beginning or end of the sort (usually by date), but somewhere randomly in the middle. Even if it could be made clear what method it is using to sort them, that would help locate one file among hundreds.
Ideally, however it should allow you to stack with the stacked source files. Is there anyway to do this? If not, is it a feature that could be requested?
