Dynamic File Name attachment in Mail Adpater

Hi All,
We have Requirement where we need attach file with Dynamic Names in mail adapter PI7.0 .Right now we are using some of the modules to genarate file attachement with hard coded value for name of the file.
Java beans we are using are
localejbs/AF_Modules/StrictXml2PlainBean
localejbs/AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean
localejbs/AF_Modules/TextCodepageConversionBean
sap.com/com.sap.aii.adapter.mail.app/XIMailAdapterBean
Please let us know how we can acheive this.
Thanks,
Madhu

Hi Madhusudhan,
File attachment with the dynamic name is possible by using the Adapter module as well as without the Adpater module through coding.
let me know which kind of attachment you want in mail and which is your sending system (like SAP R/3)?
Thanks & Regards

Dynamic file name of the attachment in receiver mail adapter

Hi
I have configured a receiver mail adapter which receives the payload as an xml attachment.
Right now the file name of the attachment is hardcoded to "invoice.xml".
I want to set it to dynamic ie. instead of "invoice.xml"... i want it as "invoice<invoicenumber>.xml".
Invoice number is present in the payload.
please suggest a solution w/o the need to develop a custom adapter module.
Thanks!

Dynamic file name in communication channel

hello
is it possible to give in the communication channel, under the 'File Access Parameters', a dynamic file name?
to get it out of a table or something?
Thanks
Kfir

Hi,
Yes its bit possible to use the dynamic file name at File access paramters
The dynamic filename generation concept is as follows.
In your filename field. just give a variable with % symbols. (eg: %file% ).
Now, under the option Variable Name Substitution, you can give how the value has to be created.
It can be your interface name, sender service name, etc or it can be some value dynamically from your payload.
For the former, your give
message:interface_name ,etc
and for the payload part you give,
Payload: "your element root which u wanna acecss"
Just check this link out,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm
And read the contents under variable substitution and it will help you understand the concepts better.

Dynamic file name inside the ZIP file

Hi Experts,
I have done proxy to file scenario, reciever side is the file ZIP file, i have done successfully done Zip file using adapter modules in Communication Channel.
The file name is hard coded like this.
contentType-----Transform.ContentType--
text/plain;charset="UTF-8";name="Billing.txt"
Is there any possible to do dynamic file name instead of hardcoded like add time stamp.
Kind Regards,
Praveen.

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:
https://service.sap.com/sap/support/notes/856599
From the note:
Q: How can I set the file name of a mail attachment?

Dynamic file name from input payload (RFC 2 flat file)

Hi,
I have an RFC to flat file scenario. The output flat file has not an XML structure, it's just a plain text file generated with abap mapping.
In my source interface (RFC), I have a field called <FILENAME>, I want to use the value of that field to create the target file using dynamic file name. But if in variable substitution I use payload:ZRFC_NAME,1,FILENAME,1 It doesn't work because the dynamic variable substitution try to access to output payload, not the source one...
What can I do?

Hi Marshal,
You can add a extra node to your target strucutre like
FileName- Node
--FileName - Element.
do the mapping from the field filename of RFC to FileName field in u r target strucure. And use this field path at Refrence in variable subtituion.
In the Content converison add the Name & Values as below
FileName.fileldNames -- FileName
FileName.fieldFixedLengths -- 0
FileName.fixedLengthTooShortHandling -- Cut
So the extra field in u r target structure would not populate in u r target text file.
Cheers
Veera

Dynamic file name ?

Hi,
I am following this blog to name the target file/directory dynamically at the runtime :
/people/sameer.shadab/blog/2005/09/23/an-interesting-usage-of-variable-substitution-in-xi
But I am getting this error in the CC monitoring :
Could not process due to error: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: Unknown message header category 'interface_name ' for variable 'var1'.

Hi,
Try following this weblog for dynamic file name.
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14
Dynamic filename come under the Dynamic configuration in moni, for your messages.
This is the code used inside.
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
That is why Dynamic configuration is coming in output.. It is a class to generate dynamic configuration file at runtime provided by SAP XI.
Hope this will help you.

Dynamic file name in case of .txt output files

Hi all,
I have a query related to dynamic file name scenario.
In case of IDOC-XI-FILE sceanrio,
Is it possible to generate .txt file name based on Plant number like
%<Plantname>%_%<BusinessDay>_filename.txt
Note:I have implemneted this for .xml output files but I am not able to implement it for .txt output files .
PLEASE HELP ME .
Regards
Prabhat

Hi Prabhat,
I think, the normal Dynamic File Name generation should work fine in your case also. Even if you perform Content Conversion, you can use Variable Name Substiution to create your Destination file name as, the name of the file is determined first and only then is the content converison perfromed.
for info on content conversion, I would suggest that you go through this thread and check my reply,

Dynamic File name in File Adapter

Hi,
I have a requirement to pass dynamic file name in File Adapter.
Is there any way to pass a variable for the file name attribut in file adapter.
I am looking for some options apart from %yyMMddHHmmss%,%SEQ%...etc
Please suggest if any of you have information on how to put values from a variable to file name attribute in file adapter
regards
Saiju

Hi Saiju,
Yes there is.
Assign your file name to a variable, let's say 'fileName'.
Now go to your invoke activity(for the specific fileadapter) -> Property tab-> find a property call jca.file.FileName -> in the value field assign 'fileName' variable.
That's it... (assuming you are using 11g)

Error dynamic File Name in Receiver File Adapter

Hi all,
Dynamic file name for Receiver file Adapter Problem
my multi mapping look like this in design mode

or

in file receivere adapter i have try this but it dos not work
payload:SD01_E,1,FileName,1
Error:com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.ParserException: XMLParser: No data allowed here: (hex) 0(:main:, row:1, col:0)
is there any way to have access to Filename in different root elements??

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.

Dynamic File Name - UDF

Hi Master,
I written the UDF for Getting the Dynamic File name.
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
// Retrieve the filename
String FileName = conf.get(key);
This is working ok - but I want to return these values so I can be used in mapping.
when I try to add the statement return FileName; , the compiler then complains with the following error:
cannot return a value from method whose result type is void return FileName;
Please help me,
Thanks,
Anu

Could you please provided some help on the same?
I have tried the same through UDF it is working. Could anyone provide me the steps for the same
Regards
Abhishek Mahajan

Hi,
You can use the already available adapter module "DynamicConfigurationBean". Have this adapter module at the top of the module list in CC.
Have the parameter value as insert http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File FileName and http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File SourceFileSize (corresponding to the key names)
For more info:
