Dynamic taget directory usinf Filename

Hi all
I have a requirement in which I have to Dynamically choose target directory depending on the filename??
Example
If File name is FI08.txt ,it should be posted to following folder
server\Test\<FileName>. If it has deiiferent file name it should be posted to different directory.
I am usind a simple file to file interface without using IR.
So there is no Mapping involved.

Is there any other solution possible without using Variable Substitution.

Variable substitution :
When you specify the target directory and file name schema, you now have the option of setting variables and defining them in a table. The variables are replaced by elements from the XML structure at runtime.
Contrary to the description in the documentation, you cannot yet replace with attributes from the XI message header. Do not use the prefix during variable substitution

Also see the below links to use the dynamic variable substitution

File Adapter : Dynamic Target Directory

Hi EveryBody,
I have an IDOC to File Scenario in which based on some field value X in IDOC i need to send the file to Different locations under the same FTP Server.
For Example : if X = 01 then Target folder T1
X = 02 then Target folder T2.
Can somebody help me out on the same.Possibly this can be done by Dynamic Configuration.Can somebody send me some links.
Regards,
Zabiulla

Hi,
First of all I would suggest to avoid the mail communications for the query.
Its against the SDN rules.
please read [Rules of Engagement|/thread/117188 [original link is broken];.
About Solution, you need not have to go for Dynamic Target Directory
You can use the Variable substitution concept here.
In the Target directory pass the %Var1%
and use Var1 ---> payload:<fieldName>
Refer to the last part of this link to understand this better,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm

Dynamic FTP Directory Address in File Adapter - is this possible?

We have a customer who would like us to pick up a file via an FTP file adapter once per day. The problem is, they have a different directory each day containing the file. The directory name is of the form YYYY-MM-DD. The name of the file in the directory is always the same.
Is it possible to dynamically calculate the Source Directory name in the FTP file adapter? If so, how?
Kind Regards,
Tony.

Hi,
All the examples I have seen are to configure the Receiver File Adapter, not the Sender File Adapter. I don't thinl I have seen one blog yet whereby the source directory of a Sender File Adapter has been dynamically configured. I wonder if it can be done because the sender file adapter does not have Variable Substitution possibilities for filenames and directories.
So has anybody a link to a blog where this dynamic choice of a source directory has been done for a SENDER file adapter?

Dynamic file Directory : Sender File Adapter

Hi all
In one of our interface development ,at we require a dynamic Directory path at the sender file adapter ..
ex :
path = Root/A/B/C
filename = test.txt
now in Root Directory, Folder & subfolder " A ( B ( C ))) are dynamic.
Subfolder "C" wil contain the source file..
Will it possible...with Z module development..??

Ashutosh

hi,
if you want your directory name dynamically from Payload, you can use the option variable substitustion;
For example follow below procedure:
1)in the Target directory name --> /%dir%
2)go to advanced tab and check for the variable substitution option(enable),
3)variable name:dir
Reference:Payload:mt_filetest,1,name,1
according to the given details in the communication channel your payload should be like this
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:mt_filetest xmlns:ns0="urn://filetest">
<name>madhav</name>
</ns0:mt_filetest>
now directory is created with the name of madhav (Dynamically according to the payload directory name is created).
Note: points if it is useful
Thanks

Dynamic source directory in sender adapter

Hi Experts,
I have a File to File scenario, where my source directory needs to be dynamic. The directory structure is like:
Y:\ParentDrive\<DynamicFolder>\<DynamicFolder>\<DynmicFileName>
And then on the receiver side, I need to create the DynamicFolders and the file.
Please let me know if this can be achieved using modules or if there is any other approach.

hi,
refer my article:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/70c89607-e4d9-2910-7280-f6746e964516
it shows using filename. similarly u can use directory attribute.

Dynamic File, Directory names - File2File Scenario

We donot have message mapping in our Scenario ( Ftp file 2 Ftp file scenario ) where we like to change filename, directory before writing file on the target ftp server. Basically Dynamic configuration has to be manipulated based on file name pattern. How can we change Dynamic configuration variables without message mapping step.
Thanks

Bhavesh, Aamir,
I am not as learned as you all are...However i have one doubt...
Can you tell me how..you would use variable substitution or any of the other features besides the dynamic Config bean...to make a decision..with this logic.
If(filename.equals(a)){
String dir = /usr/sap;
else if(filename.equals(b)){
String dir = /usr/pas;
Can someone please enlighten me as this is a problem i have had before and had to do a workaround on...

Dynamic target Directory

Hi All
I have a scenario in which all my master IDOCS should flow form R3 to XI and form XI to the FTP Server's respective Folder loaction.
The Folder option is storewise , so for example for ST01 , the corresponding WP_PLU should be placed at ST01 folder location in the ftp server.
there is an UDF written foe file naminf convention:
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http:" + "/" + "/" + "sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
Calendar cal = Calendar.getInstance();
Date date = cal.getTime();
String s = date.toString();
String a1 = s.substring(8,10);
String b = s.substring(4,7);
String b1="a";
if(b.equals("Jan"))
{b1="01";}
if(b.equals("Feb"))
{b1="02";}
if(b.equals("Mar"))
{b1="03";}
if(b.equals("Apr"))
{b1="04";}

{b1="12";}
String c = s.substring(24);
String sDate = a1b1c;
String e = s.substring(11,13);
String f = s.substring(14,16);
String g = s.substring(17,19);
String sTime = efg;
String d = a.substring(9,25);
String Idoc = d;
String RecieverFilename = "WPDBBY_"Idoc"_"sDate"_"sTime".txt";
//<Receiver Filename> ; //you have to give the filename that has to be generated in the receiver adapter.
conf.put(key, RecieverFilename);
return a;
Could any1 please help how to add the directory to it,please let me know the code as i am not a JAVA developer
regards
Prajna

Hi,
add this extra code
DynamicConfigurationKey DIR_NAME = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","Directory");
String Dirname = "";
//write logic to generate a dynamic directory and make sure that this directory exists in FTP
//(or) the Receiver file channel Channel has access rights to create the folder.
conf.put(DIR_NAME, Dirname );//now put that Dirname value generated here
Also Make sure that in the receiver file channel Adapter Specific message Attributes is checked along with FileName & Directory.
Thanks,
Gujjeti.

Dynamically change directory in FileAdapter while write file

my situation is:
I would like to write a file to a specified directory with specified file name. I found there is not directory parameter in fileAdapterOutboundHeader.wsdl. When I specify fileName, it is always plus with the Logical/PhysicalDirectory. And if I configure the Logical/PhysicalDirectory as empty, it doesn't work.
please check it for me.
thanks

File directory information goes to second WSDL which is created by FileAdapter it looks like this
<jca:operation
PhysicalDirectory="C:\Project\Integration\temp\FileWrite"
InteractionSpec="oracle.tip.adapter.file.outbound.FileInteractionSpec"
FileNamingConvention="service_%SEQ%.xml"
NumberMessages="1"
ElapsedTime="60"
FileSize="1024000"
OpaqueSchema="false" >
</jca:operation>
I also want to change it dynamically. lets see if we get lucky :)

File Sender Adapter - Dinamic Source Directory and Filename

Hi Experts,
I have to receive in XI a file and depeding of some info, put it in diferent directories with diferent fieldnames.
In receiver File Adapter we can set the directory and fieldname dinamically by ABAP-CLASS mapping, but not in Sender.
I've read Michal's blog
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14
and sap help
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/43/03612cdecc6e76e10000000a422035/frameset.htm
But, I can't find Adapter-Specific Message Attributes in my File Adapter...:-) I've checked SP version is SP16, where are my Adapter-Specific Message Attributes?
How can I set Directory and Fieldname at runtime for Sender File Adapter?
Please help...
Thanks all in advance,
Regards.
Urtzi.

Hi Nilesh,
Your threath is not about my issue...
Answering to other friends, what I want is not to write p.e.: '/server/dir/' in each File Sender Adapter Channel, and put it with any other way looking some 'customizing' or checking a condition.
The problem is that frecuently in the Company changes servers and we have to enter to the Directory and change every Channel one by one...We would like to reduce the maintain of the Channels with a mapping, variable, customizing table...or something similar. Do I explain?
I don't know if its possible but I had the hope...:-)
Thanks all.

Dynamic Configuration for determining filename

Hi ,
I am using dynamic configuration for determining the filename sent by the sender
I am using the following code::
int i = 0;
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);
if (ourSourceFileName.equals("data.txt"))
for (i = 0 ; i < 1 ; i++)
result.addValue(ourSourceFileName);
i have also 'checked' filename in set Adapter specific message propertiesas in sender communication channel.
But Still it is not working.
Please provide some help on it.
Thanks & Regards

How to include partner number dynamically in the archive filename ?

Hi,
I am working on IDOC archiving. Since we have a lots of IDOCs with the same Master IDOC name but coming from different partners, it would make sense to generate as much archive files as there are different partners.
I have seen that the archive filename is dynamically built with concatenation of parameters.
I guess we could use the filename_exit function module to set a parameter to the value of the partner number, but how to get the partner number ?

Dynamic construction of temporary filename for receiver file hcannel

Hi,
We are using a receiver file channel and we need to populate the temporary file name dynamically , in the message mapping (similar to main file name and folder).
Please let me know as to how to achieve this in message mapping and what configuration needs to be done in the receiver file channel.
Regards
Ganesh

Hi,
A way to fetch File name Dynamically (from source File Adapter) in message mapping is through a UDF and then pass this Filename in XML payload of your message.
Then this Dyanamic File name can be put into Receiver File Adapter by configuring Advanced Tab in Receiver File Adapter as explained in this Link:
under Advanced Tab Page
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/ae/d03341771b4c0de10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
UDF is as Follows:
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String valueOld = conf.get(key);
return (valueOld);
This code fetches File Name of the files picked up by Sender File Adapter.Give a suitable file name in Sender as "*.txt" or anthing you wish.
If you find the information helpful, rewards points.
Thanks,
Anurag Garg

I am assuming that the plan and location fields are part of the data structure and the path D:SXCommon will always remain the same in all the environments.
In that case, you can write a generic UDF for this that will handle in Dev, QA and PRD

Dynamic target directory with variable substitution

Hi everyone.
I'm trying to save a file in a folder with receiver adapter.
This folder is determined in runtime and passed to the adapter with variable substitution. My problem is that in RWB i get a error like this : 'Content of variable XXXXX is not safe'
Does anybody have done a variable substituion for output directory receiver file adapter?

How to browse a local PC directory and filename in Forms 10g?

I am adding a Text Item and a Push Button. When the Push Button is pressed, I would like to select files from the local PC on Windows XP.
What is the code that is required in order to select folder and filename and pass the value to a Text Item?

I can now compile webutil.pll to webutil.plx after I start the create_webutil_db.sql bundled with the webutil in the schema I am using to connect from forms.
I can run the form, but at run-time, another Error Alert appears:
oracle.forms.webutil.file FileFunctions bean not found. WEBUTIL_FILE.FILE.SELECTION_DIALOG_INT will not work.
What has gone wrong?
I found that there is a batch file to sign jar files:
sign_webutil.bat - Sample script to sign frmwebutil.jar and jacob.jar
I can sign frmwebutil.jar but I cannot fond the file jacob.jar.
