Error in mapping and in file content conversion

Dear All,
I am configuring one file-xi-rfc scenario in which the structure of the input file is as follows:
EDI_DC40 2 DELVRY03 SHPCON
E1EDL20 020 0083710164
E1EDL18 020 PIC
E1EDL18 020 PGI
E1EDL18 020 GWT
I want to pick only VBELN from the segment E1EDL20 and post ot to the RFC. In the input file, the above structure is getting repeated for different VBELN.
Please help in configuring the sender DT, MM and in doing File Content Conversion.
Waiting for your reply.
Warm Regards,
N.Jain

Hi,

Using XSLT mapping to avoid File content conversion

Hi all,
Can we avoid FCC by using XSLT mapping? I have a scenario in which I have to avoid FCC in the adapter and save the file in a excel/csv format. I have been through the different blogs and forums in SDN.
I have been through Michal Krawczyk's Blog https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/weblogs?blog=/pub/wlg/2803. [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken] [original link is broken]
Got a bit confused whether that blog serves my purpose. Expecting your valid inputs.
Thanks and regards,

Hi,
There are multiple ways in which you can avoid Content Conversion in the Sender / Receiver File adapters.
I think there was a heated discussion already regarding this in one of your earlier threads,
Read/Write csv files without file converter
Basically, if you want to avoid content conversion on the sender file adapter,
1. Write an Adapter Module. or,
2. Use a Java Mapping.
If you want to avoid content conversion on the receiver File adapter,
1,. Use a Adapter Modules or,
2. Use Java Or XSLTmapping ( XSLT can be used if the input to the mapping is XML and output needs to be say a Excel File etc).

Need an error for no keyFieldValue during File Content Conversion

Hi Gurus,
I am working on a scenario where I have to convert a CSV file structure.
Each sender file is having "END" in the last so that the structure looks like as follows:
I,103468,-No Entry-,299103468002,0.010,50.000,1.000,-49.990,None,,0,Diab
S,3101,100.125,abc,abc
END
Now the requirement is, if file does not contain "END" in the last then PI should not pick this file.
This is only possible if I make "END" as a Key Field and for "keyFieldValue" I assign value "END" with either end separator or field fixed length functions.
But the default behaviour of PI is, even if I create key field value, if it is not available in the file, PI would ignore that record.
I tried all possible combination in the following link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
but for key field value it is clearly written that:
"Specify the value of the key field for the structure. This entry is mandatory if the key field name is set. Otherwise, the entry is ignored."
Is there any way by which I get error if "END" is not available?
One of the alternatives which I see is to create OS level scripts and read the content. If I don't get "END" in the last then put the same file in a different, temporary directory. And once processing is done I pull it back to original directory
Any suggestion on this would be highly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Vikash

Dear Mickael,
I tried putting "1" in the last and executed but it did not helped. File is executing successfully even if there is no END in the last.
so the current behaviour is: whatever written or even blank in the last, if it is not "END", it is ignored. If I mention "END" in the last, it is always picked by FCC and inserted in the XML.
Do you think some other way of proceeding?
Thanks in advance.

Vikash

CSV File Content Conversion

Hello, I have a litte problem with the File-Adapter and the File Content Conversion.
We get csv-files in which are 2 structures
the first row contents headerinformations like invoicenumber and sumfields.
The following rows contents item-informations.
I want to convert the file in a xml-format like this:
<invoice>
 <invoiceheader>
 .... (information from the first row)
 </invoiceheader>
 <itemlist>
 <item>
 ... (information from 2. row )
 </item>
 <item>
 ... (information from 3. row )
 </item>
 <item>
 ... (information from last row )
 </item>
 </itemlist>
</invoice>
The csv-file looks like this:
In the csv-file i have no keys which determine the kind of row. I only know that the first row contains the headerinformation and the following rows (2. until last) contains the item informations.
Any idea ?
Kindly regards
Detlef Breitwieser

Hello anybody !
I want the conversion is done by the file-adapter -
and i have no keyvalues - that's the problem.
I only know - the 1. row contains the headerstructure and the following rows contains the itemstructure.
I configured the Fileadapter with this paramters (for an example)
xml.recordsetStructure=HeaderSum,1,Item,60000
xml.recordsetName=AvisRechnung
xml.recordsetsPerMessage=*
xml.documentName=Avis
xml.HeaderSum.fieldSeparator=;
xml.HeaderSum.structureTitle=head
xml.HeaderSum.fieldNames=head1,head2,head3,head4,head5,head6,head7,head8
xml.Item.fieldSeparator=;
xml.Item.structureTitle=item
xml.Item.fieldNames=item1,item2,item3,item4,item5,item6,item7,item8,item9
The Csv-File is this:

XI File Content conversion

Hi,
I am using SP 12 of XI. I am able to see the File Content conversion option in the Sender communication channel but not able to see the option in the Receiver Communication channel.
Could anyone please suggest a solution?
Regards,
Karan

Hi,
I cannot see the option in the Message Protocol only.
I can only see the option File in the Message protocol for the Receiver Communication Channel and NOT File Content Conversion option.
However, I am able to see the option in the Message Protocol for the Sender Communication channel for the file adapter.

** File Content Conversion Error in Receiver CC - How to solve this?

Hi friends,
My target structure looks like below.
EmployeeJobDetails --> Message Type
 JobCode --> Node
 EmployeeNumber xsd:string
 Domain xsd:string
 JobTrack --> Node
 Department xsd: string
 Position xsd: string
I use the FCC parameters in the receiver CC as below:
Recordset Structure: JobCode,JobTrack
JobCode.fieldSeparator = |
JobCode.endSeparator = 'nl'
JobTrack.fieldSeparator = |
JobTrack.endSepartor = 'nl'.
Because, we want the output like below
1099|Raja
Accts|JuniorAccountant
1100|Ram
HR|Recruiter
like this.
In this scenario Source is XML and target is txt file.
I am using XSLT Mapping. The FCC works fine, if my source input file contains some records. But, when we send empty source XML file as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<EMPLOYEE_DATA/>
Mapping works fine. Message is processed successfully in SXMB_MONI. The payload in response also comes with Message Type name like below
<EmployeeJobDetails namespace >
</EmployeeJobDetails>
While convert this, the system throws below error.
Error Message:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure '' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)': java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure '' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
Friend, how to convert this when source XML is empty.
But, if we remove JobTrack node in target strucutre and remove the JobTrack parameters in CC, then if we send the same empty XML file FCC is working fine and we get the target text file 0 KB. (Amazing !!)
But, in the first case, how to solve the issue?
Kind Regards,
Jegathees P.

Hi friends,
If we remove JobTrack node in target strucutre and remove the JobTrack parameters in CC, then if we send the same empty XML file FCC is working fine and we get the target text file 0 KB. (Amazing !!)
But, if we give parameters like JobCode,JobTrack then send pass the same empty file, we face the problem 'File Content Conversion' Error.

File Content Conversion and Empty file issue

Hello,
The issue is :
I have configured a file sender adapter with file Content Conversion. I have 2 kinds of records Header and Items.
i have defined the 'Key Field Name' based on the first character of each line of my flat file and the values associated :
Header.keyFieldValue = 1
Item.keyFieldValue = 2
Flat file example :
1;Headerfield1;Headerfield2
2;ItemField1;ItemField1;ItemField1;ItemField1;
2;ItemField1;ItemField1;ItemField1;ItemField1;
2;ItemField1;ItemField1;ItemField1;ItemField1;
and everything works fine !
But now imagine you receive a bad file like this :
xxxxx;ohhohoh;llllll
y;sdfsdfs;zezerz;zerzer
e;zerzerze;zezerzerzer
The result is : IS receive nothing and no alert is generated ?!!!???
What i have seen is that the adapter doesn't find any corresponding value for keyFieldValue so it consider that the flat file is empty and i do nothing, the file is archived and that's all no alert is generated ????
But i want to receive an alert for checking that the processed flat file was not correct !
If anybody has an idea, it will be great !
Regards,
Vincent

Hi Vincent.
Sometimes it really #!@#%%#.. me off when customers excepts that XI will solve their whole organization interfacing problems (and the world hunger as well...:)...
even when it comes to the responsible systems that creates the file(sometimes with bugs and problems even before XI came to the org.).as in every developed application or out of the box one, the application has to take care of its outputs and deal with errors. when it cant deliver what other systems expects her to it has to inform some one...
When it comes to the Adapter frame work XI expects the system in its landscape to be responsible for the data they send (well formed and with the defined structure...IDocs,XML,flat files).
as mentioned in my colleagues previous postings you can take care of data verification during mapping and so..
I belive it is possible to monitor the incoming file before it is parsed to XML (not sure it is the right way to) and maybe we'll get a solution to that in the future (today we can monitor the comm. channel wether its configures well or not,maybe it will be possible in the future to alert when an incoming file is empty)

Hi Aparna,
I feel the problem in your content conversion parameters is with
statement.fieldNames and ignoreRecordsetName
When you are confirguring receiver file adapter for file content conversion the above one is not required. Please refer below link for details on configuring content conversion in file adapter

PR,
Can you check the error in sender communication channel?
Go to RWB ---> Component Monitoring ---> Adapter Engine ---> Communication cahnnel monitoring --> it displays new page. Then give your file sender communication cahnnel name. There you will definitely see some error.
The error what you are getting is a different to this one. Can you please check the error what I have given above path.

Error in configuring File Sender Adapter with File Content Conversion

Hi
i am designing a File to File scenario using file content conversion in which the input is comma separated file and output is a XML document.
mentioned below are the configuration information:
Recordset Name: Substr
Substr.fieldSeparator: ,
Substr.endSeparator: 'nl'
Substr.fieldNames: Name, Password
Substr.keyFieldValue: Name
and the error i can see in adapter framework is:

plz help me ASAP.
thanks and regards,
Varun Joshi

Hi Varun...
Regarding ur error.....the name and password u send in csv is not getting recognised.. so u have to check the data type structure.
there must be a recordset name and subelement must be recordset structure..the data type must be
<datatypename>
 <recordsetname>
 <recordsetructurename>
 <name>
 <password>
please try in this format and ur name and password will get recognised

Mail Adapter and File content conversion.

I have a scenario to send data from SAP to 4 different boards. I have used a Multi mapping for this scenario. I am using Proxy for SAP to xi and SOAP, File and Mail adapter for the external connections.
Questions:
1) I need to send a mail in CSV or Excell format in one scenario. I have used AF_StrictXml2Plain Module but its not working? any thoughts?
2) In the file adapter I have to add the YYYYMMDD (current Date) to the file name? when I use timestamp i get the time too, any way of getting only date? I cant use the Variable substitution as i dont have date in my payload.
3) Receiver File content conversion:
My Message Type Looks like this
MT_XX_XX
     Row
        title
        xxx
I have used these parameters:
Recordset Structure: Row
Row.addHeaderLine : 0
Row.fieldSeparator : ,
Row.endSeparator: 'nl'
am I doing something worng, the file content conversion doesnt work.
Please let me know
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Make sure u are using the bean before the mail adapter bean.
Before using the file content conversion make sure that there are no substructures in it , in order to use addheader line as 0. else use addheaderline 3 and give the headerline as comma seperated values
for e.g if this is the type then addheader line= 0
Type 1 :
Record_Mt
     Row
         field1
         field2
else if this the type then addheaderline = 3
*Type 2: *
Record_Mt
     Row1
         field1
         field2
     Row2
         field1
         field2
add module like this
localejbs/sap.com/AF_Modules/StrictXml2PlainBean
with the module key e.g. key
for type 1 struct (as above )add parameter- key as singleRecordType and value as Row with comma seperated value. (remember header line is 0)
for type 2 structure (as above )add parameter- key as recordTypes and value as Row1, Row2 with comma seperated value. (remember header line is 3)

I want to write only folowiing DATA structure to file. I do not want to wite contents of TYPE structure
<DATA>
 <LineItem> <LineEntry>234567891234567890123456789012345678901234567890</LineEntry>

 </LineItem>
<DATA>
In the receiver file adpater I have follwoing File content conversion parameters.
RecordSetStructure: DATA,LineItem,*
*.addHeaderLine 0
*.fieldFixedLengths 301
*.fixedLengthTooShortHandling Error
*.endSeparator nl
LineItem.fieldSeparator nl
DATA.fieldSeparator nl
While testing I got following error. Looks like it is expecting some values for FileItem element in the XML.
Error Attempt to process file failed with java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure 'FileItem' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'

How to resolve this issue? I appreciate your help.
Thank you,

Balaji,
I would suggest to remove FileItem and LineItem in your receiver datatype. They are increasing the hierarchy of your content conversion. If you do that then you will have
<ns1:MT_Info_File xmlns:ns1="urn:http://freemanco.com/xi/info_list">
<TYPE>
<FileName>DD11022007</FileName>
</TYPE>
<DATA><LineEntry>234567891234567890123456789012345678901234567890</LineEntry>
<LineEntry>95473523647586969587265245437586979798376524253586</LineEntry>
<DATA>
</ns1:MT_Info_File>
Then in content converstion give this parameters:
Record structure : TYPE,FileName,DATA,LineEntry
TYPE.fieldfixedlengths : 0
FileName.fieldfixedlenghts:0
DATA.fieldfixedlenghts:0
LineEntry.fieldfixedlengths:301
LineEntry.endSeparator:'nl'
Then it should work. Also you can use FileName in your variable substituition. Also please see this weblog on how to use FileName in variable substitution:
/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12
If you dont want to remove FileItem and LineItem then add these also in your content conversion. Then the parameters would be:
Recordset: TYPE,FileItem,FileName,DATA,LineItem,LineEntry
TYPE.fieldfixedlengths : 0
FileItem.fieldfixedlengths:0
FileName.fieldfixedlenghts:0
DATA.fieldfixedlenghts:0
LineItem.fieldfixedlengths : 0
LineEntry.fieldfixedlengths:301
LineEntry.endSeparator:'nl'

File Content Conversion - Error in keyfield Value

Hello experts,
I am doing file content conversion for a file to file scenario. The input file is a csv file which is converted to xml using the file content conversion. The key field of input file is used for implementing conversion.
While testing the FCC, I noticed that if the keyfield value is wrong for a record in the file, the record is ignored altogether without throwing any errors or warnings. Is there any way to notify if any records have been ignored as a result of incorrect keyfield value??
Thanks in advance!
RR

There seems to be NO way to handle it in FCC.

u can think of work arounds by handling it in mapping....
