Hi Kiran,
You can try following option
As you said Customer number field may appear if it does not appear then whether there will be 10 zeros or a space?.
In this case create a string as a source structure .Treat the record in the file as a string.
1) Case 1 : 10 zeros.
In message mapping split the string by length using substring function into target structure.
2) case 2 : Space.
Check whether in string  if first character is space then calculate the length using space and distribute in target structure
else use logic mentioned in case 1.
In communication channel maintain following entry:
ignoreRecordsetName  = true
Row.fieldNames = line
Row.endSeparator = 'nl'
Row.fieldSeparator = 'nl'
