FCC (File Content conversion)-In sender

Hi All,
Using FCC in sender i need to convert text to xml.Such that my text file format is
Line1
Line2
Line3
All the three lines is having some data..My source data type structure is
DT_Emp
>Emp_Info
   >Header
      ID----
(0..1)
   >Details
       Line----
(0..unbounded)
Now i need to get data from text file into only line element..My ID element should be blank..XML should have ID element but it should not be populated from input file.How to get this using FCC..Is there any parameters for this?
Can anyone give some useful ideas
Regards
Venkat

File content conversion on Sender Side

Hi,
I am doing file content conversion on sender side.when i am executing the scenario,i am getting the following error in sxmb_moni:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?> DOC_HEADER ...
when i right click on the pyaload and select view source
its displaying the whole flat file with the following line at the beginning:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="yes" ?>
i have given all the parameters correctly....
in sxmb_moni.....the error category is Mapping and the error id id EXCEPTION_DURING_EXECUTE
Please help me with this error.
thanks n regards,
anuradha

Hi !!
The best way to debug would be to add TRACE statements in your mappigs. In both Graphical and java Mapping.
Trace out the entire output of java mapping and see if this is the input that the next mapping expects.
For trace , http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/c8/98e7d5c1620642973565ea3dd319d1/content.htm

Key field values for file content conversion at sender communicationchannel

Hi all,
I am working on scenario File to Idoc.In this scenario at the sender side we configure the file content conversion for .CSV file.
In the flat file i am having more than one orders, XI will pick the file and creates a separate Idoc for each sales order at r/3.
We have similar fields "Order Item Number" both header and item.
If we got '00000' on the Header item then it should create a new idoc at the r/3 side other wise it will create line item.
Order item number will be 00000 for header but it will differ from order item to item.
source structure
Order Header
Order type
Sold-to-code
PO number
Order item number
Order date
AdresName1
AdresName2
Street and House number
Postal Code
City
Country Code
Filler
Order Item
Order type
Sold-to-code
PO number
Order item number
Order date
Product code
Order quantity
Item text
Filler
Now I have some questions....
I don't have standard filed values to give the key fileds at source structure.
I need to create the Idoc at r/3 system for each individual record.
Is it possible to create new idoc with out using the Key filed value?
If it is possible then how can i proceed with fcc?
please give me your valuable suggestions
Best Regards,
satya

Hi,
Just check the Content Conversion Parameters- Recordset Structure.
If you have filled in this parameter with
Header,1,Item,1
then change it to
Header,1,Item,3

Supress Column Heading - File Content Conversion in Sender Adapter

Hi,
Let me give a more clear picture about my scenario. I need to convert CSV File to XML output:-
My source file has column heading and values. The sample data is mentioned hereunder:-
PERNR;KID;PNALT;NACHN;NAME2;VORNA
;1200;1200;Angus
I have created a data type as under:-
DT_LegacyEmployee (Category - Complex Type)
     Employees (Category - Element, Occurence - 1)
          Header (Category - Element, Occurence - 0...1)
               PERNR_H
               KID_H
               PNALT_H
               NACHN_H
               NAME2_H
               VORNA_H
          Employee (Categroy - Element, Type - DT_LegacyEmployee_Row, Occurence - 0...unbounded)
               PERNR
               KID
               PNALT
               NACHN
               NAME2
               VORNA
The file conversion parameters in the file sender adapter are mentioned hereunder:-
Document Name - MT_LegacyEmployee
Document Namespace - http://abc.com/xi
Recordset Name - Employees
Rescordset Structure - Header,1,Employee,*
Recordsets per Message - 1
Key Field Type - String (Case Sensitive)
Employee.fieldSeparator - ;
Employee.endSeparator - 'nl'
Employee.fieldNames - PERNR,KID,PNALT,NACHN,NAME2,VORNA
I dont' have a key field value. How do we remove the header and show only the values in the xml output. I have searched the forum topics as well checked many blogs related to file content conversion, but nothing helped. Kindly advice how to fix this issue. Thanks in advance.
Regards.
Praveen

Hi Praveen,
Change your File Adapter as below
Document Name - MT_LegacyEmployee
Document Namespace - http://abc.com/xi
Recordset Name - Employees
Rescordset Structure - Employee,*
Recordsets per Message - 1
Key Field Type - String (Case Sensitive)
Employee.fieldSeparator - ;
Employee.endSeparator - 'nl'
Employee.fieldNames - PERNR,KID,PNALT,NACHN,NAME2,VORNA
There is no need for the Header required in the data type.
DT_LegacyEmployee (Category - Complex Type)
Employees (Category - Element, Occurence - 1)
Employee (Categroy - Element, Type - DT_LegacyEmployee_Row, Occurence - 0...unbounded)
PERNR
KID
PNALT
NACHN
NAME2
VORNA
Now the trick is in the mapping program
Lets assume your mapping looks like
MT_LegacyEmployee ---> MT_TargetEmployee
- Employees ---> Records
   - Employee ---> Record
     - PERNR ---> TargetPERNR
     - .. so on
When you do a mapping from Employee ---> Record apply the following logic.
(PERNR)--->
             (TestEquals =) --->(NOT)--->
(Constant) --->                                (IF)
(PERNR)                       (IF Without Else) ---> (Record)
                                               (THEN)
                            (Employee)--->
When doing this make sure RightClick on PERNR and Select Context ---> Employees.
By default context would be from Employee and it will give you an error of XSD format. So make sure you are changing the context.

File content conversion in Sender Adapater for multiple occurances

Hi ,
I am mapping from flat file to idoc .
My flat file is a tab demilited
Since the idoc would have structure
like header , lineitem , schedule
in my flat file conversion
i am giving recordset structure
as header,1,lineitem ,,schedule,
since lineitem would be repeated many times
Bt if i give * i need to give a keyfieldname
which would mean that keyfieldname has to appaer in header and schedule .
since in my case my Column values in header , lineitem and schedule are different
how can i do the file conversion in this case
i can doing something like this
header.keyFieldValue ""
schedule.keyFieldValue ""
header.keyFieldInStructure ignore
schedule.keyFieldInStructure ignore
i am not even sure if thats the correct way
Thanks

Reg:File content conversion for Sender File Adaptor

Hi all,
            i would like to know , how the file content conversion is written for the below mentioned XML code. The flat file will have only the table name and the fieldname
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Mt_File xmlns:ns0="http:/file_to_idoc">
   <query_table>ztable1</query_table>
   <row_count/>

      <item>
         <fieldname>zempno</fieldname>
      </item>
   </Fields>
</ns0:Mt_File>

First you create the conversion rules, then you create the XML structure accordingly, not the other way.

File Content Conversion in Sender Adapater

Hi Folks ,
I am doing a file 2 file scneario using content conversion at both end
My i/p and o/p is file is tab delimited
My source xml structure is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:file_sender_mt xmlns:ns0="urn:filetofiledemo">
   <recordset>
      <data1>
         <keyfield/>
         <age1/>
      </data1>
      <data>
         <name/>
         <keyfield/>
         <age/>
         <loc>
            <keyfield/>
         </loc>
      </data>
   </recordset>
</ns0:file_sender_mt>
Data and location have the mapping 1.. unbounded
while data1 has the mapping 1.1
When I am trying to read it as a tab delimited flat file.
These are the parameters that i have set
Document Name file_sender_mt
Document Namespace urn:filetofiledemo
Recordset Name recordset
Recordset Structure data1,1,data, ,loc,
Key Field Name keyfield
data1.fieldNames keyfield,age1
ignoreRecordsetName true
recordset.fieldSeparator '0'
data1.fieldSeparator '0x09'
data1.keyFieldValue 01
data1.endSeparator '0'
data.beginSeparator '0x09'
data.fieldSeparator '0x09'
data.fieldNames name,keyfield,age
data.keyFieldValue 02
loc.fieldSeparator '0x09'
loc.beginSeparator '0x09'
loc.endSeparator '0'
loc.keyFieldValue 03
loc.fieldNames keyfield
My file is getting picked up . I dont see any message in message monitoring and neither anything in moni .
No error in adapater
but the file is not getting created .
if i change the message protocol to file and send t above xml file . the scneario works fine
any reasons for the above behaviour
Thanks
Amit

I have found you cant use nested element in sender adapater
so i have chnage my source structure to
Now if i give my i/p file as
01 age1
02 25 03
file is getting pciked up
bt if i give it as
01 age1 02 25 03
which is the structure i expect my i/p file it is failing to read with the error
Error: Conversion of complete file content to XML format failed around position 0: Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 1 according to structure 'data1':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration: more elements in file csv structure than field names specified!
Does The special character ´0´ is not a separator character.
not work for sender adapater bcoz in reciever i am able to get o/p in one line and tab delimited
any idea
and since i have given my keyfield as the second field in data
02 would come at the second palce
Thanks
Amit

FCC does not support this level nesting...Ref
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
But requirement can be achieved using extra mapping
you can create a source structure that looks like
MT_Source_New..
>Record ...unbounded
>line ....1
and read the input file line by line...this can be achieved by simple FCC...Refer above link
here you need extra mapping to map it to your required source structure Employees
MT_new ---Mapping1 --- Employees
Then map Employees to Actual target structure

File Content Conversion using Sender to Mapping

I have a sender that is mapping a flat file CSV and it maps it correctly, but when it is being send to the message mapping program it fails on the input parse with an exception:
Mapping transformation: Cannot produce target element /ns0:G8328_09B_Document/ns0:G8328_09BMessageType. Check xml instance is valid for source xsd
I am using an external definition as my input for the message mapping if I import the messge from the monitor payload and change the ns: to ns0: in the test tool it maps find. Can anyone tell me how to get the File adapter to generated ns0: instead of ns: in the input message coming out of the adapter.
Payload from the file adpater:
<ns:G8328_09B_Document xmlns:ns="http://nike.com/DEYTEL/RFCToJDBCInterface">

The test tool mapping I remove the ns and replaced it with ns0.
Thanks for any help.
Arjun.

Hi Arjun,
A few points....
1. Namespace prefix being different does not cause mapping errors.
2. In your case, note the name space <b>xmlns:ns="http://nike.com/DEYTEL/RFCToJDBCInterface"</b> missing in XML generated
using IR.
3. The difference in Msg type names. After FCC it is G832<b>0</b>_09BMessageType where as in test tool it is G832<b>8</b>_09BMessageType.
Correct points 2 and 3, your issue will be solved.

Jai Shankar

Regarding file content conversion in Sender File channel

Hi all,
In one of my requirement, one file contains several details records as given below,
101,india,1001,albert,517193
101,india,1002,hilbert,517193
101,india,1003,robert,517193
102,nepal,1004,kiran,9234334
102,nepal,1008,kiran,9234334
102,nepal,1003,kiran,9234334
103,nepal,1004,kiran,9234334
103,nepal,1008,kiran,9234334
103,nepal,1003,kiran,9234334
i want to send all the records which starts with 101 to one function module and all records which starts with 102 to another function module and all records which start with 103 to some other function module. In my sender channel i am planning to use
101, 102, 103 as key field values to read them into 3 different structures.
like Recordsset structure = detail1,, detail2,,detail3,*.
Details1.keyfieldvalue = 101
Details2.keyfieldvalue = 102
Details3.keyfieldvalue = 103
Will this idea work out??
Thanks,
Balu

Hi Balu,
Yes u r correct, u can access the records by setting the key field value as u mentioned.
But other way is also by,
access the all records as similar one, so no key field value.
the whole record as a single element.In the mapping u have a string function called StartsWith.
In mapping u can specify if the incoming record starts with 101 then map it to FM1(Fumction Module 1).
If the record starts with 102 map it to FM2......
This will be very simpler i feel...
If i am nt clear pl do post the problem in detail.
Babu

File Content Conversion for Sender Channel

Hi Experts,
      We are using SAP - PI 7.11 system. We have a scenario where we wld be getting 7-8 records and the record structure repeats n no.of times in a flat-file and while converting the Flat -File data into XML data we are facing an issue , explained below with an example :
HEADER : KeyField , f2, f3, f4, f5, f6, f7, f8
RECORD1 : f1, f2, KeyField , f3, f4, f5, f6, f7 , f8
RECORD2 : f1, f2, f3, f4, KeyField, f5, f6, f7, f8
TRAILER : keyField, f1, f2, f3, f4,f5, f6, f7, f8.
Its a fixed length flat - flie. Now the problem is : we have KeyField Value for RECORD1 as '0' and when the f3 of TRAILER is '0' the record is getting formed as RECORD1 instead TRAILER even i get proper keyField value for TRAILER RECORD. Could you please tell me why its happenning so ? And please provide the solution for this. I have used all the parameters like : fieldNames, fieldfixedLengths, keyFieldValue, endSeparator and ignoreRecordsetname and lastFieldOptional and fromConfiguration.
But still i am not able to get the proper XML out of this flat - file. Could you please suggest any solution for this asap.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Lakshman

Most of the configuration seems fine,
Just validate your configuration against below configuration, which is working fine for me,
Recordset Structure : HEADER, 1, RECORD1, ,RECORD2,,TRAILER,1
Recordset Sequence : Ascending
Recordsets per message : *
Key Field Name : recid
Key Field type : string
HEADER.fieldFixedLengths     *********************
HEADER.endSeparator     'nl'
HEADER.fieldNames     ************************
HEADER.keyFieldValue     01
HEADER.keyFieldlnStructure     add
HEADER.lastFieldsOptional     YES

Question on FCC(file content conversion)

My input structure is
Header>
      <FileFormat>ewr</FileFormat>
      <Category>rfsd</Category>
      <Period>sdf</Period>
      <Entity>sfd</Entity>
      <date>sf</date>
      <LineItems>
         <ICM_MatchingGroup>sf</ICM_MatchingGroup>
         <ICM_MatchingAccount>sf</ICM_MatchingAccount>
         <Partner>fs</Partner>
         <Amount>s</Amount>
         <Currency>sf</Currency>
      </LineItems>
   </Header>
   <CompanyCode>
      <CompanyCodeValue>sf</CompanyCodeValue>
   </CompanyCode>
My reqirement is :company code should not fetced to output structure
IN FCC if m putting Header,LineItems,CompanyCode all the thing s in record structure .its fetching all the values in comma separeted structure.but i dont want to display company code in output structure.so please let me know how i will do this one

Hi,
1. Do not map the Company code to the target structure. By this way you dont need an FCC to remove it in the receiver side.
2. Or use the Following FCC.
CompanyCode.fieldFixedLengths = 0
CompanyCode.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
CompanyCode.endSeparator = '0'
Thanks
