File Content Conversion - documentation, especially for all parameters?
Hi,
Can anyone point me to do for the File Content Conversion documentation? especailyl for all the parapters for record set structures? I've found some articles, posts here and there, but nothing that just lists them all.
I'm try to parse a flatfile thats simply looks like this:
abc
d
e
Into a single recordset with 3 structures..
the first struct has 3 fields, 1 char each
then 2nd structure has 1 field
then the 3rd structure has 1 field
however, no matter what I try, the engine always seems to try to parse the 2nd line as the first structure type.. thus complaining line 2 can't be converted to the first strucuture format...
Here are couple of weblogs

File content conversion - sender adapter for Header and detail records
Hi Experts,
I am receiving a field of fixed length content format.(Header)The first line of the file will follow the structure X having some fields and (DetailRecord)subsequent lines in the file will follow structure Y having somes fields.There is no record identifier for Header and Detail records.In one file first line is Header records and remaining subsequent line is DetailRecord.What are the parameters we have to set for sender file content conversion parameters as i donot have any key field and key field value.And in one file we have only one header records ( first line) and n number of detail records from 2nd line onwards.
Thanks

the desired o/p is
a b c d e
Any idea on this
Thanks
AmitHi Amit,
You can try using this approach.
You can create two data types.
The input data type is of the input file format.
The output data type can have all the five tags (Name1, Age1, Name, City and age) under one header tag(data1), instead of two tags(Data1, data) in the input file.
Then in the receiver channel u can define the reordesetStructure -->
recordset,data1,FileNameNode
This will produce the output data in one line.

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

What is File Content Conversion?
File content conversion is used for converting flat files (fixed lenght, comma seperated) into XML messages for further processing by an integration engine. The internal XI processing (mapping, routing etc) is based on XML messages hence you need messages to be converted to XML.
SAP By default understands xml data structure. If your file is coming in an xml format you can process it as it is.
In case of file that is coming with a delimiter then you need to have File content conversion for SAP adpater to conver file into an XML structure which will then go to next step of Message Mapping.
Is knowledge of any programming language required?
No
What is its function?
Check these blogs for content conversion,

This is my Input xml file.
<ns:FILEINPUT_MT xmlns:ns="http://File2FileTest">
<RECORD>
<Row>
<FirstName>Susie</FirstName>
<LastName>Tony</LastName>
<City>London</City>
<Country>UK</Country>
</Row>
</RECORD>
</ns:FILEINPUT_MT>
<b>Processing Parameters</b>
Target Directory = C:/Test
File Name Scheme = xi_output.txt
File Construction Mode = Add Time Stamp
File Type = Binary
<b>Content Conversion Parameters</b>
Recordset Structure : RECORD
RECORD.endSeparator = nl
RECORD.fieldSeparator = ;
After Activate and providing the input xml file, xi_output.txt file was generated. But the file content was shown only with Susie i.e. with First Name only. I need xi_output.txt file should have all the four fields (FirstName, LastName, City, Country)
Could some one help me to resolve the issue?
Thanks in advance

Required help for Identifying diff. items in file content conversion.
Hi All,
I've to use a file content conversion parameters for a .txt file in which there are two objects. One is a header and the other is a item detail.
How do we get or mark the difference between both so that XI recognizes the particular line is a Header and the other is a Item detail
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Sree.Hi
Make use of a field which is common to header and item line which will always hold different values for header and item. Or otherwise if possible, add an extra field in the header and item lines, say 'Key' and use it in the 'Key Field Name' parameter in the adapter configuration. See this for details - [File Content Conversion for Complex Structures|http://www.riyaz.net/blog/index.php/2008/02/20/xipi-file-content-conversion-for-complex-structures/].

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

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

Upload flat file (Content Conversion Parameters)
Hello,
I am still trying to upload a flat text file to XI. Its a non separator file.
Here the error message from the XI adaper engine:

Why do i get that error message? How to fill Key field name correctly? In my opinion i dont need key fields for CONTROL because of the occurence of one.
Any idea?Thanks to all. So "Key Field Name" is just symbolic?
Here are my new settings:

Both key fields are the first entries in the substructures.

when iam doing ,iam getting an error
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'TOTALSET.fieldFixedLengths' or 'TOTALSET.fieldSeparator' is missing Consistency check: no. of arguments in 'TOTALSET.fieldFixedLength' does not match 'TOTALSET.fieldNames' (0 <> 1)

Please help in resoving the error.
Thanks in Advance
SrinivasHi Srivinas,
your file structure is as below
01,021000021,G4886704,080919,0742,001,,,2
02,G4886704,021000021,1,080918,0742,,2
03,000000135073477,,010,105303839,,,015,489113155,,,045,489039455,,,072,73700
So it's easy, you have to use KEYFIELD option, coz you have something like that :
Line 1 : keyfield = 01 following by a limited number of columns (e.g 30 fields for Structure1)
Line 2 : keyfield = 02 following by a limited number of columns (e.g 14 fields for Structure2)
Line 3 : keyfield = 03 following by a limited number of columns (e.g 23 fields for Structure3)
Thanks to the Keyfield, you define a field which is present in each line that you can used to distinguished the different structures of lines. In your case, it seems that the keyfield is the first column (01, 02, 03).
Try to use that:
Recorset = TOTALSET (and don't use option "ignoreRecordsetName : true")
Recordset structure =Structure1,1,Structure2,(star),Structure3,(start) (the difficulty will be to find the good use of "*" and "1", but after some tests you will find the good one).
Note: replace (start) by the character " * "
Key field value = keyfield
Key field type = String (case sensitive)
Structure1.fieldNames = keyfield,field2, field3 etc.. of Structure1
Structure2.fieldNames = keyfield,field2, field3 etc.. of Structure2
Structure3.fieldNames = keyfield,field2, field3 etc.. of Structure3
and then you will have a XML like that:
TOTALSET
Structure1 and all its fieldN
Structure2 and all its fieldN
Structure2 and all its fieldN
Structure3 and all its fieldN
Structure3 and all its fieldN
TOTALSET
Structure1 and all its fieldN because I used Structure1,1
Structure3 and all its fieldN

So as you can see, i wanna produce a flat file that will have line or record for each node, it doesn't matter that it has a hierarchy or a deeper level, it should be a simple flat file...
The thing is that i have been trying to setup the receiver comm. channel and it's raising some errors like Could not process due to error:
<i>java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'java.lang.Exception: Consistency error: more fields found in XML structure than specified in conversion parameters! (Value 'XXXX')', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'</i>
I have checked this blog:
/people/karthiknarayan.kesavan2/blog/2007/08/22/file-content-conversion-for-multi-hierarchical-structure
Unfortunately i don't know if there's another way to achieve this...Jerry,
it easy if you go with multi mapping concept and without BPM if you are above >XI3.0 SP14.and use Append mode in the receiver file adapter.
just create the target structure like root under that Man_Del_Header,Man_Header,Detail,Trailer at the same level but got be careful with occurences.
<b>Source:</b>
I think from your structure you have
Man_Del_Header (1-unb)
Man_Header (1-1)
detail (0-unb ) may be (1-unb)
trailer (1-1)
create <b>target DT</b> like:
ROOT
..Man_Del_Header (1-1)
..Man_Header (1-1)
..detail (0-unb ) may be (1-unb)
..trailer (1-1)
all are at same level under ROOT.
create MT,MI,MM,IM.
in MM just map correspoding fields and if you have any unbounded onces map the nodes too. and map Man_Del_Header in the source to MT_XYZ (important)
and in the MM go to MESSAGES tab and change the occurences of the target Message to 0-unbounded same way in the interface mapping 0-unbounded.
here it create anothe extra node in the mapping something like Message1,this is ok.
and in ID just create all other objects like as usual except creating Interface determination ,in that select the extended radio button.
in reciever File CC use FCC ,would be very simple in the recordsetstrcture give
your four nodes Man_Del_Header,Man_Header,Detail,Trailer.
and use either fixed or field seperator.use append mode in recv File CC otherwise it will generate files as many occurences your source "Man_Del_Header" has ,cos we are mapping it to the MT--xyz .
thats it you are ready to go...
if any error post back here again.
you can make use of this thread
/people/jin.shin/blog/2006/02/07/multi-mapping-without-bpm--yes-it146s-possible (here there are two target DT ,but you just create one DT,remaining are similar)
good luck.

Inconsistent Data for File Content Conversion
HI XI Friends,
Its IDOC to File Scanario,
File is of .txt file..
my IDOC contains 14 segments
some times some segements will not come with Idoc..
first three characters represent segment numbers..
structure of txt file
00112345 address1 street1
00212345 office1 street1
00312345 homw2 city2 street2
if that IDOC doent contain 002..then .txt file should be..
00112345 address1 street1
00312345 homw2 city2 street2
all Segement in that idoc are optional..
if I use Fixed lengh in File Content Conversion then ther would be blank row for 002 if that IDOc doent Conatin
00112345 address1 street1
00312345 homw2 city2 street2
please guide me...how to use content conversion in this case..
regards
MunnaHi ,
Thank you very much for your response..
.txt file is of fixed lenths with no field Seperator
IDOC contains number segements..
the resultant txt file if we created first 3 segements data..
00112345 address1 street1
00212345 office1 street1
00312345 homw2 city2 street2
if we create 001 segment and 003 segement the text file should be
00112345 address1 street1
00312345 homw2 city2 street2
but for new row of each segment ... endseperator 'nl' after first segemnt in Content conversion parameter and 002 segement values..and again endSeperator 'nl'...
if we are not sending 002 segement data in the IDOC ..then it will give blank
00112345 address1 street1
00312345 homw2 city2 street2
my requirement is if we dont send 002 segement data then no blank row .how to check if the segement is having data or not and also how to declare it in Content Conversion parameters of File Adapters.
please guide me
regards
Munna
