File Content Conversion (FCC ) to IDoc Scenario

Hi All,
I have a Flat File to Idoc Scenario. Sample flat file looks as shown below.

where Records A indicate File Header, Z indicates File Trailer
Recodrs B indicateds Material header and Would be repeating multiple times
No. of B Records = No. of Idocs generated with corresponding C records data which indicates Component Rows (multiple)
i.e as many B records file contains, that many Idoc will be created
For Mapping I require B and C Records. Field Separator is Pipe | symbol
I need to Ignore A B C Z
How to define the source structure and the respective FCC Parameters.
Regads,
Varun

Hi,
For Mapping I require B and C Records. Field Separator is Pipe | symbol
I need to Ignore A B C Z
two statements are ambiguous.
I assume u want only B and C records.
Since the structure is little complex, u can gat the whole record as a single element into Mapping and then u can take only those u want to access and map.
MT_Name
Records
Data(0..unbounded)
Now in Data u have all the records.
If you dont want at all these A and Z records to come to mapping(IE) then u need to go for a small adapter module.
Deploy it and use in the modules sequence...

Limitations of File Content Conversion (FCC)

Hi
I want to know the Limitations of File Content Conversion (FCC) while defining for a particular structure.
I was bit confused from the [SAP Help |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/EN/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm]
It says "There can be a fixed or variable number of substructures in a recordset." but from sdn i found
[Content Conversion in File Adapter |Content Conversion in File Adapter]
It will support "A maximum of 3 hierarchy level will be supported in FCC"
Is <recordset> Mandatetory in for FCC, what if we dont have <recordset> in the structure.
Till what hierarchy level it supports
what is the limitation of FCC
Regards,
Varun

Varun,
Both statements are true:
Consider, for instance, a file containing orders. You could have:
HEADER;123;456;11112 (containing sender 123, receiver 456, order number 11112)
PARTNER;OR;234 (containing the ordering partner number 234)
PARTNER;DL;235 (containing the delivery address 235)
DATE;OR;20090226 (containing the order date 26/02/2009)
DATE;DL;20090228 (containing the delivery date 28/02/2009)
LINE;9998;12 (article number 9998, quantity 12)
LINE;9996;25 (article number 9996, quantity 25)
LINE;9991;3 (article number 9991, quantity 3)
HEADER;123;456;11113 (2nd order containing sender 123, receiver 456, order number 11113)
PARTNER;OR;234 (containing the ordering partner number 234)
PARTNER;DL;237 (containing the delivery address 237)
DATE;OR;20090226 (containing the order date 26/02/2009)
DATE;DL;20090301 (containing the delivery date 01/03/2009)
LINE;9998;4 (article number 9998, quantity 4)
Parsing such a file with FCC would be possible, provided there's an identifier that indicates the type of line (like 'HEADER', 'PARTNER', etc). This is an example of There can be a variable number of substructures in a recordset.
If the records do not contain an identifier from which you can see the line type, FCC can only parse this if the order of the various structure types is fixed, so that it can determine from the line number what type of record this is. This would be an example of There can be a fixed number of substructures in a recordset.
Now, about A maximum of 3 hierachy level will be supported in FCC. In the FCC, there are three levels: the recordset (one order in the above example), the record (a line in the file) and the field (the order number, for instance). The FCC does not support files with deeper nesting. For instance, if a line item in your flat file could also contain a delivery date, FCC does not support this.
Hope this helps,
Koen

FIle Content Conversion Problem in IDOC-XI-File Scenario

Dear All,
I am doing IDOC-XI-FILE scenario.
I am facing one problem related to File Content Coversion.My requirement was to generate a dynamic file like %store_code%_%current_date%_sitemaster.xml , I have completed the dynamic generation successfully .
Now there is slight change in the requirement ,we have to suppress the current_date node of the xml content . i have tried to suppress the current_date using these DATE.fieldFixedLengths 0 , Date.fixedLengthTooShortHandling Cut , But I am unable to suppress it Can some body provide me the details on this .
The output xml version generated by Reciever file adapter is as below :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_SITE_MASTER xmlns:ns0="http://sample-xitest.com/sitemaster">
- <SITE_DATA>
<STORE_CODE>N002</STORE_CODE>
<TITLE_MEDI>Company</TITLE_MEDI>
<STORE_NAME>Mount Road</STORE_NAME>
<STREET>Chennai</STREET>
<COUNTRY>IN</COUNTRY>
<SALES_TAX_NO>12345678910</SALES_TAX_NO>
</SITE_DATA>
</ns0:MT_SITE_MASTER>
Plz provide me the code I have to write in the file content conversion .
Thanks in advance
Regards
Prabhat

If u see my earlier reply, I mentioned that u can not suppress the field from the one node.i.e Form SITE_DATA data type u can not suppress the field called CURRENT_DATE.
My suggestion is that , modify the Data type in such a way that you will be having two nodes as I have mentioned earlier. Then use the Suppress Logic for the Current Date.
So it will look like this-
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_SITE_MASTER xmlns:ns0="http://sample-xitest.com/sitemaster">
- <SITE_DATA>
<STORE_CODE>N002</STORE_CODE>
<TITLE_MEDI>Company</TITLE_MEDI>
<STORE_NAME>Mount Road</STORE_NAME>
<STREET>Chennai</STREET>
<COUNTRY>IN</COUNTRY>
<SALES_TAX_NO>12345678910</SALES_TAX_NO>
</SITE_DATA>
<CURR_DATE>
<CURRENT_DATE>20051105</CURRENT_DATE>
</CURR_DATE>
</ns0:MT_SITE_MASTER>
So ur SITE_DATA is not having a field called CURRENT_DATE. This field is in separate node (segment ) called CURR_DATE. Now u can use the Suppress Logic for the same like this.
CURR_DATE.fieldFixedLengths - 0
CURR_DATE.fixedLengthTooShortHanling - Cut
And in your Variable Substitution you can use the date from the other segment called CURR_DATE.
Hope this solves ur problem.

Moorthy

Doubt regarding Recever file adapter file content conversion (FCC)

Hi Expetrts, below is the my target structure.

Hi Dhanush,
 It is better always if u have a structure with Header and trailers if u have a subsrtuctures in it & always try make it in this format:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<MT_ContentConversion_Test>
 <Header>
 <F1>HF1</F1>
 <F2>HF2</F2>
 </Header>
 <Item>
 <F1>IF1</F1>
 <F2>IF2</F2>
 <Item>
 <Trailer>
 <F1>TF1</F1>
 <F2>TF2</F2>
 </Trailer>
</ns0:MT_ContentConversion_Test>

File content conversion:move files to a new directory

hi all,
I have a file content conversion sender and receiver scenario.Now my doubt is: XI is running on sap27 server.Input file is being created by an ABAP program in r/3 and file being put in sap29 server.
In source directory if i am giving the sap29 path it is not working.Is there any way that i can write a OS command to move files from 29 to 27 before message processing ??
Any other option available??
thanks,
Nisheeta

hi,
Yes the basis people have shared the folder and they have mapped the sap29 folder into sap27 using I:\ drive
But the files are not getting picked....am i giving the source directory wrong??
I am giving I:\Folder_Name
suggestions needed
thanks,

IDOC to File - File Content Conversion Problem

Hi,
The scenario is IDOC to File. I am using file content conversion for my receiver adapter. The receiver adapter parks the file in the receiver system but the file has no data. In SXMB_MONI on checking the payload at every step, the data is transformed successfully. I am able to see the data at the receiver payload but the file in the receiver system has got no data.
I have used all possible parameters in the receiver adapter:-
Recordset.fieldFixedLengths 1,1,1
Recordset.endSeparator 'nl'
Recordset.fieldNames rec_type,action,del_in
Recordset.fixedFieldType char
Kindly advice if some more parameters need to be added.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
if you're using stnadard SAP idoc
you can try using the same approach as specified
in this doc (but with module IDOC to XML insdead of XML to IDOC)

File Content conversion - IDOC to Fixed length File

Hi,
Scenario : SAP R/3(IDOC) -> XI -> Fixed Length file
IDOC is sending from SAP R/3, XI has to do the mapping and send a Fixed length File to /tmp in XI.
When I am using the message Protocol as "File" in the Receiver communication channel, XML file is writing to /tmp. When I am using "File Content Conversion" as a message protocol,Empty File is writing. Can anybody tell me why empty file is creating. Can we use File content Conversion in this scenario. Is there any additional parameter or settings required?
Receiver communication channel settings:
Message Protocol: File Content Conversion
File type : Binary
Recordstructure : MT_V_PER01
Name Value
MT_V_PER01.fieldFixedLengths 25,35
MT_V_PER01.fieldNames PERSNR,NAME
File Data Type : DT_V_PER01,
Message type : MT_V_PER01
IDOC type : WP_PER01.
Expecting your expert advice.

File to File scenario, file content conversion

HI there,
I am facing this scenario, flat file -> XI -> flat file. Files are fixed length ones and .txt.
the structure of the incoming file is something like:
field1field2field3field4
field1field2field3field4field5
That means that there is no separation between fields (neither comma nor space) and there are optional fields that may appear or not.
My aim is to transform this file into another file, XI will do some maps with some fields but the rest will be the same (same fieldnames and same field lengths). So, the outcoming file should be similar as the incoming one:
field1field2field3field4(transformed)
field1field2field3field4field5
These are my FCC parameters (i think i have to use FCC):
Row.fieldNames= field1,field2,field3....
Row.fieldFixedLengths=1,3,4....
Row.processConfiguration=FromConfiguration
Row.endSeparator='nl'
...and my data type structure:
DT_XX
Record
 Row
 field1
 field2
Here are my questions:
I have configurated the file content conversion in sender and receiver adapter, are they both necessary or should i only configurate the sender??
How can i manage the fields that are not mandatory?
What should be the transfer mode, binary or text?
I am a new come in development so, could anyone of you please give some support??
Thanks in advance and kind regards,
David

Hi David,
I have configurated the file content conversion in sender and receiver adapter, are they both necessary or should i only configurate the sender??
YES.
Suppose you only confgure it for sender then the target file that is generated will be in XML format.
How can i manage the fields that are not mandatory?
If the inbound structure has less fields than specified in the configuration then the XML outbound structure the you can set
Row.missingLastfields = ignore / add / error
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
What should be the transfer mode, binary or text?
If it is a txt file then text and set code page as UTF-8else binary.
Cheers,

Idoc 2 file - file content conversion in receiver

Hi,
My scenario is idoc to file.
if i want to use file content conversion at receiver side,
so i need to create record set according to sender side data type or receiver data type?
plz give some inputs reg. this.
Thanks

Hi,
There is problem while refreshing in sap xi also.
when i pass new parameter like 7 in my recordset structure,
it is immediately reflecting in CC monitoring.
error it is showing that '7'.
but if i remove that in record set structure
(after activating that in ID)
even though
if i stop and start my CC manually also,
still it is showing that error in CC monitoring
like '7'
basic concept of this file content conversion is
I have to keep at least field separator (ie 'nl' )for outer most node element ie Customer_copy and record set stru. as Customer_copy
is it right?
I tried my own way...still it is giving that error.
what could my fieldSeparator, endSeparator, for ur last case plz tell me?

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

    DT_Row.processConfiguration: FromConfiguration

3. I did check in Adapter Monitor that Both Sender and receiver adapter are showing green and It was showing 'Adapter is up and running: But no messages processed'
4. I did check the SXMB_MONI which was showing " Scheduled for Outbound processing"
5. In SXMB_MONI outbound processing payload was picking up the file and also inbound processing showing the same.
6. my source folder and destination folder are very simple c:/praveenfiles/input and c:/praveenfiles/output
    files are source file praveen.txt and destination file praveenOP.xml
Please help me in finding out the error to see the output file in my output folder.

File content conversion scenario-empty file

Hi all,
I am doing file content conversion for my sender flat file. And I want to generate XML file in my receiver location.When I check with test tab in my message map in IR , no structure gets generated in RESULT.Overalls cenario is working fine and message is processed successfully but empty file is getting generated in target directory.When I check the payload in message content in RWB communication channel monitoring,it's picking data correctly from the file.I am not getting what might have gone wrong with my message mapping in IR. It's not showing any syntax error.Even it's not generating target message structure in Results window of test Messsage mapping.Could you suggest what mistake might be there in message mapping.

Hi all,
I am getting this message in message monitor(SXMB_MONI).
com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException
thrown during application mapping
com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_Flat_content_conv_:
RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformatio~
I am able to see the output structure in test window of message mapping in IR and communication channel monitoring is also showing successful message.
fcc parameters used are:
Header.fieldNames KEY,EMPID,NAME,COMPANY,PHONE
Header.fieldFixedLengths 1,4,20,15,12
Header.processConfiguration FromConfiguratiion
Header.keyFieldValue H
Detail.fieldNames KEY,COMPANY,LOCATION
Detail.fieldFixedLengths 1,15,10
Detail.processConfiguration FromConfiguratiion
Detail.keyFieldValue D
Please suggest the mistake in mapping

TRAILER1 1..1
-- trailer1
TRAILER2 1..1

ignoreRecordsetName     : true

File is :
H1hh1hhhhhhhhh2

Xddd1dddd2dddd3
Xddd4dddd5dddd6
Xddd7dddd8dddd9
*Sss*
SEKss2
in RWB, Channel CC_FILE_Sender_FccDemo: Empty document found. Proceed without sending message
I think the problem is in FCC paramters..
Could please have a look and correct me
Regards
Ram

Ram,
The problem which i can see is your key field values in your test file. Remember you should have the key field value in each new line at the same place.
For example you have given your text file as shown below...
File Given By You is :
>H1hh1hhhhhhhhh2
>*Ddd *
>Xddd1dddd2dddd3
>Xddd4dddd5dddd6
>Xddd7dddd8dddd9
>*Sss *
>SEKss2
Compair the above file with the below one..
>H1hh1hhhhhhhhh2
>*Ddd *
>Xddd1dddd2dddd3
>Xddd4dddd5dddd3
>Xddd7dddd8dddd3
> *Sss *
>SEKss2
If you notice, for details I have given key field value 3 in each line & at same place.
One more thing just use the KeyFieldName only one ( just follow the same blog which I have given, to understand how to use the KeyFieldName )
e.g.
Document Name :MT_File
Document Namespace :urn:test:FileFcctoIdoc
RecordSet name :
RecordsetStructure :HEADER1,1,HEADER2,1,DETAILS,*,TRAILER1,1,TRAILER2,1
RecordSet Structure: Ascending
RecordSet Per message : *
Key Field Name : KF
