File Content Conversion in EDI to File without Seeburger

Hello Friends,
I am using just 2 fields Name and Address in 864 Transaction code.Can anybody help me how to do File Content Conversion from EDI to Xml.as i am using only 2 levels of hierarchy..Please explain me the step by step process

Dear Kayanth,
My advice to you is if your implementing organization has more then one EDI scenario today or plan to add more EDI scenario to the business is to use the Item Field Content master with the XI.
This tool is powered by NetWeaver and allows to translate all standard EDI messages from txt file to XML.
The tool is represented today by Informatica and is used as a java file deployed in the file adapter.
This will sit-well with the XI development methodology of getting the whole EDI message into the XI in an XML format because in the future you might need more then two fields in the message so modifying the interface will take less time.
Try to look to the future of the implementing organization when it comes to interfaces.
"Quick & Dirty" is not always the best way....usually in the long run - its the worst...
Good luck.

File Content conversion at the sender adapter without Key field

Hi All,
I have a requirement ....We are using Message Transform Bean at the sender adapter (we are not going for FCC as we are tranforming a decryption) ..its is a flat file...
we dnot have a key field for one of the node .....we have total 5 nodes under parent node and one of the node does not have key field ....
NOTE: I guess we have to do either Java mapping or XSLT ..but not getting proper weblogs with program...
and not well versed with coding...i got few codes which were either not fulfilling requiremment or they use stream tranformation where it is decaprecated in NWDS and does not allow to compile it properly .
Can somebody get me a code for Java which uses Abstract tranformation ...which can full fill below requirement
parent node
              Node1
                   node 1a
                   node 1b
              Node 2
              Node 3
Input Flat file is in below format
example:
Employee Headre Flat files
Employee Detail Flat Files(this repeates numerous times as much as number of employees)
Employee Trailer Flat Files
Loan Headre Flat files
Load Detaisl Flat Files (this repeates numerous times as much as number of employees)
Loan Trailer Flat files
Assitance much appreciated thanks .

Hi Stefan,
I will rephrase the question i guess its communication gap...
1) we have an existing interface in 3.0..we are not copying the same interface to 7.1 as it was not according to standards and they are phasing out that system.
2) In 3.0 they are reading the Flat files under one record .. the structure is as follows:
Parent Node
           Node
               Row
They are reading all the flat files row by row.
and even in receiver they are reading in the similar fashion
3) In the current structure according to the FS we have to create a structure defined by them which is as below
      Employee
          Header
          Details   node 1
             Details node 1a
              Details node 1b
          Trailer
          Loan Header
          Loan Detail
          Loan Trailer
Receiver structure is
Employee
      Node (this will have the receiver fields which is about 30 fields)
4) We have pulled a sample file from 3.0 for the existing interface as we din get the sample file for existing one in FS and Iam not sure whn are they gonna send it.
5) In the existing interface payload we have everything matching even the field lengths and postions and even key fields and key fields we got from the FS
6) problem is we donot have key fields for the Details node 1a and 1b even in FS or the existing payload and we got an update from the FS consultant that we will be receiving these fields but without keyfields...
see i donot have any problem taking out the details 1a and 1b out of the details header and create the structure ,,,,but the main issue is without key field we will not be able to generate the 1a and 1b nodes or read it in the FCC or MTB (i have to use MTB as we are decryting the file from the sender).
Or is there any other method apart from java mapping or module development to handle these files

How to do Content Conversion for this structure?

Hi,
Urgent required. I have the following structure as below. There is a headerData, itemData and textData. The data that wll come into headerData could be more than one, and the same applies to the itemData and textData. The File adapter is not able to pick this file structure. It is a fixed length file at the receiver end. Could any one tell me how to do the File Content Conversion (FCC) for the structure without using the FCC module. Points to be awarded to best answer. Thaanks in advance.
The structure :
<headerData>
aaaaa
bbbb
cccc
</headerData>
<headerData>
aaaaa
bbbb
cccc
</headerData>
<headerData>
aaaaa
bbbb
cccc
</headerData>
<itemData>
fff
ggg
hhh
</itemData>
<itemData>
fff
ggg
hhh
</itemData>
<itemData>
fff
ggg
hhh
</itemData>
<textData>
fff
ggg
hhh
</textData>
<textData>
fff
ggg
hhh
</textData>
<textData>
fff
ggg
hhh
</textData>

HI,
Use the following content conversion:
I assume the data coming in the file is of below format:
Here the key field name is K for 01,02 and 03
01,aa,bb,cc
01,aa,bb,cc
02,ff,gg,hh
02,ff,gg,hh
03,hh,ff,hh
03,hh,ff,hh
If you data in the file is coming in the above way then your FCC will be
Recordse strucutre: headerData,,temData,,textData,*
Keyfield Name: K
headerData.fieldNames: a,b,c
headerData.fieldSeparator: ,
headerData.endSeparator: 'nl'
headerData.keyFieldValue: 01
Similarly for itemData and text Data
Refer the below weblog for the same:

EDI Flat file Content Conversion

Hi Experts,
I have got a question on File Content Conversion, Please have look the following structure, is it possible with FCC or what is the best possible solution for this, which is very big favour to me.
Some information about this structure,
This is EDI message in flat file structure, each segment has got 700 characters as a row, LIN item is repeating many times,
ST ,XQ , N1 , DTM, LIN, P04, N9,ZA , ZA ,ZA , etc are segments, LIN item is repeating, at the end CTT is last segment. Again from ST segment to CTT segment comes 3 more times.

Hi Suresh, Raj,
Thanks for quick reply, but we haven't got Seeburger Adapter in our landscape. Please one small clarification please this message looks to me, we can do with FCC, but i need some experties from you guys.
1. ST segment comes in one line with 700 characters - has got 5 fields 1..1 cardinolity
2. XO segment comes in another line with same length 700 ch, but 8 fields different lengths 1..1 cardinality
10 LIN segment comes in another line 700 characters, but 0..n
Can't we take structure as follows:
Header     --    0..n
    SegID ---    1..1
    field 2 -
    1..1
    field 3 -
    1..1
    field 4 -
    1..1
    field 5 ---      1..1
    Row2   -
   1..1
       SegID -
   1..1
       field2 -
   1..1
    Row6    -
    1..n (for LIN segment)
       SegID ---   1..1
       field 2 --- 1...1
Please can you give me your experties please??

File content conversion in File-to-RFC without BPM

Hi,
I am using FCC for file to RFc scenario.
My input record is in the following format:
Header record
data rec1
data rec2
Trailer record..
The parameters are used in File content conversion:
Recordset Name : Header,item
Recordset Structure: Header,1,item,*
key field name : data1
and in additional parameters:
Header.fieldNames            HI,GenDate,Ftype,Fname,Fdate
Header.keyFieldValue       Fname
Header.fieldFixedLengths 1,8,1,50,8
Header.endSeparator        nl
item.endSeparator             nl
item.fieldNames                  DATA1,DATA2,DATA3,DATA4
item.keyFieldValue             item
item.fieldFixedLengths       231,240,241,120
item.lastFieldsOptional       YES
Can anyone check whether any parameters are left, b'cos the file is not being read with this settings. and in the C.C its just showing file processing successfully but not able to see the actual file.

Hi,
I assume you have header, item and trailer structure in source file.
Source Data Type will be as follows.
RecordSet
--> Header
      --> KeyField(Value OH)
      --> H1
      --> H2
--> Item
      --> KeyField (Value OL)
      --> I1
      --> I2
-->Trailer
      --> KeyField (Value OT)
      --> T1
      --> T2
Where Item Strucutre can come multiple times.
Please use following settings.
Recordset name: RecordSet
RecordSet Structure: Header,1,Item,*,Trailer,1
Key Field Name: KeyField
Header.fieldNames: KeyField,H1,H2
Header.fieldFixedLengths: 2,3,4
Header.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Header.keyFieldValue: OH
Header.LastFieldsOptional: YES
Item.fieldNames: KeyField,I1,I2
Item.fieldFixedLengths: 2,5,6
Item.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Item.keyFieldValue: OL
Item.LastFieldsOptional: YES
Trailer.fieldNames: KeyField,T1,T2
Trailer.fieldFixedLengths: 2,8,9
Trailer.processFieldNames: fromConfiguration
Trailer.keyFieldValue: OT
Trailer.LastFieldsOptional: YES

File content conversion without field separator

Hi experts,
in my scenario I'm sending a txt file to an external receiver.
Each field of the file must be separated from the others with differents field separators according with the requirement of the receiver, for example:
field1;field2:field3, field4; ecc....
For this reason I've created in the source message many "FieldSeparator" fields. These fields will be populated by ABAP program.
I thought that it was possible to omit parameter fieldSeparator in content conversion, but testing the interface I receive an error because fieldSeparator is missing.
Is possible to omit fieldSeparator or to specify a fieldSeparator null?
The fields in the target file must be of variable lenght, so I cannot use FieldFixedLenght.
The only solution I found is to create in the target message structure a single string with each field concatenated, is the only possible solution?
Thanks
Fabio Boni
Edited by: Fabio Boni on Oct 21, 2010 5:47 PM

Sorry...posting error earlier..
The seperator can be concatenated at the end of each field in mapping.So seperator will be part of field value.
But with receiver FCC, you need to either mentione fieldfixedlenght or fieldseperator.Please check if space is going to to work for you as separator.

Send a file without File Content Conversion

Hi,
I need to send an IDOC flat file that I pick from File system to a FTP server through XI. I was just wondering if there was a way by which I could avoid doing File Content Conversion on both the send and receiver file adapters?
In my scenario, I am just passing this file through XI. I am not making any changes to it but to send it thru XI, I will have to convert from flat IDOC file ( file generated from File port in ECC) to XML and then from XML to Flat file.
Can anyone guide??

Hi William,
As a matter of fact, no IR object is needed. You can make up any interface name and namespace in the ID.
This sounds interesting..!!
Can I just note down the steps in this case and can you validate the same..
1. No IR objectd needed.
2. File adapters ~~ Both sender and reciver , make the protocol as FILE
3. Receievr Determination , Interface determination , Sender Agreement , Receiver Agreement ~~~ Give dummy Interface as well as Namespace values?

Problem with File Content Conversion

Hi All
I am facing a problem with file content conversion.
This is my sample file structure:
Header_Record (Occurance - 1)
Field1 in Header
Field2 in Header
Item(Occ-1 to n)
Field3 in Item
Field4 in Item
<<ItemType>> (Structure in Item) (Occ - 0 to n)
<<Field5>> in ItemType
<<Field6>> in ItemType
<<ItemTypeCategory>> (Structure in ItemType)(Occ - 0 to n)
<<<<Field7>>>> in ItemTypeCategory
<<<<Field8>>>> in ItemTypeCategory
Footer_Record (Occurance-1)
Field9
Field10
There is a key field 'Type' in all the above records with unique value in each record.
Now, I defined Field content conversion as follows:
Recordset Structure: Header_Record,1,Item, * , ItemType, * ,ItemTypeCategory, * ,Footer_Record,1
Recordset Sequence: Ascending
KeyField Name: Type
Following are parameters defiled:
Header_Record.Keyfieldvalue: 00
Header_Record.fieldseperator: ,
Header_Record.fieldnames: Field1,Field2
Header_Record.endseperator: 'nl'
Item.keyfieldvalue: 05
item.fieldseperator: ,
item.fieldfieldnames: field3,field4
item.endseperator: 'nl'
ItemType.keyfieldvalue: 10
itemType.fieldseperator: ,
itemType.fieldfieldnames: field5,field6
itemType.endseperator: 'nl'
ItemTypecategory.keyfieldvalue: 15
itemTypecategory.fieldseperator: ,
itemTypecategory.fieldfieldnames: field7,field8
itemTypecategory.endseperator: 'nl'
Footer.keyfieldvalue: 20
Footer.fieldseperator: ,
Footer.fieldfieldnames: field5,field6
Footer.endseperator: 'nl'
Now, i pass the following file:
00,111
05,222
10,333
15,444
20,555
What i expect out of my FCC is this (Sample output to show the hierarchy of field values):
00,111
05,222
<<10,333>>
<<<<15,444>>>>
20,555
But, I am getting this output (Hierarchy is missing. All the structures are in the same order without hierarchy):
00,111
05,222
10,333
15,444
20,555
Field values are being identified according to field content conversion, but, the hierarchy of the fields is missing.
Can you please tell me how should i change my FCC config?
Sorry for this long question.
Many Thanks
Chandra

You will always get a flat structure from FCC. If you want hierarchichal strucuture, you have to create a target and map. You will get only like -
Root
--Recordset
Group1
Fields
Grop2
Fields
Group3

File is not creating on the Receiver for File Content Conversion

Hi,
i have created a scenario with this blog
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/02/27/content-conversion-the-key-field-problem
for sender side i am using File Content Conversion to read .txt file and on receiver side i need xml file i have done that.
when i placed the file in the sender folder it gets picked up and i checked in Communication Channel monitporing in Runtime WorkBench it is processed Successfully. but no XML File is created on the Receiver side. i am unable to see the messages on SXMB_MONI also.
Please suggest some ideas to solve this.
Thanks,
Giridhar.C

Hi Giridhar.
unable to see the messages on SXMB_MONI also
If the file got picked and in Communication Channel monitoring RWB you can see that it is processed without any errors ,, then i feel it should come in come.Please check the Audit log in RWB, there you can see the error message if any.
Please check the connection parameters in FTP and make sure that the same sender folder is
not being used by any other scenario.If you have done any recent changes then do a cache refresh .
Please post if you see any error in content conversion.

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,
Harikumar. S

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).

File Content Conversion in Sender File

how to convert a fixed length flat file without end seperator sent to XI to a xml form?
Pleasegive me the idea of Sender Adapter configuration details (esp endSeperator)

Hi,
For file content convertion if there are fixed lenth then no need to give the feildseperator,just give the fixed lenths for all the feild in FCC.
check below links for FCC

<field5>-}*</field5>
</deal>
</dealings>
I put content conversion parameters:
deal.fieldSeparator = $
deal.fieldNames = field1,field2,field3,field4,field5
And i get a file like:
<ns:mt_swift_file>
<dealings>
<deal>
<field1>{field1</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>field2</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>field3</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>field4</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>-}*</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1/>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>{field5</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>field6</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>field7</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>field8</field1>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>-}*</field1>
</deal>
</dealings>
</ns:mt_swift_file>
What i do wrong?
As i understand, XI put string to a separate tag after symbol 'nl', but how can i get structure without unnecessary tags?

Dear All,
I believe that the file adapter has finished writing the file. Not sure, How to check whether the adapter is still working or not since from the SXMB_MONI, I see the mssage processing has been completed.
Further information
The data type structure :
1. DT_EDIFILE_LOG
1.1 Record --> occurence 1
1.1.1 EDIFILE --> occurence 1..unbounded
1.1.1.1 credate --> occurence 1
1.1.1.2 port --> occurence 1
1.1.1.3 idocnumber --> occurence 1
In content conversion parameters :
Recordset Name : Record
Recordset Structure : EDIFILE,*
Thank you very much for your suggestion.
Best Regards,

Doubt regarding Sender adapter file content conversion to RFC

Hi Experts,
Below is the my Source and Target XML structure ( i have creaated source structure same as target RFC structure), This scenario is working fine when i give XML file as input. File -> XI -> RFC , xml file is able to update the information in R3.
How should i configure sender file adapter for file content conversion for above structure(in this case input is fixed lenth text), and i could able to change source structure according to our req, without changing target RFC strucuture.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber xmlns:ns0="urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32">
 <COMMIT_I>X</COMMIT_I>
 <IDENTIFICATION>
 <STUDENT>6500001191</STUDENT>
 <ID_TYPE>FS0030</ID_TYPE>
 <ID_NUMBER>testxml</ID_NUMBER>
 <VALID_FROM>20070421</VALID_FROM>
 <VALID_TO>20091231</VALID_TO>
 </IDENTIFICATION>
</ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber>
I have configured sender file adapter with FCC like :
Document name as: MT_HSA_IDNumber
Document name space as: urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32
Record structure as: COMMIT_I,1,IDENTIFICATION,1
COMMIT_I.fieldNames : COMMIT_I
COMMIT_I.fieldFixedlengths: 1
IDENTIFICATION.fieldNames: STUDENT,ID_TYPE,ID_NUMBER,VALID_FROM,VALID_TO
IDENTIFICATION.fieldFixedlengths: 12,6,60,8,8
i am getting error like this: even when i change source structure like below metioned:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber xmlns:ns0="urn:passhe.com/UpdateIdNumberISA32">
 <COMMIT>
 <COMMIT_I>X</COMMIT_I>
 </COMMIT>
 <IDENTIFICATION>
 <STUDENT>6500001191</STUDENT>
 <ID_TYPE>FS0030</ID_TYPE>
 <ID_NUMBER>idnumber1</ID_NUMBER>
 <VALID_FROM>20070421</VALID_FROM>
 <VALID_TO>20091231</VALID_TO>
 </IDENTIFICATION>
</ns0:MT_HSA_IDNumber>
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'COMMIT_I.fieldFixedLengths' or 'COMMIT_I.fieldSeparator' is missing Consistency check: no. of arguments in 'COMMIT_I.fieldFixedLength' does not match 'COMMIT_I.fieldNames' (0 <> 1)
Please help me out
thanks
dhanush

Hi Dhanush,
Try giving the Sender FCC this way for the source structure you have mentioned above.
Record structure as: COMMIT,1,IDENTIFICATION,1
COMMIT.fieldNames : COMMIT_I
COMMIT.fieldFixedlengths: 1
Hope this helps.
Thanks and Regards,
Induja

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.
