File content conversion simple scenario

Hi friends,
I am trying FCC for first time. I had created one simple file scenario without using FCC to which I had to provide input in XML format.
like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:mt_sender xmlns:ns0="http:/soni.com">
 <ponum>1</ponum>
 <poqty>2</poqty>
 <poamt>3</poamt>
</ns0:mt_sender>
Now I want to use FCC for this,in which i have to provide comma seperate data, e.g 11,12,114.4
Please let me know how to do this. I had gone through some blogs on sdn but I didnt got solution for this.
Thanks.,
Brij........

HI,
If you want the output file in comma separated pattern for the incoming xml file,then you can go for the below mentioned fcc parameters in your receiver channel.
Structure*                 Recordset,Record
Record.fieldSeparator             ,
Record.endSeparator             'nl'
Recordset.fieldSeparator        'nl'

Problem in file content conversion, file 2 xml scenario

Hi,
Could some one help me in finding out the error in my file to xml scenario, please do consider the following things what I did for this scenario.
1.My sender file structure is flat file with , seperated 4 fields. On receiver end expecting xml file.
2.Did file content conversion at sender file adapter and given parameters as follows.
     Document name             : MT_FileInput
     DocumentnameSpace     : http://file/praveenworkshop
     Recordset Name             : DT_Record
     Recordset Structure        : DT_Row,*
     KeyfieldType                   : String( default)
    DT_Row.fieldnames          : FirstName,LastName,City,PostCode
    DT_Row.fieldSeparator      : ,
    DT_Row.processConfiguration: FromConfiguration
    Dt_Row.endSeparator       : 'nl'
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 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

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,

Question about File Content Conversion and parent-child relationships...

Hello!
 I have read probably every blog, article and SAP Help document on the topic, but I am stuck on this one. I am trying to convert a General Ledger flat file to an IDoc using the classic file --> IDoc scenario. The setup is done and working, but the IDocs are formatted incorrectly and I believe at least part of the reason is how I am converting the file content.
The root of my problem is that the flat file has a parent-child relationship between the document header and the document item and I want to maintain that since the IDoc type (FIDCCP01) has the same structure in the BKPF and BSEG segments.
Here is the flat (non-XML) file layout that is coming into the file adapter:
FileHeader
DocumentHeader
DocumentItem
DocumentHeader
DocumentItem
and so on (until the number of documents is complete
I would really like the content to be converted so that the line items stay under their parent document headers like this:
<FileHeader></FileHeader>
<DocumentHeader>
 <ItemHeader>
 </ItemHeader>
</DocumentHeader>
<DocumentHeader>
 <ItemHeader>
</ItemHeader>
</DocumentHeader>
But I keep getting this, where it lists the document headers first (one after another), and then all of the line items after the document headers like this:
<FileHeader></FileHeader>
<DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
<DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
<DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
<ItemHeader></ItemHeader>
Is is possible to maintain that parent-child relationship from the flat file and pass it over to the XML?
Thanks,
John

File content conversion only 100 characters read from source..

Hi,
In my case I have a sender channel with file content conversion set as follows;
Recordset structure : Record, 1
sequence: ascending
Key field type : String (case sensitive)
record.fieldseparator : 'nl'
record.fieldnames : Data
ignorerecordsetname: true
Idea is in ECC, when a custom program is run, it reads the shipment data and builds an xml file with data in various nodes like;
<shipmentId>6767667</shipmentId>
<DelvText>hjysks sag fhdososlhfiof </DelvText>
Now all this data is converted to a single string entry under tag called <Data> and passed on to the third party system by PI using above conversion.
And the resulting file will have all the data like this;
- <Record>
<Data><?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?></Data>
</Record>
- <Record>
<Data><ShipmentId>6767667</ShiomentId>.........</Data>
It so happens that the data that is populated in the <DelvText> by the program is lost during conversion. I get only first 100 characters in the resulting above mentioned XML after the file content conversion happens. rest of the string is lost. I can see all other data perfect except for this long text.
This is the data I enter in the delivery's header text under shipment instruction field. I debugged the program and see that the entire text is indeed filled but gets lost after the file conversion happens !!
What can be the reason ?
thnks

Stefan, I appreciate your concern, thanks. But this is an already working interface and I cannot change it and can only assist with minor data mapping changes and troubleshooting such issues.
Scenario is simple, ECC has to send shipment data to third party via PI.
The shipment data has to be sent as an XML file with a single <Data> tag as I showed to you earlier.
It is so weird that when I type my delivery text less than 100 characters I can see that in full text in my XML file but only when the text is more than 100 characters, the XML has only 100 characters and it is passed to the third party like that and so third party is consdering this as incomplete info.
Would help if you can think and let me kjow what may create this kind of an issue or if you can point me where to look for issues.
thnks

item.fieldNames key,low
item.keyFieldValue 1
item.keyFieldInStructure ignore
but while am chking in sxmb_moni...iam getting my input message as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:Mt_Mainplant_Ra xmlns:ns="http://autoscribe.com/xi/erp/n47">
- <Mainplant_Ra>
- <item>
<key>3</key>
<low>000</low> </item>
</Mainplant_Ra>
</ns:Mt_Mainplant_Ra>

File content conversion record set per message

Dear All,
Problem:- File is of huge size because of which file content conversion is taking longer time and is failing.
File format:-
Header
Detail
Detail
Header
Detail
Detail
Detail
Detail
Header
Detail
Detail
Trailer
Trailer has total count of all detail record,header record and there are few checks as well as wrt other fields.
We need to do all the above validation on the file and if it successful it shud process it otherwise alert shud be raised.
As a step:-
I have used record set per message for splitting up the file because of huge size this functionality is working fine but because of spitting of file i am not able to do trailer validation as XI is creating multiple records with different message ID's
Is any other approch which will help to achieve both Spliting as well as validation
chirag

Chirag,
simplest scenario I can think of is splitting the 2 reqs.
1. create 2 folders, one for "in process" files and other for "validated" files.
2. create 2 scenarios:
2.1. your current sender system to in process folder (whatever to File).
=> In this you just do the validation, without FCC. You could create a simple module for that or even do it at mapping runtime, as you said (mapping may be easier to handle errors), and throw a runtime exception (which will eventually trigger an alert).
=> At the end, only files that go successfully throug the validation will be located in the "In Process" folder.
2.2. do a simple file to file scenario (from "In Process" to "Validated" folder), this time executing FCC & splitting messages if necessary.
Of course, this will only work if the module/mapping is able to process the large file anyway (hopefully yes, since it will still be a flat file and not XML yet).
BR,
Henrique.

Receiver File content conversion - NO Output

Hi, yesterday i posted already to this topic but i chose to make a new thread.
I have an IDoc2File Scenario where i put the generated File to the filesystem of the XI-Server.
I try to do a file content conversion at the receiver side. I already read several blogs and also the official documentation (which is kind of bad - because the arne't posted all supported parameters which could be used on the recordset)
But anyway, the is a txt file written but without any details inside, no data is deliverd.
I do a message mapping and try to put only some data to the end-file.
here is my MT which i try to convert:
MT_Tafel
++TafelRecordset
+++TafelDetailsStructure
++++TAFIST
++++TAFSOLL
My parameters at the receiver communication channel are:
Recordset: TafelDetailsStructure
TafelDetailsStructure.endSeparator = 'nl'
TafelDetailsStructure.addHeader = 0
TafelDetailsStructure.fieldSeparator = ,
I have the right message protocol, i am trying to write a simple text file, i have no file-coding like ASCII, file is directly written into an empty one - and that's all.
The file is written but without data inside.
Do i have to announce the filednames i want to write? Like TafelDetailsStructure.fieldNames??
Do i have to add Parameters concerning the tags on the higher level, like TafelRecordset?
Is there a general overview about all parameters you can use on this file content conversion?
Can anybody help me with my scenario - i have no clue what i have done wrong. Communcation channel says everthing is fine, message succesfully transfered.
best regards, Jens

hi,
you need to mention the names of the field by
TafelDetailsStructure.fieldNames where u need to specify the filed names.
