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.

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.
Krishna

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)

Right Justification in File Content Conversion

I have a requirement where the data should be right justified in File content conversion of a Receiver Adapter .
For example it should be coming as " 5864" instead of "5864 ". Please help in completing this requirement.

Hi Srinath
AFAIK, there is no setting in FCC to achieve this. You can do this instead in the Message Mapping step by doing a right justify on that target fields.
You can search for plenty of solutions on the internet to perform a right justify and include it in a UDF.
Below is an example of a UDF of execution type single values with single input. It right justifies the String based on a total length of 15. You can change the field length according to your requirement.
return String.format("%15s", input);

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).

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?

Help required File Content Conversion.

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?

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

This was the configuration. But this is not working I monitored the Communication Channel and file is not reading and not getting deleting.
What actually went wrong in above configuration. Why it is not working.

There is no root node, so in your FCC you need to mention your RecordsetName and you can ignoreRecordSetName in result structure. Check the following blog simulates your requirement.

Problem in file content conversion from XML to CSV

Hi Experts,
I am finding problem in file content conversion. I need to convert the following XML file into CSV file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns0:MT_CROSS_REF xmlns:ns0="urn:dabur:idoc2file:pos">
 <Update_type>2</Update_type>
 <PLU>00000000</PLU>
 <Cross_ref_PLU>7777777</Cross_ref_PLU>
 <Capture_PLU />
 <Package_size />
 <Package_desc />
</ns0:MT_CROSS_REF>
The output file data has to be like:
2,00000000,7777777,,,,
The problem I am facing is while specifying the content conversion parameters in communication channel i dont know what recordset structure i should mention as all the records are directly under root. If I mention recordset structure as "ns0:MT_CROSS_REF" and parameters as
ns0:MT_CROSS_REF.fieldSeparator ,
ns0:MT_CROSS_REF.endSeparator 'nl'
i get error in communication channel monitoring and no file is posted.
Please help me as to what correct parameter i should mention in my case.
Thanks,
Regards,
Yash

Hi Chirag,
I cannot change the xml file as it comes after mapping idoc to a message type. How can I add ROOT in the xml? My message type is like MT_CROSS_REF and it has those 6 fields as in the XML (Update_type, PLU etc.). I do the mapping of these fields from a IDOC and get the XML.
I hope you got my point.
Thanks,
Yash

Complex file content conversion in case of CSV file

Hi Friends,
What you see below is generated from Excel i.e excel file saved as CSV file. This file i need to map in XI.
Problem is i have to take only the data and not the header part.
for e.g in this particular line
Employee ID          :,,E00315
I need only E0315 and not the header value. Similarly i have to find some solution to map all the required data.
Please suggest me how to use file content conversion in such scenarios.
Solution is required on top priority. Points will be immdly rewarded.
Thanks & Regards

1,,,,,,,,,,,Ref. No: T-PRO-01-011,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
1,,,,,,,,,,,Page No.: 01,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
1,Employee ID          :,E00315
But still i am getting the error
Conversion of file content to XML failed at position 0: java.lang.Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 4 according to structure 'tims_header':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration / structure 'tims_header.': More elements in file csv structure than field names specified!
Please help.

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
Fields

Problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter

Hi All
I have a problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter.
This is my recordset structure: Header_Record,1,Claim_Record,*,Check_Rec,1
These are the content conversion parameters:
Header_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Header_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Claim_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Claim_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Check_Rec.fieldSeparator = ,
Check_Rec.endSeparator = 'nl'
In SXMB_MONI, i can see that the data is correctly extracted from proxy, and correctly mapped to receiver message, and i see a checkered flag (success).
But, Adapter status is RED with the following error message:
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter '1.fieldFixedLengths' or '1.fieldSeparator' is missing
In communication channel monitoring, i get the following error message:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Channel has not been correctly initialized and cannot process messages
What is going wrong here? Can anyone please tell me?
Thanks

Error in Receiver File adapter using File content Conversion

Hi,
I am getting the following error in the receiver file adapter.
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'statement.fieldFixedLengths' or 'statement.fieldSeparator' is missing
I am using the below parameters for FCC:
Recordset Structure - statement
statement.endSeparator - 'nl'
statement.fieldSeparator - '0X09'
statement.fieldNames -xblnr,wrbtr,newbs,kostl,newko,prctr,xref1,rke_wwfud,rke_wwst3,blart,bukrs,bldate,budat,gjahr,monat,ctype,waers,bktxt,posnr,wbs_element,mwxkz,businessplace,businessplace,c_waers,c_wrbtr,g_ctype,g_waers,g_wrbtr,h_ctype,h_waers,h_wrbtr,trade_id,lob,sgtxt,zuonr,reason_rev,ldgrp,tcode,lifnr
ignoreRecordsetName - true
Please let me know where i am going wrong.
Thanks,
Aparna

Hi Aparna,
I feel the problem in your content conversion parameters is with
statement.fieldNames and ignoreRecordsetName
When you are confirguring receiver file adapter for file content conversion the above one is not required. Please refer below link for details on configuring content conversion in file adapter
