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.

Mail Adapter and File content conversion.

I have a scenario to send data from SAP to 4 different boards. I have used a Multi mapping for this scenario. I am using Proxy for SAP to xi and SOAP, File and Mail adapter for the external connections.
Questions:
1) I need to send a mail in CSV or Excell format in one scenario. I have used AF_StrictXml2Plain Module but its not working? any thoughts?
2) In the file adapter I have to add the YYYYMMDD (current Date) to the file name? when I use timestamp i get the time too, any way of getting only date? I cant use the Variable substitution as i dont have date in my payload.
3) Receiver File content conversion:
My Message Type Looks like this
MT_XX_XX
     Row
        title
        xxx
I have used these parameters:
Recordset Structure: Row
Row.addHeaderLine : 0
Row.fieldSeparator : ,
Row.endSeparator: 'nl'
am I doing something worng, the file content conversion doesnt work.
Please let me know
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Make sure u are using the bean before the mail adapter bean.
Before using the file content conversion make sure that there are no substructures in it , in order to use addheader line as 0. else use addheaderline 3 and give the headerline as comma seperated values
for e.g if this is the type then addheader line= 0
Type 1 :
Record_Mt
     Row
         field1
         field2
else if this the type then addheaderline = 3
*Type 2: *
Record_Mt
     Row1
         field1
         field2
     Row2
         field1
         field2
add module like this
localejbs/sap.com/AF_Modules/StrictXml2PlainBean
with the module key e.g. key
for type 1 struct (as above )add parameter- key as singleRecordType and value as Row with comma seperated value. (remember header line is 0)
for type 2 structure (as above )add parameter- key as recordTypes and value as Row1, Row2 with comma seperated value. (remember header line is 3)

How to resolve this issue? I appreciate your help.
Thank you,
Balaji

Balaji,
I would suggest to remove FileItem and LineItem in your receiver datatype. They are increasing the hierarchy of your content conversion. If you do that then you will have
<ns1:MT_Info_File xmlns:ns1="urn:http://freemanco.com/xi/info_list">
<TYPE>
<FileName>DD11022007</FileName>
</TYPE>
<DATA><LineEntry>234567891234567890123456789012345678901234567890</LineEntry>
<LineEntry>95473523647586969587265245437586979798376524253586</LineEntry>
<DATA>
</ns1:MT_Info_File>
Then in content converstion give this parameters:
Record structure : TYPE,FileName,DATA,LineEntry
TYPE.fieldfixedlengths : 0
FileName.fieldfixedlenghts:0
DATA.fieldfixedlenghts:0
LineEntry.fieldfixedlengths:301
LineEntry.endSeparator:'nl'
Then it should work. Also you can use FileName in your variable substituition. Also please see this weblog on how to use FileName in variable substitution:
/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12
If you dont want to remove FileItem and LineItem then add these also in your content conversion. Then the parameters would be:
Recordset: TYPE,FileItem,FileName,DATA,LineItem,LineEntry
TYPE.fieldfixedlengths : 0
FileItem.fieldfixedlengths:0
FileName.fieldfixedlenghts:0
DATA.fieldfixedlenghts:0
LineItem.fieldfixedlengths : 0
LineEntry.fieldfixedlengths:301
LineEntry.endSeparator:'nl'

Problem with Sender Adapter File Content Conversion

Hi all!
I have a question about file content conversion in sender file adapter.
I have file like:
{field1
field2
field3
field4
$
{field5
field6
field7
field8
And i need to get file like:
<dealings>
<deal>
<field1>{field1</field1>
<field2>field2</field2>
<field3>field3</field3>
<field4>field4</field4>
<field5>-}*</field5>
</deal>
<deal>
<field1>{field5</field1>
<field2>field6</field2>
<field3>field7</field3>
<field4>field8</field4>
<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>

File Content Conversion -All the input content was not shown in output file

Hi Experts,
In my scenario, I need to send data from .XML file to .txt file, using File Content Conversion at Receiver communication channel. This is File to File scenario.
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>
Processing Parameters
Target Directory = C:/Test
File Name Scheme = xi_output.txt
File Construction Mode = Add Time Stamp
File Type = Binary
Content Conversion Parameters
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

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.

Need Help in Sender File Content Conversion

Hi All,
I request your expert advice on Sender File content Conversion. I need to process the below pasted file. I was able to achieve this by keeping a offset of 6 in Sender PI File Adapter (PI 7.1) to ignore first 6 lines and used a Unix script to remove last line"END OF REPORT".
Now my new requirement is I need to capture the date "DECEMBER 2009" from line 3. How can I do this. I have set offset as 6 so Adapter will start processing from line 7. If I don't set offset Interface fails. Please suggest. Thank you.

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
