              201, ABCDE,25
for the above case we use row.fieldNames, row.fieldSeperator, row.endSeperator.
but if the case is like below.
case 2 : ID,"NAME1,NAME2",AGE
              202,"ABC,DEF",26

thanks in advance.

Hi,
If you want to use NAME1 & NAME2 as single field then use xml.enclosureSign=" and xml.enclosureSignEsc=" " in your FCC.
u can also refer http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/EN/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm

File content convertion for multi mapping occurance 1:N

Hi ALL,
In my scenario i have used multimapping means 1:N,
In my scenario the sender is file adapter and receiver is JMS adapter.
My requirement is that i have to pick the file from respective directory path...
through file content convertion
For example below is the structure when the sender file adpater pickes the flat file..through File content convertion....
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ns:mt_BookingConfirmation xmlns:ns1="urn:agrp:ml">
 <Recordset>
 <BOOKING_REQCON_ROU>
 <RECORD_TYPE>ROU</RECORD_TYPE>
 <SENDER_ID>AS.MAN</SENDER_ID>
 <RECEIVER_ID>abcd.99018293</RECEIVER_ID>
 </BOOKING_REQCON_ROU>
 </Recordset>
</ns:mt_BookingConfirmation>
But the structure of the source which i have in the mpping is as below,you can see the diffrence and this diffrence we will get automatically when we change the occurances of the target structure.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:Messages xmlns:ns0="http://sap.com/xi/XI/SplitAndMerge">
 <ns0:Message1>
 <ns1:mt_BookingConfirmation xmlns:ns1="urn:agrp:ml">

 <SENDER_ID>AS.MAN</SENDER_ID>
 <RECEIVER_ID>abcd.99018293</RECEIVER_ID>
 </BOOKING_REQCON_ROU>
 </Recordset>
 </ns1:mt_BookingConfirmation>
 </ns0:Message1>
</ns0:Messages>
because of this diffrence in the structure... the picked file could not able to pass ttrough from the message mapping.Because of this error is throwned in the SXMB_MONI
Please if some one know how to do the file content convertion for this type of diffrent structure.
Please let me know ASAP.
Thanks in advance...

File Content Convertion

HI Experts,
My scenario was Idoc to File.
*Issue: I had mapped Source idoc with A,B,C,D fields.
I want only A,B,C at final structure.*
I cannot ignore D field in message mapping as i am using that field for file name Substitution in receiver communivcation channel target file name.
In my receiver CC i have given,
XX01.fieldNames: A,B,C
But still i am getting A,B,C,D in target structure.
thanks in advance

Hi,
You have to set the file name in header message field instead of entering in payload message field. Doing that
you avoid creating D node in message mapping.
Then, it is the same using variable sustituion in File Receiver adapter.
To recovery this value, follow this link. (Advanced Tab Page
Variable Substitution (Target Directory/File Name Scheme))

File Content convertion error

I am getting error (java.lang.exception)in RWB in component monitoring of sender side file NFS adapter
number of arguments in Row.fileldFixedLength does not match with no of fields in Row.fieldNames.
My file is , seperated with 5 fileds
Row.filedNames ename,eno,performrate,ratedesc,effecivedate
Row.fieldSeperator ,
i used 'nl' as newline character
Can anybody please give the reason for the error

Hi
1)You should not use Both fieldFixedLengths and fieldSeparator together in FCC.
2)Since it is case-sensitive beware of spelling mistake
so
Row.fieldNames=ename,eno,performrate,ratedesc,effecivedate
Row.fieldSeperator=,
Row.endSeperator='nl'

Problems in File Content Conversion

Hello,
 I am trying to convert a text file to an XML using File Content Conversion in XI 3.0.
 The incoming text file gets picked up but no message is sent and hence no message is received in the monitor.I get the following log-
Success Channel FILE_SENDER_XML_1: Entire file content converted to XML format
Warning Channel FILE_SENDER_XML_1: Empty document found. Proceed without sending message
Success File "C:\xi_public\i033066\dme_in.txt" deleted after processing
Can somebody help me on this
Thanks
Sandeep

Hello,
 I am not sure of why the empty Payload is created.
I have the following TXT file -
LINE 1 01 22 Sandeep ASKDJKLASD HDFC Bank 12342 asdasd 123569
LINE 2 02 22 Sagar 23123 ICICI 4234 ASDASD 254636 12304 ASDAsdqwe
LIME 3 03 22 1 12304
Ignore 'Lines' above.They are not part of the file.
I have given the following parameters -
Document Name - SampleMessageType
Document Namespace - http://sandeep/xi/bpm_example
Recordset Name - Header,Item,Trailer
Recordset Namespace - http://sandeep/xi/bpm_example
Record Structure - Header,,Item,,Trailer,*
Recordset Sequence - Ascending
Key Field Name - Record Type
Key Field Type - String(Case Sensitive)
Header.fieldFixedLengths 3,4,15,20,15,15,20,10
Header.fieldNames RecordType,RecordLength,CompanyName,CompanyAddress,BankName,BankCode,BankAddress,AccountNumber
Header.processFieldNames fromConfiguration
Header.keyFieldValue 01
Header.lastFieldsOptional YES
Item.fieldFixedLengths 3,4,15,20,15,15,15,10,6,10
Item.fieldNames RecordType,RecordLength,BeneficiaryName,BeneficiaryAddress,BankName,BankCode,BankAddress,AccountNumber,Amount,NoteToPayee
Item.processFieldNames fromConfiguration
Item.keyFieldValue 02
Item.lastFieldsOptional YES
Trailer.fieldFixedLengths 3,4,6,6
Trailer.fieldNames RecordType,RecordLength,TotalRecords,TotalAmount
Trailer.processFieldNames fromConfiguration
Trailer.keyFieldValue 03
Trailer.lastFieldsOptional YES
If I don't give these parameters then channel will give me errors.I don't know what other parameter to give to create a file.
I had tried the same thing with the following and it worked
Document Name - SampleMessageType
Document Namespace - http://sandeep/xi/bpm_example
Record Structure - Substr,*
Recordset Sequence - Ascending
Key Field Name - Record Type
Key Field Type - String(Case Sensitive)
Substr.fieldFixedLengths 3,4,15,20,15,15,20,10,3,4,15,20,15,15,15,10,6,10,3,4,6,6
Substr.fieldNames RecordType,RecordLength,CompanyName,CompanyAddress,BankName,BankCode,BankAddress,AccountNumber,RecordType,RecordLength,BeneficiaryName,BeneficiaryAddress,BankName,BankCode,BankAddress,AccountNumber,Amount,NoteToPayee,RecordType,RecordLength,TotalRecords,TotalAmount
Substr.processFieldNames fromConfiguration
Substr.keyFieldValue 01
Substr.lastFieldsOptional YES
But the problem here is my mapping has the Header,Item and Trailer as the structure names but he XML created here will be like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:SampleMessageType xmlns:ns="http://sandeep/xi/bpm_example">
- <Recordset>
- <Substr>
<RecordType>21</RecordType>
<RecordLength>22</RecordLength>
<CompanyName>Sandeep</CompanyName>
<CompanyAddress>ASKDJKLASD</CompanyAddress>
<BankName>HDFC Bank</BankName>
<BankCode>12342</BankCode>
<BankAddress>asdasd</BankAddress>
<AccountNumber>123569</AccountNumber>
</Substr>
- <Substr>
<RecordType>02</RecordType>
<RecordLength>22</RecordLength>
<CompanyName>Sagar</CompanyName>
<CompanyAddress>23123</CompanyAddress>
<BankName>ICICI</BankName>
<BankCode>4234</BankCode>
<BankAddress>ASDASD 25463</BankAddress>
<AccountNumber>6 12304</AccountNumber>
<RecordType>AS</RecordType>
<RecordLength>DAsd</RecordLength>
</Substr>
- <Substr>
<RecordType>03</RecordType>
<RecordLength>22 1</RecordLength>
</Substr>
</Recordset>
</ns:SampleMessageType>
In this case my mapping fails
Thanks,

Problem with File content conversion and parameters

Hi experts,
What is the use of file content conversion that is available in file adapter? For what cases we can use it?
What do the different content conversion parameters mean?
Kindly help
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
We use the file content convertion to conver the flat file that is text file into XML,
File adapter cant understand the format the file is,so we have to declare the content convertion parameters.
Check some links which will tell how the convertion is done.

Hi Question about Sender File Content Conversion

Hi All,
I have a flat file i need convert that flat file to the below XML format using File content Conversion, can anybody help me on this with example File content Convertion parameters
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_FileSend xmlns:ns0="http://test">
 <Recordset>
 <Contact>
 <Name>ABC</Name>
 <Number>123</Number>

 </Recordset>
</ns0:MT_FileSend>

Hi Sudheer reddy,
 Good question.
File content conversion parameters are:
1) Doccument Name: Doccument name is nothing but message type name for file side: MT_FileSend
2) Doccument Namespace: mention the name space for the message type.
3) Doccument Offset: for which row and which coloumn doccument has to be write.
4) recordset name: mention the record set name: Recordset
5) Recordset Namespace: if the namespace is different for message type name space mention name space or otherwise it is blank.
6) Recordset Structure: Mention the structure name
7) Recordset Sequence: mention the sequence of the recordset Ascending or Decending
8) Recordset permessage: Would define no of record sets per message.
9) Key-field name: to query to the doccument
10) Key field type: string(Case-senstive)
fieldValues
fieldSeparator
endSeparator
Note: pls check in SDN about file content conversions it so many blogs are available, u can easily understand.

Sateesh

File Content Conversion : Recordset Structure with * not reading file

Hallo all,
we have the following problem.
we implemented a scenario as sown in this blog
/people/venkat.donela/blog/2005/06/08/how-to-send-a-flat-file-with-various-field-lengths-and-variable-substructures-to-xi-30
but there is a problem.
If the file structure is declared as :
Header,1,Items,*
then the adapter does not even read the file from the directory (so I assume that for some reason the file structure is not as expected).
If on the other had the structured is declared as :
Header,1,Items,3
everything works.
Obviously though, this is not satisfying since we need variable cardinalities.
Here is an example :
I have a specific file in a standard directory, called xi_input.
The file is edited straight into that directory, so there can't be filename errors etc.
If the file is left empty :
Nothing happens . No message of any kind in sxmb_moni/monitoring xml messages .
If the file contains the following (data is random) , where 'H' is the key for the header and 'I' is the key for the items :
H 20060403 16 3 316001 kapou lalla morellala 20060403 F3 23
I 277101010 2
I 277101011 3
I 277101012 4
There are to cases :
if the file structure is declared as :
Header,1,Items,*
Then nothing happens .
If on the other had the structured is declared as :
Header,1,Items,3
everything works .
Any suggestions and help is appreciated
Thank you .

Actually yes, there is an error message :
Error     5/30/08 3:12:45 PM     fda9d3c5-4775-4df8-17b8-dfd14191171d
Retry interval started. Length: 5.0 seconds
Error     5/30/08 3:12:45 PM     fda9d3c5-4775-4df8-17b8-dfd14191171d
Could not archive file 'E:\tmp\NetBeauty\In\xi_input.dat' after processing
5/30/08 3:12:45 PM           Processing started
And the details are :
2008-05-30 16:07:00     Success     Channel CC_File_adapter: Entire file content converted to XML format
2008-05-30 16:07:00     Warning     Channel CC_File_adapter: Empty document found. Proceed without sending message
2008-05-30 16:07:00     Error     Attempt to archive file "E:\tmp\NetBeauty\In\xi_input.dat" after processing failed. Retry
Only that they don't look very helpful. From this I only understand that the data in my input.dat file is not in the format expexced.
I Have configured key fields as :
keyfield name : keyfield
Header.fieldNames : keyfield,CreationDate,CentralCustomerCode,CustomerCode,ReferenceDocumentNumber,DeliveryPlace,Message,ReturnMessage,DeliveryDate,SalesmanCode,Rest
Items.fieldNames : keyfield,Material,Quantity
Header.keyFieldValue     "H"
Items.keyFieldValue     "I"
