File to mail adapter

hey guys
i m doing a file to Mail scenario in which i have to send mail in report format and assign the receivers dynamically,i m making use of /people/community.user/blog/2006/09/07/email-reporting to send mail in report format and /people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/07/mail-adapter-xi--how-to-implement-dynamic-mail-address to assign receiver dynamically but m kinda lost in hoe should i combine these two scenarios,what will be the structure of my source and target message be?
can anyone help me in deciding how will my source and target datatypes look like?
thanx and really appreciate ur help
ahmad

Your structure is dependent upon the messages that you want to import and export. What file formats are you trying to use?
If you are trying to follow Michal Krawczyk's Mail Adapter weblog then take a look at the XML message in his blog, it has fields <subject><to><from><content>. It appears that he imported an Email structure from an XSD, but there is no reason you can't create that structure yourself in the IR.
As for the weblog by Prakash Arunachalam, he provides an XML structure in his weblog at the bottom I believe.

E-Mail reporting in file to mail adapter scenario

Experts,
 I am working on a file to mail adapter in which, have to just send a mail to the recipient by putting a subject line and mail body.
am following the following example
/people/community.user/blog/2006/09/07/email-reporting
but my requirement is not to send the mail attachment. I just need to send a mail body stating the error location.
here at teh receiver side, have downloaded a mail.xsd. in this "subject line","from field" , "to" field is there but there is no "mail body" field .
Can any one please help me out. I just require to send a mail body to the recipient.
Thanks
Veeru

Expert,
 I have used but still am getting teh attachment not as a mail body.
Isit possible to send the mail body via XSLT mapping , for eg
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:ns0="http://perks.com/MailTest">
<xsl:output method="xml" version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" indent="yes"/>
 <xsl:template match="/">
 <ns1:Mail xmlns:ns1="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Mail/30">
 <Subject>Error files from XI</Subject>
 <From>from mail ID</From>
 <To>to mail id</To>
 <Content_Type>text/html</Content_Type>
 <Content>
 <xsl:text xsl:space="preserve">The error files for which service entry has not been created:</xsl:text>
 <xsl:value-of select="$break"/>
 <xsl:value-of select="$break"/>
 <xsl:value-of select="$tableB"/>
 <xsl:value-of select="$thB"/>
 <xsl:value-of select="$tdB"/>
 <xsl:text xsl:
 </Content>
 </ns1:Mail>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Any suggestions?
Thanks

File to Mail Adapter issue

I am trying FILE-TO-MAIL ADAPTER senorio
I have file contains following data(more than one row data in file)
emailaddress,subject, content
I used receiver Data type
https://websmp205.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/012006153200000361852004E/ximail30_xsd.txt
If text file is only one record it is sending mails as mail defininition is 1..1 in ximail30_xsd
I changed the mail definition in ximail30_xsd to 0...unbounnd and recreate the external definition andcreated interface based on external definition.
I am getting validation error.
please advice me.

Hi,
>I changed the mail definition in ximail30_xsd to 0...unbounnd and recreate the external definition andcreated interface based on external definition.
Maybe you can consider using MultiMapping to send the multiple Mails out of XI.

Is this what you want?

File to mail adapter scenario.

Hi All,
i have a file to mail adapter scenario.
here i get the data from tthe different vendors and what ever comes in should be validated and if needed sent as an attachment or detached from the message and then from receiver mail adpter to application server..if possible content conversion has to be done.
my questions are...
1.whare should we validate the data..is it in the XI server or receiver mail adapter..
if so..how to do that validation
2.how can we send as attachments ..
3.how can we detach them..i.e if attachments are not required 4.if content conversion conversion has to be done where is that done..
4.after coming out of the receiver adapter....how can we send it to the appliocation server.
Thanks in advance..
cheers,

Raghavesh,
Not sure if i follow the entire question.
>here i get the data from tthe different vendors and what ever comes in should be validated
I guess you are getting files using the file adapter.
>and if needed sent as an attachment or detached from the message and then from receiver mail adpter to application server..if possible content conversion has to be done.
Not sure I follow this part. You validate your incoming file and what do you do
1. If the file is valid?
2. If the file is invalid?
are you sending mails in both cases.
Like pinted out there are multiple places where validations can be done,
1. Module --> https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/f013e82c-e56e-2910-c3ae-c602a67b918e
2. Mapping --> Graphical / Java
There are many options and they all depend on the incomuing payload and the entire process.
So , if you can give us more details, maybe an optimum solution can be discusses.

Sending Text File through Mail Adapter

Hi Group,
I need to send my Target as Mail attachment in the Text File?Can any body Suggest

Hi swabap,
You need to use PayloadSwapBean module in the Mail receiver adapter. This module will send the payload as an attchment to the mail server.
Check the following link

Send .bmp or .jpg File over Mail Adapter

Hi All,
I need assistance on the scenario: .jpeg or .bmp File -> XI -> SapInbox
The contents of a file will be only the image and nothing else.

Hi All,
I have configured my Sender as File Adapter and Receiver Mail Adapter.
I have my source File (.jpg) on my PC.
I have the following problems in RWB when I check my Adapters :

I cannot create a Sender Agreement as my interface is only going to get the File and send it out to Mail.
What is it that I am missing.

File to Mail Adapter but only payload no namespace

Hi SAP Guru's,
I want to know how to handle File to Mail interface with only payload in the text file.
I am only getting this in the file
ACK3|24052010095354|4BC8612A7A530073E100800024590A61|1005241738SPBC8612A7A5000|D0000018|SXI|75130|(INFO) File Sent|PAYMENTS
and I want to transform the structure like this to perform mapping otherwise mapping won't work.
<ns0:ContentContainer xmlns:ns0="http://s.com/xi/pa/10/lite">
 <payload>ACK3|24052010095354|4BC8612A7A530073E100800024590A61|1005241738SPBC8612A7A5000|D0000018|SXI|75130|(INFO) File Sent|PAYMENTS</payload>
</ns0:ContentContainer>
I believe it is only possible through xslt but I don't to know how to use it.
Can somebody please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Iqbal

Hi
You can use FCC in sender channel, with slight change in ur structure,
ns0:ContentContainer xmlns:ns0="http://s.com/xi/pa/10/lite">
*<data>*
<payload>ACK3|24052010095354|4BC8612A7A530073E100800024590A61|1005241738SPBC8612A7A5000|D0000018|SXI|75130|(INFO) File Sent|PAYMENTS</payload>

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)

Configuring a mail adapter

I have been going through procedure to create a File - Mail scenario.
I was going through the SDN TV link for the same and it is told that no target DT creation is required and need to download from market place.
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/docs/media/uuid/70e47c62-0c01-0010-dea1-83390d4beb4c
Does this mean I cannot create DT for Mail scenario manually?
If I have to download the DT... please provide the link and procedure to import it to my NS.
Also please provide step by step instructions for creating this scenario.
I have been through blogs.. I came across this scenario using XSLT, Mail Receiver Adaptor Configuration, how to implement dynamic mail address, eMail Report as Attachment but i failed to find good blogs that descripe step by step.
Thanks,
Venkat.

Venkat,
You can download from this location mentioned in this thread:

Sender "Mail" adapter - CSV file attachment

Hi there
I'm looking for some help in configuring a sender mail adapter that receives ".csv" files. I did read some blogs that mention using the "PayloadSwapBean" module to read the mail attachment instead of the mail content. My problem is to now convert the ".csv" file into a message. Is there a module that I can use ( is it the "MessageTransfomBean" ) and how. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Salil

Hi Salil,
If you want to send a mail with a body and attachments, the message sender HAS to provide an XI message with attachments. I doubt a CSV file does justice.
As Renjith said you need to convert CSV to XmL.
A short description about the Standard Modules:
MessageTransformationBean is a standard module used to apply the XSLT mapping to the adapter module by using Transform.class ( This xslt mapping is done to create a mail package, Dont confuse with the actual mapping in your case this is NOT for converting csv to xml).
Also this module can be used to change the name and type of payloads by using Transform.contentType, Transform.contentDisposition, Transform.contentDescription.
PayloadSwapbean is a standard module for replacing payloads with other payloads (SWAP)
If you want to give each attachment a certain name use Parameters, swap.keyname for name of the payload and swap.keyvalue.
I Hope the use of standard modules is understood.
