I searched on SDN but did not get any perfect answer.

Check this below details out:

Hi, Ranjan.
First of all, let's look at the meaning of the error.
> ...Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 2 according to
> structure 'GL_FileUpload_SAPECC_Header_DT1':java.lang.Exception:
> ERROR in configuration: more elements in file csv structure than
> field names specified!
It seems that XI interpreted 2nd line as
Header_DT1 not as Item_DT1 that you meant.
> GL,GLI,4011,3011,,,,,,AU,600,7000,8000,9000,5000,RK,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
That's why it says this line has more elements than the structure
defined(Header_DT1)
And the reason why XI misinterpreted the above as Header is that
you used keyFieldValue with the same value.
> ...Header_DT1.keyFieldValue: GL
> ...Item_DT1.keyFieldValue: GL
According to the following help,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
it says like the following.
Key Field Name
If you specified a variable number of substructures for Recordset
Structure, in other words, at least one substructure has the value
*, then the substructures must be identified by the parser from
their content. This means that a key field must be set with different
constants for the substructures. In this case, you must specify a key
field and the field name must occur in all substructures.
How about using different constants for header and item if possible?
Good luck.

Flat File to XML using content conversion.

Hi Experts,

HI,
Possible mention the source Message/Data Type and Target Data Type and Mapping Rules reuired. Then I think it may be useful to give some hints.

Receiver SAP SFTP adapter-errorlog on SFTP server

Experts,
I am using receiver SAP SFTP adapter to connect to an SFTP server and send files.Receiver SFTP server is a VMS system.I could able to write the files to home directory of the user that has been given,but apart from writing the files I am seeing warning log file in the the target folder on SFTP server like below description.I am giving dot(.) in the file path to write the files to the default directory that has been assigned to the user given by receiver SFTP server team.
WARNING: ssh_file_server_receive_proc: platform cannot stat() filename /home/dir1/dir2 ./TestFile(TestFile is my file name) .
Just to test,we placed files in the receiver SFTP server using same user and password as the PI recv SFTP channel with command line and winsCP client tool,but we don't see any error logs on the server with WinSCP tool or command line transfer of the files.Log file with above warning is generating only when we place files on the server using SAP SFTP adapter in the recv channel of PI.
Please let me know,if you have any insight or seen similar issue.
Thank you,

Hi Anitha,
You should use File content conversion to convert flat file into XML file.
Please check the below link, which help you to know how to do it.

SAP SFTP Adapter

HI FRIENDS,
I need your help in two points -
1 -- Is there a document on sdn which covers the detailed information on SAP SFTP adapter? I found few links online but they are only covering few features. None of them talks about any limitation on the adapter.
2-- I read in some of the SDN forum that SFTP adapter doesnt have the capability to read the files from multiple directories. So, if we get any requirement to read the files from multiple directories using sftP, why could be a possible solution for this requirement?
Thanks for your time. PS.

URGENT : Program to convert flat file to XML file.

Hello,
       Good Morning. I want an urgent program to convert a flat file seperated by '/' to an XML file format and store that in the the application server. If any one has done such a developement, could you please send me the code.
The flat file format is as below :
72/070414/114147/11973//100-//EA/00000000///04198//RRT0/RC23///////353825001511172/72/070414/123620/11973//1000//EA/00000000///04198//RRT0/RC23///////354762008125236/72/070414/125411/13814//1000//EA/00000000///04198//INV/ID06///////90000000002697/72/070414/140820/11973//1000//EA/00000000///04198//RRT0/RC23///////353057002479718/72/070414/145438/13814//1000//EA/00000000///04198//INV/ID06///////90000000002739/72/070414/145438/11973//1000-//EA/00000000///04198//INV/ID06///////353057002479718/72/070414/150008/13814//1000
It needs to be filtered by removing the '/' and also grouped based on two fields namely store number and transaction number. The sample XML output required is as below :

How to convert flat file to XMl without key field value

Hi experts,
I have a input CSV Flat file which has got one HEADER line and Multiple Detail records.
I do not have any key field value to convert this FLAT file to XML using normal file content conversion.
Is there any module or Bean which can be used to convert this Flat File to XML.
Or any other remedy to overcome this problrm.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Pradeep

Hi Saurabh,
Thanks for the reply.
Ur understanding is perfectly alright.Lets say my file is like below.

I am not using the first line in the mappiing.
Are you saying that I need to ignore the first line while doing the conversion using Recordset OFFSET ?
Or do I need to make a single structure taking all the fields from header as well as details and while defining the structure I need to ignore the fields from header?
Please suggest.
