Generating file name with date

Hello,
I try to create via ABAP a file name with date in it. Normaly my script must run but the script won't run. Please help. Thanks.
data = sy-datum. " = data set to sys date

data = data - 1. " = last day of last month
file name creation
p_filename+0(21) = '/sapio/flatfiles/xxx/'. " = first part of file name
p_filename21(6) = data0(6). " = second part of file name
p_filename+27(15) = '_XXXX_XXXXX.csv'. " = last part of file name
p_subrc = 0.

Using the regex to match the file name with date time

Hello all,
currently I had problem to match the following file name with the date time. Of course I can use this regex like ""(\\\\w+|.+).(zip)" to match it. However in the current application i need to parse the file name and get the current date time to check if it is matched. Does anyone have good idea?
{code}
testfile10-08-09-2008-08-21-04-24-0443.zip
testfile11-08-09-2008-08-22-04-24-0441.zip
{code}
thanks in advanced!

- with "\\\\w" you probably meant "\\w";
- "\\w+|.+" doesn't make sense: you can simply do ".+" in that case;
- ".(zip)" will also match the string "%zip" or "Ezip".

Receiver File Name with date

Hi @,
I have a requirement where I wanted to genereate the recevier file name as TestYYYYMMDD.txt format.
Note that in Receiver target structure date is not coming and output file also we dont require date data.
I tried to put the Date root node and date field in target structure and in Receiver FCC i have not put the Date root node name but still date data is generated in output file.
Since its a Comma separated file hence I can not use CUT option which is applicable for Fixed length file.
I used the time stamp option but it is giving HH.MM.SS details which i dont want.
Is there any other options available.
chirag

You can add a node 'TRAIL' with 'FILENAME' sub-node; Your target format is like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_FILE_STRING_OUT xmlns:ns0="HTTP://WWW.XXX.COM">
   <Recordset>
      <Row>3</Row>
   </Recordset>
   <Trail>
      <Filename>DFS-XXX-20090804173307</Filename>
   </Trail>
</ns0:MT_FILE_STRING_OUT>
When mapping, the UDF can be:
(imports: java.text.SimpleDateFormat;)
SimpleDateFormat sdf = new SimpleDateFormat("yyyyMMddHHmmss");
String ds = sdf.format(new Date(System.currentTimeMillis()));
String filename = "DFS-ADSFCL-" + ds;
return filename;
In file adapter, you can use the adapter attributes to get the file name and the conversion to cut the trail node in the file...
Done!

Implement check for File Names with data into TRG table

hi,
I am trying to load the Multiple files names & Autonumber to oracle table T1 which is further loaded the auto-number with data to target table TRG. My problem is when the same name file comes again due to size then load it again. & also don't insert Target (TRG) table rows with same data while insert the only those records/rows which are not in Target Table(TRG) .. Is this standard approach. becoz in this way I thing loading Performance speed will b down??
Any other or best recommended approach???/
Thanks

Hey Jason,
Create a validation of type exists. in expression 1 put:
SELECT 1
FROM DUAL
WHERE UPPER(:P9_FILE) LIKE '%TEST.HTML';
{code}
change P9_FILE to your file browse item name and change '%TEST.HTML' to '%YOUR_FILE_NAME'
Hope this helps,

Have file name with date working but appending the time to file name can't get a result

DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(26)
SELECT @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR(26),getDate(),110),'-','-'
Have this appended to a filename like: log_01-15-2015. Don't know what to add to SQL code to get the get the time and append time in hours, min, sec. like: log_01-15-2015_10:01:33
DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @dt = REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,110),'-','-') +'_'+ CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,108)
EXEC master.dbo.sp_configure 'show advanced options',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
EXEC master.dbo.sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell',1
RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE
SET @bcpCommand = 'bcp "SELECT * FROM ##Temp ORDER BY barcode" queryout "C:\TEMP\Log\ContainerHistory_Log_' + @dt +'" -c -T'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @bcpCommand
I am trying to append to the file created with the date a time stamp but when appending the time part for the filename results aren't creating the file. If it's just doing the date part then it is working. Any idea what is wrong?

Since you added ":" to the file name, the file name is not valid. You can change ":" to "-".
DECLARE @dt AS VARCHAR(50)
SELECT @dt = CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,110) +'_'+ REPLACE(CONVERT(VARCHAR,CURRENT_TIMESTAMP,108), ':', '-')
SELECT @dt

File name with Dateand time stamp.

Hi All,
I want to generate a file with a date and time stamp.
For that in File Receiver adaptor i am using option "Add Time Stamp" in File Construction mode. however it is generationg file name as: FileName_20082104_121211_645.txt . In this I don't know what these last three characters "_645" are? And In the File name i only want a file name with datetime stamp . I don't require underscore in between. for eg: FileName_20082104121211.txt (FileName_dateTime.txt)
Can anybody suggest me the way to achive this?
Thanks,
Atul

@FileName_20082104_121211_645
The date time stamp in XI's file adapter will be in that format. This is to avoid over writing of files created simultaneously at the same time. So the last 3 digits is a form of an unique id to distinguish between the same.
In case you want the format as FileName_20082104_121211, use the dynamic configuration and create the file name inside the mapping itself and pass it across.
To get an idea about the same, ref:
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/11/10/xi-the-same-filename-from-a-sender-to-a-receiver-file-adapter--sp14 - an usage of the same.

Hi there,
I am facing the same problem that you have stated in your Feb 26, 2002 10:28 AM message regarding "change file name with oreilly servlet", I would like to change the file name to include a unique identifier upon upload, did you ever find a solution to your problem?

File name and Date Display as an obj not the data

All,
     The issue that I am having is that when I view a Visio file hosted on SharePoint. The file was created in Visio 2007 and when it is opened by Visio 2007 and Visio Viewer in SharePoint. The file name field object and date
modified object show the information. The issue is when the file is opened by a device that has Visio 2010 the information does not show. Is there something that I can do for these users to have it show correctly.

Hi，
Which way did you open the Visio 2007 file in SharePoint？Opened it in the browser or downloaded it to open？ I had test in my environment. Insert a text box>Add a data/time field, it worked fine both in Visio 2007, 2010.
Thus, let‘s do some test to narrow down the issue’s reason.
1.Download the Visio 2007 file and open it with Visio 2010.
If it worked fine, the issue seems more related to Visio object and sharePoint connection.
If it does not display the information in Visio 2010 by a device client, the issue was more related to Visio 2010 client.
2.Create a new drawing included file name and Date
field in Visio 2010.
If the new drawing displays correct, the issue is more related the original, please try to repair the file or re-create the file name and Date filed.
If the new drawing still displays incorrect, please try to start Visio 2010 in safemode, some third-party add-ins my be casued the issue.
If the issue still exists, try to repair Visio 2010.

Filespaces in generated file names - unfortunate

I'm trying to upload all the files generated by an export to directory. Many of the auto-generated file names use the name of a page (which is displayed in the navigation - so i don't want to remove the spaces).
This creates files with blanks in the name, and most FTP implementations will choke on this.
#1 - this should be fixed
#2 - does anyone have a workaround for managing this?

Spaces are not valid in web pages. If used, they have to be escaped with %20
If you want to change the names of files before trying to use them with some web publishing program, this shell script might be of use. It changes spaces to _ makes upper case letters lower case, etc.
#!/bin/bash
# Pete keeps giving me photos with bad file names
for i in *
do
OLDNAME="$i"
NEWNAME=`echo "$i" | tr ' ' '_' | tr A-Z a-z | sed s/-/-/g`
if [ "$NEWNAME" != "$OLDNAME" ]
then
TMPNAME="$i"_TMP
echo ""
mv -v -- "$OLDNAME" "$TMPNAME"
mv -v -- "$TMPNAME" "$NEWNAME"

Files arranged by date added, but changing file name changes date added

I've got my Downloads folder set to view (in the Finder) by "date added", a very useful feature. However, if I change a file name, the "date added" changes to that new time, and "date modified" stays the same as it was. This doesn't make sense to me... isn't date added just that, when it was added to the folder? Why would this happen? Any workarounds or suggestions?

You should use the 'File/Directory Info' functionality.
This will return the last modificatoin of the file.

Shared photo-stream, makes long file names with 42 random characters

Windows icloud 3.1, in a shared photo-stream, makes file names with 42 random characters long. It didn't do this in iCloud 2. I have installed iCloud 3.1 on a windows 8.0 and 8.1 machine and two Windows 7 machines. They all do the same thing. It used to give me file names like "IMG_0001.jpg" now it gives me random file names like "01a9fc3363330464233a142486180f0c1622eb9fca.jpg" all the pictures are out order.
Does anyone have fix for this? Does any one else have this problem? I have posted this before and know one else that uses windows seams to have this problem exect me. I did call Apple and they did some research and bumped me up to senior techs and eventuality Apple told me this is working the way it was designed to. This is extremely stupid, I need the sequential file names so the pictures will sort correctly.

I have never found a solution for this.
I did find a Work Around. What I do when I receive a folder full of pictures from another ios iPhone user, I copy all the photos as a batch from the PhotoStream folder into a free Windows program called "FastStone Photo Resizer" from www.FastStone.org. This program allows you to resize the photos as a batch to what ever size you wish. In my case I resize them to 2560 x 1440 which fills my 27" monitor and reduces the file size of each picture from 2MB or 3MB down to about 450 KB without degrading the picture as far as what you see on the screen.
This program will also within the same batch operation, allow you to sort the pictures by "Date Taken" which is the Date and Time the picture was taken. It gets this information from the EXIF data in the jpg file. This program will then rename the files with different numbering format options including date, time, alphanumberic and with just simple numbers starting at what ever number you wish to start with. I can get files that look like this again "IMG_0001.jpg" and have all the pictures in the correct order that they were taken. At this point, I save the pictures directly to a folder on my PC. The cool thing about this is, all the EXIF data is preserved as well. I can process a 100 pictures in less that 60 seconds. I hope this helps. For me, I can now live with this iCloud numbering defect.

Camparing file name with a value of the field in the source

Hi All,
I have a file sender. I need to compare the file name with the value of a field in the source and then map to the target.
For example:
<Record>
<Date>20071103></Date>
<name>abcd</name>
</Record>
the name of the file would be 20071103. i need to check this file name with value in 'date' field , if its true then we need to map it to target
please suggest some way to meet the reqirement
thanks

Hi,
Here is the reason i need to do this:
The data is loaded by DTP in process chain. Overlaping requests are deleted. But, iIn some cases requests with the same selection options need not to be deleted. My idea was to change selection options in Manage(infocube) with Abap program without changing selection options in DTP filter, so that the system would not recognize requests as "overlaping requests".
So, where is the information about shown in the field Selection Options is stored? In which tables?
Thanks
