How to generate Empty file

Hi all,
I need to generate a empty file via XI when then there is no file in the sender directory during the particular time.
we can't go with adapter module solution to do these.
Please provide with the possible solutions.

Hi,
"I need to generate a empty file via XI when then there is no file in the sender directory during the particular time"
your requirement looks a good example of BAM (Business Activity monitoring)....
1) you can implement it using a BPM. Implement a condition in BPM for the first Receive step....
2) this condition should check for how long it should wait to receive a file (have this time duration confirmed..)this will tell you that there is no file in the server to pick...
3) develop a dummy structure (DT)....when your condition in step 3 is satisfied you can use this structure.
4) before using this structure create a mapping with target as this dummy structure...change the occurence of the root node to 0..1
5) In this mapping disable all the target fields. this will create an empty output.
6) send this output to the desired location and you have created your empty file.
I have not tested or implemented this scenario....this is only what I would have tried doing in the first attempt.
If you succeed using this method then dont forget to post the final solution.

Abhishek.

    Dear All,

    Requirement:     For B2B bank requires payment orders in MT100 format wrapped in XML.
    At Present:     I am using PMW format MT100(standard) in payment method. With the use of this format system is generating MT100 text file.
    In this standard PMW format MT100, check box for u201Dmapping using DME engineu201D is not selected. 
    My Try:      I  change in format output from file to XML in Payment Media Format (T. Code OBPM1), but it doesnu2019t work.
    In data medium display (T. Code FDTA) system is showing the following error.
    The XML page cannot be displayed
    Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
    XML document must have a top level element. Error processing resource 'file:///C:/Users/888881/AppData/Local/Microsoft/Wind...
    In view source system is showing only this,

    My Question:      How to generate MT100 file in XML ?
    Should I have to create DME Format Tree in ( T. Code DMEE )  and  create new Payment Media Format (T. Code OBPM1), with the mapping using DME engine ?
    Please give your valuable suggesions,
    Thank you,
    Rony

    Hi Prabhu,
    The program SAPFPAYM generates the payment Medium  on the basis of your configuration and background settings, this program does not bydefault give the output in the XML.
    Varient creation for the PMW in T. Code OBPM4, use the same program, which i already done it, even without this it is not be possible to create any payment Medium.

    We want to install SAP Fiori Front-End (GW+UI) on the Sandbox system with SAP Netweaver 7.3.1. (SP14)
    Gateway component (SAP GW CORE 200 SP10) was installed without any problems.
    But I need to install UI-add-on (NW UI Extensions v1.0) and when I try to install it via SAINT, transaction said me that I need to generate xml-file for it (as in General notes for UI add-on mentioned).
    But I have Solution Manager 7.0.1 and in MOPZ for this version I do not have option  "install Add-on" as it written in Guide for ui add-on installation.
    Could you please help me with advice how to generate xml-file for UI add-on installation on SolMan v.7.0.1?
    If where is no way, but only to upgrade Solution Manager, maybe somebody could give me xml-file for your system (for NW 731) and I will change it to my needs, I will be very grateful!

  • How to handle empty file using sftp adapter

    Hi,
    Please explain me how to handle empty files in sftp adapter.
    Thanks,
    Enivass

    Hi Enivaas,
                        I don't have the seeburger sftp adapter at hand at the moment, but asfar as I remember, this does not specifically have an empty-file handling option like the standard ftp adapter.
    So to stop emtyp files from being written, guess would need to handle this at the mapping level. For example, check for target creation criteria in the header node in mapping. If the creation criteria is not met, you can throw an error in mapping.
    You may also incorporate this condition in your Receiver determination. In this case, if the condition is not satisfied, no receiver is determined in PI.

  • How to Handle Empty Files

    Hi Experts,
    I am doing File to File Scenario.
    If my Sender systems file is Empty , that means there is no Records in the File .
    How to Handle Empty Files ??????????
    I want to know For both Sender and As wel as Receiver Adapters
    Please Let me know..
    Regards
    Khanna

    See if u are having a sender file adapter and the file is empty u can tell the if it has to 'Process the empty file' or 'Skip the empty file processing'.
    Similarly if you have a message to going to your Receiver file adapter and the message is empty then you can decide still if you want to create a 'File with empty records' or skip creating the same.

  • How to generate PNG file to the disk folder by IBOT?

    Is there a piece of code in JavaScript on how to generate PNG file to the disk folder by IBOT?
    thanks a lot

    Please disregard this message. The information below is only semi-accurate. When I get some kinks worked out I'll edit this again. -Bill
    FYI,
    Don't really know if I'm adding anything useful but here it is. I use NetBeans and I simply added an images folder so now I have my package (deckofcards) and a sub package deckofcards.images.
    The image:
    back: Image {
                url: "{__DIR__}images/B.JPG",
                backgroundLoading:true
                placeholder:bind placeholder
            };works and the value of "{__DIR__}images/B.JPG" becomes
    <CARD backUrl="jar:file:/C:/Users/Bill/Documents/NetBeansProjects/DeckOfCards/dist/DeckOfCards.jar!/deckofcards/B.JPG">
      ...when I marshal. That string (backUrl) will unmarshal correctly and can be use in the url variable to display and image too.

  • Intersep or Finder Generating Empty Files

    Since installing latest Quicktime and security updates on my Mac, finder has been generating empty files on a Win 2000 mac volume mounted using afp:/at/servername:*. These are not ._filename stuff. I copy hi-res photoshop files to folder watched by Intersep OPI software for low-res generation. During this process, after low-res is generated and copied to its proper folder and hi-res is moved to its destination folder, a 4k empty text file with same name as original hi-res file is sometimes generated--about 25% of the time. This only occurs on my Mac as I haven't updated rest of machines. Wave says this is a Mac OS problem and doesn't seem interested in seeking a solution.

    Amiga,
    These apparenly "empty" files are probably one half of the Apple-Double file system paradigm. Many Mac files contain a "resource fork" as part of the file, but some file systems cannot handle this resource fork. When these files are transferred to a file system that cannot handle the resource fork, and everything works correctly, the information contained in the resource fork is placed in a second, similarly-named, file.
    This is probably what you are seeing. If you are working with images professionally, my guess would be that you will want all of the "extended attributes" that are normally contained in the resource fork to be left intact. In this case, using the HFS+ file system, and only the HFS + file system, is the way to go. Once an image has been converted to some compressed, lower resolution format such as JPG, this copy can be sent to some other file system. The originals, however, will be better off in HFS+.

  • How to generate XML file based on XSD in SSIS

    please provide step by step process to create xml based on XSD in SSIS  

    Hi hemasankar,
    In SQL Server Integrated Services, we can generate XML Schema (XSD) file based on a XML file with XML Source Editor. If we want to generate XML file based on a XSD file, we can use Generate Sample XML feature in Visual Studio. For more details, please refer
    to the following steps:
    Click on "XML Schema Explorer" or 'Use the XML Schema Explorer...' to open XML Schema Explorer in Visual Studio. 
    If your Schema file is valid and you are having elements, right-click on element and click on "Generate Sample XML", this functionality generates XML file in temp folder and open ups in the XML Editor.
    The following two document about how to generate XML file based on a XSD file are for your reference:

  • How to generate Trace files

    Hi,

    How to generate trace files? Pls help me out.

    I dont have access to production server to see the
    trace file. Is there a way to see the content of the
    trace file from client machine?No. At least there isn't one without additional work from your administrator. I remember I've seen somewhere some kind of solution when user_dump_dest is used as oracle directory (specific oracle object) in your db and then use either external tables or utl_file or something like that to read the trace file. Of course this assumes your DBA should do some work before.
    However I'd say that simply getting trace file from server is much easier :)
    Consider, Autotrace option in sqlplus. With the help
    of Autotrace set option, we can see the trace output
    on the sqlplus screen for the anonymous blocks. Different tool, different behaviour.
    Is there a way to see the trace for the stored
    procedures?Explained above.

  • File Content Conversion Problem of not generating empty file

    Hi All,

    <b>Can anybody suggest how to generate the alert if any of the 3 text files is empty.</b>
    Thanks,

    Rajeev~
    I dont find ur mail Id in ur Business card.Post the same..I will send you across a PDF with steps to write a adapter module.You would need to extend the same to check the payload for empty data and accordingly create a XML payload with checkpointer.
    For validating this value in a BPM use the FORK step and check the payload in the condition editor.
    Refer to this url for the same.

  • Best Practices:: How to generate XML file from a ResultSet

    Hi all,
    Could someone please suggest the best practices of how to generate an XML file from a resultset? I am developing a web application in Java with Oracle database and one of my tasks is to generate an XML file when the user, for example, click a "download as XML" button on the JSP. The application is basically like an Order with line items. I am using Struts and my first thought has been to have an action class which will extend struts's DownloadAction and through StAX's Iterator API to create an XML file. I intend to have a POJO which will have properties of all columns of my order and line items tables so that for each order I get all line items and:
    1. Write order details then
    2. Through an iterator write line items of that order to an XML file.
    I will greatly appreciate for comments or suggestions on the best way to do this through any pointers on the Web.
    alex

    Use a OracleWebRowSet in which an XML representation of the result set may be obtained.

    Regards
    Vids

    hi,
    regarding report, there is a dedicated report forum. you should post there.
    but answer for your question is form is nothing to do with the pdf generation. you can call the report from the as usual.
    In the report you should set the properties like
    destype to 'file'
    desname to 'path with file name'
    desformat to 'pdf'
