Idoc to Txt

Hi,
I want to convert an idoc to txt. I converted the idoc to xls,and it look organized with headers and sdata od the idoc all separated. but when i convert to txt it's all messed up because the txt editor deletes the blank spaces.Anyone know who can i put all organized like this:
Number Type Product Price discount tax
1 M xpto 2.0

Hi Ricardo,
PERFORM set_fixlen(saplgrap) USING '0' size.
This is used to set the length of each record including your blanks
PERFORM set_trail_blanks(saplgrap) USING 'X'.
This is used to maintain trailing spaces when downloading to PC.
Hope this will help.

Idoc to txt file to mail

Hello everyone,
I have the following scenario:
IDOC -> XI -> Mail w/ .txt attach with fields of IDOC separated by ';'
How can i "concatenate" all fields into one text file and then send this in an attachment via email ?
Thank you in advance,

Hi Nuno
What you can do here is
1. parse IDOC XML into a flat file using UDF or Java mapping and pass it to a string. use the mail package and map this string field to Content field of mail package. Now at mail adapter use Mail package with attachment.
2. You write a mail adapter module to parse the file and attach it to mail.
3. Use the StrictXMLtoPlain Bean at receiver mail adapter to parse IDOC XML into a flat file and then use MessageTransformBean to attach it to the mail
Using Mail package usage will allow dynamic mail message.
Thanks

Message transformation in BPM

I have a scenario where I'm collecting Debmas from R3 and I want to convert it to a text file.
I'm unable to transform the multiple Debmas to a single xml structure with multiple debmas.
The BPM collects the IDOCs correctly but during the transformation it outputs only one IDOC .
In my message map testing it is able to convert the multiple Idocs to a single structure but within the BPM it does not do that.
Please suggest what could be the issue.
Thanks
Manoj

Hi Manoj,
Have you entered the correlation correctly.. (the condition for collecting IDOCS, a primary key in most cases)
When u r collecting Idoc Debmas, ( Customer Master i believe), u should have the mappings as IDOC XSD to IDOC and then IDOC to txt conversion.. Am I right ?
inbound interface: target structure (txt)
outbound interface : idoc
abstract interface : for collecting multiple idocs..
mappings would be like this :
IDOC to IDOC XSD and
IDOC XSD to Txt structure .
Things to look out for while developing the interface:
Occurences and BPM data, like selecting multiline and defining correlation.
You should recheck the container for any discrepancies.
I am sending you two links (as there's some information missing, to identify your problem)

Variable filename and folder in receiver cc

Dear experts,
On PI, I need to create a (text-) file with a variable name and folder. The scenario is as follows:
idoc-> PI -> txt file
In my incoming Idoc I get the following data:
- directory where the txt file should be saved;
- name that the txt file should get.
How can I realise this in PI? Using variable substitution? As I never done this before, I have a hard time getting this to work...
Please help.
Thanks in advance
William

Hi,
Use Dynamic Configuration:
Input will be 2 variables var1, var2.
String Name1 = var1;
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key1 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
conf.put(key1, Name1);
String Name2 = var2;
DynamicConfigurationKey key2 = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "Directory");
conf.put(key2, Name2);
return "";
Maping:
Var1---
UDF----TargetMessageNode.
Var2---
Under ID: Enable ASMA in file receiver adapter and chk FileName and Directory.
and put * under File name and / underTarget Directory(File receiver).
NOTE: U can alter this UDF according to ur req.
Thanks

RCVR File Content Conversion - Remove empty Recordsets

Hello everyone,
Here's my scenario: IDOC > XI > TXT (File Content Conversion)
Here's how my output XML currently looks like:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:D001FILE_MT xmlns:ns0="http://www.pharmaindustries.com">
   <Recordset/>
   <Recordset>
      <MATLCODE>00155581</MATLCODE>
      <MATLNAME>ALCOHOL REFINED 96% V/V (BALAYAN)</MATLNAME>
   </Recordset>
   <Recordset>
      <MATLCODE>00155581</MATLCODE>
      <MATLNAME>ALCOHOL REFINED 96% V/V (BALAYAN)</MATLNAME>
   </Recordset>
   <Recordset/>
   <Recordset>
      <MATLCODE>20388853</MATLCODE>
      <MATLNAME>POLYSORBATE 60 SD (TWEEN 60 SD)</MATLNAME>
   </Recordset>
</ns0:D001FILE_MT>
Currently, the conversion settings in the receiver file adapter results into this:
BLANK
00155581          ALCOHOL REFINED 96% V/V (BALAYAN)
00155581          ALCOHOL REFINED 96% V/V (BALAYAN)
BLANK
20388853          POLYSORBATE 60 SD (TWEEN 60 SD)
I want to get remove the BLANK LINES from the text file so that it now resembles this:
00155581          ALCOHOL REFINED 96% V/V (BALAYAN)
00155581          ALCOHOL REFINED 96% V/V (BALAYAN)
20388853          POLYSORBATE 60 SD (TWEEN 60 SD)
Here are the conmmand parameters already existing in the "Content Conversion Parameters":
Recordset.fieldNames
Recordset.fieldFixedLengths
Recordset.endSeparator
Would anyone know which command I should add in this section so that empty "Recordsets" are removed from the text file?
Thanks in advance!
Glenn

Hi,
   as per my understanding, u have teo record sets
   i.e Recordset(bold one which has no fileds)
       Recordet(which has two fileds)
      if you use Recordset.field Separator-- 'nl'
      nothing but ignoring the first record set
     for second record set(which is not bold)
    provide FCC parameters which i have provided previously.
    still u r facing problem, try with
      ignore recordset name - true
   Recordset.fieldContentFormatting - ignore
note: here you have two record set i.e<Recordset>(blod)
         <Recordset>(not bold).
warm regards
mahesh.

Help to Receiver Content Conversion

Hi, i am facing IDoc2File Scenaio.
This file should be a .txt and only should have six numbers.
Incoming is an IDoc with the payload:
<ZPP_EDI_TAFEL SEGMENT="1">
<TAFNR>1</TAFNR>
<DATEI>ERGB.TXT</DATEI>
<TAFIST>014</TAFIST>
<TAFSOLL>020</TAFSOLL>
</ZPP_EDI_TAFEL>
This should be converted into a flat file with content of teh values from TAFNR and TAFIST. It should look like: 014020
I am trying to achieve this with the Content Conversion in the ReceiverAdapter.
in ID is the message type:
MT_Tafel
-Tafel_recordset
--Tafel_Details_Structure
---TAFIST
---TAFSOLL
In my understanding it's like recordset Structure is: Tafel_Details_Structure
So my Parameters look like:
Tafel_Details_Structure.fieldSeperator = ,
Tafel_Details_Structure.endSeperator = 'nl'
Tafel_Details_Structure.fieldNames = TAFIST,TAFSOLL
funny thing is, that after sending the IDoc the txt file contains:
<ns0:MT_Tafel xmlns:ns0="http://www.ips.com/jsn/HatzIDoc">
<SEGMENT>1</SEGMENT>
<TAFNR>1</TAFNR>
<DATEI>ERGB.TXT</DATEI>
<TAFIST>014</TAFIST>
<TAFSOLL>020</TAFSOLL>
</ns0:MT_Tafel>
So there is no content conversion at all. Can someone help?!
br, Jens

Hi Vijaya,
acttually i read everything about it, but i am not able to figure out what i have done wrong.

Mulitple Message Transformation BPM Problem

I am getting a map failure exception because of the following reason (see below) and am not sure what to do about it.
I am a BPM process and have a received a populated Request Message, mapped the Request Data into a Bapi request (via BPM Transformation), Synchronously called the Bapi (via BPM Send), and next mapped the data from the Bapi Response and Original Request into a single Response message (2 messages into 1 message). I am getting a map failure when I am sending the two messages (Bapi Response and Original Request) into the Map process. It appears as the original Request data is lost (populated data is gone)and this is why the map is failing. I have tested the map independently and have no problems. Any suggestions?

Hi Manoj,
Have you entered the correlation correctly.. (the condition for collecting IDOCS, a primary key in most cases)

Hi all,
i'm working in a idoc-to file scenario. now its working fine and the file has been written in the target directory of the receiver .but its in xml format i need to store it in a TXT format.
In the receiver communication channel configuration i used file content conversion message protocal and also mentioned the FILETYPE as text and FILEENCODING as UTF-8. i maintained content conversion parameters also.
but still i'm getting the file in a XML format. it wouldbe very helpul if anyone could solve this one.
Thanks,
Hari

Hi,
Its really surprizing the to see even after maintaining all the parameters you are getting XML output.
Can you verify the receiv er end structure of Message type

N IDoc s message to one txt file

I have finished IDoc to file scenarios.
If I send n IDocs , there will be n txt files.
Can I just get a TXT file, with one line with one IDoc?
Thanks.

hi
Another idea for collecting IDocs consists in using standard functionality of the IDoc. Instead of sending the IDoc directly to the XI via the IDoc adapter, you can download the IDocs gathered in a file with XML format. This file can now be uploaded by the sender file adapter. As the XML structure is the same as the IDoc adapter produces, there is no change of the behaviour of the message, besides there no single IDoc inside, but multiple IDocs instead.
1)As first step you go to WE21 and create an XML file port in the application system. Apply here a function module for creating the file name. You can use a standard module or a self-written module.
2)Schedule report RSEOUT00 with a variant where you assign the IDoc type, the xml port and the number of IDocs which shall be collected.
3)The report collects all IDocs in one file, until the "Maximal number of IDoc" is reached. When you have for example 2400 IDocs and you set "Maximal number of IDoc" to 1000, you receive 3 files, two with 1000 IDocs and one with 400. Inside the file there is one IDoc tag for each IDoc.
Do not gather too many IDocs into one file. The file size should be considered carefully. Too large files might cause memory leaks, when your hardware is not sufficient.
The files can be uploaded by the sender file adapter. When you collect IDocs of the same type, the Mapping can be done the same way as for IDocs processed by the IDoc adapter.
