000000073280004750,4750,1,EA,EUR
How can I ignore from the field "LAND"?
How can I return the items?
Thank you
Elad

Hi!
Then your target structure may have a "cardinality" of "1...1". That is regardless of the amount of elements in your source structure the target structure only contains one element/record.
What you need is "0.. n" or "1...n"
Change your Datatype and/or mapping and it will work.
Hope this helps!

Ignore fields in File Content Conversion

Hi all,
I need to read first 9 fields in Content conversion from text file and ignore all the others.The problem is I don't know exactly the number of fields(it varies from file to file).
I try to use the following in my content conversion:
item.fieldSeparator = ;
item.fieldNames = "Names of item fields"
item.lastFieldsOptional = NO
ignoreRecordSetName = true
Now it works with files with 9 fields,but doesn't with more than 9...
I tried with item.lastFieldsOptional = YES as well but it didn't help...
Anyone any suggestions?
Thanks in advance

The problem is I don't know exactly the number of fields(it varies from file to file).
>>>> then how do you write your FCC ? because the mandatory parameters fieldFixedLengths or fieldSeparator and the fieldNames will expect a defined set of values and not dynamic.maybe you can read the file record row kind and then extract the fields u need.
item.lastFieldsOptional
>>>
this is to ignore only the last field.
xml.lastFieldsOptional=YES|NO
This parameter specifies whether the last fields can be omitted (YES) or not (NO) in a CSV structure. If you do not make a specification, the default value is NO.

Skip field in file content conversion (file adapter)

hy guys,
I have a log file and want to convert it into xml. that works fine.
the problem is: can I skip some fields that I do not need in the xml with file content conversion
the fields I want to skip are the same in every record of the log file.
thanks.

Ralf,
You can only ignore lines in the begiining of the file using Document Offset option.
If you have the unwanted field in the end of the record and you are in SPS12 (PI 7.0), you can use the option additionalLasstFields in FCC parameters. have a look into the blog /people/sukumar.natarajan/blog/2007/06/12/content-conversion-in-sender-file-adapter--2-new-useful-parameters
Easier, is to ignore those fields in mapping.
Also, you can try to remove those fields using a shell script which can be called from the File adapter.

Please guide me how to achive this using File Content conversion

Hi Krishna,
In case if H1 and H2 is your record type or line type then to ignore line for this type... just do not handle "keyFieldValue" in the content conversion for H1 and H2 record type.

File Content Conversion - Key Field Value

Hi Experts,
I am using File to Idoc scenario for my mapping. In the receiver Communication channel, I am using File Content Conversion. My scenario is as follows :
I have a recordset with Header and Line items with Key Field Indicator as 'H' and 'L'. In some cases, the value for this Key Field is coming in as something other than 'H' and 'L'. I need to throw an exception when this Key Field is not 'H' or 'L'.
In the 'Content Conversion' tab, my attributes are as:
Header_Structure.keyFieldValue = 'H' and Line_Structure.keyFieldValue = 'L'. Is there any more attributes that I need to add ?
Please advise. Thanks a lot.
Regards,
Freddy.

>>multiple key field values in FCC configuration i.e Line_Structure.keyFieldValue = H or L
AFAIK it is not possible but lets wait for other experts to comment on this...
>>Can keyFieldInStructure (add, ignore) parameter help me in this case ?
No. this parameter is only used when you want to include key filed in ur XML structure(add) or not (ignore)...

It's asking me to give the input to keyfieldname. But I dont have such field in my record. Ther's no common field . no field is repeating like record type or doc_type as in other cases.
So, Coud you please guide me to proceed with this.
Thanks in advance.....

File Content Conversion ( avoid fields in conversion)

Hi all
 An IDoc to File scenario , I am doing file content conversion in receiver File adapter.
my message type for file 2 HEADER each having its own substructure
Like 1header
 fieldA
 2header
 fieldC
 fieldD
I want the "1header and its 1 subelement not be converted in file content conversion" 
because its used for dynamic file name configuration, so i do'nt want it to be written on file.
Regards
Ashutosh.r

Rawat,
Yes I know you will get that error. That is the reason why I have told you to add another parameter fixedLengthTooShortHandling as Cut. So add one more parameter in your file receiver communicaion channel: Also I hope ASFD0101 is your strcuture not the field in the strcuture.
ASFD0101.fixedLengthTooShortHandling : Cut
Then I think it should work like a boom.

File Content Conversion for ignoring the entire line

Hi,
 I'm getting a CSV file from that i want to skip some records based on some validation.. for example:
I'm getting the following data :
EmpNo EmpName EmpDept
E101 ABC ABAP
E102 XYZ BW
E103 GFC XI
E104 BVM ABAP
E105 ASD BW
E106 YFC XI
SO, here where ever i'm getting EmpDept = XI .. i want to skip those all the records( that entire line i want to skip).. .. this can be possible through Message Mapping.. but i wnat to do this in the File Content Conversion.. how can we do this..
any helpful answers will appriciated..
Thanks
babu

Hi,
FCC is used to generate the XML structure so that XI can understood properly. You can not do any kind of validations or Skip the records based on Element value condition in FCC.
There are scenarios where you want to skip the lines that time you can use the below option in FCC but this is again not based on condition.
Under Document Offset, specify the number of lines that are to be ignored at the beginning of the document.
This enables you to skip comment lines or column names during processing. If you do not make an entry, the default value is zero lines.
The best way to do is use the UDF:
Write an UDF on target root node.
take input in one context:
input a= Emp Dept:
for(i=o,i<a.length;i++)
if(a{i}.equals("X"))
 result.addValue(SUPPRESS); this will supress the target root node if condition is equal to X
else
result.addValue("Constant"); this will generate the target root node.
Thnx

Key field values for file content conversion at sender communicationchannel

Hi all,
I am working on scenario File to Idoc.In this scenario at the sender side we configure the file content conversion for .CSV file.
In the flat file i am having more than one orders, XI will pick the file and creates a separate Idoc for each sales order at r/3.
We have similar fields "Order Item Number" both header and item.
If we got '00000' on the Header item then it should create a new idoc at the r/3 side other wise it will create line item.
Order item number will be 00000 for header but it will differ from order item to item.
source structure
Order Header
Order type
Sold-to-code
PO number
Order item number
Order date
AdresName1
AdresName2
Street and House number
Postal Code
City
Country Code
Filler
Order Item
Order type
Sold-to-code
PO number
Order item number
Order date
Product code
Order quantity
Item text
Filler
Now I have some questions....
I don't have standard filed values to give the key fileds at source structure.
I need to create the Idoc at r/3 system for each individual record.
Is it possible to create new idoc with out using the Key filed value?
If it is possible then how can i proceed with fcc?
please give me your valuable suggestions
Best Regards,
satya

Hi,
Just check the Content Conversion Parameters- Recordset Structure.
If you have filled in this parameter with
Header,1,Item,1
then change it to
Header,1,Item,3

Duplicate field names in File content conversion

Hi,
I need some details for csv to xml file conversion.I have configured the file content conversion adapter for these conversions.In source CSV file we will receive below details in single line.
0020000001000 0020000002000 0020000003000 0020000004000
Now i can successfully generate
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:MT_GLMast_out xmlns:ns="http://sap.com/PI/GLMast">
- <GLMasterData>
- <GLMAST>
<Customer1>0020000201000</Customer1>
<Customer2>0020000200000</Customer2>
<Customer3>0020000199000</Customer3>
<Customer4>0020000198000</Customer4>
</GLMAST>
</GLMasterData>
</ns:MT_GLMast_out>
with following parameters
GLMAST.fieldSeparator ,
GLMAST.fieldNames Customer1,Customer2,Customer3,Customer4
GLMAST.endSeparator 'nl'
Now the issue is customer wants to send 3000 customer number in single file.How to maintain the parameter to duplicate filednames just customer instead of customer1,customer2,customer3 etc...
<Customer>0020000201000</Customer>
<Customer>0020000200000</Customer>
<Customer>0020000199000</Customer>
<Customer>0020000198000</Customer>
This can be done if customer sends file like one customer number in one line.please help me how to process multiple customer number in single file separated with comma.
Thanks,
Vijay

For this what you can do is, create the source and target data types as shown below
Source Data Type
<DTO_Customer>
<Records> 0..unbounded
 <Customers> </Customers>0..1
</Records>
</DTO_Customer>
Target Data Type
<DTI_Customer>
<Records> 0..1
 <Customer> </Customer> 0..unbounded
</Records>
</DTI_Customer>
Now since your data will come in a single string therefore do the FCC in sender channel as shown below
Records.fieldNames = Customers
Records.fieldSeparator = 'nl'
ignoreRecordsetName = true
So by doing this you will get the data into XI mapping in as single string. Now you need to write an UDF which will split this string into individual customers based on your delimiter in the string.
Now map the output of this UDF to <Customer> field.
You may need to do some other small fixes accordingly.
I hope this will solve your problem.

Complex file content conversion in case of CSV file

Hi Friends,
What you see below is generated from Excel i.e excel file saved as CSV file. This file i need to map in XI.
Problem is i have to take only the data and not the header part.
for e.g in this particular line
Employee ID          :,,E00315
I need only E0315 and not the header value. Similarly i have to find some solution to map all the required data.
Please suggest me how to use file content conversion in such scenarios.
Solution is required on top priority. Points will be immdly rewarded.
Thanks & Regards

If I don't give these parameters then channel will give me errors.I don't know what other parameter to give to create a file.
I had tried the same thing with the following and it worked
Document Name - SampleMessageType

Substr.processFieldNames fromConfiguration
Substr.keyFieldValue 01
Substr.lastFieldsOptional YES
But the problem here is my mapping has the Header,Item and Trailer as the structure names but he XML created here will be like
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

</Substr>
- <Substr>
<RecordType>03</RecordType>
<RecordLength>22 1</RecordLength>
</Substr>
</Recordset>
</ns:SampleMessageType>
In this case my mapping fails

File Content Conversion - Error in keyfield Value

Hello experts,
I am doing file content conversion for a file to file scenario. The input file is a csv file which is converted to xml using the file content conversion. The key field of input file is used for implementing conversion.
While testing the FCC, I noticed that if the keyfield value is wrong for a record in the file, the record is ignored altogether without throwing any errors or warnings. Is there any way to notify if any records have been ignored as a result of incorrect keyfield value??
Thanks in advance!
RR

There seems to be NO way to handle it in FCC.

Need Help in Sender File Content Conversion

Hi All,
I request your expert advice on Sender File content Conversion. I need to process the below pasted file. I was able to achieve this by keeping a offset of 6 in Sender PI File Adapter (PI 7.1) to ignore first 6 lines and used a Unix script to remove last line"END OF REPORT".
Now my new requirement is I need to capture the date "DECEMBER 2009" from line 3. How can I do this. I have set offset as 6 so Adapter will start processing from line 7. If I don't set offset Interface fails. Please suggest. Thank you.
