Mapping a flat file to the iDoc OILLDD

Hi.
I have a file with this structure after I got it from the fileadapter.:
B Dataxxxxxxxxx
C Datayyyyyy
D Datazzzzzz
D Datazzzzzz
C Datayyyyyy
C Datayyyyyy
D Datazzzzzz
C Datayyyyyy
C Datayyyyyy
E Dataxxxxxxxxx
B
E
B
E
etc.
I want to map this structure to the Idoc OILLDD which have this structure.:
OILLDD01
 IDOC
 E1OILT1
 E1OILT2
 E1OILT3
 E1OILT4
each B-Recor shall produce a new iDoc.
each C-Record shall make an E1OILT1-segment
each D-Record shall make an E1OILT3-segment(if the D-record exist)
My problem is.:
How can I make an new iDoc for each B-Records in the file.
I got the file tthrough the filadapter.
Hope someone can help me.
Thanks.

The file from the file adapter have to be parsed using the File Content Conversion.
Now this converted XML will have the fields with value "A", "B","C" etc.
This can be then mapped according to ur requirements. U need to export the IDOC as XSD , change the occurrence and then reimport it in the external definitions.

Creating a flat file in the IDOC format

Hi everybody,
Need help.....urgently. Can somebody please tell me how to create a flat file in the IDOC format? I am creating a bill of lading/Documentary payments (EDI 858) and can't figure out a way to write the data generate through the report in a flat file in IDOC format. My deadline is right around the corner and I need help.
Thanks,
M

Hi Minal,
I still don't understand your question.
So, you have a report which selects data and puts it into an internal table. This part looks fine.
You want to create a flat file? Ok, to create a flat file on the application server then use the commands OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER, and CLOSE DATASET. To create a flat file on the presentation server then use the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD (or the GUI class, I forgets its name for the moment).
In both cases you should build up an internal table which has the exact structure required for your (EDIFACT?) EDI message, and then use the appropriate method to write the file.
If the following steps are manual then there is nothing more for you to do.
I don't see any need to use Idoc technology, or make any reference to it in your solution.
I hope that helps. If not, please be more specific when asking your questions.

What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the S

Hi All,
We are BW 7.01 (EHP 1, Service Pack Level 7).
As part of our BW project scope for our current release, we will be developing certain reports in BW, and for certain reports, the existing legacy reporting system based out of MS Access and the old version of Business Objects Release 2 would be used, with the needed data supplied from the BW system.
What is the best way to export the data out of BW into a flat file on the Server on regular intervals using a process chain?
Thanks in advance,
- Shashi

Hello Shashi,
some comments:
1) An "open hub license" is required for all processes that extract data from BW to a non-SAP system (including APD). Please check with your SAP Account Executive for details.
2) The limitation of 16 key fields is only valid when using open hub for extracting to a DB table. There's no such limitation when writing files.
3) Open hub is the recommended solution since it's the easiest to implement, no programming is required, and you don't have to worry much about scaling with higher data volumes (APD and CRM BAPI are quite different in all of these aspects).
For completeness, here's the most recent documentation which also lists other options:

How to read a flat file from the batch

Hi,
We have a requirement to read a flat file in the custom java batch in ETM2.2. We have the file at a specific location.
can some one let me know what are the various options, we have to read a flat file.
Thanks,

Is it referring to some "Process X" batch?
And why MPL/XAI with or without Configuration Tools should not be used to do this and a custom Java batch is required?

Flat file to multiple IDOCs

Hi experts,
I have a bit of a problem here wit a flat file to IDOC interface.
My input CSV file structure (shortened) is as follows -
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:POINBOUND_MT xmlns:ns0="urn:xx:xi:dwn:xx:pf:xxx:poinbound:100">
 <Record>
 <Row>
 <PO_HEADER_ID/>
 <TYPE_LOOKUP_CODE/>
 <LINE_NUM/>
 <AMOUNT_LIMIT/>
 </Row>
 </Record>
</ns0:POINBOUND_MT>
the target side is an idoc - PORDCR1.PORDCR102.
in the input file, for each row the PO_HEADER_ID field will have repeated values. the structure for eg.-
PO_HEADER_ID < other fields> < otherfields> ...
12345 <other fields>..<.. >
12345 <other fields>..<..>
12345 <other fields>..<..>
56789 <other fields>..<..>
56789 <other fields>..<..>
Now i need two idocs ( 2 distinct header values) on target side - the 1st idoc will have first 3 line items and 2nd idoc will have the last 2 line items. have already edited the IDOC in xsd format to make it unbounded.
Problem - i am able to create two idocs by handling contexts(splitbyvalue and a UDF), but with the line items its not working i.e. the first idoc gets the 3 line items created but the 2nd idoc does not have any!
my mapping for line items is -
PO_HEADER_ID <-> splitbyvalue(value changed) <-> count <---> UDF (for result.addvalue using count) <-----> lDOC LINE_ITEM node.
This logic does not work incase i need to create more than one idoc on the target side, it only works for the first idoc..so wat can i do??
Plz help.
thnx in advance!
Raju.

Different formats of the flat file for the same target

In our deployment, we use plugin code to extract the csv files in the required format. The customers are on same version of datamart, but they are on different versions of source database - from 3.x to 4.5 depending on which version of application they are using. In 4.0, we introduced a new column email in the user table in the source database. Accordingly, plugin will add the field in the csv file. But not all the customers will get the upgraded version of plugin at the same time. So ETL code needs to decide which data flow to process depending on the format of the csv file to load data to the same target table. I made the email field in the target table nullable but it still expects the same format of the csv file with delimiter for null value.
Need help to achieve this. Can I read the structure of the flat file in DS or get the count of delimiters so that I can use a conditional to use different data flow based on the format of the flat files.
Can I make the email column in the flat file optional?
Thanks much in advance.

You can add an email column that maps to null in a query transform for the source that does not contain this column.
Or else you can define two different file formats that map to the same file. One with the column and one without

MAPPING USING FLAT FILE SOURCE MODULE

I created a mapping using a flat file as source and a dimension as target, I've already configure both modules and their locations.
When I try to deploy this mapping in the deploy manager, it generates the script for the control file and when I hit the deploy button it says that the deploy was succesfull, but I really don�t know what it did.
Does it put the file in my target schema?, what do I suposs to do next?

Hi,
So,i don't have to manually run the sql loader from the command prompt???
All i have to do is Execute the map normally from the deployment manager and it will load the .ctl file itself.Ok great,i did so but i got the following error:
Starting Execution BM_DEBIT_CARDS_DAT_MAP
Starting Task BM_DEBIT_CARDS_DAT_MAP

So are there any permissions i should grant or what?

OWB Mapping with Flat file as a Target.

Hi all,
we have created a mapping in OWB where we have source as a table.and the target is a flat file.
we have created a file module and we have given the local system path for the file.
when we deploy and execute the mapping we get the error
"Invalid Path for target file, check UTL_FILE_DIR database parameter"
where do we have to specify the path?
Can any one please help in this reg.
Thanks in advance.

The UTL_FILE_DIR is set in your init.ora file for your Oracle DB.
init.ora parameter doc: http://www.ss64.com/orasyntax/initora.html
In order to apply the change, you'll need to restart the DB too.

FM to create a flat file in given IDOC type format

Hi,
I need to create a flat file having IDOC format.
I have data in some other source file.
Which function module can be used for the same?
Could you pls provide some sample code?
Appreciate the help.
Thanks.
-Shreyas

My Exact requirement is:
I have some data in a source file.
Now I want to create a flat file while which should be in a standard IDOC format(WMMBID02) so that I can process it later using IDOC processing say EDI_DATA_INCOMING or any appropriate FM which will process IDOC later.
I dont want IDOC to be created in the system right now. I just need to reformat my source file into a standard IDOC format flat file.
