Mapping Error - Dump source message to file adapter comm channel

Hi
Does anyone know of a way to dump the source message to a file adapter comm channel if - and only if - the message fails during mapping. For example, we receive a message from a trading partner that lacks an element that is mandatory during the mapping. When the mapping fails, the source message is sent - as is - to a file adapter comm channel.
I don't need anything more than the source message i.e. no need for any errors etc... to be included.
The kicker.. I would like to do this without using BPM if at all possible.
Any ideas greatly appreciated. Thx, Duncan

Hey Ram,
Go to Integration Directory and open the Receiver Determination for your scenario.
Check the configured receiver services. They are in a table-like area in the middle of the screen.
In this table of configured receiver services for that particular Sender Service/Interface, you should have the system that normally receives that message (your ERP or any other application system) and the service that contains the receiver file comm channel that will receive the message in case of error.
Check help.sap.com for help on condition editor on receiver determinations.
Now, the issue. You can only check whether a field exists, you can't check whether it doesn't exist (There's only a "EXIST" operator, and no negative operator). Thus, you can only do the following: always send messages to File, but you can avoid messages that dont have field from being sent to App System. Yeah, that sucks...
But don't fear, young padawan! There is a possible workaround. =D
In your message mapping, do the following for that particular field:
If field exists (check with Exist and IF standard functions) just bypass the field. Else, map the field with an impossible value (like string "$CREATED$"). Then, in your receiver determination, you will do the following conditions:
for App System: If field =/= $CREATED$
for File Receiver: If field = $CREATED$
Now, if the field doesnt exist, it will have value $CREATED$, thus the message will be sent to File and not to App System. If the field exists, the message will be sent to App and not to File.
Try that out.

Henrique.

Reg error in flat file to flat file scenario

Hi techies,
Iam just starting working with XI scenarios.
In base flat file to flat file scenario which is mentioned in wiki.sdn
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/FLATFILETOFLATFILE
I had completed entire scenario. After generating sender file. Iam getting this error in runtime work bench.
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'CONTACTS.EMP.fieldFixedLengths' or 'CONTACTS.EMP.fieldSeparator' is missing
Please suggest how to resolve this error.
Thanks in advance,
Regards,
Kiran

Hi,
From your error description,
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'CONTACTS.EMP.fieldFixedLengths' or 'CONTACTS.EMP.fieldSeparator' is missing
it is clear that you have missed out either or both the 2 parameters in receiver file adapter content conversion, namely EMP.fieldFixedLengths and EMP.fieldSeparator.
From the example that you followed, use the following values for the 2 parameteres is the output file is a comma separated file:
EMP.fieldFixedLengths: 8,10,10
EMP.fieldSeparator: ,
I have assumed that the lengths of the fields NAME,ADD,MOBILE are 8,10 and 10 respectively. Change them according to your requirement.
Use any other value in place of comma(,) in EMP.fieldSeparator according to the requirement.
Hope it helps you buddy!!!
Thanks

XI Flat File to JDBC Mapping Error

Hi,
I have been trying to insert some records from a flat file into a sybase database using the FILE adapter (with file content conversion) as a sender and the JDBC adapter as a reciever, but I keep getting mapping errors like:
RuntimeException during appliction Java mapping com/sap/xi/tf/_mm_hh_file__hh_sybase_nombres_</Trace>
<Trace level="1" type="T">com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException: RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformation: Cannot produce target element /ns0:mt_hh_sybase_nombres/STATEMENTNAME. Check xml instance is valid for source xsd and target-field mapping fulfills requirements of target xsd at com.sap.aii.mappingtool.tf3.AMappingProgram.start
I have read through some blogs and I still can't figure out what is wrong.
Flat pipe separated file:
Hans|Robert|Hahn|Gallegos
Karina|Maria|Cordoba|Gutierrez
Datatype for this file looks like this:
   Record                         1
      Row                          1...Unbounded
         Nombre                  1
         SegundoNombre     1
         ApPaterno              1
         ApMaterno             1
Because the FILE adapter uses Content conversion, the file translates to:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<ns:hh_test xmlns:ns="http://me.com">
<Record>
     <Row>
      <Nombre>Hans</Nombre>
        <SegundoNombre>Robert</SegundoNombre>
        <ApPaterno>Hahn</ApPaterno>
        <ApMaterno>Gallegos</ApMaterno>
     </Row>
     <Row>
       <Nombre>Karina</Nombre>
       <SegundoNombre>Maria</SegundoNombre>
       <ApPaterno>Cordoba</ApPaterno>
       <ApMaterno>Gutierrez</ApMaterno>
     </Row>
    </Record>
</ns:hh_test>
My database table looks like this:
Nombres
ApPaterno
ApMaterno
Datatype for this table looks like this:
STATEMENTNAME    1..Unbounded
nombres                  1
    action                    optional
    TABLE                  1
    access                  1
      Nombres             1
      ApPaterno           1
      ApMaterno           1
MAPPINGS as follows:
Record ------> no mapping
Row ------> STATEMENTNAME
Constant ------> action
Constant ------> TABLE
Nombre + SegundoNombre ------> Nombres
ApPaterno ----> ApPaterno
ApMaterno ----> ApMaterno
How do I do the mapping ? I've been through a lot of blogs and threads but I haven't found an example like this, a flat pipe separeted multiline file with records to be inserted in a database.

        Hans Hahn

Hans,
The error shows you have an error in mapping. Also you have mapped constant for ACTION and TABLE. Here you have to hardcode the value INSERT or UPDATE etc for ACTION and the name of the table for TABLE.
Check this weblog where he has mentioned everything what you are looking for:
/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/06/01/file-to-jdbc-adapter-using-sap-xi-30
Also once when you are done with mapping try to execute it in the test tab of mapping editor.

File Sender Scenario - Mapping error message

Hi All
Scenario
I am trying to develop a test scenario where a record is read from the file and sent to R/3 using RFC (Bapi)
So i believe this will involve a file adapter as sender and a RFC adapter as receiver, I have configured data types, message types, message mapping, interface mappings, sender determination, receiver determination etc.
Problem
When i put the text file in the polling directory the file is read, but there is an error,
On checking Processed XML message in SXMB_MONI I see that the following steps listed
1 - Inbound message (CENTRAL)
2 - Receiver Determination
3 - Interface Determination
4 - Receiver Grouping
5 - Message Branch According to Receiver
6 - Request Message Mapping
7 - Request Message Mapping
Step 1 - 6 does not show any error message, step 7 has an error with the following message
<SAP:Category>Application</SAP:Category>
<SAP:Code area="MAPPING">EXCEPTION_DURING_EXECUTE</SAP:Code>
<SAP:P1>com/sap/xi/tf/_MM_basic_paycreate_file_to_rfc_map~</SAP:P1>
<SAP:P2>com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException<;/SAP:P2>
<SAP:P3>Fatal Error: com.sap.engine.lib.xml.parser.Parser~</SAP:P3>
Additional Information
My Business System Commnication channel has a Sender File adapter, this file sender is configured to read from file system from a certain directory and message protocol is File Content Conversion.
In Content Conversion parameters input fieldname and input separator are configured (does anything else need to be configured in this section?)
My input file is of the structure aaa,bbb,ccc,ddd,eee,fff,ggg
My Data Type is of the structure
<data header>
     <aaa></aaa>
     <bbb></bbb>
     <ccc></ccc>
     <ddd></ddd>
     <branch1>
               <eee></eee>
     </branch1>
     <branch2>
               <fff></fff>
     </branch2>
     <branch3>
               <ggg></ggg>
     </branch3>
</data header>
Questions
First question is why is there 2 instance of Request message mapping showing up in the monitor? Isn't this supposed to show up only once?
Second question it appears that the problem is something to do with Mapping (Message Mapping) but i tried to test the message mapping manually using the data generated in the payload and it passes the mapping successfully.
Third question, how is the input flat file converted to the complex structure of data type (as mentioned in additional information above) is this done by the input.filedNames that assigns the corresponding values from flat file to the data type?
Fourth question - is there a way to run the process step by process (as a step through in other programming IDEs?) so the problem can be more easily identified?
Thanks
Anant

Hi All
I little update - it appears that some of the scenarios developed earlier that were working earlier are now also failing at the same process of mapping with this error message.
So i am suspecting that this is not a problem with the mappings in my scenarios but rather a some technical setting related to how XI invokes this class - com.sap.aii.utilxi.misc.api.BaseRuntimeException.
Does any one have any ideas what i can check to confirm this? Whether the problem is in the technical setting or the scenario configuration?
thanks

Flat File to Flat File scenario

Hi all,
I have a flat file to flat file scenario. I pick up a file in a specific format and produce a flat file in tab delimited format after some mapping.
Everything is ok. All the functionality is working perfectly. However, there is one small error. In case the source file is empty, there is an error message in SXMB_MONI (which is correct as there is no XML content) but I still need to generate an empty output file.
Is this possible ? Can I change something at the 'File Content Conversion' level ?
Any advise will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Freddy.

Hi Freddy,
>>>Problem while determining receivers using interface mapping: Error while determining root tag of XML: BOM / charset detection failed.
The charset of the XML cannot be determined. That is written clearly in the message.
Is your XML belongs to UTF-16 or UTF-32? Then it needs a BOM which is missing.
Have a look at below link.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte-order_mark
Check, if there is an XML header and which charset is mentioned.

Error 1 when loading flat file in BW 7.0

Hi,
The flat file structure is same as the transfer structure. Its a csv file and i also checked about the delimiters and stuff.The flat is not open and it is closed while i am loading it. The same file gets loaded if i try in another laptop with my id.If i use my colleague's id on my system also...it doest work...so, the basic problem is with my laptop. I know its nor related to type of data or transfer structure. Its some settings on my laptop which got changed automatically. If i install some other softwares like mozilla firefox or yahoo msg-will that create a problem? I am not at all understanding why its like this. Please help.The error msgs i get when i try to load the flat file -
Error 1 when loading external data
Diagnosis
Error number 1 occurred when loading external data:
1. Error when reading the file (access rights, file name, ...)
2. File size or number of records does not correspond to the data in the control file
3. Error when generating the IDoc
4. File contains invalid data (errors with an arithmetic operation or data conversion)
Procedure
Check whether you have the required access rights and whether the data in the control file is correct (file names, record length, number of records, ...). Correct the data in the control file if necessary and check the data file for invalid data (values of the wrong type, values in the wrong format for conversion exit,...). Check whether the file has headers that have not been specified.
Error when opening the data file C:\vikki1.csv (origin C)
Message no.
Diagnosis
File C:\ vikki1.csv (origin C) could not be opened.
Origin:
A : Application server
C : Client workstation
Procedure
Check whether the file entered exists and is not been used by other applications.

Hi! Vikki,
Error 1 means your flat file is open while uploading the data..
your flat file should be closed while uploading data in BW.
that is why it is saying "Error when opening the file..".
first close that file n then upload..it will work.
rest of the things are ok!..
I hope this will help you.

Error while loading CSV Flat file

Hi,
I am getting the following errors while loading a flat file into the DataSource:
1. Error 'Unit CS is not created in language EN...' at conversion exit CONVERSION_EXIT_CUNIT_INPUT (field UNIT record 1, value CS)
2. Error 'The argument '9,018.00' cannot be interpreted as anumber' on assignment field /BIC/ZTVSA record 1 value 9,018.00
What can I do to correct this?
Thanks

I am taking the following (Headers) fields in this order in a CSV file :
0LOGSYS ,0MATERIAL,0UNIT,0BASE_UOM,0COMP_CODE,0PLANT,0FISCPER,0FISCVARNT,
0CURRENCY,0PRICE_TYPE,ZTVSAKF,ZVOTVSKF,0PRICE_CTRL,ZPRICE_STKF,0PRICE_BASE,
0VAL_CLASS,0CURTYPE,0VALUATION
I have added all these fields in the DataSource as well. T-Code CUNIT has CS as a Unit.
I deleted and recreated the DataSource and am getting this error now:
Error 'Unit CS is not created in language EN...' at conversion exit CONVERSION_EXIT_CUNIT_INPUT (field UNIT record 1, value CS)
Error 'The argument '1,398.00' cannot be interpreted asa number' on assignment field /BIC/ZTVSAKF record 1 value 1,398.00
Error 'The argument '8,10.00' cannot be interpreted as anumber' on assignment field /BIC/ZTVSKF record 1 value 8,10.00
Error 'Unit 0 is not created in language EN...' at conversion exit CONVERSION_EXIT_CUNIT_INPUT (field BASE_UOM record 1, value )
Error 'Unit CS is not created in language EN...' at conversion exit CONVERSION_EXIT_CUNIT_INPUT (field UNIT record 1, value CS)
Error 'The argument '5,50.00' cannot be interpreted as anumber' on assignment field /BIC/ZTVSAKF record 1 value 5,50.00
Does it matter what order the columns are in?

Flat File to Flat File Scenario using File Adapter

Hi Experts,
In my scenario, requirement is Flat File to Flat file through File Adapter in PI. At sender end, we would need to use Sender File Adapter (NFS) and receiver end we would need to use Receiver File Adapter (FTP). File would be coming as a encrypted format, and the file needs to be sent in encrypted format.
Any idea how to proceed with this requirement would be helpful.
Thanks and Regards
Soumya

Hi Soumya,
You need to choose the FTP in the "transport protocol" option. Then in the FTP connection parameters choose the option Connection Security and assign the value "FTPS for control and Data Connection". Then the "Command Order" will show up below that option and you could leave the default value itself. If you are using Public private key certificates of X.509 then you could choose the option "Use x.509 certificate for client authentication" and assign the values to the "keystore" and "certificate & private key" fields.
Note: To use the FTP with SSL you need to add the CA certificate to the TrustedCAs keystore view.

Vishnu.

Error : RuntimeException in Message-Mapping transformatio~
Thanks ,

Dear Syed Kumar
Based on the blog you are executing the scenario I guess. The scenario is clearly focusing on the picking up the files using the mask attribute in File Access Parameters.
As you mentioned clearly, that you are getting mapping error plz concentrate on how to rectify the mapping errors.
will guide to do so.
1. Go to SXMB_MONI and in the integration server and check for the message you are trying send.( I hope you did this)
2. As it is giving you mapping error, Double click onthe message Flag showing red.
3.Plz check the Payload XML content copy that content and paste in the message mapping Test section of IR.
4. Execute the Test. If you get the message at the receiver side there shouldn't be any error.
If you still get the error let me know.
Best of Luck
Reward Points If found use ful.

Do the Interface mapping test as well if you are successful in message mapping.

Mapping error in file(FCC) to rfc scenario

Hi,
i am trying to implement mapping in file (fcc) to rfc scenario. the source file is getting picked up, but the problem is arising during mapping. i am unable to generate the target structure. i am attaching mapping structure as follows
Source Structure                           Target Structure: RFC
storesales                                     -POSDW-CREATE_TRANSACTIONS_EXT
     recordset                                      it_transaction
       gmd_site_101                                 item
      gmd_site_102
      gmd_site_103
      gmd_site_104
here the recorset is mapped to item, and fields of subnode gmd_site_101 is mapped to fields of subnode item. similarly, for the other subnodes. but when testing with xml file, the target field is not getting generated. in FCC parameters, ignorerecordset name is set to "true".
any help would be very helpful..thanks in advance.
warm regards,
kartz

hi
You can test the data using payload from SXMB_MONI in message mapping test tool so as you can get to know the reason of failure.
It would be better if you paste the error you are getting over there.
Check if you have maintained the namespace in CC or not. it should be same maintained if you have kept namespace in message type.
Also check in FCC parameters you must have used ignoreRecordsetName = true

Mapping error in File to File Scenario.

In a file to file scenario some times sender communication channel picked the file, before the file is completely copied to the directory Though the poling intervals is 300 seconds. To my assumption, assume that the sender communication channel lastly polled on 10:10:10 and i am coping a file after 285 sec that is 10:14:55 and file size is 20 mb that takes 50 sec to copy. but the next sender communication channel poling is 10:15:10. here the file is partially copied but the communication channel picked the file and process. The scenarios throws mapping error because of in correct input file. This rarely accords but how to handle this. i want the cc to wait until the file is completely copied to the dir and then poll.

Hi ,
But there is some problem with system i guess. Adapter engine first load the whole file and then send it to Integration engine where after receiver and interface determination , mapping is excuted. So the fact that adapter picked up half of the file and tried to process does not seem correct.
Ideally this behaviour should not occurs.
If you are observing similar with all the adapter , you should also cross check with SAP support team.

Source of Flat File in a File scenario

Hey guys
i was just wondering wats the source of flat files which are used in File scenarios,i know it can come from anywhere but in a real world scenario,where do we usually get these files from(is it any server?)also if anyone of u has worked on any file scenario can u please tell me where exactly u were getting this file from.
all the scenarios i have worked with i waz just placing the files on FTP but i m pretty sure in a real world scenario,there should some central repository where all these flat files come from.
please tell me from ur real world experience where u were getting the file from.
you can e-mail me at [email protected]
thanx
ahmad

Hi,
The answer for this is , it depends . I mean it depends on the Project Requirements, Organization , Company Policy etc..
So some project may implement these file servers as a part of the SAP system itself.
But many are not .. Because as per security rules, etc, there will be separate FileServer outside the SAP Landscape , but will in the same system landscape. So XI/PI will communicate this directly via FTP connections . So this folder will act as a FileServer.
for a XI developer, generally these file location informations will be given. so you need to pick or drop the files over there
Hope this helps,
Regards,
Moorthy

Mapping Error- In IDoc to File scenario

Hi Experts,
Got the Mapping error for one interface (IDoc to file). After comparing with successful message found that the field value (TDLINE) is not availbale in first segment (E1EDT10) in idoc for this failed one.
Mapping is :
TDLINE -- Exists --- Creatif --- Receiver field(in the file)
But here due to the the empty value in first segment the message is failed in XI system, next segment values is not trasmitted to the recever end(maping is the same above). To overcome this issue please suggest the suitable mapping design in IR.
Regards
Mahesh

Hi,
After your CreateIf, use a "IfWithoutElse" by selecting the properties "Keep SUPPRESS Values". To do that, do a right click on IfWithoutElse, choose "Properties".
With this option, you will keep the fact that you have nothing in the source, and so the target context will have a "SUPPRESS" line. I have not THE solution, so do your own test.
If it's not enough, see also about the "mapWithDefault" (but that depends of your real rule).
Regards.
