Mapping of multiple segments of Idoc HRMD_A06 to flat file

Hi Experts,
           I am doing an Idoc to file scenario. Idoc i am using is HRMD_A06, which is having around 38 segments, contains the hiring action details of multilpe employees (Infotypes 0000,0001,0002,0003,0302,1001).
          When i have send the idoc , I am getting the file in the destination path, but having only one line which is having the the details of first employee.
          As the segments are repeating my mapping is not proper. Can anyone please help me with some details for mapping Idoc to file, when the segments repeats in a single idoc.
         Please also give me the details regarding the destination message interface.

Its very simple to do some changes in your existing mapping and some occurance changes.
Verify that if your file message structure has 0..Unbounded Occurance.
Use 0..Unbounded and map accordingly to target structure with 0...unbounded..
and test with sample xml in message mapping with multiple idocs data and see whther u get multiple records in target
Also if you need each sengment on new line with FCC then refer below links

Idoc data in flat file structure

Dear Experts,
We have idoc data in flat file structure. We need to fetch it using ftp and map it to an idoc.
please tell me how to proceed .
Thanks,
Aju

Hi,
For flat file you need to use the File content conversion parameters.
Refer the blog,

Facing Problem in IDOC to EDI FLAT File Scenario

Hi,
I am working on a scenario IDOC to EDI FLAT File. For this I have used ABAP mapping.
The problem i am facing is that the EDI FILE contains the segment name as E1EDK01 for eg. while I need the name as per the latest segment definiton released. I have also tried this using File port and it gives the required segment names in file. But we dont have to use File ports. Please suggest me if something is missing in PI Abap stack ?? Why I am not getting the segments name as per latest segment definition mainatined in R3.
Thanks
Neha

Hi Neha,
Please check the segment name in sxmb_moni. Is this showing new value or the old value?
If SXMB_MONI shows old value then the source SAP (R/3) system which is sending the idoc may not have released the segment after changing the name. You need to ensure that the idoc segment has been released properly. Then re-import the iodc into PI server again. Finally delete entry of the iodc structure in idx2 transaction, no need to re-import the idoc structute again in idx2, since once you run the scenario the metadata automatically gets imported.

What are the advantages of idoc compare to flat file. how data is secure

what are the advantages of idoc compare to flat file. how data is secure in idocs compare to flat file

Hi Ramana,
In simple words, Main advantage with idoc over flat file is security....
I will explain you some scenario here U got a flat file with all the data...Now u r having the flat file if you want u can modify the data in it, or somehow any one can modify the data in it if they were able to access this file. That means u maintained the file in the presentation server
One level of higher security to the above level is maintaining the flat file in application server, at point also even though lot of people r not having the access to that file, super user who is having the access may modify the data or delete the data from it rite....
so in both of those levels u don't have 100% security...
So there come to the picture of idocs, Idocs simply data carriers, those r generated by a program but not manually...data will be divided into number of segments based upon ur program. So manually its not so easy to modify the data in these idocs. If any changes to be made in the data then u have to modify the data in the application and then u have to update the idoc or you have to generate the new idoc with that corresponding data. so in this case not even super user can manipulate the data directly in the idoc....
I think u got my point what I mean to say.....
If you find it useful mark the points

IDoc as a flat file...

I want to read a flat file that is an IDoc and post it as a XML after necessary conversion...So i wanted to know what are the feasible ways to read the flat file thats an IDoc?

Your flat file is of fixed lenght format or tab delimited I believe. Get the flat file data into an internal table. Study the IDOC structure in transaction WE30. & according populate the idoc segemnts from the internal table value..
For ABAP to XML conversion..Create XSLT & the extraction program..
Create XSLT:
In transaction SE80 browse menu Workbench -> Edit Object. In the popup window enter XSLT Program name (e.g. ZXSLT) and click on create button.
Enter the following code into the editor..
<xsl:transform version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
<!xsl:output encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="D2CXML">

Creation of multiple Records in the file as per multiple segments in IDOC

Hi SapAll.
i have got a requirement to create a multiple records in a file based on multiple segments at sending Idoc in a File To Idoc Interface.
the Scenario is the reciever message type is mapped with fields of 3 segments in sending IDOC.
SEG01 1.....1(PARENT SEGMENT)
SEG02 0...999999(CHILD SEGMENT)
SEG03 0...9999999(CHILD SEGMENT)
in an instance where if the SEG01 exists for one time and SEG02 exists for 2 times and Seg03 Exists for 2 times PI is creating the file with 2 records in it but
when if the SEG01 exists for one time and SEG02 exists for 2 times and Seg03 Exists for 1 time it is raising the error in message mapping where it is supposed to create 2 records in a file with empty values in the fields (mapping with seg03) segment.
can anybody help me in this.
regards.
Varma

you can create a UDF after you validate if the count match. if match you create the message if not, call de UDF.
this UDF should receive two parameters -->Queue SEG2 and queue of SEG3.
then you should loop by the count of SEG2. if you find a Supress Value in the queue of SEG3 add a "" to result. for example.
for(i=0;i<=SEG2.count;i++){
If SEG3.equals(ResultList.SUPPRESS) {
result.addValue(" ");
}else{result.addValue(SEG3);
the result of UDF is a queue which should map to target field directly coz it has context changes
I think that is what you are needing. if no let me know.

Multiple idocs from single flat file

Hi All
I want to send data from a flat file to SAP(file to idoc)
My flat file structure is
id,name,number,city
2,R1,234,SD
2,R2,457,MD
3,R4,789,HG
3,R6,235.HG
The Field 'id' will change..after every change in 'id' ,seperate idoc should be created.
I have checked the following thread.
Re: Content conversion for seperate idoc
In the above thread ,it is asked to map v.no with remove context and use SPLIT BY VALUE on value change then do the mapping accordingly ,you can create 3 idocs for the same.
I'm confused about how to do these mappings.
Please explain the mapping in detail.
Please help
Regards
Reema

if your source data type is like
MT_Source
    Record           0-unbounded
       id                    ----1
       name              -----1
       number           -----1
       city               -------1
then in the sender file communication channel you have to specify file content conversion parameters as
Parameter name               parametervalue
Document Name                 MT_Source
Recordset Structure           Record,*
choose + to add more parameters
Name                                  Value
Record.fieldSeparator                      ,
Record.fieldNames                        id,name,number,city
Record.endSeparator                      'nl'
then do the maping
as
id ---->removeContext---->SplitByValue(Value change)---->Target Idoc
map according to your requirement for other fields

Proxy to File scenario - IDOC as an flat file

Hi,
I am working on ABAP Sender Proxy to File scenario. The target structure in the message mapping is SHPMNT05 IDOC and the output of the file needs to be in the text format and then the file will be send to an EDI subsystem.
Currently, EDI subsystem gets the IDOC from ERP system as a flat file and expects the similar kind of file from XI system
The requirement is to have all the fields of the IDOC in the target file. If data does not exist for a particular field, then there should be a space for that field in the text file.
I would like to know if there is any other standard way of executing this scenario apart from using File Content conversion. In case if we have to use FCC, how difficult it would to be implementing the scenario. Please note that the output file needs all the fields of IDOC in it.
Regards,
Sakthi
Edited by: Sakthi on Sep 26, 2008 11:24 AM

Hello Sakthi,
By coding in proxy populate the idoc structure if it is difficult to handle thru Content conversion parameters then create an intermediate structure and populate that structure by concatenating the fields from idoc segments. If the fields are not having the values then add blank spaces as per length of the field.
You can configure the file channel and content converison parameters for the intermediate structure.
Hope it will helps to you.
Cheers

Idoc Structure From Flat FIle

Hi,
I have two queries.
1.I need to import idoc structure from excel file not from sap, is it possible ?
2 what are the detalied steps to implement following SAP note for getting processed file name at runtime.
Thanks & Regards
Tuhin
Symptom
You want to access the name of a file sent through a File Adapter Sender channel from a custom developed XI module.
Other terms
XI 3.0, XI30, File Adapter, Module Processor, Module Development, Modules
Reason and Prerequisites
The functionality described in this note requires SP 9 or higher of the component XI ADAPTER FRAMEWORK CORE 3.0.
Solution
The File Adapter passes the name of the processed file to the module processor. This information is available in a Hashtable object accessible as as supplemental module data under the name "module.parameters" within the module's 'process' method.
For further information, please take a look at the example code below:
public ModuleData process(ModuleContext mc, ModuleData md) throws
ModuleException
Hashtable mp = (Hashtable)
 md.getSupplementalData("module.parameters");
String fileName = null;
if (mp != null)
 fileName = (String) mp.get("FileName");

Hi Tuhin,

1. .I need to import idoc structure from excel file not from sap, is it possible ?
Yes and No; If the structure in the Excel sheet is defined in XSD format (XML schema) then it should be possible to import it assuming you are using XI 3.0. In 2.0 this is not possible.
Not sure if in XI 3.0 you are allowed to import Excel files straight forward into XI.
2 what are the detalied steps to implement following SAP note for getting processed file name at runtime.
I'm not quite sure but this looks to me like you have to implement this within a Java custom function/mapping...
The data (in this case the filename) is encapsulated in a Hashtable object available during runtime.
Cheers,
Rob.

IDOC to email (flat file attachment) scenarion

Hello everybody,
I'm working with XI 3.0
I have a scenario IDOC - XI - flat file, but the file need be sent by email and not by FTP.
Using normal configuration of email communication Channel , i notify is not possible sent a flat file, but only XML.
So i decided to devide interface in 2 step.
1- IDOC - XI - FTP for create the file
2- FTP - XI - EMAIL for send file to destination as a email attachment.
this is a correct approach?
IT's possible take a file from a FTP server and send by email as an attachment (without any mapping)?
There is an document example?
thanks in advance
Alex

Hi,
its possible in one scenario as well,
one of following example will help you have attachments.
http://www.riyaz.net/sap/xipi-sending-emails-using-xi-mail-adapter/83/
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/DynamicEmailAttachmentnameforReceivedMails
Besides these you also need to use module adapter.
use MessageTransformBean for content conversion.
use link - http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/24/4cad3baabd4737bab64d0201bc0c6c/frameset.htm
Also it is possible that you may have to use another module as payloadswapbean.
But first 2 suggestion will work.

IDOC creation from flat file.

Hello Friends.
I need to create a custom program for posting goods receipts for a purchase order.
I think a custom program needed to achieve this task because i need to do mappings prior to create an IDOC. Now using a flat file what are the function modules or steps involved. can any one of you able to help me on this.
Thanks

Sorry, I'm trying to remember the name of the function module I used....I had a similar situation...I had a flat file which I processed and constructed an IDOC which I then saved as an incoming IDOC using the FM.... Because we had our settings (standard SAP process code, standard SAP FM IDOC processor, etc.) set to automatically fire off the IDOC processing, the result was that I read the file, saved the IDOC and SAP then immediately grabbed and posted the IDOC. I will do a little search for the FM I used to create the IDOC in my own system and get back to you if you think that would be helpful. Sorry for my memory lapse....

Problem Experts OWB 10gR2 - Mapping with OMB - Give a name to the flat file

I'm trying to create a mapping in OWB by using the Experts (OMB),
where the data source is a database table and the target is a flat file (to transform a table to a flat file).
The tasks of my Experts :
This task create a mapping, and add a existing table on it.
     OMBCC '$thepath'
     catch {OMBDROP MAPPING 'M1'}
     OMBCREATE MAPPING 'M1'
     OMBALTER MAPPING 'M1' \
     ADD $INITIAL_LAUNCH_CONTEXT_TYPE OPERATOR '$thetable' \
     BOUND TO $INITIAL_LAUNCH_CONTEXT_TYPE \ '$INITIAL_LAUNCH_CONTEXT' \
This task change the context and create a flat file
     OMBCC '/PRJ_LABO_PHARMA/SRC_FILE'
     catch {OMBDROP FLAT_FILE 'NEW_FILE'}
     OMBCREATE FLAT_FILE 'NEW_FILE' \
     SET PROPERTIES (DATA_FILE_NAME) VALUES('fichier_genere.txt')
This task add the flat file to the mapping, and create a connection between the source (table) and the target (flat file)
     OMBCC '/PRJ_LABO_PHARMA/MOD_SRC_LABO'
     OMBALTER MAPPING 'M1' \
     ADD FLAT_FILE OPERATOR 'NEW_FILE'\
     BOUND TO FLAT_FILE '/PRJ_LABO_PHARMA/SRC_FILE/NEW_FILE' \
     OMBALTER MAPPING 'M1' \
     ADD CONNECTION FROM GROUP 'INOUTGRP1' OF OPERATOR '$thetable' \
     TO GROUP 'NEW_FILE' OF OPERATOR 'NEW_FILE' COPY ALL
This task update the flat file structure
     OMBRECONCILE MAPPING 'M1' OPERATOR 'NEW_FILE' \
     TO FLAT_FILE '/PRJ_LABO_PHARMA/SRC_FILE/NEW_FILE' \
     USE (RECONCILE_STRATEGY 'REPLACE', MATCHING_STRATEGY 'MATCH_BY_OBJECT_ID')
Then I have a task which execute this mapping.
Everything is good, but during the execution I have a error VLD-2357 : The target file's name is not indicated for the file NEW_FILE.
I don't know how to give a name to the flat file in OMB.
Help me please.
Best regards
Samy

Just like if you built this in the UI where you would have to configure the flat file operator and define a target data file name and possibly the location these properties should be set in scripting.
Set the property TARGET_DATA_FILE_NAME to the name of the data file.
Something like....
OMBALTER MAPPING 'M1' \
MODIFY FLAT_FILE OPERATOR 'NEW_FILE' SET PROPERTIES (TARGET_DATA_FILE_NAME) VALUES ('my_datafile.csv')
