Output Flatfile Conversion

Hi All,
       I am doing Flatfile to Flatfile scenario.My input format is like ID,Name,Address.I want to get the output which should be same like Input format but through mapping.I am using J2SE file Adapter in both sending and receiving side.I am getting output in Flatfile but with only one field that is "ID".I am not getting the remaining fields i.e., Name and Address in my output flatfile.
My input structure from SXMB_MONI is 
  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:MT_FCC1 xmlns:ns="namespace">
- <Recordset>
- <Data>
  <ID>100</ID>
  <Name>X</Name>
  <Address>Y</Address>
  </Data>
  </Recordset>
  </ns:MT_FCC1>
Content Conversion Parameters which i have specified at receiver side is
xml.recordsetStructure=Recordset,Data
xml.addHeaderLine=0
xml.fieldSeparator=,
xml.endSeparator='nl'
Can anyone suggest me what to do ASAP?
Thanks in Advance
Dinakar

Hi Dinakar,
U should use it like this
Recordset Structure :- Recordser,DATA
DATA.addHeaderLine=0
DATA.fieldSeparator=,
DATA.endSeparator='nl'
insted of
xml.addHeaderLine=0
xml.fieldSeparator=,
xml.endSeparator='nl'

  • EDI to customized (.csv) flatfile conversion

    Hi!
    I've tried to test my scenario of EDI to customized (.csv) flatfile conversion.
    I've encountered discrepancies on my output.
    Instead of one .csv file, i've produced many files, in which, one file consists of one line.

    Thank you!

    Hi,
    Thanks for the information.
    But, I believe, the one mentioned in the Blogs is converting csv file into xml?
    Is it ok if I configure my actual scenario for this flatfile conversion?
    3rd party -
    >   SAP XI  --->  File Directory
    3rd party will send an EDI message (D96A_SLSRPT) to SAP XI.
    SAP XI, then translate this EDI message into a customized format flatfile.
    The output from XI is XML flatfile.
    What happened is that when EDI message enters Seeburger, it splits the message depending on the number of UNH segments contained in the EDI.
    That's why, if it enter XI, it will be mapped per message splitted.
    The message will enter XI not as a one content message but a splitted message.
    I think, Comm channel is ok, the problem is on the splitting of the message.
    E.g. this is my EDI source message that will enter XI,
    UNA:.?

    This EDI message will enter Seeburger, and will be splitter depending on the number of UNH segments.
    then the splitted message will be translated into XML, then will be mapped on customized flatfile.
    Output is one UNH segment (one tag XML) will be converted into .csv flatfile.
    Thats why the output is many files because of the splitted message from Seeburger.
    Could you advise on what will be the configurations to be done so as Seeburger will not split the message?
    And the whole EDI message will enter XI as a whole?
    Thank you very much for your time.

    Hi,
    Please create a user defined function with the code as given below with two parameters (A)Element_Name and (B) Element_Length.
    (A) Element_Name: Pass the field that you want to append zeros to Element_Name by sending it through TRIM fucntion. Like for example if you are using the UDF for SALES. SALES->TRIM->Element_Name in UDF.
    (B) Element_Length: Pass the constant value with the expected length of the field. like if SALES is a field of 10 characters then send the constatn with value 10.
    StringBuffer sb= new StringBuffer();
    if (Element_Name.length() < 1)
    return Element_Name;
    else
    int len = Integer.parseInt(Element_Length);
    int tot=len-Element_Name.length();
    if(Element_Name.length()>=len)
    return Element_Name;
    else
    //if the Element_Name charAt index 0 is a character then return the number as it is.
    char firstChar;
    int firstNum = Element_Name.charAt(0);
    //int firstNum = Integer.parseInt(firstChar);
    //if (firstChar == '0' ) //Equals to number
    if (firstNum >= 48 && firstNum <=57)
    //for(int i=Element_Name.length();i<=len;i++)
    for(int i=0;i<=tot;i++)
    if(i==tot)
    sb.append(Element_Name);
    else
    sb.append("0");
    return sb.toString();
    else
    return Element_Name;
    This will result in the output with zeroes appended in the begin of the field. like if you have SALES as "1" and ELement_Lenght as "10" the output will be "0000000001"
    Thanks,

  • Flatfile conversion with output file has a NAMING CONVENTION

    Dear SAP experts,
    I need some advise regarding my scenario.
    I am converting a message into flatfile. (customized .csv)
    But, the output .csv flatfile must have a naming convention.
    E.g.    Globus_20071020   (Customer name_YearMonthDate)
    Can somebody give me ideas/inputs on what will I configure in File Receiver (FCC) in order to have an output file having a naming convention indicated above.
    Or do i need additional configurations?
    Please advise.
    Thank you very much in advance.
    Fred

    Hi,
    You could pass this kind of File name from mapping at runtime or
    You could use the variable substitutions to create the fiel neame as per naming convention as adding date .
    With reference to Variables youcould set file name as Globus_%payload.<Date>%
    Pass the value in date field of payload

  • EDI to Flatfile Conversion

    Hi all!
    I am new in SAP XI. And i am researching on how will I convert EDI (SLSRPT) to a flatfile. Can everybody advise me on how will I handle this?
    I can convert EDI to XML using Seeburger Adapter, and from XML, I will convert it to Flatfile. The conversion will take place in SAP XI. Can i use graphical mapping for this one?
    Kindly advise.
    Thank you!
    Fred

    Hi,
    For the same requirement you need to follow the below steps:
    1) First deploye the Std seeburger mapping provided by see burger on XI
    2) If you are using the AS2 adapter then you have to install the AS2 server on XI server.
    3) Once you install the std seeburger on SAP XI server you will see the AS2,X400,OFTPS,VAN adapter on XI ID.
    5) You need to call the std mapping in the adapter module which does the conversion from EDI to XML and XML to EDI.
    If you wanted to know more about seebuger and the configuration then refer the below breif into about seeburger and the reply to many of my threads.
    Seeburger adapters like OFTPS,AS2,X400 are used for B2B scenario where the file is coming through WAn network or mailbox. As XI dont have capability to convert the EDIFACT format file to XML the same work will be done by seeburger adapters.
    The SEEBURGER Business Integration Converter (BIC) is an any-to-any format converter, used to translate EDI data and legacy data formats into XML and vice versa. It can also be used for complex, high performance XML-to-XML mappings or to interface to existing JDBC data sources.
    Supported EDI formats include:
    • ANSI
    • EDIFACT
    • INHOUSE
    • IDOC
    • XML Schema
    • XML DTD
    • CSV
    • Delimited Data
    • positional data
    • SWIFT
    • EANCOM
    and many more.
    See for converting the EDI XML to EDI and XML-EDI you need to have a seeburger mapping program at the adapter module which does the conversion. For this module you need a BIC tool of seeburger which provides the different module program for EDI to XML and XML-EDI. This program needs to be deployed on XI and through adapter it has to be called for conversion.
    Refer this forum which is replied by me which talka about the configuration which need to be done for AS2 adapter. This is very helpful:

  • Input and Output Stream conversion

    I have problem. In my application I should change OutputStream to InputStream and vv. I try to explain it using easy example.
    I am creatin xml document and using XMLOutputter (I am using org.jdom parser) I could write it to file using FileOutputStream, but first I'd like to encrypt this file. For that reason I need InputStream. I write this file on disc, next i read this file, encrypt and write again and at last delete the unencrypted file. Could do It without writeing unencrypted file on disc? Maybe using only streams? Pleas help me, how to do it. Maybe I should convert OutputStream to InputStream.
    When I reading information from encrypted file I have the same problem - streams conversion.

    I wrote an article about how to convert an OutputStream to an InputStream. You can read the article at:
    http://ostermiller.org/convert_java_outputstream_inputstream.html
    It discusses three methods for conversion: byte arrays, piped streams, and circular buffers.

  • XI FlatFile conversion

    Hi all,
    i can convert very simple flat file to xml, but i don't know how set Content Conversion Parameters.
    Example: I have file with content aaaaaaaaaa nothing else
    Transport Protocol: NFS
    Message Protocol: File Content Conversion
    Document Name: DName
    Document Namespace: http://AC_flatfile.cz
    Document Offset: 0
    Recordset Name: RSname
    Recordset Namespace: http://AC_flatfile.cz
    Recordset Structure: NameA,*
    Recordset Sequence: Variable
    Recordsets per Message: *
    Key Field Name: *
    Key Field Type: String (CI)
    NameA.fieldFixedLengths: 10
    NameA.fieldFixedType: char
    NameA.fieldNames: NameA
    ... and file not processing and nothing information on SXMB_MONI.
    Do you know why?
    Have you some examples for set it?
    Best regards, Pavel Korinek

    HI Korinek,
      First you have to make a data type in such a manner that you have field names that can hold your values from file.Foe eg if you are sending "aaaa" it must be some field..
    The data type should be
    <datatypename>
    <RSname>
    <NameA>
    <field1>
    <field2>
    etc...
    so the mandatory filecontent parameters will
    NameA.fieldseperator
    NameA.endseperator
    NameA.fieldNames
    NameA.keyFieldValue
    This format should work.Your flat file was not getting picked up coz you have not mentioned the required  format.
    Also go through the link

  • Can the Iphone output the phone conversation to the docked speakers like it does the rinnger when it is docked?

    Can the Iphone output the conversation audio to the docking station like it does with the ringger audio?

    Return the darn thing!
    Why do you & we accept a phone that does not work 100%
    We should be discounted the non working percentage, or simply get a new working one.
    Would you accept a saucage with a rotten end, and hope they would treat it with enough chenichals to make it taste and look good?
    The problem seems to me a hardware problem, and may be poor assembly. Noticed that incoming calls on my first 4s when vibrator was on, made an extra vibrating noise - i.e. loose speaker, printboard or what do I know.
    This does not occur on the phone I purchased yesterday, waiting for the other at the repairshop.
    Does Telenor and Apple think I will accept the repaired brand new phone?
    NOT!

  • FlatFile Schema Change - Message not getting changed correctly.

    A biztalk orchestration uses a flatfile schema (with three nodes accountnumber, date, amount) to send the output in .csv format. The generated .csv file presents the data in trheee columns specific to the three nodes.
    I am trying to add an new fourth node (Description) to the flatfile schema but the generated .csv file is presenting all the data in single cell instead of displaying using four different columns. I am trying to figure out a solution.
    Appreciate any pointers. Thanks

    Output file shows the new node with data.
    I think somehow the pipeline componenet not accepting the new schema structure. Hence tried the following steps and the solution seems working now.
    1) Deleted the pipeline reference in dependent application, stopped the dependent application.
    2) Stopped, Delete and re-deployed current application.
    3) Dependent application's sendport is enabled with the flatfile pipeline
    3) re-started the host instances, and dependent, and current applications.
    Flatfile conversion works OK now.
    Disabling & reenabling pipeline solved it.
    Thanks

  • RGB CMYK PDF EXPORT.(colour conversion)  Keeping your colours vibrant and your blacks black.

    Ive been tearing my hair out for the best part of 14 hours trying to figure out how to keep the closest possible conversion for working with images(rgb in photoshop) right the way through a work flow until exporting to print (having used the image in Indesign).  Here is the process I have been trying to get right.
    1) working with RGB photo images in photoshop and converting them to CMYK (whilst holding on to as much colour as poss)
    2) Importing them to Indesign and retaining the correct colours while working with them)
    3) Exporting to high quality print and having all your colours stay 100% the same as you saw them within indesign.
    I believe I have the solution so I posted my settings below to see if its the best way of doing things and to help others who might be having the same problems.
    The problem
    The problem is that there are many different colour models/profiles (both in RGB and CMYK) and each program can effect how the next one handles and stores colour.  It can become frustrating knowing where to go in order to set the settings correctly  as the combination of things to consider can make it confusing.
    I understand many other people have similar problems and finding RGB blacks come out as grey.  CMYK spaces get converted from one type to another either from one program to the next or even as things move around one program (causing all sorts of wonderful,colour errors)  Plus you have imported colour profiles, working colour profiles and export profiles.  All of which can interact and effect each other) So getting it all consistent is key other wise colours change and get washed out.   Especially vibrant colours like greens and blues. they fade etc.
    Through sheer trial and error and perciverance I found a combination of settings that worked well for me.
    Since I am not an expert I wanted to post up my settings to:
    1) see if this is the best way of doing things.
    2) Other people may find them useful if they had the same problems I had,
    The Solution
    In photoshop
    Save the photoshop image in CMYK by selecting:
    Edit > Convert to prfile.
    (in destination space)
    select: Euroscale Coated v2   (I think this holds the colours the truest of all CMYK colour formats.)
    (in conversion options)
      - Engine: Adobe ACE
      - Intent: Perceptual.
      - Check Use black point Compensation.
    (leave all else unchecked)
    Save the image ready to place in indesign (place rather than copy and paste.).
    In Indesign
    edit > colour settings   (make sure you click on the advanced tick box to open more options)
      - Working space: =
      - RGB:  sRGB IEC....
      - CMYK Euroscale coated v2
      - RGB & CMYK convert to working space.
      - Engine Adobe ACE
      - Perceptual
      - Use black point compensation
    edit > Assign profiles
      - RGB profile. > Assign current workspace: sRGB IE
      - CMYK > Assign current work space Euroscale Coated V2
      - Solid colour intent : preceptual
      - Default image intent
      - After blending intent:  Perceptual.
    edit > convert to profile.  (use similar as above).
    edit > Preferences > Apprearance of black
      - on screen / export : Display all blacks as enriched black
      - Priniting and export : Display all blacks as enriched black
    Overprint: (not checked)
    ------ when exporting to PDF ----------
    File > Export
    in GENERAL TAB
      - Adobe PDF preset: High quality print.
      - Standard (drop down menu): PDF/X-42008
      - Compatability: Acrobat 5 PDF1:4
    in OUTPUT
      - COlour conversion: Convert to destination
      - Destination:  Working CMYK Euroscale Coated v2
    in PDF/X
      - Output intent profile name: Working CMYK - Euroscale Coated v2
    also:
    If you are having problems with fill blacks not coming out as proper black then use registration instead of black from the swatch panel.
    The above may seem either obvious to most of you or possibly not the best way of doing things but since the results worked for me and I found them tough to arrive at, it may be of use to others hence my post.
    I would like your feedback on this process, have I done something wrong / could do better?  If so please let me know.  I am keen to improve.

    I would copy and paste into InDesign forum. Text should stay 100% black. Any other black (like solid boxes or thick lines), I usually use a rich black swatch I created at 40/40/40/100. Looks 10 times better than just 100% black.

  • Function modules for unit conversion

    hai gurus.

    pls help me with this

    Hi

    Some Insights-
    Unit conversions
    with NW2004s the HOW-TO GUIDE for qty conversion is obsolete.
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/27/b65c42b4e05542e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
    As of SAP NetWeaver 2004s you can create quantity conversion types using transaction RSUOM.
    The business transaction rules of the conversion are established in the quantity conversion type. The conversion type is a combination of different parameters (conversion factors, source and target units of measure) that determine how the
    conversion is performed.
    In terms of functionality, quantity conversion is structured similarly to currency translation.
    Quantity conversion allows you to convert key figures with units that have different units of measure in the source system into a uniform unit of measure in the BI system when you update them into InfoCubes
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04s/helpdata/en/27/b38c4284a8c353e10000000a1550b0/content.htm
    It is entered in ODS table linked to info object (0material)
    What you need to do basically is-
    1 ) Goto your infoobject for eg- 0material
    2 ) In Info object Maintenance- Tab page- Bex Explorer
    3 ) Enter 0BASE_UOM in Base unit of measure
    4 ) Generate UOM ODS (System generates it with prefix UOM)
    It is made of 4 fields (1 more in case of compounding) with SID for them. This is the place where you enter numerator and
    denominator to calculate conversion factor
    5 ) Load the UOM ODS with conversion from 0MAT_UNIT_ATTR or flat file
    6 ) Define conversion type
    7 ) In the conversion type, then you can select 0Material in the dynamic determination of conversion factor
    8 ) Select source unit and target unit
    For more help refer SAP help file on NW2004s. It is comprehensive and even explain - How to do unit conversion in
    transformation rule?

  • IBR : Custom conversion

    Hi,
    I am trying to test the custom conversion with IBR.
    As a first step I would like to be able to execute a java method before the PDF conversion of a MS Word document.
    I have created a component with the following tables :
    <@table CustomConversion_DocumentConversions@>
    <table border=1><caption><strong>CustomConversion_DocumentConversions</strong></caption>
    <tr>
    <td>drConversion</td>
    <td>drSteps</td>
    <td>drDescription</td>
    <td>drIsEnabledFlag</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>CheckLinks</td>
    <td>CheckLinksFile</td>
    <td>check link into doc files</td>
    <td>TRUE</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>MSOffice</td>
    <td>ExecuteSubconversion<$stepsToWebviewable="CheckLinksFile, MSOfficeToPostscript, PostscriptToPDF, ExecuteSubconversion<$subConversion='CreateThumbnail'$>", subConversion="UniversalConversion", supportsOIX="true", supportsXX="true", supportsOO="true", supportsIX="true"$></td>
    <td>Conversion MS Office customisee</td>
    <td>TRUE</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    <@end@>
    <@table CustomConversion_ConversionSteps@>
    <table border=1><caption><strong>CustomConversion_ConversionSteps</strong></caption>
    <tr>
    <td>drStep</td>
    <td>drStepType</td>
    <td>drStepAction</td>
    <td>drStepParameters</td>
    <td>drStepTimeoutName</td>
    <td>drStepReport</td>
    <td>drStepControlCodes</td>
    <td>drStepDescription</td>
    <td>drStepIsEnabled</td>
    </tr>
    <tr>
    <td>CheckLinksFile</td>
    <td>Code</td>
    <td>oracle.customconversion.CheckLinksFileStep</td>
    <td></td>
    <td></td>
    <td>!csCheckFiles</td>
    <td>onErrorFail</td>
    <td>Sample step that checks word files</td>
    <td>TRUE</td>
    </tr>
    </table>
    <@end@>
    The "CheckLinksFile" step should be executed as it is added to the conversion steps of the MSOffice conversion.
    However, it does not seem to be executed ...
    Below, I copy the console output :
    starting conversion: WORD; is subconversion: false
    Script: TRUE

    Evaluated to: PDFExport, ExecuteSubconversion
    Starting step: PDFExport
    Script: onErrorFail, producesRequiredWebviewable
    The java method that should be executed does a System.out.println that should appear in that log ...
    Does someone have an idea ?
    Thank you,
    Romain.

    Hi Raphael,
    Thank you for your answer.
    I am just trying to do a simple task to see how I could customize the IBR conversions.
    I have written a simple Java class with a method that just writes a comment into the conversion logs.
    I've also made a component that adds lines into the conversions and steps tables to enable my custom conversion.
    My java method should be executed before PDF conversion but I do not see the comment into the logs even if the conversion succeeded !
    I don't know if I do not look at the right log files (IBR output into the IBR console) or if I missed something ...
    Have you an idea ?
    Did you use the same method to create custom conversions (java class + custom component) ?
    Thank you,
    Romain.

  • CBWFQ: Question about the output of "show policy-map interface" command

    Hi everyone,
    I have a question about the output of "show policy-map interface" command.
    The following is the output of this command and lower side of the output shows
    (total queued/total drops/no-buffer drops) 0/342/0
    If the packets drop occur due to the situation of no enough buffer,
    "no-buffer drops" counted up. But "no-buffer drops" has not been counted up.
    The "no-buffer drops" is 0 (zero) but "total drops" are counted as 342.
    I guess there are other factors except "no-buffer drops" to add "total drops".
    But I can not find any information about "other factors".
    So I would like to know the "other factors" added to "total drops".
