   </Header>
   <CompanyCode>
      <CompanyCodeValue>sf</CompanyCodeValue>
   </CompanyCode>
My reqirement is :company code should not fetced to output structure
IN FCC if m putting Header,LineItems,CompanyCode all the thing s in record structure .its fetching all the values in comma separeted structure.but i dont want to display company code in output structure.so please let me know how i will do this one

Hi,
1. Do not map the Company code to the target structure. By this way you dont need an FCC to remove it in the receiver side.
2. Or use the Following FCC.
CompanyCode.fieldFixedLengths = 0
CompanyCode.fixedLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
CompanyCode.endSeparator = '0'
Thanks

    Hi Sudheer reddy,
            Good question.
    File content conversion parameters are:

    2) Doccument Namespace: mention the name space for the message type.
    3) Doccument Offset: for which row and which coloumn doccument has to be write.
    4) recordset name: mention the record set name: Recordset
    5) Recordset Namespace: if the namespace is different for message type name space mention name space or otherwise it is blank.
    6) Recordset Structure: Mention the structure name
    7) Recordset Sequence: mention the sequence of the recordset Ascending or Decending
    8) Recordset permessage: Would define no of record sets per message.
    9) Key-field name: to query to the doccument
    10) Key field type: string(Case-senstive)
    fieldValues
    fieldSeparator
    endSeparator
    Note: pls check in SDN about file content conversions it so many blogs are available, u can easily understand.

  • 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.

  • Sender File Content Conversion Complexity

    It is again time to dip into the well of knowledge that is SDN.
    I have a question about sender file content conversion.  
    It appears that I can only create simple XML structures with it, but I'm hoping someone here can help.
    Lets says I have a file where each record layout is the same.   There are not header records, trailer records, etc.   Basically only one structure within the recordset.
    However the record itself may have a complicated structure.   For example, the layout of each record may be:
    String1, String2, String3, Array(0:3) consisting of String4, String5, String6.
    Can I convert that to a structure of
    <Node>
        <string1>
        <string2>
        <string3>
        <array>
            <string4>
            <string5>
            <string6>
        <array>
            <string4>
            <string5>
            <string6>
    </Node>
    Or must I create a DT containing one node giving string4,5 and 6 a unique name for each occurance?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    You can go with generic structure and then either in the adapter module or Mapping, you can format the structure. Because content conversion has a limitation to upto one level.
    check this for limitation-

    check this for generic structure-

Is it always neccessary to have the data type structure as File, Record, Row and then the fields. Is it always neccesary to maintain this level of hierarchy for File content conversion to work.

    Hi Sonia,
    For FCC sender or receiver if you want text with delimieter / csv file process.
    use the below parameters
    You would have to use the Document name ,namespace,record set name ,record strucutre name ( and occurrences also) and processing parameters in Sender side
    In receiver side Record structre, processing parameters.
    see below links to have more details..

  • Question about File Content Conversion and parent-child relationships...

    Hello!
         I have read probably every blog, article and SAP Help document on the topic, but I am stuck on this one.  I am trying to convert a General Ledger flat file to an IDoc using the classic file --> IDoc scenario.  The setup is done and working, but the IDocs are formatted incorrectly and I believe at least part of the reason is how I am converting the file content. 
    The root of my problem is that the flat file has a parent-child relationship between the document header and the document item and I want to maintain that since the IDoc type (FIDCCP01) has the same structure in the BKPF and BSEG segments.
    Here is the flat (non-XML) file layout that is coming into the file adapter:
    FileHeader
    DocumentHeader
    DocumentItem
    DocumentHeader
    DocumentItem
    and so on (until the number of documents is complete
    I would really like the content to be converted so that the line items stay under their parent document headers like this:
    <FileHeader></FileHeader>
    <DocumentHeader>
       <ItemHeader>
       </ItemHeader>
    </DocumentHeader>
    <DocumentHeader>
       <ItemHeader>
      </ItemHeader>
    </DocumentHeader>
    But I keep getting this, where it lists the document headers first (one after another), and then all of the line items after the document headers like this:
    <FileHeader></FileHeader>
    <DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
    <DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
    <DocumentHeader></DocumentHeader>
    <ItemHeader></ItemHeader>
    Is is possible to maintain that parent-child relationship from the flat file and pass it over to the XML?
    Thanks,
    John

  • Limitations of File Content Conversion (FCC)

    Hi
    I want to know the Limitations of File Content Conversion (FCC) while defining for a particular structure.
    I was bit confused from the [SAP Help |http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/EN/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm]
    It says "There can be a fixed or variable number of substructures in a recordset." but from sdn i found
    [Content Conversion in File Adapter   |Content Conversion in File Adapter]
    It will support "A maximum of 3 hierarchy level will be supported in FCC"
    Is <recordset> Mandatetory in for FCC, what if we dont have <recordset> in the structure.
    Till what hierarchy level it supports
    what is the limitation of FCC
    Regards,
    Varun
    Edited by: Varun Reddy on Feb 26, 2009 4:52 PM

    Varun,
    Both statements are true:
    Consider, for instance, a file containing orders. You could have:
    HEADER;123;456;11112 (containing sender 123, receiver 456, order number 11112)
    PARTNER;OR;234 (containing the ordering partner number 234)
    PARTNER;DL;235 (containing the delivery address 235)
    DATE;OR;20090226 (containing the order date 26/02/2009)
    DATE;DL;20090228 (containing the delivery date 28/02/2009)
    LINE;9998;12 (article number 9998, quantity 12)
    LINE;9996;25 (article number 9996, quantity 25)
    LINE;9991;3 (article number 9991, quantity 3)
    HEADER;123;456;11113 (2nd order containing sender 123, receiver 456, order number 11113)
    PARTNER;OR;234 (containing the ordering partner number 234)
    PARTNER;DL;237 (containing the delivery address 237)
    DATE;OR;20090226 (containing the order date 26/02/2009)
    DATE;DL;20090301 (containing the delivery date 01/03/2009)
    LINE;9998;4 (article number 9998, quantity 4)
    Parsing such a file with FCC would be possible, provided there's an identifier that indicates the type of line (like 'HEADER', 'PARTNER', etc). This is an example of There can be a variable number of substructures in a recordset.
    If the records do not contain an identifier from which you can see the line type, FCC can only parse this if the order of the various structure types is fixed, so that it can determine from the line number what type of record this is. This would be an example of There can be a fixed number of substructures in a recordset.
    Now, about A maximum of 3 hierachy level will be supported in FCC. In the FCC, there are three levels: the recordset (one order in the above example), the record (a line in the file) and the field (the order number, for instance). The FCC does not support files with deeper nesting. For instance, if a line item in your flat file could also contain a delivery date, FCC does not support this.
    Hope this helps,
    Koen

  • Question regarding File Content Conversion

    Dear SAP experts,
    I need you expert advise regarding this.
    I have here my sample structure,
    CSV ---> this is the message type of the message
       '-- ROOT --> this is the root node
               '-- FieldA --> has a value of "Filename"
               '-- Field B
                      '-- subfield1 --> has a value of "A"
                      '-- subfield2 --> has a value of "B"
                      '-- subfied3 --> has a value of "C"
    I want to output this flatfile,
    subfield1;subfield2;subfield3
    A;B;C
    the output flatfile must have Header lines (subfield1;subfield2;subfield3)
    What will be the correct parameters in my File Content Conversion, so as, the value "Filename" will not be included in the output flatfile?
    Recordset Structure: ?
    Kindly advise.
    Thank you very much!

  • Problem with File Content Conversion

    Hi All
    I am facing a problem with file content conversion.
    This is my sample file structure:
    Header_Record (Occurance - 1)
    Field1 in Header
    Field2 in Header
    Item(Occ-1 to n)
    Field3 in Item
    Field4 in Item
    <<ItemType>> (Structure in Item) (Occ - 0 to n)
    <<Field5>> in ItemType
    <<Field6>> in ItemType
    <<ItemTypeCategory>> (Structure in ItemType)(Occ - 0 to n)
    <<<<Field7>>>> in ItemTypeCategory
    <<<<Field8>>>> in ItemTypeCategory
    Footer_Record (Occurance-1)
    Field9
    Field10
    There is a key field 'Type' in all the above records with unique value in each record.
    Now, I defined Field content conversion as follows:
    Recordset Structure: Header_Record,1,Item, * , ItemType, * ,ItemTypeCategory, * ,Footer_Record,1
    Recordset Sequence: Ascending
    KeyField Name: Type
    Following are parameters defiled:
    Header_Record.Keyfieldvalue: 00
    Header_Record.fieldseperator: ,
    Header_Record.fieldnames: Field1,Field2
    Header_Record.endseperator: 'nl'
    Item.keyfieldvalue: 05
    item.fieldseperator: ,
    item.fieldfieldnames: field3,field4
    item.endseperator: 'nl'
    ItemType.keyfieldvalue: 10
    itemType.fieldseperator: ,
    itemType.fieldfieldnames: field5,field6
    itemType.endseperator: 'nl'
    ItemTypecategory.keyfieldvalue: 15
    itemTypecategory.fieldseperator: ,
    itemTypecategory.fieldfieldnames: field7,field8
    itemTypecategory.endseperator: 'nl'
    Footer.keyfieldvalue: 20
    Footer.fieldseperator: ,
    Footer.fieldfieldnames: field5,field6
    Footer.endseperator: 'nl'
    Now, i pass the following file:
    00,111
    05,222
    10,333
    15,444
    20,555
    What i expect out of my FCC is this (Sample output to show the hierarchy of field values):
    00,111
    05,222
    <<10,333>>
    <<<<15,444>>>>
    20,555
    But, I am getting this output (Hierarchy is missing. All the structures are in the same order without hierarchy):
    00,111
    05,222
    10,333
    15,444
    20,555
    Field values are being identified according to field content conversion, but, the hierarchy of the fields is missing.
    Can you please tell me how should i change my FCC config?
    Sorry for this long question.
    Many Thanks

    You will always get a flat structure from FCC. If you want hierarchichal strucuture, you have to create a target and map. You will get only like -
    Root
    --Recordset
    Group1
    Fields
    Grop2

  • Java Mapping Or Adapter Module for MultiLevel File Content Conversion ??

    Hi Experts,
    Hi All,
    As we all know file content conversion cannot parse more than three level even if we use FCC paramenters or MessageTransform Bean /StrictXmlToPlain Bean.
    Currently i am facing an scenario where i can expect an content coversion with four or five levels.
    for ex.
    Target Message Looks like
    Header(0..1)
           |_____X
           |_____Y
           |_____Detail(0.n)
                 |____A
                 |____B
                 |____SubDetail(0.n)
                        |_____Trailer(0.n)
                                |______rec1
                                |______rec2
                                |______rec3(0..n)
                                       |______Subrec1
                                       |______Subrec2
    So my question how can i do the FixedLength/CSV in the target system ???
    Shall i do java mapping ? if yes then any code example relevant to this type of scenario
    Shall i do adapter module development ?if yes then any code example relevant to this type of scenario
    Thanks In Advance
