Receiver File FCC Issue

Dear Experts,
I have follwed Arpit Seth's blog "File Receiver with Content Conversion" and completed Recv FCC scenario for below structure with parameters:
Records.fieldSeparator= ,
RecordList.fieldSeparator='nl'
Records.endSeparator='nl'
<root>
<RecordList>
<Records>
   <ID>123</ID>
   <Name>SAP</Name>
   <Loc>US</Loc>
</Records>
</RecordList>
</root
How can perform same Recv FCC for below given structure. I have given parameters as -
Records.fieldSeparator= ,
Records.endSeparator='nl'
Its not working....Need suggestions...thanks in advance...
<root>
<Records>
<ID>123</ID>
<Name>SAP</Name>
<Loc>US</Loc>
</Records>
</root>

Hi,
in Record Structure = Records
add one more as Records.addHeaderLine = 0
just try if it works.

Removing quotes in receiver file FCC.....

Hi,
I am working in a scenario where I am doing FCC on receiver file adapter and generating a text file.
Now,I have given comma as the field end seperator.But some fields exists that have comma in their values....Now my FCC isnot working properly....
If I send those fileds in quotes,and want to send them to recever system without quotes,what should I do??
Is there any option as enclosureSignEsc,in receiver file adapter FCC too as in sender file FCC????

Ask your customer or project lead.
You cannot have a comma as field seperator, when you have also commas in the field values.

Receiver File - FCC

Folks,
The understanding is that you need to have a flat XML without hierarchies at the receiver File adapter for a successful FCC.
<root>...
   <nameA>
         <value1>value</value1>
         <value2>value</value2>
         <value3>value</value3>
   </nameA>
   <nameB>
         <value4>value</value4>
   </nameB>
</root>...
Now has this understanding changed?
I 'think' I saw some blog or article on converting a hierarchical XML to a flat file on the receiver file adapter using the FCC parameters some time back.
Not sure about this. Does someone know or confirm if there is such a link?
Thanks folks,
Shabz

Hey ...
You are true... There is still limitation on receiver FCC...
So, I have (always)used an ABAP mapping to flatten my structure (not the exact code but similar to what has been mentioned in the weblog )
http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/weblogs;jsessionid=(J2EE3417400)ID0189460050DB12714177844362848175End?blog=/pub/wlg/5720
This will give u more flexibility in designing & working with XML's while using FCC.
I still use deep XML structures for FCC...

To Generate file with whitespaces for the last fields -Receiver file FCC

Hi Experts,
We need to create a file at receiver side having last field of 50 length.If value of last field is less than 50 length than we need to keep whitespaces on the right side.When we create file the whitespaces get trimmed and files are created without whitespaces.I am using fixed field length FCC.Please help me resolve this issue.
Thanks & Regards
Deepak Jaiswal

If you like to have UDF ... here it is ..
public String appendWhiteSpaces(String var1, Container container) throws StreamTransformationException{
if(var1.length()< 50){
for(int count=0;var1.length()<50;count++){
var1 = var1 + " ";
return var1;

Comma problem in receiver file FCC csv file

Hi,
We had a problem with CSV conversions in file adapter.Our scenario is: Proxy>Xi>FCC(csv)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <n0:RDM_OrganizationalStructure_MT_OB xmlns:n0="ness.com:RDM_ORGANIZATIONALSTRUCTURE" xmlns:prx="urn:sap.com:proxy:DV3:/1SAI/TAS9B35FF35521A19F6CBEE:701:2009/02/10">
- <row>
<KTEXT>Information,Technology</KTEXT>
<KTEXT>"Information, for internal use only" </KTEXT>
</row>
</n0:RDM_OrganizationalStructure_MT_OB>
In O/P csv file the filed KTEXT is spiting as Information onecolumn and Technology in the next column.
for avoiding this i conceited with " (double-quote) on both the sides to the KTEXT filed. so the Information,Technolg is appending in the same column. Its fine,
but for the second record from the source side itself the its getting as "Information, for internal use only"
so this it is spliting and appending in the next column. in 1st column Information and in the 2nd for internal use only. i want to append this in 1st column as "Information, for internal use only"
how to resolve this issue for appending the record in the same column?
and also i want to know why " is not inserting in csv file.
My Fcc conversion parameters are
record Structure: row
row.addHeaderLine: 1
row.headerLine: Code,Name,Description
row.fieldSeparator: ,
row.endSeparator: 'nl'
pls advice how to overcome this problem
Thanks

Hi Vanka,
In O/P csv file the filed KTEXT is spiting as Information onecolumn and Technology in the next column. for avoiding this i conceited with " (double-quote) on both the sides to the KTEXT filed. so the Information,Technolg is appending in the same column. Its fine,
To make it in the same column, you put it into double quotes.
"Information,Technology" -->> Information,Technology
but for the second record from the source side itself the its getting as "Information, for internal use only" . so this it is spliting and appending in the next column. in 1st column Information and in the 2nd for internal use only. i want to append this in 1st column as "Information, for internal use only"
As this already has double quotes, you need to use 2 more double quotes to escape that.
"""Information, for internal use only""" -->> "Information, for internal use only"

Receiver File Adapter Issue

Hi,
I have a scenario like R3(IDOC)->XI(Mapping)->FTP(Content Conversion)
I am trying to FTP a file across to a vendor's FTP server using the reciver file . adapter. The target filename is of the form %ABC%IJK%%b.However on posting the file i get a message like.
An error occurred while connecting to the FTP server '<hostname>:21'. The FTP server returned the following error message: 'com.sap.aii.adapter.file.ftp.FTPEx: 200 Command Okay. ID: <userid>, Current TR - Recv: <userid>, APRF: *BINARY, Dir: S. Get option: single. '. For details, contact your FTP server vendor.
It seems although the connection is established, the ftp put does not work
Can anyone help on what is the cause of the error and possible solutions.
Regards,
Alex.

There can be following things:
- Target Dir is not present or you dont have an authorization to create it.
- Check the Access to put the file in that directory.
Check the same for other interface also. If other interfaces are running fine then try to put the file in that DIRECTORY for test purpose.
Thanks
Farooq.

Receiving file adapter content conversion issue

Guys,
Could someone please help me with a Receiving file adapter issue?
My output structure is something like this:
Vendor_file_MT (occurence 1)
--Recordset (occurence 0..unbounded)
Vendor (occurence 1)
Field1
Field2
Field3
Field73
Field74
My content conversion is very simple:
Recordset Structure: Vendor
Parameters:
Vendor.fieldFixedLengths   30,30,30, (...) ,1,27
Vendor.fixedLengthTooShortHandling   Cut
Vendor.endSeparator   'nl'
If I don't do the content conversion, it works fine, I get all the fields in the XML format.
When I do the content conversion however, I get multiple lines but only the very first field of each line.
What could be the problem? What am I missing here? Any idea?
Your help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Viktor

Varga:
Its little strange that its not working even after adding that. Did you check the receiver channel in your RWB for any logs. Add the statement in my previous post and Also try to clear the Cache and activate the channel again..See if it works
Glad it worked

IDOC to File - FCC scenario

Hi Friends.
Scenario is in PI 7.0 . IDOC is received from SAP and after file content conversion placed in file server.
Suddenly few days back it started throwing error in receiver file FCC communication channel - error is -
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'java.lang.Exception: Column value ' ' too long (>3 for 27. column) - must stop', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)': java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'java.lang.Exception: Column value ' ' too long (>3 for 27. column) - must stop', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)
but the same scenario with same inputs (same payload,same IR and ID configuration) works fine in development environment.
in SXMB_MONI message shows as SUCCESSFUL and payload is also OK.
Pls suggest what to do in this case..

Hi,
This is happening because - if there is any empty tag coming from source then target structure tag will not be created and because of which ur payload structure and FCC configuration is not matching.
I would recon use map with default between source n target strcture so in case source tag dont have value target structure will be created because of mapwithdegfault fuction and ur FCC will not fail.
Open SXMB_MONI output payload and compare the structre with Data type u will se for no source value target tag is not created at all and FCC is failed.
For exa- I ahve name,age,*** as my target data type and FCC is 10,3,4
If i dont receive age from source the value of *** is taken as 3 length as per FCC becus age tag is not created in target.

RECEIVER FILE ADAPTER FCC ERROR

Hi team
My scenario is a text file has to be picked up by PI, has to processe it and the receiver is Proxy and it has to get updated and sent back to FTP location.
i am using Sender File Adapter with FCC and Also receiver File Adapter with FCC.
Both the sender and receiver structures are same; i am using the same FCC parameters for both the sides.
in Receiver File Adapter i am getting the following errors
1) Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found:
Parameter '.fieldFixedLengths' or '.fieldSeparator' is missing
2)Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found:
Parameter '1.fieldFixedLengths' or '1.fieldSeparator' is missing
please help me out
thank you

Hi,
> 1) Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found:

> 2)Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found:

It is saying that you are not using the fieldSeparator parqameter.
have you provided the field separator parameter? if not then give like below
order_row.fieldSeparator : , (give what ever the separater you are using)
or
order_row.fieldSeparator : 10,5,... (if you are using fixed length)

FCC in receiver file adapter

Hi,
My scenario is proxy to flat file(FCC). The incoming structure has following format:
Header1
Item1

Item3
Header3
Item1
Item2
Control
Each Header can have multiple item fields. The last line is control record.
So the structure is like ::::: header, item, item, item, header, item u2026.., control.
what configuration should be done in FCC?
Thanks in Advance.

File Receiver Adapter FCC parameters

Hi
I have a File to File format via PI
I have the following structure from the sender File adapter passing to receiver file adapter.
The inbound structure as follow
<CONTRACT>
<HEADER>
    <X1>
    <X2>
<LINE>
   <Y1>
   <Y2>
   <Y3>
I have configured the FCC parameter at Receiver file adapter as follow
HEADER.fieldseparator -    '0x09'
LINE.fieldseparator - '0x09'
I can get Header and LINE items.
But with mutiple records, I can only receive one record.
I have tried a lot of combination based on the forum thread on this matter but to no avail
I would like to seek your expert advice.
Regards
Fred

The payload at the target adapter show only
<Header>
<Line>
<Line>
<Line>
occurences is 1:unbounded
I have also tried adding in Header.endSeparator - 'nl'
                                         Line.endSeparator - 'nl'
but the output is still the same with one record.
I have check the payload at Sender adapter CC
and found it is coming as one record only
though the source file has mulitple records.
BTW, the source file structure is fixedlength with header indicator as H
line indicator as L.
Therefore I have set keyfield parameter in Sender adapter FCC as H and L

FCC Parameters are required in the Receiver File Adapter

Hi ,
   Sorry for posting this question again.. my Structure is

for this structure I'm geting data in the XML format.. .. my scenario is simple File to File scenario.. now i want to convert this XML to a normal Text file by using FCC in the Receiver file adapter..
and in the Receiver side   i want the file in the bellow format: (each field i want to get in the separate line but at presnt I'm getting the continution of all lines I'm not getting the data in a separate lines..)
Header_string
LineItem_String
LineItem_String

Hi jain
Provide as below definitely it will work,

batch.fieldSeparator        ---      'nl'
Line_Item.fieldSeparator -
     'nl'
LineItem_String.fieldSeparator ---   'nl'
All your fields will come in a separate line.

File Receiver using FCC

Hi All,
I want to generate a file with structure like below:
"100","Field1","Field2","Field3"
"200","Field41","Field51","Field61"
"200","Field42","Field52","Field62"
Here 100 n 200 are row identifiers. My data type for receiver side is as follows:
<Data_Type>
    <Header>(0,1 ocurence)
         <100>
         <Field1>
         <Field2>
         <Field3>
     <Item>( 1 to unbound ocurence)
          <200>
          <Field4>
          <Field5>
          <Field6>
I am getting error "Channel has not been correctly initialized and cannot process messages" in communication channel monitoring because Receiver Communication channel is not configured correctly.
Can Anybody please tell me what should be parameters in FCC in Content Conversion?

Issue with Sender File FCC

Hi Experts,
I have an issue with Sender File FCC Adapter. The file being picked is of type TXT and it is tab seperated. The first line contains the field names and from next line onwards we have values for those fields.
The field names and field values are tab seperated. Even inserting a single letter in some field value manually disrupts the whole setup & alignment of the TXT file and the Sender File CC is unable to pick up the file from the shared folder. If the first file is errorenous and after that a correct TXT file is posted, it fails to pick up the correct file as it is trying to pick the errorenous file first.
The Error thrown is :
"Conversion of file content to XML failed at position 0: java.lang.Exception: ERROR converting document line no. 2 according to structure 'ABCD':java.lang.Exception: ERROR in configuration / structure 'ABCD.': More elements in file csv structure than field names specified!"
I have two questions:
1. Is there a way to handle such a scenario? For e.g., the errornous TXT file gets picked but throws error in PI.
2. Is there an alternative that the sender FCC channel picks up the correct files and filter out the errorneous ones ? ?
Thanks,
Arkesh

Hi Arkesh,
I think you are passing more number of fields than expected. Please check paramters defined and send the data accordingly.
In the processing parameters tab of sender file adapter, you have an option called Archive faulty source files, below to that you would have option to enter the " Directory for Archiving files with Errors".
I hope this helps you....
Thanks,
