REG: Acknowledgement for receiver file adapter

Hi All,
I have a scenario where i need to make a rfc call to update SAP table after the file is placed in the target folder. Can this be acheived without using BPM.
Thanks,
Siva

Hi Siva,
I think this cannot be achieved without BPM. You need to go ahead with BPM.

Acknowledgement from receiver file Adapter with out BPM

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to get Acknowledgement from Receiver file Adapter with out Using BPM.
Here is the scenario. I am sending files from different Sender Adapters. There is only one target that is File Adapter. After each successfull and failure transaction I need an Acknowledgement that needs to trigger another receiver adapter and send the the file name and timestamp to that file.
Hope this is a complicated scenario. Please help me.
Thanks,
Kevin

from sap note 821267
6. Acknowledgements
    * Q: Does the File Adapter support acknowledgements?
    * A: You need to distinguish system acknowledgements (indicating that a message has been received by the target system) and application acknowledgements (indicating that the message has been successfully processed by the application on the receiver side).
           The receiver of an XI message will only send an acknowledgement back to the sender if the sender has requested one. However, the File Adapter has no functionality that relies on the receipt of an acknowledgement, so it never requests one.
           On the other hand, if a File Adapter Receiver receives a request to send an acknowledgement, it will do so for a system acknowledgement request. Application acknowledgements are not supported at all as the File Receiver has no way to determine if the written file has been correctly processed by the back-end application, which is what a positive application acknowledgement would imply.
this means that your requirement is ideally not possible without a BPM

Dynamic File Name for Receiver File Adapter

Hi All,
How can we use dynamic name for Receiver file adapter?
Can anyone help.
Thanks in Advance
Chemmanz

Hi Chemmanz,
The dynamic filename generation concept is as follows.
In your filename field. just give a variable with % symbols. (eg: %file% ).
Now, under the option Variable Name Substitution, you can give how the value has to be created.
It can be your interface name, sender service name, etc or it can be some value dynamically from your payload.
For the former, your give
message:interface_name ,etc
and for the payload part you give,
Payload: "your element root which u wanna acecss"
Just check this link out,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/content.htm
And read the contents under variable substitution and it will help you understand the concepts better.
If you have any clarifications, do get back,

OS Command for receiver file adapter

Hi Guys,
I have a requirement that in the target folder before putting the file, I have to rename the exisitng file then put the file. The target folder is in another machine and I have to use FTP option to send file.
is it possible to use OS command after processing option in the receiver file adapter to do this? please let me know how to handle this.
Thanks
Mukesh

Mukesh,
You cannot rename the file in the FTP folder. What you can do is write a OS script where it logs in into the FTP site and renames the file. Then use this OS script before message processing so that it renames the file before you write the actual file.
If you want to rename a file which is on the applicaiton server using NFS then you can directly rename it from the command prompt.

XML Format not poper For receiver File Adapter

I am using XML File to xML File scenario. My receiver is SAP R/3 system. When I send file from another system, It is properly seen in payload but the file is not properly recived on SAP R/3. The XML File appears on single line and when seen on SAP side side the fileis cut after some length. Any help is appreciated.

hi,
>>>The XML File appears on single line and when seen on SAP side side the fileis cut after some length. Any help is appreciated.
it's probably not the XML file file that is corrupter but the way you view the file
do you open it from AL11? if so it does not show the whole file
PI/XI does not cut XML files for sure

is there any way to have access to Filename in different root elements??

Hi Ralf,
i think, you need for each XML msg (each different root element) a new adapter -> a new IF determination, new rec agreement and a new channel.

Receiver File adapter content conversion using StrictXml2PlainBean

For receiver file adapter i am using the module StrictXml2PlainBean, and also i mentioned the module configuration like this

Receiver File Adapter with File content Conversion

I have a requirement to send 2 different files to the target directory. Source is the same and different mapping for the 2 files.
This I can achieve through multi-mapping but there is a problem. How can I use the File content for receiver File adapter which is using Multimapping.
The structure of the 2 files also different.

Why would you need FCC on receiver file adapter? If you need different files to be generated from the source, you could create two receiver channels with different mappings and just add them to the same Receiver Detemination. Isn't feasible?

Encoding issue in receiver file adapter

Hi experts,
I am having a file to file scenario using integrated configuration where i am using file encoding 'US-ASCII' for converting the target file to ASCII and its not working.
Is there any other settings need to be done in the receiver file adapter to convert to 'ASCII' encoding format?
Do we have any other method to convert to 'ASCII' format for the receiver file?
.txt file is used for this interface.
Thanks!

Hi Mahakrishnan,
What is the format of file mentioned in sender file adapter? If SAP-PI is receiving File format in US-ASCII. Then mention US-ASCII in sender communication channel in file encoding field,file type will be text. In case the file format received by SAP-PI is normal text file then by default sender adapter will convert it to UTF-8. Maintain the file type=text and encoding=US-ASCII for receiver file adapter also.
ASCII is an alias for US-ASCII file encoding, hence both mean the same encoding. Thus this format should work. If its still not working please refer to SAP note 821267.

Scheduling Receiver File Adapter

Hi All,
I would like to know if "Planning Availability Times" works for receiver file adapter (communication channel).
My scenario is IDoc to file. The IDoc from SAP end might be sent to XI at anytime but XI has to create the target file at a specific time on a day (say 9 pm). I'm just wondering if I can use "Planning Availability Times" to schedule the receiver cc.
Thanks in advance.

Joe.

Problem receiving acknowledgement: abap proxy == file adapter

Hi experts,
I am developing an asynchrone interface using PI 7.0. The scenario is: SAP ==> FILE.
In SAP I have created an abap proxy in wich I requested an acknowledgement when calling from the abap code. In PI I have created an Integration Process with a receive step, and a send step. In de send step I am asking for a transport acknowledgement.
When I test the interface and I look in the SXMB_MONI in PI, I see the acknowledgement given back to the IP, but in the SAP backend system I don't receive anything in the abap proxy which had send the original message. In de SXMB_MONI from SAP I see a "?" Still awaiting acknowledgement.
Can anyone help me with this scenario? I really need an acknowledgement from the file adapter in the calling abap proxy.
Regards, Jeroen

You need to crate a REceiver Agreement for this sender...
The Integration Server sends an acknowledgment message back to the sender (CENTRAL_BACK). It uses the name of the sender system for logical and technical backward routing.
If the sender is addressed using an ABAP proxy, you must define a corresponding receiver agreement for this sender.

Thanks in advance

There is nothing wrong in your content conversion parameters. This is pure editors interpretation for the next line character.
I would do in java program to fix this issue using '\r\n'   You might want to try and see how that helps for notepad editor.
