Require variable substitution
Hi Experts,
We are passing the file name as P160511_0001.txt within input field (input field name is File_Name)itself. the same output we want as P160511_0001.txt using variable substitution.please find the pay load message given below.

Kindly give the step by step proceedure for creating variable substitution.
regards
elton
reference: payload:Header,1,File_Name,5
File_Name is the 5 th field name
it should not be treated as position of the field in your XML....it is the number of occrence...as per your setting the file name should be taked from 5th occurence of File_Name....however this wont be the case....you need it from the only occurence present
So it should be Header,1,File_Name,1
below details are selected
adapter specific message attribute
file name
You dont need to set the above as you are using Variable Substitution and not ASMA....these are two different things
Why not implement Dynamic Configuration? Dont you have mapping in your scenario?

In variable substitution we use the receiver message type path.
Please map the required source field to any of the field at the reeiver side and use variable substitution.

Filename generation with variable substitution.
Hi,
I am currently working on a senerio in which file is receiver.The requirement is to generate file at target with the file name as message id.How can i use VARIABLE SUBSTITUTION and acheive this.
(Add message id in configuration should not be done.)Hello shruthi,
Please try this for the filename creation,
1. Create a UDF in the message mapping named getFileName, select only one input (to pass the messageid) and paste this coding there;
/* getFileName User Defined Function
// function to create name of output file
String filename;
filename = strFile;
try {
// initialize DynamicConfiguration for create file with given name
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container
.getTransformationParameters()
.get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key = DynamicConfigurationKey.create( "http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File", "FileName");
//create file with the specified name
conf.put(key, filename);
} catch (Exception ex) {
return filename;
2. In the target structure header field perform this mapping,
Messageid -> getfFileName UDF -> Target Structure Headerfield
3. Then in the Integration directory under the target tab
check the Use - adapter specific message attributes and File Name
Please follow the steps and let me know if u still face the same problem. -
Reciever File Adapter - Temp File Name Scheme using Variable Substitution
How can I create a temporary file that uses variable substitution?
We are having a problem with files merging when we write files using the "Use Temporary File" setting on the FIle Adapter. So two independent files are merging into a single file. We are not using the "Append" setting.
We would like to use a Temp File Name Scheme that would append the message id onto the temporary file name.
Using variable substitution we created a msgid variable. When added to the temporary file name using %msgid% the temporary file name is created with %msgid% in the name instead of the actual message id. We put the variable into the "File Name Scheme" as well and the end completed file used the message id in the name.
Any Ideas?
Thanks,
MattHI Matthew,
Why are you adding the message id into the temporary file??
I understand that you want the output of the filename to contain message id .. and hence you are using variable substitution for the same.
Temporary file name will anyways get overwritten by the actual file name (here the actual filename will be using variable substituion).
So i suggest to achieve your scenario you can add any name in the temporary file and maintain the desired filename you require as output in the variable subsititution.
Temporary File Name option actually acts as a lock - unlock mechanism from PI side while the file is getting written to the file server so that while PI is writting the file no third party application batch program picks it up.
I hope this helps.
Cheers

Variable Substitution not working when using ABAP mapping
Hi all,
I am doing an IDoc to File scenario.
Due to some complex mapping requirements, i had to use ABAP mapping for IDoc to File ( IDoc : SHPMNT05)
There is also one more requirement where in i need to generate the receiver filename dynamically
i.e the filename is of the form :
GW-XYZ-DD/MM/YYYY.csv
Where
XYZ is the Shipment number (E1EDT20- TKNUM)
DD/MM/YYYY is the IDOC creation date in ECC (EDIDC-CREDAT)
so i used the variable substitution option in receiver file adapter.
But its not working.
Is there any limitation for using the variable Substitution, doesnt variable substitution work in case of ABAP mapping?
Regards,
Loveena.Hi,
u written ABAP mapping program to get the file name in the required format ,
is it rt?
when u test it at message mapping(including ABAP map program)
u get the the required format of file name in the one of target filed.
if that was fine, please check the variable substituiton parameters at receiver file adapter.
i mean, are u maintain variable name and refernece.
u have to specify the payload information.
warm regards

Lower case in variable substitution
Hi experts,
in my scenario I have a receiver CC that put an xml file in a target server.
The requirement is to dynamically determine target directory based on a field on mapping header.
I have used variabile substitution to retrieve the value of the field, and with %% i have put this value on field target directory.
The problem is: value from mapping is in capital letter, but the name of the target directory in which I have to put the file is in lower case letters, and target server is case sensitive.
Obviously I cannot change value in mapping, but I need to put variable in variable substituion in lower letters.
Is it possible?
Thanks

no
also in case you want to put small case in variable substitution why cant you use dynamic configuration and set the values to lower case? -
File to file with out message mapping and using variable substitution
Hi,
Can any one send me a scenario where we can have file to file scenario with out message mapping and where i can use variable substitution.
As of now i am using integrate configurations where i cant use variable substitution as the message does not reflect in integration engine. I need to populate time stamp between <filename><timestamp>.txt.pgp
I am as of now using configuration scenario.
The time stamp always writes before the last file extension.
Let me know your thoughts?
Thanks,
Chandra.Hi Chandra,
u can use the Variable substitution even without IR contents also(Mapping....).
in the receiver communication channel just specify the path u want to access for a value...
eg: filename payload:mt_name,1,records,1,name,1
and in th file name give it as %filename%.txt... or vt ever ur requirement

Variable substitution: (delete leading zeros from file name)
Hi All,
I am configuring an IDOC to FILE (fcc scenario) with a requirement of using the IDOC number in the output file name.
Using variable substitution, I manged to get the IDOC number from incoming Idoc-control record but it comes in its entitre length with a few leading zeroes like '00000001234'.
So my output file name looks like 'Output_000000001234.txt' . I want it to be like 'Output_1234.txt'.
Is it possible to achieve it ?
Thanks
ShirinHi Shirin,
First supress the leading zeros of IDOC number by using the following code:
Create a user defined funciton zerosuppress and take the cache as value and take one argument input. Then put the code below:
//write your code here
String output = input.replaceFirst("^0+","");
return output;
Then use variable substitution for generating ur IDOC number in the out put file name.

Variable Substitution and Dynamic Configuration
Hi All,
In Variable Substitution , the name that should be given the the receiver payload should be part of the Source Payload unlike the Dynamic Configuration wherein the file name can be generated dynamically during mapping.
I have the following questions
1.Dont we need to write the UDF for the Variable substitution?
2.Cant we do the Dynamic configuration without writing UDF?If so then how?
3.In Dynamic Configuration the file name is generated dynamically.But where does the file name come from if it is not the part of the source payload?
Thanks in advanceHi Shwetha,
1.Dont we need to write the UDF for the Variable substitution?
No. Here we are accessing the contents of the payload to the target. So no UDF required.
2.Cant we do the Dynamic configuration without writing UDF?If so then how?
Yes and No.
Because we can set only few Dynamic configuration values without UDF.
If both source and target are File, then check ASMA on both sender and receiver. Then u can get the source directory name and source file name for target also without any UDF.Also some other parameters.
3.In Dynamic Configuration the file name is generated dynamically.But where does the file name come from if it is not the part of the source payload?
The file name comes along with the source in the payload as a attribute in header. U can view this in SXMB_MONI, and Dynamic Configuration.
In Dynamic Configuration the file name is generated dynamically.
No the file name is taken as it is from the source, if u want to change dynamically that u have to do in a UDF.
I hope this will clear all doubts,
If nt pl post

File adaptor and variable substitution
i have used variable substitution in the reciever comm channel to dynamically alter the folder ...Question is ..is there a way to do this from the sender comm channel..
I know, i know we can write a custom module..etc..etc..
I mean besides that ..is there a way sap provides out of the box...
Michal..what do you think..?
PS: your blog on var subst is very good !
Regards
VenkatHi Venkat,
For implementing variable substitution on the sender side. you can develop your own module as per your requirement.
Only question is you can easily implement this on receiver side receives payload information coming after the mapping. While processing communication channel, it has payload to refer for variable substitution..
While on the sender side communication channel do not have payload to implement variable substitution.
Can you explain in detail about condition you want to apply in variable substitution.

Problem related to variable substitution
Dear all ,
I have a query related to variable substitution :
The requirement is that filename should be in the following format : <b>%<store_code>%_%<Date>%</b>_master.xml .
I have done the configuration for Store_code in the variable substitution from Payload .
But I am facing <b>problem related to Date as the requirement is that we should not take the date from the payload</b> . We used "ADDtimestamp" in the file mode creation but it is generating file with time stamp also which doesn;t serve the purpose .
Can somebody suggest <b>how to take the current date without taking it from payload .</b> <b>Does anyone know something about standard current date which I can assign directly to Var2 .</b>
Thanks in advance
Regards
PrabhatHi,
In your mapping, have a user defined function which has a bit of Java to get the current date and time and pass back out to a variable.
Here is a code snippet I got in Google to do this :
import java.text.*;
import java.util.*;
public class Dtest {
public static void main(String args[]) {
SimpleDateFormat df = (SimpleDateFormat)
DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT);
System.out.println("The short date format is " + df.toPattern());
Locale loc = Locale.ITALY;
df = (SimpleDateFormat)
DateFormat.getDateInstance(DateFormat.SHORT, loc);
System.out.println("The short date format is " + df.toPattern());

Filename in J2SE Adapter with Variable Substitution
Hello,
Within the J2EE receiver fileadapter (and ftp) from SP13 it is possible to compose the target filename and directory based on the payload of a message using variable substitution.
I wonder if it is also possible to use variable substitution with the J2SE fileadapter. For this it is not documented but i thougth that the same java libraries are used for the J2EE an J2SE file-adapters.
Aybody??
Really Nobody??
Message was edited by: Emile HermansHello,
the J2SE Adapter does not support variable subsition. Therefore we created our own class which gets called from the main SAP XI class "XMB2FileProcessor.class" wich is in the jar "aii_msg_adapter.jar". In your own class you can do what ever you need to chane the file name. In the configuration you can set your own parameter to search the payload for a string you want to replace. We also had to come up with our own timestamp, e.g. file2005-11-10 which SAP does not let you do, only the full timestamp is possible.
One other nice thing is that you can develop our JAVA class local and test it with your local J2SE Adapter Engine on you PC before you deploy it.
Steps to do:
1. JAD the SAP class
2. Put a call in the SAP class
3. Compile the class
4. Put the class back in the archive
5. Create your own class
6. Create a jar file for it
7. Put the jar file in the tech_adapter directory
8. Change the run_adapter start cmd to include your jar file
It works great, the only issue is if you patch the J2SE engine you have to do step 1 to 4 again but that should it very easy to do.
Cheers

Please advise!
Best Regards,
Victor.Dear All,
My problem is solved!
The issue is because I don't put the interface mappings sequence as the same sequence as the message mappings sequence. Hence the structure name that i put in the variable substitution all are not match with the structure name in the payload even though all have the file name element.
So what i did is i have to reorder the sequence of my message mappings to be the same sequence as the interface mappings sequence.
Thanks for all that trying to help!
Appreciated it guys.
BTW, for the variable reference it's correct that i no need to put message and message2 as the reference.
payload:MT_Level1,1,FileNode,1,FileName,1 will do.

Problem in variable substitution
Hi experts,
I need help for a strange problem:
I have a proxy to file scenario in which I create an xml file; I need to use a field of the mapping to create filename.
In Receiver CChannel I have used variable substitution, but in message monitoring I got this error:
Delivery of the message to the application using connection File_http://sap.com/xi/XI/System failed, due to: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: The following variable was not found in the message payload: Folio: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: The following variable was not found in the message payload: Folio.

What is the problem? wrong reference?

FabioHi,
Everything looks fine.
Make sure that there is no extra space after your "%Folio%" under the Variable Substitution.
Make sure that "Adapter Specific message Attributes" is unchecked in the CC.
You can do a change in message mapping to create a header field<occurence: 1> map to a constant and call it in var substitution.
As Mickael suggested above make sure using only lowercase on your variant name %folio% instead of %Folio%.
