Sender File ContentConversion for 5 levels.

Hi Friends,
I got a peculiar requirement.
My scenario is flat file to Idoc.
The main problem is on the source side we have 5 levels to handle.
Pls give some suggestions how to handle if we have more than 3 levels.
Regards,
Jeevan.

are you talking about creating a 5 level hierarchy with the file adapter?
if that is so then please note that it is not possible. you can only create a flat XML for eg.
<recordset>
<NameA>
<field-nameA1>field-value</field-nameA1>
<field-nameA2>field-value</field-nameA2>
<field-nameA3>field-value</field-nameA3>
</NameA>
<NameB>
<field-nameB1>column-value</field-nameB1>
<field-nameB2>column-value</field-nameB2>
<field-nameB3>column-value</field-nameB3>
</NameB>
</recordset>
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/2c/181077dd7d6b4ea6a8029b20bf7e55/content.htm
you will have to use a java or XSLT mapping to create the hierarchy for you.

File change for highest level page home page

file change for highest level page home page
When I got these files
I would type server/mywork/bkb
These files are in the server under the folders mywork/bkb
When I type server/mywork/bkb
The my index page would show up
That’s fine.
Now, I created a page called highestpage.cfm
The purpose is for me to put the link myindex.cfm and it
works fine.
But my problem that I am really still confused is
It will show up when I type server/mywork/bkb/ myindex.cfm
But my goal is not to type that far off.
I just want to type I type server/mywork/bkb/ without
myindex.cfm
And still will lead me to I type server/mywork/bkb/
myindex.cfm
Just like the earlier version
server/mywork/bkb that lead me to myindex.cfm
but only now will lead me to highestpage.cfm
I hope I am expressing my self correctly.
Thanks for understanding

If I understand your situation correctly, you can accomplish
this by setting the default web page names in your web server,
whatever that might be - Apache, IIS, etc. The web server will have
some default file names (web pages) that it will serve if no
specific file is requested. this is often index.html, index.cfm,
etc. You want to add myindex.cfm to that list.

Can we schedule sender file channel for every 2 hrs??

Hi all,
I want to run sender channel for every 2hrs. i searched in Availability Timings but there is no such facility to schedule the channel for every 2 hrs
There is an option to schedule the channel on daily basis and for how much duration time it should run.
This won't work in my case
please share your thoughts...

Hi RP,
>>in the configuration of CC sender file --> poll interval(secs) = 7200. this value is equals to 2hs
problem solved right?
Good Idea, but the problem here is a i explained above this is combination of 2 interfaces
1) Idocs will be triggered every 2 hrs in ECC and records will be appended to single file on XI Shared drive.This is one interface
2) Another Interface is to pick up the appended big file From XI Shared drive to FTP Server.
EX:
If all Idocs triggered at 1:30pm from ECC----all records will be appended to single file suppose by 1:31pm
Now in second interface i gave poll interval as 7200 and activated at 1:40pm, so the file will be picked up at 1:40pm
So this frame of time interval continues smoothly like next job is ecc will run at 3:30pm and appends to file by 3:31pm there by second interface will pick up at 3:40pm. This is the correct way of execution
PROBLEM: In this process, If my PI server is down at 2:00pm and is up at 4:11pm, there won't be any problem with first interface.my second interface starts from 4:11pm(server up time) onwards and keep polling for every 2 hrs from there onwards. so my total time frame is collapsed .

Sending Error mail for Interface level Failure

Dear SDN,
I have a requirement where i cannot use alerts or ccms. My scenario is to devlop a monitoring solution where if any messages fails due to whatever reason i need to send 2 emails to the sapxi admin and to the business informing the error.
The error has to be identified by tracing the status of the messages in sxmb_moni. So what can be a fesible solution given that alerts can not be used. Can writing a report to extract the messages in error and call a function module to send email ??
Thanks and regards,
Anirban.

Hi Anirban,
IF you debug SXMB_MONI, you will get the function module that extracts this data which is stored in table.
This will give you only the SXMB_MONI errors. Not the adapter errors.
For the adapter errors, you can raise alert and and then retrieve the data from the table in your same report.

How to pick files from multiple directories via Sender File Adapter?

Hi guys,
I have a scenario File to IDOC. The Sender File Adapter has to take all files: .xml from Source directory E://Current/.
Actually directories are like
E:/Plant1/Current/
E:/Plant1/History/
E:/Plant2/Current/
E:/Plant2/History/.
Can I have one Sender File Adapter to pick all *.xml files
from
E:/Plant1/Current/ and
E:/Plant2/Current/ and how can I write it in Source Directory of Communication Channel?
Or do I have to have a Sender File Adapter for each Plant?
Any suggestion please?
Kind regards,

Communication channel - Sender File Adapter - File Encoding

Hello colleagues,
I'm using a sender file adapter to send flat files to the IE for further mapping and transformation @runtime. The flat files which are received by the file adapter are based on two different codepages:
-> MS-DOS Codepage 437
-> Windows Codepage 1252.
Do you know by chance which kind of file encoding I have to set in the configuration of the respective sending file adapter for these two code pages?
For the windows codepage 1252 I'm using the file encoding ISO-8859-1, which works quite fine. However, for the input files based on codepage MS-DOS 437, I do not know which kind of file encoding to use. If anyone could help me with that issue, I would be very glad.
Best regards
Stefan

Advance select for source file in Sender File Adapter

Hi
I am trying to utilise the parameter 'Advance Selection for source file' on a sender file adapter to pick the file from multiple folders
My problem is that this parameter that is listed on the SAP help is not getting in File accessing Parameters.
I am running PI 7.02 (NW702_07_Rel)
Service pack 07
Has anyone come across this before?
any suggestions on how to do this?

Hi,
In PI7.0 the property exists. I have used it previously. I think SP was 13.

I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

I have 2 iCloud accounts. Can I delete one account so I can make use of additional space I purchased for the secondary account? Also iPhoto seems to only connect to the primary account? How do I send files to the secondary account?

Both accounts are completely independent from each other. In order to use the space that you have purchased for your secondary account, you must change it to become your primary account. Yes, as you said, services like photo stream only work with the primary account. Unfortunately, there is no comfortable way to just transfer data from one account to another one, but you can do it via a third party application e.g. via Dropbox: e.g. for photos: photos stored with your current primary account > manual transfer to dropbox > after you made your secondary account to the primary account, transfer the photos back to your new primary account etc.

Required Changes in FCC Paramenters for Sender File Adapter.

Hi
I am Doing File-File Scenario.I am using FCC in the Sender File Adapter. I have defined the structure as below.
My Source Structure
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ns0:MT_Source xmlns:ns0="http://city.net/filecopy">
   <Message>
      <Id>123</Id>
      <Head>
         <Id>123</Id>
         <Filename>test.xml</Filename>
      </Head>
      <Body>Helloworld</Body>
   </Message>
</ns0:MT_Source_FILE>
So for the above structure, I have defined the FCC Parameters as
Document Name: MT_Source (Message Type)
Document Namespace:http://city.net/filecopy(Namespace)
Recordset Name: Message (root node)
Recordset Structure: Message,1,Head,1
Recordset Sequence: Ascending
Recordsets per message:1
Keyfield Type: string
In the Table Rows I have defined
Message.fieldFixedLengths: 3,10
Message.fieldNames: Id, Body
Message.fieldSeparator: ,
Message.endSeparator: 'nl'
Head.fieldFixedLengths: 3,8
Head.fieldSeparator: ,
Head.endSeparator: 'nl'
Head.fieldNames: Id, Filename.
My Input Text file
123,Helloworld
123,text.xml
I am Getting Output as
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <ns:MT_Source xmlns:ns="http://city.net/filecopy">
- <Message>
- <Message>
<Id>123</Id>
<Body>HelloWorld</Body>
</Message>
- <Head>
<Id>123</Id>
<Filename>test.xml</Filename>
</Head>
</Message>
</ns:MT_Source>
I should get Body field after Head Structure as in the Source Structure, So Please what changes do I need to do in the Parameters Specified above to get the desired Output.
So How should I define the FCC Paramenters For Sender File Adapter ?
Any Help Would be Appreciated.
Regards,
Varun

Hi Everyone,
I could Succeed to some extent.
I have defined the parameters as follows
Recordset Structure: Message,*,Head,1
Key Field Name: KZ

Read uniquely named file. Sender File Adapter unsuitable for synchronous

Hi All,
We have a requirement to read a specific file that has a unique name based on a transaction ID. The transaction ID will be passed from the source application.
The communication is required to be synchronous. There could be multiple requests/files generated and present at the directory at any given time but each corresponding to a specific transaction ID. If the file is not yet generated for that transaction ID we return back an error to the calling system.
I think we can not use Sender File Adapter - because of the dynamic naming and also because we have to return a synchronous response back depending on the file availability. i.e. We can not have a defined pattern in the file name nor can we specify a wild card as there could be more than one files in the location.
In theory we could use the File Sender adapter to read all the files in the directory and a BPM with correlation set based on the transaction ID and let the process wait for the request. But as far as possible I want to avoid this unnecessary wait or extra demand on the system. More so because the files could get big.
If I were using a tool like SAP Business Connector or webMethods then I would I used a readFile Java service and given it a filename to return the required bytes in a synchronous read.
Is something like this possible in XI? If someone has written a synchronous Java to read file can they share the code? Or do you suggest I write a ABAP server proxy to read the file? The problem however will be how do we map the data to a XML within the code.
All suggestions welcome. There has to be a simple and effective solution to this mundane requirement !
Wishing all SDNers a bright start to this new year,
Thanks,
Charu

"The transaction ID will be passed from the source application so we know what file to pick"

Hi,
You could make the scenario a little simple and avoid custom development if the logic can be put into scripts(out of XI).
Say all the files are coming into a directory called D1.
Here, you could use a script to arrange all these in an order (say ascending) and move the first file into another directory D2.
The sender file adapter would poll this directory D2. The adapter can have a wild card character for the filename field now.
Once the file is in XI, you could check this against the transactionId present(I am not sure how you get this though!), and determine whether to send a mail, or to send a file back.
Here, I have assumed that there is somekind of order present in the files placed in the directory D1.
Again, this is just a suggestion.. I might be wrong with all the assumptions.

Smitha.

"Always Open In..." View Options for Root Level of a Disk Image File

I ran into a problem/bug tonight that I can't find listed anywhere and was wondering if anyone else has encountered it. I am using Snow Leopard (now 10.6.1), upgraded from the last revision of Leopard.
I create DVD-R sized disk images with Disk Utility (using "Mac OS Extended" only w/o Journaling) for saving downloaded files. Because of the number of files on this disk, I create single-letter folders (for alphabetical filing) and set up these disk images to "Always Open In List View". For the individual folders, I can set these to "Always Open In List View" without a problem. However, for the "root level" of these disk images, I can only access "Always Open In Icon View" no matter which view option is selected.
For previously created disk images that were already set to "Always Open In List View", these show the previously set "List View" at the disk image "root level" as expected. But if I uncheck the box, it immediately goes to "Always Open In Icon View". And like before, no matter which view option is selected, I can never get back to "Always Open In List View". Note also that I can set this option as expected for "root levels" of real disks - this only seems to be a problem with the disk image files.
I had no problems at all with this under Tiger or Leopard. I've only run into this now under Snow Leopard. The upgrade tonight to 10.6.1 hasn't seem to affect this problem.
So should I be doing something differently now to get this option to reappear, a possible conflict with something on my computer or is this a bug with Snow Leopard? Can anyone else duplicate this issue?

Additional info, in case anyone is running into this issue...
If I do the following with the "root level" of the disk image, I can set the "Always Open in List View" option.
1. Open the "root level" view of the disk image - for me, it always opens in icon view. Then, select "Show View Options" from the View menu.
2. Check the "Always Open in Icon View" box. While leaving this dialog open, select "as List" from the View menu.
3. Uncheck the "Always Open in Icon View" box. It will instantly turn into "Always Open In List View". Recheck this box immediately, then close dialog. This will make the setting stick.
I've been able to repeat this situation several times. I might be wrong, but it sure acts like a small bug to me. Hope this helps anyone else who might have encountered this issue.

File content Conversion Issuse for a Sender File Adapter

Hi All ,

<HEADER>
      <DATA1>

     <DATA3>

30,soda,4
40,soda,5
10002,20081902,US
10,steel,1
30,steel,4
40,steel,5
how to pick this file using FCC from sendere flat file adapter without keyfields , and i can use fixed length also

Sridhar,
You can use a work around like this. Create a generic Data Type something like below.
<Message Type>
   <Recordset> - root node
      <ROW> - element with occurence 0..unbounded
Now create an outbound MI with the above MT, in FCC in sender file adapter, give Recordset structure as ROW, *
This way , you will read the entire file inside XI as an XML like below
<ROW> header record </ROW>
<ROW> item record 1 </ROW>
<ROW> item record 2 </ROW>
<ROW>....</ROW>
In XI , since your header row & item rows are fixed length, now, you can use that in a UDF in your message mapping , or parse the xml using DOM parser in Java mapping, you should be good. Hope this helps.
