Sender Idoc_AAE Adapter for flat file format

I have been given to develop a Scenario where in an Idoc in a flat file (.txt) format needs to be sent from ECC system to a Bank SFTP server . NO ESR objects are involved ,just pick and place .Kindly Explain the configuration on the Sender Idoc_AAE Adapter .

Hi Srinath,
Please refer the below blogs for IDOC_AAE configuration
How to create and configure Sender Idoc AAE Scenario - PI 7.3
refer the below blog for IDOC to file scenario (with IDOC_AAE)
IDOC_AAE To File with all Configurations
to convert IDOC XML to IDOC flat you need to create JCA in NWA. Please refer the below blog

New EDI Implementation - Flat File format for SPSI in eCommerce Gateway

Hi,
we are trying to setup EDI with a business partner, goal is to import a DELFOR message into Oracle Order Management. Plans are: translate the inbound message into the SPSI flat file format, load it through eCommerce Gateway / Release Management into Order Management.
For this purpose I'd like to test to the import of a SPSI flat file into eCommerce Gateway / Release Management, however I have difficulties to get a proper flat file. Is there a way to generate example flat files somehow? I tried to generate my own flat file, based on the Oracle manuals, but how can I be sure that the format is correct (besides of running the import program)? Any advice on this?
Or is there a better way, e.g. through XML files?
Thanks in advance,
David.

Hi, thanks for the response.
Yes I use that report already to get the details of the flat file. But what I am missing is for example which records are repeated, e.g. for every 4000 record, do I need one 0010 record, or can I put multiple 4000 records within one 0010 record?
regards,
David.

Golden Gate for flat file

hi,
I have tried with GoldenGate for Oracle/ non-Oracle databases. Now, I am trying for flat file.
What i have done so far:

Ok, I haven't run your example, but here are some suggestions.

You of course need data captured from somewhere to test with. You could capture changes directly from a database and write those to a trail, and use that as a source for the flat-file writer; or, if you have existing trail data, you can just use that (I often test with old trails, with known data).
In your example, you are using a data pump that is doing nothing more than pumping trails to a remote host. That's fine, if that's what you want to do. (It's actually quite common in real implementations.) But if you want to actually capture changes from the database, then change "add extract ... extTrailSource" to be "add extract ... tranlog". I'll assume you want to use the simple data pump to send trail data to the remote host. And I will assume that some other database capture process is creating the trail dirdat/oo
Also... with your pump "FFE711", you can create either a local or remote trial, that's fine. But don't use a rmtfile (or extfile). You should create a trail, either a "rmttrail" or "exttrail". The flat-file adapter will read that (binary) trail, and generate text files. Trails automatically roll-over, the "extfile/rmtfile" do not (but they do have the same internal GG binary log format). (You can use a 'maxfiles' to force them to rollover, but that's beside the point.)
Also, <ul>
<li> don't forget your "table" statements... or else no data will be processed!! You can wildcard tables, but not schemata.
<li> there is no reason that anything would be discarded in a pump.
<li> although a matter of choice, I don't see why people use absolute paths for reports and discard files. Full paths to data and def files make sense if they are on the SAN/NAS, but then I'd use symlinks from dirdat to the storage directory (on Unix/Linux)
<li> both windows and unix can use forward "/" slashes. Makes examples platform-independent (another reason for relative paths)
<li> your trails really should be much larger than 5MB for better performance (e.g,. 100MB)
<li> you probably should use a source-defs file, intead of a dblogin for metadata. Trail data is by its very nature historical, and using "userid...password" in the prm file inherently gets metadata from "right now". The file-writer doesn't handle DDL changes automatically.
</ul>
So you should have something more like:

Again, use relative paths when possible (the flatfilewriter.dll is expected to be found in the GG install directory). Put the ffwriter.properties file into dirprm, just as a best-practice. In this file, ffwriter.properties, is where you define your output directory and output files. Again, make sure you have a "table" statement in there for each schema in your trails.
Problem I am facing_
I am not sure where to find the generated flat file,
even the reports are showing there is no data at manager process
I am expecting replicat instead of extract at Flatfile FFR711.prm
I have done this much what to do give me some pointers.....The generated files are defined in the ffwriter.properties file. Search for "rootdir" property, e.g.,
goldengate.flatfilewriter.writers=csvwriter
csvwriter.files.formatstring=output_%d_%010n
csvwriter.files.data.rootdir=dirout
csvwriter.files.control.ext=_data.control
csvwriter.files.control.rootdir=dirout
...The main problem you have is: (1) use rmttrail, not rmtfile, and (2) don't forget the "table" statement, even in a pump.
Also, for the flat-file adapter, it does run in just a "extract" data pump; no "replicat" is ever used. The replicats inherently are tied to a target database; the file-writer doesn't have any database functionality.
Hope it helps,

Standardize a flat file format w.r.t OWB

Hi Pat,
or anyone,
Can u help me to standardize a flat file format with respect to OWB?
I have 15 financial source systems. The client agreed in giving the data in csv format. Now I need to standardize the feed file so that it would be easy for me handle it in OWB. Please note depending on my standardization the client would give me the data and in turn it would be easy for me to handle it OWB External Tables. The records size for a single feed file is 1 million. So my questions are
1.How should I standardize a date field in flat file?. Please note target date field is default date in Oracle.
2.How should I standardize an address field? I.e. normally here I have 3 address fields. But I want the output in 1 field. What is the best possible methodology to do this? Or can I handle this issue in OWB front.
3.How should I standardize a feed file name (generic)?
4.How should I standardize a feed file folder (generic)? Please note the folder will reside in UNIX environment. The concept is, there would be respective folders in UNIX and the feed files would automatically fall into these respective folders in a fortnight basis. So what should I do to achieve this? I know I have to write a shell script for the automatic process. If so how will I do this and schedule it.
5.And w.r.t above question, how will I tell OWB to go and fetch the files in those folders. I know it is done while mapping. But my question is Is that the only best way I can achieve it?
6.If I left anything related to feed file, please tell me?
Please note that based on my standardization, the client would extract the data and give it to me. So if I standardize the feed file which would be easy for me to handle it in OWB, then that would be a great success. And also note this is for a long run. Minimum 10 years.
Regards,
rem.

Good afternoon Rem,
It's all very theoretical indeed, talking about standards and all. I'll try to answer some of your questions according to my experiences.
@1, Usually we load flat files into external tables using varchar2-fields only, occasionally number fields; dates however are always loaded into varchar2's and then when reading the external table into the staging area they are converted to Oracle dates using a simple TO_DATE transformation.
@2, I don't think there's a real standard for that, it should simply meet YOUR needs, so when loading EXT into STG simply perform a transformation concatenating those 3 fields to form one.
@5, you have to register the location where you have defined your flat files, this should be some Unix location; after that the connector between EXT and STG will know what to do when running the mappings from EXT to STG (thus: no other action is needed to 'tell OWB' where to fetch data from flat files).
As far as I know there a no standards in naming conventions for files and folders, just go with what seems logical/practical in your situation.
Regards, Patrick

Error in XI Sender JDBC adapter for AS/400 DB2

We are trying to connect to AS/400 DB2 from XI's Sender JDBC Adapter. we got the driver from DataDirect (connectjdbc.jar) and configured it within XI .The configuration according to the manual for this jar file is
// Register the driver with the driver manager
Class.forName("com.ddtek.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver");
// Establish the Connection
String url = "jdbc:datadirect:db2://corpserver1:50000;LocationName=ACCTNG";
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, "test04", "test04");
In XI we configured this as:
Driver = com.ddtek.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver
Connection = jdbc:datadirect:db2://servername;LocationName=NBHAGWAT
and specified the user id and password
Note: The Port Number is optional
When this was done in XI, we got the below error in the Adapter Monitoring:

Flat file format - importing vs typing it out

Hi. I've heard there is a way to import the format (rather that typing it out in connection mgr) of a fixed width flat file. What r the general steps or where is there a set of instructions online? I generally have a txt doc with column
names (lots of them) , widths etc that I would use for import and could easily transfer them to a spreadsheet if necessary. So far the word import is bringing up a lot of unwanted subject matter in my web searches. I am spending a lot
of time typing out flat file formats in conn mgrs and am thinking it may be worth a look at ssis's ability to "import" a format. We generally land our data in "untyped" staging tables 1st so ssis could assume everything is string.
I dont really want to read my records as one long string and parse them later.

thx. I suppose I can write and share with the community some general t-sql that generates the following but would like to know a couple of things.
First, is any old guid ok in each of the places where a guid is indicated? I would generate a new one for each guid.
Second, what is the locale id?
Of course i would only paste the results in a pkg (dtsx file) that doesnt reference the cols (beyond the connection stuff) yet.
What gotchtyas am I looking at if i try this with the intention of pasting the generated code over the top of what ssis already generated (inside the dtsx file) in a one column connector created the usual way?

Hi all,
I am able to generate the PO Idoc in Flat file format using standrad FM IDOC_OUTPUT_ORDERS. but the Flat file appearing is not in a appropriate format.
I'm looking to generate the Flat file in such a way that there will be only one line for each Idoc Segment.( with Line termination).
How to Achieve this.

Flat file formats

What are the flat files formats accepted for import and export in mdm?
How MDM recognize the document type/mapping to perform of incoming file (file name, folder) ?
What are the flat file format for export (delimited, structured, XML) ?
Does MDM handle Header in a flat file (import and export) ?
Does MDM handle several line definition in a flat file (import and export) ?

Hi Joesph,
Here are answers to your questions:
Ans 1--> As previously told by adhappan ,you can import data using import manager from the following formats:
Access--Means From microsoft access
Excel -- From an excel file
ODBC--this is generally used to import data from a flat file.BY flat file i mean to say a tab comma seperated "csv " file or a ".txt "file.
Port--to import data from a port .In mdm, port actually refers to a directrory
XML--from an xml file
XML Schema-- this is used when you try to import data from a file whosr structure you have predefined in console using an xsd file.
Ans 2--> we specify the file format while connecting to source by mentioning it in the type properties.and mapping is performed in the import manager in the map value tab.
Ans 3-->When you import or export a flat file then data in the first line of file is considered as header.
Ans 4 --> As i previously told ,MDM will handle header.
 Ans 5 -->MDM does not handle several line definition of header.
Hope it will help you. Please remark if it really helped you.
Thanks,

HOW MANY TYPES OF FLAT FILE FORMAT

hi gurus......
Basically there r 3 types of flat file format
ASC
DAT
BIN
i am correct or wrong???
what is the difference between these formats?

Hi,
you are right.
This is from the documentation available in GUI_UPLOAD func.module:
'BIN'.
The system reads a binary representation of the internal table from the
file. The data is neither converted nor interpreted in this case.
Usually, reasonable results are obtained only if the internal table
consists of a single column of type 'X'.
'DAT'
The components of the internal table are filled from the file. If the
table contains several columns, the entries in the file must be
separated by tabs. No conversion exits are performed. eg: .TXT with tab delimited
The following applies for the different data types:
I or N or P or F
The numbers must be formatted according to the decimal representation
defined in the user settings.
D
The date must be formatted according to the date format defined in the
user settings.
T
The time must be formatted as hh:mm:ss.
'ASC'.
The components of the internal table are filled from the file. Only
data types with fixed length are allowed. The data must be contained
in the file in its full length. eg: Like ·TXT or ·CSV files

How IE works for flat file

Hi all:
As we all know that, when IE gets a idoc's service name from SLD, then use it with idoc's message type and Idoc type to do receiver determniation, what about flat file ? how can we know its Service name and interface name if there is only a flat file on FTP? how IE works for Flat file ?
Couldn't thank you more

Hi,
For any idoc scenarious, you would use business systems rather than business service which is stored in SLD. So the IE would fetch it from SLD at runtime.
For file based scenarious also, you can create business system as type third party and use the same.
Is that answer your question?

When we go for Flat File creatin

Hi gurus,
When we go for flat file creation.Can any one give me one Scenario with example.
Thanks in advance

Hello Srikar,
How r u ?
We go for flat file in some scenarios like,
1. The source system could not be connected to the BW System (here u could generate a FlatFile)
2. If the Customer asks for a different kind of report (in our case we do FlatFile Creation for a complex time management - Employee Working Time is 1st merged with R/3 data, then we combine both together as 1 FlatFile)
3. Sometimes the customer will give the FlatFile data generated by them
4. We also take FlatFile reports from Data Targers, using InfoSpokes
More scenarios are there,
Best Regards....

Hi,
Yes You can. But at the data source level you have to tick the selection fields, so that at info pack level those fields will be available for selections.
