Splitting file - receiver file adapter

Hi Gurus,
How to split the file at receiver FA. Condition is, if the number of records is more than 1000, I require creating a new file.
regards
Unni

Go to Messages tab in graphical mapping and change the occurrence of target structure to 0..unbounded
Refer
/people/jin.shin/blog/2006/02/07/multi-mapping-without-bpm--yes-it146s-possible
Mapping logic for target root node ...MT_target -
>
You can write UDF to count 1000 source records and after every 1000 records use result.addContextChange(); method
This will produce multiple target nodes
UDF should be of type Queue
Configuration scenario would be as usual except Enhanced Interface Determination. Above blog talks about this also

Empty file receiver - file adapter

Hello,
Scenario: File->XI->File.
In my scenerio, I am using Java mapping to name the target filename and creating text file that is later sent to FTP, in that way I don't have to use content conversation, to save performance...
I am on PI7.1 version so I have checked the options (Processing Parameters) for empty file handling in Sender/Receiver file communication channels.
Issue:- Though the target file is created but it always contain 1 byte(NULL character). Any ideas??
Thanks
Anshul

The java mapping is genarating output as text file,right??have you tested your java mapping in NWDS or eclipse,because when you test in Operation mapping you will get error for text file,because it is not well formed.
if your java mapping genarating text files perfectly then file content conversion not required at all,just give file name in Communication channel.
> I am on PI7.1 version so I have checked the options (Processing Parameters) for empty file handling in Sender/Receiver file communication channels.

Why you have selected empty file handling??it is not required.

Scenario PROXY - SENDER FILE - RECEIVER FILE

Hi Experts,
I need to create a synchronous scenario where the proxy sends the filename to send and PI must transfer the file to a location X. The source file is in a different location of the destination file
This scenario, should this be done through Process Integration?
Thanks,

Hi,
I think you can use a sync/async bridge to do your scenario and you wont need any development outside of using standard modules. The idea is to create a scenario Proxy(sync)-File(Async) -File (Async) without BPM. Check the point 8 in this document http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/80f96dbf-adca-3010-ffb5-daf2d1f0e276?QuickLink=index&…
I have never tested this with the SFTP channel, and i dont know if this adapter supports the RequestOneWayBean and WaitResponseBean modules. May be you should wait to someone that confirms to you the possibility of using this modules with the SFTP adapter.

Adapter file receiver - file with fix length record

Hi everybody,
In the file adapter receiver, I want to create a fixed length record file .
Each record need to have the same size.
How is it possible, because I have a file which contains variable legnth depending of the lenght of message?
exemple:
<mess>
   <row>1234567</row>
   <row>123456789A</row>
</mess>
give the file
1234567<CR>
123456789A<CR>
<CR> means carriage return
and I want a file like
1234567   <CR>
123456789A<CR>
with the same lenth of record (10 in the example).
Can anyone help me, ,please?
Kind regards.
E. Koralewski

Hi Eric,
Create a value user defined function with one input argument a and name it is inputpad. Then add the following code:
Imports: java.*;
while (a.length()<Integer.parseInt("10"))
     a= a +" " ;
return String;
Here I am assuming your fixed length for the field is 10. If it is more or less then change the number. Now in your mapping do all your logic and then in the final add this like:
input ---> your logic --> inputpad udf --> target.

FTP Receiver File adapter -- CRLF In output File in Windows environment.

Hi All,
Idoc to File : Receiver File adapter.
I use the endseparator 'nl' and the output file is coming correctly with NFS and It is not working when we are doing with with FTP.
Tested with NFS (Unix environment)
I used the endseparator 'nl' and the output file is coming with CRLF.
Tested with FTP (Windows environment)
When I tested the same the output file is coming with LF.
I tried by using the module "SAP XI Sample/ConvertCRLFfromToLF" which will convert from LFToCRLF.But it is serving my purpose.
Can anyone please suggest how I can get the CRLF in the file while putting in the output directory which is in windows environment.
Thanks
Seema

Do not mention endSeparator in content conversion parameters...by default XI puts newline as endSeparator
It should work for NFS and FTP on Windows

Receiver FTP Adapter File Size Splitting

Hi,
I am receiving an IDoc from R/3 into XI.
I then map this IDoc into an xml file and use a receiver ftp adapter to drop the files onto a ftp server.
Is there anyway, that I can use the adapter to split the message interface into smaller files. For example, if I were to ftp the message interface into 1 file, the file size would be 1MB. I would like to split the 1 message interface into 4 x 250kb files without having to split the message interface?
Thanks,
Miguel

Hi,
If you split into 4 files each one should be a XML file right?
This is possible without BPM.
Go thro the blog:
/people/jin.shin/blog/2006/02/07/multi-mapping-without-bpm--yes-it146s-possible
Wat u need to do is make the target side 0..unbounded. If u have 100 records, Map some 25 records in first occurence, 25 in second and so on. This way u can reduce file size.

File conversion and append file in receiver file adapter

Hi
I have a batch IDoc -> XI(3.0) -> file scenario with file conversion to create a flat CSV-like file. The problem is that because of the amount of data sent from R/3 (~20000 employees), the idoc is split into several idocs. In my receiver file adapter I want to append all the idocs contained in this data transfer to one flat file, before transmitting to FTP server.
For the next batch transfer (the next day) XI should start all over and create a new file and append all idocs contained in that transfer before transmitting the flat file to FTP server.
Can this be done using the 'Use Temporary File' and 'Append' options in the FTP connection Parameters in the comm-channel?
It is not an option to append the file in the FTP-server, because the files in the destination folder are moved immediately after arrival, so the file will be moved before file adapter can append all the files.
Does anyone have any suggestions to how to solve this?

Adapter Module Filename in File Receiver Channel

Hi All,
is it possible to set the Filename in File Receiver Adapter from Adapter Module?
I know that it is possible to read the data
Channel ch = new Channel(moduleContext.getChannelID());
path = ch.getValueAsString("file.targetDir");
I Need to set the filename in Adapter Module, using of Payload is not possible because Payload is not xml.
Dynamic Parameters in Message Header is not possible because it is an multi mapping process an i need dynamic Filename for each Part
payload after mapping is like
MainDocument
SubMainDocument
MainDocument
SubMainDocument
i need special Name for each SubMainDocument in FileReceiverAdapter

Hello Stefan,
interface mapping is an mapping like this:
outbound_interface => Inbound_Interface1
                             => Inbound_Interface2
                            => Inbound_Interface3
in sxmb_moni this looks like this
Soap_Header
Soap_Body
Payloads
     =>MainDocument ( application/xml )
    => SubMainDocument ( text/xml )
     =>MainDocument ( application/xml )
    => SubMainDocument ( text/xml )
First SubMainElement is routing to FileReceiverAdapeter A   where Filename has to be like "NameA%nr%"
second SubMainElement is routing to FileReceiverAdapeter B   where Filename has to be like "NameB%nr%"
%nr% is som value from the Payload.
Payload is not xml because using of Conversion Argent!!
I Think there is only one Dynamic in Header for all subelements, i have test it!

Email attachment name in sender mail adapter to the receiver file adapter

HI ,
Ths is regarding email to file scenario. I am trying to create file (in rceiver file adapter) with the same name as the email attachment that i read from mail sender adapter. I want ro use adapter module for this. I could find from blogs that there is module - GetAttachmentName - available that i can use for this in sender mail adapter.
Can you please let me know what whetehr i neeed to mention any module key and parameters for this.
I assume , i need to do following steps :Please confirm.
1. i can use this module - after payload swap module and before standard mail adapter module in sender mail adapter
2. select ASMA option in advanced tab in sender mail adapter
3. In receiver file adapter select ASMA option in advanced tab in sender mail adapter
4. Also select file name option in ASMA in sender mail adapter
Thanks,
Vamsi

Hi Vamsi,
your scenario is also described here: Re: sender mail adapter - attachment name
If you use the Module getAttachmentName, which is described here,
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/XI/AdapterModulePI7.0GetAttachmentName
your scenario should work as you described it.
You just need to make sure that the Attachment Name that you read in the first place, is mapped to the Filename Attribute of the
Fileadapter (http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File/FileName).

Variable Substitution File Receiver Adapter

Hi,
I am in the process of implementing a scenario involving the conversion of a .jpg file to .bmp. In my scenario, I'd like to the .bmp file name to be dynamically controlled; therefore, I have used the Variable Substitution option in the File Receiver Adapter.
In both the File Sender & Receiver comm. channels, I have ticked 'Adapter Specific Messsage Attributes' check-box and selected the 'File Name' option.
The File Receiver comm. channel also has the following:
File Name Scheme*: %File_Name%.bmp
Variable Name: File_Name
Reference: message:FileName
Having done the above, I am getting the following error message in Comm. Channel Monitoring:

Receiver file adapter settings

Hi,
I have a scenario in which I need to generate a file in tab delimited format. But in the receiver file adapter configuration we have only text/binary file creation mode. By setting the File Type in TEXT mode will I be able to do a tab de-limited file?? Or is there any other configuration settings need to be done?
-Ken

Hi Amanda,
Thank you so much for the great info. I think I can find some stuff but still it would be helpful if you could forward the doc to [email protected] Also, yeah it looks like the receiving file format would be complex with header and footer. In the content conversion can we specify header and footer?? or is there any other way to define...FYI my source file also contains header and footer..I am just a little confused on how to set up the message types for mapping...
Many thanks..

Error in file receiver adapter (Directory does not exist / cannot be create

I have a NFS reiceiver file NFS adapter with target directory:
10.128.68.38\arbo2000\UploadPinfos\arbodev
if I run this line in windows, windows access to this folder.
Full Error log:
Receiver Adapter v2123 for Party '', Service 'BS_0000_ARBO_DEV':

History:

Can somebody help me please??

Hi Alvaro,
If your XI server is running on Unix platform then you'll get the access only after mounting 10.128.68.38 this system as a drive. This is equivalent to the windows network mapping.
Next thing is that once that is done then you can access the path /arbo2000/UploadPinfos/arbodev by mentioning it in your directory path.
To check whether the above mentioned is the problem then pls do try by doing it with FTP protocol. If it works then for acting as a local directory for NFS you need to mount the drive.
Cheers

How to create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Comm Ch

How do I create an Excel file from XML in the Receiver File Adapter Communication Channel? I have my mapping done and I am outputting the file as a comma delimited csv file. However, the target can only process an Excel file (.xls). How can I generate an Excel in XI?
I saw this blog, but I don't know how to create a XSLT transformation.
/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/12/10/xi-generating-excel-files-without-the-java-nor-the-conversion-agent-not-possible
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Here are the steps I took to create an XSLT transformation in XI 3.0:
1. I created my source and target XSDs using XMLSpy.
2. I created the XSLT mapping from source to target in XMLSpy (referencing the souce XSD schema).
3. I created another XSLT mapping to format the target into Excel XML.
4. Import the source and target XSDs in the IR's External Definitions
5. Zip each XSLT mapping (.xls) and import it into the IR's Imported Archives
6. Reference the XSL mappings in the Interface Mapping

Problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter

Hi All
I have a problem with file content conversion in receiver file adapter.
This is my recordset structure: Header_Record,1,Claim_Record,*,Check_Rec,1
These are the content conversion parameters:
Header_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Header_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Claim_Record.fieldSeparator = ,
Claim_Record.endSeparator = 'nl'
Check_Rec.fieldSeparator = ,
Check_Rec.endSeparator = 'nl'
In SXMB_MONI, i can see that the data is correctly extracted from proxy, and correctly mapped to receiver message, and i see a checkered flag (success).
But, Adapter status is RED with the following error message:
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter '1.fieldFixedLengths' or '1.fieldSeparator' is missing
In communication channel monitoring, i get the following error message:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Channel has not been correctly initialized and cannot process messages
What is going wrong here? Can anyone please tell me?
Thanks

Problem with fixedlenthgs in receiver file adapter

HI,
I am doing XML to flat file scenario and using mutli mapping concept without BPM.
in the receiver file adapter I am using FCC with fixedlengths,then it generated just 3 output files out of nearly 100 source files.the errored one are succcessful in the SXMB_MONI and failing in RWB-->Message moni with waiting status and MDT says that XI_J2EE_ADAPTER_FILE ,Error Code PROCESSING_ERROR .
i tried in SDN and then found something like enable the disablesecurity check box in variable substitution parameters ,then I got 4 files out.
these are my FCC params for all structures:
struc1.fieldFixedLengths
struc1.fixedLengthTooShortHandling
struc1.endSeparator
and I tried with fieldSeparator then it gives successfully all output files.
so,where is the problem?I didnt understand?
any suggestion.
thank you,
regards,
Babu Sri

Bhavesh,
I felt the same way,but assumed that ,in that way fixedlenghths wont work.
in my target structure most of the fields have 0-1 occurences ,and even in the source structure too.so,I think it might be the reason.Then I have to make all my about 60fields 1-1 madatory and using mapWithDefaultValue function, as my sources are optional.
you think it will work just using the "mapWithDefaultValue" function without changing my occurences to 1-1 in the target structure(mandatory)?infact I can try but ,cos of pain for changing like 60 fields....:) and even dont know which fields are causing the problem,so that we can apply "mapWithDefaultValue" function only on those fields.
thank you,
Babu Sri
