Syndicator:Restricting Number of records in a output file

Is there any mechanism by which i could restrict the number of records syndicated to a single output file ?.
Currently the only option seems to be output all records(matching certain criteria) or a single record to XML file/s.

Hi,
You can restrict the search based on the search parameters.
If you want to syndiacte all the data in single XML file the in destination items tab ,
Step 1. Need to select the "Repetable XML Node" for the Main node.
Step 2. In Item Mapping tab Map the Main Table with main node for which you have set the indicator in Step 1.
Hope, I answered you.

OIM Reconcilation - restrict number of records

hey guys,
Currently when i run the trusted recon, i get records from HRMS. Now i want to check whether the number of records which query returns is more than 500.. if its more than 500 then i have to cancel the recon, means i should not bring the updates to OIM. Can i achieve this in OIM?
And also can we make this happen only for the updates for the existing records in OIM and HRMS and not while the process creates new users in OIM for the new user records in HRMS.
Thanks in advance.

Number of records in a flat file

Hi All,
I have a very big file in CSV format to be loaded into BW. When I try to open it to see the number of records, it is giving me a message "File not loaded completely". When I click on OK, it is showing some records, which I presume to be the maximum limit of the excel sheet. Is there anyway I can find the total number of records in this file?
Thanks,
RPK.

Hi RPK,
You can open your file with Access, there you will see all the lines. Another way if you don't have Access is to use the Notepad, there you will be able to see the number of lines using the "status bar" in the display menu.

Thanks and Regards,

hi,
To syndicate all XML records in single XML file:
follow the steps:
1. u201CIn the Destination Items pane, click on the root ( for product repository - Product).
2. u201CIn the Properties pane, for the Repeatable XML Node field, uncheck its u201CInheritu201D flag and check its flag in the u201CValueu201D column as shown below. This will cause all records to be syndicated into one XML file.u201D
3. In the item mapping tab:
In the Source Items page, select the root node,
. u201CIn the Destination Items pane, select the Products node and map it,
and do the remaining source and destination fields mapping,
now you will get all records in single XML file.

Restrict number of records display in BEx

Hi,
I'm getting a "number of rows exceeded in excel" error while running some of the BEx queries.Is there any way to run the whole query with no filters but display the result of only 50000 rows?
Thanks
Srishti Reddy

Hi mathew,
I'm sorry I got stuck with some other issue. Yes sometimes we can see the 50,000 rows but most times it ended with RFC connection error. We solved the problem by extending the roll area in BW.I detected while running the query in RSRT which ended with runtime errors indicating insufficient roll area.
Thanks for the help.

Need to calculate the number of records in an XML file

I need to find out how many records I have in an XML file. The file resides on a unix server and before doing anything with, i need to insert the record count into a separate table. Is there any function or procedure that can achieve this?

does each record start with a new line? if it does a
simple wc -l can help you. If not, you can pre
process this XML file by first removing all the new
line characters using sed and then adding new line
characters after the end tag of the xml using sed and
finally doing a wc -l . this would be a simple shell
script. Not sure if you want to use Unix shell
scripting to achieve this.The sheer nature of XML means that it does not conform to any visual formatting. i.e. An xml file containing...
<employee><empno>3</empno></employee>
is identical in XML terms to...
<employee>
<empno>3</empno>
</employee>
which is also identical in XML terms to...
<employee>
<empno>
3
</empno>
</employee>
which is also identical in XML terms to...
<employee><empno>
3
</empno></employee>
etc.
You cannot rely on the number of CR's or CR/LF's in the file to count the records. Proper XML processing should be used for such a task.

Recording forms session -output file specification?

In Oracle applications you can set the value of ICX Forms Launcher to have the parameter "&record=FILE" and the session will then record the form activity to the file you provided (directory depends on your apps version).
Now there are tools out there to manipulate this file for setting up repetitive data loads however they don't quite meet our needs in one way or another and also the licencing costs for many users can be high. I would therefore like to write a bespoke process that manipulates this file.
I have gained a pretty good understanding of it just by recording different forms sessions and seeing how the file changes, what actions cause various entries in the record file etc.
What I woudl really like though is some kind of technical document which describes the output in this file. Ie, what fields are possible in what column position, just so I don't miss anything out.
I've searched high and low, done a search in Metalink etc and turned up nothing.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks,
John

What OS is running on your PC? I'm having the same issue with a Windows 7 PC, but not with a Windows XP PC.
What I think is happening is that after you hit "Stop" there's a process called "iTutorCleanup" that's run to post-process the .sim file. On a Windows XP machine I can see this running, and I end up with a working .sim file afterwards. I suspect on a Windows 7 PC this cleanup process is failing and that is why the .sim file disappears.
I'm still playing with compatibility mode settings, but haven't found anything yet that makes it all work. If anyone has any suggestions I'd be very grateful!
Thanks,
Steve.

How To Restrict Number Of Rows For Multiple Group In Report Output

Hi ,
I have a requirement to restrict number of rows in report output.I have three different group , if i use same no of rows to restrict then output is as expected but if i want Deduction group should have 7 rows , earning should have 5 rows and Tax group have 3 rows in report output then XML tag is not working.
Below is the XML tag i am using -
First i have declare the variable to restrict the rows -
<xsl:variable name="lpp" select="number(7)"/>
<xsl:variable name="lpp1" select="number(5)"/>
<xsl:variable name="lpp2" select="number(3)"/>
For Each -
<?for-each:PAYSLIP?>
<xsl:variable xdofo:ctx="incontext" name="DedLines" select=".//AC_DEDUCTIONS"/>
<xsl:variable xdofo:ctx="incontext" name="EarLines" select=".//AC_EARNINGS[ELEMENT_CLASSIFICATION!='Taxable Benefits']"/>
<xsl:variable xdofo:ctx="incontext" name="EarTaxLines" select=".//AC_EARNINGS[ELEMENT_CLASSIFICATION='Taxable Benefits']>
<?for-each:$DedLines?><?if:(position()-1) mod $lpp=0?> <xsl:variable name="start" xdofo:ctx="incontext" select="position()"/>
<?if:(position()-1) mod $lpp1=0?><xsl:variable name="start1" xdofo:ctx="incontext" select="position()"/
<?if:(position()-1) mod $lpp2=0?><xsl:variable name="start2" xdofo:ctx="incontext" select="position()"/>
Report output is tabular form (one page has two column - Earning and Deduction ) . Tax group comes below earning group.
Deduction Group -
<?for-each-group:$DedLines;./REPORTING_NAME?><?if:position()>=$start and position()<$start+$lpp?>
<?REPORTING_NAME?>
<?end if?><?end for-each-group?>
Earning Group -
<?for-each-group:$EarLines;./REPORTING_NAME?><?if:position()>=$start1 and position()<$start1+$lpp1?>
<?REPORTING_NAME?>
<?end if?><?end for-each-group?>
Tax Group -
<?for-each-group:$EarTaxLines;./REPORTING_NAME?><?if:position()>=$start2 and position()<$start2+$lpp2?>
<?REPORTING_NAME?>
<?end if?><?end for-each-group?>
Please let me know in case additional detail is require.
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks,
Harsh

variable lpp2 is declare to restrict EarTaxLines -
<xsl:variable name="lpp2" select="number(2)"/>
This will help to restrict the no of rows on one page , if we have more then two tax benefits line then layout will roll over to continuation page.
As part of report output my expectation is if i restrict Earning , Deduction and Tax benefits to same no of line for example - variable lpp ,lpp1 and lpp2 have same value "number(2)" , we can see the layout is continue on next page (restrict every group can have max two lines) .This is the reason we have 4 header grid , deduction and Tax Benefit lines are rolled over to continuation page .But if we restrict different value for each variable then continuation page layout is missing .
When we tried for <xsl:variable name="lpp2" select="number(3)"/> value continuation page layout is not getting generate for both employee number .

How to calculate number of data records in a XML output file

Hi,
After generating a XML output file from Oracle Reports, I want to calculate number of records in the XML file. Is it possible? Specifically, I want to calculate number of records for a group variable ( organization_id, which I use for bursting).
Thanks for the help.

Thanks BIPuser. It is useful for me.
I can use this xsl function within the template. However, I'm also looking to print this in the concurrent request log file. So, outside of rtf template, id there any PL/SQL based XML functions I can use to count the number of records.
Thanks.

SQL Loader: Total number of record read

Hello,
When we use SQL loader to load a data file, the total number of records read is output to the SQL Loader log. Is there a way to output this number to an oracle table?

RFC to XI File - can NEVER EVER get more than one record in Output file.

Hi guys
This might be related to my other post on File conversion but whatever I do I just can't seem to get more than one record in the output file
the payload from R3==> XI seems fine
for example
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC xmlns:rfc="urn:sap-com:document:sap:rfc:functions">
- <IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
- <item>
<CUSTOMERID>1000001</CUSTOMERID>
<COMPANY>One-time ship-to</COMPANY>
<SHORT_NAME>ONE-TIME</SHORT_NAME>
<STREET />
<STREET2 />
<STREET3 />
<STREET4 />
...... more data
</item>
then next customer master data and so on
- <item>
<CUSTOMERID>1000005</CUSTOMERID>
<COMPANY>ddfask</COMPANY>
<SHORT_NAME>;LK;L</SHORT_NAME>
<STREET />
<STREET2 />
<STREET3 />
<STREET4/>
etc etc until
<HKUNNR>60000</HKUNNR>
<SALES_REGION />
</item>
</IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER>
</rfc:Z_XI_005_RFC>
All I get on the Output target file
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns1:MT_customer_header xmlns:ns1="http://avenue.com/xi/test">
<CustomerId>1000001</CustomerId>
<company>One-time ship-to</company>
<shortname>ONE-TIME</shortname>
.... more data
</ns1:MT_customer_header>
the <item> and subsequent records all seem to have vanished.
I must be doing something PARTICULARLY stupid as nobody else ever seems to have this problem -- I've tried almost every possible combination but still to no avail
The function module is passing a table to XI in the correct structure and the payload seems to be fine so what on earth is broken here !!!,.
Cheers
Jimbo

Thanks everybody -- it's working now
RFC call was passing data correctly
function z_xi_005_rfc.
""Local interface:
*" TABLES
*" IP_CUSTOMER_HEADER STRUCTURE ZAP_CUSTOMER_INFO_2
endfunction.
in debug mode table data was fine -- in this instance 3 records were being passed.
3 errors in mapping etc fixed (with help from SDN - thanks)
1) missing the ITEM level in the Data type (hence mapping)
2) needed 0:unbounded in the occurrence
3) also mapping Item====>Item was missing (sub fields were ok)
Points awarded
final file output ok output now ok (with 3 fields only for testing)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
- <ns1:MT_customer_header xmlns:ns1="http://avenue.com/xi/test">
- <item>
<Customerid>1000001</Customerid>
<company>One-time ship-to</company>
<shortname>ONE-TIME</shortname>
</item>
- <item>
<Customerid>1000005</Customerid>
<company>ddfask</company>
<shortname>;LK;L</shortname>
</item>
- <item>
<Customerid>1000010</Customerid>
<company>One Time Customer Test</company>
<shortname>SADFIWQEFG</shortname>
</item>
</ns1:MT_customer_header>
Now only the final problem to make file content conversion work.
Once again thanks --sometimes what seem trivial or simple problems take AGES to fix until someone else gives you a clue --that's why boards like SDN are great value.

Need a relative sequence (count of record) in an input file in ESB input fi

I am using ESB to pick up text files and pass them to a stored procedure. I have multiple variable length records in the file. I pass each record to the
output file adapter, along with the input filename. I would also like to get a relative record number for each record within the file. I use an xsd file
to convert the input to XML. The entire file is at the root level, each record is an element. Is there a way to get a relative count of each element?
Here is the xsd file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>
<xsd:schema xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:nxsd="http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/nxsd"
targetNamespace="http://TargetNamespace.com/Filein"
xmlns:tns="http://TargetNamespace.com/Filein"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
attributeFormDefault="unqualified" nxsd:encoding="ASCII" nxsd:stream="chars" nxsd:version="NXSD">
<xsd:element name="Root-Element">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="C1" minOccurs="1" maxOccurs="unbounded">
<xsd:complexType>
<xsd:sequence>
<xsd:element name="C1" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="terminated" nxsd:terminatedBy="${eol}" nxsd:quotedBy=""">
</xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:sequence>
</xsd:complexType>
</xsd:element>
</xsd:schema>


I need to map the relative record number to a field in the output.
Is there a function similar to the get filename that would return this value to me?
<xsl:value-of select='ehdr:getRequestHeader("/fhdr:InboundFileHeaderType/fhdr:fileName","fhdr=http://xmlns.oracle.com/pcbpel/adapter/file/;")'/>
I use this in the xsl file to get the file name .

does each record start with a new line? if it does a
simple wc -l can help you. If not, you can pre
process this XML file by first removing all the new
line characters using sed and then adding new line
characters after the end tag of the xml using sed and
finally doing a wc -l . this would be a simple shell
script. Not sure if you want to use Unix shell
scripting to achieve this.The sheer nature of XML means that it does not conform to any visual formatting. i.e. An xml file containing...
<employee><empno>3</empno></employee>
is identical in XML terms to...
<employee>
<empno>3</empno>
</employee>
which is also identical in XML terms to...
<employee>
<empno>
3
</empno>
</employee>
which is also identical in XML terms to...
<employee><empno>
3
</empno></employee>
etc.
You cannot rely on the number of CR's or CR/LF's in the file to count the records. Proper XML processing should be used for such a task.

IDOC-File - records in Idoc to file based on some condition

Hello experts,
I have a idoc to file scenario. the incoming Idoc can have multiple records in it and i have to map these records to a csv file. Now the problem is not all records has to be mapped to the file. Based on the value of a perticular file (which is not root), i need to decide if the entire record has to be processed or not. Like the idoc structure is say:
IDOC
   E1WPA01            0....9999
      E1WPA04         0...99
          KONDART     0..1
Now for all valid E1WPA01 where the value of KONDART equals to some spacified value (known) , there has to be one record in the target csv file.
How can this be done at the root level?
One way of doing is we give empty values in the target file where the condition of KONDART is not fulfilled. Say if there are 10 records of E1WPA01 and only 4 satisfies the condition, we will ahve 10 records in the output file but only 4 records will have value and the rest 6 will be blank like (,,,,,,,). But I dont want this. I want only 4 records in the output file.
I tried mapping like this:
E1WPA01----
>Advanced -
> Root
E1WPA04-KONDART---->UDF
The problem i am facing here is if 4 records fulfill the condition, the first 4 are taken and the revelent 4.
Please help.
Regards,
Yash

Hi Chirag,
I wrote the following code in UDF:
for(i=0;i<a.length;i++)
if(a{i}.equals("Specified Values"))
result.addValue("a{i}");
else
result.addValue(ResuktList.SUPPRESS);
And its working partially. I mean the queue of the UDF looks like
1. AAAA                      SUPPRESS
2. <Specified value>     <Specified value>
3. AAA                        SUPPRESS
4. AAA                        SUPPRESS
5. AAA                        SUPPRESS
6. AAA                        SUPPRESS
7. <Specified value>     <Specified value>
8. AAA                        SUPPRESS
9. AAA                        SUPPRESS
and it creates 2 ROOT nodes. But the root nodes are created for line 2 and line 8 insteed of 7.
What can be problem??

How to restrict number of Data Records from Source system?

Hi,
How can I restrict the number of Data records from R3 source system that are being loaded into BI. For example I have 1000 source data records, but only wish to transfer the first 100. How can I achieve this? Is there some option in the DataSource definition or InfoPackage definition?
Pls help,
SD

Hi SD,
You can surely restrict the number of records, best and simplest way is, check which characteristics are present in selection screen of InfoPackage and check in R3, which characteristics if given a secection could fetch you the desired number of records. Use it as selection in InfoPackage.

Pankaj
