Using File Content Conversion

Hi
My source is like -,-,-,-,a,b,c like this.
and here -,-,-,- means white spaces.
If i do one to one mapping..should i get the same target as same with spaces
Regards,
YRaj.

Yes that is correct if you do one to one mapping then as long as the elements come in the source structure you will have the nodes in the target structure.
To ensure this you could also use a mapwithdefault funstion and simply put a space in there
let me know if this helps

Hi,
Like correctly pointed by JaiShankar, the Sender File Adapter currently does not supoort such stracutures.
the strcuture supported is described in this link,

Could some one help me in resolving this issue.
Regards
Praveen

Hi Praven,
couldn't you simply modify your target DATA type so it will be easier to handle?
For example something like:
<Header>
</Header>
<Record>
<Material>
<Number>..</Number>
<quantity>..</quantity>
<quantity>..</quantity>
</Material>
In this way file content conversion will be easier (easy)!

Hi Ajay,
your message mapping failed.
Copy the XML message from monitoring and exectute the mapping in Integration Builder with maximal trace to get the reason.

Hi,
Try to handle this with the context in the mapping.
I think your mapped xml will look like this-
<i>100ABCDEF 043000096 0603201321
200000000
40010016020059332 0 00000000 010424400
40010016010059347 0 00000000 000008250
40010016010059347 0 00000000 000008260
50000000640672060320ABCDEF 043000096
600100100220887000311003510300958527437215 BAMBERGER POLYMERS
700100206430530603200010022088700
80010030643053060320000100220887009
9000010</i>
SO this is because of context problem. All similar nodes are grouped in the Message Mapping.
1) For this you can try with Context Handling - i.e using RemoveContext,SPlity value functions etc in the message mapping.
2) Another way use XSLT mapping here. In this case it will be easier, because you just need to read the input xml as it is and produce the same.
3) One more thing, your input xml looks as if is the output xml. Is it required to have mapping here? If there is no transformation required, then you can do without any mapping, and you will get the required output as it is ..

Error in Receiver File adapter using File content Conversion

Hi,
I am getting the following error in the receiver file adapter.
Conversion initialization failed: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found: Parameter 'statement.fieldFixedLengths' or 'statement.fieldSeparator' is missing
I am using the below parameters for FCC:
Recordset Structure - statement
statement.endSeparator - 'nl'
statement.fieldSeparator - '0X09'
statement.fieldNames -xblnr,wrbtr,newbs,kostl,newko,prctr,xref1,rke_wwfud,rke_wwst3,blart,bukrs,bldate,budat,gjahr,monat,ctype,waers,bktxt,posnr,wbs_element,mwxkz,businessplace,businessplace,c_waers,c_wrbtr,g_ctype,g_waers,g_wrbtr,h_ctype,h_waers,h_wrbtr,trade_id,lob,sgtxt,zuonr,reason_rev,ldgrp,tcode,lifnr
ignoreRecordsetName - true
Please let me know where i am going wrong.
Thanks,
Aparna

Hi Aparna,
I feel the problem in your content conversion parameters is with
statement.fieldNames and ignoreRecordsetName
When you are confirguring receiver file adapter for file content conversion the above one is not required. Please refer below link for details on configuring content conversion in file adapter
[http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/bc/bb79d6061007419a081e58cbeaaf28/frameset.htm]

Problem using file content conversion

I want to generate a input message with no recordset and root element
It just contains one element like below:
<line>AI0 AXXX-001 20089830 120</line>
<line>AI0 AXXX-002 20089830 120</line>
What properties I need to setup in file content conversion to get this format message?
The data inside <line> comes from a txt flat file.
Please help
Thanks
Gopal

Hi,
Root element can be ignore by using FCC property Recordset Name i.e ignoreRecordsetName: true
If you set the parameter to true, the <Recordset> element is not inserted.
Recordset Name defines the root node under which rest of the XML will be created. If not required ignore.
As Recordset Structure is a mandatory parameters, So I'm not sure how you ignore it.
Abid!

How to enbble file contenct conversion to get txt file.
Need a detial view of this scenario.
Please help.

Hi,
Get the target file structure format from the system or applicaiton which wants to use this data...
Based on this create message type in ESR and then configure the FCC parameters in the file adapter ..
if the structure is available and based on that want to know FCC ..then post the same some one here can help..
based on your requirement structure needs to be implemented and mapping as well

Error in File to JDBC Scenario using File Content Conversion.

Hi ,
I am sending a text file in CSV format, with all the configurations done in the sender and receiver channels.
But the adapter monitoring says this:
Initialization error: Conversion initialization failed with java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: java.lang.Exception: Error(s) in XML conversion parameters found:
Parameter 'EmployeeDetails.fieldFixedLengths' or 'EmployeeDetails.fieldSeparator' is missing
Consistency check: no. of arguments in 'EmployeeDetails.fieldFixedLength' does not match 'EmployeeDetails.fieldNames' (0 <> 6)
One thing to note here is that
1. EmployeeDetails.fieldSeparator is given as ','
2. I haven't used any fieldFixedLengths.
Pointers in this regard would be higly appreciated.
Regards,
Younus

cross check if you have specified EmployeeDetails.fieldFixedLengths and EmployeeDetails.fieldSeparator. only one must be used.
in case you have already specified,
EmployeeDetails.fieldSeparator as ',' , then delete that line and reenter the details again, activate and run the scenario.

Complex file content conversion in case of CSV file

Hi Friends,
What you see below is generated from Excel i.e excel file saved as CSV file. This file i need to map in XI.
Problem is i have to take only the data and not the header part.
for e.g in this particular line
Employee ID          :,,E00315
I need only E0315 and not the header value. Similarly i have to find some solution to map all the required data.
Please suggest me how to use file content conversion in such scenarios.
Solution is required on top priority. Points will be immdly rewarded.
Thanks & Regards

File Content Conversion - Receiver Adapter

Hi To All
I have an XML Structure
<LIST>
     <Seg1>
          <Element1>123</Element1>
     </Seg1>
     <Seg2>
          <Element1>ABC</Element1>
          <Element2>DEF</Element2>
          <Element3>GHF</Element3>
        </Seg2>
<LIST>
I'm using File content conversion in receiver Adapter
I want my output like this.
ABCDEFGHF
I don't need the Segment Seg1.
In my parameters RecordsetStructure only I have Seg2 and the details for this Segment
but When I receive a file, the adapter convert with segment 1.
123
ABCDEFGHF
can you help me?.

easiest alternative is mentioned here already, drop it in the mapping.
You can also try to write a java pgm and invoke it as an OS command. that cuts the segment1 out before passing it to content conversion. ..more painful..but will work.

File is not creating on the Receiver for File Content Conversion

Hi,
i have created a scenario with this blog
/people/shabarish.vijayakumar/blog/2006/02/27/content-conversion-the-key-field-problem
for sender side i am using File Content Conversion to read .txt file and on receiver side i need xml file i have done that.
when i placed the file in the sender folder it gets picked up and i checked in Communication Channel monitporing in Runtime WorkBench it is processed Successfully. but no XML File is created on the Receiver side. i am unable to see the messages on SXMB_MONI also.
Please suggest some ideas to solve this.
Thanks,
Giridhar.C

Hi Giridhar.
unable to see the messages on SXMB_MONI also
If the file got picked and in Communication Channel monitoring RWB you can see that it is processed without any errors ,, then i feel it should come in come.Please check the Audit log in RWB, there you can see the error message if any.
Please check the connection parameters in FTP and make sure that the same sender folder is
not being used by any other scenario.If you have done any recent changes then do a cache refresh .
Please post if you see any error in content conversion.

Hi Rajesh,
There are lot of blogs which explain File Content Conversion in different scenarios:-

Trailing spaces problem during file content conversion

I have developed a proxy to file scenario.And am using file content conversion for creating the file. The file is to be a fixed length file.
File Structure
<Header>
<Item>
<Item Trailer>
<File Trailer>
Each tab in the file has the last character mapped to spaces.
Eg: Header00000001 2006011700000000020060<blank   space>
Item00000001        2006011700000000020060<blank   space>
The problem is that during file content conversion. XI does not preserve trailing spaces at the end of the line i.e.if a particular line in the file ends with space. It terminates the line at the last non-space character (in this case at 060).
However we are required to maintain these trailing spaces at the end of each line.
I have tried preserve white space in data type that does not work.
I know that xslt mapping may solve the problem but I am looking for a workaround with my current graphical mapping.
Looking for suggestions !!
Thanks,
Rashida

Hi,
I have the problem quite opposite to this where we are getting the trailing spaces at end of each record which should not come.
File structure is
<Record>
- <Data>
<Content>11/09/2007@210@ZACSL007@GBB-56436@PS01@29@1044@19@646@0</Content>
</Data>
</Record>
............. n records
<Header>
<File_Name>UK01</File_Name>
</Header>
Record structure in communication channel used is
Header, Data
Data.fieldFixedLengths     1024
Data.addHeaderLine     0
Header.addHeaderLine     0
Header.fieldFixedLengths     0
Header.fixedLengthTooShortHandling     Cut
Data.fixedLengthTooShortHandling     Cut
Header.endSeparator     '0'
Actually if the length of record is less than 1024, rest of the length is being filled with spaces which should not occur.
Many advanced thanks.

plz help me ASAP.
thanks and regards,
Varun Joshi

Hi Varun...
Regarding ur error.....the name and password u send in csv is not getting recognised.. so u have to check the data type structure.
there must be a recordset name and subelement must be recordset structure..the data type must be
<datatypename>
      <recordsetname>
           <recordsetructurename>
              <name>
               <password>
please try in this format and ur name and password will get recognised
