Variable Substitution at communicaiton channel

Hi,
Currently my file schema is
TO%xi_output%.txt
where xi_output refers to transfer order field.
My client wants additionally warehouse number to be mentioned.
should my file schema be like this
TO%xi_whse%%xi_output%.txt
or
TO%xi_whse xi_output%.txt
Please advise me in this regard where xi_whse refers to warehouse number
Regards,
B.Anandh

  • Communication channel - Variable Substitution error,.

    Hi,
    I am having the following mesage type used in messag emapping as a target structure
    mt_data
       -> Variable1
    I am having a validation on mt_data node in message mapping for generating it, if condition is satisfied mt_data will be generetaed. Under mt_data i am having a variable. This variable is getting populated with some data using normal source to target mapping.
    I am using this variable in my communication channel as a variable substitution, and is used to replace file name.
    The issue I am facing is, when the mt_data fails to get generated (valid reason, since validation to generate it failed), communciation channel in RWB fails saying variable for substitution not found.
    Kindly advice.
    Thanks,
    Mudita

    The issue I am facing is, when the mt_data fails to get generated (valid reason, since validation to generate it failed), communciation channel in RWB fails saying variable for substitution not found.
    1) make a check on the variable in receiver determination itself...so that if fails then the message stops in Receiver determination itself....why to take it forward till channel and then fail.
    2) Make use of some constant term to fill the variable in the mapping if the validation fails.....this will help to put value in the variable even when the validation fails and the message does not fail in channel...filename created.
    You need to check with the functional people on how they want the message prcessing to occur when the variable cannot be created by the mapping logic.

  • Comm Channel Variable Substitution - Use of wildcards to reference payload

    Hi!
    I am building a solution to write out tagged / XML IDOCs to a file adapter. I am using variable substitution to build the file name to include the message type, sending partner etc... in the target directory and filename.
    Is there a way to wildcard nodes in the variable substitution? For example:
    <i>Currently</i>
    payload:WMMBID01,1,IDOC,1,EDI_DC40,1,RCVPRN,1
    <i>Desired</i>
    payload:*,1,IDOC,1,EDI_DC40,1,RCVPRN,1
    where * is any wildcard.
    Reason is that we have multiple IDOC types and I want to avoid having to create multiple communication channels.
    Help appreciate and rewarded. Many thanks, Duncan.

    Hi Duncan !
    You can create the desired target filename and target directory by using dynamic configuration via java UDF in mapping. This allows you to create a target filename and/or directory based on a string..then you could use only one comm channel.
    to access info:
    // access dynamic configuration
          DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) param.get(
              StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
    DynamicConfigurationKey KEY_FILENAME = DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","<b>FileName</b>");
          // read value
          String Filename = conf.get(KEY_FILENAME);
    // to write value:
    conf.put(KEY_FILENAME, "MyNewFileName");

  • Variable Substitution in Receiver File Channel

    Hi All,
    Could you kindly help me with this?
    Mine is File to File Scenario. ECC drops a XML file in AL11 directory and i send that file using FTP to a third party system. There is no mapping involved and i use ICO. I need to get a value from the payload dynamically for using it in my file name.
    When i tried to use Variable Substitution Method i get this error : VariableDataSourceException: Caught SAXException while parsing XML payload: Content is not allowed in prolog.
    This is the reference i have given in my variable substitution : payload:customerelement,1,customer,1,sender,1,dealercode,1
    and my XML structure is as below and i am trying to access the dealercode field in the XML.
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    -<ns0:CustomerElement xmlns:ns0="http://www.xxxxxx.com/customer">
    <recordCount>34</recordCount>
    <Customer>
    <Sender>

    <dealerCode>N050</dealerCode>
    <DMSSystem>ABC</DMSSystem>
    <DMSReleaseNumber>1.0</DMSReleaseNumber>
    </Sender>

    Hi Amit,
    Yeah that is correct. But in my case the XML structure was not properly formed and i hwas frequently getting this error " Content is not allowed in Prolog" for which i tried all the solutions in SDN and nothing worked out. So i had no other option and had to go for adapter module.
    Now the issue is solved and the interface is working as expected with the adapter module.
    Thanks for your valuable inputs.

  • Error-Receiver File Adapter using Variable substitution when file is empty

    XI Experts,
    We are on PI 7.0, SP14.
    We are using variable subtitution to get the filename from source message. This works fine as long as we have data in the payload for filename element. But we have a scenario where we don't have to create file when certain condition does not exists in source message so in the message payload filename element will not exists in such condition and file will be empty and we should not create file.
    Parameter in the communication channel for Handling empty message is "Ignore".
    Does anyone knows how to handle this scneario. We don't want to default any file name in the message mapping if source file name element does not exists.
    We are following getting error in the Adapter engine.
    MP: Exception caught with cause com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: The following variable was not found in the message payload: file: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.varsubst.VariableDataSourceException: The following variable was not found in the message payload: file

    You can implement this by writing the module to throw an exception or whatever method you want to execute.
    If you don't want to receive an error message then module is suitable for you.

  • Variable Substitution - How do I use a segment atribute ?

    Hi all, I'm facing a problem with variable substitution in receiver comunication channel.
    I got the follow message:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <lote nro="000262007">
        <etc>...</etc>
    </lote>
    I want to get atribute <b>nro</b> from segment lote to use in variable substitution, how can I do it?

    Variable sucstitution doesnt allow a way to achieve this.
    There could be some workarounds
    1. Use some dummy element in ur xml message with same value as tht of the attribute.
    2. Use adapter specific message attributes or dynamic file name functionality

  • Variable substitution for Dynamic filename

    Hi All,
    my Scenario is Proxy to file. and the receiver file should be a zip file of extension .dat.gz.
    In mapping I tried as below. In signature I used one sender and two receiver messages.
    SENDER:                         RECEIVER:(2messages)
    MT_Product                       MT_Product
    -----Row                              ---------Row
    ---------field1                         -----------field1
    ---------field2                         -----------field2
    ---------field3                         -----------field3
                                             MT_Poduct_1
                                               --------field5  
    for field5 I mapped current date and I am trying to use it in Reciver file communication channel. will that be correct to use?
    In receiver communication channel the file name is Product_%field5%.zip I used
    and I used Module Configuration for content conversion and Zipping the file.
    In variable substitution I used field5 for dynamic date.
    field5-----------
    payload:Messages,1,Message2,1,MT_Product_1,1,field5,1

    Guys! am on right path????? will this be possible????

    Hello,
    Why you are using multimapping? Just for defining target file name using var substitution - BTW, that too is incorrect. You cannot use Messages/Message 1 nodes in variable substitution.
    Secondly, if I am not wrong the approach of defining dynamic zip file name using variable substitution won’t work because variable substitution will be executed once all the modules before standard call sap adapter gets executed. So during runtime, at var substitution step, ur file will actually be a text file instead of XML as a result u will get an exception.
    So, if there is no specific objective of using multimapping then simply use DC.
    Thanks

  • 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:

    Variable Name: File_Name
    Reference: message:FileName

    Hi !
    I suggest to use Dynamic Configuration to assign the receiver filename using an UDF in graphical mapping. This little UDF can receive as input parameter the contents of the NAME field and write it to the specific tag in the header of the message, so the adapter will use that value as filename when writting the file on the receiver system, instead of variable sustitution.

    it says:
    Variable Substitution (Target Directory/File Name Scheme)
    If you set the Enable indicator, you can enter variables for the Target Directory and File Name Scheme. Enter the names of the variables and references in the table.
    ●      Enter each variable that you reference in the Target Directory and File Name Scheme fields without the surrounding percentage sign under Name of Variables in the table.
    The variables can refer to attributes of the message header or elements of the message payload.
    ○       If the variables are to refer to an attribute of the message header, add the prefix message: to the name of the variable under Reference. You can specify the following attributes of the message header:
    sender_party, sender_service, receiver_party, receiver_service, interface_name, interface_namespace, message_id, message_id_hex
    Can we not access sender_interface_name and sender_interface_namespace are not mentioned in above list of variables.
    Is it not possible to access sender_interface_name or sender_interface_namespace as variable substitute parameters from within Receiver File Adapter Communication channel.
    thanks.

    Yes, i can hardcode, thats not a bad idea, i need to create then 3 different Reciever File Communication Channel objects, as I am dealing with 3 scenarios for which sender system and sender interface is different.

    yes in this link you provided i can see..
    INTERFACE     Interface
    INTERFACE_NAMESPACE     InterfaceNamespace
    SENDER_SERVICE     SenderService
    RECEIVER_SERVICE ReceiverService
    RECEIVER_NAME     ReceiverName
    RECEIVER_NAMESPACE     ReceiverNamespace
    it seems both INTERFACE (,INTERFACE_NAMESPACE) and RECEIVER_NAME(,RECEIVER_NAMESPACE) are present, may be one is for sender, and another is for receiver.. may be if i use dynamic configuration, possibly my issue would be addressed.. correct me if i am wrong.
    thanks.

  • Error while using the variable name "VARIABLE" in variable substitution

    Hi Experts,
      I am using variable substitution to have my output filename set as a payload field value. It is working fine when I am using the variable name as fname, subs etc but channel goes in error when I am using the variable name as "VARIABLE". This is probably a reserved word but i would like to know where i can find a detailed documentation on this. Say things to note / restrictions while using variable substitution.
    This is the error in the channel:
    Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Error during variable substitution: java.text.ParseException: Variable 'variable' not found in variable substitution table: com.sap.aii.adapter.file.configuration.DynamicConfigurationException: Error during variable substitution: java.text.ParseException: Variable 'variable' not found in variable substitution table
    Thanks,

    Hi Zevik,
    Thanks for the reply. The output file is created correctly by merely changing the variable name to something else and hence the doubt.
    Below is the configuration:
    Variable Substituition
    VARIABLE    payload:interface_dummy,1,Recordset,1,Header,1,field1,1
    Filename schema : TEST_%VARIABLE%.txt
    Output xml structure:
    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
    - <ns:interface_dummy xmlns:ns="http://training.eu.unilever.com">
    - <ns:Recordset xmlns:ns="http://training.eu.unilever.com">
    - <Header>
      <identifier>HDR</identifier>
      <field1>001</field1>
      <field2>001</field2>
      <field3>R</field3>
      </Header>
    - <Detail>
      <identifier>A</identifier>
      <field1>000000002</field1>
      <field2 />
      <field3>Doretha.Walker</field3>
      </Detail>
    I thimk my configuration is correct as it is working correctly with the variable name change, However, maybe i missed something !
