Hi,
Mode1, mode2 and mode3 are file names?
You can achieve this by using 'Advanced Selection for Source File' in Communication channel in ID.
Refer the advanced selection of Source file concept from following link:

File Name in the Send Port with PGP Encryption

Hello,
The File Name in the Send Port should be set with the mask like ABC.txt.pgp. Since I have used the PGP Encryption Component it is generating the File name like ABC.pgp.txt.pgp. But what I need is just the ABC.txt.pgp. How can be this be done. Any help is
greatly appreciated.
Thanks

What you are seeing is the expected behavior. If you are referring to this:
https://code.msdn.microsoft.com/windowsdesktop/BizTalk-Sample-PGP-ebcbc8b2
or one of it's derivatives, it will internally modify FILE.ReceivedFileName to append .pgp if that property is set.
So, if you use just %SourceFileName%, you will likely get the desired result. Otherwise, you will have to explicitly set FILE.ReceivedFileName to ABC.txt somewhere before the PGP component.
You can also modify the source code to remove this behavior.

Adding file name in the sender Adaptor

Hi ,
I am facing some problem in adding file name .
The scenario is like this :
The file needs to be send from on system and needs to be Archived . Once processed, the archived file should be prefixed with ARCH_ so that it is not picked up again .And the other thing given is the file name used will be of the format XXX_YYY_nnnnnnnnnn.DAT where nnnnnnnnnn is the date stamp .

Variable Substitution for File Name Scheme

Hi all,
Please clarify the following issue.
I have two source fields
Transfer Order number - 0000000222
Transfer Order line item - 0001
Both i map it into one target field
The target field output is - 0000000222#0001
I need a file name which starts with ABC <TranferOrderNumber>.txt
The problem is, when i try to use payload i get output
(ABC0000000222#0001.txt). The reason is i use the target field which was concatenated. I don't have any target field with only transfer order no.
Please give me a solution where i would get output
(ABC0000000222.txt).
Thanks in advance,
Jose Augastine

Hi,
Other way may be like this ..Create a one more segment in your target structure with field name as Transfer Order No. And populate only this no. And in the Reciever File adapter , in the variable sub, use only this field. But this new segment will come in the file. To avoid this, you can make use of " Cut " Parameter in the File Content Conversion.
This will hold good, if you have content conversion-

Dynamic File Name - Suppress the Substitue varible

Hi All,
I am doing the scenarios like File name at the recevier end would be dynamic for that i take an extra field NAME mapped with UDF which return the file name dynamically. It is working fine and doing good. But the problem here is , this field is the first field in my target structure so i am getting an empty line in the target file.
So My structure as follows:
MT_BNK01 1..1
NAME 1..1
RECORD 0..Unbound
 --Record_data 0..Unbound
So in the recever side i written as follows
Recordset Structure:: RECORD
RECORD.fieldSeparator = 'nl'
RECORD.endSeparator = 'nl'
But according to this weblog i can suppress the empty line but it is not working
/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-variable-substitution-with-xi-sp12
means, NAME is also in the same level of RECORD in the Structure. So How can i pass the structure as ??
I tried to pass the RecordSet Structure: NAME,RECORD
and following parameters, it is not working
NAME.fieldFixedLength =0
NAME.fieldLengthTooShortHandling = Cut
Can you please suggest me what could be the reason. Tell me what information i need to pass the RecordSet Structure and attrubute information also.
One more thing like, My sender side it is not picking the empty lines. What could be the reason. I given fieldSeparator and endSeparator as 'nl'. So to catch the empty line what i need to do???
Thanks in Advance,
Best Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijaya,
This can be solved. Actually i had the same scenario where i was getting blank line for the header. Suppose Header was carrying the file name after i cut the value i would get a blank line in file.
So i added in content conversion parameter the following line
Header.endSeparator - '0'
then the first line was not blank.
Try this, i think your issue will be solved

Dynamic file name of the attachment in sender mail adapter

Hi
I have configured a sender mail adapter which receives some attachments.
Right now the file name of the attachment is hardcoded to "MailAttachment-1" "MailAttachment-2" using the content-description from "AF_Modules/PayloadSwapBean" module.
I want to set it to dynamic ie. instead of "MailAttachment-1"... i want it with real name of the attach.
please suggest a solution w/o the need to develop a custom adapter module.
Thanks!
Regards,
Mariano.

Thanks Prateek,
Now, i can see that the name of the original file is into the content type named as text/xml; name"name of the file.xml" when i send the email from outlook.
If i send it from hotmail, this is not happend.
Do you know why happend this?
If i always would have the original name inside the content type, my problem will be solved.

RQ: Receive files in folder with name of the sende...

Hello,
I don't know is I'm on the right place and I don't know is there same request, so I apologize if it exist...
Please, make option the received files to be saved in folder with the name of the sender. For example: my friend with skype name XYZ send me a file 'foo.bar' that will be saved in \My Documents\Skype_save (I changed the default dir); another friend with name XXY send me file 'foo1.bar' and again it will be in \My Documents\Skype_save, but when there are many files it is difficult to sort them and know whose files sended by who... So the good choise is if the files are saved in folder with name XYZ, XXY etc... Example:
\Skype_save\XYZ\foo.bar
\Skype_save\XXY\foo1.bar
I'm sorry for my bad english, it's not my native language. I hope you can understand what I mean with this folders

There is no automatic option in Skype that can do what you are trying to accomplish. However, you can in advance create save folders named as your contacts and and each time you receive a file, to save the file in the appropriate folder.
For this to function, you have to set the option in Tools -> Options -> IM settings -> Show advanced options to “Choose a folder where to save the file every time”.

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
Thanks
MP

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.

does the time stamp with the ":" a part of your output file?
else use a replaceAll function in your mapping and replace the : with empty string then use the value in the variable substitution
Another option is use the normal BPM for 1: N message flow. The use a simple java mapping that will introduce a dynamic configuration and you can create the file name as you want. the java mapping will be used in the flow of messages from BPM to target system.

Get File name of the inbound file during mapping

Scenario: to read the file name of the inbound file (which has date required for the mapping) during runtime.
The requirement is to read the date of the inbound file (passed to the XI pipline by the file adapter) and populate the same in the outbound mapping structure.
Any idea about how to do this?
(I went through few options of using java.util.map. not successful yet)

Hi Anand,
I posted the same question a time ago, without any help....
Can I find out the full filename of input file in message mapping?
Posted: Nov 23, 2004 1:00 PM
I have in XI 2.0 the following scenario :
In the inbound fileadapter I read my input file. The filename of the input file is part fixed, part variable (Like INDATA01.txt, INDATA03.txt, etc).
So in my Adapterconfiguration, I specify the filename with a wildcard (INDATA*.txt).
What I now want to do, is in my Message Mapping use the full filename , so I can do something different for every filenumber. Is there a way where I can get the full filename available in my message mapping (I did not find the filename in the XML in the message trace).

How to find the File name using the FTP Adapter

hi all,
how to find the File name using the FTP Adapter with BPEL.
Regards

Found the solution for this.
First In the mediator's routing rule use assign property $in.property.jca.file.FileName to $out.property.jca.file.FileName
In the BPEL's receive activity go to the properties tab and get the property to a BPEL variable. That should do it.
Thanks for the posts

How to use variables in logical file name definition FILE

Hi Friends,
How can I use variables in logical file name definition (tcode FILE). The requirement is to pass value in these variables (based on selection criteria), and use it as part of file name. You quick response will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kuldeep Joshi

Hi,
Thanks for your reply.
In detail, the scenario is like I have created an Open Hub. Its working fine. Now I am planning to execute this open hub using process chain and for that I have to define the file output on application server along with logical file name (using tcode FILE). The logical file name contains two variables (defined in FILE) i.e. z_dept and z_fiscperiod.
Filter value in DTP ( I will read these values from Ztable using routine )
Dept = R&D
Fisc period = 004/2009
Variables defined in tcode FILE:
z_dept for Dept
z_fiscperiod for Fiscal Period
Logical file name : <z_dept>_<z_fiscperiod>.csv
Now the challenge is to populate filter values in these two variables so that the filter value can be used for naming the output file.
My last option is to read/update SAP standard table used for storing variable values (i.e. PARAMVALUE)
Please let me know if you can help me in this issue OR is there any standard method/FM to populate value in these variables
Thanks,
Kuldeep

How to using variable in log file name on ODI 10.1.3.5?

Hi,
how can i put a my variable into my log file name?
now I use this syntax --> ExRate_<%=odiRef.getSysDate("MMddyyHHmm")%>.log.
But I have a variable for example #server, the value = "oracleProd" and i want to put the variable value into my log file name.
so the result that i want to get is --> ExRate_oracleProd_<%=odiRef.getSysDate("MMddyyHHmm")%>.log
so how can I apply the variable value to my log file name? I try using odiRef.getSessionVarList(#Month) but it didn't work.
Thanks.
Regards,
chris
Edited by: 877142 on Aug 3, 2011 9:36 PM

hi,
You can by
ExRate-#server-<%=odiRef.getSysDate("MMddyyHHmm")%>.log
Note that I have changed the underscores to dashes. This is because ODI will assume that this is a wildcard/escape character.
Hope this helps!!
