Empty Document Found: Problem due to FCC

Former Member

My scenario relates to a Sender File Adapter and a Receiver IDoc Adapter. My Outbound Message Type / Data Type has multiple Complex elements which I later replicated to only three(3) Complex elements to simplify checking the issue. The elements defined in IR are as follows:

1.EDI_DC: Element occuring once with multiple fields

2.E2IDKU1: Element occuring 0..unbounded with multiple fields

3.E2EDKO3: Element occuring 0..unbounded with multiple fields

IDirectory has a Sender File Adapter has a Communication channel with the following specifed in FCC:

Document Name: MT_RecManager_Test_O

Document Namespace: http://mrgnetwork.com/WF/RecManager

Document Offset: <nothing specified>

RecordSet Name: RecordSet

RecordSet Namespace: <nothing specified>

RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40,1,E2IDKU1, *,E2EDK03, *

RecordSet Sequence: Ascending

RecordSets per Message: *

KeyFieldName: SEGNAM

KeyFieldType: String(Case Sensitive)

EDI_DC40.fieldNames: SEGNAM,MANDT,DOCNUM,DOCREL,STATUS,DIRECT, EDI_DC40_FILLER1

EDI_DC40.fieldFixedLengths: 10,3,16,4,2,1,6

EDI_DC40.keyFieldValue: EDI_DC40

EDI_DC40.missingLastFields: add

EDI_DC40.additionalLastFields:ignore

EDI_DC40.endSeparator: 'nl'

E2IDKU1.fieldFixedLengths: 30,3,16,6,6,2,3,35,35,3,3

E2IDKU1.keyFieldValue: E2IDKU1

E2IDKU1.fieldNames: SEGNAM,MANDT,DOCNUM,SEGNUM,PSGNUM,HLEVEL,BGMTYP,BGMNAME,BGMREF,BGMLEV,BGMACC

E2IDKU1.missingLastFields: add

E2IDKU1.additionalLastFields: ignore

E2IDKU1.endSeparator: 'nl'

E2IDKU1.keepIncompleteFields: yes

E2EDK03.fieldFixedLengths: 30,3,16,6,6,2,3,8,6

E2EDK03.keyFieldValue: yes

E2EDK03.fieldNames: SEGNAM,MANDT,DOCNUM,SEGNUM,PSGNUM,HLEVEL,IDDAT,DATUM,UZEIT

E2EDK03.missingLastFields: add

E2EDK03.additionalLastFields: ignore

E2EDK03.endSeparator: 'nl'

E2EDK03.keepIncompleteFields: yes

ignoreRecordSetName: true

The test file contents are as follows: (please note that I have pasted the file contents in this limited "Plain Text" field, the lines are wrapping around):

EDI_DC40 4000000000000000000700 302112233445566

E2IDKU1 100000000000000000000000100000001LBXLOCKBX 1

E2IDKU1 200000000000000000000000100000001LBXLOCKBX 1

E2EDK03 10000000000000000000000020000000201120081114092712

When I run the above file contents with the FCC RecordSet as follows, the Payload is empty and I receive a message that: Empty Document found. Proceed without sending message

RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40, 1,E2IDKU1,,E2EDK03,

When I run the above file contents with the FCC RecordSet as follows, the Payload is correctly formed and I receive my message in the Integration Engine and can see it in SXMB_MONI:

RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40, 1,E2IDKU1,2,E2EDK03,1

I want to be able to specify an asterisk "*" in RecordSet Structure as the file contents can vary for KeyFields E2IDKU1 and E2EDK03.

I have seen various messages in SDN referring to checking the File contents and FCC and I have already done so without any results. This feature has been widely used in PI. Is there a change in PI 7.0. We are currently running PI 7.0 / SP12. Please advise.

Channel <Channel Name>: Empty document found. Proceed without sending message.

Please note that as stated before that if I change the RecordSet Structure and DO NOT specify an asterisk "*", I do not get the "Empty document found message" and the message actually appears in Integration Engine with a payload.

Thanks in advance for your input.

All,

Found the solution to the issue I have been facing. Apparently, the Keyfield values cannot handle any trailing spaces. Thereby I ending up splitting the SEGNAM field to SEGNAM and SEGNAM_FILLER where field SEGNAM would have a length equal to the value specified in the field.

Thanks to all for your valuable input.

Are you sure that the file is been read? plz check in SXMB_MONI payload.

As stated earlier in the post, the scenario does not work with the following specified in the RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40,1,E2IDKU1,\*,E2EDK03,\*

Where as when I use the following in the RecordSet Structure, the file contents are appropriately seen in the Message Payload and can be seen in SXMB_MONI:

RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40,1,E2IDKU1,2,E2EDK03,1

Yes - My Recordset looks exactly the same to what you have specified.

Anand,

I have already tried both the iterations with and without the spaces specified in the Recordset Structure. Thanks.

i am sorry for repeating the same Q. I said if u give the asterick that i mentioned in the previous reply, what is the result?

Anand,

Yes I have tried both scenarios in the Record Set: With or without spaces after the commas for a related field.

Thanks.

i missed the asterick

RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40,1,E2IDKU1,*,E2EDK03,*

If you give the above recordset structure, what is the result?

what you say is if you give the following RecordSet you get empty document. Try removing the space between commas. this shdn't matter, but ur structure looks good..

RecordSet Structure: EDI_DC40,1,E2IDKU1,,E2EDK03,
