hi

This is very difficult to use FileAdapter To IDOC....

difficult point

1, 3 files will go separately, receiver must wait other 2files.

2, idoc has own protocol, I dont know how to contain files in the protcol

I don't know it will work correctly, but if I have to make this scinerio I ll make bellow.

1,3 files will be Ziped.

2, Receiver adapter is ABAP proxy. ABAP proxy will unziped the files and stored the files.

thanks

Hi

The scenario requirement has to changed like the 2 files i.e. of PDF & Flat files would be zipped and there would be a different interface in which only the JPG format file would be sent.

Kindly let me know by using which adapter I would be able to convert the JPG file to xml format and process the file. Also let me know if there any other specific configurations required for this conversion and successful processing of the interface.

Thanks in Advance,

Madhvi

Hi Madhvi.

You can use simple file adapter to pickup JPG file.

Please see below blogs about how to process image file in PI

Hi Madhvi,

may i know what do you meant combined together ? is this IDOC customize or standard ?

I would prefer to used ABAP Proxy, since you can attached all the 3 files together in 1 message.

Cheers
