Content conversion receiver AS2 channel

[Former Member]

hi All,

I have a structure as shown below which needs to be converted into a flatfile. this is a case of XML to plain file in receiver AS2 channel.

Content to be converted :-

- <ns1:MaterialMasterDataToLVS xmlns:ns1="ABC">

- <RecordSet>

- <Data>

<SENDER_GLN>8712423000339</SENDER_GLN>

<RECEIVER_GLN>4017587000459</RECEIVER_GLN>

<MESSAGE_TYPE>MaterialMasterData</MESSAGE_TYPE>

ANF 00 22 DANZAS-KR KRE STA 0002 03122012 152115 0000000 HEA 00000 0 AE U 871120080012 0008001

</Data>

</RecordSet>

</ns1:MaterialMasterDataToLVS>

As you can see above, inside Data there are three fields(SENDER_GLN,RECEIVER_GLN & MESSAGE_TYPE) and one text part which is the actual value of Data (ANF 00 22 DANZAS-KR KRE STA 0002 03122012 152115 0000000 HEA 00000 0 AE U 871120080012 0008001)

I need the output to be as below :-

ANF 00 22 DANZAS-KR KRE STA 0002 03122012 152115 0000000 HEA 00000 0 AE U 871120080012 0008001

That is i need to remove the other three fields. Is this possible? I tried using fieldlengthtooshorthandling - "Cut" as per Sravya's blog but it doesnt seem to work. http://scn.sap.com/people/sravya.talanki2/blog/2005/08/11/solution-to-the-problem-encountered-using-...

Also i cannot use a Java or XSLT to remove the 3 fields.

Hello Ninu,

I have never come across an xml file that contains child elements AND data in one element.

Is it a valid XML structure?

Would it be possible to change the source structure?

E.g. you could introduce a new child element <DATA> below the <Data> element after the <MESSAGE_TYPE>.

Or you could convert the three child elements into attributes of the <Data> element.

hi all,

I couldnt handle it as text . So had to use a node for the text field as well.

Hello,

You can try this:

1. Edit your message mapping

2. Right-click the field and then select disable field, do this for the three fields.

3. Save and activate

Hope this helps,

Mark
