Hi,

I think u can go to File Content Conversion.

For eg: If u have a file like:

H1

D1

and H1 come one and D1 can be multiple.....Then u can split file using H1 field......

Whenever H1 comes just break into a separate file and make a idoc.

Go through these:

Hi

Little hard to understand your question, but I assume you want to convert incoming file to many Idocs.

Make sure the Idoc occurrence is set to

minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="Unbounded"

to be able to spit out as many as you want.

To do this you take the Idoc's .xsd file (XSD tab when you look at it in XI), export it to a file, tweak it like this:

<xsd:element name="IDOC" type="NameOfIDOC" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"/>

and import it as an external definition that you use in the mapping.

In your mapping, make sure that the IDOC field is mapped/will be created for every occurrence of a specific field in each record in your incoming file.

Get back to me if it is unclear...
