Hi keerthi,

In rela time scenarios when you deal with legacy applications, most of them will generate data as Files. Now as you know, the message that hits the integration engine of XI has to be in XML format for successful processing.

The legacy systems do not directly create XML files but instead create file in different formats like a CSV file, In such cases, you use the File Adapter's COntent Conversion to convert the Flat strucutre to an XML strucutre.

u check these threads for better understanding

Hi Keerthi,

When ever we have .txt file at sender or receiver we go for Content conversion

and the processing mode delete will not create any problem.

It will delete the file from source if FCC parameters are met.

the only problem/difficulty is that once the scenario works fine. the second time you have to put the file again at source.

we go for content conversion to convert the file in the flat file format to an XML, y XML as it is language XI speaks.....

the problem you face while selecting processing mode Select is:

it will not delete the file if the FCC paramters are wrong, if the FCC paramters are not matching the Data type you have created.......

Hi

you can do the content conversion at the sender side as well as at the receiver side.

at the sender side if you have a text file , then you will go for the content conversion, because XI understand only the XML.

and if you want the text file at the receiver sdie then you do the content conversion at the receiver side.

Thanks
