Conversion from TXT. to XML format

[#1]

HI Experts,

I have a requirement from the client for conversion of .txt files to .xml files as they think they have some structural issues with .txt files . So just want to know what should be plan of action . and what can be tha\e consequences of the same.

ONE THING TO NOTE IS THAT THE PROJECT IS ALREADY LIVE AND ALL THE SCENARIOS ARE ALREADY WORKING FINE WITH \.TXT FILES TO IDOC CONVERSION.

HI,

As explained above if you are receiveing the .xml files you would have to change the sender file adapter file names :.xml from .txt..

and you should change the txt file to xml file by manually or by using some interface or by some tools..

First you would have to take the structure of .txt files and does the same structure and occurrences are followed in the structure or not.. and you would have to take record set,record structure,occurrences and size of the input file...

-- Are they using the FTP or not..

-- Is there any need of IDoc packaging..etc.. if receiving system is R3(IDoc)..
