We are on PI version 7.1
I have many SFTP Config Scenarios which simply pick up a file in one location and deliver it to another. All of these work fine but now I have an issue with one particular scenario where there is a codepage problem. What is happening is that characters with umlauts (äöü... etc) are delivered as garbage.
SFTP delivers files in binary mode and so in PI we don’t convert or change anything therefore this should work. I don’t understand why this particular scenario doesn’t work?
I have seen a number of posts on codepage issues, (including this very useful link http://scn.sap.com/thread/3307004), and many of these suggest using AF_Modules/MessageTransformBean, followed by the conversion Bean AF_Modules/TextCodepageConversionBean. The problem is that in my SFTP adapter these Modules are not available, I am assuming because we are only on version 7.1.?
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Glen,

What do you mean they are not available on PI 7.1?
You can add them in the sender adapter module configuration.

Hi Mark,
Thank you once again for your help! Very useful.
One last question, if i may.
Do you have any idea how I can test my solution? I have tried by creating a non utf-8 txt file with the umlaut characters, then putting this on AL11 (cg3z), then in my receiver i receive this in another path on AL11. However all the way through when I display my file the values are correct i.e. the umlauts are always there!
Hi Glen,
No, that's not what I mean.
What I am trying to say is that those are the standard or modules which comes with the adapter. i.e. when you try to create a SFTP channel, when you go to module tab, you will see these modules.
SAP has provided some standard modules like message transform bean, XML anonymizer bean etc. to achieve some functionality according to our requirement.
Yes, you can use these standard modules whenever/whereever it is needed according to your requirement.

Hi Vishnu,
Yep i realise this and will of course close... still struggling with testing i.e. still seeing umlat characters eg. äöü etc., as garbage! It's quite difficult to know which Modules are available for the SFTP adapter without a dropdown, and the subsequent parameters as well are difficult to find as also there is no dropdown!
