Split input string to chunk of characters and assign it to target idoc line item

[Former Member]

Hello Experts,

My requirement is like this.

Input field is having values more than 135 characters and we want to split this value to multiple segments of IDOC SEGMENT. This is like First 13 characters to segment one ,secon d 13 to segment 2 and so on.

I tried with solit by value(each value but it did not work. Can someone please help me on this?

Really appreciate help.

Thanks in advance,

Hello ,

I wrote UDF which is splitting the string into 13 string each, but I want the idoc segment to be created for every next 13 fields but the other values of the other fields in the idoc segment should be as it is. I tired with this logic in mapping but its not working

Source--UDF---SpilitByValue(Each Value)---target.

Can you please suggest any corrections in it?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

First add ","delimiter after every 13 characters using a simple udf and write the below code in the same udf. This will give the output as the attached screenshot. Then you can use splitbyvalue function to assign it to the field in consecutive segments.

for (String a: value[0].split(","))

{

result.addValue(a);

Hi,

If you need to pass value every 13 character to "different field", rather than graphical mapping, I think it would be much possible using java mapping.

Looks like you have an extra closing bracket that you do not need. Try this:

result.addvalue(a,pos+13);

Hello Mark,

Do I select it as Argument or parameter? Also should it have any Result/Output parameter ?

Thanks in advance

Hi BRM Fresher!

It looks like you use single value UDF to produce result list.

As far as I remember, if you want to return a list of values, you should switch to all values of context or all values of queue and process input array instead of single value.

Hi,

I do not have PI at the moment, but you can replace System.out.println with result.AddValue;

Hope this helps,

Mark

I corrected the UDF like this but it did not work

int size = 13; for (int i = 0; i < input.length(); i += size){ int end = i + size > input.length(); input.length() = i + size; result.addValue(input.substring(i, end)); }

Can someone please help on this?
