Create a flat-file upload for a BO XAI Inbound Service?

Hello all,
If we don't have a schema defined for a BO XAI Inbound Service, how can we create the XSL and the flat-file upload schema file for it.
Any advice?
Regards,
Kerr

I don't have problem to create the XSLT mapping.
But because it is to create a flat-file upload for a Business Object XAI Inbound Service, it doesn't have a schema on the server as to the thread Create Schema for Business Object to use for XAI Inbound Service?
And I can't create that flat-file upload without a schema on the server.
Or I can use the BO XAI Inbound Service WSDL instead to create the mapping for the flat-file upload.
Regards,
Kerr

Create a flat file with multiple characters for enclosures

Hello,
we use OWB 11g2 (11.2.02).
Now we try to create a flat file with multiple characters for enclosures. The manual wrote:
"Enclosures (Left and Right): Some delimited files contain enclosures that denote text strings within a field. If the file contains enclosures, enter an enclosure character in the text box or select one from the list. The list displays commonenclosures. However, you may enter any character. The default for both the left and right enclosure is the double quotation mark ("). You can specify multiple characters and hexadecimal characters as field enclosures."
But it will not work. The OWB use the first character from the left enclosure definition as left enclosure and the second one as right enclosure !?!
Did anyone know this behavior? Is there a solution for this problem?
Thanks and regards
Norbert

HI Raghu,
Use the function module 'GUI_UPLOAD'.
In that you have to specify the field_separator value = 'X' in export section.

Beginner - Flat file upload error Help Please

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to upload a flat file [.csv] for the first time.
I created Info objects Material Id, Material Name , Price as keyfigure.
Material Id holds Material Name and Price as attributes and is With Text and With Master Data.
For the Keyfigure, Price, I have selected Amount and defined as USD.
In the flat file, i have Material id, Material Name, Price, Description for Text, its something like this
Mid         M-Name   Price      DESCRIPTION
10001     A              99.99     AA
When I create an Application Component and thereafter create a data source for master data attributes for Material
and select the flat file and upload it, then the data types for Keyfigure PRICE changes to FLTP Length 16, its no longer as DEC and i get some werid data for Price field, something like
"99.990000000001E+02" instead of 99.99.   Why am I having this problem and how could this be resolved ?
I thought i would start off with my best foot forward but it didnt work. Any kind of help would be highly appreciated. Thanks guys..Byee

BPC delta flat file upload possible?

Hi experts,
Ive been trying to find an answer of whether or not it is possible to retain member data on manual flat file upload into a dimension. We have created a dimension (employee) and have created some dummy nodes member data and would like to determine if it is possible to then keep this manual member data while manually loading further member data through flat file load. Is this sort of manual flatfile delta load possible? If so how? What is best practice here?
Also, is it possible to load data into a dimension using two methods IE manual upload file and then another form (IE BW load) without overwriting data? Im assuming this is where the merge data option comes in to play.
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Danielle

Hi Danielle,
While uploading data, if you have added dimension members manually, then, it never gets deleted untill and unless you specify for it.
In your scenario, you have created dummy members and want to upload data thru flat file. Then, the data will be uploaded only for those members for which you want to upload data, rest of the members will display the old data.
As you rightly said earlier, while running data manager package, you need to select MERGE option instead of REPLACE & CLEAR data values. This keeps the old data intact and adds the new ones as well.
Hope this clarifies further.

Poonam

How to Create a Flat File using FTP/File Adapter

Can any body done workaround on creating the Flat file using FTP/File Adapter?.
I need to create a simple FlatFile either using of delimiter/Fixed length. using the above said adapters we can create XML file, i tried concatinating all the values into a single String and writing into a file, but it does not have proper structure
Can any body help me out on this..
Thanks

You can create a text schema while creating a File Adapter. If schema is specified for File Adapter, it takes care of converting XML into fixed length or delimited format.

Create a Flat File like text_io in forms6i

Hello,
how i create a flat file (to download or in files system) via apex, like I did in oracle forms using text_io, for example
employees.txt

Fernando Medina 5000.00
thanks in advance

Edited by: Fdomedina on Mar 11, 2010 5:00 AM

Now you have to do it from the database using the UTL_FILE package.
Or (if it is a report) download it as CSV file, so you can open it in Excel.

Problem in Flat File Uploading

Hi everyone
During a flat file uploading, I get a message for each record of my SKU (Stock Keeping Unit), for eg for SKU 1017023, I got a message
<b>Value '1017023 ' for characteristic PISKU is in external format RRSV 9</b>
PISKU is the field name.
The whole extraction is failing.
Kindly provide me some suggestions as soon as poosible!!
If possible mail me at
[email protected]
Regards
Gajendra Singh

Hi,
It seems there is a space in the value '1017023 '.You have to edit in PSA and then send it again else delete the request and change the flat file entry and reload the data.
Hope this helps

Creating a flat file in the IDOC format

Hi everybody,
Need help.....urgently. Can somebody please tell me how to create a flat file in the IDOC format? I am creating a bill of lading/Documentary payments (EDI 858) and can't figure out a way to write the data generate through the report in a flat file in IDOC format. My deadline is right around the corner and I need help.
Thanks,
M

Hi Minal,
I still don't understand your question.
So, you have a report which selects data and puts it into an internal table. This part looks fine.
You want to create a flat file? Ok, to create a flat file on the application server then use the commands OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER, and CLOSE DATASET. To create a flat file on the presentation server then use the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD (or the GUI class, I forgets its name for the moment).
In both cases you should build up an internal table which has the exact structure required for your (EDIFACT?) EDI message, and then use the appropriate method to write the file.
If the following steps are manual then there is nothing more for you to do.
I don't see any need to use Idoc technology, or make any reference to it in your solution.
I hope that helps. If not, please be more specific when asking your questions.

BPS Flat File Upload Error Messages

Hi,
I am using the BPS flat file upload and am getting error messages. These error messages are coming from the user exit in the characteristics relationships. Unfortunately the message does not indicate which line on the upload file the error is for. In the user exit it does not pass the line no of the flat file that is being processed.
Does anyone have any ideas how the message could be enhanced to indicate the line in error or if there is another exit I could perform the validation in?
regards
Paul Cairncross

Hi Sai,
The issue is not the particular message. The message is in fact my message in the user exit in the characteristic relationships. The issue is when using the flat file upload the message does not indicate which line in the file the message apply's to. Looking at the userexit no line number is passed. This is not a problem in the web as the specific line is highlighted when the user is keying in the data.
