Loading transaction data from flat file to SNP order series objects

Hi,
I am an BW developer and i need to provide data to my SNP team.
Can you please let me know more about <b>loading transaction data (sales order, purchase order, etc.,) from external systems into order based SNP objects/structure</b>. there is a 3rd party tool called webconnect that gets data from external systems and can give data in flat file or in database tables what ever required format we want.
I know we can use BAPI's, but dont know how. can you please send any <b>sample ABAP program code that calls BAPI to read flat file and write to SNP order series objects</b>.
Please let me know ASAP, how to get data from flat file into SNP order based objects, with options and I will be very grateful.
thanks in advance
Rahul

Can i load transaction data thro flat files without loading masters?

Hi all,
is it possible to load history data using flat files in sales cube without having loaded any masters?
thanks

Hi
You can load the transaction data without loading the master data. You have to check the option in update rules (update also if no master data exists).
In reporting you will not be able to see the attribute and text data. Its always adivceable to load master data first and run apply hierarchy/attribute change and load the transaction data.
AHP: Nice to see you after a long time

Deleting master data after loading transactional data using flat file

Dear All,
I have loaded transaction data into an infocube using a flat file . While loading DTP i have checked the option "load transactional data with out master data exists" . So transactional data is loaded even if no master data is there in BW.
While loading the flat file, I made a mistake for DIVISION Characteristic where original master data value is '04000' , but i loaded the transactional data with value '4000' .Then i later realized after seeing the data from the infocube and deleted the request. then i reloaded data with value '04000'. Till now every thing is fine.
But when I see the master data for DIVISION , i can see a new entry with value '4000'.
My question is how to delete the entry value '4000' from DIVISION. I tried deleting manually this entry from 'maintaining masterdata' , but it is not allowing me to do so .
I have also checked if any transactional data exists for that value '4000' , as i said earlier I have deleted the transactional data with that values. even tried to delete the entries from the master data table, but i donot see a option to delete entries there.
Please suggest me on this.
Regards,
Veera

Hi,
Goto RSA1 right click on the Info object and select Delete Master data. This will delete the master data unused existing in the table.
If this master data is not used any where else just delete the master data completely with SID option.
If even this doesnt work you can delete the complete table entire in SE14. But this will wipe out the entire table. Be sure if you wanna do this.
Hope this helps

How to load the data from flat file ( ex excel ) to Planning area directly

Hi all ,
How can i load thedata fro m flat file directly to Planning area .
PLease help me in this.
Regards,
Chandu .

download one key figure data from planning book ( interactive damand plan) and made some changes and need to upload the data back to same planning book
But, may I know why you are thinking of downloading, changing and uploading for just changing the figures for a particular key figure. You can do it in the planning book itself.
However, not all the key-figures can be changed. But, what type of key-figure you are speaking here? Is it like 'Forecast' for which the value is based on other key-figures, or is like a key-figure where some manual adjustments are to be done--so that it can be manually edited? However, in both the cases, the data can be changed in the planning book only. In first case, you can change the values of dependant key-figures and in the second case, you can change the key-figures directly.
And please note that you can change the values of the key-figures only at the detailed level. So, after loading the data in the book, use drill-down option, maintain the data at the detailed level, change the figures, and automatically, this gets reflected at the higher level.
In case you are unable to change the values, go to the 'Design' mode of the book, right-click your key-figure, under "Selected Rows", uncheck "Output Only" option. In case you are unable to see that option, then you are not authorised to change that. See if you can change the authorisations by going to the "Data View" tab in planning book configuration (/n/sapapo/sdp8b), and change the value of Status to 3.
Hope your query is answered with different solutions offered by many of the sdn colleagues here.

Guru Charan.

Error in load master data from flat file to infocube "No SID found for val"

Hi gurus
while i m loding data from ffile to infocube. getting error message "No SID found for value 'HOT ' of characteristic 0UNIT" for material name field .
in flat file one fileld having lower carrecter so i have defined formula for upper case in transfer rule.
after scheduleing message is "data was requested". but in monitor-> detail-> request, extraction status is green and transfer , processing ststus are red.
overall status is red.

It appears your transfer structure and source file are not mapped correctly. Make sure your source file is in the correct format. TRy the "preview" function to make sure.
Also, is the file and your log on language the same? For instance is the file from a GErman user but you are logged in in English? You will see errors like that when you use ST (Stuck = Pieces) instead of PC (Peices in English)
To test a bad mapping, hard code the Unit to something to make sure...(to PC for instance).
Also, the error message you are getting is because of transfer structure, please re-activate it. IF it persists, try to skip the PSA and go straight to the data target.

Error loading transaction data from csv file

I am getting the following error when loading from a .csv file:

The BALANCE field is defined as : 0D_BALANCE (from the SAP Demo Cubes).
Any help on this is appreciated.

I made the changes. I was still getting the error until I had changed one item.
Under the FIELDS tab, I set the "FORMAT" to "External".
After doing this, all worked well.
Thanks again!

How to pass parameters to the Control file while loading the data from flat file to staging table

Thanks in advance

Hi ,
LOADDATA statement is required at the beginning of the control file.
INFILE: INFILE keyword is used to specify location of the datafile or datafiles.
INFILE* specifies that the data is found in the control file and not in an external file. INFILE ‘$FILE’, can be used to send the filepath and filename as a parameter when registered as a concurrent program.
INFILE ‘/home/vision/kap/import2.csv’ specifies the filepath and the filename.
Hope this will help you......

Error in loading data from flat file....

Hi,
While loading the data from flat file , only one column is getting populated in the ODS and after that the sixth column is getting populated with the null values. Also when I save the changes in CSV file .. its not getting saved.
Could you please tell me what could be the probable reason for this.
Also what are the points we should keep in mind while loading from flat files.
Regards,
Jeetu

Hi,
You need to take care of -
1. you flat file structure ( left to right columns) should match with the datasource ( top to down) column to column. if you don't wish to laod some column, leave it as blank column in flat file.
2. your file should not be open when loading data
3. make sure your transfer rules & update rules are defined properly.
4. do the simulation in infopakage first & that will give you fair idea.
5. to start with load data first in PSA Only, check & then take it forward.
hope it helps

Loading data from flat file...

Hello,
I am actually experiencing a problem where I cant load data from a flat file into a table. I have actually reverse engineered the flat file into ODI. But the thing is I don't know how to load the data that is reversed into a RDBMS table. Added, I don't know how create this RDBMS table form within ODI to be reflected on the DB. Added, don't know how to load the data from the flat file onto this table without having to add the columns in order to map between the flat file and the table.
In conclusion, I need to know how to create an RDBMS table from within ODI on the database. And how to automatically map the flat file to the DB table and load the data into the DB table.
Regards,
Hossam

Hi Hossam,
We can used ODI procedure to create table in the DB.
Make sure you keep the column name in the table name same as the column name in FLAT FILE so that it can automatically map the column.
and regarding Loading data from FLAT File i.e. our source table is FLAT FILE till ODI 10.1.3.4 we need to manually insert the datastore since the file system cannot be reversed.
Please let me know Hossam if i can assis you further.
Thanks and Regards,
Andy

Loading data from flat file to ODS

Hi Experts,
I have a developed a report, in which Flat file is the datasource and data target as DSO.
Here I have one requriment to Increatment the counter value in TVARVC table after every load compleate.
Can this be done thru Process chain? I belive this can be done thru process chain by creating variable.
If this can be done thru Process chains can any experts send me sample examples code.
Thanks In Advance.
Sreedhar.M

Hi sridhar,
     We have a similar scenario in which we will load data from flat file to datasource the file name (x_20081010.dat) of such format being fetched from the low value of the TVARVC table ... once successfully executed we had program to increment the value of low which increments by one day adn the next day the file with that will be placed in the application server...
    U can create a abap program varaint and attribute for that and u can achieve that.... this is sample code which searches for the string and after some coding i.e once ur file has been loaded successful code u can write similar code to increment or counter values which u are asking for...
search s_tvarvc-low for '20'.
        if sy-subrc ne 0.
          sy-msgty = 'E'.
          sy-msgid = 'ZWM1'.
          sy-msgno = '000'.
          sy-msgv1 = 'Unable to find DATE to increment'.
          raise unable_increment.
        else.
          w_date = s_tvarvc-low+sy-fdpos(08).
          w_nextdate = w_date + 1.
          replace w_date with w_nextdate into s_tvarvc-low.
          modify tvarvc from s_tvarvc.
        endif.

Hi John,
The source is csv file. By default all columns are string type.The integration is failing at step 3 ( load Data).
I am loading the data from csv file directly to staging table( oracle ).Its one to one mapping.
