LSMW help with DIRs by using BAPi method

Hi experts,
I am learning LSMW and I have been given exercise which I have to finish. The question is:
Create a LSMW object for creation of DIRs by using BAPI method (UPLOAD_DOCUMENT)???
Can anyone tell me how should I go forward and what DIRs stands for... ??
I really appreciate your help..
Regards,
-Ashok Hansraj

Hello Ashok,
If you need a step - by - step approach for loading data using LSMW with various import techniques (like batch input, BAPI, IDOCS etc) you have to go thru this LSMW manual.
And the files with DIR information, you should receive those fields from your business. Because you should know the structure of the data in those files in order to maintain source and target structures.
Ask your business people over the format of the file you will be provided. In mean you can go thru this manual on this link.

To transfer the data Cross the systems why we are not using BAPI Method?

Hello All,
To transfer the data Cross the systems why we are not using BAPI Method? why we are using only ALE/IDoc's?

Hi Naveen,
   Listing down those I know -
   1. Master data is expected to be changed/created less frequestly.
   2. Transactional data is expected to be chnaged/created more frequestly.
   3. Transactions to create/change/display master data do no have message control integration, since you are not supposed to print/fax/mail master data to your partners.
   4. Distribution of master data in generally supposed to happen within Enterprise boundry and typically you will have one central server maintaining master data which will be distributed to multiple downstream operation system (Some thing where MDM fits). So ideally when distributing master data using ALE you will be sending it to multiple systems.
   5. Distributing transactional data PO/SO etc is same as sending fax/print which fits with the requirement of message control.
Hope this helps,

Sanjeev

LSMW using BAPI method for ME21N

Hi to all,
I am using LSMW BAPI method for the transaction ME21N Iam able to post a PO document successfully, But in my flat file I have a header and followed by item in the same line, while I was posting with same header for different line items its posting different PO's for different line items but suppose it has to post one document with multiple items.
My flat file fields are like this : (where as ABCD my header and rest are line items) I am using only one structure 'podata' in LSMW and I am not using any identifier.
header--Line items
A B C D S P Q W E X
A B C D 1 D 3 F K L
Business Object -     BUS2012
Method                -    CREATEFROMDATA1
Message Type    -    PORDCR1
Basic Type         -     PORDCR101
As per my requirement if I have multiple line items for the same header then only one PO should be posted.
Could you suggest me, How can I achieve this.
Thanks,
Lahari

Hi Jurgen,
Thanks for your reply.
As poer your suggestion, I passed my flat file data into a single file and in the begin of transaction, I divided the data into 2 structures as Header & Item.
Still I am unable to achieve the desired results, can you please elaborate more on how SAP internally joins the structures again.
To be more clear my flat file data look like this :
217836     NB     1826162667     0127     00   1     LEAN SIX SIGMA PRIMER     MRO     Z     4.00     EA     60.00     1     EA
217836     NB     1826162667     0127     00     2     LEAN SIX SIGMA PRIMER     MRO     Z     4.00     EA     860.00     1     EA
217836     NB     1826162668     0127     00     1     LEAN SIX SIGMA PRIMER     MRO     Z     4.00     EA     160.00     1     EA
217836     NB     1826162668     0127     00     2     LEAN SIX SIGMA PRIMER     MRO     Z     4.00     EA     560.00     1     EA
The bold ones being header and the remaining Items, the underlined field is PO number.
In normal process this file is considered to have 4 records, and tries to create 4 PO's.But my requirement is to create only 2 PO's with 2 items each.
Thanks.

reagrds,
sunil k airam.

In the HEADDATA structure, STORAGE_VIEW should also be set as 'X' , in order to update storage location data
for example
BAPI_HEAD-STORAGE_VIEW = 'X'.
Also, PUR_STATUS corresponds to field MARA-MSTAE whose domain has value table T141, therefore values in the field are checked against T141

Creating a material with its classification using BAPI's

Hi there,
I am creating a function module to create a material master using BAPI's. I am using the BAPI 'BAPI_MATERIAL_SAVEDATA'. However I did not find a way to pass the classification details to this BAPI. As I need to create a classification data along with material basic data, can you please tell me how I can do it. Are there any BAPI's which I can use to create classification data?
Please help, I have stuck here from a longer time.
Thanks,
Ganesh.

hi
good
Use FM 'BAPI_OBJCL_GETDETAIL' to retrieve the classification data.
Import params:
1. Object key : give the material number
2. Object table : give material master table i.e. MARA
3. Class Num: Give the class name from which u have to fetch the characteristic data
4. Class type: give '001' for material
You will get the classification data in the following tables:
ALLOCVALUESNUM
ALLOCVALUESCHAR
ALLOCVALUESCURR
This should be helpful, do get back in case of any queries.
thanks

Problem in Storing ByteArray(Value) with String (Key) using put method

Hello Folks:
I wish to store a byte array with associated with a String. For this I use the put method in Java which stores put(Object key, Object value). I have written a piece of code which works but I am not able to understand it. Its not outputing what I want but something else.
I guess, I have some ignorance.
When I compile using
$javac testing.java propsput.java
$java testing
I get the following output.
Bytes Array:[B@1372a1a
I understand that B stands for Bytes array. Also, If I change the String I get the same thing. If I modify the code for Integer array
and store some Integer array I get [I@1372a1a.
I fail to understand why I am getting this 1372a1a again and again.
Instead where is my array.
May be I am not using the method getValue correctly.
Thank You very much for your help
Regards
//testing.java
import java.io.*;
import java.util.*;
public class testing{
public static void main(String args[]){
propsput headers=new propsput();
String s="Let me See how you do it";
byte buf[]=s.getBytes();
headers.put("Bytes Array",buf);
//propsput.java
import java.util.*;
import java.io.*;
public class propsput{
public void put (String key, byte[] value) throws IllegalArgumentException{
HashMap _props =new HashMap();
_props.put(key, value);
Set set =_props.entrySet();
Iterator i=set.iterator();
while(i.hasNext())
Map.Entry me=(Map.Entry) i.next();
System.out.print(me.getKey()+":");
System.out.println(me.getValue());
----------------------------------------------------------------

Hi Thanks for your help.
But I have included your method in the propsput class and also using it like this in the propsput class.
while(i.hasNext())
Map.Entry me=(Map.Entry) i.next();
System.out.print(me.getKey()+":");
byte a[]=me.getValue();
showBytes(a);
But while compiling with javac I get the following error:
propsput.java:24: incompatible types
found : java.lang.Object
required: byte[]
byte a[]=me.getValue();
Please let me know how should I use it so as to print my String.
Well, its still not clear in the previous code (my First Message) that why I am gettinng "1372a1a" everytime. (Even if I change the String. When I change the array to be an Integer array I get [I@1372a1a )
Othewise in the case of Strings I get ( [B@1372a1a)
Bytes Array:[B@1372a1a
Thanks and Regards

Help in Quotation creation using BAPI

I want to create Quotation with reference to Inquiry. I am using std BAPI 'BAPI_QUOTATION_CREATEFROMDATA2' but I am not able to crate with reference to Inquiry. If you see the std tcode VA21 there is option to create with reference; there you can put the inquiry number. This functionality, I want to implement using BAPI.
Can anybody tell me how to achieve this.
Thanks in stack

Nilesh,
There is a problem if you use the BAPI 'BAPI_QUOTATION_CREATEFROMDATA2', the table flow will not be maintained (i.e) it will not maintain the document flow which you can view using
VA13(Inquiry)->Document flow(F5). It will allow you to create any number of quotations for the same inquiry. This will be the case even if you use the BAPI 'BAPI_QUOTATION_CREATEFROMDATA'.
The alternative you can use is use a BDC program for just creating the Quotation(VA21). Then use the BAPI 'BAPI_CUSTOMERQUOTATION_CHANGE' to change the quotation. I have done this before and it is working perfectly fine. Hope this solves your issue.

Need Help With Military DTD Using FrameMaker 8

Fellow Forum Members,
I hope someone out there with experience in using Department of Defense DTDs with FrameMaker can contribute to this thread.
Attached is the MIL STD 400051-2 DTD that needs to play with FrameMaker. Does anyone out there know where I could find FrameMaker templates already setup that comply and play with the MIL STD 400051-2 DTD standard? If the Department of Defense is freely distributing the MIL STD 400051-2 DTD, shouldn't somebody in the Department of Defense also be providing MIL STD 400051-2 FrameMaker Templates for free that are already setup? I would greatly appreciate if anyone out there could provide an online source where I could download MIL STD 400051-2 FrameMaker templates.
Lastly, can anyone out there clarify what the purpose of the entities are inside the "Charant" and "Boilerplate" folders? The Department of Defense does not provide a readme file that define what the "Charant" and "Boilerplate" folders are about.
Any info will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I'll answer the specifics that I know about your questions, but please look at the post from Srini for additional info:
1) Do i need to do full export using SYS/SYSTEM user.
exp80 system/manager file=c:full.dmp log=c:\full.txt full=y consistent=yA full export will move as much information (metadata/data) as possible. In order to do a full export/import, you need to do this from a
privileged account. A privileged account is one with EXP_FULL_DATABASE for export and IMP_FULL_DATABASE for import.
2) Will there be any data corruption while export.The data in the objects that you are exporting is being read, nothing is written to user data. I'm not sure what this is available in 8.0.6,
but if you need a consistent export, look to see if consistent=y is available in 8.0.6. All this means is that the dump file created will have
consistent data in it.
3) Is export/import the only method of migration/upgradation.If you are changing hardware, the only supported way from 8.0 to 10.2.0.4, that I know of, is using exp/imp.
Hope this helps.

Help with Photo Gallery using XML file

I am creating a photo gallery using Spry. I used the Photo Gallery Demo (Photo Gallery Version 2) on the labs.adobe.com website. I was successful in creating my site, and having the layout I want. However I would like to display a caption with each photo that is in the large view.
As this example uses XML, I updated my file to look like this:
<photos id="images">
            <photo path="aff2010_01.jpg" width="263" height="350" thumbpath="aff2010_01.jpg" thumbwidth="56"
               thumbheight="75" pcaption="CaptionHere01"></photo>
            <photo path="aff2010_02.jpg" width="350" height="263" thumbpath="aff2010_02.jpg" thumbwidth="75"
               thumbheight="56" pcaption="CaptionHere02"></photo>
            <photo path="aff2010_03.jpg" width="350" height="263" thumbpath="aff2010_03.jpg" thumbwidth="75"
               thumbheight="56" pcaption="CaptionHere03"></photo>
</photos>
The images when read into the main file (index.asp) show the images in the thumbnail area and display the correct image in the picture pain. Since I added the pcaption field to the XML file, how do I get it to display? The code in my index.html file looks like this:

rest of the code here:
        <div id="previews">
            <div id="controls">
                <ul id="transport">
                    <li><a href="#" class="previousBtn" title="Previous">Previous</a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="playBtn" title="Play/Pause" id="playLabel"><span class="playLabel">Play</span><span class="pauseLabel">Pause</span></a></li>
                    <li><a href="#" class="nextBtn" title="Next">Next</a></li>
                </ul>
            </div>
            <div id="thumbnails" spry:region="dsPhotos" class="SpryHiddenRegion">
                <div class="thumbnail" spry:repeat="dsPhotos"><a href="{path}"><img alt="" src="{thumbpath}"/></a><br /></div>
                <p class="ClearAll"></p>
            </div>
        </div>
        <div id="picture">
            <div id="mainImageOutline"><img id="mainImage" alt="main image" src=""/><br /> Caption: {pcaption}</div>
        </div>
        <p class="clear"></p>
    </div>
Any help with getting the caption to display would be greatly appreciated. The Caption {pcaption} does not work,

Help with Switch statements using Enums?

Hello, i need help with writing switch statements involving enums. Researched a lot but still cant find desired answer so going to ask here. Ok i'll cut story short.
Im writing a calculator program. The main problem is writing code for controlling the engine of calculator which sequences of sum actions.
I have enum class on itself. Atm i think thats ok. I have another class - the engine which does the work.
I planned to have a switch statement which takes in parameter of a string n. This string n is received from the user interface when users press a button say; "1 + 2 = " which each time n should be "1", "+", "2" and "=" respectively.
My algorithm would be as follows checking if its a operator(+) a case carry out adding etc.. each case producing its own task. ( I know i can do it with many simple if..else but that is bad programming technique hence im not going down that route) So here the problem arises - i cant get the switch to successfully complete its task... How about look at my code to understand it better.
I have posted below all the relevant code i got so far, not including the swing codes because they are not needed here...
ValidOperators v;
public Calculator_Engine(ValidOperators v){
          stack = new Stack(20);
          //The creation of the stack...
          this.v = v;
public void main_Engine(String n){
     ValidOperators v = ValidOperators.numbers;
                *vo = vo.valueOf(n);*
     switch(v){
     case Add: add(); break;
     case Sub: sub(); break;
     case Mul: Mul(); break;
     case Div: Div(); break;
     case Eq:sum = stack.sPop(); System.out.println("Sum= " + sum);
     default: double number = Integer.parseInt(n);
                   numberPressed(number);
                   break;
                  //default meaning its number so pass it to a method to do a job
public enum ValidOperators {
     Add("+"), Sub("-"), Mul("X"), Div("/"),
     Eq("="), Numbers("?"); }
     Notes*
It gives out error: "No enum const class ValidOperators.+" when i press button +.
It has nothing to do with listeners as it highlighted the error is coming from the line:switch(v){
I think i know where the problem is.. the line "vo = vo.valueOf(n);"
This line gets the string and store the enum as that value instead of Add, Sub etc... So how would i solve the problem?
But.. I dont know how to fix it. ANy help would be good
Need more info please ask!
Thanks in advance.

import java.util.*;

Help with swap images using rollovers

I have a website created using DW CS5. Recently purchased FW CS5 to help with web graphics and design. I am trying to create a list of numbers that will swap with images. The intial page would simply be a list of numbers and 1 static image. Each number, when hovered will change the image with another. I've attempted this by first using DW and not having much success with FW either.
If able to complete this using FW, is it possible to export the file for use in DW? Then insert into an AP Div?

You're over-complicating it.
Simply hit File>Save once you're done in photoshop.
