Hi Svetlin,
Thanks for your response, still i am not clear what all customization i need to do, to get the desired file from FDTA tcode.
Any how i have created my own program and linked that program in FBZP tcode.
File is getting created in Application server and able to download it from FDTA tcode.
But the problem is the downloaded file format is not coming in desired fromat.
I created a file like this this i can see it in AL11 tcode.
#1(Record1)
F1(Value1)
F2(value2)
F3(Value32
#2(Record2)
F1(Value1)
F2(value2)
F3(Value3)
When i am downloading from tcode FDTA all the records are getting written in one line.
where as i need it in above specified format.
I am using even page code as 1100.
Any idea is tehre any page code i need to updated other than 1100.
Thanks,

Create XML File in HIPAA 834 file structure

Hi ,
We have to create XML file in HIPAA 834 file format , Do we have any build in component/Adapter for this . It something like calling that build in omponent and map the XML elements to the source field and ODI should be able to create the XML file in HIPPA 834 structure format .
As of now we are using complex file to create aXML file in this format . We are looking for some option that could reduce this manual work

If I understand correctly, Basically you need to create the xsd for HIPAA 834 document
This can be done by software in SOA called Document Editor- Oracle B2B
This is around 10GB installable. in this you can create the xsd by creating the ecs file and then exporting to xsd

ABAP CUSTOM PROGRAMS vs SOX - What is your best approach?

SOX defines you must put in place controls to be sure your users can do only those activities wich are not able to create a risk for your company assets.
You can use GRC AC to get clean and stay clean, but the problem is in your custom developments. Indirectly called transactions are not included in the transaction start check, so I think you must use "authority checks" to validate either stantdard authorization objetcs (sy-tcode, company code...) or custom authorization objects before to call a transacction/BAPI inside a custom program to be sure the user has the right permissions to complete this task.
Should i validate any single authoritation object defined in SU24 for each single transaction called Indirectly?
Any other quick win approach?
thx.

Manuel,
There are various types of controls that could be put in place for accomplishing this. Below are some things you could consider to mitigate this risk as I have done in the past which has been sufficent to auditors.
1) Have a solid review process for Functional Design Specs (FDS) reviews of RICEFW objects being developed into your SAP enviroment and be sure to have the process and review documented. This process will allow you to proactively seek out potential issues before they are coded to senstive areas where the potential risk to financial reporting could arise.
2) Implement coding standards for Security such as use of Program Auth Groups, Table Auth Groups, and implement certian SAP notes to secure S_DEVELOP object properly. Refer to https://websmp110.sap-ag.de/securitynotes for security notes.
3) Have a review/monitoring process in place to review access and authorizations to critical objects and transactions. GRC AC is one way to approach this.
You can use abap program "RSABAPSC : Statistical program analysis to find ABAP language commands" to seek out Authority-Checks in custom development as part of a quality review.
Thanks,

Load of hierarchies from R/3 via flat file: how to generate the flat file?

Hello,
I need to build a custom extractor for a hierarchy. The hierarchy exists in R/3, but there's no standard datasource to extract it. I know I can upload it via flat file, but I have a question related to this.
Does anyone know if there's a program (standard or custom by SAP) or function module in R/3 which allows me to generate that flat file, with the required format by BW?
I would appreciate very much any help about this topic
Thanks in advance

In CO-PA there is a way to generate Hierarchy Extractors (see Note 422175 for more details). With a Custom Program you generate a specific DataSource.
Hope it helps

A program that creates a JAR file

Hello,
I want my program to generate a JAR file with the content of a folder, by I just don't know how to to this.
I don't find any help about this and I wonder if it is possible.
Can someone help me ?
Does someone know if it is possible to create a jar in a program, and if yes, how to do ?
Thanks a lot
Lio

(I think Lio wanted to create a .jar file in his program, rather than an external program that could create files for him?) The java.util.jar package has classes for creating jar files. They are quite easy to use. You can use this code as a reference:
http://javaalmanac.com/egs/java.util.zip/CreateZip.html
(nevermind the fact that the code creates a Zip file rather than a Jar file; the API is so similar you can just replace every occurence of 'zip' with 'jar')

RWRBE60.exe error when generating a report to a file format

Hi people,
I'm employed as a consultant by a major Petrochemical facility in South Africa.
My problem is as follows:
Our product dispatching system contains a number of reports which need to be generated to a file format (either PDF, RTF or Text).
Whenever one of the users attempts to do the above in the Reports Previewer
(by clicking on "File" -> "Generate to File" -> "Text"); the following error is displayed:
"RWRBE60.exe - Application Error. The instruction at 0x00281036 referenced memory at 0x00000000. The memory could not be read."
This error only occurs when they attempt to run a report through the Application itself.
I've recompiled and executed the same report(s) using Reports Builder 6, and it generates the file(s) with no problems whatsoever!
Only when running said reports through the Production application, does this error appear.
Your feedback will be highly appreciated!
Thanks!

This certainly looks like a bug, but you should probably check and make sure that you're on the latest patch set (or at least patch set 10 - Reports 6.0.8.19) before contacting support and pursuing further.
Hope this helps,
Danny

How to get TestStand30 to generate a XML file compatible with teststand2.01

TestStand 2.01 came with an example sequence file and modelsupport.DLL that would generate XML report files. It had a particular format that was hardcoded in the DLL. Then TestStand 3.0 came allong and NI decided to put it in the standard process model and change the code that creates it. Doing so, they changed the format of the XML file. This format is now based on the file Report.XSD (XML schema file). TestStand 2.01 didnot use a XSD file. My question is, is there anybody out there that knows enough about these XSD file to creat one that would make TestStand 3.0 generate the same file format as the TestStand 2.01 did?

Hi
The XSD (XML schema file) just defines the legal building blocks of an XML document. TestStand does not modify its XML output based on changes to the XSD file.
Unfortunately, currently there is no method to make TestStand 3.0 generate a 2.0.1 format of XML output.
You can continue using the old method of generating XML reports without issues.
Hope this helps

Statement of Accounts Output to PDF file format and email to customers

Hi,
Would appreciate inputs from contributors on the issues/requirements below.
I have two requirements regarding the output of Customer Statement Of Accounts (form):
1. The output is to be in Adobe PDF file format;
2. The file has to be emailed automatically to customers based on the email address maintained in the Customer Master;
I envisage that the program would be executed online (on demand) or in the background via scheduled jobs. Due to complexity of the customer's requirements, we will be using a customized program to generate the form.
I am not familiar with both requirements. Would appreciate contribution on how to set up the above.

Hello,
In FIBF transaction code, you can configure the same
SAMPLE_PROCESS_00002840
If you do not think this is not suffice your requirement, you can take help from ABAPer and create you own function module.
Refer SAP Note. 836169 how payment advice is being emailed.
It will emailed in PDF format.
Once you run F.27 the entries should flow to SOST.

Problem with the DME file format MT101

Hello Experts,
We are generating the DME file format MT101 for bank data transfer for Portugal with program SAPLZFPAYM_SWIFT_PT .But sadly we found that the line 71A:SHA is missed.
Noting that this problem occurs with payment method "U" which is similar to payment method "T" except the two fields "EU Internal Transfer" and "IBAN required" which are not ticked in transaction FBZP.
When we use the payment method "T" it works fine but with payment method "U" the line 71A:SHA is missed.
I made some tests and tried to find if those two mentionned fields are causing the problem or not and I found that this not the reason. It's related to other problem
Any Ideas would be highly appreciable.

Hello Experts,
No idea about this issue ?

Unicode file formats ( open dataset)

Hi,
We are sending Unicode file with encoding as UTF-8( open dataset) containing Greek character to Legacy system. Legacy system( Sql server) is not able to understand this file format. As a workaround legacy side team coverts the file to Unicode UCS-2 using notepad ( by selecting encoding option as Unicode) and then uploading it to SQL server..
Is there anyway to convert the UTF-8 file to other Unicode file format ( say UCS-2 )within SAP or generate the desired file format.

Hi Martin,
Thanks for the help!!!
I tried to convert the file format from UTF-8 to UCS-2 using the methods of the class mentioned but it didn't fulfill my requirement. I have Greek character in UTF-8 format and when I convert it to any other other format then Greek character are displayed as #.
Problem is legacy SQL server don't support UTF-8 format. I tried open data set with binary mode & also legacy text mode with all available code pages but result were not fruitful.
( Program RSCP_CONVERT_FILE to convert code page - I used target code page as all possible UTF* , UCD* & Greek code page but no luck ).
I am just wondering whether SAP can convert UTF-8 to UCS-2 or not. Other option I am thinking is to have the file converted by Unix script that is application server external command which can be executed via FTP.

BAI flat file format?

Hello All,
Can any one tell me, can we process the BAI falt file in PI7.1 system.
If any one done this requirement,Please let me know how to do this scenario.
Thanks and Regards,
Phani Kumar M

Hi Chinna,
This file is used for SAP financial purposes and this does interact mainly with the Banks. Banks have different format like bai, bai2 etc. BAI and BAI2 formats differ in their level of information detail. BAI does not separate out the incoming check line items by invoice subtotal reference. Conversely, BAI2 splits the check total into separate invoice references and associated payment amounts. As a result, your hit rate percentage of payment-invoice matching from each transmission is likely to be higher when using BAI2 rather than BAI formats.
Now coming to your question that you are getting a bai file and you need send to sap. Usually how we approach this is we will read the legacy file with file adapter and then will convert into the bai file format and drop the converted file on a shared drive. There are standard programs in sap which picks this file and loads the data in sap. If your client has different structure then the abaper may need to change the program accordingly.
The Bai file format you can take a look here:
https://businessonline.huntington.com/common/cms/help/BAI1Technical%20Ref%20Manual.pdf
Also please look into this help:
Note 86952 - El. bank statemt:BAI format (you can see the standard programs here)
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_45b/helpdata/en/0d/1a4b6e5733d1118b3f0060b03ca329/frameset.htm
The bottom line is the standard program in SAP expects this format and you using PI will make this file from your legacy file. How it loads into sap can be find from any of your FI consultant, he will be aware of all this.

How to generate a empty file in AL11 using ABAP and unix command

Hi Experts,
when load infopackage triggers it will search file from AL11 if file is available it will get loaded successfully. When there is no file in AL11 error while opening file (orgin A) and the load will fail. At this level i have to write a abap code using unix command to generate a empty file.
Is there any way to achieve the above requirement.
Thanks
Vara

Hi,
If i get your requirement properly then you want to create a blank file if there is no file on the application server so that your infopackage does not fail, am i correct.
If this is your requirement then this can be easily done if you use process chain to load the file via infopackage. Follow the following steps:
1. Add a ABAP program before the infopackage and check if the file is present on the server or not. Use a simple ABAP statement OPEN DATASET <FNAME>. Check the SY-SUBRC after this statement if it is not 0 then it means that the file does not exist on the application server.
2. Once you have established that the file is not present create a flat file using a code similar to the below one
OPEN DATASET FILENAME FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE
MESSAGE D_MSG_TEXT.
IF SY-SUBRC NE 0.
WRITE: 'File cannot be opened. Reason:', D_MSG_TEXT.
EXIT.
ENDIF.
* Transferring Data
LOOP AT INT_table.
TRANSFER INT_table-field1 TO FILENAME.
ENDLOOP.
* Closing the File
CLOSE DATASET FILENAME.
3. Add your infopackage step after this ABAP program in your process chain.
I hope this helps.

Kush Kashyap

How to insert abap code in LSMW generated program?

hi,
i m working on LSMW for loading data in SAP
i would like to insert abap code into the generated program....
it's because i have 1 BKPF segment (header data), 2 BSEG segments, but i cannot define rules by customizing for the second BSEG segment(LSMW doesn't permitt).
i already tried to insert code directly into the program, but obviously it disapears at each time i generate the program.
i saw that apparently a code insertion has already be made into this program and the subject of this insertion is to define rules for the second BSEG (exactly what i want to do....) and this modification doesn't disapear at new prog generation.....
Any idea ?

Hi
Why dont you use the FORM provided by LSMW
To use this please do the following
1.Goto option <b>Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules</b>
2.Goto menu <b>EXTRAS->LAYOUT->Form Routines</b>
Here you will now get many options like
Global Data
Begin of Transaction
Begin of Processing
Begin of Record
like wise the End of these also.
Please put a breakpoint and check where you want to insert your code.
Note:
This is only for the Conversion Program and does not affect the main program used to update the Standard Tables
Hi , I was reading your earlier post .. It seems that you have worked on EMIGALL. Consider a similar situation, it is like writing the code in the events till CALL01...
Thanks
