ABAP Dataflow using FTP data transfer method

Hi,
I am facing this error while executing the ABAP dataflow, the datastore configuration has FTP as data transfer method.
I wanted to know if the ABAP program is generated succesfully and the error is while executing the ABAP program or there is an issue with the generation of ABAP program itself... Please help me understand the issue.
Since I am unable to attach the doc, please see the error message below.

Hi,
I am really not clear with your question. This is the first time i am executing the ABAP interface with FTP data transfer method. The madap8004 is the FTP server name. and the path is where the file whould be generated I belive. Is it the problem with any read/write permissions on the server?

FTP data transfer

Hi!
I have some questions regarding FTP data transfer and programing message fields in SAP
1) How can I program the message fields in SAP?
How much effort do I invest on this issue?
2) We are about to replace our FTP-transfer in SAP-system from manuall to automatic (from location/city A --> to location/city B).
The current approach is/was to start batch-input manually.
How can we do this issue? Is there some ABAP-knowledge necessary or is that typical SAP-Basis (administrative) task?
Thank you very much
regards
Axel

Hi!
Are you saying that you want to upload text file using ftp, and run batch input automatically from executing ABAP program?
I would like to find the automatic way for FTP-data transfer frorm location 1 to location 2. My current solution based on manual execution of Batch-input, that transfers/pushes the data from location 1 to the location 2.
Thank you for your recommendation/information.

Two Data transfer methods

Hi Gurus
Can any body tell if i will be asked like What are two data transfer methods? Which is the preferred method and why?
thanks in advance
murali

Hi,
The two data transfer methods are PSA and IDoc. In PSA, the number of fields is limited to a maximum of 255 when using TRFCs to transfer data. The length of the data record is limited to 1962 bytes when you use TRFCs.

HT5287 If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?

If DVD Movies, Audio CD's and even burning CD and DVD's are not supported, what is the point of DVD & CD Sharing then? Wouldn't it just be better to remote in or use a thumb drive if it's only able to be used for data transfer?
Or am I missing the bigger picture?

As long as you have a Superdrive or an external burner/drive, burning, watching, installing, etc. from CD or DVD will work just fine. And so will sharing.

Data Transfer methods

Hi all,
Can anyone please explain me what are synchronous and asychronous data transfer methods?
Where are the settings to be done in R/3 to get data to BI ?
Thanks in advance

Data Transfer
Definition
Synchronous Data Transfer
Data is transferred directly (simultaneously, synchronously) from program to program via CPI-C communication.
Both communications partners must be available at the same time. Because the central SAP system in a typical SAP installation does not run round the clock, but the linked systems are frequently in operation 24 hours a day, asynchronous data transfer is necessary.
Synchronous data transfer has the following disadvantages:
Transfer is not possible is the partner system or the line is not available.
A data backlog in the reciever system causes a data backlog in the sender system. Processing in the application is delayed.
If a connection is broken, it may be necessary to perform a recovery in both systems.
Asynchronous Data Transfer
With asynchronous, or buffered, data transfer, data is temporarily stored in a sequential queue.
Asynchronous transfer has the following advantages:
Wait times in the sender system are avoided.
A recovery is automatically performed in the sender system.
Transfer need not be performed during online time. This avoids placing unnecessary load on the system and thus helps to reduce costs.
The Queue Application Programming Interface (Q-API) is an SAP interface for asynchronous data transfer.
Data is buffered sequentially and processed immediately or later by an asynchronously running process.
One possible processing method is to send data to an external partner system via CPI-C. Data units that belong together can be stored in accordance with transaction and sent to a communications partner.
Data is buffered in queues before it is transferred to the target system.
In an R/3 System, the queues are stored in a relational database. All R/3 database systems are supported.

Error importing Incoming Payments using the Data Transfer Workbench

Every time I try to import Incoming Payments using the Data Transfer Workbench I get an error that the Update Failed - Can not find this object in B1Application-defined or object-defined error65171. I'm using the 3 templates for Payments, Payments_Checks and Payments_Invoices. I've filled them out as I've seen in other postings in this forum. Based on the error message, I really can't tell what I'm doing wrong. Could someone please take a look at my files and let me know what might be causing the error?

Hi Suda,
As far as I can tell from the threads you forwarded (and other searches I've done on here), my files are correct. I tried filling out the templates exactly as explained in the first link (see my data below) but it still isn't working. It just gives me the same generic error.
Payments

1.................._SYS00000002152..1..................... 78.7
Payments_Invoices
RecordKey....DocEntry.....SumApplied
1..................31791..........78.7
Is it correct that the Payments file should not contain anything in the DocEntry column? (I know that the DocEntry in my Invoices file is the DocEntry of the Invoice). I have a feeling that I'm making a stupid mistake somewhere but I just can't figure it out. Any ideas?
I really appreciate your help with this.
Thanks,
Charlotte

Data transfer method

Hai gurus,
I am new to Abap field.
Kindly confirm whether i had to use LSMW or BDC for the following data transfer.
Production and Planning:
1) Bill of material creation-
2) Recipe creation-
3) Resource creation-
Quality Control.
1) Quality plan
2) Quality sampling procedure.
3) Quality info record.
4) Master Inspection Characteristics.
5) List of material with inspection status
6) Inspection Method.
7) Sampling plan
waiting for the positive reply.
Regards,
sc

Hi Sekar,
If you have huge number of records & the process is onetime process, you can go for LSMW, no ABAP knowledge is required for this.
Hope this helps.

Data Transfer methods between FPGA and RT

I have 10 values that I combined into a cluster that I want to send to the RT controller. The problem is if I just the read/write FPGA, I only get 1/10th of the data. I am assuming that it is the time taking to transfer from FPGA to RT. So I looked into DMA FIFO. When I use this, I do capture the data, but I notice jumps/shifts in the data. It's almost like the buffer fills up, and then dumps it at the last sec. To reduce this, I went from 10 values from the cluster to 2, and there were not shifts/jumps. The problem is I need all 10 values. So I'm wondering if I need to increase my DMA FIFO or if there is another meathod I need to use like Shared Varibles?
Thanks,
guilio

The one thing I still don't understand is what you mean by this "jump" in your data. Can you be a bit more specific about this? What I mean by jump. The elements coming from the FIFO in the RT controller will display on my array visual aid normally. Then you will see the data jump. Here is an example. I am bringing out 3 elements, X Y Z into an array. I'll read lets say 9 elements at a time. So my array, after I transform it into a 2D array for saving will look like this. [x y z;x y z;x y z]. At some points in time, the array will jump and look like this. [x y z;z x y ;z x y]. Then it will go back to how I expect it to look [z x y;x y z;x y z]. Right now, I am reading ~3000 elements. The elements remaining depends on what else is going on. If the visual aids are deleted, then elements remaining will never max out and thus, I won't get jumps. If I put visual aids in, then I get jumps because elements remaining maxes out. This leads me to believe that the FIFO is filling up and since it can't release all the information fast enough, then it just dumps it and fill it up again. The weird thing about it, It doesn't happen in a pattern (every 3000 elements). I tried putting them in seperate loops, it still slows things down. I tried queing/dequeing, still slows it down. I need to be able to read all elements fo all 3 DMA transfers at once. Maybe it will help us locate the problem. Otherwise, your DMA FIFO looks OK. Can you verify the number of times your data is written to the FIFO from the FPGA? When I put a clock in to measure loops speed, it was showing 8-9us. I can't have this no more than 10us or I will missed data. I would like to see a definite count of this. Then on the RT side, what does the "Elements Remaining" output look like? As before, elements remaining depends on what else is going on. If I just have the DMA FIFO's, then I can adjust the read elements number so all three don't max out, but as soon as I put something else in, it will max out. Since this is a FIFO we should be able to keep very close track of elements in and out.
Let me know if you need more info. I know about the FXP point transfer, unfotunately, not all my FXP elements are the same data type.
Thanks,
guilio

How to use FTP binding transfer?

Hi
I tried to make a BPEL process with File BC and FTP BC(transport)
But though files are stored in a archived folder and named sample_%d.txt"%u"_processed, there are no files in the folder of the FTP server.
I want to upload files into the ftp://localhost/upload. I read the wiki document and thought that it is not suitable to use FTPBindingMessage, then FTP binding type is transfer type.
Someone could point out ? what is the wrong.

How many types of ports are there which we use for data transfe in ale/idoc

friends let me know how many types of ports are there which we use for transfering
data in ale/idocs?

Hello,
you can use file port,trnasactional RFC port.FI you are using IDOC-XML conversion combination,then you can XML port also.
Thanks

FTP Data Transfer with SAPFTPA

Hello,
I would like to use the ftp-command "! ls -l".
As I use the " ! " in ftp, the command should be executed on the local pc/application server (not on the remote server).
When I use the rfc_destination SAPFTP the command runs perfect and I get as result (from FTP_COMMAND) all files listed.
But when I use the rfc_destination SAPFTPA I don't get the files listed.
Also no error
Any ideas, how can get the result from an " ! " command???
Much thx in advance
Christian

I decided to use the SM69 command.
So I use a direct OS command instead of the remote "local" command.

MyRIO memory, data transfer and clock rate

Hi
I am trying to do some computations on a previously obtained file sampled at 100Msps using myRIO module. I have some doubts regarding the same. There are mainly two doubts, one regarding data transfer and other regarding clock rate.
1. Currently, I access my file (size 50 MB) from my development computer hard drive in FPGA through DMA FIFO, taking one block consisting of around 5500 points at a time. I have been running the VI in emulation mode for the time being. I was able to transfer through DMA from host, but it is very slow (i can see each point being transferred!!). The timer connected in while loop in FPGA says 2 ticks for each loop, but the data transfer is taking long. There could be two reasons for this, one being that the serial cable used is the problem, the DMA happens fast but the update as seen to the user is slower, the second being that the timer is not recording the time for data trasfer. Which one could be the reason?
If I put the file in the myRIO module, I will have to compile it each and every time, but does it behave the same way as I did before with dev PC(will the DMA transfer be faster)? And here too, do I need to put the file in the USB stick? My MAX says that there is 293 MB of primary disk free space in the module. I am not able to see this space at all. If I put my file in this memory, will the data transfer be faster? That is, can I use any static memory in the board (>50MB) to put my file? or can I use any data transfer method other than FIFO? This forum (http://forums.ni.com/t5/Academic-Hardware-Products-ELVIS/myRIO-Compile-Error/td-p/2709721/highlight/... discusses this issue, but I would like to know the speed of the transfer too.
2. The data in the file is sampled at 100Msps. The filter blocks inside FPGA ask to specify the FPGA clock rate and sampling rate, i created a 200MHz derived clock and mentioned the same, gave sampling rate as 100Msps, but the filter is giving zero results. Do these blocks work with derived clock rates? or is it the property of SCTL alone?
Thanks a lot
Arya

Hi Sam
Thanks for the quick reply. I will keep the terminology in mind. I am trying analyse the data file (each of the 5500 samples corresponds to a single frame of data) by doing some intensive signal processing algorithms on each frame, then average the results and disply it.
I tried putting the file on the RT target, both using a USB stick and using the RT target internal memory. I thought I will write back the delay time for each loop after the transfer has occured completely, to a text tile in the system. I ran the code my making an exe for both the USB stick and RT target internal memory methods; and compiling using the FPGA emulater in the dev PC VI. (A screenshot of the last method is attached, the same is used for both the other methods with minor modifications. )To my surprise, all three of them gave 13 ms as the delay. I certainly expect the transfer from RT internal memory faster than USB and the one from the dev PC to be the slowest. I will work more on the same and try to figure out why this is happening so.
When I transferred the data file (50MB) into the RT flash memory, the MAX shows 50MB decrease in the free physical memory but only 20MB decrease in the primary disk free space. Why is this so? Could you please tell me the differences between them? I did not get any useful online resources when I searched.
Meanwhile, the other doubt still persists, is it possible to run filter blocks with the derived clock rates? Can we specify clock rates like 200MHz and sampling rates like 100Msps in the filter configuration window? I tried, but obtained zero results.
Thanks and regards
Arya
