ABAP:File = Write Up to 300 Records in file

HI friends,
One quick question on ABAP file handling
Can you let me know the logic , When user writes 300 Records in a file and when he tries to write 301 records the select screen should through an error message saying "only 300 records can be downloaded in a file for one run'
I have added below loop in the code, but in the below loop i have given the values of "MATNR, TEXTID, TEXT_A, SPRA,cTEST_T" as some dummy values.....
but i dont want this dummy vaules , it shuld pick whatever user is given
wa_out-matnr = 'C100'.
wa_out-textid = '100'.
wa_out-text_A = 'sssssssssssssssssssssssssssss'.
wa_out-spras = 'RU'.
wa_out-text_t = 'ddddddddddddddddddddddddddddd'.
do 300 times.
wa_out-sno = sy-index + 1.
append wa_out to t_out.
enddo.
clear wa_out.
Can you help

Hi
When you are writing into a file based on the content of an internal table, you can use sy-tabix to check if its <= 300, then exit the loop and close the file.
For eg:
loop at itab.
if sy-tabix <= 300.
transfer itab to lf_file.
endif.
endloop.
close lf_file.

File Write Keyword Tag don't create a xmp file

Hi,
I use PSE 8 with WIN7 64 Ultimate.
When I used the File > Write Keyword Tag command, no xmp file is created. I saw, that the filename was renamed to xxx_edTMP-1.NEF for a short time and than the original name is show. The changedate of the file is not changed Sometimes the file is not renamed the new name is xxxx_edTMP-1.NEF.
Why?
Nils

I assume that you are trying to write tags assigned to a Raw original.
There is a bug that sometimes PSE does not write tags (or other metadata) to .xmp for Raw files. This usually depends on the type of file; this command never seems to work for .NEF files.
A workaround is to use John R Ellis's psedbtool

File Write Adapter, First record as a Column Header

Hi,
Using File adapter of type WRITE i m creating a file.
I want to include the column header also as a first record in File.
One way i can think of Creating one record manually and append as a first record in the File write variable.
Is there any other simple way or standard way to do it??

To have fixed header every time before it writes the data, i think you should have file with header and data, then use it to configure file write in JCA adapter.
This will create a schema with static header and dynamic results to the schema file.
So that everytime you will have the header then it write the data below that.
Note: I have done this some years back, i wrote here with from my memory.
Let me know if you still have problem, wll try to create a simple example and share.
Thanks,
Vijay

Write records to file???

i know how to write lines of information to a file and output them but how do you go about writing records in one file and then retrieving them for use within a program, if someone could help by posting some simple code, or explain where i could find this id appreciate it
Thx

If you are refering to Records as objects, then you could serialize them into a file. You would create an ObjectOutputStream object, then call writeObject() for each object you want to write out. Then, using ObjectInputStream you would read them back in with readObject(). You can also write the number of objects in the file first by calling writeInt() before calling writeObject() in a loop. Reading would then be the exact opposite, call readInt() to determine the # of objects in the file, then calling readObject() x number of times.

Write Record to File

Hi all
I am now doing a java program to query result from SQL Server and write the result to a file.
My problem is that our SQL Server stores Chinese wordings with unicode, after the program query the result and it fails to write those Chinese wordings in the file. I have tried to use ObjectOutputStream or DataOutPutStream with method like writeBytes, writeChars or WriteObject, but all are failed to create a ASCII file that can view the Chinese wordings. Although those words can be viewed by using Sytem.out.print().
I think the problem is related to write the result to file or create the file, can any one help?
Thanks

Mailing Error records in file-to-file Sp14

Hi All,
Can anyone suggest me how to send error records to the concerned person when I'm doing File-to-File scenario.
According my understanding I should configure SMTP adapter.but if anyone confirms this and suggest any process would be a great help for me.
Regards,
Venu

Hi Venu,
        Great to know that my answers helped you.
well what i may suggest that this was one of the many solutions but not the only one, if you go through sdn you will see other approaches as using a DOM structure
/people/swaroopa.vishwanath/blog/2005/06/29/generic-approach-for-validating-incoming-flat-file-in-sap-xi--part-ii (part 1 and part 2).This i am sending not to confuse you with many validation approaches but to help you understsnad that it can be done in many ways.
what i would request you to do is:
1. Generally files are validated from 3rd party systems like banking servers , legacy etc. So if your client asks you to validate the incoming file and if the existing landscape does not do any data validation and there is no standard data validation tools within the system lanscape, then one should go for these validations.
2.Upto a certain level you can generlise these validations after that you need to take it as a case to case basis, as how can you generise you source and target.
3.I strongly suggest you to consult your Team members/Architects if this is really required to be validated in SAP XI.
NOW BOTH YOUR QUESTIONS,
<i>Issue for 1.
They have mentioned in a document by using Java Mapping program we can segrigate Valid and Invalid messages, here do we need to write any Function modules ?
</i>
look here the author wants to say that he picks up the file as Record
          |
        Row
so that he picks all files and none is rejected in content conversion because of bad structure.The file after being processed as record-row goes to the module chain of file adapter and the EJB is called(page 8), after being validated it is passed or rejected.So
we need a java module to be written which will do this validations, but ejb was not within the scope of that document. No Its a ejb module and not a Function module.
<i>Issue for 2.
How to handle this bcz if we get an error while processing the records(Idocs) at sap side do we need to handle in XI as a different scenario or direct from ABAP end we send a mail to legacy people</i>
No, i think abap can and should handle this, as they are sending the data, so if an idoc is coming in sap xi it should be validated and send.So you need to take a call on this and discuss with abap consultants, if a validations is needed for the objects send by them.
This is what happened in my last implementaion wherein data from R3 was handled by abap.
Hope i have helped you again and have a great day!

HELP: Appending new records to File containing 1 Record

Hi, im transferring records to a file, the first line of the file contains the headers (used 'NO END OF LINE'). The problem is that when I write the data records to the file, the first record continues from the end of the Headers line, hence i have a record missing in my statement.

ORA-29285: file write error

Hi,
We are getting this error ORA-29285: file write error while writing to a text file using utl_file.putf package.
Using fopen funtion in code to open file as below:
V_FILEHANDLE:=UTL_FILE.FOPEN(v_file_path,'ABC','W', max_linesize);
Here max linesize = 32000, so as far as I think, limitation on length of records while writing the file is not an issue.
Further code is written as:
UTL_FILE.PUTF(V_FILEHANDLE, v_text1||'|'||v_text2||'|');
UTL_FILE.NEW_LINE(V_FILEHANDLE);
UTL_FILE.FFLUSH(V_FILEHANDLE); -- This is called after every 500 lines are written to the file.
UTL_FILE.FCLOSE(V_FILEHANDLE);
We are encountering this error every now and then, and strangely this gets resolved when we re-run the program and file gets written successfully.
Can someone please help on this please?

UDF - Removing Header Record from File

Hi Team,
In my file(File Content Conversion) to ABAP server proxy scenario...
The source File structure is like this...
KUNNR|Matnr|Description----->(This is Hearder Record.Each File contains this header record.)
1001|0077321|Special Materials
1002|0077323|Raw Material
File adapter will picks the file , In Message Mapping The first record is the Header Record from the above file structure.So I need to remove the Header Record.
Can we handle this requirement with any FCC parameter ;I think we can do it with the help of UDF in MessageMapping?
Can anybody ghelp me the sample code for this.
Thanks.

Hi,
You can use Document Offset in FCC to specify the number of lines that are to be ignored at the beginning of the document.

Linking Records to Files on a Server

I work for an engineering firm and I have a table in my Access 2002 database that holds data regarding engineering drawings (i.e, drawing #, drawing size, project #, etc.).
I have a .PDF file for each drawing and these .PDF files are located on one of the servers at work. Each record in my table (each drawing) has an associated .PDF fle, or each record could have more than one .PDF file associated with it.
I need to link each record in my table (each drawing) to its .PDF file, which is on a server. I've added a 'text' column to my table and I also have the full path to where the actual .PDF files are.
I need help on how I can get the .PDF file name for each record and insert it into my table.
Can anyone please help????
Thanks in advance.

The connection between a record and its file is that each record (each engineering drawing data) has it's associated electronic file in a .PDF format. So for example, if there's a record, let's say drawing number 123, there's a .PDF file for it on the server called 123.PDF.
When I say I need to grab the file name, I need to actually get the text '123.PDF' and insert it into a column in the table for the record that has 123 as the drawing number.
So for example, I have a table that has data about all engineering drawings. One of the columns in this table is called 'pathToFile'. I have a folder on a server that has all of the electronic files for each actual drawing in a folder. I need help with syntax and algorithm to write code to loop through each record in my table, get the drawing number and based on the drawing number, go to the folder on the server and get it's .PDF file and insert in into my 'pathToFile' column. So for the example above, if the drawing number is 123, then the entry in my 'pathToFile' column for that record would be '\\server_name\folder_name\123.pdf'.
I hope this makes sense.

File with 3 types of record

I've a entry file with 3 types of record. The first field of each record tell the type. When XI receive this file it must be validate some fields. It's possible management this file in XI? how?
very thanks

Validating the field write some UDF.
If valid then map & if not valid you can raise some exception in Mapping
in case PI 7.1 this feature is provided using the XML Validation which compares with the XSD.
You need to create the FCC structure that will generate the XML before sending to XI. You create the Mapping and define the UDF which will do the validation and call the SAP using Lookup (search the sdn for RFC Lookup or DB Lookup ).

Import info record from file.

the client require a programm to import info record from file.especially regard the price. can anyone give me clue about the development. use BDC programm, or import to a table directly?

hi,
Ask your ABAPer, he will develope the BDC program for data uploading. or else you can use LSMW also to upload condition data in Info. Records. in LSMW we dont required any ABAP code.

Edited by: metaroot on Feb 18, 2008 6:39 PM

The short answer to your question: use out=new BufferedWriter(fwrite) inside the do loop as well.The only difference that would make would be to make the problem worse. It is poor practice. Stream stacks should be constructed once for the life of the stream.
What he needs to do is close his stream outside the loop, possibly calling flush() where he presently has close().
The more relevant answer is: Why are you not wrapping the user-friendly PrintWriter class, wrapping it around the BufferedWriter?Possibly because he doesn't like the fact that PrintWriter swallows exceptions? which makes it less user-friendly IMO.
The println and print methods are very useful, and do not need closing between loop iterations.Neither does anything else.
By the way,you say that without a close() the BufferedWriter doesn't output to the file.I don't know: I never used/tried it.Even if it doesn't, it will surely output after you come out of the loop.If you don't want to use a PrintWriter, why don't you investigate this?Posting guesses here isn' t really much help, especially about something you've never used. A BufferedWriter has a buffer and it doesn't write anything until the buffer is full, you flush it, or your close it.
