Ack from SAP R/3 to file..

Hi,
We have a requirement in our scenario like this where in we are posting the PLM data from Windchill to SAP R/3,
From Windchill we are getting the data as an XML where we can read through file adapter and in the SAP side we are using RFC adapter to connect with SAP R/3, After updating the data in the R/3 we need some acknowledgment from the SAP R/3 system whether succesffully uploaded the data or not.. is it necessary to use BPM if so how can we get ACK the BPM's basically sends response when it delievers the data from XI server.
Can any one suggest the solution..
regards
Kishore

Hey,
You don't need to use a BPM for that..
Do this way..
Create two synchronous message interfaces...
OUTbound---give file as your output message and input message as your acknowledgement structure...
INbound---you don't need to do because your RFC acts at interface level..
In interface mapping use these too...and map between file structure and RFC request(sources)...and map between RFC response(have some data for ack purpose) and RFC response(target structures).
Configure file adapter at sender side and RFCa dapter at receiver end.
Hope this will do.
Thanks,
Vijaya.

FTP from SAP - how to make file UTF-8 format?

We are collecting data from SAP on a 4.7 system and sending it as an psv file to an external server using the FTP function modules . We do not have XI. After being told we were missing the BOM id I added this to the first line of the file.
DATA: l_len TYPE i.
DATA: c_cr(1).
DATA: c_bom(3)    TYPE x.
CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.
c_cr = cl_abap_char_utilities=>cr_lf.
c_bom = cl_abap_char_utilities=>byte_order_mark_utf8.
gs_ftp = c_bom.
APPEND gs_ftp TO gt_ftp.
CLEAR gs_ftp.
LOOP AT gt_survey INTO gs_survey.
*create file
    CONCATENATE: gs_survey-division
                 gs_survey-bus_unit
                 gs_survey-site
                 gs_survey-survey
                 gs_survey-co_name
                 gs_survey-kunnr
                 gs_survey-first_name INTO gs_ftp-record SEPARATED BY '|'.
* Work out length of string in GS_FTP_RECORD and populate last character

    l_len = STRLEN( gs_ftp-record ).
    SUBTRACT 1 FROM l_len.
    gs_ftp-record+l_len(1) = c_cr.
    APPEND gs_ftp TO gt_ftp.
ENDLOOP.
We then scramble the password and open the FTP and then call commandFTP_COMMAND before calling FTP_R3_TO_SERVER:
* Find out how many lines exist in GT_FTP

Any ideas?

As far as I see, you are opening the FTP-Connection in ASCII-Mode.
This means that the Data transfered is "converted" in a way as the FTP-Server think its correct.
Try to open the FTP-Connection in Binary mode, hopefully this helps?

Sending XML file from SAP to Windows Based file server with FTP function

Hi Gurus,
We are using SAP BW 3.0B version.
I need to convert data in ODS to XML format and send this XML file to remote server which is not a SAP application server, it is just a Window Based file server with FTP function..
By writing some ABAP code I have converted ODS data into XML format (which gets saved in my local system)
(Is that I need to put this file in Application Server to send it to the other servers? )
Now the thing is how I can send this file to that Windows Based file server.
plz suggest me.... what can be done......
Thanks in Advance
Madhusudhan
Edited by: Madhusudhan Raju on Dec 3, 2009 4:25 AM

I dont think the above code support windows OS. Because I always execute this script via UNIX.
I think you can try this option, go to command prompt, goto the destination path where you have an XML file using cd....
ftp (destination servername), specify the username and password.
afterthat, use the command put and filename.
check whether the file had reached destination successfully or not.
For automation purpose, you can use the following script like
ftp: -s: test.txt (servername)
In test.txt,
UserName
Password
bin
cd /files
put file.xml
bye
Also, you can check in SM69, there will be some SAP external commands to automate the file transfer.

From sap to excel file with different sheets?

can i upload an internal table from SAP to single Excel file with different sheets for example like : sheet1, sheet2, sheet3.......sheet10. , but need to upload data from sap to excel worksheets ie. from multiple named tabs in Excel. Is this possible, and if so, please can you help and advise me how?
thanks
venkat.
Edited by: Matt on Feb 16, 2009 2:15 PM Removed excessive question marks...!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hi venkat,
Yes indeed it is possible to write data from internal table to different excel sheets. Check out SAP's Microsoft OLE functionality.Search on SDN for OLE . Following are some links
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/abap/sample%252bprogram%252bto%252bopen%252bexcel%252bsheet%252busing%252bole
You can also check out FM ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE to check how to read different worksheets.
Using the above two resources you can create a program that can upload data to multiple worksheets in the same workbook.

Tab Delimited Text File to be Emailed (External Email ID) from SAP

Hi,
I have a requirement to email a tab delimited text file as an attachment to external email id from SAP. The text file is of line with type string and the length of each line is about 1024 char size. Can you please suggest me a suitable solution to this requirement? It looks like the FM: SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_ATT_SEND_API1 can handle a text file of 255 char length. I am not sure how to attach a text file of records with length more than 1025 char size.
Appreciate your help in advance.

Migrating from SAP DMS to File Server

Hi,
Our client is currently using the SAP DMS to store documents for the EHS module. This has brought with it lot of handicaps.. primarily the huge size of the database. There is an initiative now to move from SAP DMS to a file server where the files would be physically stored whereas the linking would be made via SAP EHS module.
This effectively means that the things would remain as they were.. only that the specifications in EHS would now be pointing to a new location for its documents.
My question is whether this is a techinallly feasible solution and second how should the migration be done. keeping in mind that the linkages should be kept intact.
Suggestions are solicited... points are guaranteed.
Thanks!
Aviroop

Hi Aviroop,

Creation of Material from SAP VIEW using CDESK.

Hi Experts,
I have one question related to creation of Material from SAP View.
CAD file created say SM1000.prt
Create DIR in CAD View say SM1000
Scenario 1 :   Create Material in Background from CAD VIEW or SAP VIEW from cad desktop, It creates material SM1000
                           in background.
Scenario 2 : Open CDESK ( Transaction)
                        Click on OPEN,
                        Selecting the DIR created SM1000
                        Create the material in background in SAP View, it gives message " enter material number"
Why am not able to create the material from SAP view using CAD Desktop. If any modifications needs to be done in CDESK CUS to solve this please let me know.
Thanks,
Sudharshan

Hi Sudharshan,
maybe the reason for this is that your CAD applications provides a special material number and the customizing in CDESK is defined to use this number. In this case the number or value can by provided from the CAD application only from the CAD View.
In the SAP view the material gets created like in MM01 for example and so mabye you have to enter a material number.
Best regards,
Christoph

Transfer files from SAP R/3(unix server) to windows

Hi TechGurus,
We have a requirement where in , we are extracting data from SAP table into a text file using OPEN DATASET in TEXT MODE.
Then using a third party tool (Connect-direct), we are transferring text files to windows server using unix script, in binary mode.
The problem is that that the data is being transferred in blocks,each time beginning transfer from a new line.That is, after say transferring 25KB data it transfers next 25KB data from a new line. What happens as a result is that records
after particular amount of data is broken and remaining data transfer begins from new line.
The file size is around 25 MB.There is no such problem while transferring file of size 10 KB.
We are uploading the data from text file on windows server into MSAccess.
And error occurs during this process.
Assured points for helpful answers
Thanks in advance!!

Hi,
If you want to transfer file between different SAP servers then you can use the function module EPS_FTP_PUT. You need to have a RFC destination (with sufficient authorizations for the RFC user). The meaning of the importing parameters of the function module are quite obvious. Of course, SAP offers us more than this function module:
- EPS_FTP_GET
- EPS_FTP_MPUT
- EPS_FTP_MGET

How to store multiple files from SAp in to Application server?

Hi Guys,
             Can anybody tell me how to store multiple files from SAP into Application server.in my application i have to get the data from SAP tables BSEG , BKPF , BSAK and BSIK that to daily i have to do.
            Any Logic or Code for how to do is welcomed.
                    plz help me urgently.
Thanks,
Gopi

Hi,
directories creates basis. If you have task to store data in application server you already should have information into which folder you have to do it. If you don't have this information because it is just for example training for next task then you can use your personal folder into which you have access. To get list of all available folders please look at attached code and form get_directories (you get the list of folders you see in transaction AL11). But don't forget: If you are using open dataset you have to have rights to access application folder!
Here you are code which I use to upload text files from local disc into application folder

Refresh data in SWF based on excel file saved from SAP BW workbook

Hi, is there a way to get data refresh in SWF dashboard from excel file as a data source. SAP BW workbook report will be saved as an excel file daily and placed in somewhere. I would like to create a dashboard which can connect to the excel data source and refresh on load.
Appreciate your advice and help. Thank you.
I am using Xcelsius 2008 and SAP BI 7.0

Thank you.
If I understand correctly from your advice, that is I should create QaaWs to pull data from SAP BI, which will return data in tabular format. Map the data in the cell range of a hidden tab, re-arrange and format the data into the row?
Another concern: I need to display data for 4 quarters (Q1, Q2, Q3,Q4) in the dashboard, but QAAWS will only pulls data when the data is available in the database.
   Eg. Only data for 3 quarters are found in the database, QAAWS will return data for Q1, Q2,Q4.
         This will mess up the position fixed in the xcelsius. Do you have any suggestion on this?
   Sorry to bother u for the simple questions.
   Thank you.

How to transfer file from sap server to PDM server using open FT??

Hello Sap Guru's
I want to Trasfer a file with all supplier information from SAP server to PDM server(Thirdparty) system Using Open FT ..How can I transfer ???
Please let me know the answer??
Thanks In Advance
Preethi

Hi Preethi,
I think it is not possible to transfer a file from SAP to PDM using open FT.
Using RFCs, we can do the transfer.
Other option is the file can be downloaded into UNIX. And from there using a shellscript we can transfer the file from UNIX to PDM or if your PDM has the option to grab the file from UNIX that will also work.
Hope this helps.
Please reward if helpful.
Thanks,
Srinivas

Ack from SAP R/3 to file..
