BEX variable - uploading text file

Hi,
Does any one know if it is possible to upload a file to a variable rather than selecting individual values in the Web BEx analyser. (e.g. a list of material codes)..
Regards
Mark J

Hi Mark Johnson
Your right in R/3 you have an option where as in BW you have to restrict in the query by entering the materials.if some range is preset i mean sequence of materials then you enter it as value range.
Hope its clear a little..!
Thanks

Upload text file to oracle table with checking and aggregation

Hi Friends,
I am new to ODI. I have encountered a problem which is specific to ODI 11G (11.1.1.6.3) to upload text file to oracle table with checking and aggregation. Would you please teach me how to implement the following requirement in ODI 11G?
Input text file a:
staffCode, staffCat, status, data
input text file b:
staffCodeStart, staffCodeEnd, staffCat
temp output oracle table c:
staffCat, data
output oracle table d:
staffCat, data
order:
a.staffCode, a.staffCat, a.status
filter:
a.status = ‘active’
join:
a left outerjoin b on a.staffCode between b.staffCodeStart and b.staffCodeEnd
insert temp table c:
c.staffCat = if b.staffCat is not null then b.staffCat else a.staffCat
c.data = a.data
insert table d:
if c.staffCat between 99 and 1000 then d.staffCat = c.staffCat, d.data = sum(c.data)
else d.staffCat = c.staffCat, d.data = LAST(c.data)
Any help on fixing this is highly appreciated. Thanks!!
Thanks,
Chris

Dear Santy,
Many thanks for your prompt reply. May I have more information about the LAST or SUM step?
I was successful to create and run the following interfaces p and q
1. Drag text file a to a newly created interface panel p
2. Filter text file a : a.status = ‘active’
3. Lookup text file a to text file b : a.staffCode between b.staffCodeStart and b.staffCodeEnd
4. Drag oracle temp table c to interface panel p
5. Set c.staffCat : CASE WHEN b.staffCat IS NULL THEN a.staffCat ELSE b.staffCat END
6. Set c.data : a.data
7. Drag oracle temp table c to a newly created interface panel q
8. Drag oracle table d to interface panel q
9. Set UK to d.staffCat
10. Set Distinct Rows to table d
11. Set d.staffCat = c.staffCat
12. Set d.data = SUM(c.data)
However, the interface q should be more than that:
If c.staffCat is between 99 and 1000, then d.data = the last record c.data; else d.data = sum(c.data)
Would you please teach me how to do the LAST or SUM steps? Moreover, can interface p and interface q be combined to one interface and do not use the temp table c? Millions thanks!

Chris

Upload text files with non-english characters

I use an Apex page to upload text files. Then i retrieve the contents of files from wwv_flow_files.blob_content and convert them to varchar2 with utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2, but characters like ò, à, ù become garbage.
What could be the problem? Are characters lost when files are stored in wwv_flow_files or when i do the conversion?
Some other info:
* I see wwv_flow_files.DAD_CHARSET is set to "ascii", wwv_flow_files.FILE_CHARSET is null.
* Trying utl_raw.cast_to_varchar2( utl_raw.cast_to_raw('àòèù') ) returns 'àòèù' correctly;
* NLS_CHARACTERSET parameter is AL32UTF8 (not just english ASCII)

Hi
Have a look at csv upload -- suggestion needed with non-English character in csv file it might help you.
Thanks,
Manish

Uploaded text file has a new line added at the top using BSP MVC applicatio

I have a BSP MVC application that uploads data on to the application server. When I open the uploaded text file, the very first line on the file looks like the line below. ->
htmlb:button:click:nullhtmlb_form_1UploadUpload0htmlbdfsdf
But the rest of the file looks okay. This is causing other than .txt files to get corrupted.

Function upload text file or from clipboard in Bex with BI 70

Will it be possbile to use the function to upload data in from a text file or from clipboard with BI 70?
With older BW versions it was possible to fill a variable with lists.
Can someone help where I can find information about this issue?

No Authorization To Upload Text file for a Variable

Hi Experts,
I am trying to upload a text file from Multiple Selection screen of a Query in Business Explorer and it gives the error message of 'No Upload Authorization'
An additional Information: I could able to Upload the text file when we were in SP17. Its recently upgraded to SP 21. Does this Upgradation of service pack has any Impact on this??
An idea about this error, PLEASE ?
Many Thanks in Advance.
Cheers,
Krishna

Hi Panagiotis,
Have a look into the Portal Desktop link below.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/ac/dc4f3eeb684212e10000000a11405a/frameset.htm
Somewhere mid section, you will find Portal Favourites (http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/3a/d609e5803111d5992f00508b6b8b11/frameset.htm).
Make sure that Knowledge Management is installed on your system and that you have activated the Add to Portal Favorites property (this entry is displayed in the options menu of your page title bar).
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_03/helpdata/EN/84/a30a48887d4cb690b4f1754f651ba1/frameset.htm
If all above if set, then checkout the needed activities within the Portal Favourite iview setting.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/1e/62eae2357c4596bda2476d0a6503e3/frameset.htm
Checkout on both the page title bar Options menu and the context menu of the Detailed Navigation iView display an Add to Portal Favorites item, allowing users to store links to favorites (thats where I believe your missing permission).
The Portal Favorites iView is part of the Knowledge Management installation and is integrated into the portal. Thus if the above steps are done and the settings activated, then your standard user should not see error in the Portal Favourites with the role that you have already assigned to the user.
Also look into Standard User (eu_role), which basic functionality (portal personalization iViews) for the core portal platform and default content for the Knowledge Management and Collaboration capabilities of SAP NetWeaver. By default, the Everyone group in the portal is assigned to this role.
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/47/f0f7415e639c39e10000000a155106/frameset.htm
Hope that helps.

Upload text file from PC to table control

Hi Experts,
I realize that this question was posted many times in SDN, but I am not able to find a clear answer. I have uploaded the file into internal table using GUI_UPLOAD function module (PAI module - MODULE UPLOAD_FROM_PC - I have created a push button using screen painter and included the logic based of fcode). Now, I want to append this internal table to the internal table linked to the table control. But I am not able to find the internal table which is linked to the table control. The EXTRACT is not an internal table. So, could you tell me how I could accomplish this logic.
PROCESS BEFORE OUTPUT.
MODULE LISTE_INITIALISIEREN.
LOOP AT EXTRACT WITH CONTROL TCTRL_ZKK_EXAMPLE1 CURSOR NEXTLINE.
    MODULE LISTE_SHOW_LISTE.
ENDLOOP.
PROCESS AFTER INPUT.
MODULE LISTE_EXIT_COMMAND AT EXIT-COMMAND.
MODULE LISTE_BEFORE_LOOP.
LOOP AT EXTRACT.
    MODULE LISTE_INIT_WORKAREA.
    CHAIN.
      FIELD ZKK_EXAMPLE1-ANLKL .
      MODULE SET_UPDATE_FLAG ON CHAIN-REQUEST.
    ENDCHAIN.
    FIELD VIM_MARKED MODULE LISTE_MARK_CHECKBOX.
    CHAIN.
      FIELD ZKK_EXAMPLE1-ANLKL .

Webutil - issue with uploading text files with client_get_file_name

Hi,
I'm using webutil client_get_file_name to upload files from the client machine to the server.
It works fine for xls,pdf,doc files etc. but not for txt files it seems.
It doesn't display any error at all either.
Has anyone seen this type of issue before?
Kind regards,
Tom
Windows XP
Forms v10.1.2.0.2

Hi Sarah et al,
The code that I'm using to upload any file type format is:
vfilename := client_get_file_name('c:\',file_filter => 'All files (*.*)');
it works for doc/pdf/xls/rtf/csv etc.
but not for text files i.e. .txt
Also, could someone tell me how to open a .msg (Outlook message) file
as it gives the output:
'Cannot read item' upon the opening of the Outlook application.
I'm using the following to try and open it:
CLIENT_HOST( 'cmd /C start '||p_filename);
Your help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
Tom

Error - Server file should not be empty- while uploading Text files in RAR

Hi,
We are uploading SU24 text files but we are getting the error "Server file should not be empty" while uploading the Description files in RAR 5.3
We followed the same naming covention and also used UTF-8 format for the text files. We placed the file in our Desktop as well and tried uploading into RAR - but still the same error is being thrown?
Are we missing something here?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Srihari.K

Hi and thanks to the answers so far.
I forgot to mention some points :
- I'm using forground import
- we are trying to use RAR to run risk analysis on non-sap systems as well as SAP (single or cross-systems).
So the file I'm trying to upload does not come from a SAP backen, but was created from scratch.
However the data in the files are coherent (and I compared with a SAP extraction, the format is the same)
here is a sample of the file I try to upload : (an that is actually what I'm trying to import as a test file)
sap_auth.txt:
OEITIAC     GTIAC     SEL     1
OEITIAC     GTIAC     MOD     1
OEITIAC     GTIAC     INS     1
OEITIAC     GTIAC     SUP     1
each element (ACT/PRM/FLD/VAL) is defined in the sap_desc.txt file that I loaded first (without error).
note that each column is separated by a single TAB (with an empty column at the end of each line).
each line is terminated by a CR/LF
I tried UTF-8 with and W/O BOM

Creating Variables From Text File

Hello a little new to powershell and have banging my head on the wall trying to get this working.
I have a text file (where the numbers of lines will change everytime) that will contain AD groups.
Lets say it looks like this
GroupA
GroupB
GroupC
I'm trying to you a loop that will read the file and output each new line to a variable so
var1=GroupA
Var2 =GroupB
Var3=Groupc
My first problem is that non of these can be null since this will be then be used with Add-ADgroupmemeber
So I have it get the number of items with $Items = get-content *File* | Measure-Object -Line
After that I have been trying to use a loop which to me looks like it should work however is not. I'm not getting any errors. However I'm not getting any created variables either.
For ($i=1; $i -lt $Items.lines; $i++) {
$var[$i] = (Get-Content *File*)[$i-1]
write-host $var[$i]}
In my head I should get a listed of each line of the txt file but I'm getting nothing.
In the end I was hoping to doing something along the lines of ADD-Adgroupmember -identity $Var[$i] -members *Machine Name*
If there is a better way to approach this I'm all ears.
Thanks for any help!

You don't need a loop to read each line from the file. You don't need a variable for each group read from the file.
For example, if your file looks like:
GroupA
GroupB
GroupC
with spaces/empty lines in it, that you wish to ignore, you can use:
$Groups = Get-Content .\groups2.txt | % { ($_.split(" ",[System.StringSplitOptions]::RemoveEmptyEntries)) }
The $Groups variable will be an array that holds non-empty lines from the file. You can use that directly as in:
foreach ($Group in (Get-Content .\groups2.txt | % { ($_.split(" ",[System.StringSplitOptions]::RemoveEmptyEntries)) })) {
Add-ADGroupMember -identity $Group -members *Machine Name*

Movie refuses to load variables from text file

Hi,
I'm sure you can solve my newbie problem in less than 1
minute...
I'm pulling my hair out on a template I bought 2 days ago
from templatemonster.com
I am using Flash 8 Pro.
All I want to do is change an existing textfield that is
Static to Dynamic and load variables from a text file.
The Action Script I use to do so comes directly from
Macromedia documentation (see attached)
It works fine when I create a brand new movie, but doesn't do
anything when inserted into the template.
It doesn't even complain about not finding the text file if I
rename or delete it!
Here are the FLA and text file:
Edit : Link to source file removed
The textfield I would like to change is in the txt2 symbol.
Here is how I proceed:
When I open HEADER.FLA, Flash tells me I'm missing a font,
ok, so I click on Use Default, I'll deal with this later.
I open up the Movie Explorer, go to Layer 30, go to Frame 75
and click once on txt2
I name the instance "myMovie_mc" and save (converts from
Flash MX to Flash 8)
I double-click on the Movie Clip, select the word
"Automobile" on the Stage, change from Static to Dynamic and call
that instance "myText_txt"
Still in the Movie Clip, I create a new layer I call
"actions", and in Frame 1 I copy the attached Action Script:
This script works when I create a new flash file, but it does
absolutely nothing in this template.
I know I'm doing something wrong, but I wonder what?
Many thanks to any helping soul!
Ferris.

try this:
// Load text as variable and assign it to the
// dynamic text field
var features_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
features_lv.onLoad = onText();
features_lv.load("safetyFeatures.txt");
function onText(success:Boolean) {
if (success) {
myText_txt.text = features_lv.safetyfeatures;
} else {
myText_txt.text = "unable to load text file.";
or this
// Load text as variable and assign it to the
// dynamic text field
var features_lv:LoadVars = new LoadVars();
features_lv.onLoad = function(success) {
if (success) {
myText_txt.text = features_lv.safetyfeatures;
} else {
myText_txt.text = "unable to load text file.";
features_lv.load("safetyFeatures.txt");
