CCM  Upload CSV2.0 file to Supplier Catalog fails if using " ' , ;

Hello all,
We're unable to up-load supplier catalogs using CSV2.0 format when text fields in the file contain any of the following characters:  comma, semi-colon, apostrophe, quote (, ; ‘ “). While we can get around this by excluding these characters from text fields in the file, the fact is that these characters are generally present across the customer’s material master description and purchase order texts in the material masters.  Apostrophes and quotes are especially numerous because they are common abbreviations for foot and inch respectively.
Has anyone encountered this problem and was able to include these characters in the CSV2.0 file upload?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Frank Heisner

Frank: you should have no problems with comma (,) and semi-colon ( - as long as these are not defined as the CSV separator. Not sure about apostrophe ('). Quote (") is a special case for CSV. Per <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_ccm20/helpdata/en/e1/eddebb4b63453cbf209027e0816b8c/content.htm">SAP CSV 2.0 specification</a>, you should be aware that:
<i>If the column value contains one or more double quotes, you must place double quotes around the entire content of the column, and each double quote contained in the value must be doubled.</i>
Cheers,
Serguei

  • How to upload an rtf file into a table? (without using UNIX box)

    Hi All,
    Our requirement is to upload a rtf file into table in database.
    Later that rtf is used to generate a report.
    Is it possible to upload the file directly into a table by using SQL developer?
    our requirement is to upload the files without placing them in a particular path in unix box.
    Thanks in advance
    Regards

    If you are in EBS
    When you upload Template in Application
    I guess It'll get stored in apps.XDO_LOBS table, in FILE_DATA Column
    select * from apps.XDO_LOBS
    where lob_code=<'con. program short name'>
    and file_name= <'your.rtf'>

  • Extra harecteristics in supplier catalog in CCM .

    hello dear people...
    we are using CCM 2.0 with SRM 5.0 in the same server.
    we have a requirement of using few extra charecteristics in CCM catalog.
    Can we upload the custom charecterictics (which is not provided by OCI i.e. not a part of "/ccm" ) using the CSV files as supplier catalogs?
    If yes, what is the format of the .CSV file?
    If we can't, what can be the work around?
    An early response is appretiated.
    Thanks in advance.
    Abhishek

    Yes you can create custom characteristics as part of your supplier catalogs.  This can be done either via the csv format or via one of the xml formats.
    The csv format is more detailed then what one would want to read in a post.  Here is the link to the csv 2.0 format.  It explains how to create characteristics and how to add those chars. to you supplier catalog and downstream catalogs.  Note if you want this field to be searchable and displayed in procurement catalogs you will need to set the appropriate settings.
    Start with this link:

    Hi,
    Use <b>GUI_UPLOAD</b> to upload a text file from a shared folder.
    Use <b>GUI_DOWNLOAD</b> to download data in a file on the presentation server or use <b>OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER</b> and <b>CLOSE DATASET</b> statements to download data to the application server.
    Now, I hope the code for data fetching, if required, is already present in the report.

  • CCM automatic upload of CSV files

    Dear CCM experts,
    We are running CCM 2.0 installed within SRM and do not have XI in place so we use CSV files to load our catalogs manually via the web. We have to fullfill the requirement to load the catalogs automatically. The files should be "picked up" by a custom build abap program from a file server.
    The question is: Are there function modules, abap programs that allow you to load the CSV files from the SRM GUI that we can incorporate in a custom build program? In other words, we load CSV files currently via the web, but which ABAP program/function module runs this process?
    Thanks in advance.
    We have a requirement to load our catalog

    Hi
    I guess this can be possible, but will require some research and analysis.
    <b>You need to create the function module based on your business requirement. Incase you need any help, do let me know.</b>
    Have a look at the following function modules, which will help.
