Code page

hello!
can anyone please explain what is code page?
I came across a problem, while opening dataset in text mode,
i use the command transfer few times, but instead of getting few lines in the file i get a string of all the lines.
I was told to use code page, is that the solution?
regards
yifat

Hi,
Code page means:
Mapping of selected characters (character set) onto bit sequences. For example, Latin1 ( ISO-8859-1) represents a code page that contains all the characters required for Western European languages, while a Unicode character representation can display all the characters required across the globe. The way in which characters are displayed in an internal session is determined by the active system code page for the text environment in the internal session. Each code page supported by SAP is assigned an SAP code page number in the database table TCP00.

Infopackage Idocs in status 2 - could not find code page for receiver system

Hi,
We just migrated our production system from BW 7.01 non unicode to BW 7.4 on HANA.
We now encounter issues with idocs while loading data into bw from our ECC5 source. When we analyze idocs in the source system it appears with the message "could not find code page for receiver system"
One weird thing is that the idoc seems to have been created before we started the infopackage in bw.. We controlled system time and AS time and everything seems ok.
We did not encounter this issues on our previous migration test runs..
Hope someone can help
Christophe

Hi,
Thanks for responding. We finally found out what the problem was.
We have two applications servers on our ECC with 2 different OS. One of them could not reach the new BW HANA server.

Code page issue - Unix file(s) content display in a report output

Hi All,
I am trying to retrieve file from Unix server and display in my report output.
I have written code as below:
OPEN DATASET filename FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
DO.
READ DATASET filename INTO i_tab-line.
ENDDO.
CLOSE DATASET.
1. Now i am able to display files of type .txt in report output but with line numbers above each line.
How can i avaoid it! I want to display as it looks in AL11 view.
2. If i am displaying files of type .PDF it is giving dump with below message:
A character set conversion is not possible.
At the conversion of text from code page '4110' to '4102' is not possible.
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two code pages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported.
How can i display the .PDF (or) all types of files in my report as it is viewable in AL11.
Can anybody solve this this.
I have tried UTF-8 & NON-UNICODE options with ENCODE also they are also giving same dump.
Can anybody resolve these issues!
Thanks in advance.

Open data set / code page

Hello ,
I am sending file to print server and i am accounting problems with special characters
In first version of program ( please see the code below )
"OPEN DATASET g_filename FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT."
The special characters l from German and French   alphabet were NOT printed properly , and we had some nonsense results . Other '"Normal "characters like A , B... are printed without errors .
To prevent this error i wrote new line of code for open data set ( below ).
"OPEN DATASET g_filename FOR OUTPUT IN   LEGACY TEXT MODE CODE PAGE '4110' IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS."
This was working only when FTP was NOT used , when FTP was used i had following short dump.
I am working in SAP release 6.0
Please Advice
SHORT DUMP Message :
What happened?
    The conversion of texts in code page '4102' to code page '4110' is not
    supported here.
    The current ABAP program 'SAPLZPRN_AUTO_LBL' had to be interrupted because
     incorrect
    data would have been created by the conversion.
Error analysis
    An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
    The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CODEPAGE_CONVERTER_INIT', was
     not caught in
    procedure "Z_TRANSFER_FILE" "(FUNCTION)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING
     clause.
    Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
    exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
    The reason for the exception is:
    Possibly, one of the codepages '4102' or '4110' - needed for the
    conversion - is unknown to the system. Another option is, that a Unicode
     codepage was specified for a file in LEGACY MODE, which is not allowed.
    Additional parameters for the codepage conversion (as , for example, the
     replacement character) might have invalid values. You can find further
    information under 'Inernal notes'.
    If the problem occurred at opening, reading, or writing of a file, then
    the file name was '/te/mm/labels/0488_20091208_051317_EC008119_01_001.dd'.

Hi,
Also check the character set supported by the Printer. Printer configuration should also be checked on SAP side to determine character set and code page using SPAD.

How to change the default code page in SAP?

My colleague tries to download a report in Excel but she is having some problems with the output as each of the lines are all included in one cell. When I download the same report, my output is fine and the columns in the lines are properly aligned in various columns in Excel.
I noticed that her code page is 4110 and mine is 1160.
4110 Unicode UTF-8
1160 Microsoft 1252, Superset of ISO 8859-1
As a workaround, I just asked her to modify the code page to 1160 everytime she downloads a report. I want to know how this setting is derived.
My questions are:
1) Is there a way to set the default code page?
2) Is this a problem with the SAP version? If she downloads another SAP GUI, will the issue be gone?
Thanks!
Joey

1, You can change the codepage in SAPGUI: Select the system => Properties => Others
2, Could be, best is to have the same and most up to date SAPGUI for all

How to change a Code Page in SAP SCRIPT ?

I have a specific requirement, would need your help :
There is a CODE PAGE which is getting assigned to the SAP SCRIPT FORM. For E.g : 1100 is generally used for SAP SCRIPTS.
I would like to know if there is a possibility to change the Code Page based on certain conditions ??
Also i would like to know how and where is a CODE PAGE and SAP SCRIPT FORM linked.
I have analysed that a default code page can be set in the SAP LOG ON PAD but not able to find the issues mentioned above.
Kindly help me out with your valuable suggestions and solutions.
Thankyou
Brijesh.

Hi,
MDMP means Multi Display Multi Processing. See the note system for details. The problem of MDMP is that the different languages use different codepages and not all characteres can be displayed in every codepage.
A solution would be a unicode conversion of the system. In unicode there is only one internal codepage, which contains all special characters of the individual languages. However the migration needs several hours of down time and unicode systems need more memory and disk space. I can't tell you a percentage for that. You need at least R/3 4.7 for unicode.
In non-unicode system I believe you can't change the codepage inside a SAPscript document directly. I would have to end form processing an start a new form. To change the language you can try the ABAP-command SET LOCALE. Also see the language parameter in START_FORM.
If that doesn't work I would try using RFC-Connections. Make RFC-Connections in your system which contain the system it self as target system, but with the desired language filled in. You do not need to provide a user or password, that would be taken form the logged on user.
Inside your printing program you put the real printing into a function module. Your report then can call the function via RFC using a connection in the correct logon language.
Greetings

SSIS Error Text was truncated or one or more characters had no match in the target code page

I the same issue or something close.

I have found four things that I always check when I run into this problem. I have yet to find a time when one of these didn't work (specifically helps when reading data from flat files but I suppose most of the four would apply to any source). Check out my blog post, content repeated below:
1. Make sure to properly configure the "Flat File Source". When setting the connection properties to the flat file, take time to click on the advanced tab and ensure that the" Name", "DataType", and "OutputColumnWidth" properties are set properly. I have found that if this is setup correctly when the initial connection is created, some if not all of the data type issues and errors can be alleviated. The "Flat File Connection Manager Editor" can be accessed while initially creating the connection or by double clicking on a flat file connection within the "Connection Managers" for connections that have previously been created.
2. Depending on the order and steps that were used to create the connection to the flat file, sometimes the data types need to be updated in an additional area. This can be found by right clicking on the "Flat File Source" and selecting "Show Advanced Editor...". Once in the advanced editor, click on the "Input and Output Properties" tab. Expand the "External Columns" folder. For each field being loaded from the flat file there are some configurable properties. Make sure that the "DataType" field is properly set for each field.
3. Something else that can be done if you are sure that the data type is set correctly in both of the two previously mentioned locations is to set the "Flat File Source" to essentially ignore those annoying truncation errors. On the same "Input and Output Properties" tab, expand the "Output Columns" folder. For those fields listed, there is a "TruncationRowDisposition" property. By default this is set to "RD_FailComponent". This can be switched to "RD_IgnoreFailure" in order to allow the data to successfully pass through the "Flat File Source" even if SSIS believes that truncation is going to occur. Along with making this change, you can also check the "DataType" in the "Output Columns" as well.
Caution: If you do set the "Flat File Source" to "RD_IgnoreFailure" as mentioned above, always take time to review the data loaded in the target table to ensure that the integrity of the data was not jeopardized.
Note: I have found that when the "DataType" for both the "External Columns" and "Output Columns" is manually updated that it does not remain the same when the advanced editor is reopened. For this reason, try Steps 1 and 2 before setting the "Output Columns" manually.
4. The last thing to try, and this applies specifically to loading data from Excel files as opposed to text or CSV is to set the package to run in 32-bit mode. Click on "Project" on the top menu and select "Data Imports Properties...". Click on "Debugging" under the "Configuration Properties" and set the "Run64BitRuntime" to "False".
Working with data from flat files can sometimes be difficult in SSIS. By using one or many of the approaches I have listed above you should be able to create a repeatable process that is frequently needed within most SSIS packages. Be very careful when setting data types within SSIS and make sure to do it upfront when necessary because it can be harder to debug later in the development process. If the proper changes are made it should not be a surprise to feel a big SSIS developer sense of relief when the screen shows all green.
Let me know if this works!

IDoc Status 02 ( Could not find code page for receiving system )

Hi All,
I am getting Idoc status 02 when I am trying to send IDocs from ECC to PI system ( Production ).
Error description.
Could not find code page for receiving system
Message no. E0266
Diagnosis
For the logical destination PIP001, you want to determine the code page in which the data is sent with RFC. However, this is not currently possible, and the IDoc cannot yet be dispatched.
Procedure for System Administration
Possible causes are:
1. The entry no longer exists in the table of logical destinations.
2. The target system could not be accessed at runtime.
3. The logon language is not installed in the target system.
4. In the destination system, no logon language is maintained
Please help.
Thanks - Vinay.

Hi Vinay,
Status 02 occurs when data is not passed to port suceessfully. Check the RFC desination is working fine and your able to connect to target system and also check correct port is assigned.

But in Windows 8.1 Phone version, i am getting 'ArgumentException' saying 'Windows-1252' is not a supported encoding name.
Please help me with a solution or workaround to support the above specified code pages for Encoding.

Idoc Error: Could not find code page for receiving system

hi,
I am facing the following error while processing Idocs.
ERROR: Could not find code page for receiving system
Diagnosis
For the logical destination BWFIN, you want to determine the code page in which the data is sent with RFC. However, this is not currently possible, and the IDoc cannot yet be dispatched.
Can somebody suggest a solution for this. I have verified that the RFC destinations have been created both on the sender and receiver, ports (WE21) have been defined, and partner profiles (WE20) also created. How would I troubleshoot this problem?

Hi,
I did analyse on this issue.It is all because of the Langauge settings in the SM59.This can be done by the BASIS person.The Language field would be empty, but when ever we send the IDoc from the unicode to a non unicode system we have to mention the Langauage used.
If this helps you really award me the points.

Hello Vamsi,
check Note 647495 - RFC for Unicode ./. non-Unicode Connections
If your ERP system sends e. g. chinese data to the SCM system, how should the system know which codepage to use? You have to set the MDMP flag in your ERP system in SM59 and configure in the MDMP extended settings which codepage should be used for what language.
Please check this thread - IDoc error - Could not find code page for receiving system
Hope it helps,
Thanks & Regards,

Thanks for your quick response. I did it but it didn't resolve the issue. since the system id which i am having is 3 digits(LEC) but there it is taking only 2 digits, so i clicked on the button called Propose system ids, it has praposed LE, but the issue is stil there.
Do we need to do any settings in LBWE??
