Codepage 4110 / 1100 conversion error

Hi there,
I am trying to connect to my MDM Repository using the ABAP API.
The connection to the server works, but as soon as I want to connect to the repository, I get an error saying there is a converion error between codepages 4110 and 1100. Has anyone come across this problem before?

Error: At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4102':

I am trying to open an ANSI file from Application server.
I am using "open dataset F_FILENAME for input in text mode encoding default."
For some ANSI files it works fine, and for some it fails. I want to open this file and validate it , post it back on to application server
with its original format.
How do I achieve this? THanks,
Below is the system config.
Database codepage                         Unicode
Current Codepage of Appl. Server    4102
Codepage of Front End               4110 UTF-8 GUI

Hi Shabbir,
The statement "open dataset F_FILENAME for input in text mode encoding default" would open the file with the default codepage of your system which is 4102 for your system.
Due to which the SAP system implicitly coverts the characters in the file to 4102 codepage. You might get "CONVT_CODEPAGE" error if system is not able to convert some characters in the file.
You should use
Open dataset F_FILENAME for input in legacy text mode code page 1100
Check the following link for syntax.
[open dataset in SAP|http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/79/c554a0b3dc11d5993800508b6b8b11/frameset.htm]
You can also use " IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS " to avoid "CONVT_CODEPAGE" errors..

Problem conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103'

Hi!
I upgrade my SAP version ECC 5.0 no Unicode to ECC 6.0 Unicode .
Now, when I execute some reports I get a dump because when I open my file with 'OPEN DATASET' and then READ and TRANSFER to another file the result is :
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103':
- a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
codepages;
- or it was detected that this conversion is not supported.
This dump is got when the file contain special characters like 'Á,Ñ,...)
I have searched some information and the source error I think is about UTF-16 to UTF-8 conversion. I look for some SAP notes but I don't clear what I have to do.
Thanks in advace.
Ana

Hi Ana,
please check the code page of the uploaded file. In your scenario the assumption is that it is based on UTF-8.
If it is based on Non-Unicode, you need to use OPEN DATASET .... ENCODING NON-UNICODE ...

CONVT_CODEPAGE conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103'

Hi,
I am receving the runtime error when i am trying to read the data from the application server(the data is loaded in the application server from the FTP server). The issue is with the character ' ¦ ' . Looks like the system is not able to convert this character from one code page to another.
I am getting this issue in both Development and in Quality Systems. Both systems are unicode systems.
I have gone through the existing threads on it and found 2 solutions. One is adding UTF-8 in the Open Dataset statement and other is adding IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS. I tried both these options and the issue still exists.
Runtime error text:
Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
conversion error occurs.
Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
'4110' or '4103' is not known to the system.
Regards,
Karthick.

Let's first name the code pages you've given: 4110 is UTF-8 and 4103 is UTF-16LE. A conversion between Unicode code pages should not be an issue, but converting from a Unicode page to a non-Unicode page obviously is likely to face conversion issues due to missing characters in the non-Unicode target code page.
So let's check the real problem: It sounds like you're reading a file that's not in a UTF-8 encoding, yet you claim it is. I.e. you mention the character ¦ is causing problems. Assuming that you actually copied the character you can already see that it's a bit unusual, i.e. it's not the normal pipe symbol | (which is closed, whereas your character is divided). Now taking the hex code of the character off your posting I get a A6 (decimal 166, binary 10100110). Now in UTF-8 only ASCII (i.e. 7 bit values) are 1 byte characters (i.e. one character equals to one byte).
Now if you check the UTF-8 table you'll see that your pipe symbol with hex value A6 is a continuation character, i.e. it has to be part of a longer multibyte sequence. So if your file errors out on this specific character it's probably simply due to the fact that you don't have a UTF-8 file, but some other encoding (e.g. often it's latin1). So your first step should be to figure out what encoding your file is that you're reading. Once you know it, conversion from that code page to UTF-8 or one of the UTF-16 flavors is no challenge.
By the way, one easy check for invalid UTF-8 byte sequences is to load the file into a web browser. E.g. in your case you could try copying the following data into a file and opening it in your favorite web browser (load will fail).
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<data>¦</data>
After testing that, change the encoding from UTF-8 to latin1 and you'll see that you can load the page into the web browser...

Explain why READ DATASET conversion from codepage '4110' to codepage '4102'

I am unfamiliar with unicode but I am trying to solve a problem in an ABAP program.
Our code is
OPEN DATA p_in FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.
DO.
READ DATASET p_in INTO i_tab.
The program gives me the error 'At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4102'. The program abends on a line in the file that contains the special character '#'.
Does this mean that the file I am reading is in codepage '4110' and the internal format of i_tab is codepage '4102'? If so, how do the codepages get assigned to unix files and internal structures How can I make the both codepage '4110' or codepage '4102'? Also, what is the difference between these two codepages?
thanks.

To load that file with BULK INSERT, use this format file:
9.0
4
1 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"" 0 "" ""
2 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 1 col1 Latin1_General_CI_AS
3 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\",\"" 2 col2 Latin1_General_CI_AS
4 SQLCHAR 0 0 "\"\r\n" 3 col3 Latin1_General_CI_AS
Note that the format file defines four fields while the fileonly seems to have three. The format file defines an empty field before the first quote.
Or, since you already have a .NET program, use a stored procedure with table-valued parameter instead. I have an example of how to do this here:

CONVT_CODEPAGE codepage '4110' to codepage '4103'

Hi Experts,
I'm really new with ABAP and I'm trying to ivestigate as to why a job got cancelled previously. As per DUMP information:
Short text
A character set conversion is not possible.
What happened?
At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4103':
    - a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
    codepages;
    - or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
    The running ABAP program 'RFEKA400' had to be terminated as the conversion
    would have produced incorrect data.
The exact line of code where its having trouble with is inside UPLOAD_FROM_UNIX of the program RFEKA400:
READ DATASET AUSZUGFILE INTO SWIFT-ZEILE.
My custome proogram's code is as follows:
     OPEN DATASET file1 FOR INPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING
     NON-UNICODE MESSAGE mess IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS .
     OPEN DATASET file2 FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING
     NON-UNICODE MESSAGE mess IGNORING CONVERSION ERRORS .
I'm not really sure what to do next. I checked if the standard program got the OSS notes release. I think it did for I saw the Notes #. I already read some of the responses from around here, some have the same issue but it did not got a reply.
Please help me, your response would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance!

Thank you for your prompt response Anup. I'll try to use that, as soon as I can, I still need apporval to make changes.
Just an additional thought and please correct me if I'm wrong.
I just noticed that RFEKA400 open datasets are as follows:
OPEN DATASET AUSZUGFILE IN TEXT MODE encoding default FOR INPUT.
IF l_upload_codepage IS INITIAL.                                "n928965
    OPEN DATASET AUSZUGFILE IN TEXT MODE encoding default FOR INPUT.   "UC
ELSE.                                                           "n928965
    OPEN DATASET AUSZUGFILE IN LEGACY TEXT MODE CODE PAGE         "n928965
      l_upload_codepage FOR INPUT.                                "n928965
ENDIF.                                                          "n928965
I'm not really sure if I'm making any sense. Do you think using DEFAULT encoding will work? As far as I know if you use the DEFAULT, encoding will depend on what is the preset encoding of the system. Is that right? Maybe matching up the standard program's exact way of OPENING DATASET with my custom program's way might help. I still have to find out. Any thought on this?

** File Content Conversion Error in Receiver CC - How to solve this?

Hi friends,
My target structure looks like below.
EmployeeJobDetails                                        --> Message Type
   JobCode                                                      --> Node
        EmployeeNumber            xsd:string
        Domain                           xsd:string
   JobTrack                                                     --> Node

         Position                         xsd: string
I use the FCC parameters in the receiver CC as below:
Recordset Structure:    JobCode,JobTrack
JobCode.fieldSeparator = |
JobCode.endSeparator = 'nl'
JobTrack.fieldSeparator = |
JobTrack.endSepartor = 'nl'.
Because, we want the output like below
1099|Raja
Accts|JuniorAccountant
1100|Ram
HR|Recruiter
like this.
In this scenario Source is XML and target is txt file.
I am using XSLT Mapping. The FCC works fine, if my source input file contains some records. But, when we send empty source XML file as below
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<EMPLOYEE_DATA/>
Mapping works fine. Message is processed successfully in SXMB_MONI. The payload in response also comes with Message Type name like below
<EmployeeJobDetails    namespace >
</EmployeeJobDetails>
While convert this, the system throws below error.
Error Message:
Message processing failed. Cause: com.sap.aii.af.ra.ms.api.RecoverableException: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure '' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)': java.lang.Exception: Exception in XML Parser (format problem?):'java.lang.Exception: Message processing failed in XML parser: 'Conversion configuration error: Unknown structure '' found in document', probably configuration error in file adapter (XML parser error)'
Friend, how to convert this when source XML is empty.
But, if we remove JobTrack node in target strucutre and remove the JobTrack parameters in CC, then if we send the same empty XML file FCC is working fine and we get the target text file 0 KB. (Amazing !!)
But, in the first case, how to solve the issue?
Kind Regards,
Jegathees P.

Hi friends,
If we remove JobTrack node in target strucutre and remove the JobTrack parameters in CC, then if we send the <b>same empty XML file</b> FCC is working fine and<b> we get the target text file 0 KB</b>. (Amazing !!)
But, if we give parameters like JobCode,JobTrack then send pass the same empty file, we face the problem 'File Content Conversion' Error.

How to custom a conversion error in JSF page in JDeveloper

According to the book "Core JavaServer Faces" p213 (fifth edition), if I add the following line to messages.properties file, and specifiy it in the faces-config.xml and .jsp file, then the displayed conversion error message should be my tailored one instead of the default. However, I still get the default error message. Besides, I didn't find "CONVERSION" variable in UIInput class. Is the book wrong? And what's the correct way?
javax.faces.component.UIInput.CONVERSION=Please correct your input

I didn't choose any special in JDeveloper IDE. I just selected "new" to create a file called "message.properties" and put the line there. I didn't specify converters excepts declaring the type in the Jave Beans. I guess the converting is done by the JSF framework automatically. It must be a JSF converter since I created the page as a JSF page.

Error while impdp: ORA-02374: conversion error loading table

Hi,
I am trying to convert the character set from WE8ISO8859P1 to AL32UTF8 using expdp/impdp. for this I first convert WE8ISO8859P1 to WE8MSWIN1252 in source DB to get rid of “lossy” data. I created new database(target) with character set AL32UTF8 and nls_length_semantics = ’CHAR’ and created all the tablespaces as in source DB with auoexend on. I took full export (expdp) of source DB excluding TABLESPACE,STATISTICS,INDEX,CONSTRAINT,REF_CONSTRAINT and imported using impdp to target DB. I found below error in the import log file:

ME21N--Quantity conversion error in net price calculation

Hi MM experts,
Issue: while creating PO, when attempting to add the net price for line item. but system removes the cost and gives the follow error message says "Quantity conversion error in net price calculation".
The system was not able to convert the order unit into the purchase order price unit. Possible reasons:
i) the conversion results in a net price that is too high, or
ii) the conversion factor for the units has not been properly maintained.
iii) Check whether the units of measure and their conversion factor are correct.
I have checked material master>unit of measure> 1 PL = 22 KG maintained.
Can you please tell me how to resolve this issue?
Appreciated early response.
Thanks in advance.

Quantity Conversion Error in Net Price Calculation

We are currently using SRM 5.0 ECS where we created a material PO and had a problem with the product not having the language E maintain in the material master. This caused the PO to have status of "error in process" Once we fixed this issue and tried to reprocess the PO we're not getting the following error message in the Application Monitor:
No Instance of Object type PurchaseOrder has been created. External Reference
Puchase Order still contains faulty Items
Quantity Conversion Error in Net Price Calculation
Has anyone seen this or know what we can do to resolve this so that the PO gets replicated in R3?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Robert,
Regarding this backend error E 212 06 Quantity conversion error in net
price calculation.
This error is because in the PO Order price unit is empty. And
quantity is null. So, please enter the quantity and order price unit
for this PO and order the PO again. Or you can retransfer the
PO manually using the FM BBP_PD_PO_TRANSFER_EXEC. (for this fm you need
to input the PO header guid, which you will get it from tx.BBP_PD
by providing PO number and object type as BUS2201).
This has worked for other customers.
Hope this helps,
Kind Regards,
Matthew
