Convert created idoc to an output text file

Hi,
How can i convert an idoc to an output text file? is there a standard program in SAP that does this?
Thanks,
Tots

Hi,
We can do it.
The steps are
1. Create a xml file port (we21)
2. Create a partner profile point to the file port.
3. Make sure the idocs are genereated.
4 . Run the staandard program (RSEOUT001) with the port and required details in teh selection screen.
The idocs will be generated to a xml file .
Regards

Ability to create a collection from a text file containing the names of the pictures

1 thing that would be very good is the ability to create a collection / quick collection from a text file that contains the names of the picture we want in that collection...
The reason for that is when i receive an order from a customer typicaly 100-200 different pictures (i'm a wedding photographer), i ask my customer to send me an excel spread sheet with all the name or number of the picture thay want with size & quantity...
I would like to be able to use that file as an input for a batch job that would add all those files to a collection "customer order" instaid od adding them 1 by 1... it would save me lots of time and would prevent some errors in the order...
I am currently able to do that with the help of a small utility (Useful File Utility) is the name... with the other RAW converter i use... Bibble

Well, it is workflow software, true, but it's really focussed on image development. What you're proposing would necessarily make the primary focus be on the business angle, I suspect.
If you're talking about tools to help customers sit down and pick what they want for manual processing later, that's one thing - but going the rest of the distance to order processing and fulfillment would be out of scope, at least in my view. The reason is that there is just so much room for potential variation in how this gets conducted that I can't see how Adobe could possibly satisfy every pro with one implementation. Even just dealing with all of the possible payment vendors is a hugely problematic area.
I agree with Don; a third-party plugin via the upcoming SDK might be a distinct possibility, particularly if it were for a "plus services" solution in which the plugin were designed to work with a specific fulfillment vendor. THAT could work quite nicely, and the plugin might even be free (in return for giving the vendor your business, of course).
In other words, it's not that I see it as a bad idea, it's just that I don't think it belongs in the "core" of LR. This is something that is best dealt with using the SDK so that differences in processes can be allowed for.

Text created in Premiere showing other text files in the timeline and exports.

Hi,
I'm creating slates with text generated in Premiere. For each new slate I am duplicating a text layer, Option + Dragging the duplicate file over the text I'd like to replace, then opening the new text layer in the text editor and updating the information.
Things seem fine at first and then randomly text layers in the timeline will show text from other files in the timeline. If I open the text file up in the text editor I see the correct info but not in the timeline.
The only fix I have found is to delete render files, move the text layer around in the timeline, quit and re-open. But still, sometimes when I export, the export preview window will show the wrong text and when I export the file I create shows the wrong text as well.
It seems like Premiere is getting confused by multiple text files in the timeline and is pointing to the wrong cache files.
Thoughts would be a huge help!

Thanks for the tip Kevin. Anything I can do to avoid this in the future?
I've had this happen on a number of projects. My media and project files are on a SAN, cache and previews are local.
Thanks,

Creating jTbale that reads a text file

hey,
i want to make a Jtable out of a text file such that if there are blank spaces it should enter the text into a new column and if there is a new line then it should be entered into a new row. ...like if there is a text file such as
1 2 3
4 5 6
then it should be entered into a JTable of 2 rows and three columns.....following similar topics in forum I have written something like this
try          {
      Vector data = new Vector();
     vector data1 = new vector();
      String aLine;
     String aDouble;
      FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(selFile);
      BufferedReader br = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(fis));
     //read each double
     while ((adouble = br.readDouble()) != null) {
         // create a vector to hold the field values
         Vector column = new Vector();
         // tokenize words into field values
         StringTokenizer str = new StringTokenizer(adouble, " ");
         while (str.hasMoreTokens()) {
            // add field to the column
            column.addElement(str.nextToken());
         // add column to the model
         model.addColumn(column);
      // read each line of the file
      while ((aLine = br.readLine()) != null) {
         // create a vector to hold the field values
         Vector row = new Vector();
         // tokenize line into field values
         StringTokenizer st = new StringTokenizer(aLine, "|");
         while (st.hasMoreTokens()) {

            row.addElement(st.nextToken());
         // add row to the model
         model.addRow(row);

Regarding Date format in output text file

Hi Frnds,
i am taking the data from vbak table into one internal table T_vbak, in that i am having vdatu field also, and after that using GUI_Download function module i am downloading that internal table data to one text file into presentation server.
But the date format is displaying in yyyymmdd format in the text file, but i want the format like mm/dd/yyyy in the text file, can anybody plz help me....

Hey Bala,
You can use the following conversion routine for converting the date from yyyymmdd format into mm/dd/yyyy.
data: l_date(10) type c.
Loop at t_vbak into wa_vbak.
CONCATENATE wa_vbak-vdatu4(2) wa_vbak-vdatu6(2) wa_vbak-vdatu(4) INTO l_date SEPARATED BY '/'.
wa_vbak-vdatu = l_date.
modify t_vbak from wa_vbak.
Endloop.

Chetan.

Creating idoc,downloading them in flat-files,sending them in zipped form

Hi Friends,
Presently I have a requirement regarding creation of WPDBBY idocs, downloading them in flat files and sending the files in zipped form to the user.
1. In the first program bonusbuy records have to be fetched which have been created/changed during the selection period. for every selected bonusbuy record transaction WPMA is executed which will create an WPDBBY Idoc for the Bonusbuy.
2. In the second program the idocs created are taken as input. first all deletion idocs are sorted. A deletion idoc can be recognized because it only has one segment (E1WPBB01) and in this segment the field AENDKENNZ equals DELE. For every idoc a file is created The name of this file is determined via the Logical file from the selection screen, with a sequence number. It is then saved. All files are zipped en send. After processing of the Idocs, the Idoc status is changed to u201818u2019.
If any of you have information about how to do this then pls tell me. I will definitely reward points for your heplful answers. Thanks!
Regards,
Abhishek

Hi,
For creating zip files and related processing use class cl_abap_zip.
You can check sample code at

Formatting of output text file.

I am writing values of variables to a text file. I also have column headings. Some of the column headings are long, perhaps 14 characters. The field for my variable values is only 8 characters long. Thus I would like to install a tab or two between my column headings so that they line up w my values. How may I do that?

You can specify a length with the format string.
So, if the longest string is 14 characters, specify %14s as the format string. Your text will be right justified. If you want the text to appear at the left, use a format specifier of %-14s.
Don't play around with multiple TABs, it will make the file difficult to read in other apps like Excel.
Now is the right time to use %^<%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S%3uZ>T

Align Columns? using Acrobat Pro 9 to create pdf from text file(s)

Hello,
Every time that I have tried to create a PDF from a text file, the columns dont align. The default Notepad setting I use to view a text file is Courier New which shows the columns aligned. How can I set defaults in Acrobat Pro 9 to have columns align?
Thanks

By definition a plain text file has no font, so it cannot be monospaced. Acrobat converts plain text using Times, this cannot be changed.
As TSN suggests to create a PDF from a text file with a specific choice of font and formatting you must print from another application.

he obviously specifies/knows the column names. (It's not like he was doing select * ...)But what if he was doing select *? And why hard code column names for this query and then have to change them if the query changes when you can write it to be completely dynamic?

Fail to write the text file

hi,
I met a problem when I try to store data to text file. That's the description:
- To read some objects from the binary file
- To update object state, do some operations
- To output some properties of the object to text format file.
That's a part of my code:
{color:#0000ff}
//------ begin ---------//
// ".cluto" is a binary file where store the number of objects as the first object and a set of docVector object
File cluto = new File (config3.getOutputPath (), config3.getOutputFileType () + ".cluto");
ObjectInputStream reader1 = new ObjectInputStream (new BufferedInputStream (new FileInputStream (cluto), BUFFERSIZE));
// output text file definition
File rlabel = new File (config3.getOutputPath (), config3.getOutputFileType () + ".rlabel");
BufferedWriter rlabelWriter = new BufferedWriter (new FileWriter (rlabel), BUFFERSIZE);
// get the first object in ".cluto", the number of objects in the input binary file
Integer vectorNumber = (Integer)reader1.readObject ();
// temporal variable
docVector tVector;
for(int i=0; i<vectorNumber.intValue (); i++) {
tVector = (docVector)reader1.readObject ();
tVector.dimsPruning ();
tVector.updateDimsWeight (config1.getWEIGHT_TYPE ());
rlabelWriter.write (tVector.vectorLableToString ()); // tVector.vectorLabelToString() return a string!
reader1.close ();
rlabelWriter.flush ();
rlabelWriter.close ();
//------ end --------//
{color}
The program works and creates the file ".rlabel", but a binary file instead of text file! Anyone have ideas about this problem?
Thanks

Sorry, I means ".rlabel".
Good news, I fix the problem. In my old code, the I/O stream keeps always opened when I write huge data to the file (See "for" loop). And after the loop, I close the stream.
Now, I open and close the stream in each loop. The problem is resolved.
that's the new code:
// this function is used to write a string to a file
/* write a string to a file */
public void writeStringToFile (String content, String fileName) {
BufferedWriter writer = null;
try {
writer = new BufferedWriter (new FileWriter (fileName, true));
writer.write (content);
writer.close ();
} catch (IOException ex) {
ex.printStackTrace ();
String rlabel = "test.rlabel";
for(int i=0; i<vectorNumber.intValue (); i++) {
tVector = (docVector)reader1.readObject ();
tVector.dimsPruning (prunedTerm);
writeStringToFile (tVector.vectorLableToString (), rlabel);
//------- end ----------//
I don't know whether the open/close operations in a large loop cost a lot.
Thanks

SQLCMD - getting the entire output to file?

Hi All
Ive written my first SQLCMD script using this reference :-
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162773.aspx
but in my output file I only get one line, whereas when I run the sql scripts manually from query analyser it shows (1 rows affected) multiple times down
the results window, how can i get these multiple rows of output to show in my output text file?
Thanks
Stew

Hi ssssstew,
As Hasham has indicated, we might need to see your code. sqlcmd does not support multiple concurrent writings to the same file.
However, you might try this trick from Madhivanan at SQLServerCurry:
http://www.sqlservercurry.com/2011/11/sql-server-handling-multiple-result.html
Turn your query into a stored procedure:
create procedure test
as
select 1 as id, 'test1' as name
select 2 as id, 'test2' as name
When you execute this procedure, it returns two result sets. The following code will copy these two result sets in a table variable.
Then execute it and send the select * from that table to the output file instead:
declare @t table(id int, names varchar(100))
insert into @t
exec test
select * from @t ---output to file
Hope this helps

Convert created idoc to an output text file
