Creation flat file, metacols without quotes

Hello,
I created a flatfile by using flat file gg adapter. But in the flat file, all the character metacols are between quotes. I need a flat file without quotes.
In the ffwriter.properties file
dsvwriter.dsv.quotes.chars=
dsvwriter.dsv.quotes.escaped.chars=
With the modification above, I could remove quotes from table columns but not from metacols. Is there anybody who knows how to remove quotes from metacols?
Thnx

Upload table with a flat file Once - without program

Hello,
I know that it is possible to upload a Z table from a flat file. (without program)
I do not have a problem with this table. I manage a maintenance view (SM30) and I can thus enter one by one a recording in this table and to put it in an transport request(R3TR-TABU)
I would like to enter all the recordings only one (with a file.)
I know that it is possible... but how???
Thank you to help me.
Servane

The only other way I know how to put table entries in is thru SE11 Utitlties>Table Contents->create entries. But this does not allow to be uploaded via file.

Problem while writing to fixed length flat file from xml

Hi,
I have a problem in writing data into a flat file of fixed length...
My input is a xml file and i want the output as a flat file. I am successful in converting the xml into flat file... But the main problem is, i am unable to insert spaces in between my fields in the flat file.
The data in the flat file comes without spaces... Any suggestions on writing the schema...
Regards
Surya.

Have a look at this doc
http://otndnld.oracle.co.jp/document/products/as10g/101310/doc_cd/integrate.1013/b28994/nfb.htm#BGBBAJFD
your element should be something like this, it pads with a space using the paddedBy expression
<xsd:element name="C1" type="xsd:string" nxsd:style="fixedLength" nxsd:length="4" nxsd:paddedBy=" " nxsd:padStyle="tail" />if having trouble post what you want the file to look like, and the xsd you are using.

how to pick this file using FCC from sendere flat file adapter without keyfields , and i can use fixed length also

Hi,
with multiple nodes structure( like header and item in your case) you need to have a key field to process this file to a desidered structure using FCC.
Alternatively you can pick all these records as a single node type and classify it as header/items in your mapping by identifiing how each one differs frm other.

Create a flat-file upload for a BO XAI Inbound Service?

Hello all,
If we don't have a schema defined for a BO XAI Inbound Service, how can we create the XSL and the flat-file upload schema file for it.
Any advice?
Regards,
Kerr

I don't have problem to create the XSLT mapping.
But because it is to create a flat-file upload for a Business Object XAI Inbound Service, it doesn't have a schema on the server as to the thread Create Schema for Business Object to use for XAI Inbound Service?
And I can't create that flat-file upload without a schema on the server.
Or I can use the BO XAI Inbound Service WSDL instead to create the mapping for the flat-file upload.

Kerr

Creating JCo IDoc from flat file structure

Hi,
I need to send an IDoc into SAP using JCo.
The input to my program is a string containing lines representing a flat file idoc, e.g.
Line 1="EDI_DC40                           2   ORDERS04.."
Line 2="E1EDK01                                          00000100000001    USD..."
Line 3="E1EDK14                                          0000030000000...."
Is there a simple way to use JCo to create & send the IDoc?
i.e.
1) If I use JCo and RFC IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS, what would be all the steps/calls to SAP (create TID, call IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS, confirm TID..?)
And can IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS be called using the flat file structures (without having to map to all the JCo ParameterList fields)? Since the flat file structures are in the format required by the RFC, just in one long string.
Line 1=>IDOC_CONTROL_REC_40
Lines 2..n=>IDOC_DATA_REC_40
2) Similarly, if I were to use JCo plus the JCO IDoc library, is there a way to pass the flat file structures without having to do all the mapping to segment fields?
3) Other options..?
I want to use ALE to SAP, not files, even though the input is in the flat file structure.

Your reply gives a link to the general JCo documentation.
It doesn't give ideas on how to call an RFC or IDoc from JCO without mapping each and every field from a flat file structure.
I'm looking for a way to do something like this:
Function IDOC_INBOUND_ASYNCHRONOUS has table parameters
      IDOC_CONTROL_REC_40 STRUCTURE EDI_DC40
      IDOC_DATA_REC_40 STRUCTURE EDI_DD40
Since I have the flat file representation of the IDoc, the first line should overlay exactly onto the EDI_DC40 structure. And the subsequent lines should overlay onto EDI_DD40. (all fields in this RFC are strings)
However JCO and JCO IDoc library seem very strongly typed, so it looks like I would have to map each field from the flat file structure to a field in the JCO Function or JCO IDoc object.
This could be done in a generic way using the function/idoc metadata, however there would still be some overhead.
Is there a way to get round this, and build the function/idoc treating its parameters as one long string?

Flat File Active Sync doesn't work for account creation without unique id

Hi,
I'm trying to set up a FlatFileActiveSync for creation and update of accounts in IDM 7.0. I've followed the below steps for this purpose :-
1) Create a correlation rule (confirmation rule not reqd in my case).
2) Create a proxy admin and assign him a empty form. Also give him control over Top organisation.
3) Create a Flat-File Resource Adapter.
4) Create ActiveSync input form using the (Active Sync) wizard.
5) Start Active Sync...
My feed file contains only 3 fields firstname, lastname, email Id.
My correlation rule has the logic of matching up with IDM accounts(Lighthouse accountId) by taking first letter of firstname and concat with lastname from the data coming from feed file.
Now everything works fine for account updates i.e. if I change somebody's email Id who already exists in IDM I can actually see the changed email Id in Configurator's console.
But if I put in a record that doesn't exist, and which I expect to be created, it gives me an error.
Although, if I introduce a unique identifier in my feed file and link it with Lighthouse.accountId the account creation works fine.
Is this a limitation or I'm not doing something right ?
Exception I saw in resource log with log level 4 :

That logic is in my correlation rule as I specified in my initial post and here's the XPRESS code for it :-

<!DOCTYPE Rule PUBLIC 'waveset.dtd' 'waveset.dtd'>

<Rule subtype='SUBTYPE_ACCOUNT_CORRELATION_RULE' id='#ID#D23CC16ECF6E5D42:-4527465C:11224925657:-769F' name='HR_DB_CORR' creator='Configurator' createDate='1177449448746' lastModifier='Configurator' lastModDate='1177686884156' lastMod='61'>

<MemberObjectGroups>
<ObjectRef type='ObjectGroup' id='#ID#Top' name='Top'/>

</Rule>
Although this is not specified in Active Sync input form but in the correlation rule attribute of Active Sync config (using the wizard). Do I need to specify it there using the Field function.
Also, I figured out today that I needed to restart IDM instance after changing the value of "Create Unmatched Accounts" flag and now the error is as below :-

    a) with flexible update
         or
    b) with direct update
3. Create transfer rules and assign tyhe names of m-data and attribute in "Transfer rules" tab and transfer them to communication structure.
4. Create the flat-file with same stucture as communication structure.
5. if chosen direct update then create infopackage and assign the name of flat-file and schedule it.
6. if chosen flexible update the create update rule with assigning name of the infosource and the schedule it by creating infopackage.
Hope this helps. If still have prob then let me know.
Follow this link also.

Export table data in a flat file without using FL

Hi,
I am looking for options where I can export table data into a flat file without using FL(File Layout) i.e., by using App Engine only.
Please share your experience if you did anything as this
Thanks

A simple way to export any record (table/view) to an csv fiel, is to create a rowset and loop through all record fields, like below example code
Local Rowset &RS;
Local Record &Rec;
Local File &MYFILE;
Local string &FileName, &strRecName, &Line, &Seperator, &Value;
Local number &numRow, &numField;
&FileName = "c:\temp\test.csv";
&strRecName = "PSOPRDEFN";
&Seperator = ";";
&RS = CreateRowset(@("Record." | &strRecName));
&RS.Fill();
&MYFILE = GetFile(&FileName, "W", %FilePath_Absolute);
If &MYFILE.IsOpen Then
   For &numRow = 1 To &RS.ActiveRowCount
      &Rec = &RS(&numRow).GetRecord(@("RECORD." | &strRecName));
      For &numField = 1 To &Rec.FieldCount
         &Value = String(&Rec.GetField(&numField).Value);
         If &numField = 1 Then
            &Line = &Value;
         Else
            &Line = &Line | &Seperator | &Value;
         End-If;
      End-For;
      &MYFILE.WriteLine(&Line);
   End-For;
End-If;
&MYFILE.Close(); You can of course create an application class for generic calling this piece of code.
Hope it helps.
Note:
Do not come complaining to me on performance issues ;)

Orders creation from flat file

experts
I am having a flat file like below
hd ponumber customer number podate delivery date
it material1 materialtext quantity price plant
it material2 materialtext quantity price plant
it material3 materialtext quantity price plant
hd ponumber customer number podate delivery date
it material1 materialtext quantity price plant
it material2 materialtext quantity price plant
it material3 materialtext quantity price plant
so here hd represents the header data and it represents the item data for the above header.
so in above i am having 2 sales orders data.
the only way that i can distinquish is with the field hd and it ie what is header and what is item.
I want to pass only one set of data to the idoc function to create the order.
so i want to pass the header and relevant item info.
my itab internal table is having all the data in the above format.
loop at itab into waitab.
*at end of field1 " is not working
here i will be populating the header and item data to create one sales order.
endloop.
so please tell me how to pass at a time one set of data ie header data and relevant item data then next time again header and relevant item data. please help
this is similar to below theread, but belwo theread is using po number but here i dont have that sepearation
order creation logic how to pass line items

Hi,
Can u try thsi logic.
DATA : L_CNT TYPE I VALUE 1,
ITAB_TEMP AS SAME STARUCTRE OF ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB FROM INDEX 1.
IF WA_ITAB+0(2) EQ 'HD'.
L_CNT = L_CNT +1
ENDIF.
IF L_CNT EQ 2
hd ponumber customer number podate delivery date
it material1 materialtext quantity price plant
it material2 materialtext quantity price plant
it material3 materialtext quantity price plant
APPEND THIS DATA TO TEMP TABLE.
ELSEIF L_CNT EQ 3
WE WONT APPEND DATA TO TEMP TABLE.
PROCESS TEMP DATA TO IDOCS.
DELETE ITAB FROM TEMP ITAB . " SO IN ORIGINAL ITAB WE WONT HAVE FIRST ORDER ITEM DETAILS.
REFREST TEMPITAB.
ENDLOOP.
ENDIF.
if u have any further issues u can try while looping itab use sy-tabix appropriately.

IDOC to flat file without XML conversion

Hi,
I want to implement a scenario like this:
IDOC --> XI --> flat file
The flat file has to have the IDOC structure as you have when you write an IDOC to the R/3 file port. But we want to have this process running through XI.
When you use the IDOC Adapter the IDOC is converted to XML first, which is time consuming. So this I want to skip this step.
So is it possible to receive the IDOC directly in XI without converting it to XML? How should this process be designed.
Ron

Ron
Looks like you need IDOC tunneling. It is possible by making a configuration parameter.
You can find more information in http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/ab/bdb13b00ae793be10000000a11402f/content.htm
While you try it, I will try to simulate this requirement in our system and let you know the result.

Why transferstructure creation in the same sequence of Flat file?

Hello Guru,
why transferstructure creation in the same sequence of Flat file?

Hi,
It is very simple see the following ex..
Transfer Structutre:
Material | Quantity
Flat File:
Quantity | Material
SO the mapping is like below:
Material-->Quantity
Quantity-->Material
So is it possible?. NO. SO you must follow the sequence.
Thanks

Load flat files in batch without storing files on application server

Hi SDN-ers
We would like to load flatfiles into BW in batch but .... and this is the tricky part, without storing the file on the application server. We are able to call remote function modules from outside the system so maybe we can attach the file as an internal table with a remote function call and post it in PSA. Anyone ever tried this ?
Thanks,
Hans

Hi,
   I would suggest to upload the data in flat file in a Database table in BW and then
   create a generic extractor on top of it to load the data into Cube or ODS . In this
   way you will have a copy of the data in files.
