Custom delimited CSV Data

I am exporting a Query Data into CSV using http post action block in BLS. I wanted the data to be delimited by |~ along with comma. Is there any available inline transform that can help me do it?

The same xsl has StringDelim (default is ")

What is the best, most efficient way to read a .xls File and create a pipe-delimited .csv File?

What is the best and most efficient way to read a .xls File and create a pipe-delimited .csv File?
Thanks in advance for your review and am hopeful for a reply.

You should have no trouble doing this in SSIS. Simply add a data flow with connection managers to an existing .xls file (excel connection manager) and a new .csv file (flat file). Add a source to the xls and destination to the csv, and set the destination
csv parameter "delay validation" to true. Use an expression to define the name of the new .csv file.
In the flat file connection manager, set the column delimiter to the pipe character.

Filling Mailpackage to send CSV Data - crlf Problem (SP14)

Hi all,
I am using the mail receiver adapter with Mailpackage on SP14 and therefore I want to fill the <content>-Tag. My problem is, I have to fill several lines (CSV-Data) in <content> and don't know, how to build the carriage return linefeed's within my XSLT-Mapping. I tried it with
<xsl:text>
</xsl:text> within the node, but the mail adapter came up with a unprintable sign.
Somebody outthere who solved that problem?
Thanks and regards.
Daniel

Daniel,
If you search this forum using the words "carriage return" you will find numerous hits on this. I had to add a carraige return line feed to a file that I was ftp'ing to a customer. On this forum I found the help using a simple XSLT mapping. Here is the code.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

<xsl:template match="node() | @*">
<xsl:copy>
<xsl:apply-templates select="node() | @*"/>
</xsl:copy>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>
Anyway, if this doesn't work, search the forum and you should find somehting that will work.
Best regards,

Report to fetch the text information from customer master sales data

Dear Experts,
We have come up with a requirement where the business want a report/list of the customers for whom a particular text is not maintained in customer master -sales data.
There are many Z text id are configured and are maintained in Sales data- extras- text. In addition, business also need some key fields from the customer master such as name, city, delv plant, payment terms, sales off, sales grp etc.
I could not get any standard table where the text is maintained with the customer numbers. Table STXH can give the customer numbers for a particular text id type but what is maintained against the given text id is not fetched from the table.
So we need the valuable inputs to realize the requirement.
As an proposal, we are aiming to develop custom Z report with the FM READ_TEXT to get the text information with the customer no ( object type KNVV and text id ). But for the additional information, what should be the actual logic for fetching the data. say if this FM is used, what should be the sequence of the logic and ideal selection parameters.
In addition, we aim to use BAPI BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL2 to fetch some of the customer ifnormation but many fields are not found in this . can we use some other bapi which can provide the complete general/sales data of customer ( delv plant, sales off, sales grp, custo grp, incoterms, payment terms etc)
Kindly suggest accordingly.
Many thanks in advance.

Hi Dharmendra Kumar,
I guess the best would be to check in ABAP General forum on the READ_TEXT sequence/ logic etc..
For customer details, the available BAPIs are:
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL1
BAPI_CUSTOMER_GETDETAIL2
However, you might have to check classes in SE24 to find any existing classes and its method yo give you all the information of a customer. Also check this thread: [BAPI for customer details like in IDoc DEBMAS;

Raghu.

Unable to load CSV data using APEX Data Load using Firefox/Safari on a MAC

I have APEX installed on a Windows XP machine connected to an 11g database on the same Windows XP machine.
While on the windows XP, using IE 7, I am able to successfully load a CSV spreadsheet of data using the APEX Data Load utility.
However, if I switch to my MacBook Pro running OS X leopard, then login into same APEX machine using Firefox 2 or 3 or Safari 3, then try to upload CSV data, it fails on the "Table Properties" step when it asks you for the name of the new table and then asks you to set table properties, the table properties just never appear (they do appear in IE 7 on Windows XP) and if you try to hit the NEXT button, you get error message: "1 error has occurred. At least one column must be specified to include in new table." and of course, you can't specify the any of the columns because there is nothing under SET TABLE PROPERTIES in the interface.
I also tried to load data with Firefox 2, Firefox 3 (beta), and Safari 3.1, but get same failed result on all three. If I return to the Windows XP machine and use IE 7.0, Data Load works just fine. I work in an ALL MAC environment, it was difficult to get a windows machine into my workplace, and all my end users will be using MACs. There is no current version of IE for the MAC, so I have to use Firefox or Safari.
Is there some option in Firefox or Safari that I can turn on so this Data Load feature will work on the MAC?
Thanks for your help. Any assistance appreciated.
Tony

I managed to get this to work by saving the CSV file as Windows CSV (not DOS CSV), which allowed the CSV data to be read by Oracle running on Windows XP. I think the problem had to do with different character sets being used for CSV on MAC versus CSV on Windows. Maybe if I had created my windows XP Oracle database with Unicode as the default character set, I never would have experienced this problem.

Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?

Hi,
I am a new user of Crystal Reports 2008.
I have created a report with charts in it. The input data comes from a csv text file.
Can I set the name of this text file as an input parameter?
as I need to generate 44 similar reports with different text filenames(and data)?
Thank you.
Regards

Brian,
Thanks much.
I did exactly what you said.
Just to see any change, I first gave a bad report file name just to see if I am accidentally pointing to a different file,
but I got an error saying report not found.
Then I renamed my original datafile name and generated a report and it still generated one without giving an error.
Then I also gave a junk name to the logoninfo and printed that name, the new name was assigned to logoninfo, but the code did not error out.
It ended up generating the report.
Now here is what I think is happening,
1) The save data in report option seems to be still on even though I have turned it off in 2 locations
a) file -> Report Options
b) file -> Options -> Reporting tab.
2) For some reason the logoninfo is getting ignored as well.
Since I did not see any answers yesterday I posted a link to this thread on the .Net forum
Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#
and Ludek Uher says that I am connecting to the text file via a DAO database engine and so need to use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database.
But the link he gave me tells me to try the same thing that we have been trying..
Here is my plan,
1) I will first try and find out why my save data with report option is still on ( but it shows off in Crystal ).
2) why is LogonInfo getting ignored.
Meanwhile any suggestions from anyone are welcome.

Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input param? C#

Hi,
I am new to the forums and posted a question which belonged to the .net - SAP Crystal reports group.
Can someone help me with my problem? following is the thread that I have started.
Crystal Report with text(csv) data file, can we set it as input parameter?
Thank you in advance.

Looking at the original thread, you are connecting to the text file via the DAO database engine:
"I added the text file as follow, new connection -> Access/Excell (DAO) -> select the file and the database type as text"
Thus I would use the same code for changing the text file as for changing an Access database. See Kbase [1218178 - Error: "Logon failed" when connecting to Access database in .NET application|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/oss_notes_boj/sdn_oss_boj_bi/sap(bD1lbiZjPTAwMQ==)/bc/bsp/spn/scn_bosap/notes%7B6163636573733d36393736354636443646363436353344333933393338323636393736354637333631373036453646373436353733354636453735364436323635373233443330333033303331333233313338333133373338%7D.do] for more information. If that does not work, you may want to consider connecting via ODBC or feeding the data from the text file to and ADO .NET dataset and pointing the report at the dataset.

How do you add a custom label to dates in contacts.....

How do you add a custom label to dates in contacts- I have multiple birthdays in contact group and want to change label through customise to add additional birthday- unless another way to add second birthday to contacts and identify each one?????? or way to link contacts with same address phone number etc but id birthdays?????

You have some contacts with more than one birthday?
To add a custom label for a date, select Edit for an existing contact. Select Add Field. Select Date. Scroll up with the Info window above the date selection and select Other for the new date selection. Select Add Custom Label and then select this label for the new date field for the contact.
As far as linking dates with multiple contacts, the answer is no to that.

How can I convert a space from ABAP to CSV data?

I try to with   REPLACE ALL OCCURRENCES OF '%' IN string_above WITH space,

But which kind of symbol in CSV represents space?
Thanks for any suggestion!

In the above code u can use make inputtab like tp_data and get the result as requires in an internal table as space seperated fields.
In place of space u can also use any other symbol.
And after that u can replace all occurences of space with the comma by using the statement that u have written below.

FND function to create .csv data file on client machine?

Hello All,
I am trying to create a concurrent request which when run by the user's creates a .csv file with data. I created a procedure in the database which run's when they run the conc.request.
However is there any FND function or anyother function available that creates the data file on the client machine (either in their 'C:\') or in a share drive etc?
Currently through the procedure, I am able to write the .csv data file to a unix directory to which users do not have access.
Thanks,
Chiru

Chiru,
Several options for you to consider are :
1. If you want to have the csv on client machine: Make the program to create the csv in server with a constant name, eg : test.csv and create a dos command in client's machine that is could FTP to server, rename the existing csv file in client's machine and get test.csv from server.
2. If you want to do in share drive : As long as the share drive exists in PC that can be used for FTP, you can create unix host script that can FTP the file to the windows server. For instance, create a generic unix host script that accepts parameter such as filename, and server destination, destination folder, unix login ,password, etc. This program will run in a request set after your concurrent program. If you search google I'm sure you will find samples of unix script that does this kind of thing.
3. As per what Kevin said ,another options is to send the csv file using email to the recipients.

Using PowerShell to import CSV data from Vendor database to manipulate Active Directory Users

Hello,
I have a big project I am trying to automate. I am working in a K-12 public education IT Dept. and have been tasked with importing data that has been exported from a vendor database via .csv file into Active Directory to manage student accounts.
My client wants to use this data to make bulk changes to student user accounts in AD such as moving accounts from one OU to another, modifying account attributes based on State ID, lunchroom ID, School, Grade, etc. and adding new accounts / disabling
accounts for students no longer enrolled.
The .csv that is exported doesn't have headers that match up with what is needed for importing in AD, so those have to be modified in this process, or set as variables to get the correct info into the correct attributes in AD or else this whole project is
a bust. He is tired of manually manipulating the .csv data and trying to get it onto AD with few or no errors, hence the reason it has been passed off to me.
Since this information changes practically daily, I need a way to automate user management by accomplishing the following on a scheduled basis.
Process must:
Check to see if Student Number already exists
If yes, then modify account
Update {School Name}, {Site Code}, {School Number}, {Grade Level} (Variables)
Add correct group memberships (School / Grade Specific)
Move account to correct OU (OU={Grade},OU=Students,OU=Users,OU={SiteCode},DC=Domain,DC=net)
Remove incorrect group memberships (School / Grade Specific)
Set account status (enabled / disabled)
If no, create account
Import Student #
Import CNP #
Import Student name
Extract First and Middle initial
If duplicate name exists
Create log entry for review
Import School, School Number, Grade Level
Add to correct Group memberships (School / Grade Specific)
Set correct OU (OU={Grade},OU=Students,OU=Users,OU={SiteCode},DC=Domain,DC=net)
Set account Status
I am not familiar with Powershell, but have researched enough to know that it will be the best option for this project. I have seen some partial solutions in VB, but I am more of an infrastructure person instead of scripting / software development.
I have just started creating a script and already have hit a snag. Maybe one of you could help.

How to get the CSV,DATA output from RTF template

Hi Jorge
Thanks for your help.
as in the link you have given RTF template can have the output type CSV,DATA but in the preview i can see only html,powerpoint,pdf,html excel .
How to see the output in SCV,DATA format using my RTF template do i need to do specific design for those outputs.
Thnaks in Advance

It is because it has been preconfigured with such outputs.
To modify and add more output types simply go to:
1. Edit your Report
2. Click on "View a List" (upper right hand corner)
3. Click on the "output formats" (corresponding to your layout) and
4. Check (add) the additional output formats you want your report to have.
