Error in Downloading the Text file on Application Server

Hi All,
          I am working on ECC6.0. I have written a program in whcih I am downloading the text file on
          application server in UTF-8 format. However when I am opening this file in Excel I am getting
          garbage value for some characters(as Excel does not support UTF-8 format). So now I
          want to download the data on application server in text file in non unicode format(Like ANSI or
          other non unicode format) which is supported by excel. When I am writing the code as
          OPEN DATASET DN_FILE FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT MODE it is giving me dump saying
          CHARACTER CONVERSION FROM CODE PAGE '4102' to CODEPAGE '1100' NOT POSSIBLE.
          Same in case if I add the code OPEN DATASET DN_FILE FOR OUTPUT IN LEGACY TEXT
          MODE CODE PAGE '8000' is also giving dump.
          So please let me know how can I download the file in non unicode format ?
          Any help would be greatly appricated.
Thanks & Regards
Jitendra Gujarathi.

Hello Kris,
The dump message is as follows:
What happened?
Error in ABAP application program.
The current ABAP program "ZSSR_ORDER_DETAILS_HIER1" had to be terminated
because one of the
statements could not be executed.
This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.
Error analysis
Only character-type data objects are supported at the argument
position "f" for the statement
"TRANSFER f TO ...".
In this case, the operand "f" has the non-character-type "u". The
current program is flagged as a Unicode program. In the Unicode context,
type X fields are seen as non-character-type, as are structures that
contain non-character-type components.

Hi!
You didn't find answer for this, because it is not possible. If you run your program in background, it is running on the server, and does not have any connection to your local machine. That's why you can't upload/download in background mode.
You might try to address somehow your local PC, with its IP or MAC address, but I don't think does this task worth so much time.
Run your program in online mode, or if you want to run it in background, then upload your file into the SAP server.

Download 350MB of data from Application Server to Presentation server

i want to Download 350MB(Around 2.5Million record of Table BSEG) of data from Application Server to Presentation server..
i have tried with the transaction CG3Y and program using open dataset,read dataset,close dataset,ws_download...but went in vain,,,ended with TIMEOUT ERROR..will OPEN DATASET 'path' FOR OUTPUT FILTER 'Compress' be helpful
..please help me ..its urgent..

you can do the FTP with Unix commands..
initially connect to the application server by using command
FTP <app server ip>,then it willl ask for username and password... after successful connection you can use the following commnads to transfer file
lcd <destination path name>(set the dest path)
cd <source path>(set the sorce path),
get <filename to be transfererd>( do the transfer)....
You can do same with ABAP code also, for this you need to use some function modules like..
FTP_CONNECT ( to establish the connection)
FTP_COMMAND ( to execute the commands like cd, lcd get,put)
finally FTP_DISCONNECT to close the open connection...
for further details refer standard program RSFTP002,RSFTP003....
reward points if helpful...

Spool to PDF output in application server

Hi Experts,
           I have a problem with converting spool to PDF. If I download the spool to presentation, the outputs is fine, BUT when I download it to application server and try to view it in al11, a set of characters comes out and if I try to save it on my local drive, an error message pops out stating that it could not read the file because it is either not a supported file type or because the file has been damaged. Please help me. I've tried doing everything I can already. I cannot run the convertion of spool file to presentation because it always ends up as run time error, that's why I have no choice but to run it in background. These files needs to be distributed to all branch offices. Please, please.......help......I'm desperate......

Problem in executing query in RSCRM_BAPI & output in application server!

hi Experts,
We executed a query using RSCRM_BAPI transaction and write it to the application server.We found the following problem.
In the query we have restricted the keyfigures such that each have 2 decimal places but when we execute the query using RSCRM_BAPI and writing into the application server the more than 2 decimal places are coming in to the file.
For example:
In the query the value is 12.12 but in the application server its written as 12.1200000
So the width gets elongated and some of the keyfigures are truncated.
We have already have gone through the restrictions in the SAP Note Number 605208
Please help us to find a solution to get output of keyfigures same as whatever coming in the output of query.
Thanks in advance
Somenath

sorry, i mistakenly sent it in different id....this is my id.......if it is useful assign points to this id...
Using RSCRM_BAPI, RSCRM_REPORT, suitable for simple query.
In your query you are using Restricted, calculated keyfigure.in that case RSCRM_BAPI, RSCRM_REPORT has some restriction.
Check OSS 605208 which describes RSCRM_BAPI restrictions .
Re: Master Data Datasources
You can Modify the Wrtiequery abap program for your requirement.
or
Create a ABAP program for extracting a bw query and upload it in Application server in csv format.

1099 MISC output to Application Server Issue 2010 DME file

Dear all,
I have an issue where I cannot output my clients IRS file to our application server. Using program RFIDYYWT we enter the parameters. The output group is supposed to place the file on the application server, and create using the 2010 DME file.
However, this is not happening.
The strange thing is, I can use the 2009 DME file and create data for 2010. However, this will create it in the 2009 format which is not valid this year.
The most interesting piece is that all of my output groups point to the application server, however I do not specify the file to go there during the program (RFIDYYWT) parameters. I just give my desktop. Still, the file will create on the application server using the 2009 DME.
Again, this does not happen with the 2010 DME. Where is the program pulling the file path from?
If I do specify the file path to the app server during the program parameters, it just creates it in binary. This is true for both the 2009 DME and the 2010 DME. Therefore, I am sure it is pulling a file path from somewhere else.
Any suggestions?
Thanks,

Thanks Shannon, that was very helpful. We're going to go down the route of the OSS note which should address the issue.
We still don't know why the system, in its as is state, acts the way it does. But with the FAQ attached to one of the notes I at least see how to fix it and go about it another way.
Thanks again,
David L.

Downloading a file into an Application Server

Hi All,
I had a requirement to create a file in application server with last field as filler(8spaces).
But while creating a file using 'open dataset' we are not able to get the last 8spaces.
I will be grateful if anyone could help me out in solving this issue.
Thanks,
Anil.

Hi Anil,
Define your filler like this.
DATA BEGIN OF ITAB,
V_FILLER(8).
END OF ITAB.
V_FILLER+0(7) = '#'.
Before using TRANSFER statement, use a REPLACE statement like below.
LOOP AT ITAB.
ITAB-FILLER+O(7) = '#'.
REPLACE '#' WITH SPACE IN ITAB-FILLER.
MODIFY ITAB.
TRANSFER ITAB TO DATASET.
CLEAR ITAB.
ENDLOOP.
Thanks,
Vinay
