Download SPOOL to an internal table in Background

Hello,
I want to Download the Spool to an internal table, but in Background, the functions
RSPO_RETURN_SPOOLJOB
RSPO_RETURN_ABAP_SPOOLJOB
don't work.
Does anybody know another function or way to do it?
Thank you very much,
Maite.

Hello,
Thanks for your help but I'm afraid it doesn't work...
In my system the function SO_SPOOL_READ doesn't exists... It might be obsolete.
The function RSPO_DOWNLOAD_SPOOLJOB doesn't work in Background... it sends a message xxx bytes transferred and cancels the job. and the file it is not created.
I don't know why these RSPO functions work in different way in background...

Problem in downloading spool data into internal table

Hi,
I am using the FM, RSPO_RETURN_ABAP_SPOOLJOB to get data from spool to internal table. but the problem is length of each line in spool is more than 500 characters. data which is dowlnoaded into the internal table using the above FM is truncated to 255 characters. Is there any way to fetch all the characters ?
Best Regards,
Phani Kumar. S

Hi
Try FUNCTION 'RSPO_RETURN_ABAP_SPOOLJOB_RAW'.
TYPES: BEGIN OF normal_list,
           data_line(1000),
         END OF normal_list.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSPO_RETURN_ABAP_SPOOLJOB_RAW'
    EXPORTING

    TABLES
      buffer               = i_rdidata

Is it possible upload local file to internal table in background mode?

Hi, all,
Is it possbile to upload local file(not server file) to internal table in background mode.
If possbile ,please tell me detail . Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Lily

Hello,
This is possible.
If you report has to be executed in background using schedule Job. Then the file path should be constant and it can be hard coded in the report itself while populationg the internal table.
Then create a variant for your report and use that variant in the job.
This will solve your problem I guess.

Internal table in background job

hi everyone
I have to process 4 internal tables to send to spool in background
HOw should the parameters be passed?
I have used the
SUBMIT /EU000/FI_PAYMENT TO SAP-SPOOL
SPOOL PARAMETERS mstr_print_parms
WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO.
but I dont know how I shd pass the internal tables
Plz help

Hi sia anjali.....
There is one concept in Spool Request,,, You can only produce a spool of a thing which you are writing....
for ex your report consist of 4 internal Tables,,, Then you can easily Produce a single spool request for all the 4 Internal tables with it's contents...
I am giving you the sample code for 2 Internal Tables.......... In this case you have to use two reports....
for ex.....
(1)- The first Report will only consist of the submit statement.....
REPORT ZTEST99                                 .
SUBMIT   ztest100           TO SAP-SPOOL
                                      DESTINATION         'LP01'
                                      IMMEDIATELY         ' '
                                      KEEP IN SPOOL     'X'
                                      WITHOUT SPOOL DYNPRO AND RETURN.
(2)- The second Report will consist of your internal tables that you want to display.......
*& Report ZTEST100                                                    *
REPORT ZTEST100                                .
data: begin of itab occurs 10.
      include structure mseg.
data: end of itab.
data: begin of itab1 occurs 10.
      include structure bseg.
data: end of itab1.
start-of-selection.
select * from mseg into table itab up to 10 rows.
select * from bseg into table itab1 up to 10 rows.
loop at itab.
write:/ itab-mblnr, itab-mjahr.
endloop.
uline.
loop at itab1.
write:/ itab1-bukrs, itab1-belnr.
endloop.
now this wil produce the spool request in SP01 T-code..........
If have any other queries do let me know......
Thanks

Chesat,
You can not work for this requirement.You will have an idea on it.
Introduction
The use of FTP from ABAP seems to have been a hot topic on the ABAP Forums of late. I thought I might sit down and document whatever I could find on this subject and share it as a weblog.
Over the years I have seen lots of different solutions for moving files on and off of a SAP system. I have seen external FTP scripts written in OS shell languages. I have seen full blown custom applications that are made to interface to the SAP system. However I think you will find that most of the technology you need to perform a simple FTP from ABAP is already contained in the standard system. All of my examples and screen shots will be coming from a 46C system.
SAP's Solution
If you have ever taken a look at the kernel directory of your SAP system, you might have noticed an interesting little executable: sapftp.exe (the name of the file on Windows SAP Kernels). It is this part of the Kernel that exposes FTP functionality to the ABAP Programming language.
So you have a suspicion that there is FTP functionality in ABAP, but youre not quite sure how to use it. Where do you start? I always turn to the Service Marketplace first. A quick search on SAPFTP reveals there is an entire component (BC-SRV-COM-FTP) on the subject. The most general note and our starting place is OSS Note 93042. This note starts off with a nice description of what SAPFTP is: A client RFC application that is accessed via RFC from ABAP. But we also find out that in addition to SAPFTP being part of the kernel, it is also part of the SAPGui. That means that we can perform FTP commands originating from our R/3 Server or from a Client Workstation.
Well if this solution is accessed via RFC, then we must have to setup some RFC destinations. In fact we have two that we need; SAPFTP for Front-end FTP and SAPFTPA for access on the application server. Luckily we don't even have to mess with setting these RFC destinations up in SM59. SAP has supplied a program, RSFTP005, to generate the destinations for us.
Now before we go off and start written code on our own to hit these FTP functions, why don't we make sure everything is setup and working. Once again SAP has helped us out by providing us with a test program, RSFTP002. (In case you are wondering the FTP functionality and many other test programs are all contained in SAP Development Class SFTP). When we run this test, we get a set input parameters for the server, username password, etc. We want to start out simple and just make sure we are getting a connection. Therefore we will just execute the pwd command (Print Working Directory).
Your answer back should look something like this:
If you are wanting to see a list of FTP commands, try using the command HELP in place of PWD:
If something did go wrong during the test, I suggest that you active the trace option in SM59 for the FTP Destination. You can then use program RSFTP001 to display the current trace file.
Programming the FTP
Not only does the RSFTP002 program give us a test environment, but it also provides us with a programming example. We can see that the FTP functionality is really provided by a set of function modules all within the SFTP Function Group. We have the basic commands such as FTP_CONNECT, FTP_COMMAND, and FTP_DISCONNECT that can be strung together to create a complete file operation action. The FTP_COMMAND Function allows you to issue arbitrary FTP commands as long as the SAPFTP function, the Host, and the Destination server all support the command. Then you have the specialized functions such as FTP_R3_TO_SERVER, FTP_R3_TO_CLIENT, and FTP_CLIENT_TO_R3. This lets you take some data in memory and transfer it someplace else. This has the advantage of not having to write the data to the file system first and not to have to issue any FTP commands. However these functions are also limited to the scope described.
If you are already familiar with FTP in general, working with these function modules should not seem to difficult. The Connect, Command, Disconnect actions would seem somewhat self explanatory. So instead of looking at the entire program in detail let's focus on two things that may be unfamiliar. First the program starts off with an ABAP Kernel System call to AB_RFC_X_SCRAMBLE_STRING. Well we don't want to pass a potentially sensitive password openly. Therefore the FTP_CONNECT function module requires that the password be encrypted before it receives it. It is this System call that performs that one-way encryption. Now I checked a 620 SP42 system and in this example, SAP has replace the AB_RFC_X_SCRAMBLE_STRING with a function call to HTTP_SCRAMBLE. Unfortunately HTTP_SCRAMBLE doesn't even exist in my 46C system. The only other thing that I wanted to point out about these function calls is the exporting parameter on the FTP_CONNECT. It passes back a parameter called handle. This handle then becomes an importing parameter to all subsequent calls: FTP_COMMAND and FTP_CLOSE. This handle is the pointer to the instance of FTP that we started with the FTP_CONNECT. This assures that we get reconnected to the same FTP session with each command we issue.
FTP Development
I thought I would share a few of the things that can be built using this FTP functionality. First off I didn't want a bunch of ABAP programs directly working with the SAP FTP Function modules. As you can see there is already a difference in the examples for encrypting the password between 46C and 620. Therefore I thought it would be best to encapsulate all the FTP function in one custom ABAP OO Class. Not only did I get the opportunity to hid the inner SAP functionality and make it easy to switch out during upgrades, but I also get consistent error handling as well. I accept the User Name, Password, Host, and RFC Destination in during the Constructor of the class. I then store these values away in Protected Attributes. Each function module is then implemented as a Instance Method. The Password encryption functionality is then all tucked away nicely in the class. Also the calling program doesn't have to worry about keeping track of the FTP handle either since it is an instance attribute as well.
Next I got really carried away. I wanted a way to record entire FTP scripts that could be filled with values at runtime and ran as a step in a background job. My company used to have many interfaces that ran frequently sending files all over the place. We needed a mechanism to monitor and support these file moves. This was really the root of this tool, but it also gives you an idea of how powerful these functions can be.
Closing
I hope that anyone interested in FTP from ABAP will find this resource useful. If anyone has any other resources that should be included here, feel free to post them.

I've been in IT for over 30 years as a mainframe contract programmer/analyst. Recently a company hired me for my legacy knowledge of there business to become a developer on SAP for these same systems.
My first task is to develop a generalized ftp application to send data to the mainframe and then on to financial institutions. I have created an ABAP/4 test program with literals for the dest/host etc. And it works fine. I need more detail/guidance in creating the Class/Method/Function you have described to make this parameter driven and callable by other programs. I know this is a lot to ask, any help in pointing me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. When I mention class creation to the existing staff they all say "Oh, we don't use or know anything about that object oriented stuff, we just right programs."
Thanks,
Tom

"we don't use or know anything about that object oriented stuff" That's something I might have expected to hear 4 years ago. That's kind of like saying that you only want to use half of the programming lanuage (the old half at that).
However it is true that you have to learn to walk before you run. There are some fundamentals to ABAP that are usefull to have down before you start in with ABAP OO. But I wouldn't let that hold you back for long.
I'm afraid that I wouldn't be able to teach you everything you would need to know to create a function module or a class in this posting. There was a nice weblog that was just posted the other day that had the steps to create your first simple class. I suggest you start there.
As far as my FTP class goes, I don't mind sending you the code for the class. My email address is already all over SDN (and spammers' lists) so just send me the address that you want the details sent to. My email is [email protected].

...any chance you've used FTP via an HTTP proxy?
Any help using the HTTP* functions in the ZFTP function group will be greatly appreciated. Any one?
Thx
     Good suggestions - now...

I'm afraid I haven't done either. However I have used the HTTP client functionality in the WebAS 620 (if_http_client) along with an HTTP proxy. I have an example of this in another weblog.

Upload Excel table to internal table in background

I am using fm ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE to upload Excel tables from the Application Server. The process works great in foreground mode.
My program requirement is to call an ABAP object from the SAP Job Scheduler (SM36/SM37). So when I run the ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE in a background job, the programs abends. In the job log, I get error ALSMEX037 Error during import of clipboard contents.
Has anyone seen this error? What causes this error? How can I get around this error in a background job?
<<text removed>>
Edited by: Matt on Mar 5, 2009 1:55 PM - do not offer rewards

Hi,
From background its not possible for you to upload an excel file because the background jobs are run in different processors and they are not directly linked with the pc where the file is stored so the better way to read the excel file is to write another program and execute in frontecd which will read the excel file and store it on the application server and then from application server its easy to retrieve data into an internal table using open dataset and close dataset....

How to download leading zeros from internal table to XL file

Hi,
i am dowanloading data from interna table to XL file using GUI_DOWNLOAD FM. i want download the leading zeros also into xl file
EX: 012345
at present only "12345" is down loading into XL file. But i want "012345" into XL file.
Please help me.

Hi,
Can you try with DBF format(Pass FILETYPE = 'DBF'? I remember that in this format data will be downloaded in database storage format. Just check and update if it works!!!
This is what FM documentation says.
'DBF' :
The data is downloaded in dBase format. With this format, the data types are stored as well, For this reason, import problems can be avoided - for example, problems with Microsoft Excel. In particular, you can avoid problems with the interpretation of numeric values.
Thanks,
Vinod.
