Fields should be quoted seperated by comma while transferring to text file

Hi Experts,
I need to show the file contents within double quotes and seperated by comma using 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
For eg. The text file contents that are transferred to presentation server should look like,
"00210000001400","21000000149","","0000149","0014","10"
"00210006121500","21000612151","","0612151","1215","10".
I was coded like
**CONCATENATE c_quotes lv_matnr14 INTO lv_first.**
        **CONCATENATE lw_final-extwg+0(2) c_quotes INTO lv_last.**
        **CONDENSE lv_first NO-GAPS.**
        **CONDENSE lv_last NO-GAPS.**
        **CONCATENATE lv_first**
                    **lw_final-ean11+3(11)**
                    **lw_final-yyshortdesc**
                    **lw_final-ean11+7(8)**
                    **lw_final-ean11+9(4)**
                    **lv_last**
               **INTO lw_ps_data**
               **SEPARATED BY c_comma1.**
        **CONDENSE lw_ps_data NO-GAPS.**
        **APPEND lw_ps_data TO rt_ps_data.**
Can u please suggest if there is other better way than this.....?

Error while uploading standard text files for the Global rule set

Hi all,
As part of Post Installation Activities we have uploaded standard text files for business process, functions, risks and rule set obtained with the installable Software.
While uploading the text files we have uploaded the Basis Functions Authorizations first and then R/3 text files.
When we checked no actions are appearing in the rule architect under respective functions except for the BASIS Module.
Is this because we have uploaded the Basis functions before the R/3 text files?If yes, how to replace the Basis with the R/3 ones.
We tried to replace the Basis function authorizations by re-uploading the R/3 text files again but we got the below error message u201CORA-00001:unique constraint (SAPSR3DB.SYS_C004479) violatedu201D
Can somebody please help in this regard how to get the standard rule set in our system?
Thanks and Best Regards,
Srihari.K

Hi Sri,
you should upload first the static text files and the authorization objects first and then the GRC standard rule set files following the instructions of the SAP Configuration Guide available in Service Market Place under http://service.sap.com/instguides .
The GRC standard rule set contains files named Basis_functions_action.txt and R3_function_action.txt. The first one contains ONLY function definitions in terms of transcation codes for basis only, whereas the second one contains functions definition for basis AND ERP modules. The same holds for the *_function_permission.txt files. There are also function definition files for other SAP solutions such as APO, CRM, HR etc.
You can open a customer message and request a deletion script for the rule sets files you have uploaded already. After their application of this script all rule set data will be deleted from your database. If you have uploaded static text and authorization files correctly, you can then upload the GRC standard rule set files as needed again.
best regards,
Frank

Error while sending a text file to client as attachment

I want to download a file on clicking a button. Here is my button code
<input type="button" onClick="showdownloadwindow()" value="Download My file">
The java script showdownloadwindow() should invoke a jsp that has code to construct the text file to be downloaded
Here is the javascript function
<script>
     function showdownloadwindow()
          var url = 'http://<%=request.getServerName()%>'+':'+<%=request.getServerPort()%>+'/downloadtextfile.jsp';
          window.open(url,"","");
</script>
the downloadtextfile.jsp looks something like this
<%
          response.setContentType("text/plain");
          response.setHeader("Content-disposition","attachment; filename=myfile.txt" );
          BufferedOutputStream bos = new BufferedOutputStream(response.getOutputStream());
          String temp="Put some text string for now";
          bos.write(temp.getBytes());
          bos.flush();
          bos.close();
          response.flushBuffer();
%>
i have two problems
1. when the button "Download My file" is clicked a separate window is opened and then the save file dialog box appears. How can I change my code
so that it only shows download window only ( not another browser window)
2. myfile.txt contains some error in addition to the temp string
Here is the error from myfile.txt

Getting error while creating a text file

Hi,
I have one macro which will write all the file names from a particular folder into a text file. However when I run it, I am getting the following error message and only last file of the identified folder is getting added in my text file.
Run Time Error '55'
File Already Open
To reproduce the scenario please add one commandbutton in your excel shhet and add the following code:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim p As String, x As Variant
p = "C:/*.docx"
x = GetFileList(p)
Select Case IsArray(x)
Case True 'files found
MsgBox UBound(x)
For i = LBound(x) To UBound(x)
Open "C:\temp.txt" For Output As 1
Write #1, "File Name " & x(i)
Next i
Close #1
Case False
MsgBox "No matching files"
End Select
End Sub
Function GetFileList(FileSpec As String) As Variant
Dim FileArray() As Variant
Dim FileCount As Integer
Dim FileName As String
On Error GoTo NoFilesFound
FileCount = 0
FileName = Dir(FileSpec)
If FileName = "" Then GoTo NoFilesFound
' Loop until no more matching files are found
Do While FileName <> ""
FileCount = FileCount + 1
ReDim Preserve FileArray(1 To FileCount)
FileArray(FileCount) = FileName
FileName = Dir()
Loop
GetFileList = FileArray
Exit Function
' Error handler
NoFilesFound:
GetFileList = False
End Function
'End Function
For example if I have 3 docx file(1,2,3-name of the files) in my C drive, the o/p that I want in my .txt file will be as follows.
File Name 1.docx
File Name 2.docx
File Name 3.docx
Thanks!!

For i = LBound(x) To UBound(x)
Open "C:\temp.txt" For Output As 1
You call the Open method inside the FOR loop.
BTW, a collection is much more easier.
Andreas.
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim Files As New Collection
Dim File
Dim ff As Integer
File = Dir("C:\*.docx")
Do While File <> ""
Files.Add File
File = Dir
Loop
If Files.Count = 0 Then
MsgBox "No matching files"
Exit Sub
Else
MsgBox Files.Count & " files"
End If
ff = FreeFile
Open "C:\temp.txt" For Output As #ff
For Each File In Files
Print #ff, File
Next
Close #ff
End Sub

How to tackle " . " or " , "Comma DECIMAL notations in text file uploading?

Hi Experts,
I hv to upload the text file via LSMW and creating the Purchse Orders.
So, issue is with QUANTITY and VALUE fileds, bcoz, the text file may some times contain " . " as DECIAML or may some times " , "(comma-Europe) as DECIMALs.
And some times this LSMW may run by US guys, where " ." is DECIMAL and some times Europe guys, where " , " is DECIMAL.
So, request u that, let me know that, How to handle all situations? Is there any FM?
thank u

Hello Srinivas
The easiest approach would be the organizational one:
Assuming that all relevant values have at most two digitals then export all values without decimal sign and interpret the last two digit of any values as decimals values (this approach is used in many EDI messages).
The second approach would be to include a "marker" about the decimal notation in the file.
However, I would always recommend to use the simplest approach (= 1st approach).

'No Upload Authorization' While Uploading a Text File from Multiple Select

Hi all,
   The User is trying to upload a text file from Multiple Selection screen of a Query in BEx and it gives the error message of 'No Upload Authorization' (Error DB886).
   In 'Logon data' tab of Tcode SU01, it has 'User' for 'User Group for Authorization check' for this User.
   I could upload a text file from Multiple Selection screen with my User Id.
   An idea about this error, PLEASE ?
Thanks,
Venkat.

Hi Ron,
   This User does not have the access to Tcode ST01.
   The user executed Tcode SU53 immediately following the authorization failure to see the authorization objects. The 'Authorization obj' is blank and under the Description it has 'The last Authorization check was successful' with green tick mark.
Any further suggestions, PLEASE.
Thanks.

How to go to the next Page while generating a text file ??

All,
I am generating a text File dynamically based on the information from the Database. I need to give some Page breaks after every 80 lines. Does any one has any clue how can I do that.
I am able to generate the file though.
Also I need to set the Font to Courier.
Please let me know if anyone has done anything like this.
I am using "BufferedWriter" for generating the text file.
Thanx

Basically - I have to repeat the header if the records goes to the next Page. My records can increase decrease dynamically as the data is coming from the Database.
I do not know how to find out whether it has reached the next page or not ??
If you know by any chance how can I repeat the header once it goes to the next Page that would be a great help.
Thanx

Problem with Latin Characters while transferring to the file

Hi,
I want to transfer the data to the file. But the problem i m facing is latin characters get converted to unwanted characters.
If i use FM 'SCP_REPLACE_STRANGE_CHARS', it converts latin to english.
But i want latin to be latin itself.
Please help.

hi..
this has more to do with the conceppt of codepage of the system...that u r using..
in some cases the development system is unable to recognise the local characters...and hence it prints junc characters....but wen u move the same to higher system...u can find the desired characters....
Also try one thing ..log in in local (Latin Language ) and upload...even if it does not come in devlopment system...it will come in higher systems...
Hope the above works...Reward points..if helpful...

'FROM keyword not found where expected'error while Inserting into Text file

Hi,
I have created a simple interface for testing purpose. All it has to do is to Read the data from a Source Text file and put it into another text file (exactly the same headers as that of source) ...
I am using Oracle as my staging area.
But at 'Insert column Header' Stage, it gives me a warning 'FROM keyword not found where expected' and when it goes to the next step 'Insert Rows' it gives me the same error 'FROM keyword not found where expected' and aborts its execution.
I checked the query for insertion and found nothing wrong in it (FROM Statement is just where it is expected, that is) but somehow its not working.
Can somebody help me out as i have done it before on other Installations and dont know why it is occuring that too for the simplest thing in ODI ...

Nitesh.

Uploading data to BW from a TEXT file , string fields show error

I am trying to upload a TEXT file to SAP BW:
City     Value   Date
City1    100.00   20060101
City2    200.00   20060102
City3    300.00   20060103
The text file has 3 fields:
City (CHAR -STRING)
Value (Numc)
Date   (Dats)
I have defined a file source system, the infosource and the datasource in order to upload the text file to BW.
When uploading the infopackage of the text file, an error appears for the infoobject of type CHAR (STRING).
The PSA is loading the record but it is in RED status showing that the characters are not allowed in the CITY field.
The upload is made right if i substitute the string with a number, then the upload shows the green light.
I need to upload string values to the CITY infoobject in my infocube, but the infopackage shows the red light when the text file includes characters like 'City1', it only permits numbers in the CHAR field.
Please help me in order to upload a text file with CHAR (string) values to BW.
Thanks in advance for your valuable help.
I am working with CSV files.
Carlos Eduardo España.
[email protected]

Hi Cempro,
Always remember, the input file should have upper case letters. In your case, you have given in lowercase , so please change to upper case and run the Infopackage again. This should go fine.
note: If the input file has lowercase letters, it need a different approach, meaning, you need to check few boxes. So, to avoid all thet, just change in your input file and just run the Infopackage.
Remember, to do an ENTER at the "input file" section in the "external data" tab in Infopackage screen. This way, you are instructing the Infopackage to use the newly changed file.
Thanks,
Raj

Comma seperated fields fetched in a text file

         well in the reporting context,i am lookin forward to fetch data from the internal table and then download them into a text file,the condition of retrieval of the data is that every field should be seperated by a comma in the text file,
