File to File and then Call ABAP Program and pass file name and location

Hi
I am new to PI and am working on the following requirement and some guidance would help:
A file is picked up from a third party server using FTP and is put in an SAP server in a specific location. After I have put in the file successfully, I need to call an ABAP program and provide the name and location of the file for further processing by the ABAP program.
Although I am familiar with File to File, how can I add in the ABAP call with the filename and location? I do not want to pass any other information to the ABAP program.
Thanks for your help.
Manoj

I think I get what you're saying. This additional file would have the file and the path in it's content. I would then use this as a source (FCC?) for Mapping with the RFC. Right?
Exactly and yes, FCC would be helpful
Would you have a sample OS script to do the above?
Actually it depends on the operating system on which your PI system is standing. For instance for Windows, you might try with the following as a start point (but I was not able to test it, so I can't guarantee it will do the job):
cmd.exe /C "%f %F > C:\target_directory\%DATE%_%TIME%.txt"
In case you needed more, try googling on "windows batch script" or similar.
Hope this helps,
Greg

BPM: send 2 different files to same folder and then call RFC

Hi Gurus,
I need the design of this BPM:
2 files are pulled from an FTP site, and both placed in an SAP folder (no mapping required). Once both files are placed, then I will need to call an RFC.
I think in BPM for this:
2 receiver steps (for both files) --> 2 sender steps (for both files) --> 1 transformation (for RFC mapping) --> 1 sender (for RFC)
Am I ok with this?
The only concern is that as the first receiver step starts the process, then for a mandatory reason I don't know I need a correlation on the second. Can I avoid this? how?

Good idea with the dummy correlation.
Does anyone know if I can use only 1 sender CC and get both files and then call the RFC only once?

Can we make ABAP program as executable file

Hi All,
I have query related to abap program.
<b>Can we make ABAP program as .exe file or .bat file.</b>.
<b>If yes then what is the procedure to do the same.</b>
I would really appreciate if anyone can suggest something on this.
Regards
Prabhat

No you can not. Why? Because ABAP is a proprietary language developed by SAP which only runs in the ABAP runtime environment.

account)
(ii) runas /user:<new user account> <fullpath>\excel.exe
it will ask password so enter on command prompt
(iii) open any excel document and click File->Print
(iv) verify result (it is failing) it pop ups below error
Error:`Microsoft Excel

Sorry for late reply i was not at work
I have a default set excel is still throwing error. Interestingly winword , powerpoint and publisher are working fine. I am able to print from all office applications except Excel.
Probably excel behaves differently from other office applications.
Probably it is a bug in excel
Workaround : Log on to a system once using newly created account then runas excel using this account then print works fine.
It means something in user profile should be configure to run excel print operation. Could you please somebody help what I need to configure in user profile that makes print operation success?

We use a doc template to create a purchased part spec document and then save them as pdf formatted files. These part spec documents are also appended with the datasheets for these purchased parts. When we want to update/revise the document, is there a method, using Acrobat, to make those updates to the pdf, or must we go back to the doc template and basically generate a new document?
Also, our resulting pdf documents aren't searchable. How can we generate pdf documents that are searchable? I may want to search for a part value or name within the body of these pdf documents, but currently can't do that...very inconvenient.
Can you assist?

Not totally sure about the search issue. A lot depends on how you created the PDF and what is in the datasheets you attached (like are they graphics?). The doc portion should be searchable as long as you used print to the Adobe PDF printer or PDF Maker. For your use, it may be that the print is adequate. However, the result should be searchable (unless maybe you had a form with filled in fields and created the PDF with PDF Maker. I think the form data may be retained in form fields and the fields are not searchable. In that case, a print might be a better procedure. (it would help to know the versions of WORD and Acrobat as well as the exact process you used to create the PDF.)
If the appended data sheets do not change, then you might try opening the original PDF and then using Replace Pages to replace the file created from the DOC file.

Urgent: Calling ABAP Program using JMS

Hi,
I have a scenario where legacy system pass some messages to ABAP Program and this program can handle one message at a time (written in that way).
Now the receiver communication channel is configured to access J2SE adapter. This J2SE adapter stores the message on R/3 system and triggers the ABAP program located in R/3 system.
Now when multiple messages are coming at a time in SAP-XI and processed successfully and handover to J2SE adapter. But J2SE adapter triggers the ABAP program for all messages. And here is the problem. ABAP program is not supporting multi - threading.
my idea is to use JMS adapter...can you guys suggest me how to achieve result and how to configure JMS or any other adapter to call ABAP Program so that only one message will pass to ABAP program at a time.
Regards,
Gourav Khare

Hi,
First find out where your ABAP program the data written.You need to write it into and spool then only you can see it.
Transaction SP01, you can use the FM 'GET_PRINT_PARAMETERS' in your abap program to write to spool.
Thanks,
Ravi

Call ABAP program on R3 system from BW system

Hi
How can I call abap program residing on the R3 system from the BW system ?
It is simple program (select single from table) returning or not one record.

Ceate a remote enabled function module and call it from anywhere you like.
Make sure the systems talk to one another with defined RFC Destinations
To create RFC destinations use T-code SM59.
Have a look at this link how to create function Modules.

How can I store a form name with path and then call form from a table

Is it possible that any form that I built I store that form in some table in DB and then call that form from table, if yes, then how can i get this functionality. I am not very experience in form and do not know if it can be done because i think if it is possible then this can be a good security for application and easy to handle as well.
Thanks in advance
Maz

If you have a Forms block based on this table:
declare
module varchar2(100);
begin
module := :block.column;
call_form ( module ) ;
end;If you don't have any blok based on that table
declare
module varchar2(100);
begin
select module_name
into module
from ...
where ...
call_form ( module ) ;
end;Francois

Hi, I use facetime regularly with my parents who live outside US and it stopped working. Their ipad2 rings,says connecting..and then 'call failed'. Upgrading their iOS5 (or 6) is not a option as my parents do not know to do this. Please help

Hi, I use facetime regularly with my parents who live outside US and it stopped working. Their ipad2 rings,says connecting..and then 'call failed'. Upgrading their iOS5 (or 6) is not a option as my parents do not know to do this. I came across forums where this issue is mentioned on apple support and cnet.
Is there another option apart from upgrading ?

Well, in his defense, his parents bought him the player so I guess we can't blame him. Though the 6 GB versions were available in November so I guess they really did get 'nervous' about Christmas and like to get their shopping done early! Kudo's to you for trying to remain with the Creative line but for what you're looking for it's obviously not the player for you. Creative seems to be fine-tuning their line for the audio crowd. I'm into mp3 players for the audio. Sure, the ability to watch video's and look at pictures on a decent screen is a plus but for me at least, it's all about the music. And with music, 6 GB is more than enough. Heck, 8 GB would have been more than enough for me. I'm a subscriber to Napster-to-go, so I don't feel the need to carry 00 plus GB of stuff on my portable player. I honestly don't understand the desire to watch movies or TV shows on tiny little screens. But you're also talking to a guy who doesn't watch television. What a complete waste of time and brain cells. Probably the **competitor products we can't discuss here** or one of those players would better suit your needs. Companies are definately picking their niche markets carefully and Creative's decision to not offer hard dri've players any more seems to definately be saying bye-bye to that market. I can't say I blame them. Hard dri'ves eventually give up the ghost and are quite delicate for people on the go. Good ridance, I say. Let Apple, Zune and all the others cater to the Z generation's need to be spoonfed their video/TV addictions anywhere and everywhere. I'll pass. It's one thing to be able to enjoy some music on the go and enhance an otherwise dull work day or dri've. But movies/TV shows at work, school, or wherever? Please. Cut the cord! Just my $.02 - YMMV!
