Flat File Upload from WebDynpro ABAP

Hi,
I am struggling to find a solution for this requirement and I hope I get some help from the Gurus here.
I have to upload a ".csv" file from the WebDynpro application, and then store the data in the flat file in a Z# table.
Can some one explain me how to go ahead with this requirement??
Regards,
Nadh

Hi Nrisimhanadh Yandamuri ,
After reading the csv file using file up load you can use the following code to tranfer the same to an itab of your required format
    DATA : loc_conv TYPE REF TO cl_abap_conv_in_ce,
      var_string TYPE string.
Convert XString to String
    CALL METHOD cl_abap_conv_in_ce=>create
      EXPORTING
        input       = item_content
        encoding    = 'UTF-8'
        replacement = '?'
        ignore_cerr = abap_true
      RECEIVING
        conv        = loc_conv.
*Read the file contents
    TRY.
        CALL METHOD loc_conv->read
          IMPORTING
            data = var_string.
      CATCH cx_sy_conversion_codepage.
*-- Should ignore errors in code conversions
      CATCH cx_sy_codepage_converter_init.
*-- Should ignore errors in code conversions
      CATCH cx_parameter_invalid_type.
      CATCH cx_parameter_invalid_range.
    ENDTRY.
    SPLIT var_string AT crlf INTO TABLE it_string_tab.

Flat File Upload from Network

Hi gurus,
i understood that there is a posibility to upload data from a flat file directly from the network. I know how to upload it from the PC, but how do I put the folder on the network?
Thanx,
Ramona

Hi Ramona,
First of all make sure, that every user has sufficiant auothraization for durectory required on application server,
Now you (or the users) are able to access it in windows after mapping to a drive represented by a caharcter ( e.g. ''R").
This is done in Windows Explorer "EXTRAS". It will appear as a new folder in explorer and can be handled like a "normal" one.
If you have any doubts contact your basis guys, they are surely familiar with this process.
Hope it helps

File Upload from Webdynpro to R/3 Server

Hi all
We have a scenario. In that we want to upload any type of file (can be .txt, .pdf, .doc, .xls, .jpg, .gif etc.) to the R/3 server. We r using a FileUpload UI Element.
The problem is we want to pass the contents of the file (any type of file) to the rfc.
If anybody knows the solution for this please help us.
(It will be of great help if u give the code)
Thanks & Regards
Aparnna

Hi Aparna,
It happens becuse u r trying to access the byte array of the file in a loop.
For small file it will not make any pblm, but for for big files, the loop may have to iterate millions of times which result in server hang.
So dont try to access the byte array in loop in ur code. Try to pass the byte array u r getting as whole to RFC.

FLAT FILE UPLOAD INTO BI

Hi,
What kind of questions are needed to be asked (from client) for requirements gathering for a flat file upload (from legacy system) to BI? Basically what are all the questions that i need to ask them to make sure I have all information for designing a flat file extractor?
Thanks

I would ask them what do they want to report on from the legacy system and is data already in R/3? I would also ask what kind of data is stored in the legacy system .... inventory, financial data, sales, etc ... Once I knew that, I would ask what do they want to report on .... stock quantities/costs, gl account data, revenue, deliveries, etc....
Then I would ask, do you want this to be seperated from the R/3 datastream? More than likely this will be yes, if not, fight to keep it seperated and possible in it's own cube/ODS and combine in a multiprovider (you need to use the same 0material, 0customer, 0vendor, 0gl_account info objects if you want to combine nicely on a multiprovider).
If the database the legacy system is on is either SQL Server or Informix or Oracle, you may want to consider DBConnect and connect directly to their tables.
In all cases, I try to avoid bringing everything in "just because we may need it". If the system is legacy and it's been a legacy for 2 years, see what people keep going back for and grab that data only. If someone claims to need data, but have not sought it out for 2 years, then the probably don't need it.
Also, check the granularity of the data. Do they need individual documents for legal reasons? Can you summarize the data? What are they going to use the data for?

Reg File Upload Object in abap Webdynpro

Hi Friends,
Would like to enquire one doubt in the file upload object in abap webdynpro.
By default when we press the browse button, near to the file name there is a button which shows the the file types like:
., *.html, ,gif,.jpeg etc.
Is there any way we can control that, as i have an requirement where in to upload only certain extension types.
thankyou.

HI,
I would suggest you to follow this approach :
1. Create a Table in your View in which FileUpload is there.
2. Populate this value with valid file extension.
3. Make it invisible by default.
4. Now when you have entered value in Fileupload and click on Ok button.
5. Check whether Mimetype matches any value in Table.
6. If it is invalid, Throw an error message and mke Table of Valid extension Visible.
Sample code to have Table with Valid entries.
types : begin of str,
             valid_ext type string,
         end of str.
data : wa type str,
          itab type table of str.
wa-valid_Ext = 'EXL'.
append wa to itab.
wa-valid_ext = 'DOC'.
append wa to itab.
lo_nd->bind_Table( itab ).
here lo_nd is your ref to node of Table having valid extensions.
7. Bind this Table's Visible property wiht wdui_visiblity .
8. Set it Visible - 02 , Inviisible - 01.
I hope it is clear.

Debugging is not working in R/3 from WebDynpro-ABAP developed webpage input

Dear Friends,
We are facing a serious problem for debugging. Expecting valuable input for the same.
Debugging is not working in R/3 from WebDynpro-ABAP developed webpage input in Production Server.
The debugging (for WebDynpro-ABAP application) is working in Dev. Server for
1st ] Within R/3
Ex. debug for bapi within R/3. i.e. value enter as input in R/3 only.
2nd ] From webpage to R/3
Ex. Some input given on the internet web page developed through WebDynpro and external breakpoint set in R/3 it works. It directs to R/3 code through debugging.
In Prod. Server the 1st case above is working but the 2nd case is not working.
In Prod. Server the WebDynpro developed applications are running successfully through internet explorer webpage inputs. So running the application is not a problem in prod. Server but debugging of the same is the problem.
The setting which are done in Prod. server are,
1] RZ10 in parameters are set for port and host name.
2.1] In SMICM check for ICM.
2.2] Host file updated in Windows-System 32.
3] In SICF following services are active,
3.1] default_host/sap/bc/webdynpro
3.2] default_host/sap/public/bc
3.3] default_host/sap/public/bc/webdynpro/viewdesigner
3.4] default_host/sap/bc/wdvd
3.5] default_host/sap/public/icman
3.6] default_host/sap/bc/gui/sap/its/webgui
3.7] default_host/sap/public/ping
3.8] default_host/sap/bc/error
3.9] default_host/sap/bc/echo
4] In SE80
4.1] Internet services-System-are published
4.2] Internet services-WEBGUI-are published
4.3] Utilities-Setting-ABAP Editor-Debugging-Username & New Debugger set.
4.4] Utilities-Setting-ABAP Editor-Editor-Front-End Editor(New) set.
5] In Su01 for user profiles sap_all & sap_new is assigned and role SAP_BC_WEBSERVICE_DEBUGGER is assigned.
6] The support packages are also updated to latest level.
7] Gone through following links but not getting any clues.

BPS Flat File Upload Error Messages

Hi,
I am using the BPS flat file upload and am getting error messages. These error messages are coming from the user exit in the characteristics relationships. Unfortunately the message does not indicate which line on the upload file the error is for. In the user exit it does not pass the line no of the flat file that is being processed.
Does anyone have any ideas how the message could be enhanced to indicate the line in error or if there is another exit I could perform the validation in?
regards
Paul Cairncross

Hi Sai,
The issue is not the particular message. The message is in fact my message in the user exit in the characteristic relationships. The issue is when using the flat file upload the message does not indicate which line in the file the message apply's to. Looking at the userexit no line number is passed. This is not a problem in the web as the specific line is highlighted when the user is keying in the data.

How to Save a file uploaded in WebDynpro Java to Windows server

Hi Guys,
I need to save a file uploaded in WebDynpro Java to a location on one of my companys many internal Window servers but I cannot get it to work. I do not get any errors with the following code, but NOTHING happens... And when I check the folder it is still emply... Please advise. I am particularly not sure about specifying the Path syntax. Also, I do have permission to write to this server. Is it even possible to save to a Windows server from WebDynpro??
//uploaded document already in context...
byte[] file = element.getFileResource();
            //    get the size of the uploaded file
            element.setFileSize(this.getFileSize(file));
            wdContext.currentContextElement().setFSize(this.getFSize(file));
            //    get the extension of the uploaded file
            element.setFileExtension(binaryType.getMimeType().getFileExtension());
            String fName = wdContext.currentContextElement().getFName();
            String fExt = wdContext.currentContextElement().getFileExtension();
            String foName1 = "
server01.w9\Files\P
HRP_Attachments\" + fName + ".pdf";
            File f1 = new File(foName1);
            DataOutputStream dos1;
            dos1 = new DataOutputStream(new FileOutputStream(f1));
            dos1.write(file);
            dos1.flush();
            dos1.close();
Edited by: christiaanp on Sep 30, 2011 8:07 AM

Hi Christiaan,
When specifying the path, make sure you escape the slashes
So, when you would normally use something like
\\server\path\file.txt
in your code you must use it in the form:
String fileName = "\\\\server\\path\\file.txt";
Hope this helps!

Flat file Upload BSP page

Hi Marc,
I am following the July version of how-to. When generating the BSP page, I am told checkbrowser.htm and js.htm are not available. When I create a checkbrowser.htm and point the include to js3.htm, which is one of the page fragment available, there are a few other errors coming out. What am I missing?

Do you already know if the flat file upload is possible from a multi planning area? Because I get the error message that my multi planning area does not exist when executing the function.
Thnx.

Hello,
Hello, are you sure you have your ADS credentials configured correctly and valid? I guess you know that is the only difference between clicking enabled on true or false. If you are not sure, you can use SE38, search for FP_* and pick some reports to check the licencing. The names of the reports are good enough to recognize the right one.
Or maybe that is a security problem? Have you checked the ADS_ERROR string? Did you use the ADS trace?
