Flat File Upload Unsuccessful

Hi there matez,
I have Info Object BGAN with two other Attributes called BM_CHART and BM_ITEM.
I have already loaded to values for BGAN with data from R/3 but the other 2 BM_CHART and BM_ITEM I have to load from Flat File
So, I have a Flat file which looks as such
Cons COA ITEM
BM        11011111
BM        11011112
I need to feed Info Object BM_CHART with Flat field Cons COA and Info Object BM_ITEM with Flat Field ITEM
   So, I created a InfoSource with Direct Update to Info Object BGAN
   In the Transfer Rule, I only made possible the update for BM_CHART and BM_ITEM (becoz I already have loaded the BGAN field)
   So, I loaded the Flat File but the BM_CHART and BM_ITEM values are NOT updated although my Info Package Master Data showed that I have loaded 373 records.

Eugene mate,
Good to hear from your goodself man! it`s been a while...
Anyways, let me explain my scenario once so you`d be able to understand my predicament
I have extended 0GL_ACCOUNT_ATTR DataSource(from View BIW_SKA1) to bring in BILKT field of R/3 and mapped to Info Object: BGAN.Modified the Transfer & Comm Structure and manage to get the values of BGAN upon creation of Update Rule
 Now, when I view the Contents of 0GL_ACCOUNT and select 0CHRT_ACCTS = 'CABM' instead of 'BMCS' , I can get the values of BGAN displayed next to 0GL_ACCOUNT.
 Now, I have to display the values of 0CS_ITEM into 0GL_ACCOUNT as well. The mapping for 0CS_ITEM is ONE-to-ONE with BGAN
 0CS_ITEM, is written to BW via SEM-BCS, hence I cannot extend the Data Source of 0GL_ACCOUNT_ATTR to include 0CS_ITEM.
 So, I created an Update Rule from 0CS_ITEM into 0GL_ACCOUNT. This brings in value for 0CS_CHART and 0CS_ITEM but I cannot see the values of 0CS_ITEM displayed next to BGAN. It does NOT seem to appear in any combination of my selections in 0GL_ACCOUNT...(it`s as good as saying 0CS_ITEM does not appear in 0GL_ACCOUNT)
 ...Now, since this DID NOT work, I thought of a Flat File Scenario which will hold the mapping of BGAN and 0CS_ITEM...
 Unfortunately, I face similar problem because I cannot get the values of 0CS_ITEM mapped one-to-one with BGAN InfoObject despite 'Activate Master Data' upon successful load of Flat File into BM_CHART and BM_ITEM Info Object(which I made as attribute of 0GL_ACCOUNT)...
 Could you shed some light here mate's ?

Problem in Flat File Uploading

Hi everyone
During a flat file uploading, I get a message for each record of my SKU (Stock Keeping Unit), for eg for SKU 1017023, I got a message
Value '1017023 ' for characteristic PISKU is in external format RRSV 9
PISKU is the field name.
The whole extraction is failing.
Kindly provide me some suggestions as soon as poosible!!
If possible mail me at
[email protected]
Regards
Gajendra Singh

Hi,
It seems there is a space in the value '1017023 '.You have to edit in PSA and then send it again else delete the request and change the flat file entry and reload the data.
Hope this helps

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.

Create a flat-file upload for a BO XAI Inbound Service?

Hello all,
If we don't have a schema defined for a BO XAI Inbound Service, how can we create the XSL and the flat-file upload schema file for it.
Any advice?
Regards,
Kerr

I don't have problem to create the XSLT mapping.
But because it is to create a flat-file upload for a Business Object XAI Inbound Service, it doesn't have a schema on the server as to the thread Create Schema for Business Object to use for XAI Inbound Service?
And I can't create that flat-file upload without a schema on the server.
Or I can use the BO XAI Inbound Service WSDL instead to create the mapping for the flat-file upload.

Kerr

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?

BPC delta flat file upload possible?

Hi experts,
Ive been trying to find an answer of whether or not it is possible to retain member data on manual flat file upload into a dimension. We have created a dimension (employee) and have created some dummy nodes member data and would like to determine if it is possible to then keep this manual member data while manually loading further member data through flat file load. Is this sort of manual flatfile delta load possible? If so how? What is best practice here?
Also, is it possible to load data into a dimension using two methods IE manual upload file and then another form (IE BW load) without overwriting data? Im assuming this is where the merge data option comes in to play.
Any guidance would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Danielle

Hi Danielle,
While uploading data, if you have added dimension members manually, then, it never gets deleted untill and unless you specify for it.
In your scenario, you have created dummy members and want to upload data thru flat file. Then, the data will be uploaded only for those members for which you want to upload data, rest of the members will display the old data.
As you rightly said earlier, while running data manager package, you need to select MERGE option instead of REPLACE & CLEAR data values. This keeps the old data intact and adds the new ones as well.
Hope this clarifies further.

Poonam

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.

Beginner - Flat file upload error Help Please

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to upload a flat file [.csv] for the first time.
I created Info objects Material Id, Material Name , Price as keyfigure.
Material Id holds Material Name and Price as attributes and is With Text and With Master Data.
For the Keyfigure, Price, I have selected Amount and defined as USD.
In the flat file, i have Material id, Material Name, Price, Description for Text, its something like this
Mid         M-Name   Price      DESCRIPTION
10001     A              99.99     AA
When I create an Application Component and thereafter create a data source for master data attributes for Material
and select the flat file and upload it, then the data types for Keyfigure PRICE changes to FLTP Length 16, its no longer as DEC and i get some werid data for Price field, something like
"99.990000000001E+02" instead of 99.99.   Why am I having this problem and how could this be resolved ?
I thought i would start off with my best foot forward but it didnt work. Any kind of help would be highly appreciated. Thanks guys..Byee

Web Dynpro component - Flat file upload

Hi,
We have a requirement to upload a flat file to Planning cube (real time cube) through Web Dynpro component.
Web Dynpro component which we have developed is able to read the records from the flat file.
Now, the issue is u201CHow can we save the records read from the flat file to planning cubeu201D?
If anyone has worked on the similar requirement, pls reply. Thanks in advance.
Note : We have a planning sequence which will be executed on the click of UPLOAD button.
This planning sequence has a filter on Infoprovider (cube which we are using for planning) and a planning function of type u201CFile uploadu201D in which we have defined the flat file format.
Aggregation level is made on Multiprovider which has 2 underlying cubes (One is realtime and other one is standard).
Is there any function module in which we can pass the name of the flat file so that it will be uploaded in planing cube?
Regards,
Ankur
