FM to get F4 for application server file or logical file or dataset .

Hi all.
Can any body pls let me know the FMs to get the F4 for applicattionserver file or logical file or unix file or dataset. Thanks in advance.
Kind Regards,
sami.

hi,
use the FM: 'F4_DXFILENAME_4_DYNP' in the below mentioned format:
p_file: is the field name in selection screen in which you have to enter the filepath:
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR p_file.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4_DXFILENAME_4_DYNP'
    EXPORTING
      dynpfield_filename = 'P_FILE'
      dyname             = sy-cprog
      dynumb             = sy-dynnr
      filetype           = 'P'      "P-->Physical
      location           = 'P'     "P Presentation Srever
      server             = space.
hope it will help you

Need utilities class for application server file system (i.e. unix etc)

I need to do things to directories and files on the application server.
Is there an SAP class with methods for the application server file system (i.e. unix or whatever) with functionality similiar to what is provided by the methods of CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES for the presentation server?
Is there a group of SAP functions for this task?

You may have a look at Thomas Jung article: [sdn contribution : ABAP Server Side File Access, by Thomas Jung|http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/index?rid=/library/uuid/7a13f367-0401-0010-47ba-eab0b15cf31c]
Moreover, in release 7.10, it could be possible that SAP introduced input and output stream classes (to mimic java classes), so I guess there could be the ones for application server file system.

File path for application server file

Hi All,
             I have a file 'abc.doc' stored on the application sever.
            I want to crate a document using the BAPI_DOCUMENT_CREATE and store this file
            What is the file path that I need to pass into the bapi.
Please help
Warm Regards
Sunil Kumar.

Hello Sunil
You are right. That's the file path you should specify. It looks like your application server is running on UNIX platform. You can use transaction AL11 to locate your file and specify the file path in normal unix format. If this doesnt work, you can try prefixing your file path with "file:// ".

Application Server file to internal table

Hi,
How can i read the application server file into the internal table?? Which FM should i use??
Regards,
Kit

Hi,
Open Dataset is used to read or write on to application server ... other than that i am not sure that there exists any way to do the same ... here is a short description for that
FILE HANDLING IN SAP
Introduction
Files on application server are sequential files.
Files on presentation server / workstation are local files.
A sequential file is also called a dataset.
Handling of Sequential file
Three steps are involved in sequential file handling
OPEN
PROCESS
CLOSE
Here processing of file can be READING a file or WRITING on to a file.
OPEN FILE
Before data can be processed, a file needs to be opened.
After processing file is closed.
Syntax:
OPEN DATASET <file name> FOR {OUTPUT/INPUT/APPENDING}
IN {TEXT/BINARY} MODE
This statement returns SY_SUBRC as 0 for successful opening of file or 8, if unsuccessful.
OUTPUT: Opens the file for writing. If the dataset already exists, this will place the cursor at the start of the dataset, the old contents get deleted at the end of the program or when the CLOSE DATASET is encountered.
INPUT: Opens a file for READ and places the cursor at the beginning of the file.
FOR APPENDING: Opens the file for writing and places the cursor at the end of file. If the file does not exist, it is generated.
BINARY MODE: The READ or TRANSFER will be character wise. Each time n characters are READ or transferred. The next READ or TRANSFER will start from the next character position and not on the next line.
IN TEXT MODE: The READ or TRANSFER will start at the beginning of a new line each time. If for READ, the destination is shorter than the source, it gets truncated. If destination is longer, then it is padded with spaces.
Defaults: If nothing is mentioned, then defaults are FOR INPUT and in BINARY MODE.
PROCESS FILE:
Processing a file involves READing the file or Writing on to file TRANSFER.
TRANSFER Statement
Syntax:
TRANSFER <field> TO <file name>.
<Field> can also be a field string / work area / DDIC structure.
Each transfer statement writes a statement to the dataset. In binary mode, it writes the length of the field to the dataset. In text mode, it writes one line to the dataset.
If the file is not already open, TRANSFER tries to OPEN file FOR OUTPUT (IN BINARY MODE) or using the last OPEN DATASET statement for this file.
IF FILE HANDLING, TRANSFER IS THE ONLY STATEMENT WHICH DOES NOT RETURN SY-SUBRC
READ Statement
Syntax:
READ DATASET <file name> INTO <field>.
<Field> can also be a field string / work area / DDIC structure.
Each READ will get one record from the dataset. In binary mode it reads the length of the field and in text mode it reads each line.
CLOSE FILE:
The program will close all sequential files, which are open at the end of the program. However, it is a good programming practice to explicitly close all the datasets that were opened.
Syntax:
CLOSE DATASET <file name>.
SY-SUBRC will be set to 0 or 8 depending on whether the CLOSE is successful or not.
DELETE FILE:
A dataset can be deleted.
Syntax:
DELETE DATASET <file name>.
SY-SUBRC will be set to 0 or 8 depending on whether the DELETE is successful or not.
Pseudo logic for processing the sequential files:
For reading:
Open dataset for input in a particular mode.
Start DO loop.
Read dataset into a field.
If READ is not successful.
Exit the loop.
Endif.
Do relevant processing for that record.
End the do loop.
Close the dataset.
For writing:
Open dataset for output / Appending in a particular mode.
Populate the field that is to be transferred.
TRANSFER the filed to a dataset.
Close the dataset.
chk a sampel
parameters: p_file like rlgrap-filename obligatory
default '/usr/sap/upload.xls'.
types: begin of t_data,
vbeln like vbap-vbeln,
posnr like vbap-posnr,
matnr like vbap-matnr,
werks like vbap-werks,
megne like vbap-zmeng,
end of t_data.
data: it_data type standard table of t_data,
wa_data type t_data.
open dataset p_file for output in text mode encoding default.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
write:/ 'Unable to open file:', p_file.
else.
do.
read dataset p_file into wa_data.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
exit.
else.
append wa_data to it_data.
endif.
enddo.
close dataset p_file.
endif.
And if you want to write on the file.
*--- open UNIX file
open dataset unixfile for output in text mode message w_msg.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
write: / 'Cannot open for writing:', unixfile, w_msg.
exit.
endif.
*--- write UNIX file
loop at it_file.
transfer it_file to unixfile.
endloop.
*--- close UNIX file
close dataset unixfile.

Regarding Application server file path browsing

Hi All,
I have a issue regarding Application Server File Path browsing.
Actually in my selection-screen i will declare a parameter as Application Server File Path now when i press F4 in that field it should be able to browse through Application Server Path's.
Just like F4_FILENAME in the case of Presentation Server File Path Browsing.
Can anybody solve my issue.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks & Regards,
Rayeez.

Hi Shaik,
Just copy and paste:
Here is the code for retrieving list of files contained within specific Application server directory(SAP).
PARAMETER: p_fdir type pfeflnamel DEFAULT '/usr/sap/tmp'.
data: begin of it_filedir occurs 10.
include structure salfldir.
data: end of it_filedir.
START-OF-SELECTION.
Get Current Directory Listing for OUT Dir
call function 'RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL'
exporting
name = p_fdir
tables
file_tbl = it_filedir.
List of files are contained within table it_filedir
loop at it_filedir.
write: / it_filedir-NAME.
endloop.
Hope this will help you.
Let me know incase of any concerns.
EDIT:
There are few FM for ur refernce :
RZL_READ_DIR_LOCAL
SUBST_GET_FILE_LIST Return table with file list for the given directory (pattern allowed)
F4_DXFILENAME_TOPRECURSION Popup to select one file from the given application server directory
TH_SERVER_LIST Returns list of application servers.
EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING Lists filenames from the application server .

Disregard my last. I see what you are doing. You are using file transfer to move the file to the local machine. It was confusing because the paths are the same.
I would suggest adding a SYNCHRONIZE after the file transfer and before the attempt to print. It might even be a good idea to add some error handling code to verify that the file has been copied and can be found. This will allow you to better deal with situations where the file doesn't get written for some reason. WebUtil offers some functions to check for file existence and size.
Also, if you are using Java 7U21, this may cause some issues with your CLIENT_HOST call.

How to check whether the Application Server file has already been opened?

Hi Experts,
I have a query related to Application Server file. I am using multithreading concept to process the data and write it in to a single file.
For example, I have 4 workprocesses. Each workprocess will process the data and whenever it has a record available it will access the file and write it directly.
Problem is the statements that are written in the workprocess is same and I want to check the status whether the file has been opened or not ?
Thanks in advance!!!
Thanks,
Babu Kilari

Depends on the structure, and whether the data needs to be sorted in some way in the final file.
In any case, I don't think there will be a significant performance difference between using OPEN DATASET again and getting funny with Unix commands.
If you don't need to sort the final file, you can use strings to read, concatenate and write the data even without line-based DO ENDDO loops, this works pretty fast.
I hope we are not talking about GBytes of data

Error while accessing the application server file

Hello,
When I try to load the data from CSV file to PSA , I am getting following error message
"Error while accessing the application server file"
"Errors in source system"
I gave the right file path
I am not sure about this error message.
Thanks,

Hi ram,
if you have more than one application server running in your BI system (see at transaction SM51) be aware that your infopackage will be executed on the right one. Each application server has its own file system and your job need to run on the server your file is stored on.
Also check if the os user of the SAP system itself (<sid>adm on Unix) has rights to read that file.
Bye
Frank

Application Server : File writes only 255 characters

Hi Friends,
I am trying to writes data to application server file .
My line size is 1100 charqacters.
When I use open dataset for output in text mode encoding default
and transfer contents to file.
I am only able to write contents upto 255 characters.
Whatever is beyond that I do not see it in AL11.
Is there a way to write more than 255 characters.
I tried CG3Y to view files but it also shows only 255 characters.
Please help.

Hi,
Just find the string length.
In 4.6C version there is a limit of 1500 characters i. e. U can transfer max of 1500 characters in a single transfer. For that we applied below solution. Check this it may help u.
l_len = strlen( p_data ).
DO.
    IF l_len LT 1500.
      TRANSFER p_data+l_offset(l_len) TO p_file.
      MOVE 0 TO l_len.
    ELSE.
      TRANSFER p_data+l_offset(1500) TO p_file.
      SUBTRACT 1500 FROM l_len.
      ADD 1500 TO l_offset.
    ENDIF.
    CHECK l_len EQ 0.
    EXIT.
ENDDO.
p_data has the content to be trasfered of around 6000 characters and the length is dynamic.
Also download the data using CG3Y with BIN to .txt file and see.
If problem is still there then paste ur code of OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER statements.
Try to open the file in TEXT MODE.
eg: OPEN DATASET l_file IN TEXT MODE.
Thanks,
Vinod.
