Hierarchy to Flat Structure

Hi all..
I need to map a Hirarchial Struture to a Flat Structure ...in my souce node HDR can appear multiple times and below that one sub node STS also can appear multiple times ...
i need a flat targer stucture of source of same kind ..
what is the way to do that .. ? i tried doing it with Graphical mapping i am getting a worng output ...plz tell me what to be done ?...

Hierarchy as Flat Structure through BEx Web

Hello Gurus
I want to display a hierarchy as a flat table on the web.
I want to see KFs against lowest level nodes, the higher level nodes are included soley to give context.
So if my hierarchy is:
L1 = A
L2 = B
L3 = C
and my KFs are 1, 2, 3.
I want this:
A B C 1 2 3
Not this:
A 1 2 3
->B 1 2 3
-->C 1 2 3
How can I do this?
Thankyou friends.

Hi Dear,
I can give you an alternative...
Put
A
B
C in rows separately & not as hierarchy(don't use or activate hierachy..most probably your hierarchy was on C)
Now put KF1/2/3 in column
If A & B is not in your Infoprivider ,You can use navigational attribute feature in C to get A & B if A& B are coming purely as Master Data of C.
Now click on query properties & uncheck display repeated rows feature and you can see
A B C 123
with hierarchy you can't achieve it ever..
Regards,
RK

Conversion of hierarchy structure to flat structure

Hi Gurus,
I am mapping a multi node XML structure to flat structure to create the JDBC statements to Oracle database. I think JDBC DML statement can have only flat structure.
Now how to convert the incoming multi node xml file to several flat structures?
Can I map the multi node XML structure to jdbc structure?
Please help me this is critical.
Thanks
Kalyan

Chilla,
Thanks for the post. My source structure is as below. I have to map this one to flat structure for JDBC. For each customer_num, drop_point there are many customer brands. Now with the customer number and drop point, we have to create the flat structure for each customer brand.

Hi,
This is Thilak. For loading Data To hierarchy from flat file u should follow the below steps.
1. Create info objects as per ur hierarchy structure. i.e., ZH_CNO( for cno), ZH_SRGN (for region) .
2. find the highest node level info object. i.e., ZH_CNO.
3. go to that info object (highest node level info object) and select "with hierarchy" chk box.
4. click on " MAINTAIN HIERARCHY" button and move the external characteristics info objects to rt. side pannel.i.e., ZH_SRGN.
(Hint : other than first and last node level characteristics)
5. Activate the info object.
6. Create the info source (ZH_IS) of " DIrect Update Type".
7. Assign Hierarchy Data source( ZH_CNO_HIER) to that info source.
8. Schedule the info package to load the hierachy data from flat file.
Note: If u have any doubts regarding flat file format and hierarchy structure plz call to +91 9600015640 or mail to thilak.oggn@gmail. bcz i am unable to draw that hier strtr ana table.

SUPPRESS

<ActualValue>
SUPPRESS
SUPPRESS
<ACTUAL VALUE>
I am expecting only 2 context changes with the actual Values... (if the second record does not have a value an empty value is expected)
Can Some help me in solving these Values... Some How i need to remove the SUPPRESS/false Values
Note: The Contects for the Source Elements are not changed

Hi aalla
Try setting property keepss of ifWithoutElse block to false.

Problem Mapping Deep Structure to Flat Structure

Hello,
I hope someone can help me. My scenario is idoc to file. I am collecting many idocs with a bpm and writing them out to one file. My bpm is working great, but my mapping program is not working properly. My source message is a deep structure and my target message is a flat structure.
See my example message formats below.
Source message:
zmessage (1..1)

Target Message:
zmessage (1..1)

I need to map zidocheader to zfileheader and zidocitem to zfileitem.
The Source Data:

Can someone advise me on how to map this correctly?
Thank you,
Rhonda

Hello,
Can someone please help me with this problem?
I am at the point where all of the records in my source message are being written out, however, all of the header records are together and all of the line item records are together. So, the target message is not in the proper sequence. It should contain the header record, then item records, header record, then item records, etc.
Is there anyone that can help me with this issue?
Thank you,
Rhonda

Mapping Query: Flat Structure to Hierarchical Structure.

I have a scenario which uses the sender file adapter. Therefore my source message has a flat structure. The requirement is that the target message will have a hierarchical structure as shown below.
Source Message Type
MT_Acc_Out    1..1
fileHeader   1..1
docHeader    1..unbounded
docItem      1..unbounded
fileTrailer 1..1
Target Message Type
MT_Acc_In     1..1
batchHeader 1..1
docHeader    1..unbounded
docItem     1..unbounded
fileTrailer 1..1
The source structures docHeader and docItem both contain a field called seqNo which is used to link the items to the header.
The requirement is that in the target message the docItems are children of the corresponding docHeader.
I am having difficulty mapping the target docItem node. Does this require a user defined function or can it be achieved using standard functions?
Any assistance would be appreciated.

You can use standard or user-defined functions, see this link:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/59/f6ae42e0fac911e10000000a1550b0/frameset.htm
see the part of flat structure_2_nested tables part.

Move a flat structure into a large character field.

I have a flat structure that has a total length of 700, and a table of type c(700).
I would like to move my structure into a work area of the table and then append it. I do not want to condense the fields, or add separators.
I could write function to go through each element and write them one at a time, but I'm hoping that this is an existing function in a utility somewhere. I've been looking but have not found one as of yet.
Thanks.
+===============================================+
Update: Found one:
CALL METHOD CL_ABAP_CONTAINER_UTILITIES=>FILL_CONTAINER_C

Not sure if such function module exists or not..
In 3.1H Version or even in 4.6C version, this could have been a simple issues...
we used to do a assignment directly to the structure...
Structure = Char String.
This used to assign the values of the Char string to the Structure fields by taking into consideration the length of the structure fields.. But from 4.7 onwards, we cannot use such assign statements directly (if field has other than char fields).. hope this helps you

Error generating test frame - smartform -flat structure

When i run the smartform,its giving an error message saying "Error generating test frame".When i run through driver program it gives dump saying "zmbook must be flat structure".
Now the problem is in smartform -> form interface -> tables it_test like zmbook
its saying zmbook must be flat structure.
here zmbook is transparent table.but says use flat structure.
i tried it through structure also but says use flat structure.
i tried it through table type of tructure also but says use flat structure.
can anyone help me out
regards sajid

Hi shaik,
Create the table type for zmbook in se11 and include this table type in the form interface.
Goto se11 : datatype-->yy_book
select table type
In the line type : Zmbook.
Goto smartforms and in the form interface include this yy_book.

Declare flat structure as a internal table

hi,
i wrote the following code to declare structure as a internal table ....
TYPES: BEGIN OF internalltdoclinks.
include structure CRMT_DOC_FLOW_DB_WRKT.
types: END OF internalltdoclinks.
DATA: it_table TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF internalltdoclinks,
wa_bkpf TYPE internalltdoclinks.
it give me error as CRMT_DOC_FLOW_DB_WRKT
"CRMT_DOC_FLOW_DB_WRKT" must be a flat structure. You cannot use internal tables,strings ,references ,or structure as a component.
THANKS.

Hi,
You can declare as below if you want to declare a internal table
DATA: LT_DATA TYPE TABLE OF CRMT_DOC_FLOW_DB_WRKT.
So that there would be any error.

Flat structure,deep structure, and info structure

hi,
What is meant by flat ,deep ,info structures what is difference among them?

Flat structure:
If you have a structure with list of fields on it and You can have a structure with in the structure included
Deep structure:
If you have tabletype(internal table) included in the
structure
Flat structures contain only elementary data types with a fixed length (no internal tables, reference types, or strings).
The term deep structure can apply regardless of whether the structure is nested or not
The technical difference between deep structures and all others is as follows.
When you create a deep structure, the system creates a pointer in memory that points to the real field contents or other administrative information.
When you create a flat data type, the actual field contents are stored with the type in memory. Since the field contents are not stored with the field descriptions in the case of deep structures, assignments, offset and length specifications and other operations are handled differently from flat structures

How to Create Hierarchy From Flat file Structure

Hi Gurus,
There is a scenario for me regarding the Hierarchy.
Required Hierarchy structure - Region>Director>Manager-->Sales id
I have flat file which gives the info like user id , sales id , manager id, director id.
But the transaction data Flat file has structure with sales id, region id, sales amt, sales qty.
Note : Region id is another Master Data.
How i can create hierarchy from the first flat file which doesnot have region info in that but it is available in the transaction data Flat file.
Is there anyway we can create hierarchy based on the first Flat file structure which contains more that 1,00,000 records.
Try to Suggest me in this regard .
This is urgent.
Regards,
Mano

Hi Mano,
                Defining the source system from which to load data
Choose the source system tree File ® Create.
       2.      Defining the InfoSource for which you want to load data
Optional: choose InfoSource Tree ® Root (InfoSources) ® Create Application Components.
Choose InfoSource Tree ® Your Application Component ® Other Functions ® Create InfoSource 3.x ® Direct Update.
Choose an InfoObject from the proposal list, and specify a name and a description.
       3.      Assigning the source system to the InfoSource
Choose InfoSource Tree ® Your Application Component ® Your InfoSource ® Assign Source System. The transfer structure maintenance screen appears.
The system automatically generates DataSources for the three different data types to which you can load data.
○       Attributes
○       Texts
○       Hierarchies (if the InfoObject has access to hierarchies)
The system automatically generates the transfer structure, the transfer rules, and the communication structure (for attributes and texts).
       4.      Maintaining the transfer structure / transfer rules
Select the DataSource for uploading hierarchies.
IDoc transfer method: The system automatically generates a proposal for the DataSource and the transfer structure. This consists of an entry for the InfoObject for which hierarchies are loaded. With this transfer method, the structure is converted to the structure of the PSA during loading, which affects performance.
PSA transfer method: The transfer methods and the communication structure are also generated here.
       5.      Maintaining the hierarchy
Choose Hierarchy Maintenance, and specify a technical name and a description of the hierarchy
Hope this helps

Karthik
