Hi All
I have a requirement to create target file which will have various record layout; meaning different record length (similar to cobol file format), but this is for the target. Please let me know what is the best practice and how to solution this requirment.
Thanks
Ash

Hi Shiva,
Thanks for your feedback. My issue is that I have 10 different detail records (each record type is fixed length).
For each customer account, I have to write to file the header record, the detail records in the exact order, then continue with next account and so on and then write the trailer record. I have given sample layout below. Highlighted text is the record identifier in this exmaple while the underlineds are account numbers. Fields are fixed length right padded with space or 0.

How to pass multiple records to target side using xquery

Hi Everybody,
I am using xquery transformation.
Input: Source payload contains 5 variables.
Target payload contains 5 variables.
I have input with payload with multiple instance like:
<Input>
<payload1>
<a>1<a>
<b>2<b>
<c>3<c>
<d>4<d>
<e>5<e>
</payload1>
<payload1>

But while importing this code to OSB,and tested it ,
With 1 payload it successfully shows the data in Target side,
But while testing with multiple line items,i am getting an error as follows.
*Error executing the XQuery transformation: line 14, column 17: {err}FORG0005: expected exactly one item, got 2+ items*
So please provide me the steps how to pass multiple records to target side using xquery.
Regards,
Jyoti Nayak

Hi Jyoti Nayak,
You have to do something like the example bellow, you can not just repeat the inner element, you will need an outer "container" tag. So you will have to change the target element of your xq transformation.
declare function xf:setToList($set1 as element(ns0:set))
as element(ns0:list) {
<ns0:list>
for $pair in $set1/ns0:pair
return
<ns0:entry>
<ns0:key>{ data($pair/ns0:key) }</ns0:key>
<ns0:value>{ data($pair/ns0:value) }</ns0:value>
</ns0:entry>
</ns0:list>
Cheers,
Vlad

How to create variables in payroll rules

Hi Experts,
Can you please let me know how to create variables in payroll rules and how to assign values to them.
Please share some documentation on this topic.
Thanks so much,
Uttama

Hi Vijay,
Variables can be created for -
Char Values
Texts
Formula elements
hierarchy and its nodes
For Characteristic Values -
These are used to be filled by user in the query selection screen
1.In the filter tab of QD, select the characteristic for which you want to create a variable,right click - >Restrict
2.Select variabes from drop down
3.Click Create new variable and then define its properties like "Processing By",Settings in Details tab etc and save it
4.Move it to the right side and click ok
Now you have created a variable and used it as a placeholder for that characteristic for which user can enter the value to act as dyanmic entry.

How to create Inbound Idoc from XML file-Need help urgently

Hi,
can any one tell how to create inbound Idoc from XML file.
we have xml file in application server Ex. /usr/INT/SMS/PAYTEXT.xml' we want to generate inbound idoc from this file.we are successfully able to generate outbound XML file from outbound Idoc by using the XML port. But not able to generate idoc from XML file by using we19 or we16.
Please let me know the process to trigger inbound Idoc with out using XI and any other components.
Thanks in advance
Dora Reddy

Hi .. Did either of you get a result on this?
My question is the same really .. I am testing with WE19 and it seems SAP cannot accept an XML inbound file as standard.
I see lots of mention of using a Function Module.
Am I correct in saying therefore that ABAP development is required to create a program to run the FM and process the idoc?
Or is there something tht can be done with Standard SAP?
Thanks

How to create variable in areport

Hi all ,
I am using fr_studio for creating reports.Can anyone tell me how to create variable in the report?

Hi,
There is nothing as such creating variable for navigation attribute. You can only create variable directly on particular infoobject.
In your case you are using transitivie attributes. So they can not be accesed directly in BEX query. You can only use 1st level nagivation attributes in bex query.

How to create Variables(User Input Selections) in WEBI Report

User Iputs(All are drop downs)

I have designed the basic layout of the Report but wanted to know how to design like this,Please help me out in this Format.
Thanks & Regards,
Somu

Hi, depending on the way you set this up (it is not entirely clear if you are talking bex variables or report drop down filters), use the following;
For BEX variables, the choice will be in the
UserResponse("prompt message")
this you can display in the message format you want.
For drop down filters the choice will be in the DrillFilters(), this one will show all selections in one string.
However, if you want to format this to a certain message, you need to use the Formula
DrillFilters([object from drill bar])
This will give you the result of just that one selection. If the user did not select (yet), the value will be "".
Hope this helps,
Marianne

How to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM.

how to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM. i need to know whether TIFF format is used and also the full steps.
Thanks,

Hi,
You can not directly use a logo from a file into a Smart form. First you will have to upload it to SAP. This has to be done only once. Once it is imported into SAP then you can use it in smart form. To import a logo to SAP, goto SE78. Open the tree under GRAPHICS. Select the file type and click on the Import (first button on the toolbar, just before delete button). Select the logo file and give it some appropriate name along with description. Select appropriate type of the image and click Continue. Your logo will be uploaded into SAP from a file. Now in your smartform, Create a Graphic Node, give the name of the logo along with other properties. In this way you can import a logo from a flat file into SAP and consequently in a smart form.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.

How to creat deadlock for the purchase order in SAP Workflow

Hi Ben,
Are you using FM "CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL" before passing delivery date? If not, use FM like this, before passing the date to BAPI_PO_CREATE1 and it might work
DATA: vf_doc_date(10),
             internal_date TYPE d.
     vf_doc_date = sy-datum.              "Document date.
     internal_date = vf_doc_date.
CALL FUNCTION 'CONVERT_DATE_TO_EXTERNAL'
    EXPORTING
      date_internal            = internal_date
    IMPORTING
      date_external            = vf_doc_date
    EXCEPTIONS
      date_internal_is_invalid = 1

I can´t edit the text files with SAP BODS 3.2

Hello
I can not edit some text files 9-20 megabytes to replace two words in each file, the source is a text file and the same destination but with different name, because with the same name have been unable . My idea is to remove the original and stay with the new performing edition but that if he does , let me file this way:
SALES_ORDERS_FULL_20140223_150051_006.xml ( ORIGINAL )
should leave it with me so : SALES_ORDERS_FULL_20140223_150051_006.xml _OLD (AMENDED )
but strangely leaves me so :
MICROSOFT_SQL_SERVER_KCC-BI_REPO_KHSA_XI_REPO_KHSA_XI_1543_5434_2_3_Long_INVOICES_INCREMENTAL_20140225_034004_001_xml_dat.txt (not deseased)
The type of data you use is long since varchar not allow me because it cuts my data file , use varchar (50000000) but takes the information and short .
I am using long data type , modify the file and I pass the name of the text files of sap bods for global variables. They are a series of files that are called by a while loop
Thanks for your answers
regards

HIr
Yes, first I convert long_to_varchar for edit, and convert varchar_to_long.
I edit before before and later
Thanks
