How to download data to the presentation server in background?

Hi,
I would like to download data to the presentation server in background.
Currently, the report uses FM GUI_DOWNLOAD to download in foreground.
However, this FM does not work in the background.
But please let me know how to download to the presentation server in background.
Thanks and regards,
Anishur

How to schedule a program for download a file to Presentation Server

hi all,
I need to schedule a program which will download a file to presentation server. How can i handle this or is there any other to download a file during scheduling?
Points will be rewarded
Thanks in advance

Hi Jayasree,
You can download your file to application server in background scheduling.
In your program use OPEN DATASET command for achieving this.
How ever, as far as i know, it is not possible to download the file to presentation server in background job.

Problem with downloading the internal table onto the presentation server.

Hey folks,
I have a problem where in i am downloading one year of sales done by the company. I wrote a program to download the file onto the presentation server . The error occurs in the FM GUI_DOWNLOAD where if the file exceeds 105843504 bytes its giving me a dump saying that
When the program was running , it was established that more memory was needed than the operating system is able to safely to provide.
The current program has to be terminted because of the program already requested 105843504 bytes from the operating system with malloc when the operating system reported after further memory request that there was no more memory space available.
Could somebody provide an alternative soltuion for this.
Its really urgent as i can download the file with 70,000,000 bytes
Regards
Rock

Hi Rock,
Please download the files on to Application Server, else as suggested by Ashish download into 2 or 3 files and merge them manually.
Declare same internal tables may be 5 times.
When you fill the internal table check for a counter and when you hit a certain number stop appending to it and start appending to the next.
After you are done so download all the internal tables.
I guess this would be a good way. I am not sure if there are any ther alternative good methods.
Hope this helps.

How to process data in the past based from data in the present

hello guys,
i have a problem in my labview programs. how to process data in the past based from data in the present ?
i have a formula self-organizing maps
this formula is looking for D1, D1 is neuron index that will be searched for the smallest value.and the result are D1=2 ,D2=5, D3=17 from calculating with formula .it means the smallest value is 2, "2" from weight [2 2] in file attached.
and then it will be in other formula
it mean [2 2] + 0.5 ( [1 1]-[2 2] ) = [1.5 1.5]
and the weight will be [1.5 2 2 ] in matrix
1.5 3 5
I would appreciate any input/help on solving this
thanks

Hi Ronny Hanks,
Moving your records from internal table into the database table depends upon various scenarios :-
1. If you use INSERT statement.
INSERT <database_table> FROM TABLE <internal_table>.
But in this case, you need to make sure that you don't have any duplicate entries in your internal table that violates data entry into database table, else you will get a dump.
INSERT <database_table> FROM TABLE <internal_table> ACCEPTING DUPLICATE KEYS.
In this case, you are forcefully inserting duplicate records into your database table which may lead to data redundancy in your database table.
2. If you use UPDATE statement.
UPDATE <database_table> FROM TABLE <internal_table>.
This will update the existing records in your database table from the internal table.
3. If you use MODIFY statement.
MODIFY <database_table> FROM TABLE <internal_table>.
This statement works both in combination of INSERT & UPDATE statements.
Existing records (in database table) will be eventually updated/modified and new records (not in database table currently) will be successfully inserted into the database table.
Hope this solves your problem.
Thanks & Regards.

"Bad data format" when reading txt file from the presentation server

Hello,
I have a piece of code which reads a txt file from the presentation server to an internal table like below:
DATA : lv_filename type string.
lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\
CALL method CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>GUI_UPLOAD
EXPORTING
   FILENAME              = lv_filename
CHANGING
   DATA_TAB            = lt_tsd. " lt_tab has the exact same fields as the Test.txt's. Test.txt has only one line, tab delimited.
When running this code, exception BAD_DATA_FORMAT is issued.
Is it because of the file encoding or delimiter or other reason?
Thanks,
Yang

Hello,
If its tab delimited then use the has_field_seperator parameter and check
DATA : lv_filename type string.
lv_filename = 'C:\abap\Test.txt'. "I created a folder called abap under C:\

Downloading a file on presentation server

Dear All,
I have a requirement where in I need to run a custom report in the background (since it gives a short dump for max permitted time when run in foreground). However, I need to download a file with report output on the presentation server (user's desktop). Can you please help me know how can I download a file on user's desktop by running the report in background?
Thanks & Regards
Sujay

Hi Suraj,
I had also researched a lot for this requirement for my project. This requirement, to download the file to a local system by running a job cannot be done.
But there is a work around for this requirement, you can write a program to download the data to a "AL11" active directory in your the server( using an open dataset ). This program can be executed in background too, since we are writing the file to the server directory. If its a normal .txt file, you can ask the user to check it in AL11 or you can ask the basis team to copy that file from the active directory and send it to the user.
I think this will help you a little bit.

For saving the report you can goto System -> List -> Save -> Local File -> Location where you want to save in your presentation server.
You can also give a option in your selection screen to save the file to Presentation server using FM GUI_DOWNLOAD.
Hope it helps.

File download to presentation server in BACKGROUND

Hello,
i'm trying to download a simple list to the presentation server, but in a background process (part of an update rule for an infopackage). I´ve tried WS_Download and CALL METHOD o->gui_download etc but the job cancels with them since they seem only to run in frontend. Does anyone know of a more suitable function module?
Thanks,

Prevent Editing the Presentation Server Administrators Group

In OBIEE 10.1.3.4, I have created a Catalog Group "Second Tier Administrators" and grant it access to "Settings -> Administration -> Manage Presentation Catalog Groups and Users". How can I prevent the users in the "Second Tier Administrators" group from adding themselves to the "Presentation Server Administrators" group?

Hi Evaldo,
I don't see a way of you being able to edit one line without reading the entire file into memory. You could hold the data you are writing to the file in a custom table in SAP, and when an edit is required, delete the old table and recreate a new one based on your custom table.
Best of luck.
