IDOC creation from flat file.

Hello Friends.
I need to create a custom program for posting goods receipts for a purchase order.
I think a custom program needed to achieve this task because i need to do mappings prior to create an IDOC. Now using a flat file what are the function modules or steps involved. can any one of you able to help me on this.
Thanks

Sorry, I'm trying to remember the name of the function module I used....I had a similar situation...I had a flat file which I processed and constructed an IDOC which I then saved as an incoming IDOC using the FM.... Because we had our settings (standard SAP process code, standard SAP FM IDOC processor, etc.) set to automatically fire off the IDOC processing, the result was that I read the file, saved the IDOC and SAP then immediately grabbed and posted the IDOC. I will do a little search for the FM I used to create the IDOC in my own system and get back to you if you think that would be helpful. Sorry for my memory lapse....

Idoc Structure From Flat FIle

Hi,
I have two queries.
1.I need to import idoc structure from excel file not from sap, is it possible ?
2 what are the detalied steps to implement following SAP note for getting processed file name at runtime.
Thanks & Regards
Tuhin
Symptom
You want to access the name of a file sent through a File Adapter Sender channel from a custom developed XI module.
Other terms
XI 3.0, XI30, File Adapter, Module Processor, Module Development, Modules
Reason and Prerequisites
The functionality described in this note requires SP 9 or higher of the component XI ADAPTER FRAMEWORK CORE 3.0.
Solution
The File Adapter passes the name of the processed file to the module processor. This information is available in a Hashtable object accessible as as supplemental module data under the name "module.parameters" within the module's 'process' method.
For further information, please take a look at the example code below:
public ModuleData process(ModuleContext mc, ModuleData md) throws
ModuleException
Hashtable mp = (Hashtable)
 md.getSupplementalData("module.parameters");
String fileName = null;
if (mp != null)
 fileName = (String) mp.get("FileName");

Hi Tuhin,

1. .I need to import idoc structure from excel file not from sap, is it possible ?
Yes and No; If the structure in the Excel sheet is defined in XSD format (XML schema) then it should be possible to import it assuming you are using XI 3.0. In 2.0 this is not possible.
Not sure if in XI 3.0 you are allowed to import Excel files straight forward into XI.
2 what are the detalied steps to implement following SAP note for getting processed file name at runtime.
I'm not quite sure but this looks to me like you have to implement this within a Java custom function/mapping...
The data (in this case the filename) is encapsulated in a Hashtable object available during runtime.
Cheers,
Rob.

Hi,
Can u try thsi logic.

ITAB_TEMP AS SAME STARUCTRE OF ITAB.
LOOP AT ITAB INTO WA_ITAB FROM INDEX 1.
IF WA_ITAB+0(2) EQ 'HD'.
L_CNT = L_CNT +1
ENDIF.
IF L_CNT EQ 2
hd ponumber customer number podate delivery date
it material1 materialtext quantity price plant
it material2 materialtext quantity price plant
it material3 materialtext quantity price plant
APPEND THIS DATA TO TEMP TABLE.
ELSEIF L_CNT EQ 3
WE WONT APPEND DATA TO TEMP TABLE.
PROCESS TEMP DATA TO IDOCS.

IDoc as a flat file...

I want to read a flat file that is an IDoc and post it as a XML after necessary conversion...So i wanted to know what are the feasible ways to read the flat file thats an IDoc?

Your flat file is of fixed lenght format or tab delimited I believe. Get the flat file data into an internal table. Study the IDOC structure in transaction WE30. & according populate the idoc segemnts from the internal table value..
For ABAP to XML conversion..Create XSLT & the extraction program..
Create XSLT:
In transaction SE80 browse menu Workbench -> Edit Object. In the popup window enter XSLT Program name (e.g. ZXSLT) and click on create button.
Enter the following code into the editor..
<xsl:transform version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" >
<!xsl:output encoding="utf-8" indent="yes"/>
<xsl:template match="D2CXML">
<PurchaseOrders>
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</PurchaseOrders>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="item">
<PONO>
<xsl:attribute name="no">
<xsl:value-of select="EBELN"/>
</xsl:attribute>
<PORDNO>
<xsl:apply-templates select="EBELN"/>
</PORDNO>
<Vendor>
<xsl:apply-templates select="LIFNR"/>
</Vendor>
<PurchaseOrg>
<xsl:apply-templates select="EKORG"/>
</PurchaseOrg>
<PurchaseGrp>
<xsl:apply-templates select="EKGRP"/>
</PurchaseGrp>
<xsl:apply-templates select="X-MLSTRUCT"/>
</PONO>
</xsl:template>
<xsl:template match="X-MLSTRUCT">
<xsl:apply-templates/>
</xsl:template>

How to upload the BP master details in huge amount from flat file to CRM database

Hi,
Could you any body please help me initially the best method to upload Business partner data from flat file and if possible with any sample code available?
Basically I am an ABAP consultant. In ERP I used to do BDC or lsmw in generally?
This is a mission critical thing for me.

Hi Chitturi,
I did not come across the scenario for custom include fields from BAPI of partner creation. But if the fields are not appearing in the import/tables structure fields then you probably need to update the corresponding DB Table for those fields separately,else BAPI will update the same. You will get partner guid and partner number from export parameters of the BAPI.

What are the advantages of idoc compare to flat file. how data is secure

what are the advantages of idoc compare to flat file. how data is secure in idocs compare to flat file

Hi Ramana,
In simple words, Main advantage with idoc over flat file is security....
I will explain you some scenario here U got a flat file with all the data...Now u r having the flat file if you want u can modify the data in it, or somehow any one can modify the data in it if they were able to access this file. That means u maintained the file in the presentation server
One level of higher security to the above level is maintaining the flat file in application server, at point also even though lot of people r not having the access to that file, super user who is having the access may modify the data or delete the data from it rite....
so in both of those levels u don't have 100% security...
So there come to the picture of idocs, Idocs simply data carriers, those r generated by a program but not manually...data will be divided into number of segments based upon ur program. So manually its not so easy to modify the data in these idocs. If any changes to be made in the data then u have to modify the data in the application and then u have to update the idoc or you have to generate the new idoc with that corresponding data. so in this case not even super user can manipulate the data directly in the idoc....
I think u got my point what I mean to say.....
If you find it useful mark the points

MBGMCR02 inbound posting from Flat file

hello Friends ,
i am posting MBMCR02 Inbound idoc for oil materils .
it is giving an error status 51 "Material does not exists or not active "
i am trying to post in WE 19 and through my program also .
it is an inbound idoc program processed from flat file .
i am trying to post the goods receipts against PO.
can any one suggest any solution.
thanks
Anant

1. Read the file using OPEN DATASET and read and fill up the segment info and fill the EDIDC header data
and then call function
CALL FUNCTION 'INBOUND_IDOC_PROCESS'
    TABLES
      IDOC_CONTROL       = i_edidc
      IDOC_DATA          = i_edid4.

Data loading from flat file into bw

Hi Experts,
When we load data from flat file into BW the sequence of fields in flat file should be matched with the transfer structure or communication structure?
wid thanX,
arijit

Arijit,
The sequence of fields in a flat file must be the same as this one in the transfer structure.
The comm and tran structures are the same after the first creation of datasource from flat file source system. After that someone could change the sequence in the CS -- if the mapping of fields in transfer rules remains unchanged, then the load is to be succesful.
In case of changing the sequence in TS you'll get either error or wrong load (values to be loaded into some infobjects will go to another ones.)
Best regards,
Eugene

Short dump while reading a currency field from Flat file into internal tabl

Hi,
I am getting a short dump........saying number conversion dump (while reading a currency value into field in internal table from a fixed lenght flat file).........
Do I need to use a string variable to get the value from flat file or how ??
Please suggest.

Santosh,
Thanks for your inputs,
But my internal table type is of DEC (5,2) , I am getting that... it needs to be of type 'C'. Can you suggest.
Ex :
MOVE wa_temp-infile_string+106(8) TO wa_item-QT_PERCENT
This didnt work
so i tried moving into a seperate variable
MOVE wa_temp-infile_string+106(8) TO v_percent.
and then write to
WRITE v_percent to wa_item-QT_PERCENT.

Error while loading table from flat file (.csv)

I have a flat file which i am loading into a Target Table in Oracle Warehouse Builder. It uses SQL Loader Internally to load the data from flat file, I am facing an issue. Please find the following error ( This is an extract from the error log generated)
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (D:\MY CURRENT PROJECTS\GEIP-IHSS-Santa Clara\CDI-OWB\Source_Systems\Acquisition.csv)
SQL*Loader-552: insufficient privilege to open file
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The data is invalid.
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
I believe that this is related to SQL * Loader error.
ACtually the flat file resides in my system ( D:\MY CURRENT PROJECTS\GEIP-IHSS-Santa Clara\CDI-OWB\Source_Systems\Acquisition.csv). I am connecting to a oracle server.
Please suggest
Is it required that i need to place the flat file in Oracle Server System ??
Regards,
Ashoka BL

Hi
I am getting an error as well which is similar to that described above except that I get
SQL*Loader-500: Unable to open file (/u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv)
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
SQL*Loader-509: System error: The system cannot find the file specified.
SQL*Loader-2026: the load was aborted because SQL Loader cannot continue.
The difference is that Ashoka was getting
SQL*Loader-552: insufficient privilege to open file
and I get
SQL*Loader-553: file not found
The initial thought is that the file does not exist in the directory specified or I have spelt the filename incorrectly it but this has been checked and double checked. The unix directory also has permission to read and write.
Also in the error message is
Control File: C:\u21\oracle\owb_staging\WHITEST\source_depot\INV_LOAD_LABEL_INVENTORY.ctl
Character Set WE8MSWIN1252 specified for all input.
Data File: /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv
Bad File: C:\u21\oracle\owb_staging\WHITEST\source_depot\Durham_Inventory_Labels.bad
As can be seen from the above it seems to be trying to create the ctl and bad file on my c drive instead of on the server in the same directory as the .csv file. The location is registered to the server directory /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITEST/source_depot
I am at a lost as this works fine in development and I have just promoted all the development work to a systest environment using OMBPlus.
The directory structure in development is the same as systest except that the data file is /u21/oracle/owb_staging/WHITED/source_depot/Durham_Inventory_Labels.csv and everything works fine - .ctl and .bad created in the same directory and the data sucessfully loads into a oracle table.
Have I missed a setting in OWB during the promotion to systest or is there something wrong in the way the repository in the systest database is setup?
The systest and development databases are on the same box.
Any help would be much appreciated
Thanks
Edwin
