Issue with reading XLSX with multiple sheets file in application Server

Hi,
We're currently implementing SAP CRM 7.40.
In one requirement we have to process an XLSX file and load its information to a set of Z tables.
The file has 6 sheets of data to process, each sheet with distinct number of columns and types (each sheet will be upload to a different Z table).
We're able to process the XLSX using the Desktop Office integration for local files.
However, we must also be able to process files on the application server.
We tried the following approaches without success
- The DOI library doesn't seem to support remote files processing:
- OPEN DATASET. with the dataset we're able to read a remote file, however since the file format is XLSX, the information we read in the dataset comes in an unreadable format
- FTP. we tried to use FTP to download the remote file to a local folder so that we could then use the DOI library to process the file. However, the client only allows SFTP connections and SAPFTP doesn't provide SFTP
There's another approache we're considering to try which is to have a perl script on the application server to split the Excel file into CSV files (one for each tab) and then use OPEN DATASET to read the contents of each file and work from there. This approach seems quite cumbersom
The approach with DOI would be the best one but either we're missing a key configuration or it truly can't be used for files. Are there any special requirements that we should take into account for this option?
We'd like to know if you have any other approach that proves successfull or if any of the above can work but with some aditional adjustments.
Thanks in advance.
Best regards.

Is there any way to upload Tariff Code (with multiple XML files) from application server?

Hi All,
Is there any way to upload Tariff Code (with multiple XML files) from application server?. Its urgent.
Regards,
Jatin

Hi Jatin,
Yes, of course you can upload multiple files for tariff codes.
This can be done by the below path:-
SAP GTS Cockpit(tcode-/sapsll/menu_legal)-->Customs Management-->Classification-->Classification Master Data-->Upload Tariff Code Numbers from XML file(tocde- /SAPSLL/LLNS_UPL101).
In the above area after browsing and choosing the first file, please select multiple check box to choose more files as well. Then you can further select your application server and upload all those files in one go.
PS:- Although, we have an option to upload multiple such files but actually we should avoid multiple file uploads due to various reasons. Hence, please take utmost care during such procedure.

Aman

Error Message while executing
What happened?
 At the conversion of a text from codepage '4110' to codepage '4102':
 - a character was found that cannot be displayed in one of the two
 codepages;
 - or it was detected that this conversion is not supported
 The running ABAP program 'ZHDI_LOMM_VEHI_MAT_MASS_CREATE' had to be terminated
 as the conversion
 would have produced incorrect data.
 The number of characters that could not be displayed (and therefore not
 be converted), is 449. If this number is 0, the second error case, as
 mentioned above, has occurred.
Error analysis
 An exception occurred that is explained in detail below.
 The exception, which is assigned to class 'CX_SY_CONVERSION_CODEPAGE', was not
 caught in
 procedure "F_DATA_UPLOAD" "(FORM)", nor was it propagated by a RAISING clause.
 Since the caller of the procedure could not have anticipated that the
 exception would occur, the current program is terminated.
 The reason for the exception is:
 Characters are always displayed in only a certain codepage. Many
 codepages only define a limited set of characters. If a text from a
 codepage should be converted into another codepage, and if this text
 contains characters that are not defined in one of the two codepages, a
 conversion error occurs.
 Moreover, a conversion error can occur if one of the needed codepages
 '4110' or '4102' is not known to the system.
 If the conversion error occurred at read or write of screen, the file
 name was '/usr/sap/interfaces/conversion/pioneer/ddm/data/test_data1.xls'.

Problem with saving data in text file in Application server

Hello Experts,
I am trying to save a text file in application server.When I text file have less that 60000 (i.e 59999) records, it saves the file successfully, but if records in text file (saved in application server) is more than 60000 (i.e 60002), it creates a new file at the 60000th record with the continued records.
Can anyone please advise, why it is creating a new file if records are more that 60000. I tested it with 59000 records in my internal table and it is working fine. I have not given any restriction in my program to create a new file if records are more than 60000.

InfoSpoke fails with message "Could not open file on application server"

BW Experts,
I created an InfoSpoke that is configured to extract to a flat file. The name of the file is specified using a logical filename. During extraction, the infospoke reports the error message "Could not open file on application server" adnd marks the extraction process as red(failed). I have tried to run the InfoSpoke in background mode and in dialog mode and the same error appears. After i run in dialog mode, i checked SU53 for authorization errors and did not find any. I also tried changing the Logical filename setup in transaction FILE to a more "friendly" directory in which i'm sure i have authorizations (e.g. my UNIX home directory) and im still getting errors.
Can you please share your thoughts on this? Any help will greatly appreciated. I also promise to award points.

Hi Nagesh,
Thanks for helping out.
If i configure the InfoSpoke to download to a file using "File Name" option and also check the "Application server" checkbox, the extract works correctly (extraction to the defualt SAP path and filename=infospoke name). If i configure the InfoSpoke to download to the local workstation, the InfoSpoke also works correctly. It's only when i configure it to download to the application server and use the "Logical filename" option, that i encounter a failed extract.
Here are the messages is the Open Hub Monitor:
(red icon) Request No.147515
0 Data Records
Runtime 1 sec.
(red icon)Run No. 1
0 Data Records
Runtime 1 sec.

Could not open file on application server RSBO 214
Request 147515 was terminated before extraction RSBO 326

If i clink on the error message, no messages nor clues are displayed. Note, this is a new InfoSpoke that is currently in the dev system.
Please help.

Fetching of multiple files from Application Server into SAP Program

Hi All,
I have a issue related Fetching of multiple files from Application Server into SAP Program.
Actual issue is as below.
In the selection screen of my program i will give Application Server Path as :
/PW/DATA/SAP/D1S/PP/DOWN/eppi0720*
Then the based on above input it should pick up all the files that are matching eppi0720* criteria.
Suppose if i am having 5 files with above scenario, i have to fetch all those 5 files at a time and place in my SAP Program.
All those 5 file's data should come into SAP at a time.
Can anybody tell me how can we solve above issue.
If any body has come across same issue please provide me with solution.
Thanks in advance.

And this is split by tab delimited and moved to other variables as shown above.
Please guide me how to read the contents without "#' from the file.
I have tried all possible ways and unable to get solution.
Thanks,

Hi ,
In ECC 6 if all the unicode patches are applied then UTF 16 will defintly work..
More over i would suggest you to ist replace # with some other * or , and then try to see in debugging if any further # appears..
and no # appears then try to split now.
if even now the # appears after replace statement then try to find out what exactly is it... wheather it is a horizantal tab etc....
and then again try to replace it and then split..
Please follow the process untill all the # are replaced...
This should work for you..
Let me know if you further face any issue...

Read PDF Formatted Spool and write PDF File to Application Server

Hi Experts,
After ECC 6.0, HR-W2 and W2C Form Spools are getting generated in PDF format.
We have a requirement wherein we want to read the PDF Spool Programatically and write the PDF file to Application server (Using OPEN DATASET and CLOSE DATASET)
PARAMETERS : p_spono LIKE tsp01-rqident.
DATA: pdf_data type FPCONTENT.
types: lt_pdf_table(1000) type x.
data: l_pdf_data type standard table of lt_pdf_table,
 l_pdf_line type lt_pdf_table,
 l_offset type i,
 l_len type i,
 p_file(100) VALUE '\sapout\DVH\pdf2.pdf'.
*Read the spool content
CALL FUNCTION 'FPCOMP_CREATE_PDF_FROM_SPOOL'

 i_spoolid = p_spono
 i_partnum = '1'
 IMPORTING
 e_pdf = pdf_data
* e_pdf_file = file
 EXCEPTIONS

 OTHERS = 5.
* Modify the spool contents to prepare internal table
l_len = xstrlen( pdf_data ).
while l_len >= 1000.
 l_pdf_line = pdf_data+l_offset(1000).
 append l_pdf_line to l_pdf_data.
 add 1000 to l_offset.
 subtract 1000 from l_len.
endwhile.
if l_len > 0.
 l_pdf_line = pdf_data+l_offset(l_len).
 append l_pdf_line to l_pdf_data.
endif.
* GUI DOWNLOAD Works Fine
* Now pdf contents is ready , lets store in local PC
*CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'
* EXPORTING
* filename = 'C:\Documents and Settings\Desktop\shital.pdf'
* filetype = 'BIN'
* TABLES
* data_tab = l_pdf_data.

Currently as you can see I have commented out GUI_DOWNLOAD Function Module, But it works perfect when I try to Download file to Local Desktop.
But when I try to pass the same Contents to Application server file and then try to open it by downloading file then it opens BLANK pdf file.
As per requirements I should be able to write the file correctly on Application server and If I dowload it from there it should open PDF file correctly.
Let me know if you require further details about the issue.

Shital

Error in Reading the file from Application Server

Hi,
This Error is regarding one of my interface, the issue is that , the interface reads data from file in bunch suppose 100 records at a time , then processes those records and once finished go for next 100 records .
Noe the error is that , the process takes place till 500 records correctly but when it went to fetch for next 100 i.e fom 501 to 600 it selects only 501 to 583 .
this records has been processed successfully but the job finished there only
but the file contains 788 records
When the same file has been run in other server it ran successfully without such error .
Can you please suggest how to resolve the issue

Hi,
Try to manually download the file from application server using standard transactions, and than check how many records are you able to download from app. server.
I guess there might be something wrong with the format of 583rd record, which makes sap assume that the file has come to an end.
Hope this will help you.

FM to read XML files from Application server in ECC5.0

Hi All,
We need to pick up an XML file from Application server/FTP server. The requirement is to parse the XML file and process it to create material master. SAP provides standard function modules to read XML files.
Now we need to read the XML file contents of MM01 and upload into SAP Data Base through BAPI
I need to know about the Function modules to read XML files from Application Server and also about the FM's that will update the Date base tables with the data obtained form XML files.
Regards
Prathima
