LSMW Direct Input error

Hi gurus,
Help me out. When I reach the 'specify files' step of the LSMW, I encounter an error saying No logical path has been specified. This keeps popping out eventhough I have inputted the file's path. What's the problem?
Tnx in advance

Hi Obie,
In the "Specify files" step, you see following 3 nodes: Legacy Data, Read Data & Concerted data.
Double click on Converted data where you get a popup & you need to mention the logical path & Logical file name. Normally LSMW will be the logical path & specify the same path as presentation server path / File.
If you do not have a logical path - LSMW, create one with T. Code FILE.
Please check this also.

Hope it will work for you.

have Lost Previous File
what does that mean? did they lose the source that should be used to load the data from?
without source you cannot load data.
Had you ever got this source file? how? by mail, then check your old mails and take it from there, ask the sender to he/she checks the SENT folder in his mail system. Maybe someone has a local copy of this fille.

Net Price Calculation Error in LSMW(Direct Input)

Hi,
i am using LSMW-Direct Input method for Creating Purchase Order .i am facing Problem like Quantity Conversion error in Net Price Calculation.
Any one please help me out.
Regards,
Shobha Henry

Best practice would be to use BAPI/ALE method instead of direct input but if you've already done with the mapping etc. try putting a break point in the generated LSMW program where the net price is calculated and transferred to SAP field and then run it to see in the debugger what's going on. I reckon its possibly a type compatibility error.
Hope this helps,
Cheers,

LSMW direct input method - Equipment BOM

Hi Experts,
We have already written program for equipment BOM master in LSMW direct input method. I do not know about this direct input method.
Here they have maintained 2 source structures and relavant source fields. one for BOM header and other for BOM items. The first field they maintained is LINK in both the source fields. I really do not know what that field is all about. I checked in step specify files and found that they have previously mentioned two files, one for BOM header and other for BOM items. but when I tried to save in this step it gives me error that " No logical path specified". Can anybody tell me what is this error is all about.Please heip me to get out of this problem.
Thanks and best regards,
Praveen

Hi praveen,
LSMW does not accept two files.
In the step create source strcture
crte one structure with BOM header like with ZBOM_H.
Under that create another structure for item ZBOM_I.
ZBOM_H
ZBOM_I like this structure will will be.
In the step source fields.
crate onne variable with indicatoe header.While creating the variable we have field 'identify field content ' field in pop up screen 'H'.
assign all header files under identifier 'H'.
then under ZBOM_I create identifier with 'I'.
Assign all the item fields to this.
then map the fields.
In the file should be H header fields.
                              I item fields.
                              I
                              I.
Then Header .It should be like this.
in saptechnical u will get the examples go though them once.
Thanks

LSMW Direct Input Method - Change Documents

Hello experts,
Could anyone please tell me how to enable the change documents(not just runtime) for LSMW direct Input method? There is also one option "Change Documents" in the last step of the process, will this write into any table that I see the changes later If I run the last step with selected this option? If yes, What are the application (customer master data, vendor master data, material master data, etc) specific tables?
Is there anyway that I could populate this method changes into the CDHDR & CHPOS tables?
SAP documenation on this:
To enter the data into the *corresponding database tables directly*, the system calls a number of function modules that execute any necessary checks. In case of errors, the direct input technique provides a restart mechanism
http://help.sap.com/erp2005_ehp_04/helpdata/EN/fa/097174543b11d1898e0000e8322d00/content.htm
Since this tool writing data into database tables directly skips the CDHDR & CDPOS recording..
Is there any other possible way for the complete change logs (change pointers???)? ( Or only table logging?)
Please share your experience on this.
Thanks,
Himadama

LSMW - Direct Input Method - AS91 - RAALTD11

Hi All,
I am trying to master data upload of assets into SAP. I am doing it using LSMW - Direct Input method.
I am getting a lot of errors:
- No valid cost center was entered --- Whereas the cost center entered is valid.
- Unexpected record type: B --- whereas I have not specified any record type.
- Company code 0315 already contains assets in the number range T4 --- Whereas I have run the LSMW only for company code 0312 and with just a single record.
- And many more such errors.
Please advise if I am doing something wrong.
Also I want to know to which field shall I pass the Cumm Acquis Val and the Net Book Value.
I want to know the corresponding fields in the BALTD and BALTB structures for these fields.
My flat file contains the below fields:
- ANLKL    Asset Class
- BUKRS   Company Code
- TXT50     Description
- AKTIV    Capitalized On
- KOSTL   Cost Center
- ORD42    Allowed Capital Allowances?
- EAUFN   Investment Order
- NDJAR   Planned Useful Life in Years
- NDPER Planned Useful Life in Periods (months)
- NDABJ   Expired Useful Life in Years
- NDABP Expired Useful Life in Periods (months)
- ??    Cumm Acquis Value
- ??    Net Book Value
I don't know how to map the last two fields. Although I could find another field ANBTR01 in BALTB structure. But then which field tomap to this structure and to which field shall I map the remaining one.
Please advise.
Thanks & Regards,
Namrata

Hi All,
I have now removed the BALTB structure and am filling only teh BALTD structure. I am not getting any errors and the asset is getting created.
But when I go and check for the asset in AS93 / AS92, the depr areas (planned and expired life in years and planned and expired life in periods) are not getting populated in SAP. Also in the Takeover Values tab, ***.acquis.val and the Net book value fields are not getting populated.
Below is the mapping of all the fields:
BALTD-MANDT = 600 (GETTING POPULATED ITSELF)
BALTD-BUKRS = SOURCE-BUKRS
BALTD-ANLKL = SOURCE-ANLKL
BALTD-TCODE = AS91 (HARDCODING IN LSMW)
BALTD-RCTYP = A (GETTINGPOPULATED ITSELF)
BALTD-AKTIV = SOURCE-AKTIV
BALTD-ORD42 = SOURCE-ORD42 (ALWD)
BALTD-EAUFN = SOURCE-EAUFN
BALTD-TXT50 = SOURCE-TXT50
BALTD-KOSTL = SOURCE-KOSTL
Below are the dep areas fields values and the takeover values.
BALTD-NDJAR01 = SOURCE-NDJAR01 (PLANNED LIFE IN YEARS)
BALTD-NDPER01 = SOURCE-NDPER01 (PLANNED LIFE IN PERIODS)
BALTD-NDABJ01 = SOURCE-NDABJ01 (EXPIRED LIFE IN YEARS)
BALTD-NDABP01 = SOURCE-NDABP01 (EXPIRED LIFE IN PERIODS)
BALTD-KANSW01 = SOURCE-KANSW01 (CM.ACQUIS.VALUE - IN TAKEOVER VALUES TAB)
BALTD-KANSW02 = NET BOOK VALUE IN TAKEOVER VALUES TAB.
BALTD-WRTMA = SOURCE-WRTMA (SUGGESTED BY SOMEONE ON SDN FOR NET BOOK VALUE)
None of the above dep areas and takeover values fields (fields in bold) are getting populated in SAP.
Please help and advise how to proceed with this.

Namrata

During file assignment when it asks for logical path and logical file for ".conv" file to be saved on the server(Double click on .conv file name). Just enter a path name and file name ( eg: ZPATH and ZFILE) and hit enter if the path doesn't exist it will create one, same with logical file name.

Reg:lsmw(direct input)

hi friends,
i need your help in lsmw direct input method.
my problem in my flat file one header and multiple header lines.
how to handle in direct input method.

Hi,
At "Maintain Source Structures" you need to define two structures. One for header and one for item.
HEADER_STRUCTURE
|___
       ITEM_STRUCTURE
At "Maintain Source Fields" you need to define one field as identifier at first field of the structure. Double click at the field and fill "Identifying Field Content".
Then the source file could be specified as below.
H     100965
I     1     Test 1
I     2     Test 2
I     3     Test 3
I     4     Test 4
H is the identifying field content for header and I for item.
Regards,
Teddy

Material Master upload - LSMW direct input method - Internal Number problem

Dear friends,
I am uploading material masters with LSMW - Direct Input Method.
The materials have internal numbers.
I have four plants and I want to extend the same material in all plants.
But LSMW is creating a new material for each row.
Is there any way out or any indication I put in file to repeat the internal numbers created for all other plants?
I can create another LSMW for material extension. But I want to know whether the problem can be solved in the current LSMW?
Regards,
Avinash

Check the internal number range once.... before extending mateial...
