LSMW - Specify Files - erro message
Hi,
Getting the erro message "No logical path specified" when specify files.
how to solute it.thank you.
regards.
sophia
in step 7 where u specify file, drop down imported data folder and give any file name like "test.lsmw.read" .
also specify a file name for converted data "test.lsmw.conv"
the system will automatically generate files on application server..
dont use " " with file name..and remember to use correct extension i.e. .lsmw.read & .lsmw.conv
plz reward points if dis helps

LSMW -Specify files -No logical path specified
HI,
While i specify a file in lsmw in specify files from pc front end in legacy data and i try to save. It says " no logical path specified " in the message bar.
kindly help me in this issue.
i am unable to go further as I cant specify files.
Thank in advanceHi Srivasta
You just put any, not used logical file name in your file definition step. LSMW will create this logical file byself und will use when is needed, but you just forget about it in future. Don't forget to recreate this file, when you move your LSMW to test and production systems, it is not created automaticaly there.
The way you enter logical path and logical name is,
Within the LSMW option 'Specify Files', Double click on
'Converted Data' and a popup box will allow you enter
file name , logical path and logical file.
cheers

In lsmw im not able to get any our put in the step read data it is showing me error not able to read file.
i check with the files in apllication server as well as the path i specified in lsmw .they both are same with out any case sensitive.
step specify files:
so now import data
and convert data are there in the same step.
now when i specify the import data ,it is throwing me an information message this file has already been assign to another object.
it is showing the same for convert data as well
so now my question is due to this i may not be able to read the data or what ?
thanks in advance

reward points given .Hi this can happen because of 2 reasons
1) If you are using 2 structures ( Header and Item ) then their are some fields which should be in both structures . And those field should have same value
You can check this in step ( Generate read programme ) . At this step there is statement like
loop at HEADER_ITEM_DATA
where OLD_SERVTICKET_NUM =
HEADER_DATA-OLD_SERVTICKET_NUM
in the above example OLD_SERVTICKET_NUM is a field which both structures should have same value
2) Second reason can be that number of fields in your flat file might not be same in your structures fields which you have defined in 3rd step
Plz check

Hi,
In the LSMW steps, when I am using SPecify Files , I want to set values of 'File Content' , 'Delimiter', 'File Structure',
'File Type','Code Page' along with the Path and Name of a excel file. Can you tell me what will be these values when the
file is an EXCEL file.
Useful answer will be rewarded.
Regards,
Tanmayhi Tanmay,
for uploading data from excel sheet you have to save your excel file in ".csv" format. i.e. "csv-comma delimited" or "text with tab delimited".
FIRST SAVE YOUR EXCEL SHEET WITH ",csv" format
In the step SPECIFY FILES->SELECT LEGACY DATA ON pC->select create button on toll bar->specify path->give name
here only u can specify 'File Content' as data from one structure , 'Delimiter as comma', 'File Structure' as filed order matches source structure definition,
'File Type' as Record end marker(text file),'Code Page' as ASCII.

LSMW Specify files--multiple files
Hi ,
I have the data in two files.
how can i specify these two files . i know we have to use the option wildchar in hte step "specify files"
can anyone give me the exact procedure to do the same.
Thanks in advanceHi Kiran,
U don't always need to use wildcards - if u have 2 files and u know their full names then there's no need for wildcards. It depends on how many source structures u defined in "Maintain Source Structures" step.
If u have 2 source struc. and 2 files (1 file for each source) then it's very simple:
In "Specify Files" step, create the 1st file. Then click on "Legacy Data" again and click create again. Enter the data (name etc.) and confirm. Now u will see 2 files (on both u have to choose "Data for one source structure" radio button). Save and go to the next step "Assign Files": here assign to each source struc. its own file and u're done.
If u have 2 files for 1 source u can simply create a new file and copy both files into it one after the other.
If it's another case describe it so i can answer.
Usually the use of wildcards is done only when u have a long list of files and it's to much work to create them all or a part of the file name is not constant.
Pls reward if helps.

A little help gurus
When I save the .txt file into the LSMW, an error comes out that says "File Name 'Converted Data' : Max 45 Characters . Remaining data saved."
What does this mean? What impact does it have in LSMW?
Thanks in advanceHi,
For example if the field name in sap, say name of the vendor is only 35 characters and you have maintained in the flat file 40 characters. the system will through a warning saying that the data is exceeding my 5 characters so the sap system will reduce that 40 characters to 35(means the system will cut the last 5 characters) and load it.
It is recommended that the field name should not be over the size of the field length provided my SAP.
Thanks & Regards,

Error in LSMW while specifying file for Material Cassification and Info Rec
Hi Friends,
I'm getting an error in LSMW while specifying file for Material Cassification and Info Record using batch input method.
The error message i'm getting is:
"Length of physical file name 'R2R_33_PURCH_INFR_1_PIR_CREATE.lsmw.conv' cannot be longer than 30 characters
Message no. /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_060049"
I tried changing the file name but that is not working out. Please help.
Thanks,
AmitHi,
Just try this,
Go to LSMW, Specify file option, use display/change (Ctrl+F1)
Select the converted data and double click, change the file name there,
You will be getting it as "'R2R_33_PURCH_INFR_1_PIR_CREATE"
Just trim this to "'R2R_33_PUR_INF_1_PIR_CRE" and try...

LSMW: Error concerning the logical path in Specify Files step
Hi,
I am trying on an ECC 6.0 EHP6 system to upload (open) POs from an existing SAP ERP system. Since I faced some complications in batch input recording method, I decided to go with the standard batch/direct input method.
I selected object 0085 (Purchase Order) and method 0001 (Purchase Order). The program that is used is RM06EEI0. I followed all the usual steps, but in the "Specify Files" step I get the message:
'****.lsmw.conv' does not exist; edit the logical path using transaction FILE
Being aware of both the FILE and SF01 transactions, I created the logical path and file (through the FILE transaction). However, after the modification, I get the message:
Logical file '****' is not assigned to physical file '****.lsmw.conv'
There is also the related SAP Note 753511 (Logical and physical path and file name in transaction LSMW) that refers to this case.Hi,
Click on specify file radio button>Legacy data-on the PC Front end
where input file location like C:\mydocument\desktop\test.txt
and give input in Name field: mydocument
in delimiter section > select Tabular
File structure section> tick on Field order matches source structure definition
File type: Record end marker(Text file)
then press enter key and other steps as same.
Second thing you said that you have used Batch input recording
after creation and recording finish , scroll the page below on recording and put a cursor unwanted field and remove unwanted input field.
I hope your problem will resolve. you can find the steps pdf on Google search try now.
Thanks

LSMW by BI : Unable to specify file in step 7; logical Path not assigned
Hi,
I'm trying to uplaod HR DATA using object 0555 and method 0000 for Program RPDUSTD00 using LSMW Batch Input Method.
In step 7 when i specify file which tab delimited text file at front end pc(at my pc) let say c:\test.txt and save I got error message 'Logical path not assigned'.
Please suggest what I'm missing and what i need to do to get it correct.
Thanks,
Anshuman.Hi,
There are other files specified in the screen for imported and converted data. These files must be accessible on SAP application server. If the logical file names are not created use physical ones lik /tmp/blabla.lsmw.read etc.
Make sure you use different files for different objects.
Kind regards

Dear consultant
This given below error come in 7th stap(Specify files) in LSMW, please guide me how to do it
File Name 'Converted Data': Max. 45 Characters. Remaining data saved.
Message no. /SAPDMC/LSMW_OBJ_060028
Diagnosis
Some import interfaces only accept file names (including path) that have a maximum of 45 characters.
System Response
All data except the file name of the converted data is saved.
Procedure
Adjust the file name for the converted data.
Regards
MaheshIn specify file - > converted data the file name is formed using the PROJECT , SUBPROJECT NAME AND OBJECT NAME so the after concatenating it is going more than 45 char . so in specifyfile->converted data , reduce the file name ( by remove the some initial charaters ) to name less the 45 characters. this will slove u r issue.

LSMW : Unable to Specify Files . Logical path incorrect ?
Hi Guys,
I am trying to upload Goods movement Using the Standard LSMW 0110 program RM07MMBL.
When I try to execute the step Specify Files ,system displays an error message "No Logical Path specified."
The Source File is in my Local PC .
When I click the Converted Data File in the Specify files list
I get a popup which asks me for a Logical path and a Logical File and both these parameters a mandatory.
I tried to maintain the parameters and entries in transaction FILE also.
But it says 'logical path not assigned to the physical directory.'
What is the correct method for this.
What steps should I follow ..
Pls advice
Message was edited by: hao fuHi,
Refer the oss note 753511 released for this kind of error you face in LSMW, I am pasting the content of the note below,
******************Note Content,
Symptom
The system issues an error message for the logical path or file when you perform the "Specify files" step in the Legacy System Migration Workbench (transaction LSMW) although you have made the correct assignment in transaction FILE.
The error messages are as follows:
The logical path <PATH> does not point to the physical directory.
The logical file <FILE> is not assigned to the physical file.
or
A logical path was not specified.
Other terms
Logical path, logical file, transaction FILE, LSM Workbench
Reason and Prerequisites
Some import interfaces that you can also use with transaction LSMW work with logical path and file names.
Transaction LSMW itself, however, works with physical file names. To be able to transfer the LSMW file with the converted data to the import program, you must specify a logical file name for the file with the converted data in addition to the physical file name. In this case, the system displays additional fields in the 'Specify files' step in which you must enter the logical path and file name.
Solution
The error messages may be due to several causes. Check the following:
Have you maintained the logical path and logical file name and have you assigned them to the physical file specified in the "File" input field of transaction LSMW?
These settings are maintained in transaction FILE.
When you use logical file and path names, you must specify the name of the physical file with its path. If you have not specified any directory, you cannot assign any directory to the logical path in transaction FILE. In this case, the system uses the SAP Home directory on the application server by default. Bear in mind that the file name must not exceed the maximum length of 45 characters, including the path.
Up to LSMW version 1.7.2 (*):
If the logical file name specified does not point to the physical file (although it should do), the system adjusts the logical file name, that is, the information in transaction FILE is changed to the entries made in transaction LSMW. This may lead to unwanted side effects if the logical file is also used somewhere else. Therefore, SAP recommend that you always use separate logical paths and file names for transaction LSMW (the problem is corrected as of LSMW version 1.8.0, see below). If the logical file does not exist yet, it will be created upon request.
As of LSMW version 1.8.0 (*):
The settings of the logical file are checked but no longer adjusted automatically as in version 1.7.2 (see above). If there are inconsistencies, the system issues an error message. If the user is authorized to maintain logical paths and file names (as for transaction FILE: "Maintenance authorization for cross-client tables"), transaction LSMW can create the logical path, the file name and the file. Due to this automatic generation, the user no longer needs to make adjustments in transaction FILE. Therefore, we especially recommend this procedure.
To display the version of transaction LSMW, select "Extras" --> "Display LSMW version" in the main menu of the initial screen.
You should also bear in mind that as of Basis Release 6.20, that is, as of LSMW version 4.0, transaction LSMW is no longer an add-on but is delivered with the standard system.
Hope this helps,

LSMW problem (Specify files)
Hi Friends
I try to specify file in LSMW (from local PC).
<b>Legacy Data On the PC (Frontend)</b>
When I save this step I get error like "No Logical Path Specified".
What should I do to correct this problem. Please help me.
Thanks in advance.
HariSrikanth thanks.
When I check logical path & file for converted data, those fields are mandatory fields. There is now value assigned, so I get this error. Now I assign logical path & file which already defined in system.
For the lofical path, when I check in FILE transaction it has physical path as /usr/sap/DEV/SYS/global/<FILENAME>.
But when I assign this logical path in LSMW (converted data)..I get error message like "Logical path does not point to physical directory"
What should I do in this case.
Please explain me.
Thanks
