LSMW using Recording

Hi,
I am trying to upload Regional structure using LSMW. I have recorded transaction SR10 (Create City) but I am not sure how to proceed further. What changes I need to do in the recording and what should be the target structure for that.
If anybody can tell how to use the recording it'll be a great help.
Thanks.
Jashan

While recording you should place the cursor on all the fields you need to fill (filling them) and using the transaction SR10 as normal for creating a city. Once you save it the record will be done and you'll have all the fields of the target structure that you will need to map from the source file.
However I'll suggest you to use within the LSMW the standard Regional Structure upload program instead of your own recording. The standard one works perfectly.
Cheers,
Aubin

Hi
I have used the direct input but, there are address fields missing in the direct input like, SORT2, MOB_NUMBER, SMTP_ADDR. these fields.
when i see the documentation for direct input, it says for additional address you need to use another BAPI. but here the problem is we are using internal numbering for vendor, so how to link the created vendor and the address uploaded to correct vendor.
thanks a lot,.

List recipe (tx. c201) in lsmw using recording method

Hi.
I'm trying to upload master data for recipe list (tx c201), and I'm not so sure which method I should use, i tried with an standard object but it works with idocs and i supposed to configure a lot of stuffs (ibounds, ports, etc), and using recording... how can i handle controls tables when the number of items it's variable?.
Reading through the sdn i realized that it's good to work with two files, one with master data and the second one with detail or item data. Actually i used that method to upload data in lsmw but using a standard direct input program and works pretty good..., but using a recording I don't know how to handle this.
Thanks in advance,
Regards.

Get your test data from functional folks then do the recording based on that. After done with the recording you may delete the existing values(which are used for recording). This is because, for example say you are having the data in an EXCEL sheet and for a particular customer one of the fields is empty. In this case, the DB will be updated with the value provided in the recording.

Lsmw using recording/Direct input for customer using xd01-urgent please

how will you upload the record for a customer if you have more than one record for bank master data for that customer. becoz a customer have have many bank details associated with his customer no.
.that is how would you handle table control in screens in lsmw..

HI,
Use the Standard Batch Input Program to upload the Customer Bank data.
Object 0050 Customer master
Method 0000
Program Name RFBIDE00
Program Type B Batch Input
Create the two structures
1) Customer data
 Customer Data Structure contains the general Customer details
2) Customer Bank data ( this structure must be child to th above structure)
 this structure contains the Bnak Details
while defining the source fields take one field as indicator(Char 1) in both the structures,
for the Indicator field
in Customer data structure place the Identifying Field Content H
in Customer Bank data structure place the Identifying Field Content I
i.e. to differentiate the Header and Item
In Maintain Structure Relations step
 assign the Customer data Structure where required
 assign the Customer bank data structure to the Traget Structure BKNBK
In Field Mapping step map the fields accordingly..
in specify file step
create a file and select the radio button Data for Multiple Source Structures
assign the Source file to both the Source Structures.
then Read data
Convert data......
Note:The Source file should contain the Header Item Differentiation
as Header record should contain the 'H' as the indicator value (First filed value should be H for an Header Record )
same as for item record (i.e. for bank data , the first field(Indicator) value must be 'I'.).

Create new LSMW using Idoc for HR master Data

Hi Guys,
I was wondering id someone could help me. I have started developing an LSMW, of which I have already
created the Object. I have also created the Maintain attributes and I have supplied the Message Type, Basic Type and activated the IDOC inbound processing after providing the appropriate information.
The question I have is in the "Maintain source structure" do I need to create a structure for data records
and a structure for header?
Can I do a recording for transaction     -
"PA30" ---> update infotype 6
                                                       |
IDOC   -
> infotype 0,1,2,6
I have previously created HR LSMW using recording, but I have not used the IDOC facility and I'm not
sure of the differences.
Does anyone have any documentation.
Regards,
Frank

Dear Frank,
For Idoc method need to do setting first.
Creating pratner profile,.....................etc.
then rest of the thing are same.

How to use LSMW using the IDOC to upload and maintain cost center group

Hi Everyone,
Is there anyone who knows how to use LSMW using the IDOC functions instead of the recording. I wanted to upload the alternative cost center group I created in the system.
reply would be greatly appreciated
Warm Regards

Hi Praveen,
There is a risk trying to migrate data directly into standard tables because this can generate database inconsistences or wrong inserted data according to what is customized in the target system. I do not recommend migrate like this.
With LSMW you use objects like direct input programs, idocs, bapis and recorded batch input. Try to create a project and use an standard object for your data. Also, check in SXDA transaction (Goto-->DX programs) if there is a standard program for your data.
Anyway, if you want to upload data directly to tables, read below thread:
["UPLOAD CSV FILE";
[how to upload .csv file into a custom table;

LSMW ME41 Recording

Hi experts,
Is it possible to use LSMW thorugh recording For ME41(Purchase Quotation)tcode for multiple items?
if so how to do it? please explain how lsmw work for multiple header and multiple items in one legacy text file.
Thanks & Regrads,
Rao

Hi,
correct me if i am wrong here, are you telling me you are not able to fill items more than what the screen is able to display in the table control.
if that is the case why dont you use NEW button the application toolbar, so no matter how many items have already present in the RFQ, the table control will position the new item in the second line. So to add a new item click the new button and add the item at the second line, this should solve your problems no matter how many items need to be created.
In recording when u record it for adding one item, you need to loop at your table containing the indicator of item type and call the code repeatedly to add all items.
Hope that throws some light, let me know if you need some more details.

LSMW Batch recording

Dear All,
I am uploading stock using LSMW batch recording .I want to create only one material document for all the material stock upload.What is the procedure I have to follow.
Please advice
Thanks

I doupt that this is possible, because of a technical limit in the accounting document.
Accounting document can only have 999 items,
Each material document item can create several accounting document items, because of this a physical inventory docuemnt is limited to 300 items.
So you should at least create a new material document after 300 items to avoid a posting failure.
Further recording is the worst method, which should only be used if no SAP given import method is present. for material movements you have standard/direct input and IDOC and BAPI methods ready for use .
In a static recording you probably get already issues to enter more items than your first screen allows . In SAP given import methods you can just transfer records and count them and do a transfer_transactio when 300 items are reached.

LSMW using IDocs/BAPIS

Hi All,
I am new to LSMW and want a simple tutorial for using LSMW using Idocs and BAPIs. I have found many useful tutorials for Direct Input and Batch Recording. If anyone can give me link or a tutorial for using lsmw with idocs and bapis it will be of great help.
Thanks in advance.
archish

Hi,
is step by step process .
Step-by-Step Guide for using BAPI in LSMW
Note! The screen prints in this article are from ECC 5.0. They may differ slightly in other versions.
Introduction:
This document details the usage of BAPI in LSMW. We have used the example of migration of the purchase order data into SAP.
Pre-requisites:
It is assumed that the reader of this article has the minimum knowledge required on the Business Object, BAPI, Message Types and IDoc Types.
Step-by-Step Procedure:
Details of the BAPI used in this scenario:
Business Object: BUS2012
Method: CreateFromData
Details of Message Type and Basic IDoc Type:
Message Type: PORDCR
Basic IDoc Type: PORDCR02
Lets have a look at the BAPI first, before proceeding to the LSMW:
1. Go to Transaction BAPI
2. Click on Search Button
3. Enter the value BUS2012 and select Obj.type(Technical Object Name
4. Press ENTER
5. Following screen appears:
6. On the left side of the screen, Expand the PurchaseOrder.
7. Select PurchaseOrder and double-click on the same for details.
Building LSMW using BAPI:
1. Go to Transaction LSMW.
2. Enter the Project, Subproject and Object information and click on CREATE.
3. Enter the descriptions for Project, Subproject and Object as prompted.
4. Now select Settings à IDoc Inbound Processing
5. IDoc Inbound Processing screen appears. Enter the required details as shown below:

Business Object: BUS2012
Method: CreateFromData
Hit ENTER
12. Save and click on BACK button. Following information message is displayed.
13. Now select step 2 Maintain Source Structures and click Execute.
14. In this step, we need to maintain the source structure. In our example, lets consider the example of a file with 2 structures Head and Item data as shown below:
Click on Create and name the source structure as HEADERDATA. Now select HEADERDATA and click on Create again to create the child structure. Following popup appears:
Select Lower Level and click on Continue. Enter the Item data structure name.
Click Save and hit BACK button to go to the main screen.
15. Select step 3 Maintain Source Fields and hit execute.
16. Enter the fields as shown below:
17. Click SAVE and return to main screen.
18. Select step 4 Maintain Structure Relations and click Execute.
Select E1PORDCR and click on CREATE RelationShip. Following screen appears:
Select HEADERDATA and hit ENTER
Similarly do the same for the structure E1BPEKKOA, E1BPEKPOC and E1BPPEKET.
Click Save and return to main screen.
19. Select the step Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules and click on execute. Maintain the Field Mapping as seen below:
20. Select step 7 Maintain Source Files and provide the link for the test file created. (Create a test file with the same structure as defined earlier).
Save and return to main screen.
21. Select the step Assign Files and click on Execute.
Assign the file provided to the source structure. Here the same file is provided for both the structures.
Save and return to the main screen.
22. Select the step Read Data and click on Execute.
Click on Execute.
Return to the main screen.
23. Select the step Display read data and click on execute.
Click on the structure name to get the field level values.
24. Return to main screen and now select Convert Data.
25. Return to the main screen and select Display Converted data.
26. Return to main screen and select Start IDoc generation.
27. Now select the step Start IDoc Processing on the main screen.
28. Return to main screen and click on Create IDoc overview. Here the data record and status records of the IDoc could be viewed:

Can LSMW use customer specific mapping program?

Can LSMW use customer specific mapping program?
I have created a LSMW project to migrate various objects (Material, pricing conditions, conditions) for our new division. I want to add another object Purchasing Info records. We already have a customer specific mapping program that prepares the data for SXDB to complete the migration. After creating the new object in LSMW, I looked in step 1 (Maintain object attributes) but couldnt see anywhere convenient to put the program name.
I know that LSMW provides a mapping facility of its own, but can I avoid reinventing the wheel and instead own specific program?
Slath

Hi,
I am afraid, that is not possible. It is possible to create your own BDC recording but not the way you want to do. LSMW needs to know your source and target structures and then you do the mapping from source to target within LSMW. It stores this mapping information in several tables and unless LSMW has those entries, it will not be able to generate the mapping(conversion) program. Also, LSMW creates a 'read' file and later a 'converted' file. Your mapping program may not be doing that, which means LSMW cannot execute it in later steps to actually create the Purchase Info Records.
You will have to create your own BI or DI program or a business object and a BAPI, or an IDOC type and message type and then publish it to standard SAP, then may be it will be possible. But that will be lot of work, instead use the standard one availble to you.
If you want to use your existing code then, when you get to the mapping part of it, just cut and paste the logic specific to each field in the appropriate place, or don't do any individual field mapping, but just paste all the mapping logic in the ENDOF_RECORD_ section.

Srinivas

Working on LSMW using IDoc method for processing Open Sales Orders

We are currently in middle of creation of a new instance of production for a different Business SBU. We are looking to utilise the LSMW tool using IDocs for uploading / transferring the open orders to the new box. If some one has worked on LSMW using IDocs, please get in touch and if you could share any documents on the process of utilising the LSMW tool using Idocs for any kind of conversions, it would be great. The following is a sample case.
1. Each order will have multiple segments with different qualifiers under various segments.
2. Multiple line items would be available under each order.
Issues we are currently looking to solve :
1. How do you manage to loop through the qualifiers during processing for the same segment.
2. How do you prepare the tool to recognise the multiple line items of the same order.
3. What kind of strategy needs to be used to create the input data file(s). Like, splitting the header and detail level information ?
Note : The volume of data we are looking at is somewhere around 40-60 thousand orders worldwide.
Thanks in Advance.
