*****output File format

Hi all,
Instead of Time stamp in the out put file ,we require the out put file format as xyz_a.txt,xyz_b.txt.......
eg:file name sample.txt out put required is sample_a,sample_b,sample_c......
is it possible in Xi?
Thanks,
Srinivasa

Hi,
Yes, you need to use variable substitution
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nwpi71/helpdata/en/44/6a316af5a23672e10000000a114a6b/frameset.htm
Filename : sample_%var%.txt
Keep the mode as Create
The value of Var will be made a, b, or c in message mapping.
also if you want to name the target file as the one which you have read you can make use of Dynamic configuration, as mentioned here (See adapter specific identifiers)

The procedure allows for the header and data to go to seperate files if required. Just specifying the "header" filename will put the header and data in the one file.
Adapt to output different datatypes and styles are required (this is currently coded for VARCHAR2, NUMBER and DATE)

Adhoc Query- problem with the output file format

Hi Gurus,
I have a problem in exporting the output of an adhoc query to Excel format.
The menu option I chose to export the report data into Excel is List>Export>Spreadsheet.
However,I think I've just pressed the wrong option to export my report and now I can't seem to change it from a HTML file option.
Can anybody help me correct this output setting.
Points assured for apt help...

Hi Sushil,
There are two ways to save the output in the excel format.
As you have mentioned, you can use
List -> Export-> Spreadsheet.
Then select table. Now the output will open in a spreadsheet.
The other way is
List -> Export-> Local File
Here you need to select the option spreadsheet. Then mention the path where you want the file to be stored. Also mention the format as .xls
Hope this helps
Regards,
Brinda

Output file formats in receiver file adapter

Hi,
Is it possible to create a tab delimited or a .CSV file in a receiver file adapter ??

HI,
It is possible to create a tab delimited/.csv file in a receiver file adapter by choosing "File content conversion" as a Message Protocol. But you need to do content conversion based on structure.

Changing the file format of spool output when scheduling a background job.

Hello Experts,
I have an issue. It is related to Spool output format. I created a job for one report program for which the output is a list output. I have added one recipient in the 'Spool list recipient' while creating the job SM36. After the job is finished the spool output is sent to the recipient mail id as .htm format as an attachment. But the attachment should be excel sheet or text file. No coding in the program should be used to convert the file format. Only settings in the spool while creating job should be manipulated. Please help me in solving this issue.
Regards.

Hi Sunil,
You can use the logic for converting spool to PDF using program : RSTXPDFT4 . Alternatively you can use FM: CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF . In this FM you need to pass the Spool id .
u can make use of these FM's SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
SO_NEW_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1
Check out the following wiki:

hope this will use full to you.

Output file name format

Hi All,
How can i configure output file name to the desired format generated in target directory in communication channel configuration in conf scenario.
ex: i want to generate the file in the below format..
YYYYMMDD_<Receiver>.TXT
Thanks and Regards
Venkatesh

Hi,
This is the UDF u have to write in Mapping,
DynamicConfiguration conf = (DynamicConfiguration) container.getTransformationParameters().get(StreamTransformationConstants.DYNAMIC_CONFIGURATION);
DynamicConfigurationKey key =
DynamicConfigurationKey.create("http://sap.com/xi/XI/System/File","FileName");
String ourSourceFileName = conf.get(key);
return ourSourceFileName;
Using this u will get the File name into target side,In this UDF add the Time stamp.
Check this link for more details.

Required output File In UTF -8 NO BOM format

Hi,
I am Working with Idoc to File scenario.
Where the some of the data for the file will be in Chiniese.
So i used the file encoding parameters as GB18030 in file reciever.
But the legacy system to get process the format of the file should be UTF -8 NO BOM format.
So what encoding parameter should be used to get the output file in UTF -8 NO BOM and chiniese format.
Regards,
Manoj

this might be helfulll check........
Under File Encoding, specify a code page.
The default setting is to use the system code page that is specific to the configuration of the installed operating system. The file content is converted to the UTF-8 code page before it is sent.
Permitted values for the code page are the existing Charsets of the Java runtime. According to the SUN specification for the Java runtime, at least the following standard character sets must be supported:
■ US-ASCII
Seven-bit ASCII, also known as ISO646-US, or Basic Latin block of the Unicode character set
■ ISO-8859-1
ISO character set for Western European languages (Latin Alphabet No. 1), also known as ISO-LATIN-1
■ UTF-8
8-bit Unicode character format
■ UTF-16BE
16-bit Unicode character format, big-endian byte order
■ UTF-16LE
16-bit Unicode character format, little-endian byte order
■ UTF-16

ALV Grid to be run in background & to generate output file in Excel format

I use REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY in my program for the ALV output
My Requirement is Program to be run in a background since it is getting timed out when executed in foreground and also to generate the output file in Excel format. And we are using 4.6 C version.
how do i attain this?

Hello,
One alternate solution can be :
Execute your report in background and then send the data to Spool .
From this spool , you can download the data in excel file.

Output report data to excel file format or csv format

Is there any way to save softcopy of report output to excel file format or csv format.

Hi,
Regarding csv file format, i have no issues. The file is generating without any issues in using oracle reports without using any PL/SQL code.
My requirement is to design oracle reports to generate excel (.xls) file with multiple worksheets. Each sheets are having many data and graphs(chart).
Using oracle reports alone, how to achieve this.
In oracle reports 10g 1.2.0 version, I tried by creating .rdf file but, it is generating single worksheet only.
In oracle reports 10g 1.2.0 ver, I tried by creating .jsp file. For this first i am creating excel template about how my ouput column headings all that going to be with one sample hard coded data and save the excel file as web page.
Eg employee.html.
Next open the html file in oracle reports builder and double click the websource now, you will see the jsp tags, html and xml tags. Now include the contentType="application/vnd.ms-excel " and charset also.
Next, include the <rw:foreach id="G_EMPNO_1" src="G_EMPNO">
here insert the fieldl for each column by removing the hard coded values.
close the tag
</rw:foreach>
Save the file as .jsp and deploy it in oc4 enabled folder (say, devsuite_home/reports/j2ee/reports_ids/web
Start the oc4J server
Run it in the browser http://server:port/reports/emp.jsp?useride=uid/pwd@db
It is invoking the Microsoft excel with 3 sheets default and my emp table output in the first page.
We can save this output file as .xls file by clicking file -> save as.
1) The question is, it is working fine with Microsoft excel 97-2003 version. But for excel 2007, i am not able to create single html file like how 2003 save web page option.
2) I found this in oracle getting started demo
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/index.html
Which is more useful. This is what i am looking for.
I done that in excel 2003 as per demo. But excel 2007 with reports 10g issues.
Is there any demo for 10g with excel 2007
3) For most of excel issues working fine with excel 2003 and 10g. But excel 2007 with 10g reports are issues.
I want the excel output from oracle reports with multiple worksheet similar to the above demo.
Thank you.

Output file in not a proper format

Hello, My JAVA program generate an output file using FileWriter. The name of output file is output.dat (ie a NOTEPAD file). But when I open up the file it is not in proper format. All the text get clustered. But when I open the same file in MircoSoft Word its open with no problem. Is there any solution to this problem.
bye

Most text editors will accept '\n' alone as the line terminator. Notepad is an exception.
Workarounds are:
1. Write an '\r' immediately before each '\n'.
2. Get a decent text editor.
