Problem in loading data from flat file to info object

Hi experts,
  I am new on bw. I am trying to load data from .csv file to info object. CSV file contains two colums Mat No, Mat Name and are separated by comma and similarly Mat Name is attribute of Mat No in info object. I am doing all steps by following the book but whenever I load data into info object it is loaded in one column. I mean both Mat no and Mat name apears in Mat No column whereas Mat Name column appears empty in info object. I have changed exel file into .csv. Any one can help me sort it out.
regards

Hi,
your flatfile should be in the form of csv ie it does not mean that in a word u seperate it with coma
create an excel file and say save as in teh file name give the name of your flatfile and in the save as type select CSV(comma delimited) from the drop down list
and then in this file enter the data as u fill in excel sheet.
After closing the file right click it and say open with wordpad then the data should appear seperated with a comma.
Try this and then revert back in case of any doubts.........
Are u loading data into BI 7.0 or 3.x

  • Loading data from flat file...

    Hello,
    I am actually experiencing a problem where I cant load data from a flat file into a table. I have actually reverse engineered the flat file into ODI. But the thing is I don't know how to load the data that is reversed into a RDBMS table. Added, I don't know how create this RDBMS table form within ODI to be reflected on the DB. Added, don't know how to load the data from the flat file onto this table without having to add the columns in order to map between the flat file and the table.
    In conclusion, I need to know how to create an RDBMS table from within ODI on the database. And how to automatically map the flat file to the DB table and load the data into the DB table.
    Regards,
    Hossam

    Hi Hossam,
    We can used ODI procedure to create table in the DB.
    Make sure you keep the column name in the table name same as the column name in FLAT FILE so that it can automatically map the column.
    and regarding Loading data from FLAT File i.e. our source table is FLAT FILE till ODI 10.1.3.4 we need to manually insert the datastore since the file system cannot be reversed.
    Please let me know Hossam if i can assis you further.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Andy

  • Loading data from flat file to ODS

    Hi Experts,
    I have a developed a report, in which Flat file is the datasource and data target as DSO. 
    Here I have one requriment to Increatment the counter value in TVARVC table after every load compleate.
    Can this be done thru Process chain?  I belive this can be done thru process chain by creating variable.
    If this can be done thru Process chains can  any experts send me sample examples code.
    Thanks In Advance.

    Hi sridhar,
         We have a similar scenario in which we will load data from flat file to datasource the file name (x_20081010.dat) of such format  being fetched from the low value of the TVARVC table ... once successfully executed we had program to increment the value of low which increments by one day adn the next day the file with that will be placed in the application server...
        U can create a abap program varaint and attribute for that and u can achieve that.... this is sample code which searches for the string and after some coding i.e once ur file has been loaded successful code u can write similar code to increment or counter values which u are asking for...
    search s_tvarvc-low for '20'.
            if sy-subrc ne 0.
              sy-msgty = 'E'.
              sy-msgid = 'ZWM1'.
              sy-msgno = '000'.
              sy-msgv1 = 'Unable to find DATE to increment'.
              raise unable_increment.
            else.
              w_date = s_tvarvc-low+sy-fdpos(08).
              w_nextdate = w_date + 1.
              replace w_date with w_nextdate into s_tvarvc-low.
              modify tvarvc from s_tvarvc.
            endif.

  • Loading data from flat file to table

    Hi,
    I am using OWB 10g R2. I have to develop a map which loads data from flat file to table.
    1. I have created a .csv file.
    2. Import that into OWB by Module Wizard.
    3. I have created one external table, which use the .csv file.
    After that what I have to do for successfully loading the data into table.
    Regards,
    Sanjoy

    Hi Sanjoy
    You can building a mapping to move the data from somewhere to somewhere else. More specifically;
    1. create a mapping
    2. add external table to mapping
    3. add table to mapping for target (it can be unbound)
    4. map from external table ingroup to target table ingroup (all columns will be mapped)
    5. if target table was unbound right click on target table and click create and bind
    This is a basic mapping you can have for this scenario. There is a post here which does something like this, but it will create a File to Table mapping which will use SQLLoader.

  • Error in loading data from flat file....

    Hi,
    While loading the data from flat file , only one column is getting populated in the ODS and after that the sixth column is getting populated with the null values. Also when I save the changes in CSV file .. its not getting saved.
    Could you please tell me what could be the probable reason for this.
    Also what are the points we should keep in mind while loading from flat files.
    Regards,
    Jeetu

    Hi,
    You need to take care of -
    1. you flat file structure ( left to right columns) should match with the datasource ( top to down) column to column. if you don't wish to laod some column, leave it as blank column in flat file.
    2. your file should not be open when loading data
    3. make sure your transfer rules & update rules are defined properly.
    4. do the simulation in infopakage first & that will give you fair idea.
    5. to start with load data first in PSA Only, check & then take it forward.
    hope it helps

  • Loading data from flat file into 0EMPLOYEE

    Dear,
    I want to see the <b>'monthly change of numbers of employees'</b> of my company in a BW report.
    i want to do this by loading data from a dummy flat file into 0EMPLOYEE and afterwards into cube 0PAPA_C02.
    i've searched the whole 'help and service sap' websites but nowhere, i could find a usefull user guide.
    Could you explain me how this job needs to be done, are there certain steps that need to be taken?
    here are a few of my questions:
    1: what fields and data do i have to fill in my flat file?
    2: how does the time-dependency of master data of employee work?
    3: why do you only have to map 0calday and 0employee from infosource 0HR_PA_PA_1 to the corresponding fields of cube 0PAPA_C02?
    4: how is the key figure 0HDCNT_VC filled automathically?
    (the activation of cube 0PAPA_C02  and its flow is already done.)
    or maybe you know a user guide which explains the whole picture and could you send me its link?
    thanks a lot in advance,
    Julie de Meyer

    Hi,
    Employee is master data : You need to extarct data every month.Once the extraction is done , you need rto activate to see the results. Otherwise it will display old result.
    You can extract data for 0HR_PA_0 and 0HR_PA_1 cubes also. After that  you can do the reporting based on this.
    You can try some sap standard BI reports .
    Headcount is calculated based on employement percentage which is maintained in infotype 0007 (Planned Working Time). If it is 100 then it is considerd as headcount 1.
    you can check .

  • Loading data from flat file to infocube

    hi,can any one give me the steps invovled  in loading data from flatfile to info cube in an elegant way

    hi,
    data loading in BI 7.0 from fla file means
    fisrt create one Cube or DSO with the same structure which you have in flatfile..and activate it.. ->now comes to Datasource tab> create one Datasource here you need to select type of data for example..
    select Transactional data --> and menntion your flatfile name in extraction tab- and file type and eneter your info object names in FIELDS tab -->
    and load preview data Activate it..
    now select your datasource and create info package and schedule it..
    now your data will loded in to PSA level...----> and now comes to info provider select your cube.. and right clcik it..
    and create transformations.,. and activate it..----> and create DTP -- Activate it.. and Execute it..
    1)Create datasource. Here u can set/check the Soucre System fields.
    2)Create Transformation for that datasource. (no more update rules/transfer rules)
    2.1) While creating transformation for DS it will ask you for data target name, so just assign where u want to update ur data.
    DataSource -> Transformation -> (DTP)-->Data TargetNow if you want to load data into data target from Source System Datasource:
    1) Create infopackage for that data source. If you are creating infopackage for new datasources, it will only allow you update upto PSA, all other options u can see as disabled.
    2)Now Create DTP (Data Transfer Process) for that data source.
    3) NOw schdule the Infopackage, once the data is loaded to PSA, you can execute your DTP which will load data to data target.
    Data Transfer Process (DTP) is now used to load data using the dataflow created by the Transformation.
    Here's how the DTP data load works:
    1) Load InfoPackage
    2) Data gets loaded into PSA (hence why PSA only is selected)
    3) DTP gets "executed"
    4) Data gets loaded from PSA into the data target once the DTP has executed
    if helpful provide points

    can u plz provide code also how can i schedule the data load with every saturday  with different state column values automatically.
    Thanks & Regards,

    The best solution would be:
    get the flat file to the Database server
    define an External Table pointing to that flat file
    insert into destination table(s) as select * from external_table
    Loading only single state data each Saturday might mean troubles, but assuming there are valid reasons to do so, you could:
    create a job with a p_state parameter executing insert into destination table(s) as select * from external_table where state = p_state
    create a Scheduler chain where each member runs on next Saturday executing the same job with a different p_stateparameter

  • Scheduling Problem for uploading Data from Flat file to SAP

    Hi guys,
    I am facing a weared problem in uploading some leave records in z table. The code is working fine if we run it through se38 after selecting the file from a shared location from production server which has all the access rights.
    This folder lies in the \usr folder of SAP Production.
    I have kept all the Flat files in the shared path "
    Tis-mum-iz-s1\migration\SAP-INT\leave\" ...
    To give u exact directory structure..
    Tis-mum-iz-s1 is the Server Name
    usr is the SAP System folder used for uploads and downloads
    usr |
    ...-> Migration |
                      -> SAP-INT |
                                 -> leave -> (Flat Files)
    Migration folder is shared with all rights.
    Obviously, we cannot give shared drive as the variant in the scheduler.
    So i use the system path i.e. \usr\sap\tmp\migration\sap-int\leave\ as the variant.
    All my other download programs are working fine with this path as a variant...
    But my this particular upload program does not work with this path....
    I am giving u my code...

  • Error 1 when loading data from flat file

    Hi,
    I am working on BW 3.5 when i was loading flat file it is giving error 1 when loading external data can anyone solve and mail to me this email id [email protected] .

    Hi,
    I have done correctly but even error 1 data loading from external file is coming, i just clicked on that and it came like this, Error 1 when loading external data,no invalid data like arthematics operations,But file accessing and path is correct.
    Message no. RSAR234
    Diagnosis
    Error number 1 occurred when loading external data:
    1. Error when reading the file (access rights, file name, ...)
    2. File size or number of records does not correspond to the data in the control file
    3. Error when generating the IDoc
    4. File contains invalid data (errors with an arithmetic operation or data conversion)
    Procedure
    Check whether you have the required access rights and whether the data in the control file is correct (file names, record length, number of records, ...). Correct the data in the control file if necessary and check the data file for invalid data (values of the wrong type, values in the wrong format for conversion exit,...). Check whether the file has headers that have not been specified.
    Thanks

    Hi
    If in flat file say i have country code as 0190.i have extracted the data to data targets but in the data targets the country code is displayed as 190.how can i rectify this error.I have used Alpha conversion but still i have this problem??
    Points Assured
    Thanks

    its a general practice that the system eliminates the prefix Zeros..
    Use the option:
    format and define the cell as text
    thanks

  • Problem while uploading data from flat file

    i had used call transaction for purchase order application?

    thanks & regards
    priya

    Hi Hari,
    you have to upload the remaining data.
    as u have used CT method, do 1 thing trap the error data in runtime & prepare another flat file. next time correct the data in new flat file. & run the DBC program again with this new flat file.
    Reward if useful
