Problem in material master upload using LSMW

Dear All
I am trying to upload material master using LSMW (batch input recording).
I am facing problem while doing 14 step (Run Batch Input Session). When i'm running the batch input session, on the Create Material (Initial Screen), system picks values for material code, industry sector & material type but gives error message "select at least one view". system is not allowing me select the views which i selected while recording. system allows me to select all the view which i don't want.
why system is asking me to select the views and also how to select the required view?
thanks
manoj gupta

thanks charu
do i need to do complete LSMW steps fpr all the view separately? if i do LSMW for basic view1, for other view do i need to go for change TCode or create T Code?
thanks

Material master Upload with LSMW

Hi
When I make Material master Upload with LSMW, I could not find any entry in planning file.
Please explain.

Mayuresh,
Not all LSMW transactions properly update Planning file.
You can run transaction MDAB to set up planning file in Background
You can run transaction MDRE to detect and correct Planning file inconsistancies in Background.
It is probably a good idea to run these jobs periodically, say, weekly, in most production environments.

Material Master Upload though LSMW - How to add new custom segments to LSMW

Hi,
I have an existing LSMW to create material master idocs (ZMATMAS) from legacy file. Now I need to add new custom segment under E1MARCM, for example say ZMARC1 which will have 2 new custom fields.
1. I created the segment through WE31 and released it.
2. I created an extension to ZMATMAS using WE30 and released it.
Now Im trying to change the LSMW so that I will have the new segment ZMARC1 under E1MARCM so that I can do the field mappings. But I am not able to get it done. i.e. I dont know what should I do so that I can get the new segment in LSMW.
I tried giving the extension in the first step of LSMW. i.e. Maintain Object Attributes but its not allowing me to give an extension. Do I need to add to the basic type ZMATMAS05 and release it to get it reflected in LSMW.
Please give your suggestions.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Problem in Customer Master Upload using LSMW

Hi,
I am using LSMW direct input method to upload customer master. I have used ZSOURCE structure as parent structure and for multilple entries like Bank details and contact details i have used other child structure like ZBANK and ZCONTACT. I am using separate flat file for Bank and contact details.
I have used one common field 'ID' as the first field both on ZSOURCE, ZBANK and ZCONTACT structure to link-up. Thus, i am able to load multiple records for Bank data. But i am unable to get contact details.
Also, value for Reconciliation account(KNB1-AKONT) and sales group(KNVV-VKGRP) is not passed to screen.
I have checked 'Generate Read Program','Read Data', 'Generate Conversion Program' and 'Convert Data' step again and again. Upto step 'Display Converted Data', data is converted successfully, but the same field values are not passed to screen.
Can you pls help me to get the value..

Hi,
LSMW will have a Indicator for headr and itam, i do not remember the correct field, but it will have an indicator, check the fields, there will be a single charecter lenght field, that should be the indicator, and using that we can write the logic.
check that single charecter field, if that is X that means the header record is processed, and do the items.
and, this is another way, try this out also
YOu can do this in "Define Source Structures" step,
the HEADER is defined first,
then the DETAIL below the HEADER.
add the fields to the structures.
Both should have some common key field
Please take care that the name of the common field is the same.
Once you do this it is linked. The you have a header and item corresponding to that header. then run the LSMW as you would.
Re: Table control in LSMW

I have encountered a peculiar problem in MM01 material master upload.

I have encountered a peculiar problem in MM01 material master upload. The
BDC program uploads data using Session method. The problem is when i
process the session in foreground mode the data uploads successfully, but
when i process it in background mode it gives the following errors in the
log.
'Control Framework: Fatal error - GUI cannot be reached'.
'Runtime error RAISE_EXCEPTION has occurred'.
When i debugged the program i found that this error is encountered when
data is being input in 'Purchase Order text' editor of MM01 transaction.
There is no problem with the BDC recording or the program as i could see.
The only problem what i believe is the system is unable to call the text
editor for inputting purchase order text data in background mode.

Hi
Try uploading a BAPI it would be better

Could you please help on the above query.

Jagadeeshwar B
Moderator message: subject corrected, please use a more descriptive one next time.
Edited by: Thomas Zloch on Aug 20, 2010 11:36 AM

Have you analyzed what is common to the errors?
is it the countries that are used in this cases?
or is it a certain material type?
do you have any succesfull update with a country that is among the failed ?
Have you tried manually to enter this field in MM02 for such a material?
we can only guess, maybe a typo in the country code, maybe county does not have an Iso code, maybe the field in hidden in create transaction for this material type.....

Problem loading material master (IS Mill) data from ECC to BI

Hi Gurus,
We have a problem loading Material master data from ECC to BI 7.0 SP 18.
The scenario is :
The ECC is with IS Mill... due to which the Material field MATNR is of length 40 instead of standard 18 characters.
That is data element MATNR has 18 chars and its output length is 40 chars.
When is table MARA browsed using SE16, the material with more than 18 chars.... shows only first 18 characters and are ended with !.
OMSL setting shows length as 40.
When the extractor checker runs 0MATERIAL_TEXT or 0MATERIAL_ATTR it gives correct output ..... which is more than 18 characters... not ended with !
Till here no problem.
On BI side, after replication of the datasource, i checked data element MATNR ... but it has length as 18 chars and output length as 18 chars.
OMSL setting cannot be set more than 18.
Infopackage has pulled data till PSA successfully. I checked the PSA data .... here to the material with more than 18 chars is ended with !.
When the data is further pushed to 0MATERIAL infoobject, it throws following error for all materials irrespetive of its length (example below):
0MATERIAL : Data record 768 ('SIT_PL_B01L_10_01!E '): Version 'SIT_PL_B01L_10_01! ' is not valid
0MATERIAL : Data record 165 ('RLIRS52 E '): Version 'RLIRS52 ' is not valid
Diagnosis
Data record 768 & with the key 'SIT_PL_B01L_10_01!E &' is invalid in value 'SIT_PL_B01L_10_01! &' of the attribute/characteristic 0MATERIAL.
System Response
The system has recognized that the value mentioned above is invalid, and has processed this general error message. A subsequent message may give you more information on the error. This message refers to the same value, even though it does not state this explicitly.
I did search for SAP note related to this... but could not find any.
There is one SAP note (Note 960868) which mentions about this, but the correction was then shipped with BI SP 9.... we are running on SP 18.
Requesting you all experts for help.
Best Regards,
Deepak

Hi,
follow bellow steps:
1. you need to activate the Datasouce in BI side.
Goto RSA1> Datasource> Select Datasource> Double click> Check fileds and Activate.
2. Replicate the Datasource into BI side.
3. Check the RFC connections by useing SM59.
Regards.

No batch input problem with Vendor master Upload

Hi All,
I am getting a problem with Vendor Master upload conversion. We have'nt change the code and configuration but when i try to run the code today its giving an error for particular Account group. I run this code yesterday and its work fine with that particluar Account group. But i am getting an error when i run the code today. The error is as follows "No batch input data for screen SAPMF02K 0610".When i got through the code i have'nt find that screen number.
Can anyone suggest how to resolve that problem.

Double click on the session name in SM35 and click on the screens tab there you can find the screen number.
process the same session in foreground mode and see if you are getting the same error.
If so, the new screen number you got is due to some change in the settings some where, show the new screen to Your Functional guy and he can help you.
There is one more chance where some data is missing in the flat file, just check it out.
Reward points if usefull.
Thanks ,
Veeru.
