Program for storing files on application server

Hi,
I want to store my csv file on application sever can any one provide me the program for this

Maya,
there is no program per se for this ....
you would need to maintain the directory structure in AL11 and then if required , you can have an FTP program to push the file into that directory. Also please specify your landscape - are you on Windows / UNIX / AIX / SOLARIS... depending on that you would have to configure your FTP client...

Hope it helps...

Try declaring it as TYPE STRING. Not sure though.
There are two predefined types in ABAP with variable length:
STRING for character strings
XSTRING for byte strings

Urgent.... Help Needed for Storing file in Application Server

Hi All,
I have a requirement where in I have to save a file in Application Server.
File is of 141 Character Length, so there can be spaces left at the end.
When I am downloading the file into Application Sever and then downloading the same file from Application Server to Presentation into a notepad then the spaces at the end are truncating.
I want that the file that is generated should be of 141 character though if there may be spaces at the end.
It will be great if you can help me out in this.
Thanks in Advance.
Jayant Sahu.

when downloading to App server, you need to specify the LENGTH option on your TRANSFER ststement to keep fixed length. You must also use a STRING type variable in your transfer.
From Documentation on Transfer command:
If the file was opened as a text file or a legacy text file, the trailing blank characters are deleted for all data objects, except for those of data type string. The line end marker defined when the file was opened is then added to the remaining content of the data object or to the result of the conversion, and the final result is written byte-by-byte to the file.
There also used to be a problem with WS_DOWNLOAD - you had to do the following:
Maintaining Trailing spaces when downloading to PC
Before calling DOWNLOAD or WS_DOWNLOAD, do a perform SET_TRAIL_BLANKS(saplgrap) using 'X'
To set the length of each record including your blanks add this code: perform SET_FIXLEN(saplgrap) using '0' '100'
Don't think this is needed any more.

T-code for delete file from application server

Hi all!
Please, has any t-code for delete file from application server? For upload exist CG3Z, for download has CG3Y. And for delete? Has anyone?
I need to delete file from application server in QA system and i don't want to create a program for this because i will need to transport a request from DEV to QA.

I don't have contact with basis team.

Anybody know if this transaction exist?

How to search for a file at application server?

Hi,
I need to choose one file for further processing from the directory, located into 'WORK' directory at application server. As far as I see, class CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES and FILE_OPEN_DIALOG woudn't help me - it's a 'FRONTEND_SERVICES'.... and work with directories at presentation server.
The requirement is that the user has no file sharing from his local PC to the mentioned directory at application server - this directory is visible only in the scope of the application server. I need something as flexible as CL_GUI_FRONTEND_SERVICES=>FILE_OPEN_DIALOG, if exist.
How can I achieve this?
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Many thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ivaylo Mutafchiev

Thanks to all contributors!
After short testing I found the following:
1. F4_DXFILENAME_TOPRECURSION is not what I was looking for - it doesn;t behave as expected.
2. FM EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING would help if I need the result into an internal table (thsi would be a case too), but it doesn;t prompt for selection. Helpful, anyway.
3. /SAPDMC/LSM_F4_SERVER_FILE is the closest match to the requirements.
Thanks to all.

Load flat files in batch without storing files on application server

Hi SDN-ers
We would like to load flatfiles into BW in batch but .... and this is the tricky part, without storing the file on the application server. We are able to call remote function modules from outside the system so maybe we can attach the file as an internal table with a remote function call and post it in PSA. Anyone ever tried this ?
Thanks,
Hans

Hi,
   I would suggest to upload the data in flat file in a Database table in BW and then
   create a generic extractor on top of it to load the data into Cube or ODS . In this
   way you will have a copy of the data in files.

Suppose if i am having 5 files with above scenario, i have to fetch all those 5 files at a time and place in my SAP Program.
All those 5 file's data should come into SAP at a time.
Can anybody tell me how can we solve above issue.

Logical path for getting a Flat file from application server

Hi All,
We have loaded some .csv files to application server, what is the logical path we have to mention in the infopackage scheduler screen? please guide me how to give the path for getting a flat file from application server.
Thanks,
Sairam.

Hi Sairam,
I hope you know which location you have saved in the Application server.
Now if you go to the Infopackage and click on the "External Data" tab, there you will see Radio Buttons for
1) Client Workstation
2) Application Server
Choose the second radio button, then in the Field "Name of the File" you will be able to use the F4 help and browse AL11 transaction through this option. You can then choose the File.
Hope this helps
Regards,
Praveen.
