Spool To Excel Output

Hi Friends,
How to convert the spool output to Excel format?
Thanks in advance.
Madan.

Hi Madan,
In SP01, check mark your spool number and try the below path
System-> List> Save--> Local File.
Then you will get a pop-up asking for format and there you can select spread sheet.

Shano

Report painter report in portal - Excel output in SAP GUI for HTML

Dear sirs,
I need your expertize. I would like to let my users display (Excel in place)/ save the result of my report painter reports into MS Excel. I have found notes 499262 a 314568, but didn´t understand the message (or there is no message:)). Does that mean I cannot use Excel in place together with Report painter and SAP GUI for HTML?
Second question: is there a place (user exit in generated code? I don´t even know what I am looking for) to get the data provided by the report painter engine and send the retrieved data to some custom function (to be able to call the Adobe form, to save it as a text file or any option how to manipulate the resulting data...?).
thank you for your time and effort,
regards Otto

Hi Otto,
You can send print the report to the spool and then use RSTXPDFT4 program to convert this spool to PDF file. Alternatively, you can export the spool to spreadsheet or ASCII file via SP01 transaction.
Additinally, I'm not aware of unability to use Excel output with SAP GUI interface.

Eli

With this function I can send a spool in pdf format by email. But, now I need send a spool in Excel (xls) format by email. I try to disconnect 'CONVERT_OTFSPOOLJOB_2_PDF' and 'CONVERT_ABAPSPOOLJOB_2_PDF' but doesnt work.
Can you help me?
A lot of thanks in advance.

Hi.
I do not think it is feasible to create a worthwhile Excel file from a SAP spool file.
I have reports that send output as Excel attachments to email, but the code (including function modules etc) is too much to post here.
You can use OLE to create an Excel file, but this will not generally work when the report is run in the background.
So my approach is to make the report write an Excel XML file (that's just text after all), and send that as an XLS email attachment. When the email receiver double-clicks on the attachment, it fires up Excel and brings in the data. Most users would not realise that it's not a native Excel file.
One nice touch is to have two sheets in the Excel file, one with the main report and the other with the selection criteria.
Of course there is a lot of work getting started with this.

Excel output

Hi All,
We are reading the reports output through after report trigger and spooling the data into a excel file using OLE2 package. When we are spooling the excel data containing Arabic language literals few of the literals are not coming correctly and shows "?" in place of valid data.
Sequence.
1) Arabic data is coming fine in Reports Previewer - Reports 6i
2) While spooling the data into excel some data is shown as "?" in between Arabic literals and words.
3) We have experienced this very uniquely this with 1 client in Middle east. Though these things works very fine locally.
Hope i have made it clear. Request the forum users to share their views and solutions if they have come crossed such issues in their environments.
Thanks in advance

HI,
Thanks for the reply. This is our working code and works very fine even today at various client places but this is a very peculiar and isolated issue which we are trying to figure out. Will let every one know if there were any relevant fixes for the same.
Thanks

Send/export the background job spool in Excel (in MHTML format) in ECC 6.0.

Hello All,
I have a requirement to send/export the background job spool in Excel (in MHTML format) in ECC 6.0. Please help.
Thank you.
Nalini

Hi Jigar,
Thanks for your response.
Anything is like download to desktop or email is fine. But in MHTML format.
We can download the ALV report in MHTML spreadsheet format when we run the program online. But the program is running for long time and going to dump.
So i scheduled it as background job and downloading the output in .HTML format. But user wants the spool/report output in .MHTML spreadsheet format.
I can write the code. Instead of changing the existing program I would like to know is there any way (from standard SAP) that I can get the background spool in MHTML spreadsheet format.
Thanks,
Nalini

XML Publisher report not printing excel output due to special characters

Hello,
I am trying to create a xml publisher report which should display the output in excel. But the program completes with a warning status and the output is displayed as XML instead of excel, with some errors "An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource " and i think these errors are due to the special characters(eg: city/province - A Coruña, Cáceres). If i give rownum < 10 in my query, where there are no such characters it works fine and i am getting an excel output.
Tried changing the XML encoding and it doesn't help (both mentioned below)
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
Do anyone have a solution for this

Hi Vetsrini,
We're on 10.1.3.4.1 and siebel 8.1.1.3 and when trying to open a report from within siebel in the output format EXCEL (selected from the parameter applet), it just opens the document in the browser.
Is there a way to get it to open directly in Excel? I guess the reason is the file extension*.EXCEL, how could we get the extension to be in excel format (xls)?
We don't want our users to have to do this themself.

Excel output (with graphics)

Hello,
I am using Oracle reports 10g 1.2.0 version.
We need to generate oracle reports in Excel format ("real" Excel, not delimited text) with tabular data and
also graphics.
I used desformat=spreasheet. But is is giving only one worksheet.
I've found the "Output to Excel with Oracle9i Reports"
demo but the Excel template in the demo is very simple and doesn't have graphics.
Then I've found the following:
http://otn.oracle.com/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/examples/excel_output/result/excel.jpg
a) The above site has excel output with multiple worksheets.
which is similar to what we need but I wasn't able to find related source (excel_emp.jsp).
b) Using jsp if we can ahieve multiple worksheets with grapahics, please provide us examples.
c) http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/htdocs/getstart/demonstrations/excel/index.html --This site is not working to find the demo.
Could you please help me in this?
Thank you for any help.

carla,
the example you mentioned uses the JSP web source that is only available in oracle9i reports.
in theory you can create any excel output. it is just a matter of creating the template and then adding the reports tags to populate it with data.
you could then use reports' URL engine to produce files from this output.
there are certainly ways to do it, but they are only available in oracle9i reports (9.0.2 and higher)

philipp

How to display Excel output in browser instead of client desktop

Hi,
Similar to PDF and Text output, Is it possible to display Excel Output In browser itself.
Whenever we try to view the report where the output type is excel, the output opens in Excel Desktop version.
We have a requirement where we need the output to be displayed in browser itself.
I have tried modyfing the Viewer profiles but was not able to get the desired result. We are currently working on E-Business Suite 11g.

Hi,
Its looks like this might be the customization issue please have a look at the OSS Notes 457497 and refer to the questions 2, 3 & 4 may be you can get the idea (Specially 4).
Why are some texts not printed at all?
Answer:
Which texts are printed depends on the Customizing settings of purchasing.
Go to Customizing for purchasing.
Choose "Messages -> Texts for Messages -> Define Texts for <Purchasing Document>". Choose "Print Document <Purchasing Document>". Select "Texts for Document Items" and add a new entry.
You must specify a value for the print sequence in the detailed screen for your new entry.
Let me know in case of any.

Hi Mahi,
Thanks for your response. But i could not understand how can we write wrapper program could you please give some light on this or provide some link it would be helpful for me:-)
I have read that blog for excel limitations but i have more question?
1) What about the negative values?
if any field is displaying negative amount then excel not displaying right value for that:(
2)How can we align header or data?
Do XMLP with EBS provide any solution for formatting in excel?
3) If for the alignment of numeric value we concatenate them with any special character then how can we perform calculation that field?
Here are so many formatting issues do we need to write any code in xml for that?
Please help.
Many Thanks,
Pragati
