TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP

Hi all,
I am using FM TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP to upload excel to internal table. I have two date fields in excel. The FM is throwing an error "Enter a valid Date(example, 28.02.2008) ".
I gave date in the excel like this format only. even then am getting the error.Plsss help me..
Points will be rewarded,
thanks in advance,
praveena.

Hi,
U should enter the date in this format only ( MMDDYYYY) . For example, give like 11252007 in ur excel. Dont put any dot or slash in between the date. It will work correctly.
Reward points if helpfil

Error-while executing Standard FM 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'

Hi Gurus,
I'm using Standard FM 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'   ,
while executing i got an Error " Error generating test Frame'
Description:
Error generating the test frame
Message no. FL819
Diagnosis
The system could not generate a syntactically correct test frame for function module TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP. You therefore cannot test the function module using the test environment. You have probably used an ABAP feature in the interface definition that is not yet supported in the test environment.
The error message is:
"OF" expected after "TABLE".
System Response
Procedure
Check whether you can change the interface of the function module so that it is possible to generate the test frame. If this is not possible,you will have to write your own utility for testing the function module.

Problem with date format using TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP

I'm using fm TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP to upload an xls file.
I've the following problem the date in the spreadsheet is 01.01.2010 the result in the internal table after using the fm is 01.jan.2010. What must i do to get 01.01.2010 in the internal table?
My setting in sap for the date format is DD.MM.YYYY

Hi,
What is type and size of your internal table field? Covert your excel column to text field. Now it is of type date i hope.
Best option is, always have the value in excel in YYYYMMDD (SAP standard format) and internal table field as of type sy-datum.
After uploading use WRITE TO statement to a character variable to convert the date as per user settings. Your current logic may not work if the date setting is different.
Thanks,
Vinod.

Incorrect decimal places in function "TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP"

When I upload a excel file into inner table used function "TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP".
The type of inner table field is "P"(decimals 2),and the value of corresponding field in excel is "0.77",but it become "77.00" in inner table after upload.
Then I debug the function "TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP".
After read excel file,the value in temporary table is ".77",and convert to variant which is type p in form "parse_table_line" of include "LTRUXF01".
There isn't note which is solved this problem although I search in SAP's support website long time.
Appreciate your help.
Thanks.

Thank you very much,Pranav.
You are right.
It converted right when the number in excel field is text format,
But I think the function should run well although it's in number format.
Maybe I should use another function to upload txt file next time:)

Hi Gopi,
We can use the Function module TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP to read the Excel file into the internal table. From this internal table you can fill the target internal table.
Do not need to use CALL METHOD cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_upload.
just declare ur internal table with fields use above function module. u dont need to give field separator while uploading data from excell file.

TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP FM is throughing an error

Dear Friends,
I am uploading a xls file into internal table using TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.
The file strusture is as below.
Row1: Customer City
Row 2: Customer City
Row2: 2000001 ABD
My requirement is to skip the first two row details, as they are just the field titles and i need not consider the first two row's.
I should pick the data from Third row onwards which is actual data.
I have to use this TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP FM only.
I have passed the
i_line_header            = 'X'
in the function module it is deleting only one header hower to remove the other header what i have to do , because the FM is throughing an error conversion_failed.
Please help me .
Thanks

Hi,
You can do it as follows:
TYPE-POOLS:truxs.
DATA:li_tab_raw_data TYPE truxs_t_text_data.
DATA: BEGIN OF i_tab OCCURS 0,
       fld1(6) TYPE c,

    i_tab_raw_data             = li_tab_raw_data
    i_filename                 = 'C:\temp\test1_xls.xls'
TABLES
    i_tab_converted_data       = i_tab
EXCEPTIONS
CONVERSION_FAILED          = 1
OTHERS                     = 2

ENDIF.
LOOP AT i_tab.
IF sy-tabix EQ 1 OR sy-tabix EQ 2. "for first 2 rows
    CONTINUE.
ENDIF.
ENDLOOP.
Or you can use following FM
ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
call function 'ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE'
exporting
filename = file
i_begin_col = 1
i_begin_row = 3         "to start from 3rd row

Error in using FM TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP

hi all,
i am using FM 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP ' to upload the excel into my internal table , but i am getting below error -
Error during conversion - field type conflict
The sending and receiving fields have conflicting types. The receiving field has type P. Value BCTR1 was supposed to be transferred to this field, but this conflicts with the type definition for the receiving field.
The incorrect field is field 1 of the receiver structure.
BCTR1 is the value of Material field which has the data type of char18 in the table.
and i have declared my internal table also with the same structure of table.
please help me on this.

TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP getting error, need help!

Good day, everyone!
I am using FM TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP to read in an Excel file. However, I am getting an error, and the error information I'm displaying isn't helping me much. I'm using the widely-found sample code for this FM that is on this forum. Here's my error routine after the FM call:
IF sy-subrc <> 0.
    MESSAGE ID sy-msgid TYPE sy-msgty NUMBER sy-msgno
          WITH sy-msgv1 sy-msgv2 sy-msgv3 sy-msgv4.
ENDIF.
The problem is that this information isn't helpful to me. When I run it, I get this:
"Error during conversion - field type conflict (see long text)"
There are values in the sy-msgv fields, but aside from one value being a value from my Excel spreadsheet, I don't know what the others mean. I've searched and can find no documentation for this FM. Also, I don't know how to "see long text."
Can anyone help? Points awarded for all helpful answers.
Thanks!!

Error generating Function Module 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'

Hi All,
When i am executing the FM 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP' i am getting the error Error generating the test frame.
Can you please tell me how to execute the FM.
Thanks & Regards,
Vivek Agarwal

Hello...
               Iam sending a sample code.
               Hope it will helps U how to deal with FM : TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.
TYPE-POOLS : TRUXS.
TYPES : BEGIN OF TY_TAB,
         F1(10) TYPE C,
         F2(10) TYPE C,
         F3(10) TYPE C,
        END OF TY_TAB.
DATA : WA_TAB TYPE TY_TAB,
       LT_TAB LIKE STANDARD TABLE OF WA_TAB.
DATA : I_TAB_RAW_DATA TYPE TRUXS_T_TEXT_DATA.
DATA : FNAM TYPE IBIPPARMS-PATH.
PARAMETER : P_FNAM TYPE RLGRAP-FILENAME.
AT SELECTION-SCREEN ON VALUE-REQUEST FOR P_FNAM.
CALL FUNCTION 'F4_FILENAME'
IMPORTING
   FILE_NAME           = FNAM
P_FNAM = FNAM.
START-OF-SELECTION.
CALL FUNCTION 'TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP'
EXPORTING
    I_TAB_RAW_DATA             = I_TAB_RAW_DATA
    I_FILENAME                 = FNAM
TABLES
    I_TAB_CONVERTED_DATA       = LT_TAB.
LOOP AT LT_TAB INTO WA_TAB.
WRITE :/ WA_TAB-F1, WA_TAB-F2.
ENDLOOP.
But my suggestion is why cant you use FM : ALSM_EXCEL_TO_INTERNAL_TABLE
instead of TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP.
The performance can be improved much by ALSM... FM.
Thanks and Regards

Use of i_tab_raw_data parameter in FM ''TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP''

Hello Experts,
I have usesd above Fm in my program and passing i_tab_raw_data parameter as blank.
But don't know the reason of passing i_tab_raw_data parameter.
Can some1 suggest why do we need to pass this param / blank......
Thanks,
Anoop Bhandari

Hi,
It is part of the fixed parameter interface of the functions : SAP_CONVERT_TO_*_FORMAT where * can be CSV,XML,TXT,XLS.
It is used only in SAP_CONVERT_TO_TXT_FORMAT.
The parameter interface is kept same for all such FMs to maintain central logic and dynamicity, therefore it is found in SAP_CONVERT_TO_XLS_FORMAT although never used there.

Ashish

FM TEXT_CONVERT_XLS_TO_SAP Code Page

Hello,
I have a problem with above function module.
I am using it for an upload from my laptops hard disc and it is working fine for Office 2003 and 2007 Excel files. From another work place it does not work. The system interprets several characters as CR and instead of the 5 records in the file we got 76 or more. That laptop is connected via Citrix and files can not be uploaded directly from the work place hard drive. But I think the main problem is the code page of the GUI or the GUI version. How can I determine the code page and will it fix the bug.
As alternative I tried method GUI_UPLOAD as well as obsolate FM WS_UPLOAD. Both of them destroy the file also on my laptop.
Is there any idea?
Thank you for your time.
Regards
Norbert

Be careful with CITRIX . Perhaps the Excel language is different from your windows language. CITRIX has a language and Windows another.
In our company we have a problem with the spanish and english languages because Excel has differents decimals separators.
