Time recording interface - file to RFC

Hi all,
I am trying a file to RFC scenario for a time recording interface. The time recording machine will generate flat files with the following fields
empno, yyyymmdd, hhmmss, flag for check-in and check-out , terminal id
I wanna know which BAPI can be used for the RFC receiver?
what is the infotype for time recording?

    Sending spool list to multiple users, while creating background job

    To send spool list to multiple users while defining background job via trans. SM36, create a distribution list. This distribution list will contain the addresses of multiple users.
    Code
    To create distribution list: Call transaction SO01 (SAP office: Inbox). Click on the Distribution Lists button on the tool bar and click Create Icon. Enter a name for your distribution list, say, Test_Grp and fill in other relevant details.
    Click on the Distribution list content Tab and enter the addresses of multiple users. Check on the Express check box to send documents to the recipients as an express message.
    Now while creating background job for your program via SM36, enter the distribution list name (Test_Grp) when you click the Spool list recipient button. This will enable the spool list to be sent to multiple users.

  • File to RFC with multiple records using BPM Scenario Error...!!!

    Hello Guru's,
      I have done the File to RFC with multiple records using BPM scenario as per the Materiel available in the sdn.sap. This involves BAPI (BAPI_MATERIEL_AVAILABILITY). I have done exactly the same what is their in the materiel. SXI_CACHE is also giving return value " 0 ". File is getting deleted from the source directory, but no file in target directory. SXMB_MONI is also showing no error (black Flag). BPM is also error free. Checked the interfaces also.
    Can any one tell me what mistake would i have done.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    In message mapping, change the occurrence of the RFC to be 0 to unbounded.
    Map the root node of the file xml structure to the RFC's root node.
    In the interface mapping after selecting the source and the target message interface,change the occurrence of the target interface to 0 to unbounded i.e.RFC .
    While doing the interface determination, you will find an option called Enhanced / Extended  Select this and then select the Interface mapping.
    Thanks

  • Mac Book Pro 13" LPTP-Photo Booth Recorded Video File won't find my video/movie that I recently recorded from Sun 9-1-13. Is there a way I can retrieve the files under the Time Machine or will I need to download something for iPhoto Booth?

    I have been having the most difficult times with the use of iPhoto Booth for recording movie files of church services. It seems if I make a rename on the files, for some odd reason, I cannot find it in any of my Files Folders in Finder. I need to know is there a more simple way to retrieve movie files thru iPhoto Booth or is there something I may can download to fix this issue? Also, is there a way the videos can be flipped around to not a mirror image, but to a reverse camera? Please anyone who recognizes this problem, contact me ASAP. Thank you for your support!

    You used the data.  Verizon can not see what it was sued for.  However your phone can see whats apps used the data.  go to settings-data usage- there will be a place that says data usage cycle.  line the dates up with your cycle.  then there will be a bar graph below that   extend bother white bars one all the way to the left and one all the way to the right.  after those are extended below that will be a list of apps,  there should be one that used over 2 gb and that will show you what app used that data in her purse

  • Problem in file to RFC Asynch interface.

    Dear Experts,
              One interface is there in Production environment that " file to RFC " receiver is SAP CRM system through BAPIs. frequency is daily one file from ftp to CRM system. One day file is getting updated in CRM properly, one day not getting updated like this way it is happening regularly. In sxmb_moni of PI system showing successfully processed. In sxmb_moni of CRM system no messages appearing whether successfully processed messages as well as failures. RFC connections also be good and in PI communication channel monitoring also showing successful.
    In this case what i have to do? Kindly suggest me.
    Thanks & Regards,

    Hari,
    If that is the case then cancel all the messages and also once do the full cache refresh with the following URL

    Hi Prakasu,
    I am using PI 7.1 version .
    When I opened SMICM there I am finding the HTTP Port as 52000.and the BS at SLD are also using the same Port in URL..
    And when i verified with the Basis they confirmed that Exchange profile is set correctly.
    But My file adapter is still not able to send the data to IS.
    Than I configured a scenario file to file without IR object and in this case data is coming to IS and it is succesfull also.
    what is the reason that in this case file adapter not able to push the data to IS.
    I used File adapter with NFS protocol.

  • File to RFC/IDOC with a set of business rules applied on every record

    Hi experts,
    i have a scenario where the following happens
    checks need to be performed
    1. Technical validations on the file picked up (Can be done through java programs)
    2. Business rules to be applied on every record (Am not sure if this can be done in PI)  Sample business rules - record id already present in the SAP system, check if some manadatory fields are missing in the record etc..quite a lot to be applied
    I assume we use the File>PI>IDOC/RFC scenario for this..
    However am not sure on how we apply the complex business rules on every record in file using PI.
    Any suggestions??

  • File-to-file or File-to-RFC for Automatic PO creation and GR creation

    Hi,
    We are on XI 3.0 and the following has been put to me:
    We will receive a .CSV file from FTP server, into XI and then need to create Purchase Orders followed by the Goods Receipt documents in R/3 based on the incoming data.
    Further to this, the requirement is to give a log of the successfule and failed PO + GR document summary to the business.
    The programme in R/3 will compare the incoming file nmame with archived files already processed and will reject any files with duplicate names.
    I was suggesting to go with the file to RFC in R/3 whereby we can have a Z shell BAPI to include the standard BAPI for PO creation and GR creation. This Z code can then be extended to email the log to the business of which records were successfully created and which failed.
    However, I am stumped as to how can I make the file duplication comparison on R/3 as the incoming file will also be stored on R/3 archive somewhere.
    Can this be made when the BAPI is called in XI?
    I can configure alerts when the BAPI is mapped from incoming file for that interface.
    What was suggested also was to pick up the CSV file and thow it as it is in R/3 and then the Z code can go through it and create the PO and GR objects. However, then it does not make much sense to use XI as the middleware platform.
    Please advice.
    Regards,
    Arcahna

    Hi Archana,

  • To transfer time events from external time recording system to sap r/3

    hi all,
          I have a task to make an interface program between external time recording and sap r/3, and then to transfer the time events from that external system to sap system with the help of an rfc, i have got some information like the data first has to be transferred to the table CC1TEV and then from this table the data will be uploaded to 2011 infotype with the help of a standard program, but i am unable to find a solution for making the interface program and the RFC or BAPI which will transfer the records from external system.
        if anybody has any information on this plz help me out to solve this problem.

    Which recorgding terminals using to capture time events? They should have give some guidelines about this?

  • Flat File-to-RFC question, multiple RFC calls for one file.

    Hi guys,
    I'm quite new to XI / PI and I have a question regarding a File-to-RFC scenario we're trying in NW PI 7.1.
    We have a flat file which has two lines with two fields each, let's take this as an example :
    001,001
    002,002
    The files needs to be converted to XML and then transferred to the RFC program which will update a table with the values above.
    In the ESR I've created 3 data types (z_row1,z_record1 and z_fileinput1), 1 message type (z_file2rfc_ob_mt), 1 message mapping (z_file2rfc_mm), 2 Service Interface (z_file2rfc_ob_si and z_file2rfc_ib_ztestpi) and 1 operation mapping (z_file2rfc_om).
    In the Integration Builder (ID) I've created everything required (The sender and receiver communication channels, sender and receiver agreement, receiver determination and interface mapping).
    We're also using content conversion to convert the flat file to XML, this does seem to work because I see all the lines/field in the message when it gets into PI. The problem is that the RFC can only accept two fields at a time and only the first line gets updated. I see that only the first line gets sent to the RFC.
    How can I make the RFC call for each and every line ?
    Thanks !!

    Create the RFC with table, which takes multiple lineitem as input and update the table in single call.
    If you want response back then call RFC as synchrounous else in Asynchrounous mode.
    By doing this in single call it will update the complete table.

    data rec2
    Trailer record..
    The parameters are used in File content conversion:
    Recordset Name : Header,item
