Trouble Loading a flat file into BPS using a Web Browser, Please help ?

Hi Gurus,
I'm in BW 3.5.
I did everything and also followed the How to .. paper to upload a flat file into BPS tran cube via a Web browser.
I created a Web Browser and generated a BSP application. When I run the BSP application I get the following error:
"The generated data is not contained in the selection condition" UPC204
The error message also says:
"The error message can appear when you use a planning function to generate data that is outside the data range specified by the selection conditions of the planning package"
When I save the variables that I select in the web interface they are getting saved in a table(UPC_VAR_CHA_ACT), but somehow the BSP application cannot look into those values, which I think is the cause of above issue.
Please help.
Venkat

Hi,
This type of error is quite common in BPS operations. This generally happens due to some missing values in the restriction of the planning levels and the packages.
The error message is "The generated data is not contained in the selection condition" UPC204
Check in the planning level and the package, all the restrictions that have been defined and verify whether the values which are getting uploaded through the flat file are present in the election condition of the level or in the package.
Please award points if helpful.

Upload multiple excel files into tables using APEX

Hi folks,
I'm wondering if anyone has ever uploaded multiple .csv files simultaniously and store the data into the database using APEX XE before.
I can browse for a single file, and execute that okay and a good example of doing that can be found at http://advait.wordpress.com/2008/05/21/uploading-excel-sheet-using-oracle-application-express-apex/
This works fine when the user browses to a specific file on their network and then uploads the data from that one file.
However I need the ability to 'grab' every file in a specific directory one after the other to process rather than having to specify which one to load everytime, and wondered if anyone has come across this before.
Many thanks
Graham.

Just for completeness ...
Got this to work, but it's a pl/sql issue as opposed to an APEX issue.
Anyway, if anyone needs to have the ability to read multiple files then a quick easy way to do it (as lomg as they know the file names that will be read), is to create a directory on the database which points to the actual harddrive on your PC, then create a table (called an external table) and read from that external table as if it was an actual database table ...
1 - Log on as sys and grant CREATE ANY DIRECTORY to whatever user you are logging in as (assuming you are not using sys to create apps)
2 - Create a directory e.g....CREATE OR REPLACE DIRECTORY GB_TEST AS 'c:\gbtest';
3 - Create an external table as ...
CREATE TABLE gb_test
(file_name varchar2(10),
rec_date date
rec_name VARCHAR2(20),
rec_age number,
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL
TYPE ORACLE_LOADER
DEFAULT DIRECTORY GB_TEST
ACCESS PARAMETERS
RECORDS DELIMITED BY NEWLINE
FIELDS TERMINATED BY ','
LOCATION ('data1.csv','data2.csv','data3.csv','data4.csv')
PARALLEL 5
REJECT LIMIT 20000;
That's it then ...
select * from gb_test
where file_name = 'xxx'
will return all the data where the file_name = 'xxx'
very easy to use.

Uploading a flat file into Oracle

Hello guys
Can somebody please help me. I've got a flat file that i want to read into oracle via UTL Package. I can read the file successfully if I manually replace the dots with underscores. But when I receive the file, before I upload it into Oracle, it comes in with dots on the file name. eg. The file looks like this: 'IS.DIM16.EFTS.GG24.INTAUD.TEST_20090219105728' then I have to manually replace the dots with underscores to make the file look like this: 'IS_DIM16_EFTS_GG24_INTAUD.TEST_20090219105728'.
I don't want to change it manually. Is there a way to replace the dots with underscores before I read the file? Or is the a way to make Oracle read the dots? I've tried uploading the file with the dots but it gives me this error:
ORA-29283: invalid file operation.
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

When i try this, i don't get any error. Can you be more specific ? Code , Expample , OS, version ....
DECLARE
v_handle utl_file.file_type;
BEGIN
v_handle:= utl_file.fopen ('/enspac03/output/ao/in','IS.DIM16.EFTS.GG24.INTAUD.TEST_20090219105728','r');
dbms_output.put_line ('Open');
utl_file.fclose(v_handle);
END;

How to allow users to upload a flat file to BW

Hi All,
For a planning application I would like to permit our users to upload a flat file on their local desktop to the infopackage and execute the load.
We would like to empower the users to prepare and upload their flat files into BW from their desktop without asking for BW support.
Please let me know if any of you have followed this approach.
Thanks
Karen

Hi,
The possible steps..
1. Create a small program and then give
Selection Screen:
FIle name : -
Note: Ask users give always same file name i.e. xyz.csv
Once user will give file name and execute it then file will save in Application Server (You fix the path like /usr/sap/BI1/DVEBMGS00/work, you create seperate folder in Application server)
2. Create a small Program with is using Events..
REPORT ZTEST_EV.
DATA: EVENTID LIKE TBTCJOB-EVENTID.
DATA: EVENTPARM LIKE TBTCJOB-EVENTPARM.
      EVENTID = 'ZEVENT1'.
      EVENTPARM = 'ZEVENTPARAM'.
CALL FUNCTION 'RSSM_EVENT_RAISE'
          EXPORTING
            I_EVENTID                         = EVENTID
            I_EVENTPARM                  = EVENTPARM
          EXCEPTIONS
           BAD_EVENTID                            = 1
           EVENTID_DOES_NOT_EXIST       = 2
           EVENTID_MISSING                     = 3
           RAISE_FAILED                           = 4
           OTHERS                                    = 5
        IF SY-SUBRC <> 0.
                 MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
                 WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
        ENDIF.
3. Once user will upload the file in Step 1, then he need to run this Program,.
4. You craetea Process Chain using this Event, then once User will run this program then the Data Loads will happen through Process Chain.
Note: Eventhough this is lengthy process, it is protected 100%, because we are not giving any access to User, we just given reports/programs to execute.

How can I do this?
Regards,

hi,
declare two internal table with structur of your tables.
your flat files should be .txt files.
now make use of GUI_UPLOAD function module to upload your flatfile into internal tables.
CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'
    EXPORTING
      filename            = 'c:\file1.txt'
      has_field_separator = 'X'
    TABLES
      data_tab            = itab1
    EXCEPTIONS
      OTHERS              = 1.
use this function twice for two tables.
then loop them individually and make use of insert command.

Using Web Upload for Flat File in BW-BPS 3.5 Stack 13

Hi,
I am attempting to implement the "How To Guide Load a Flat File into BW-BPS Using a Web Browser" (the 7/2005 version). However, certain BSP files named in the How to Guide, such as "JS.htm" and "checkbrowser.htm" do not exist in my generated BSP application. We are on BW-BPS version 3.5 Stack 13. Is this guide compatible with this BW version?
Thanks,
Cynara
(Note: I have already attempted to correct the incompatibilities by changing the statement <%@include file="js.htm" %> to <%@include file="JS3.htm" %> and eliminating the code <%@include file="checkbrowser.htm" %>. However, I still get the JS3.htm error "field R_PAGE is unknown".)

Hi Cynara,
I try to do the same.
I left out those both lines and also the line concerning the style.
<link type="text/css" href="<%= cstyle %>" rel="stylesheet">
The upload worked then so far except that no data was written into the cube. Even if I press save button nothing happens.
Any ideas?
Regards,
Juergen

Uregnt - How to Load Flat File into BW-BPS using Web Browser

Hello,
We have followed the 'How to Load Flat File into BW-BPS using Web Browser' guide to build BSP web front-end to upload flat file. Everything works great but we have a requirement to populate the Planning Area Variables based on BSP drop down list with values. Does anyone know how to do this? We have the BSP coded with drop down list all we need to do now is populate variables. We can populate the variables through the planning level (hardcoded) but we need to populate them through the web interface.
Thanks,
Gary

Hello Gary,
We have acheived the desired result by not too a clean method but it works for us.
What we have done is, we have the link to load file in a page where the variables can be input. The user would then have the option to choose the link to load a file for the layout in that page.
By entering the variable values in the page, we are able to read the variables for the file input directly in the load program.
Maybe this approach might help.

I successfully loaded above flat file in to BPS cube and it dispalyed in the layout also.
But users are requesting to load flatfile in the below format

XXXXX              Blank                       100           800                                                   900
Is it possible to load a flat file like this
They wants load a single row instead of 13 rows for each costelement
How to do this. Please suggest me if anybody accorss this requirment.
In the infocube we have got only one Info object 0FISCPER3(Posting period) and one 0AMOUNT(Amount)
do we need 13 Infobjects for each posting period and amount.
Is there any possiblity we can implement any user exit which we use in BEX Quer's
Please share your ideas on this.
Thanks in advance
Best regards
SS

Hi,
There are 2 ways to do this.
One is to change the structure of the cube to have 12 key figures for the 12 posting periods.
Another way is to write an ABAP Function Module to fetch the values from each record based on the posting period and store it in the cube for the corresponding characteristic. This way, you dont have to change the structure of the cube.
If this particular cube is not used anywhere else, I would suggest to change the structure itself.
Hope this helps.

Unsorted Flat File into IDoc with multiple use of nodes

Hi Experts!
I am facing a little problem. I have a source flat file for a classification where some fields appear several times.
My source flat file looks like this:
item1; field1a
item2; fieldA
item3; fieldxa
item1; field1b
as you can see the item1 exists twice (further appearances are also possible).
Now i have to map the flat file into an IDoc structure
My target IDoc looks like this
Header
-- node1
attribute1
-- node2
the "field1a" and "field1b" has to be mapped into the "attribute1" in "node1". "node1" has to be duplicated for each time an "item1" appears (.. and if item2, item3 etc. appears twice, three ... four times...).
So how can i reach it that the node1 will be duplicated automatically when an item appears twice or more times? I know that it could be possible to work with "SplitByValue"... but for this i need all item1 in an straight order.... but i dont have them in a correct order.
I am looking forward to your suggestions.
Thank you in advance.
Udo

Complex sorting is not or not easy possible with the grafical mapping tool.
Use a sequence mapping. The first mapping is a simple XSLT which does the sort. The second mapping works as usual.
I have an example XSLT which I used for a different purpose:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
<xsl:template match="/">
    <ORDERLIST>
      <xsl:for-each select="ORDERLIST/ITEM">
        <xsl:sort select="ID"/>
        <xsl:copy-of select="."/>
      </xsl:for-each>
    </ORDERLIST>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

How to upload a file into server using j2ee jsp and servlet with bean?

How to upload a file into server using j2ee jsp and servlet with bean? Please give me the reference or url about how to do that. If related to struts is more suitable.
Anyone help me please!

u don't need j2ee and struts to do file uploading. An example is as such
in JSP. u use the <input> file tag like
<input type="file"....>You need a bean to capture the file contents like
class FileUploadObj {
    private FormFile srcFile;
    private byte[] fileContent;
    // all the getter and setter methods
}Then in the servlet, you process the file for uploading
    * The following loads the uploaded binary data into a byte Array.
    FileUploadObj form = new FileUploadObj();
    byte[] byteArr = null;
    if (form.signFile != null) {
        int filesize = form.srcFile.getFileSize();
        byteArr = new byte[filesize];
        ByteArrayInputStream bytein = new ByteArrayInputStream (form.srcFile.getFileData());
        bytein.read(byteArr);
        bytein.close();
        form.setFileContent(byteArr);
