Upload data eCATT in ECC6 vs 4.7

HI There,
I uploaded MM data in ECC6 before by using CATT (record scripts and load in configuration) but yesterday I was using someone's 4.7 IDES and surprisingly stuck.
Scenario:
In Ecc6
After recording script, creat test configuration and on variants, put file path on 'mode'-> 'external variants' then 'edit' -> 'variants' ->'download' so you have the format etc.
In 4.7 IDES
After recording script, creat test configuration and on variants, Problem! no where to see 'mode', 'external variants' and 'edit' -> 'cancel' only.
Question:
Is it not possible in 4.7? or just I missed some setting in that 4.7 IDES?
Thank you very much.
KC

well, checked help again, looks like direct external variant is not possible in 4.7, will try XML download n upload.

Which one is better for uploading data LSMW or ECATT ?

I am going to implement my product in customer place.which tool I can use for uploading data.ECATT or LSMW whch one is better to upload master data and transaction data ,which one is user friendly?kindly guide me on this.

Hello TJK,
LSMW and eCATT has different functionalitites and different advantages, but common thing is they are used for data upload.
eCATT is mainly used as a testing tool for follow-on transactions i.e. Purchase Requisition, Purchase order, Goods Receipt etc.
Where as LSMW is used for Master data (Materials, Customer, Vendor, BOM, Inforecord etc) and some of the transactions data (Purchase order, purchase requisition)
There are many standard objects are available in LSMW so most of the consultants use LSMW, but again depends on the requirement.
This will help to understand the basics of eCATT.

and here it is for LSMW

Hope this will help.

Best practice to upload data for Appraisals: BDC, LSMW or functional module

Hi,
I have heard that BDC and LSMW do not work for data upload in appraisals. Is it true?
Can we use ECATT or SECATT to upload data in appraisals?
I somewhere got the information that functional modules
HRHAP_DOCUMENT_PREPARE
HRHAP_DOC_UPDATE_BODY_AND_SAVE
HRHAP_DOCUMENT_CREATE
are used to upload the data for appraisals?
Many of my earlier clients found it very hectic to create appraisal templates every year (PHAP_CREATE). They needed something automated for this. I managed to suggest them manual upload or SECATT, but I am not sure if BDC/LSMW work for this.
Can somebody throw some light on this?
Best regards,
Veera Sasidhar Jangam

Hi,
You need to write a code for same and use function modules available as those does direct updates to database.
If client is not bothered about look and feel during dataload or do not care about display infotypes during data updates then use above method otherwise BDC needs to be written with screen control programming in it.

DB Connect Load - "Unknow error while uploading data from the DB Table"

Hi Experts,
We have our BI7 system connected to Oracle DB based third party tool. The loads are performing quite well in DEV environment.
I would like to know, how we transport DB Connect datasources to Quality systems? Any different process to be followed for DB Connect datasources?
At present the connections between BI Quality and the third party quality systems are established. We transported the DataSource from BI DEV system to BI quality system, but on trigerring an infopackage we are not able to perform loads. It prompts - "Unknow error while uploading data from the DB Table".
Also on comparing the DataSources in DEV system and Quality system there are no fields in "Proposal" tab of datasource in Quality system. Also I cannot change or activate Datasource in Quality system as we dont have change access in quality.
Please advice.
Thanks,
Abhijit

Hi,
Sorry for bumping an old thread ....
Did this issue get ever get resolved?
I am facing the same one. The loads work successfully in Dev. The transport for DBConnect DS also moved in successfully.
One strange this is that DB User for dev did not automatically change to db user from quality when I transported the DBConnect datasource. DBCon DS still shows me the DB User from Dev in Quality system
I get "Unknown Error" whenever I trigger the data package.

Not able to Upload data in Demand Planning data view

Hi
I am trying to upload a csv file in to Demand planning interactive planning through " Upload Data " functionality
First I exported data from interactive planning , updated some data in file and again trying to upload same file.
I am getting following error
File cannot be uploaded
Message no. /SAPAPO/SDP_UPLOAD009
Diagnosis
File has no technical information or incorrect technical information.
Procedure
Save the file again locally. Make sure that the file has the technical information.
Could u please suggest what needs to be done
Thanks and regards,
Nitin Lavhe

Hello,
For using the upload data functionality from interactive planning grid, you need to first download the data. While downloading the data, please check the check box for "Prepare the file for upload at later time", and then select the option of putting the technical setting into the file or into the system. Either way is okay. Then try uploading the same file.
This should solve your problem.
Thank you.

How to upload data from flat to ztables with in the same client by idocs

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement in IDOCS, I need to create a custom IDOC .I am working on IDES 4.6c. The reqirement is , there are ztables with header and item data. say for example Authors and Books. I need to upload data from flat file which is available in presentation server of the same client, which will updated in ztables by using idocs. For this i need to do ale settings also. The client is 800. There is no other client available. With in the same client i need to do the above stuff.
For this requirement how to approach (step by step) to accomplish.
Thanks in Advance.

J.S.Varma

Hi,
This is the procedure.
create segments using we31. don't forget to relaese it
create idoc using above segments using we30 don't forget to relaese it
create message type using we81
create function module to upload data using se37
maintain process code using we42
create partner profiles we20.
In the fm module itself write the code for downloading the data from presentation server by GUI_DOWNLOAD.
Then update the database tables directly by insrt through other internal table in the same client itself.

PROBLEM Creating a Sample Application from Uploaded Data - ENDECA 3.1

Good morning.
I'm installing OEID 3.1 and y have many problems.
One is when i want to créate a Sample Application from Uploaded Data following "InfoDiscGettingStarted.pdf"
I have the next error message:
"Task execution failed for workflow ID 1. Task execution failes for workflow ID 1."
Does anyone know which is due to this error?
Thank you very much.
Pd: Excuse me for my english

BINGO !
works like a charm
I used this at compReady. Loads all the animated thumbnails with image, jersey number and full name.
$.getJSON('images/profiles.json', function(json)
 sym.getComposition().getStage().setVariable('data', eval(json));
 var data = sym.getComposition().getStage().getVariable('data');
 for ( i = 1 ; i < 17; i++){
 sym.getSymbol("thumb"+[i]).$("thumb1").css("background-image","url("+data.player[i].thumb +")");
 sym.getSymbol("thumb"+[i]).$("j_num").html(data.player[i].j_num);
 sym.getSymbol("thumb"+[i]).$("p_name").html((data.player[i].f_name)+" "+(data.player[i ].l_name));
sym.$("Stage").css({"margin-left":"auto","margin-right":"auto"});
and this on all the "display on click" profile sheets. Right now just gets the larger player pic but will get all the other "fields" also when complete
var i = 1 // this var identifies the player
var data = sym.getComposition().getStage().getVariable('data');
sym.$("player_image").css("background-image","url("+data.player[i].image+")");
sym.play("profile" + [i]);
Works perfect. Now I just have to add all the other fields to the profile sheets and presto...
thanks again

Upload data from excel to oracle table

Hi,
if i'm user and using an application and i want to upload data from excel to oracle table on button click . Is it possible by using sql loader.
If yes then please clarify it .
is it possible from client end.
thanks
kam

Yes it is possible using SQL*LDR, External tables and ORCL Export Utility. Though I didn't try Export Utility to load the external files.
SQLLdr sysntax:
Create a control file.
It looks like this
Load data
Infile 'source.dat'
Into Table tablename
Fields terminated by ',' optionally enclosed by '"'
{code}
then use sqlldr command from your OS.
{code}
sqlldr userid/password@sid control = filename.ctl, data = source.dat, log = logname.log, bad = badname.log, discard = discardname.discard
{code}
