hi
while creating flat file u may check for how many fileds did u require and what r they
and check for each attribute for fileds in the screen
so it is compatable for the filed attributes
after the date format is also very important (it should match the SAP date format)
all fileds of data should match with the flat file

How to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM.

how to import a logo from flat file to SAP in SMARTFORM. i need to know whether TIFF format is used and also the full steps.
Thanks,

Hi,
You can not directly use a logo from a file into a Smart form. First you will have to upload it to SAP. This has to be done only once. Once it is imported into SAP then you can use it in smart form. To import a logo to SAP, goto SE78. Open the tree under GRAPHICS. Select the file type and click on the Import (first button on the toolbar, just before delete button). Select the logo file and give it some appropriate name along with description. Select appropriate type of the image and click Continue. Your logo will be uploaded into SAP from a file. Now in your smartform, Create a Graphic Node, give the name of the logo along with other properties. In this way you can import a logo from a flat file into SAP and consequently in a smart form.
Reward points if the answer is helpful.

Data loading from flat file into bw

Hi Experts,
When we load data from flat file into BW the sequence of fields in flat file should be matched with the transfer structure or communication structure?
wid thanX,
arijit

Arijit,
The sequence of fields in a flat file must be the same as this one in the transfer structure.
The comm and tran structures are the same after the first creation of datasource from flat file source system. After that someone could change the sequence in the CS -- if the mapping of fields in transfer rules remains unchanged, then the load is to be succesful.
In case of changing the sequence in TS you'll get either error or wrong load (values to be loaded into some infobjects will go to another ones.)
Best regards,
Eugene

Loading data from flat file into 0EMPLOYEE

Dear,
I want to see the 'monthly change of numbers of employees' of my company in a BW report.
i want to do this by loading data from a dummy flat file into 0EMPLOYEE and afterwards into cube 0PAPA_C02.
i've searched the whole 'help and service sap' websites but nowhere, i could find a usefull user guide.
Could you explain me how this job needs to be done, are there certain steps that need to be taken?
here are a few of my questions:
1: what fields and data do i have to fill in my flat file?
2: how does the time-dependency of master data of employee work?
3: why do you only have to map 0calday and 0employee from infosource 0HR_PA_PA_1 to the corresponding fields of cube 0PAPA_C02?
4: how is the key figure 0HDCNT_VC filled automathically?
(the activation of cube 0PAPA_C02 and its flow is already done.)
or maybe you know a user guide which explains the whole picture and could you send me its link?
thanks a lot in advance,
Julie de Meyer

Hi,
Employee is master data : You need to extarct data every month.Once the extraction is done , you need rto activate to see the results. Otherwise it will display old result.
You can extract data for 0HR_PA_0 and 0HR_PA_1 cubes also. After that you can do the reporting based on this.
You can try some sap standard BI reports .
Headcount is calculated based on employement percentage which is maintained in infotype 0007 (Planned Working Time). If it is 100 then it is considerd as headcount 1.
you can check .

Scheduling Problem for uploading Data from Flat file to SAP

Hi guys,
I am facing a weared problem in uploading some leave records in z table. The code is working fine if we run it through se38 after selecting the file from a shared location from production server which has all the access rights.
This folder lies in the \usr folder of SAP Production.
I have kept all the Flat files in the shared path "
Tis-mum-iz-s1\migration\SAP-INT\leave\" ...
To give u exact directory structure..
Tis-mum-iz-s1 is the Server Name
usr is the SAP System folder used for uploads and downloads
usr |
...-> Migration |
 -> SAP-INT |
 -> leave -> (Flat Files)
Migration folder is shared with all rights.
Obviously, we cannot give shared drive as the variant in the scheduler.
So i use the system path i.e. \usr\sap\tmp\migration\sap-int\leave\ as the variant.
All my other download programs are working fine with this path as a variant...
But my this particular upload program does not work with this path....
I am giving u my code...

Copying TEXT column from flat file into SQL results in empty fields....

I'm copying TEXT column from SQL to Flat file (ragged right fixed width) - DT_TEXT. It copies fine and I''ve checked the output file. Now, while trying to copy the flat file to sql server in another system. I find all the fields are empty.
When I preview the source from flatfile, I see all the entries there. But it copies other fields but the field with DT_TEXT is empty.
This is when I preview
SQL Table output
Any help will be helpful!!!

Hi, I'm not sure If I'm understanding what you're saying. The data got copied from SQL to Flat file. I've double checked the flat file and I see the DT_TEXT data there. The size of file also gives an indication that there's existence of TEXT Data
But, when I copy that data back to sql again (which I can also preview before the load), The DT_TEXT values goes missing. Same when I copy to Excel as CSV or as a Flat file. I don't see text data.
The TEXT data resides on the first output. But when I try to extract to other format from that output, it doesn't come out.
