Urgent - Uploading spreadsheet data

Hi,
Can you point me to a sample application which explains how to upload spreadsheet data into multiple tables?
As an e.g.
Table 1 - City (id, name)
Table 2 - City_Details(city_id, details)
city_id is a foreign key to 'id' in city table
Sample spreadsheet rows:
Row 1: 'Los Angeles' 'A major city in California'
Row 2: 'Sacramento' ' Capital of California'
Thanks,
Vishal

Take a look at thread Re: Loading a CSV file into a table(Vikas Plz)
Put your own logic into the HTMLDB_TOOLS package so it inserts into two tables.

Uploading spreadsheet data into the database

Hi
I want to upload the spreadsheet data into the database through front end...I dont have any idea how to do upload without using the 'utilities' option..Can anyone please help me to do this?
Thanks in advance
Fazila

Hi
I refered the example sent by vikas...but i could not understand..I dont need to specify table name in runtime...my requirement is that I will have the constant table(say MD look up table)...and I will have some data under the column heading( say repid,split name)...
Now I want to import my spreadsheet data which are under the heading repid and split name through my front end application and I have the option whether to 'overwrite' the records or 'append' the new records...after clicking the necessary option..I want to import my spread sheet data into the table defined already...and my another requirement is that I want to check the duplication of data between the spreadsheet and table...If I find the duplicates, I have to omit it and store the remaing details....
Please give me some guidelines to solve this problem....
Thanks in advance

Uploading Spreadsheet data

Has there been any progress on this front?
I've read the previous posts on this topic & there still doesn't seem to an elegant solution short of exposing end-users to the Data Workshop or parsing pasted data from a Text Area (suggested but not documented how to do this).
In my business unit (Finance/Pricing) all serious number crunching is done on complex spreadsheet apps. & important calculated values (like price-points offered to customers) are transferred to an (MS Access) database for monthly & ad-hoc reporting.
At present it is a trivial exercise for me to automate the transfer of calculated values from the spreadsheet onto an MS Access form using VBA. This saves time & reduces transcription errors for end users, & they love this feature.
Our business unit is considering HTML DB as an alternative database to MS ACCESS, but it would be very difficult to persuade management if this also meant more data-entry & the greater possibility of transcription errors by the end users.
Do you know of any Javascript that could copy data out of an open Excel file, using named ranges onto a HTML DB form for saving into tables? or any other straightforward way to implement end-user transfer of values calculated in a spreadsheet into HTML DB?

Asim,
HTML DB currently requires developer privileges to use its spreadsheet loading capabilities. There are example available in the HTML DB Studio (http://htmldb.oracle.com/studio) however that may help you build your own data loading screens.
See for example:

Upload spreadsheet data

Dear All,
I've tried to implement this how to
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_create_upload_spreadsheet_form.html
it works grat but when the data to cut/paste in the filed gets too much bigger I end with some ORA-06502: PL/SQL: error character string too small. I think this could be a limitation of the varchar2 datatype . How can I overcome this limit ?
Any ideas would be appreciated
Thank you so much !
Dario

I guess the next logical step would be modify the example and use a LONG datatype. It would be interesting to see if this worked....

Measure Formulae for Uploadable and Data collection report

Hi,
I have query related to application of measure Formula for Uploadable and Data collection report.
Consider a scenario where i use a MDX query to create a data collection report and I map these columns from these reports to an rowsource using a loader file. Can I use measure formula feature like onchange to work with Uploadable and Data colection reports such that changes to any one column should take effect in another column.
Regrads,
Wesley

Wesley,
IOP uploadable reports are used for sending data to the server in batch. They are coupled to the IOP model via a rowsource. You have a lot of flexibility with the spreadsheet you build for staging the upload. It's really just a function of how crafty you are with vb. Cascading changes from one column to another can be easily accomplished this way.
Onchange formulas are for something else. They are part of the model definition and are used for describing how to cascade changes between IOP data blocks.

Please send detail steps for uploading legacy data

Hi friends,
please send detail steps for uploading legacy data
Thanking u in advance,
Diwa.

HI U CAN USE LSMW TO UPLOAD LEGACY DATA
LSMW is used for migrating data from a legacy system to SAP system, or from one SAP system to another.
Apart from standard batch/direct input and recordings, BAPI and IDocs are available as additional import methods for processing the legacy data.
The LSMW comprises the following main steps:
Read data (legacy data in spreadsheet tables and/or sequential files).
Convert data (from the source into the target format).
Import data (to the database used by the R/3 application.
But, before these steps, you need to perform following steps :
Define source structure : structure of data in the source file.
Define target structure : structure of SAP that receives data.
Field mapping: Mapping between the source and target structure with conversions, if any.
Specify file: location of the source file
Of all the methods used for data migration like BDC, LSMW , Call Transaction which one is used most of the time?
How is the decision made which method should be followed? What is the procedure followed for this analysis?
All the 3 methods are used to migrate data. Selection of these methods depends on the scenario, amount of data need to transfer. LSMW is a ready tool provided by SAP and you have to follow some 17 steps to migrate master data. While in BDCs Session method is the better choice because of some advantages over call transaction. But call transaction is also very useful to do immediate updation of small amout of data. (In call transaction developer has to handle errors).
SO Bottom line is make choice of these methods based of real time requirements.
These methods are chosen completely based on situation you are in. Direct input method is not available for all scenario, else, they are the simplest ones. In batch input method ,you need to do recording for the transaction concerned. Similarly, IDoc, and BAPI are there, and use of these need to be decided based on the requirement.
Try to go through the some material on these four methods, and implement them. You will then have a fair idea about when to use which.
LSMW Steps For Data Migration
How to develop a lsmw for data migration for va01 or xk01 transaction?
You can create lsmw for data migration as follows (using session method):
Example for xk01 (create vendor)
Initially there will be 20 steps but after processing 1 step it will reduced to 14 for session method.
1. TCode : LSMW.
2. Enter Project name, sub project name and object name.
    Execute.
3. Maintain object attributes.
    Execute
    select Batch Input recording
    goto->Recording overview
    create
    recording name.
    enter transaction code.
    start recording
    do recording as per ur choice.
    save + back.
    enter recording name in lsmw screen.
    save + back
Now there will be 14 steps.
2. MAINTAIN SOURCE STRUCTURES.
    Here you have to enter the name of internal table.
    display change
    create
    save + back
3. MAINTAIN SOURCE FIELDS.
    display change
    select structure
    source_fields->copy fields.
    a dialogue window will come .
    select -> from data file

Issue when uploading Sales data from DSO to Cube.

Dear All,
I have an issue when I am uploading Sales data from DSO to Cube. I am using BI 7.0 and I have uploaded all sales document level data to my DSO. Then I use a transformation rule to calculate the Sales Value when I am doing DTP to cube. Cube has customer wise aggregation data.
In DSO I have NetPrice(KF) and Delivered_QTY(KF). I do a simple multiplication routine in the transformation from DSO to Cube.
RESULT = SOURCE_FIELDS-NET_PRICE * SOURCE_FIELDS-DLV_QTY .
At the moment I use Active Table(With out Archive) on the DSO to get the data since this is my first load.
Issue is that the figure (Sales Value) in the cube is incorrect. I am getting a very large values which is impossible.
Can someone please help me.
Shanka

Hi,
are you sure that cube has customer wise aggregated data..since it will always aggregate the values of the key figures for the same set of characters...
did you checked the values for the key figures as well and if even they are inflated or is the problem with this key figure only.
During the data load the records may aggregates first for the same values of characters and then multiplication will be happening....if that is the case then you may have to multiply the values before storing it in the data package and then let it aggregate....can be achived through start routine...
but first verify if other key figures are also having the same issue.
Thanks

What is the Tcodes for Uploading of data using BDC & CATT

PP members:
I was going through the cutover activities , and what I understood is we transfer all the legacy system data into SAP before going live
The data upload follows certain steps (depends on the organizational design load strategies)
First we upload all the master data ( material master, BOM, W/C's & Routings)
Then the transaction data ( Ideally speaking, there should no open orders i.e. WIP as on the day of cutoff )
If the WIP (Work in Process) is unavoidable then the materials consumed shall be treated as materials of the previous stage and necessary adjustments shall be made after cutover day
At this point, I could not able to understand what does the author mean materials of the previous stage
Now comming to the uploading of data into SAP from legacy system, we use tools like LSMW, CATT & BDC
Is it a must to use only LSMW tool to upload master data or any other upload tools are fine
Lastly,. I am not sure about the Tcode of CATT & BDC
Summary of the questions:
1.What does the author mean material of previous stage, for WIP materials during cutover activities
2. Is it mandatory to use only LSMW tool for uploading for master data
3. What are the Tcodes for upload tools CATT & BDC ?
Thanks for your time
Suren R

Dear,
1.What does the author mean material of previous stage, for WIP materials during cutover activities - as i understood, what is the stage of material..like it must have gone through 2 work centers and other 2 is left. i.e. you need to create Production order with only 2 operation as other 2 is already over. - usually it is done in such a way that we will create Production order and confirm till 2 operations and WIp is calculated so thatb FI will tally the books in SAP and lagacy.
2. Is it mandatory to use only LSMW tool for uploading for master data - no you can use any tool as required and suits yr requirement
3. What are the Tcodes for upload tools CATT & BDC- BDC through a prog in SE38. CATT through - SCEM.

Infocube was not uploaded with data in BI 7

Dear One's,
Iam trying to upload data from flat file to info cube. It was successfull even in infocube. But contents of infocube does not shows PRICE key figure values, it is showing only MAT_KEY values uploaded successfully. what could be the reason?
Is it necessary to create a flat file with 0CURRENCY unit chara. to support PRICE ?
And also while DTP is scheduled under processing tab it show only PSA rest all were disabled then how can it upload into data target?
Kindly provide me with solution for the above situation.
Thanks,
Raj

Dear One's
Thanks for your replies, but what Iam facing is let me explain -
I have to upload only 2 infoobjects data i.e MAT_KEY [cara.] and PRICE [keyfig] into infocube. Now tell me what are all the files should be entered into the flat file?
and how can I enter USD price and INR prices values without 0CURRENCY?
While running DTP between DS & Datatarget Iam getting only to PSA under processing tab if Iam correct.
Kindly do the needful
Thanks,
Raj
