WITH LSMW USING BATCH INPUT/DIRECT INPUT/BAPI/IDOCS

IN WHAT SCENARIOS CAN WE USE BATCH INPUT/DIRECT INPUT/BAPI/IDOCS WITH LSMW.WHICH IS THE BEST ONE.PLEASE TELL ME THE SCENARIOS OF USAGE.

It really depends on what you are doing.  There are a lot of "standard" LSMW objects for different business objects, for example, there is a std object for Creating Material Masters, in this case, it is a direct input program. So, the best choice here would be to use the standard program which has been provided, it just so happens that it is a direct input program.  Creating Bill of Materials is another one, but this one is a batch input program, so you have no choice but to go with that.  Of course if there is a BAPI for your business object that would be the next best thing, if a standard object does not exists.

    Batch Input Session:
    - It is a sequence of transactions, which is generated when user run a particular program. 
    - It contains the accounting documents that are to be created. The SAP system stores these transactions until you decide to process them online. 
    - It does not update transaction figures until the session has been processed.  Using this technique, you can transfer large amounts of data to the SAP system in a short time.
    Three processing modes of executing Batch Input Session :-
    (1) Run Visibly : You can correct faulty transactions online & work step-by-step through  the transactions not yet executed. 
    (2) Display Errors only : You can correct faulty transactions online.   Transactions not yet executed, but without error, run in the background.
    (3) Run in Background : Recommended by SAP.

  • Problem in lsmw for purchase order (direct input)

    hi friends,
    i am trying to upload po using lsmw by direct input method.
    only problem is it is not taking delivery date properly.
    at the end error message is 'plz enter valid delivery date'.
    can any one tell me why it is happning.
    thanks
    sonu

    Check the format of your date and check the format expected.
    sometimes you can have diff like YYYYMMDD, MM.DD.YYYY,...
    Look at the converted data.
    Hope this helps,

  • Changes in standard input/direct input-lsmw

    hi,
    lsmw uses standard program to copy customer data or vendor data, but there might be a case when the tables..i.e. vendor and customer data are not same,
    some field might be added and some might be deleted..
    how do v go about that...
    do v need to make some changes to the standard program....
    if so, then what are the changes that need to be made...
    also is there anyother method to migrate data.
    thanx in advance

    generally when some fields are added to the standard tables, they are appended at the end. so basically it will not affect the standard program flow.
    If you are facing any specific problem, please put it down.

  • LSMW - Direct Input

    Hi Pals,
    We are using the standard direct input pgm <b>RCSBI010</b> for creation on BOMs using an LSMW. However, when we are giving multiple BOM components in our file for a single header, each component is getting created separately. But this is not the case that we want. We want all the BOM components given in the file for a single header to be created for a single BOM itself. We are using the transaction CS01 to acheive this.
    When I checked the LSMW, the target field for this BOM COMPONENT is IDNRK. However to enter multiple BOM line items I would require it to be something like IDNRK(01). But I am not sure if this is a right analysis.
    If any of you have an idea how to handle this, please provide your valuable inputs.
    Regards,

  • LSMW direct input method

    Hi
      What is the procedure to include a specific program / report in the drop down box of program name of Direct Input method in LSMW?
    What is the diff. between Physical path and Logical path?
    How can we give our input data using logical path when we execute some standard batch or direct input programs?
    Ex. RMDATIND.

  • LSMW - Direct Input for XD01 transaction

    Hi Experts,
    I am facing an error while doing the LSMW - using batch Input session. In the last step of LSMW.. while running batch input session, i faced an error "Function code cannot be selected" this error is coming because the Function code(OK Code) of that screen is "KNZA".
    the problem is that how can i change the OK code (function code) in the standard program. or is there any other way for solving this problem...
    please help me out....

    Hi
    I feel the problem is with the Sturcture relations step. Are you mapping the below structure?
    BKNZA   Customer Master Record Altern.Payer (Batch Input Structure) -
    Ensure that for all the structures you are mapping here.. you need to provide elements in field mappings. Otherwise it may lead to such errors.
    Try to check all the steps once again and then generate the program again and check.

    ya sachin ... as u r telling .. download from the std program... & continue the process....
    my suggestion ... cross check again with ur fields of the source structure ....i mean decalre only fields .. which are required .. then do the field mapping again for the all the fields...
    i believe there will be documentation for the std program .... check it & go thru with that ..map it ... wherever needed ....

  • LSMW using IDocs/BAPIS

    Hi All,
    I am new to LSMW and want a simple tutorial for using LSMW using Idocs and BAPIs. I have found many useful tutorials for Direct Input and Batch Recording. If anyone can give me link or a tutorial for using lsmw with idocs and bapis it will be of great help.
    Thanks in advance.
    archish

    Hi,
       is step by step process .
    Step-by-Step Guide for using BAPI in LSMW
    Note! The screen prints in this article are from ECC 5.0. They may differ slightly in other versions.
    Introduction:
    This document details the usage of BAPI in LSMW. We have used the example of migration of the purchase order data into SAP.
    Pre-requisites:
    It is assumed that the reader of this article has the minimum knowledge required on the Business Object, BAPI, Message Types and IDoc Types.
    Step-by-Step Procedure:
    Details of the BAPI used in this scenario:
    Business Object: BUS2012
    Method: CreateFromData
    Details of Message Type and Basic IDoc Type:
    Message Type: PORDCR
    Basic IDoc Type: PORDCR02
    Let’s have a look at the BAPI first, before proceeding to the LSMW:
    1. Go to Transaction BAPI
    2. Click on Search Button
    3. Enter the value “BUS2012” and select “Obj.type(Technical Object Name”
    4. Press ENTER
    5. Following screen appears:
    6. On the left side of the screen, Expand the “PurchaseOrder”.
    7. Select “PurchaseOrder” and double-click on the same for details.
    Building LSMW using BAPI:
    1. Go to Transaction LSMW.
    2. Enter the Project, Subproject and Object information and click on CREATE.
    3. Enter the descriptions for Project, Subproject and Object as prompted.
    4. Now select Settings à IDoc Inbound Processing
    5. “IDoc Inbound Processing” screen appears. Enter the required details as shown below:
    6. Click on “Activate IDoc Inbound Processing”.
    7. Click on “Yes” when prompted for “Activate IDoc Inbound?”
    8. Hit on “Back” to return to the main screen.
    9. Click on Continue (F8). Following Screen appears:
    10. Select the Step 1 “Maintain Object Attributes” and select “Execute”.
    11. Select the radio button “Business Object Method” and enter the following details:
    Business Object: BUS2012
    Method: CreateFromData
    Hit ENTER
    12. Save and click on BACK button. Following information message is displayed.
    13. Now select step 2 “Maintain Source Structures” and click “Execute”.
    14. In this step, we need to maintain the source structure. In our example, lets consider the example of a file with 2 structures Head and Item data as shown below:
    Click on Create and name the source structure as HEADERDATA. Now select HEADERDATA and click on “Create” again to create the child structure. Following popup appears:
    Select “Lower Level” and click on Continue. Enter the Item data structure name.
    Click Save and hit BACK button to go to the main screen.
    15. Select step 3 “Maintain Source Fields” and hit execute.
    16. Enter the fields as shown below:
    17. Click SAVE and return to main screen.
    18. Select step 4 “Maintain Structure Relations” and click Execute.
    Select E1PORDCR and click on CREATE RelationShip. Following screen appears:
    Select HEADERDATA and hit ENTER
    Similarly do the same for the structure E1BPEKKOA, E1BPEKPOC and E1BPPEKET.
    Click Save and return to main screen.
    19. Select the step “Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules” and click on execute. Maintain the Field Mapping as seen below:
    20. Select step 7 “Maintain Source Files” and provide the link for the test file created. (Create a test file with the same structure as defined earlier).
    Save and return to main screen.
    21. Select the step “Assign Files” and click on Execute.
    Assign the file provided to the source structure. Here the same file is provided for both the structures.
    Save and return to the main screen.
    22. Select the step “Read Data” and click on Execute.
    Click on Execute.
    Return to the main screen.
    23. Select the step “Display read data” and click on execute.
    Click on the structure name to get the field level values.
    24. Return to main screen and now select “Convert Data”.
    25. Return to the main screen and select “Display Converted data”.
    26. Return to main screen and select “Start IDoc generation”.
    27. Now select the step “Start IDoc Processing” on the main screen.
    28. Return to main screen and click on “Create IDoc overview”. Here the data record and status records of the IDoc could be viewed:

  • RCPTRA02 - Direct Input Error logs

    Hi All,
    We are using LSMW - RCPTRA02 direct input approach to load Routing's in ECC 6.0 as a part of data migration. We are facing issue while reviewing logs displayed after completion of LSMW execution. This direct input program does not display record number which have been failed or successfully updated. So we could not able to tie back which all records have been failed and due to what reason at what level. This is potentially will delay our data load verification process in production. We cannot change our approach at this moment.
    So is there any better way to understand logs displayed by RCPTRA02 direct input program?
    Your help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Regards,

    Do recording again...
    Be carefule while recording, sometimes you see some pop up screens which you need to press "Enter" or "ESC".
    I am not familiar with your transaction code but I can tell what the problem is,
    There is screen coming up when you are loading and it is expecting input from you, it can be either data or just an ENTER / ESC.
    Execute your program in foreground and see what you have to enter.
    I advise you to do a recording again but be careful with pop up screens.
    There can be another problem, may be configuration might have changed after you create your program.
    Execute it in foreground and you will see if order of screen has been changed or not.
    Let me know if this does not solve your problem.
