XML data into Oracle Tables. XML file on Application Server.Oracle Apps R12

Hi All,
My Database version : 11.2.0.2.0
I have an XML file which needs to be loaded into the Database Tables. How ever i do not want to use the XMLTYPE as given below
insert into test1 (
SELECT PrcDate, PmtType, PmtStatus, PmtTypeCount, PmtTypeAmt
FROM XMLTABLE(
'/WFPaymentAck/RejectedDom1ACH'
PASSING XMLTYPE( BFILENAME('ECX_UTL_LOG_DIR_OBJ','wf_test_xml.XML'), NLS_CHARSET_ID('UTF8') )
COLUMNS
PrcDate VARCHAR2(2000) PATH '@PrcDate' ,
PmtType VARCHAR2(2000) PATH '@PmtType' ,
PmtStatus VARCHAR2(100) PATH '@PmtStatus' ,
PmtTypeCount VARCHAR2(100) PATH 'PmtTypeCount' ,
PmtTypeAmt VARCHAR2(100) PATH 'PmtTypeAmt'
Because this way the XML file needs to reside on the DB server.
I am looking into other option of loading the XML file into a CLOB column of a table and reading it from that column.
I did a couple of tests and feel that this way also the XML file has to reside on the Database Server itself. I am not sure if this is correct or if there is any problem with our TEST instance.
++Can anyone let me know if i need to have the XML file on the DB server instead of the Application server to load into a CLOB column of table ??++
++Or++
++Is there any other workaround for me to load XML into Oracle Tables, while having the XML file on Application Server.++
Your immediate help is appreciated. I need to get past this ASAP.
Thanks in Advance.

1) Are you asking me to create a folder on Database directory which points to a folder on the Apps server ?I suggest creating an Oracle directory object (a database object) pointing to a real location (folder) on Application server.
we DONOT want a hand shake between the DB Server and the APPS server.I don't see where the problem is.
I'm not familiar with Apps R12 but there's no doubt the two servers are already communicating, at least App server should be able to access the DB for the whole thing to run.
As I said :
One way or another, the data has to make its way to the database, there's no workaround to that.How do you imagine the data will end up in a database table if it doesn't come to the DB server?
There's no magical method out there, both servers have to communicate at some point.
About client-server approaches (client being here the App server), you can read about accessing the XML DB repository in the XML DB Developer's Guide : http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e23094/toc.htm
Other option : SQL*Loader can load a CLOB, or an XMLType column too

FM to read XML files from Application server in ECC5.0

Hi All,
We need to pick up an XML file from Application server/FTP server. The requirement is to parse the XML file and process it to create material master. SAP provides standard function modules to read XML files.
Now we need to read the XML file contents of MM01 and upload into SAP Data Base through BAPI
I need to know about the Function modules to read XML files from Application Server and also about the FM's that will update the Date base tables with the data obtained form XML files.
Regards
Prathima

For creating the material master look at BAPI_STANDARDMATERIAL_CREATE.

Download to application server using job open/close

Hello people,
Currently I am using open/close dataset to download to the application server automatically. What I do here is submit a program execute in background when the report is done the report is automatically downloaded to the application server.
My problem now is that I want to use job open/close. With this, unfortunatley, my current method of open/close dataset will be unsuable to download to application server once the background job is done.
My question is, is there a way for me to automatically download a file to the application server using the job open/close method?
Thank you so much and take care.

<b>Hi,
What you can do is to write a report program that downloads the data to the file on the app server.
Now, you can use the JOB_OPEN and JOB_CLOSE and submit this program in the background which will write the file.
Regards,
Ravi</b>
So what you are saying is that I create two programs, where the job open/close program is the one I will run?
Problem is that I plan to get the values of the selection-options from the original program using the program with the job open/close. How will that work.
Thanks

Problem with pdf display downloaded from application server

Hi all,
I have a problem with displaying pdf downloaded from application server (saved in BINARY MODE).
I am getting the pdf output of adobe form in FPFORMOUTPUT-PDF as rawstring back to my program and then converting that rawstring into binary form using the function module SCMS_BINARY_TO_STRING.
Now, when I export the data to presentation server directly using cl_gui_frontend_services=>gui_download, the pdf is downloaded properly.
However, when I save the data to application server file by looping at the internal table obtained from SCMS_XSTRING_TO_BINARY and using TRANSFER, and subsequently downloading the file in "unconverted format" from AL11 to my desktop, I am getting a "blank" pdf file (with the same number of pages as the one downloaded using gui_download).
I have tried different encodings during download but in those cases i get corrupted pdf message. only the default option of INTIAL value seems to work.
I am forced to believe that there is a problem in my code which saves the data to app server but I cant find any solution that is logical. Any solution to this would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sasi

Xml file in application server

Experts,
I'm using a a simple tranformation and "open dataset" statement in order to write a xml file in application server: This is working fine.
i notice that when i preview the file in transaction "AL11" , it shows like " <tag> <tag> <tag> <tag> ......
The encoding of this file is 'utf-8'.
I did another test that was writing, trouht transaction CG3Z, a xml file in encoding 'ISO-8859-15'. When a preview the file in AL11 is shows like :
<tag>
<tag>
<tag>
<tag>
The change in the preview is due to the codification ? Or is regarding that way we write the file to the server ?
Best regards,
MR.

Hello,
Change is because of the encoding style changed from utf-8 to 'ISO-8859-15'.
May be you can try changing this manualy in XML file and see the output result.
Thanks,
Augustin.

Reading XML file from application server and put into internal table-4.6C

Dear All,
Is there any way of reading XML file from application server to SAP? I am using 4.6C. Function module SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING function module is not available. Please suggest.
Thanks and regards,
Atanu

Hi Atanu!
Simply use the XSLT transformation 'ID'.
FIELD-SYMBOLS <ls_result> TYPE ANY.
CREATE DATA lref_data TYPE (your_structure).
ASSIGN lref_data->* TO <ls_result>.
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
SOURCE XML xmlstr
RESULT result = <ls_result>.
"xmlstr" contains your XML file. Just read it into it via standard I/O operations. "<ls_result>" will contain your DDIC formatted content.
Best regards
Torsten

Reading XML File from application server

Hi experts,
My aim is to read a XML file from application server and extract the relevant data from it and process further.
When I am trying to read a XML file from application server it is reading success fully but the problem is that its not reading the last root structure of XML file why is so happening can any body help me?
I am using the following code:
TYPES: BEGIN OF xml_line,
text(256) type x,
END OF xml_line.
DATA: e_file LIKE rlgrap-filename VALUE 'applcatin server path'
OPEN DATASET e_file FOR INPUT IN BINARY MODE.
IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
DO.
    READ DATASET e_file INTO wa_item1-text.
    IF sy-subrc EQ 0.
      APPEND wa_item1 TO gt_item1 .
      CLEAR wa_item1.
    ELSE.
      EXIT.
    ENDIF.
ENDDO.
ENDIF.
CLOSE DATASET e_file.
after this i am passing this internal table to "cl_ixml" class to extract the data
but it returning the itab with required value except the last record.
The stream reading the file it self is i thought in complete thats why it is not converting the all values.
Please help me...
Thanks a ton in advance.

Hi,
1 Copy Report BCCIIXMLT1
2 (you can change the way of filling internal table xml_table if necessary)
3 you don't need the part between
*-- render the DOM back into an output stream/internal table
and
*-- print the whole DOM tree as a list...
Comment it out or simply delete it
4 Rename form print_node to your liking e.g. process_node
5 In your new form you need three extra variables:
data: attribs type ref to IF_IXML_NAMED_NODE_MAP,
      attrib_node type ref to IF_IXML_NODE,
      attrib_value type string.
6 After the lines:
when if_ixml_node=>co_node_element.
string = pNode->get_name( ).
Insert:
attribs = pNode->get_attributes( ).
clear attrib_value.
case string.
when ''. "put your XML tag name here
    attrib_node = attribs->get_named_item(name = '' ). "put your XML attribute name here
    attrib_value = attrib_node->get_value( ).
