XML to Internal tables

Hi,
Our scenairo is to retreive the data from XML file and convert it into Idoc for inbound processing.
I need to get the data from xml to the internal tables so that i can convert them to idoc through Function Modules.
My issue is XML file is not fixed nor the message type and the idoc type. Everything is dynamic.
I am currently tryin by creating dynamic internal table but i think i need to create multiple dynamic tables from a dynamic table.
Please suggest the path forward.
Thanks,
Varun

hi,
check the below code.
this will convert XML data into an internal table. From this internal table u can manipulate and get desired results.
*Generated from XML file (upload)
    CALL METHOD xml->import_from_file
      EXPORTING
        filename = p_file
      RECEIVING
        retcode = ret.
*convert to string
    CALL METHOD xml->render_2_string
      IMPORTING
        retcode      = ret
        stream       = stream
       size         =
*convert to xstring
    CALL FUNCTION 'SCMS_STRING_TO_XSTRING'
      EXPORTING
        text   = stream
      IMPORTING
        buffer = xstring
      EXCEPTIONS
        failed = 1
        OTHERS = 2.
    IF sy-subrc = 0.
    MESSAGE ID SY-MSGID TYPE SY-MSGTY NUMBER SY-MSGNO
            WITH SY-MSGV1 SY-MSGV2 SY-MSGV3 SY-MSGV4.
    ENDIF.
*Extract data from xsting to internal table
    CALL FUNCTION 'SMUM_XML_PARSE'
      EXPORTING
        xml_input = xstring
      TABLES
        xml_table = it_data
        return    = it_ret.

Hi ,
To convert XML data into internal table u have to use FM "SMUM_XML_PARSE", this FM takes XString as input ,so first u have to

Simple transformation error in converting XML to internal table

Hi Team,
I have an issue, its working in Dev, QA, and Prod in PI 7.0, once we upgrade it to PI 7.1 I'm getting the below mention error,
Unknown Simple transformation error in converting XML to internal table

Can any one suggest related notes are suggestion.
appericate in advance for the solutions which you all provide me
Thank you

Check the flag "use SAP XML toolkit" for the operation mapping and try, if that works then.
Check the flag for all XSLT and Java mappings which is migrated from PI 7.0

Upload XML to internal table and vice versa in SAP 4.6C

Hi,
   Happy New Year to you all!
   We are using 46C and I am beginning to learn about XML. We have a requirement to (1) upload an XML file into an internal table as well as (2) create an XML file from an internal table.
   I read some of the posted messages about this but they didn't seem to be applicable in 46C (I could be wrong).
   Could someone please help me using the sample file below?

This is not the complete XML file as it exceeds the 15000 characters and then I cann't post here. So I have deleted much part of it.
The hierarchy is as following: Shipment->Delivery->Order->Carton->Item.
I have created a XSLT for it which is working fine.
But when I execute my report program it gives CX_SY_XSLT_FORMAT_ERROR saying that

Simple Transformation - XML to Internal Table Error

I have a webservice call that returns XML. I need to transform a portion of the response to an internal table, but my simple transformation is not working with loop processing. I have read through most posts regarding the topic but they're either too old or related to serialization. There aren't any exceptions thrown, but I don't get any data in the internal table (PAPERWORK root). Below are some code snippets. Any ideas on the problem with the XSLT template? Thanks.
Sample XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<PrintVersionDataSet>
<Result>
<ReturnCode>W</ReturnCode>
<ReturnMessage>There are reports with later version(s)</ReturnMessage>
</Result>
<Paperwork>
<ReportCode>CVR</ReportCode>
<ReportName>Cover Sheet</ReportName>
<Version>2</Version>
<PrintedDateTime>2009-05-01T09:54:04.1-05:00</PrintedDateTime>
</Paperwork>
<Paperwork>
<ReportCode>SPS</ReportCode>
<ReportName>Sponsor Summary</ReportName>
<Version>2</Version>
<PrintedDateTime>2009-05-01T09:54:04.99-05:00</PrintedDateTime>
</Paperwork>
</PrintVersionDataSet>
XSLT Code:
<?sap.transform simple?>
<tt:transform xmlns:tt="http://www.sap.com/transformation-templates">
<tt:root name="RESULT"/>
<tt:root name="PAPERWORK"/>
<tt:template>
    <PrintVersionDataSet>
      <Result tt:ref="RESULT">
        <ReturnCode>
          <tt:value ref="RETURNCODE"/>
        </ReturnCode>
        <ReturnMessage>
          <tt:value ref="RETURNMESSAGE"/>
        </ReturnMessage>
      </Result>
      <tt:deserialize>
        <tt:loop ref=".PAPERWORK">
          <Paperwork>
            <ReportCode>
              <tt:value ref="REPORTCODE"/>
            </ReportCode>
            <ReportName>
              <tt:value ref="REPORTNAME"/>
            </ReportName>
            <Version>
              <tt:value ref="VERSION"/>
            </Version>
            <PrintedDateTime>
              <tt:value ref="PRINTEDDATETIME"/>
            </PrintedDateTime>
          </Paperwork>
        </tt:loop>
      </tt:deserialize>
    </PrintVersionDataSet>
</tt:template>
</tt:transform>
ABAP Call to Transform Data:
TRY.
CALL TRANSFORMATION Z_GA_PAPERWORK_VERS_WEBSVC
      SOURCE XML LS_RESPONSE-VERIFY_PRINT_VERSION_RESULT
      RESULT RESULT     = LS_RESULT
             PAPERWORK = LT_PAPERWORK.
    CATCH CX_ROOT INTO ROOT_EXCEPTION.
      CALL METHOD ROOT_EXCEPTION->IF_MESSAGE~GET_TEXT
        RECEIVING
          RESULT = LV_MESSAGE.
ENDTRY.

Upon further inspection and testing with a simple file and program, I can see that the XML structure isn't quite correct for the loop process. There needs to be a single <PAPERWORK> node, instead of one for each table line in the file. This should allow the loop to execute properly after a slight adjustment to the XSLT template.

How to parse XML for internal table

hi guys, I would like to know how to parse xml for an internal table. I explain myself.
Let's say you have a purchase order form where you have header data & items data. In my interactive form, the user can change the purchase order quantity at the item level. When I received back the pdf completed by mail, I need to parse the xml and get the po qty that has been entered.
This is how I do to get header data from my form
lr_ixml_node = lr_ixml_document->find_from_name( name = ''EBELN ).
lv_ebeln = lr_ixml_node->get_value( ).
How do we do to get the table body??
Should I used the same method (find_from_name) and passing the depth parameter inside a do/enddo?
thanks
Alexandre Giguere

Alexandre,
Here is an example. Suppose your internal table is called 'ITEMS'.
lr_node = lr_document->find_from_name('ITEMS').
lv_num_of_children = lr_node->num_children( ).
lr_nodechild = lr_node->get_first_child( ).
do lv_num_of_children times.
    lv_num_of_attributes = lr_nodechild->num_children( ).
    lr_childchild = lr_nodechild->get_first_child( ).
   do lv_num_of_attributes times.
      lv_value = lr_childchild->get_value( ).
      case sy-index.
         when 1.
           wa_item-field1 = lv_value
         when 2.
           wa_item-field2 = lv_value.
      endcase.
      lr_childchild = lr_childchild->get_next( ).
   enddo.
   append wa_item to lt_item.
   lr_nodechild = lr_nodechild->get_next( ).
enddo.

XML to internal table conversion within ABAP mapping class

I am doing a ABAP mapping for file to Idoc. My requirement is to convert XML file into ABAP internal table (within ABAP mapping class). Is there any standard FM, method, transformation etc, which can be used here.
Thanks, Dehra

Dehra,
Have you seen this weblogs which talks about this:

XML to internal table

Hi,
I am on 4.6 C. Call Transformation is not available here.
I have an XML file with deep structure with nodes/subnodes.
I have to convert the file to an internal table with matching deep structure.
I have seen a program that works in reverse- i.e. converts internal table with deep structure to XML and it seems to work fine in 4.6 C.
Does anybody have a program that creates internal table from XML?
Any help would be highly appreciated

Hi,
Please try to use FM SMUM_XML_PARSE.
This FM will upload an XMl file into an internal table.
Regards,
Ferry Lianto

Help needed XML to Internal table and vice versa

Hello frnds, I need to convert Internal table to XML and Vice versa.
Now I am able to most of the part except for this...
the xml which I have to generate looks something like this...
- <trade_dt>
- <![CDATA[ 20111108000000:20111108235959
]]>
</trade_dt>
its a range I think
And then the reponse which I get back the XML is like
- <lockinfo>
- <![CDATA[
TRD_HEADER     1045     1          2
ACT_CASHFLOW     1042               1
TRD_TERM     1045               2
]]>
</lockinfo>
Is there any provision in class cl_ixml or class if_ixml_element to handle this part.....
Edited by: Amit Sawant on Dec 28, 2011 3:51 PM

Hello Amit,
I would suggest you, to use the XSL-Transformations, which can be inbound used in ABAP.
For example:
DATA:
l_xml       TYPE string,
lt_flights TYPE TABLE OF SFLIGHT.
SELECT * FROM SFLIGHT INTO TABLE LT_FLIGHT.
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
SOURCE DATA = lt_flights
RESULT XML l_xml.
Now, you have a XML-String which is in the ABAP-XML Notation, which means, that ABAP can move this XML-Data back into an internal table/structure.
For the backward, you have to use the following statement:
CALL TRANSFORMATION id
SOURCE XML l_xml
RESULT DATA = lt_flights.
As you will see, it is very easy. The Transformation "id" is just one example and build in. When you have to transform the data, or do not want to have the ASX-Notation in it, you should at least define your own transformations with the transaction XSLT_TOOL and use it similar to the transformation "id".
Kind Regards,
Hendrik

Could you please tel me why the first 8 lines were removed, till <Soap:Body and also added the line <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> in the beggining .
Becuase there will be lot of XML files will be coming from the Vendor daily and that should be uploaded in the application server and should update in the SAP tables based on the data in the XML file.
what information i need to give to vendor that do not add the first 8 lines in the XML file and add the line in the beggining <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>   ??????
Is there any other way we can do with out removing the lines?

Create XML file from internal table and vise a versa

Hi Friends,
I have requirement to create an XML string from internal table data and also read XML string data to internal table.
Can anybody tell are there any Function Modules or methods existing for this?
Thanks.
Krishna Yerram.

1. Write XSLT program. T.code XSLT . e.g. XSLT name "ZTRANS".
2. Write ABAP program
Which includes declaration of internal tables
that you need "IT_DATA".
Upload XML data to an internal table "IT_XML "
use below statement to convert XML to internal table.
Call transformation ZTRANS
source XML IT_XML
result IT_DATA.
