Hi,

I want to run the "<b>Batch Input Interface for Vendors - RFBIKR00</b>" for uploading the data into Vendor Master.

But when I give the name of the file path, its giving the error saying that "no such file is found".

could you tell me what i have to do if i want to use a file which is in my presentation server?

Are you using this program via LSMW? If not, you probably should be. You probably wouldn't have the problem that you are seeing. Are you using LSMW?

It would be a lot easier for you if you where using LSMW. Has anyone introduced you to this tool?

LSMW is a data migration tool offered by SAP. It is transaction code LSMW. You can create LSMW projects that upload all kinds of data. One standard routine is for Vendor uploading which uses the program that you mentioned. The LSMW workbench will handle the structure of your input from from PC, reading the data into files on the application server, converting them, creating the Batch Input session, and of course running it. Everything you need to upload vendors is right there. Please search this forum for LSMW. You should find some helpful links.

Hi Dev,

If you are not familier with LSMW, Do a recording in SHDB transaction & write a BDC.

But i wonder why are you not able to see LSMW.

What version of R/3 you are on? Before 47 versions LSMW was add on to the R/3 system. If your R/3 version is older than 47 then you have to add the LSMW. From 47 and up LSMW comes with R/3.

Don't know about LSMW, but to run the program, you'll have to upload the file from the presentation to an internal table (FM GUI_UPLOAD) and then transfer it to the APP server.


open dataset...
loop at itab.
  transfer itab to ...
endloop.
