Former Member — Tue, 09 Feb 2010 05:07:21 GMT

Dear Abapers,

Non SAP ERP COSMOS is sending some data ,and SAP is receiving the same through an RFC and saved in SAP database tables.

Now I want to see these data before saving it in SAP as the data is something weared.

So for this i will have to write the data accumulated in the structure into a log file as in RFC i cannot use an Write Statment.

Can some one please guide me with an example of writing data to a log file in RFC?

Regards.................

Hi,

How about writing the data to application server. Use OPEN DATASET, TRANSFER and CLOSE DATASET statements in your RFC.

Thanks,

Vinod.

Hi,

Another way I can think is display data in ALV and make a button in ALV which will post the entries.

so, it will be like view and approve.

Hi Sudha,

Just search the forum with OPEN DATASET. You can see lots of sample codes.

eg:


OPEN DATASET po_file FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE ENCODING DEFAULT.

LOOP at itab into wa.
TRANSFER wa TO po_file.
ENDLOOP.

CLOSE DATASET po_file.

You can check F1 help on OPEN DATASET for more details.

You can view the application server files in T-code AL11 and download the application server file to your PC using CG3Y

Thanks,

Vinod.

Vinod ,

I need ur assistance to know that i am sending Arabic charatcers to the application server.here instead of Arabic characters it prints "????".

I have already installed Arabic in SAP .And if I execute the same RFC locally i see Arabic Characters in my data base.

Doe OPEN DATA work for other language?

Regards................

HI,

OPEN DATASET can be used for any language. Did you use ENCODING DEFAULT with OPEN DATASET?

In debug mode were you able to see the values? Try to download the data to PC file and see. Also try to use Arabic codepage with OPEN DATA SET(BASIS team can give you the code page for arebic)

Thanks,

VInod.
