Input Field

Former Member — Thu, 21 Dec 2006 03:25:23 GMT

Dear All,

We got stuck when we're doing upload some text file to SAP. There are some message error "field xxx is not input field". For information, actually in table structure field xxx actually is not input field, the upload program automatically filling the field using the data from text file not from by manual input. How come this could be happen? Thanks a lot for response.

Regards,

Revan

I think u are using BDC for uploading process in BDC data wont get filled in the input disabled fields.

in the screen the field must be input disabled.

hi Revan,

I too faced the same problem.

Check the BDC program which you are using to upload the data.

In our program, while recording.. system itself populated a field on the screen, we also got the same error which you got.

Error got rectified when we commented those lines from teh code.

Ex: DKACB-FMORE is a field in display mode for one particular ledger account.

perform bdc_field using 'DKACB-FMORE'
'X'.

hi revan,

if u r using gui_upload FM . u have to pass parameter like file type 'ASC' and u have to give exact length of the field(the field length in the dictionary) in the text file . if ur using file type 'BIN' u have to give tab space between fields in the text file.

this example for file type 'ASC' .

take 3 fields like ebeln(10) , ernam(20), erdat(8).

u have to give like this in text file .

I think you are trying to use GUI_UPLOAD FM to upload your text file into DB. While using this FM, you have to format your text file as per the length specified in your int_tab table. Please see the below sample....

data: begin of int_tab occurs 0,

objid(8) type c,

filler_1(1) type c,

name1(20) type c,

filler_2(1) type c,

name2(20) type c,

end of int_tab.

call function 'GUI_UPLOAD'

exporting

filename = wf_filename "as an Input parameter

tables

data_tab = int_tab .

Note: The data should be in the same length as specified in int_tab

00000001 RAMA@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ KRI

00000002 RAMA@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@ KRI

Ps- @ represents blank space and last field no need to match the exact field length of int_tab.

loop at int_tab.

***write your logic over here....

endloop.

I hope this would be helps you.

Ramki.
