hi,

We need to follow some steps.In case of session method

The steps are:

1 Maintain Object Attributes : here we can specify which method we are using

.select and execute it.

It contains 4 options

*Standard Batch/Direct Input : we can you predefined objects provided by sap

*Batch Input Recording : we can record a particular transaction: give name ->select overview->provide recording name->do the recording->select default all->save->f3

*BAPI

*Idoc->save -> back

2 Maintain Source Structures-we have to maintain a structure nothing but Internal table->save -> back

3 Maintain Source Fields : we have to maintain fields we can create and we can copy from repository->save -> back

4 Maintain Structure Relations: here our structure is assigned to Our recording if we use recording->save -> back

5 Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules : here fields are mapped;just go to EXTRAS->auto field mapping,for checking unassigned fields->EXTRAS->un assigned fields->save -> back

6 Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines: here we can specify fixed values and user defined sub routines->save -> back

7 Specify Files : we have to give the path of file and name and delimiter details->save -> back

8 Assign Files : we have to assign our file,it will be automatically assigned -> save -> back

9.Read Data->execute->records will be read

10 Display Read Data->displays the no.of records read

11 Convert Data->execute ->f3(writes records)

12.Display Converted Data->execute->f3

13.Create Batch Input Session->creates session->execute->f3

14.Run Batch Input Session->controls leads to sm35->process->check i log if it contains errors.

hi,

We use Lsmw to upload large amount of data.Almost 60% logic will be provided by system and error handling is also very easy.

LSMW supports Session method and Direct Input only.It doesn't support all Transaction method.We can use BAPI's and IDoc's also.

We need to follow some steps.In case of session method

The steps are:

1.Maintain Object Attributes : here we can specify which mehod we are using

.select and execute it.

It contains 4 options

*Standard Batch/Direct Input : we can you predified objects provided by sap

*Batch Input Recording : we can record a particular transaction: give name ->select overview->provide recording name->do the recording->select default all->save->f3

*BAPI

*Idoc->save -> back

2.Maintain Source Structures-we have to maintain a structure nothing but Internal table->save -> back

3.Maintain Source Fields : we have to maintain fields we can create and we can copy from repository->save -> back

4.Maintain Structure Relations: here our structure is assigned to Our recording if we use recording->save -> back

5.Maintain Field Mapping and Conversion Rules : here fields are mapped;just go to EXTRAS->auto field mapping,for checking unassigned fields->EXTRAS->un assigned fields->save -> back

6.Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines: here we can specify fixed values and user defined sub routines->save -> back

7.Specify Files : we have to give the path of file and name and delimitor details->save -> back

8.Assign Files : we have to assign our file,it will be automatically assigned -> save -> back

9.Read Data->execute->records will be read

10.Display Read Data->displays the no.of records read

11.Convert Data->execute ->f3(writes records)

12.Display Converted Data->execute->f3

13.Create Batch Input Session->creates session->execute->f3

14.Run Batch Input Session->controls leads to sm35->process->check i log if it contains errors.

In case of Direct input:

After 12 step :

13 start direct Input method
