Call_conflict_function_type runtime error when calling GUI_upload

[Former Member]

I am trying to upload a csv file into an itab to insert into a database table, but I am getting the call_conflict_function_type runtime error, saying "the function module interface allows you to specify only fields of a particular type for "filename". The field d_file (the filename i am using) specified here is a different type. How can i rectify this???

[Former Member]

check the file type as 'BIN' or 'DAT' or 'ASC'...

[Former Member]

file type is already 'ASC', so that is not the issue

1ST capture file from application server to internal table using open dataset and close data set.

Use the Function Module SAP_CONVERT_TO_CSV_FORMAT to convert the internal table into Comma separated format then download this internal table using the Function Module GUI_DOWNLOAD.

TYPE-POOLS: truxs.

Hi Daniel,

when u get the dump scroll down to check the error analysis..

u will actuall get the details of the dump over there...

kindly check the header table u are passing is of the same type specified in FM...

type conflict generally occues due mismatch in the field type or table type u are passing

Regards,

Sai

check out the definition of the filename parameter (importing) in gui_upload

REFERENCE(FILENAME) TYPE  STRING

its type string.

if your variable d_file is of any other type you will get that error.

change the definition of d_file to type string .
