Downloading Master Data

[Former Member]

Dear All,

I am to download master data for MM. We might need 40 to 200 fields to download.

The area of concern is we do not know what is the volume of data ( might be 5,00,000+ ).

Please suggest a viable alternative to download the data since gui_download to excel sheet might not be a good option.

Try using the FM TABLE_EXPORT_TO_MSACCESS .

Hope this helps.

Thanks,

Excel can be limited to 64k lines depending on version.

If you need it externally, you option could be to export (WS_DOWNLOAD) as a tab delimited file.

WS_DOWNLOAD is only good when going to your local PC.

IF you want to go to an Application Server, you'll need to use something along these lines:

  CONSTANTS: c_tab TYPE x VALUE '09'.

  OPEN DATASET archfilname FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE MESSAGE t_mesg.
  IF sy-subrc NE 0.
    MOVE 'X' TO t_error.
    MESSAGE e100(z0) WITH 'Error opening achrive file:' t_mesg.
    EXIT.
  ENDIF.

  LOOP AT it_out INTO out_rec.
    CONCATENATE
        out_rec-recnum
        out_rec-leadid
        out_rec-ltype
        out_rec-ltype_txt
        out_rec-status
        out_rec-status_txt
        out_rec-statdt

        out_rec-heard
        out_rec-heard_txt

        out_rec-foltyp_txt
        out_rec-fcmt
      INTO arch_rec
      SEPARATED BY c_tab.
    TRANSFER arch_rec TO archfilname.
  ENDLOOP.
  CLOSE DATASET archfilname.
