ShrtText

The current statement is defined for character-type data objects only.

What happened?

Error in ABAP application program.

The current ABAP program "YGL_BALANCES" had to be terminated because one of the

statements could not be executed.

This is probably due to an error in the ABAP program.

Error analysis

Only character-type data objects are supported at the argument

position "f" for the statement

"TRANSFER f TO ...".

In this case, the operand "f" has the non-character-type "BAPI1028_4". The

current program is flagged as a Unicode program. In the Unicode context,

type X fields are seen as non-character-type, as are structures that

contain non-character-type components.

HI,

MOve whatever that is there in the itab to another itab, with a structure referring to only char type variables.

move all the data of the itab1 to itab2 and use it for the transfer statement.

for eg: if there is a amount field, go to the data element level/domain level and see the output length of the field. Declare a char type variable of the same length in the new internal table.

REgards,

Ravi

First, this line needs to be modified. You should be giving the full path and file name.

<b>data: f_glacc type localfile default '/usr/sap/TST/SYS/flgl.txt'.</b>

Hi,

Problem may be that you are sending non char

fields to application server. Convert nonchar to

char and transfer the contents to application server.

Reward points if info is helpful

i guess f_glacc should be a valid application server path

eg: /usr/sap/trans/data/down/filename

Hi,

u need to transfer the contents of ur internal table into a character variable to transfer it to FILE.

something like this:

CLASS cl_abap_char_utilities DEFINITION LOAD.

CONSTANTS:con_tab TYPE c VALUE cl_abap_char_utilities=>horizontal_tab.

concatenate itab-var1 itab-var2 itab-var3 into char separated by con_tab.

transfer char to f_glacc.

there is some problem as i understand from ur code ...

There actually u have to mention application server path

with file name...

go thru this code ..I hope it will be helpful for u

ELECTION-SCREEN BEGIN OF BLOCK a WITH FRAME TITLE text-001

PARAMETERS : p_afile LIKE filename-fileintern LOWER CASE.

SELECTION-SCREEN END OF BLOCK a.

OPEN DATASET p_afile FOR OUTPUT IN TEXT MODE.

*Display this message if the file is not opened successfully

IF sy-subrc NE 0.

MESSAGE e006 WITH 'Error in opening Server file'.

ELSE.

LOOP AT it_display.

TRANSFER it_display TO p_afile.

ENDLOOP.

IF sy-subrc EQ 0.

WRITE : /'File posted successfully'.

ENDIF.

*Close dataset

CLOSE DATASET p_afile.

*Display this message if the file is not closed

Regarding teh application server path u can access u can get it from AL11 transaction.

Get one of the directories which u have access (generally

DIR_HOME PATH /usr/sap/CON/DVEBMGS03/work )

AND THEN add some file name say (file.txt)

so total path will be /usr/sap/CON/DVEBMGS03/work/file.txt)

then try

Hi,

try:

1) delete comment * from type st_i

2) define: DATA: ITAB2 type st_i OCCURS 0 WITH HEADER LINE

3) itab2[] = itab[]

4) transfer itab2

Hi,

since there are some non char fields trnasfer will fail.

so try to convert them to char fields and use transfer.

that will solve your problem.

declare them as char fields in your internal table
