LSMW BOM ERROR

Former Member · ‎2012 Jul 06

HI All,

I am trying to create a LSMW for BOM upload,and I have got this below solution from another post,which is very similar to my requirement,but the main problem is how to identify which is BOM Header data and which is BOM Item data?In the previous post they are using indicator to seperate the BOM header and BoM ITem data but this IDENT C(001) should be mapped to which field in the standard structure..plz do reply ...

"""""""""""""""""""

Step 1

Maintian Object attributes

Use standard Batch / Direct Input

Object 0030 Material BOM

Method 0001 Create

Program Name RCSBI010

Program Type B Batch Input

Step 2

Maintain Source structure

Create BOM Header and create Bom details as a child to Bom Header

should look like this...BOM details is assigned as a child to BOM Header

BOM_CREATE1 - BOM_CREATE - BOM_CREATE BOM_CREATE1

Source Structures

BOM_HEADER Header Data for Bill of Material

BOM_DETAILS Bom details

Step 3

Maintain source fields..

Create a field called "IDENT" field type C and length 1....give value to IDENT in both places

Give IDENT= 1 for header and IDENT=2 for item details

below are sample fields that I used,

compare you screen with following

BOM_CREATE1 - BOM_CREATE - BOM_CREATE BOM_CREATE1

Source Fields

BOM_HEADER Header Data for Bill of Material

IDENT C(001) Ident

Identifing Field Content: 1

WERKS C(004) Plant

MATNR C(018) Material Number

STLAL C(002) Alternative BOM

SPACE1 C(003) space1

BMENG C(001) Base quantity

STLAN C(013) BOM Usage

BOM_DETAILS Bom details

IDENT C(001) ident

Identifing Field Content: 2

POSNR C(004) BOM Item Number

IDNRK C(018) BOM component

MENGE C(013) Component quantity

MEINS C(003) Component unit of measure

AUSCH C(005) Component scrap in percent

AVOAU C(005) Operation scrap in percent

SANKA C(001) Indicator for relevancy to costing

NLFZT C(003) Lead-time offset

LGORT C(004) Issue location for production order

POSTP C(001) Item Category (Bill of Material)

SORTF C(010) Sort String

REKRS C(001) Indicator: recursiveness allowed

NETAU C(001) Indicator: Net scrap

INTRM C(018) Phantom material

Step 4

Maintain source structure as shown below

Just assign BOM header to all structures...

you screen should look like below

BOM_CREATE1 - BOM_CREATE - BOM_CREATE BOM_CREATE1

Structure Relations

BGR00 Batch Input Structure for Session Data <<<< BOM_HEADER Header Data for Bill of Material

Select Target Structure BGR00 .

BICSK Batch Input Structure for BOM Header Data <<<< BOM_HEADER Header Data for Bill of Material

Select Target Structure BICSK .

BICSP Batch Input Structure for BOM Item Data <<<< BOM_DETAILS Bom details

Select Target Structure BICSP .

BICSU Batch Input Structure for BOM Sub-Item Data

Step 5

Maintain field mapping ..

make sure you maintained transaction CS01

Step 6 Specify files

For BOM header

File  Point to a text file where you are storing BOM info

File content select data for multiple source structures(Seq File)

Select tabular

Leave remaining as is.

Check if your screen looks similar to this shown below

BOM_CREATE1 - BOM_CREATE - BOM_CREATE BOM_CREATE1

Files

Legacy Data On the PC (Frontend)

Bom header C:\bom.txt

Data for Multiple Source Structures (Sequential Files)

Separator Tabulator

Field Order Matches Source Structure Definition

With Record End Indicator (Text File)

Code Page ASCII

Legacy Data On the R/3 server (application server)

Imported Data File for Imported Data (Application Server)

Imported Data BOM_CREATE.lsmw.read

Converted Data File for Converted Data (Application Server)

Converted Data BOM_CREATE1_.lsmw.conv

Logical Path C:\bom.txt

Logical File bom.txt

Wildcard Value Value for Wildcard '*' in File Name

Step 7

Assign same file to header and item structure as we are using sequence file

Your screen will look as shown below

BOM_CREATE1 - BOM_CREATE - BOM_CREATE BOM_CREATE1

Source Structures and Files

BOM_HEADER Header Data for Bill of Material

Bom header C:\ bom.txt

BOM_DETAILS Bom details

Bom header C:\ bom.txt

Test file format

1 PLT1 Material1 1 1 1

2 0010 Comp1 0.198 FT3 0 0 X 0 0020 L

2 0020 Comp2 0.045 FT3 0 0 X 0 0020 L

2 0030 Comp3 0.195 FT3 0 0 X 0 0020 L

1 PLT1 Material2 1 1 1

2 0010 Comp1 0.114 FT3 0 0 X 0 0020 L

1 PLT1 Material3 1 1 1

2 0010 Comp1 0.061 FT3 0 0 X 0 0020 L

Here inorder to get this file format…

You might need a query to download this data from your old system if it is an earlier version of SAP

Use CMC logical data base to build your query.

Hi

But which is your problem?

Your steps seems to be right

Max

Former Member · ‎2012 Jul 06

we are having two types of data

1)Header data
2)item level data

We will use only one flat file.

and in that flat file we need to use the indicator to seperate those two types of data since both type is having different structure.

so for we are using IDENT(indicator).the value of IDENT will be 1 when its header data]
the value of IDENT will be 2 when its item data.

but in the standard structure there should be a field where we should assign that indicator.

so when its 1 then it will take the value in header structure

when its 2 then it will take the value in item structure.

Please let me know if you need any more details.

Thanks,

Hi

No

Your input file structure should have 2 different structure:

- The first for header data

- The second (just a substructure of the first one) for item data

The first field of both strcuture is to indicate the type of record (header and item) and you assign to them the IDENTIF values

This setting has to be done in the step 3..........and I think you've done it correctly.

Now you need to assign the structures of your file to the structures of BI: this is done in the step 4: Maintain Structure Relations..........and I think you've done it correctly.

That's all......after defining the Relations between the structure the LSMW can know which is the record with header and item data.

Yes ,I have done as your instruction,but the problem how the LSMW can know that if the indicator is '1' then consider it as header data and if it is '2' then it is item data.

There should be a link in the 5th step.

I have doubt on this.Please help me.

Thanks for your patience.

Hi

The LSMW knows:

- if the indicator is 1 then it's record BOM_HEADER and if it's 2 then it's BOM_DETAILS: you've defined it in step 3

- it can filled structures BGR00 and BICSK with data from BOM_HEADER only and BICSP with data from BOM_DETAILS only: you have deined it in step 4

- which fields of BGR00, BICSK and BICSP have to be filled: you have defined it in Mapping section (step 5)

So the LSMW can generate a program in order to fill BI structure correctly, try to run the step to read and see your input file, you should see an output like this;

BOM_HEADER .............................

BOM_DETAILS ............................

BOM_DETAILS .............................

BOM_HEADER .............................

BOM_DETAILS ............................

BOM_DETAILS .............................

and so

Hi All,

The BOMs are getting created successfully.I have taken two structures in the 3rd step,one is for header and one is for item data.I did not mention any indicator,but instead indicator I kept material number and plant common for both structure.I have created two upload file and assigned both files.It is working fine.Thanks all for your support.

Thanks MAX.

Hi Aritra,

I have the same doubt as you do..How the LSMW knows to differentiate between Header and Items data based on Identifier Values.

My files:

Header File:

ID	LIFNR	BUKRS	EKORG	EKGRP	BSART	WAERS
A	3000006	5100	P510	AUM	NB	USD
B	120	3000	P500	KBF	NB	USD

Item File:

ID	EMATN	MENGE	WERKS	EBELP
A	71421207	11	5100	10
A	128197	12	5100	20
A	71420140	13	5100	30
B	011020-1	10	5000	10
B	010001	09	6000	20

and it creates 2 PO's: one with 3 line items and second one with 2 line items... I didnt map the ID field in Field mapping and conversion Rules step of LSMW. This is for Creating PO's.

Pls help.

Thanks,
