Parse data to Internal Table

[Former Member]

I have XML file and I parsed it. After that I have like this lines :

ELEMENT : flights NUM_CHILDREN: 8 ROOT: #document NAME2:

#document

ELEMENT : airline NUM_CHILDREN: 2 ROOT: #document NAME2:

flights

ATTRIBUTE: code = AA

ATTRIBUTE: name = American Airlines

ELEMENT : flight NUM_CHILDREN: 5 ROOT: #document

NAME2: airline

ATTRIBUTE: number = 0017

ELEMENT : from NUM_CHILDREN: 1 ROOT: #document

NAME2: flight

ATTRIBUTE: airport = JFK

VALUE : NEW YORK,US NAME2: from

ELEMENT : to NUM_CHILDREN: 1 ROOT: #document NAME2:

flight

ATTRIBUTE: airport = SFO

VALUE : SAN FRANCISCO,US NAME2: to

ELEMENT : departure NUM_CHILDREN: 1 ROOT: #document

NAME2: flight

VALUE : 110000 NAME2: departure

ELEMENT : arrival NUM_CHILDREN: 1 ROOT: #document

NAME2: flight

VALUE : 140100 NAME2: arrival

ELEMENT : type NUM_CHILDREN: 1 ROOT: #document

NAME2: flight

VALUE : Scheduled NAME2: type

ELEMENT : flight NUM_CHILDREN: 5 ROOT: #document

How can I parse this lines in my internal table ( have flight,arrival,airport ... fields)

Thanks

hi

use this fm

<b>SMUM_XML_PARSE</b>

plz reward if useful

Hi Mehmet,

Use the following code snippet which may solve your problem. It will fetches data from XML and inturn places into Internal table.

Report XML_TO_INTERNALTABLE.

DATA : t001 LIKE TABLE OF t001 WITH HEADER LINE.

DATA : BEGIN OF itab OCCURS 0,

a(100) TYPE c,

END OF itab.

DATA: xml_out TYPE string .

DATA : BEGIN OF upl OCCURS 0,

f(255) TYPE c,

END OF upl.

DATA: xmlupl TYPE string .

*-Fetch Data

SELECT * FROM t001 INTO TABLE t001.

*- XML

CALL TRANSFORMATION ('ID')

SOURCE tab = t001[]

RESULT XML xml_out.

*- Convert to TABLE

CALL FUNCTION 'HR_EFI_CONVERT_STRING_TO_TABLE'

EXPORTING

i_string = xml_out

i_tabline_length = 100

TABLES

et_table = itab.

*-Download

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_DOWNLOAD'

EXPORTING

filetype = 'BIN'

filename = 'd:\xx.xml'

TABLES

data_tab = itab.

REFRESH t001.

CLEAR t001.

CALL FUNCTION 'GUI_UPLOAD'

EXPORTING

filename = 'D:\XX.XML'

filetype = 'BIN'

TABLES

data_tab = upl.

LOOP AT upl.

CONCATENATE xmlupl upl-f INTO xmlupl.

ENDLOOP.

*- XML

CALL TRANSFORMATION ('ID')

SOURCE XML xmlupl

RESULT tab = t001[].

Dear Vinaykumar

Thanks for your valuable help. I have a question. You are calling your ID transformation. Can I create my own transformation type (Because my XSL file is different)

Thanks

[nishanthbhandar]

Mehmet,

For transformation rules you need to create an XSLT program in the transaction XSLT_TOOL.You must then give this program name with the CALL TRANSFORMATION statement. Here ID is a sample SAP XSLT program.

The answer is that YES .. you can create your own XSLT program.

Please reward if helpful.

Dear Nishanth

Thanks I have been creating my XSLT but my xsl file have special type. It is for Indicative Exchange Rates. First table relase Indicative Exchange Rates. Second table (in the same xsl) give me Cross Rates when I use this XSLT in my program it's give me

Runtime errors XSLT_BAD_SOURCE_CONTEXT

Exception CX_XSLT_RUNTIME_ERROR

Occurred on 18.05.2006 at 11:33:26

There is no help text for this dump

Either the text was inadvertently deleted or the release of

the kernel differs from the release of the database

Refer to the Note system for further information on this dump.

I am calling my xslt with this lines:

CALL TRANSFORMATION ('ZKUR')

SOURCE XML xmlupl

RESULT tab = zexchange[].

What is your recommend If anybody want see my XSL fiel I will send it via email. My mail mavsar$@$gmail.com (Please $)

I must this xsl file because it is Central Bank Indicative Exchange Rates file.

Thanks for all person

[nishanthbhandar]

Mehmet,

Before calling the XSLT program make sure that you have declared the source XML file as type STRING or XSTRING.You can also pass it as an internal table which contains only CHAR type fields.

Also ensure that your XSLT program does not have any syntactic errors.

Test your XSLT program using transaction XSLT before using the same in your program.

If the extension of the source file is not XML save it as .XML before using it in the program.

Please let me know once you are done with all this.If the problem still persists paste your XML input file so that we can analyze it further.

Please reward helpful answers.

Hi experts,

the result of the method SMUM_XML_PARSE is nice. So I have all the XML-elements and XML-values (also attributes) in the table:

    CALL FUNCTION 'SMUM_XML_PARSE'       
      EXPORTING xml_input = l_xml_x1     
      TABLES    xml_table = it_result_xml
                return    = return       


Line| Hier| Type| cname| cvalue
    7	  3 |A   |DIRECT_DEBIT_QUALIFIER
    8	  4 |V   |INVOICE_DATE
    9	  4 |    |INVOICE_NUMBER
   10	  5 |V   |NUMBER

But I want it in my own structure. Can I generate or read out "cname" and "cvalue" into my own Datatyp?

TYPES: BEGIN OF t_ap,
        inv_date(8),
        inv_number TYPE t_inv_number,
        credit_debit_qualifier(1)
       END OF t_ap.
DATA: it_ap    TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_ap.

I also tried the CALL TRANSFORMATION method, but I get an error "No valid result context supplied". The "l_xml_x1" variable is an XSTRING and contains the XML file.

DATA: it_trans_xml  TYPE abap_trans_resbind_tab,

    CALL TRANSFORMATION zfi_airplus_xslt
      SOURCE xml l_xml_x1
      RESULT (it_trans_xml)

The xslt-programm looks like this:

<xsl:transform xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" xmlns:sap="http://www.sap.com/abapxml" version="1.0">
  <xsl:template match="/">
    <asx:abap xmlns:asx="http://www.sap.com/abapxml">
      <asx:values>
        <it_ap>



          <xsl:for-each select="INVOICE_HEAD">
            <t_ap_kopf>
              <invoice_date><xsl:value-of select="INVOICE_DATE"/></invoice_date>


              <t_ap_inv_num>
                  <number><xsl:value-of select="NUMBER"/></number>
                  <extension><xsl:value-of select="EXTENSION"/></extension>
                  <sequence><xsl:value-of select="SEQUENCE"/></sequence>
              </t_ap_inv_num>
...
...

Regards,

Steffen

[athavanraja]

post the sample xml file, will come up with the xslt for the same.

[former_member183924]

hi raja,

here it is:

<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="invoice_btm.xsl"?>
<INVOICES_BTM xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="invoice_btm.xsd">
	<INVOICE_BTM>
		<INVOICE_HEAD LANGUAGE="DE" DIRECT_DEBIT_QUALIFIER="NO">
			<INVOICE_DATE>20040112</INVOICE_DATE>
			<INVOICE_NUMBER>
				<NUMBER>0306299999</NUMBER>
				<EXTENSION>0</EXTENSION>
				<SEQUENCE>0</SEQUENCE>
			</INVOICE_NUMBER>
     ...
     ...

I also tried this

      RESULT invoice_date   = wa_ap-head-inv_date
             invoice_number = wa_ap-head-inv_number-number

This runs trought without a error, but without a value in my "wa" too.

<b>EDIT:</b>

do i need to catch the first 3 lines in the XML file? "invoice_btm"

Hi Steffen

Did it help?

[former_member183924]

Sure a lot! But I already looking for the right implementation in my programm.

In my programm I upload the XML file via GUI_UPLOAD into a internal table and convert this into one big XSTRING variable. maybe this is wrong, I have to check this....

I switch this thread as answered if I can cut the gordian knot..

[athavanraja]

since you have the xml content in xstring just pass that variable to call transformation (it can handle both xstring and string)

[former_member183924]

ok, can I use a deep structure in my abap program?

something like that:

TYPES: BEGIN OF t_ap_head,
        inv_date(8),
        inv_number TYPE t_inv_number,
        credit_debit_qualifier(1),
        credit_debit_label(10),
        billing_currency(3),
        base_currency(3),
        due_date(8),
        inv_parties TYPE t_inv_parties,
        inv_qualifier(4),
       END OF t_ap_head.

TYPES: BEGIN OF t_ap_detail,
        cust_cardnumber(30),
        cust_name(30),
       END OF t_ap_detail.

TYPES: BEGIN OF t_ap,
        head   TYPE t_ap_head,
        detail TYPE t_ap_detail,
       END OF t_ap.

DATA: it_ap TYPE STANDARD TABLE OF t_ap.

I cannot imagine how to declare this in the XSLT program?!?

[athavanraja]

yes its very much possible. check for sample code in these threads

alright, THANKS so much for your help.

I've made two ciritcal mistakes:

1) didn't write the ABAP Variables uppercase in the XSLT file

2) it is extremely a must have to paste the "<items>" tag....

                      <POST_CODE>
.....
.....

but now it works, also with the deep structure!

[athavanraja]

glad to know.

didn't write the ABAP Variables uppercase in the XSLT file

yes the abap variable has to be in upper case.

2) it is extremely a must have to paste the "<items>" tag....

item tag is to split it into records.

[former_member183924]

Hi Raja,

i thought now I understand the xml topic but I cannot convert the multiple elements (with attributes) from the XML file into my ABAP Table.

I tried this coding but it won't work well:

....
<PARTYCODE><xsl:value-of select="INVOICE_HEAD/INVOICE_PARTIES/PAYEE/PARTYCODE"/></PARTYCODE>
              <ADDRESS>
                      
                  <ADDRESSLINE>
                  <xsl:for-each select="ADDRESSLINE">
                  <items>
                  <xsl:value-of select="INVOICE_HEAD/INVOICE_PARTIES/PAYEE/ADDRESS/ADDRESSLINE"/>
                  </items>
                  </xsl:for-each>
                  </ADDRESSLINE>
                      
                  <POST_CODE> 
...
...

<PARTYCODE>LASG</PARTYCODE>

where is the problem ?

getting the attribute value?

provide me the itab definition to which you want to send the xml values to and sample xml file.

with this table structure and the XSLT program (posted above), the value for "addressline" is empty after running the CALL TRANSFORMATION.

here the debugger view for table. addressline is empty so I think my XSLT isn't correct.
