Regarding BDC

[Former Member]

Hi friends

To capture errors in BDC call transaction i used BDCMSGCOLL .But i am not able to get errors even if i give wrong record in input file(presentaion server file) and when recording it is showing error wrong material number(for ex.) after when i exit that recording and return to program but it doesn't show what errors occured in output.

what type of errrors may be captured during processing in real time

I am in confusion plz help me

thanks & Regards

All the messages will be captured in bdcmsgcoll..

After call transaction, do not check for sy-subrc.. instead

loop at bdcmsgcoll .

if bdcmsgcoll-msgtyp = 'E' or bdcmsgcoll-msgtyp = 'W'

Function module.. FORMAT_MESSAGE.. and get the message text and print it on the screen...

endif.

endloop.

But remember not at all the error messages will have the msgtyp E or A or W.. Some of them can be I or S..

Hi sandhya,

1. Suppose you have 5 records in file,

and the error comes only on the 1st and 2nd records.

2. then after the full bdc is done,

the BDCMSGCOLL will contain

errors (IF ANY) for the 5th record only.

3. In your case if 5th record is ok,

then it will be blank.

4. This happens bcos CALL TRANSACTION is called in a

loop 5 times.

5. U will have to , after each call transaction,

use anothr table just like bdcmsgcoll,

and append it to this new table.

hi

Thanks

But I used Format_message too

I want to know what type of errors we get in real time when doing BDC

Thanks

Hi again,

1. what type of errors we get in real time when doing BDC

We get only those errors(if any)

which the transaction will issue

while doing data entry.

2. There are no separate set of errors

which will specially occur when doing bdc !

Hi sandya,

i think BDCMSGCOLL will capture the errors in the recorded fields. if you give wrong file name and if it exist in the presentation server then it will be captured and the the data that will be placed in the material field. the datas placed might be wrong that why it will be giving the error.

and did you use format_message function module to convert the messages to text.

i think in that you will get type of error.

Hi,

I think u should save Error Message each time after Call Transaction, like:

  CALL TRANSACTION TCODE USING BDCDATA
                   MODE   CTUMODE
                   UPDATE CUPDATE
                   MESSAGES INTO MESSTAB.

  IF MESSTAB[] IS NOT INITIAL.
      READ TABLE MESSTAB INDEX 1.
      MOVE-CORRESPONDING MESSTAB TO ITAB_ERR.
      COLLECT ITAB_ERR.  
  ENDIF.
