Regarding LSMW

[Former Member]

Hi Experts,

I have a problem with lsmw. I uploading the data from flat file to sap system through lsmw using Batch input Recording.

My problem is, In my flat file, i Have a header like....

Pernr       begda          endda        First name    Last Name     Status
20          200812/11   99991231       Sai               Babu             1

Now, At the time of running, i dont want to pull the Header line into the LSMW and sap screens.

where it is exactly deleting the header line in LSMW.

If it is Session method or CT method, I can delete the header line after transfer the data into the buffer. But, in LSMW, where can i delete the header line of flat file.

Please help me in this regard...

Thanks in advance....

hi,

In LSMW you can do this in SPECIFY FILES step.

double click on where you are giving the file and there in file structure you

have 2 options.

if you select first radiobutton you can use headers in file or

you can use second one.

Hi,

Try specifying transaction number as 2 in select-options low value and last record in select options high value in the step READ DATA of LSMW.

Say for example there as 20 record in the file , specify 2 to 20 in the transaction number in READ DATA step.

Hi,

Is there any identifier to demarcate the header record and item records in your data?

are you using the same structure or different structure for storing both header and item records?

Hi Sai,

In 'Specify Files' step

under 'File Structure' check the check box 'Field Names at Start of File'.

In LSMW at the time of specifying the file location, there is a check box to indicate if the file contains Headers. Check this.
