After creating the program from SHDB, edit it get the data from the input file.

• use the parameters statement to accept the input of the text file (path):

parameters: p_file like rlgrap-filename.

• Create an internal table that contains the structure of the import file.

data: begin of itab occurs 10,

vendor like lfa1-lifnr,

name like lfa1-name1,

city like lfa1-ort01,

zip  like lfa1-pstlz,

end of itab.

• Move all the values from itab into your BDC program.

• Execute the program.

• Test the results of your program by going to transaction SM35.

• If you forget the name of your session, click on the overview button.  You should be able to see your session in the ‘Session still to be processed’ area.

• Double-click on your session:

• Click on Process.

The system will now walk you through the batch process for your text file.  Notice the values that are given to each field during this walk through.  In the future, you may run this process in ‘Background’ mode if you are importing thousands of records, rather than just a few.  This is a good test to see if your program can successfully run the text file.

When the batch process completes, you will the window with message of Session processing status.

• To check the log, go back to SM35 and click overview.  Select your session and click on Log from the toolbar.

You will see the results from your successful batch input:
