File storage on the Application Server

[Former Member]

Dear all,

I am trying to transfer the a file to the application server . I have noticed a peculiar behavior ,

when i try to send the Invoice to the application server using the Normal route VF03 and print it , it goes thru fine but when i try to do the same using VF02 , i can see that the each invoice is doubled( stores 2 times).

Can't figure out why?

how are you saving the file to app server?

[Former Member]

Using the below code

CONCATENATE '/abc/test/' NAST-PARNR '_'

xxxxxx '_' SY-DATUM '_' SY-UZEIT '.pdf'

INTO LV_FILE1.

• Convert to xstring

LOOP AT OUT_TAB INTO LS_PDF.

ASSIGN LS_PDF TO <X> CASTING TYPE X.

CONCATENATE LV_PDF <X> INTO LV_PDF IN BYTE MODE.

ENDLOOP.

• TRANSLATE LV_FILE1 TO LOWER CASE.

OPEN DATASET LV_FILE1 FOR OUTPUT IN BINARY MODE.

LV_PDF = LV_PDF+0(BYTECOUNT).

TRANSFER LV_PDF TO LV_FILE1.

CLOSE DATASET LV_FILE1.

and where are u calling the code from?

[Former Member]

this is being called in the Print Driver program for the defined O/P type.

in VF02 you are creating a new output message or just clicking issue output to?

see, in VF02 if you are saving the billing document, its possible that the output is repeating. you need to restrict the output not triggering in that case... so 1 for new output message and another is your issue output to functionality

or in VF02, just use issue output to. that would do..

Check if on change you are also triggering the output and via config of condition records also the output is getting triggered...

Secondly after output has been triggered in vf02 check in Message log do you see one output type or two output types getting triggered.

Hi Soumyaprakash,

What u said is true , o/p is repeating.

But the user is not ready send the file via VF03 print o/p.

You need to create a VOFM routine to restrict your output type from triggering.

so what is the user doing? changing the billing document and saving .. right? this case why does he have to print again? the output by itself will take care of the print.. if your scenario is not this(explain a bit about what he is going exactly), then

for VF02 you need to restrict the output if the billing document is not changed. you need to create a VOFM routine and attach it to the output in nace. inside this routine you need to compare the runtime values with database values. if these are same then keep sy-subrc =4. the output will be ignored in this case.

Dear both,

thanx for the support. I have found out the problem. The problem was with the Include "RVADOPFO" every time when user send the file to the application server , the spool generated was being over written. So a statement was to be inserted where in the spool generated never appends to the original one.

MOVE : 'X' TO LVS_ITCPO-TDNEWID has to inserted before the 'OPEN_FORM' CALL FUNCTION.
