GUI_DOWNLOAD unknown_dp_error

[Former Member]

Hi

I have a file download some data using GUI_DOWNLOAD. When I download to C:\ on my laptop, it works fine. But when I do the same to a server location I get unknown_dp_error.

My server location looks like :

WAPRDFSFIN01\Finance\Accounts Payable\SAP Archived Data\ZTFIAP35\Current Year\

FileName :Parked_IR_ERR_010908 and will be concatenated by csv.

Any idea wahat this unknown_dp_error means? We are in ECC 6.0 unicode system.

Data on desktop looks like below and has no junks or anything

Vendor is subject to withholding tax 5105628445 20090112 20071231 2008 4550289516 3 EG01

Thanks

Hi check if
WAPRDFSFIN01\ is mapped to your system.... easiest way to find is check in My computer if you can see that drive... if not check with ur basis team...

HI Shobna,

GUI_DOWNLOAD function module is designed to work with presentation server and this function module expects the path you provide to download can be accessed by your laptop or desktop.

Since your //folder looks like either your application server or some server and folder path, it is failing in your example.

My sugesstion is to use OPEN DATASET command to download the contents into //folder.

Best Regards,

Krishna
