Upload Master data into Info object

[joerg_arndt]

Hi Friends,

is it possible to upload master into an info object.

I know when I flag the info object as "info area" I can upload texts and attributes by data sources.

But is there a procedure for a normal info object.

Let say.

I have an Info Object Country(char, 3) and a file like

Country;Description;Language

001; Germany;EN

002; Poland;EN

003;Norway;EN

004......

120;Hungary;DE

Is there allready a procedure or do I have to write a program?

Thanks in advance for you help.

Hi Jimbob,

Normally your Characteristic InfoObject are set to become master data if you tick on the;

"With master data"

You can also load text description if you tick on the

"With text"

Both can be found in the Master data/texts tab.<br /> <br />

Now a prerequisite for you to load data in a BW standard way is by going to the InfoProvider tab of RSA1 then right click>insert Characteristic as InfoProvider in the infoarea where you would like to see you master data.

Based from your example your datasource will be your flat file.

So you need to create a flat file data source with the structure of your file.

Once you have this already you can create a transformation under texts of your master data.

(Expand master data, right click at texts&gt;create transformation)

Then thats it.

You can now load your data from your file, just update the infopack and DTP correspondingly on how you would like to do your data loading.

Let me know in case you have further clarifications on the step.

Hope this helps, Thanks a lot.
