Data Transfer#

Options#

1. Direct Input (BMV0)
2. Data Transfer Workbench (SXDA)
3. ALE/XI
4. Legacy System Migration Workbench (trx LSMW)
5. CALL TRANSACTION USING
6. Batch Input

See also Programming with the Background Processing System

Most used are option 5 + 6. See the difference here.

Batch Input#

• You can import data with "Batch Input Sessions".
• Batch Input are processed the same way as if the data are entered manually, so you need to care also about possible pop-ups occuring in the screens. The Dynamic Actions created with PA40 are not processed, though.

• Menu > System > Services > Batch Input > ...
• SAP Menu > Tools > Administration > Monitor > Batch Input
• Transactions:

x.SM35	To view and process
x.SHDB	Transaction Recorder
r.RSBDCDRU	List content of batch input
r.RSBDCSUB	general execution report, which can be wrapped in your own reports
r.RSBDCDAT	Batch-Input: Export und Import von Mappen
r.RSBDCTL6	Mappen löschen
r.RSBDC_REORG	Mappen löschen (nur "Processed")
r.ZHRG_SM35_ERROR_EMPLOYEE	Fehleranalyse (customized)
t.APQI	Queue INFO DEFINITION (DATATYP=BDC, GROUPID=Mappenname)
t.APQD	Queue DATA DEFINITION
t.APQL	Logging
f.BDC_OBJECT_READ	Lesen BI Mappe
f.HR_T588M_GET_DYNPRO	Get Dynpro number dynamically

• Some fields like MA-Grp/Krs or PersBer/TeilBer can only be changed via an action (PA40), but generally you can use batch inputs on all screens.

Hintergrund / Vordergrund#

SM65	Prüfen, ob Batchprozesse grundsätzlich laufen bzw. Server aktiv ist

Grundsätzlich gibt es aber auch zahlreiche Unterschiede zwischen BI Online und Hintergrundverarbeitung, siehe hier

Error Message 00/329#

Message="&, Erzeugen Mappe .&. ist nicht zulässig, da letzte Mappe noch aktiv"
en="BDC_OPEN_GROUP, create session .CPPB4N1104. not allowed, as last session is still active"
=> The map name is a temporary one, which you will not find anywhere (t.APQ*). The executing report is opening a map really twice. Check if there is an iteration in the report where the name is not changing the second time...
=> Or there may be multiple sessions from the user: SCN

Restart a locked batch input job#

see here

Menu > Mappe > Freigeben !

Then the remaining transactions are put into a new session. The processed ones are still available in the protocol.

Message "Server ist nicht aktiv"#

Das liegt nicht am Server, sondern an den Rechten. Bitte den Benutzer der Spalte "Berechtigung" prüfen.
