Requirement: Loading the purchasing long text for the given materials.
The flat file in our example contains the long text for multiple materials. The header record
contains the material information (Material Number and Text ID) and is identified by the starting
character ‘H’. The item records contain the long text to be uploaded for the material and the
starting character ‘I’ identifies the record. See the screenshot below:
Object - 0001
Method - 0001
Create two structures one for Header and one for Item. The item structure will be at lower
level for the Header
3. Maintain Source Fields
Define the fields as per the flat file structure. In both the structures the first field must be
identifier. Create the identifier field of character 1 and specify the identifying field content 'H'
for header structure and 'I' for item stricture as shown below.
Here the Field LINE of item structure is char 132, so each text line from the input file must be
less than or equal to the length 132.
Assign the header source structure to the Header target structure and Item source structure
to Item target structure.
Header mapping
For NAME and ID map the source fields MATNR and TEXID respectively.
For OBJECT and SPRAS pass the constants. To enter a constant value for any field, place
the cursor on the field and enter a value by clicking on constant button available in the
application toolbar.
Item mapping
For TEXTFORMAT pass the constant '*' and for the TEXTLINE map the input field LINE of
the ITEM structure.
6. Specify Files
Select the delimiter 'Tabulator', if the fields in the input file are separated by tab.
7. Assign Files
8. Read Data
Result: The Long text will be updated for the given Materials
