ABAP DATA BASE ACCESS FROM UNIX FILE

PROGRAM TO LOAD A DATABASE TABLE FROM A UNIX FILE

report zmjud001 no standard page heading.

tables: z_mver.

parameters: test(60) lower case default '/dir/judit.txt'.
data: begin of unix_intab occurs 100,
field(53),
end of unix_intab.
data: msg(60).

***open the unix file

open dataset test for input in text mode message msg.
if sy-subrc <> 0.
write: / msg.
exit.
endif.

***load the unix file into an internal table

do.
read dataset test into unix_intab.
if sy-subrc ne 0.
exit.
else.
append unix_intab.
endif.
enddo.

close dataset test.

***to process the data. load the database table

loop at unix_intab.
z_mver-mandt = sy-mandt.
z_mver-matnr = unix_intab-field(10).
translate z_mver-matnr to upper case.
z_mver-werks = unix_intab-field+10(4).
translate z_mver-werks to upper case.
z_mver-gjahr = sy-datum(4).
z_mver-perkz = 'M'.

z_mver-mgv01 = unix_intab-field+14(13).
z_mver-mgv02 = unix_intab-field+27(13).
z_mver-mgv03 = unix_intab-field+40(13).
* to check the data on the screen (this is just for checking purpose)
write: / z_mver-mandt, z_mver-matnr, z_mver-werks, z_mver-gjahr,
z_mver-perkz, z_mver-mgv01,
z_mver-mgv02, z_mver-mgv03.

insert z_mver client specified.

*if the data already had been in table z_mver then sy-subrc will not be
*equal with zero. (this can be *interesting for you - (this list is
*not necessary but it maybe useful for you)
if sy-subrc ne 0.
write:/ z_mver-matnr, z_mver-werks.
endif.
endloop.

NOTES:

1. This solution is recommended only if the database table is NOT a standard SAP database table .
2. In the above mentioned unix file record's size is 53 bytes.
Every record in the unix file as the same size:


10 bytes for material
04 bytes for plant
13 bytes for corrected consumption for January
13 bytes for corrected consumption for February
13 bytes for corrected consumption for March
3. Table Z_MVER


This table was created to store the consumption values for first quarter of the year.
