hi,

what are the lsmw routines?

[RichHeilman]

Go to the transaction code LSMW. Create a new object. In the "Maintain object attributes" part, you define what standard object routine that you want to use. Here are a few from 46c

 0001   Long texts          
 0010   GL a/c master record

0622   Postal codes        
0630   Districts           
0632   Districts           
0640   Streets             
0642   Streets

0652   P.O. boxes          
0777   Personnel Planning  
0800   Do not use!         

Each object has several methods under it, some for Batch input, or direct input, or some for Create, Change, Delete. It really depends on the object.

hi rich,

thank u for u r quick responce the above all r the different types of objects but i want the lsmw routines.......

Hello

lsmw routines you need to create yourself (these are FORM routines you can call using PERFORM command)

br

Andrzej

[asarat]

These are User defined subroutines an abapper develops and can be used inside a project.

click on the radio button for "Maintain Fixed Values, Translations, User-Defined Routines"

in the LSMW screen after entering the names of the project, sub-project and object.

Click "Execute".

Position Mouse on USer-Defined Routines and click Create Entry in the Menu Bar

This facilitates you to create your own sub-routine which can be used in all objects of the project.

Hope this helps

Please award points accordingly.

The above objects are actually standard SAP programs that take the data and do the standard "routines" to upload the data.

when i entered the transaction LSMW,i found Project,subproject & object in the session window. what exactly does these project,subproject & object mean. how to explorer these things .....i am very new to LSMW concept. Please help me regarding this.

Hi Gaurav,

Here's is what I found about Project, Subproject and object.

"

<i>3.3 Project, Subproject and Object

On the initial screen, you can create a new project, corresponding subprojects and objects via Edit -> Create new entry.

• Project: An ID with a maximum of 10 characters to name your data transfer project. If you want to transfer data from several legacy systems, you may create a project e.g. for every legacy system.

• Subproject: An ID with a maximum of 10 characters that is used as further structuring attribute.

• Object: An ID with a maximum of 10 characters to name the business object.</i>

"

The document where I found this information is:

<b>Data Migration of

Non-SAP Systems to R/3

Quick Introduction to Working with the

Legacy System Migration Workbench

Version 1.7</b>

Basically a project and subproject will make you organize and group the objects you want to transfer to SAP. The object is for example a vendor, customer, asset or whathever thing you want to migrate to SAP.

You should try to find the document I mentioned and read it, when I started using LSMW it cleared my mind with some doubts I was having at the time, hope it helps you.
