download cluster data

[Former Member]

Hi All,

Can we download <b>PCL4</b> cluster data into a file? What are the various options available to download/upload cluster table data.

Hi Ravi,

You will have to write an Abap to download data from a cluster table into a file.

Cluster tables can be treated similar to other tables from UPLAOD/DOWNLOAD stand point.

Few ways to download.

1) As usual using <b>SE16</b> and give the table name and then display the data and goto-->DOwnload..

2) Programatically. Get data in your program using SELECT statements and use GUI_DOWNLOAD values.

Upload I believe, you can use BDC technique in the respective transaction.

Cheers,

Hi John/George,

My requirement is to move the infotype change log data

(REPORT: RPUAUDOO)which is stored in the cluster PCL4 from one system to another system. Can i use GUI_DOWNLOAD/UPLOAD for this?

Ravi,

Yes you can. I do not think there is a way of attaching data of a cluster table to a transport request and then transport it to another system.

So you may need to adopt the perviously mentioned solutions.

Hi ravi,

1. Since PCL4 is a cluster table,

a) we have to use IMPORT statement (see F1 help on it)

to get / read the data

into our internal table.

b) then we can use GUI_DOWNLOAD

to download the data

from our internal table.
