    Hi Divya,

    This is probaly due to incorrect flat file contents.

    Preapre your flat file data in this way.

    1)Copy your flat file data into MS Excel.(Note : Each cell holds only one data field, i.e.. <b>200-100</b> ).

    2)Save as ( Text tab delimited).

    In your LSMW <b>Specify file</b> section.

    Select the following.

    <b>Sepearators</b>

    Tabulator

    <b>File Structure</b>

    Field Order matches source strcu defn.

    <b>Code page</b>

    ASCII

    Regards,

    <b>AS</b>

    Hi,

    When you define the file path in the Specify Files option make sure that you have not clicked the option 'Field Names at the Start of File

    If you remove this option then it will work fine.Suppose you do need the field names make sure that the names at the beginning of the file is the same as the field names specified in the Source Structure.

    Hi

    I am not quite sure wat is ur scenario. But may be one of the reason is the field length would not be maintained in the flat file. I mean to say if material no lenth is 13 digits and in ur flat file ur having mat no as 1245, then u have to append 9 blank spaces in this case. In simple what ever data u r having, if it is not upto length, then put remaining spaces to the right.

      Divya,

      1. Make sure the fields in the structure of the lsmw is same as the flat file structure.

      2. refer the size of the fields in flat file and lsmw structure, it should be same.

      3. Do you want to upload materials ?? Which method are you using ..BDC,idoc ?? if you are uploading the material data in the file is not enough.

    Hi Divya,

    Asper your flat file structre when you are selectiong the option for reading the file in LSMW

    Better choose COMMA DELIMITER instead of TAB delimitor

    It will work fine
