CCM automatic upload of CSV files

[Former Member]

Dear CCM experts,

We are running CCM 2.0 installed within SRM and do not have XI in place so we use CSV files to load our catalogs manually via the web. We have to fullfill the requirement to load the catalogs automatically. The files should be "picked up" by a custom build abap program from a file server.

The question is: Are there function modules, abap programs that allow you to load the CSV files from the SRM GUI that we can incorporate in a custom build program? In other words, we load CSV files currently via the web, but which ABAP program/function module runs this process?

Thanks in advance.

We have a requirement to load our catalog

Hi Mahesh,

I know about the latest catalog development being the MDM catalog . However I now have to deliver this requirement in CCM. There must be a way to upload the catalog from the GUI instead of the web. I found this function module /CCM/UPLOAD_FILE_CONTENT but I cannot judge if this one can do the job. Can you see if this one would be appropriate?

Hi

I guess this can be possible, but will require some research and analysis.

<b>You need to create the function module based on your business requirement. Incase you need any help, do let me know.</b>

Have a look at the following function modules, which will help.

<u> CALL FUNCTION 'WS_FILENAME_GET'

CALL FUNCTION 'RSDS_CONVERT_CSV'</u>

Refer to following reports

<u>BBP_NONR3_ADDRESS_UPLOAD

B_DOWNLOAD_EBP_USER_DATA</u>

Class methods ->

<u>/CCM/CL_FILE_UPLOAD_CSV</u>

Meanwhile, Please refer to following SAP OSS notes ->

<u>Note 898011 - Mass upload/dowload - delete item

Hi Spruit,

There is no any ABAP Program to upload the CSV data into CCM and you have to upload manually.

I dont think in future it will be available also because CCM2.0 is the last version in CCM the next Catalog System will be SRM MDM Catalog.

with regards
