ASCII_ADAPTER_ASCAD - Maintain Data Conversion Control Table
General Material Data Addresses (Business Address Services)This documentation is copyright by SAP AG.
Table SMO7ASCAD is the main control table for converting data.
In table SMO7ASCAD, you specify information such as the name of the temporary CDB table, the name of the ASCII file, or the name of the structure definition table. It contains one entry per conversion direction and temporary CDB table.
The table is empty to start with and must be filled with data as part of the customizing process for each ASCII file to be processed. This can be done either manually or automatically.
Entries in this table dominate the settings in the parameter file CRMASCAD.
Before you can work with the ASCII Adapter, you have to fill table SMO7ASCAD for each ASCII file to be processed. This can be done either manually or automatically. Automatically generated entries can afterwards be changed manually.
Example
Filling the Table Manually:
You have two options for manually filling table SMO7ASCAD.
- Via the main menu of the CRM System:
- Choose Tools-> ABAP Workbench -> Development → Dictionary.
- Enter SMO7ASCAD as the database table you want to edit.
- Make the required entries.
- Via the command field of the CRM System:
- Call up transaction ASC2.
- In the displayed dialog box, enter the name of the temporary table for which you want to fill table SMO7ASCAD.
- ChooseTable information, enter the required information into the displayed dialog box and save your entries.
Filling the Table Automatically:
To fill table SMO7ASCAD automatically, you have to call up the ASCII adapter in order to start automatic generation.
- Go to the MS-DOS command mode and call up the ASCII Adapter as follows:
-
CRMASCAD
-G [[<table-2>]… ]
-
The value of
determines the kind of generation (see table below). Elements in brackets ([ ]) are optional.
- Specify at least one table for the automatic generation. If you specify a table that has already been generated, this table will be skipped (which means that it will not be overwritten).
The information required for an automatic generation is partly information on the specified table(s) that comes from the corresponding database catalog, and partly information coming from parameter file CRMASCAD.
To be able to fill table SMO7ASCAD automatically, you need to have an insert permission for this table.
Table SMO7ASCAD requires the following entries:
