Hello,

I'm having the following error message while trying to upload a multicash electronic bank statement in tx ff.5 "ISO code is not assigned to a currency key in the valid time period" (message no. B1882). I'm using EUR as currency key.

However the iso currency code (EUR) exists in tx OY03:

The same issue ocurrs while uploading a electronic bank statement using USD (the client currency) instead of EUR.

Any idea to solve the problem?

Thank you very much in advance.

David.

hi,

i put a start condition into a z-workflow -> i only want to start the workflow if the transaction code not contains the value (contains pattern) PR05.

It does not matter which condition i put in there > the workflow is not started anymore when putting a starting condition into it. see screenshot: i have tried to set the condition as NP (contains NOT pattern) and *XXXXXX* as value. So this condition is ALWAYS TRUE, as the transaction does never contain XXXXXXX in the name.

The workflow is not started anymore ! when i delete the starting condition it works

Hello,

I am a beginner on ByDesign development and i need help.

i want to create a list like that one joined on the picture.

Thanks on advance.

Best Regards,

From a different discussion I learned that the old MDX function STRTOVALUE has been added in BW 7.4 SP12.

We recently upgraded to BW 7.4 SP 14 at one of my clients. I have a requirement to implement a custom measure 'AVGYTD'.  From SE37 BAPI_MDPROVIDER_GET_FUNCTIONS does list STRTOVALUE, however when I try to use it in the most straightforward way I can think of it won't save and I get an MDX error.

Here is my first attempt, which saves ok (syntactically OK) but is not correct because it just sums up the relevant periods but does not divide by the number of periods:

'IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="INC",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%],[%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),-[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="EXP",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%], [%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="AST",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%], [%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="LEQ",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%], [%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),-[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),-[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA]))))';SOLVE_ORDER=3

If I change the first expression (for ACCTYPE = "INC") to add "/ (STRTOVALUE("3")) as shown here I get an error:

'IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="INC",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%],[%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),-[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(STRTOVALUE("3")),IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="EXP",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%], [%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="AST",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%], [%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),IIF([%ACCOUNT%].CURRENTMEMBER.PROPERTIES("2/CPMB/ACCTYPE")="LEQ",SUM(PERIODSTODATE([%TIME%].[%TIMEYEARLEVEL%], [%TIME%].CURRENTMEMBER),-[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA])/(3),-[MEASURES].[/CPMB/SDATA]))))';SOLVE_ORDER=3

Of course dividing by hardcoded 3 is not correct; I was just trying to figure out if STRTOVALUE is even working.  Initially I was trying STRTOVALUE on the MONTHNUM property.

Can you see what I am doing wrong here?  Has anyone successfully used STRTOVALUE on SP12 or greater?

Thank you,

Hi All,

We are configuring APP in our company.We have already done the configuration for INCOMING PAYMENT i.e Payment received from CUSTOMER to BANK and OUTGOING PAYMENT i.e Payment made to VENDOR from BANK.

For Example:

CASE 1 :We made the payment through F-48 or through F-53  and print the cheque through FBZ5.

Or through : T-Code - F110.

CASE 2 :Now we want to do the same for GL to GL ( i.e fund transfer from one bank to other bank or made direct payment from BANK  to EXPENSE Account).

Please advise ,is it possible to configure the APP for CASE 2.

Anil kumar.

Hi Experts ,

I am using the option to generate notifications to "Third-Party

Components" sending SNMP TRAP.

We found that the SNMP TRAP sent with "QUOTES" limiting the fields.

Example :

snmp_vals=[''SID~ABAP'',''T_SYSTEM'',''C81F66FA89421EE5A985611A46185566'',''20151216'',''192724'',''ABAP".

It's possible to eliminate  this "quotes"  ?

Hello World,

we are running an upgrade on an ERP system (Linux SLES12 & MaxDB 7.9), with target EHP7ERP6.

For some reason phase ACT_TRANS (activation of customer objects) takes in excess of 10 hours(!!!)

There seem to be no errors in the log files and the system is doing something (activity in SM50 and "top" shows some stuff happenning on OpSys level, too), its just happening very, very slowly.

There is never more than 20% load on system resources (RAM, disk, a.s.o.), no excessive swapping and never more than 2 or 3 disp+work processes active at once.

For me it looks like the system is activating one object at a time and that very, very slowly.

Is there any way to speed this process up?

For this is the test run for your production box and with 10+ hours for that phase alone, I am afraid we can't keep our downtime window.

As alway, thx in advance for all helpful replies.

Hi Experts,

We have a customer requirement where we want to have similar features like Advance shipping notification and PO response in SRM purchase order. Note: SUS is not activated and we are in SRM 7.03 SP10 Extended classic scenario with PDP.

We are looking for solution where buyer can login and update the PO on behalf of supplier about the material status (We don't want to give any access to supplier). Is It possible to achieve this functionality as any of standard SRM functionality?

Please suggest.

Thank You.

Hello,

we can have cases with cumulated ATP negative .

The purpose is to displays products that have a cumulated negative ATP or that will reach a cumulated negative ATP quantity somewhere in the coming weeks

A kind of "early warning monitor on ATP problems"

I had a look at Note 500051 that detail the different Alert type per category ( ATP, PPDS)  but I did not find this kind of alert

Can some one provide recommandation on this topic ?

Kind regards

Hi all,

We implemented Online W2 functionality this past year and it worked great with a few minor issues and one of them is that we can't see to generate Online W2C.

We used transaction PAUY, Subtype YANA and enter data wage type /701 withholding tax adjustments in IT221.

We also have set the date under the Generate/Filing dates in PU19 W2's so it should allow us to generate W2C's.
But it does not work.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Duong

Hi there Experts,

We receive from BCM system CAD with Call recording file name. Unfortunately, this link is not visible anymore after contact end (in interaction record, contact history etc.)

The only possible place is transaction history of created interaction record, but I am not quite sure if this link correspond to the actual call record.

The question is – where we can see exact file name (as it is in CAD), but after contact end?

This is the first in a new blog series to unveil "SAP's best kept secret..." Event Management provides functionality that all companies need yet most companies do not have... Why is that the case? I'm not sure as to the exact reason but I'm going to do my best to "unveil the secret....". All the content in this series are snippets from the, soon to be published, 2nd edition of my book on SAP EM. So let's get started....

SAP EM (EM) manages, tracks and monitors events (initial and ongoing), providing real-time visibility to the status of a business process.  The capability exists to alert all stakeholders of the content of these messages, thus providing the status of the process. SAP EM bridges the gap between 'The Plan' and 'The Execution of the Plan', providing visibility to any discrepancies between the two.

The ability to monitor events, in real time and in their relationship to 'The Plan', enables the management of processes by exception.  Thus, an organization can manage only those processes that are not behaving according to 'The Plan' and let the remaining 'standard' processes proceed with no active involvement.  The 'perfect' process could be described as one where no intervention is needed to correct any bottlenecks because it meets the customer’s needs and company’s expectations.

Exceptions can be either good or bad.  For example, if a sales order is being tracked at the line item level, and there is a spike in the ordering of a product that is above the norm, an alert can be sent to the marketing team to solicit more sales of the product.  Opportunities, as well as exceptions, are easily uncovered by an SAP EM solution during the monitoring of a business process.

What it is…

• SAP EM tracks real time, actual events and matches them against predefined planned or expected events.  Unexpected events, or those not predefined in the system, will also be captured in SAP EM.  The tracking of an actual event provides visibility to the detailed activities of an overall process enabling more effective process management.
• Both expected and unexpected events can initiate a change in the 'status' of the tracked process.  This status is searchable in the system.  For those with authority or the correct role, the visibility of the status for a business process is available at the time the event occurs.
• SAP EM allows proactive monitoring of the statuses and, when the process is misaligned, immediately set corrective action in motion.  There is no need to wait for manual intervention to know there is a problem ...  “React immediately to issues and resolve them while they are manageable.”
  • Time to Insight: The time between when an issue occurs and when the realization of the issue is made. i.e. How long does it take to discover an issue? Standard SAP EM functionality is used to collapse the time to insight.
• SAP EM improves efficiency in the supply chain by reducing the reaction time to fix bottlenecks and leverage opportunities.  The module accomplishes this through tight integration with SAP Business Workflow and the SAP Alert Framework.
  • Time to Action: Once an issue is discovered, what is the time taken between realizing there is an issue and launching the appropriate corrective action to address it? Standard SAP EM integration with SAP Business Workflow and the Alert Framework is used to collapse the time to action.
• SAP EM provides the ability to analyze processes with performance metrics and compliance requirements through its integration with SAP NetWeaver Business Warehouse (BW). When running SAP EM on top of SAP HANA then you can leverage the power of HANA analytics to show real-time analytics of what’s going on in your business processes.
• In order to reduce the implementation effort for SAP EM, a set of pre-configured scenarios, called visibility processes, are delivered. Leverage these standard pieces of configuration and code to jumpstart any SAP EM implementation.
• SAP EM is the system of record for business events, i.e., it is the Business Process Event Repository, whether they be events related to a sales order, delivery, purchase order, production order, service notification, etc. This is critical to understand and key to the value of SAP EM within an organization…  An event that occurs within one process can correlate to one or more other processes. This event could affect the status of it’s associated processes, thereby providing both visibility and exception management to those processes as well. This, in turn, provides improved time to insight and action for all the associated processes and not just the one in which the issue occurred.
• SAP EM forms the backbone of the SAP Object Event Repository, which is the EPCIS (Electronic Product Code Information System) compliant event repository for serialized items.
• SAP EM has become the de facto place for capturing, storing and reporting ‘Track and Trace’ data.  Products shipped with a unique transportation tracking number can be traced by SAP EM, as this is where the information is stored.  The tracking information can then be related to other business processes that need this data.  For example, to learn the status of an outbound FedEx® delivery, the tracking number assigned by the carrier can be used by SAP EM as the identifier for capturing movements of the package as it reaches its final destination.  SAP EM can then be used to determine whether the product is going to be delivered on time or not. A short definition of what Track and Trace means:
  • “Track” refers to the “Present” tense in terms of status. Where is my product or process now? Who has it? In what condition is it in? When am I expected to get it?
  • “Trace” refers to the “Past” tense in terms of status. Where has my product or process been? Who has had it? Was it always in good condition? Did the person get their product on time? “It allows companies to manage by exception rather than monitoring processes that are running smoothly, to be able to recognize and react to unplanned events in the supply chain, to provide a single point of access for collaborative processes, and finally to measure business partners’ performance. In addition, managing supply chain risks require taking a specific perspective on the supply chain and the involved business partners, locations and dependencies on different levels of the supply chain.”  (Diessner & Rosemann, 2008)

What it is not…

• SAP EM is not an operational system to capture transactions or maintain master data, although it does take events from transactional systems, such as SAP ERP, as input.  The only data it can capture is that of a manual event; SAP EM can be used to capture those events in order to maintain end-to-end visibility to your process. From a master data perspective, it only allows for maintaining master data for locations of events and partners to events.
• It is not a planning system or tool such as SAP APO (Advanced Planning & Optimization) - although it constantly monitors processes and evaluates them against 'The Plan'.
• It is not a data warehouse such as SAP BW (Business Warehouse), although it does ultimately provide data to SAP BW or SAP HANA analytics for analytical reporting. On its own, SAP EM is merely a repository for information.  The true value of the system lies in what it can do with the data fed into it.  SAP EM has the ability to evaluate events from transactional systems, whether they be SAP systems or not, and make highly intelligent determinations that add value to a business process.

In the next blog we will describe where exactly SAP EM fits in the SAP solution landscape.

Hello Gurus,

I kindly request for urgent hints to resolve this challenge.

The clients wants me to implement a logic in a Process control workflow, whereby after each approval, a custom table created for reporting purpose, will be updated with information from the workflow step, i.e workitem number, name of approver etc.

I am new to Process Control workflow but I have studied it very well and I have good picture of how it works, but I am however stuck on WHERE to implement the logic for this request.  Will I have to implement the logic in an expression that calls a FM ? If yes, can someone please guide me on how? remember that the custom table will be updated after  each approval.

We are currently running on SRM 7.0 and have used standard Workflow templates for the process. Do forgive me if I have posted this in the wrong section.

In anticipation of your help.

Aham.

Hi Experts,

I would like to trigger a new availability check in delivery when the document is saved.

In my scenario the user deletes the delivery block (block for pick and GI) in the header data.

When the delivery block is deleted, a new ATP is needed in order to confirm again the quantity in the document.

The new check should be the same already triggered by the system when the storage location is changed.

I can use also user exit but i don't know what is the correct one.

Someone has a suggestion for me?

Please help me.

Best regards.

Sandro

Hi PM Guru,

Normally in PM order, we enter the external service by choosing control key PM02.

From memory, there is a pop-up screen of External info that directs us to purchasing info.

But here we have to manually click the "External " button after chaning the control key to PM02.

Is there any setting required and missing here?

Pls kindly advise.

Sally
