Alert Monitor with exceptions in WAD

Hi All,
I'm trying to use alert monitor in web application designer to show two queries with red, green and yellow statuses. In my web template, I have inserted two queries in two tables (both queries have exceptions) and alert monitor as web item. In properties(context menu), I choose infocube on which these queries are build,marked the red, yellow, green status ,mentioned them in list of columns entry and checked the display toolbar entry.
When I execute , It shows the display of alert monitor drop down box with functions (from Info provider, info area, queries..etc) and alert boxes for red, yellow and green. If I check on red box and uncheck other boxes, still I'm seeing all records with other status as well. There is no change in the query result if I switch from red , green or yellow. And also I am not seeing how many rows of red , green or yellow alerts which i should as i have selected in the list of columns entry.
I've set the exceptions in Reporting Agent for these two queries also.
Any Idea why I'm not getting the functionality of alert monitor. Do I need to set up something for alert monitor to work in reporting agent or in alert management in order to use .Am i missing something in configuration
Any ideas and solutions..
Thanks in advance,

LauQ,
Did you figure out the solution?? Is it something to do with the settings of exceptions in reporting agent. I strongly feel so, as the configuration for alert monitor is straight forward in WAD. There is a How to Guide document on..How to Intergrate BW reporting agent with Alert Framework. Did you have a look at it. I'm glancing it right now.. You can find in sdn.. May be that helps.. Please let me know if you get something... I'm still working on this issue..
Thanks ,

How set up alert Monitor with available to promise profile?!

Gurus,
I read a lot of notes about alert profile but I ´ve been in doubt.
I set the monitor alert in /sapapo/amon1:
- Selected alert type
- Selected some products and my allocation
- Assigned alert profile - defined the bucket
Check instruction:
- Activated "ATP Alert Act."
I vent seen any place to assign my alert profile in /sapapo/bop. Is it possible or necessary?
When I redetermine the alerts for my profile in /sapapo/amon1 any alerts are showed.
I don´t want to use macros to create alert.
I created a scenary to see an alert:
My scenary
Availability: 100
Order confirmed: 100
I changed my orders to 50.
Availability: 50
Order confirmed: 100
Execute alert monitor
Result: No warning
I´m glad for your attention...
Best Regards!

Raising 2 alerts for 1 exception

I am working on raising an alert using Alert framerwork
with exception reporting and reporting agent .
I have a query ( has projects ID & Approavl ate as free chars.) where we want to raise the alerts for the projects approved in last 30 days. I have defined a exception for this and it is working fine.
I also created a reporting agent on this query linking to alert categories. Rep. agent has Project ID and Approval date in the "Drilldown charecterstics"
Problem:
Query has only one exception , but when I run the reporting agent it is raising two alerts .
Appreciate your help.

Hi ,
If I remove the exception in the query,it is not raising the alert .

Alert Monitor Threshold and Information, Warning and Alerts

Hi,
I defined a Forecast Alert Profile that is supposed to display the MAPE Alert in the Alert Monitor when the MAPE for the said selection is > x %. This x as I understand is maintained in the Diagnosis group of the Master Forecast Profile.
I now try to make use of this Threshold Value Description "Variance is > %. and define >(x-10) % but less than x % as information, x % as warning and >(x +20) as error but I am unable to make out how the alerts are determined and whether these values are indeed read (threshold >)
Secondly my Alert may have been originally based on particular selection(s)- some in FG, some in BG. Some of these selections may not be assigned to the Alert Profile and the Planner may not remember at what level the forecast was carried out to begin with. So my query is at what level of selection is the Alert generated when there is no selection assigned to the Alert Profile ?
Thanks
Amit

Hi, I was hoping someone answers. It was not a profound question I believe
I am also curious to know the same with respect SDP Macro based alerts. When a Macro Alert is triggered at Cell Val > y % and it is called a "warning" per the macro definition, of what good is the information, warning and alert threshold values in the Alert Monitor ?
Does it mean the value 'Y' that I defined in macro step as 'threshold' for alert or process message can be more 'freely' defined in the alert monitor with three distinct values ? I tried testing but I am unable to conclude.
Please help me understand
Thanks

Hi,
SAP supports up to IE6.0 and has delivered that IE 7 and 8 are having quite a few issues with web reporting. Check SAP notes to resolve it.

Alert monitor for Forecast Exceptions?

Does Flexible Planning offer any type of Alert monitor for flagging Forecast Exceptions? We're creating a statistical forecast in MC94 and would like to set up some automatic triggers or alerts. I know APO has this functionality, but I have yet to be able to find any type of exception reporting.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

In Alert Monitor - Is it possible to add Price or Cost as Column Value?

Hey Folks
I am trying to define a methodology to manage and work on the exceptions in the Alert Monitor,
and I would like to carry on the ABC analysis based on Price or Cost?
The alert monitor was defined prior to my time on this latest project.
Would it be simple to add or difficult to link the price from values from whatever table they come from,
to show as column fields? so they ABC analysis can use that column as the Ratio one?
If anyone think this is feasible let me know.
thanks for your feedback
JD Loera

Hello!
Awesome, thanks for the response, I will put that in my project list and will link with the Basis/ABAP team.
Cheers!
Business Procees note to all out there in *APO DP Business Processes and Planning.*
If you use the alert monitor, as you know you can define there macro generated alerts and analyise through the variances from Target and Actual Values.
Also, you can still use the ABC analysis there, to identify A B C of the results that you get ( in the example above, % of variance )
However, from a Business Process bang for your buck and time. By adding the Material Cost or Price, the Demand Planner or SNP Planner can also do the ABC analysis based on the price as well, and really then identify the items with higher value to work with,as those are important to always keep in check. (ABC from the fiancial point of view so to speak)
Cheers all, worth to think about for your own Alert Monitor processes.

Alert monitor in PHP

Hi
I've been trying to build an alert monitor in PHP that gets data from the CCMS. I'm new to SAP but not to PHP.
The saprfc works just fine and I'm able to test function modules with the saprfc_test.php. I've seen the tutorial on how to get alert data (CPU utilization) from the CCMS. And it works fine. So what's the problem you ask?
If anyone here have tried the SAP CCMS plugin for Nagios they know that all you need (almost all you need) is to provide the long name of the MTE e.g SID\system_SID_01\R3Services\Background\AbortedJobs and you get the alert message that you see in RZ20.
I've found several function modules that gives me the value of a monitor leaf node, but only the ones with a number as a value (percent CPU usage, MB disk space left +++). If I try to get data from e.g AbortedJobs i get nothing.
I've found one function module that gives me the data that e.g AbortedJobs shows (SALR_MTE_STAT_MSG_READ_CUR_VAL) but this one won't of course show leaf nodes with numbers...
The nagios plugin uses:
BAPI_SYSTEM_MON_GETTREE
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETMLCURVAL
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETPERFCURVAL
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETSMVALUE and
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETTXTPROP
I'm having trouble trying any of these in my test application. The return array is:
Array
    [TYPE] => E
    [ID] => RA
    [NUMBER] => 346
    [MESSAGE] => Problems accessing database (function 'BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETMLCURVAL')
    [LOG_NO] =>
    [LOG_MSG_NO] => 0
    [MESSAGE_V1] => BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETMLCURVAL
    [MESSAGE_V2] =>
    [MESSAGE_V3] =>
    [MESSAGE_V4] =>
    [PARAMETER] =>
    [ROW] => 0
    [FIELD] =>
    [SYSTEM] =>
Someone have to have tried to build a custom CCMS monitor of some sort?
My idea is that the leaf nodes I want to pull from the CCMS is defined in an XML file:
<SYSTEM>SolMan</SYSTEM>
<MONITOR>Aborted Jobs</MONITOR>
<MEASUREMENT>-</MEASUREMENT>
<MTSYSID>SID</MTSYSID>
<MTMCNAME>system_SID_01</MTMCNAME>
<MTNUMRANGE>032</MTNUMRANGE>
<MTUID>0000000003</MTUID>
<MTCLASS>102</MTCLASS>
<MTINDEX>0000002308</MTINDEX>
<EXTINDEX>0000000050</EXTINDEX>
and then I can list them as I want on the screen.
I really hope someone can come with some pointers and shed some light on this. It would be much appreciated.

Ok, at least now I have something working. But it has its limitations. This could probably be written as a wiki entry, but I don't feel that the code is ready for the public yet. This is used against our Solution Manager which monitors all other systems.
This is how I have build it:
Everything I want to monitor is defined in an XML file
<monitor>
<System>
   <SID>
     <set>
       <MONITOR>Shortdumps</MONITOR>
       <TYPE>alert</TYPE>
       <MTSYSID>SID</MTSYSID>
       <MTMCNAME>system_SID_01</MTMCNAME>
       <MTNUMRANGE>010</MTNUMRANGE>
       <MTUID>0000001797</MTUID>
       <MTCLASS>102</MTCLASS>
       <MTINDEX>0000000174</MTINDEX>
       <EXTINDEX>0000000008</EXTINDEX>
      </set>
    </SID>
</System>
</monitor>
where you have as many customers as you want, each customer has of course several systems (CRM, ERP, BW) and within each system everything that should be monitored is defined within the <set> tag. <MONITOR> is a label defined by the user, <TYPE> can be alert, disk or availability. This is only for grouping similar monitors together and list them as I want.
The rest inside the <set> is information SAP needs.
If a monitor set is disk or availability I call the
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETPERFCURVAL
to get the integer value (e.g. 3454, as in 3454MB free disk space).
No mater what kind of type the monitor is I call
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETGENPROP
to get the alert value (1,2 or 3).
For now I'm only interested in yellow or red alerts so if the alert level is >1 I call
BAPI_SYSTEM_MTE_GETALERTS
to get the alert data I need to look up the alert message.
The alert message is taken from
BAPI_SYSTEM_ALERT_GETDETAILS
The results are written to an XML file with the same structure as the input XML file except the data inside the <set> contains the data I want to show.
<monitor>
<System>
    <SID>
      <set>
        <MONITOR>Free Data Space</MONITOR>
        <TYPE>alert</TYPE>
        <ALERT>3</ALERT>
        <MSG>Some message from SAP CCMS here</MSG>
        <ALRELEVVAL>the integer value if type is disk or availability</ALRELEVVAL>
      </set>
    </SID>
</System>
</monitor>
Now that I have the data I can list it any way I want. E.g. grouping everything with type disk together to have an own place on the screen with disk monitoring or listing all alerts within the same System and SID.
This is of course not an optimal solution. Right now I have 56 monitor sets which takes about 20 seconds to check even though the SAP system is on the local network. There are also no alerts in the system right now so none of the function modules within the IF alert > 1 are checked either. If there are a lot of alerts the time will increase drastically. Guess I need to ask an ABAP person...
Any ideas / improvements are appreciated

Alert Monitoring

Hi Experts,
I am dealing with a situation, wherein i need to monitor alerts. But, I am not sure which of the alerts are automated. Could you please suggest which of the following Tcodes could be automated??
SMQ1
SM58
SXMB_MONI / SM37
WE19/ WE05/ BD87
Seeburger-Idoc Adapter
SEEBURGER-EDI FOLDER
SEEBURGER-MONITOR
/SAPSLL/SPL_ST01
/SAPSLL/CNTRY
/SAPSLL/SPL_BLRL
/SAPSLL/SPL_BLRL_exp
/SAPSLL/SPL_BLBPLO
Please suggest also, how to define them.
Thanks & Regards,
Sushama

You set up alerts so that in case of an exception during message processing, the system will inform you. You can recieve alerts by email,fax or sms. Also, you will see the alerts in you alert inbox.
Now you can set up these alerts from BPM such as by using Control step (value ThrowAlert)
Prerequisites for alert configurations:
1. RZ21: Alert management must be activated for PI infrastrucure.
2. Define alert categories with paramers like text,expiry date and time.. using tx:ALRTCATDEF
Also you can refer the below link:

How do i run an external monitor with my macbook and change settings so that when i close the lid the signal to the monitor is not lost and i can continue using the mac with a mouse and a wireless keyboard?

How do i run an external monitor with my macbook and change settings so that when i close the lid the signal to the monitor is not lost and i can continue using the mac with a mouse and a wireless keyboard?

No, nothing will prevent the computer from going to sleep when you close its display except third-party hacks that are designed to do exactly that. I strongly advise against using any of those, as they may interfere with successful entry into clamshell mode (and they carry other downside risks as well). Just wait until the computer is asleep (with its sleep light pulsing), then press any key on the keyboard. It sounds as though your setup is working as it's designed to do.

Questions on Alert monitor

Hi,
I have few questions on alert monitor.
1. If we create an alert and have it as default macro, does it display in interactive planning book without a alert profile assignment? or should we assign an alert profile to see alerts in planning book. I remember that we just need alert profile if we need to check the alerts in a separate screen for our convenience.
2. Is alert profile assignment specific to a user? If that's so, then how we assign different profiles to different users? any transaction? or are they specific to a selection or planning book or version?
3. In Application specific alert profile, in SDP tab, under "SDP - Database Macro Alerts", I see few alerts types apart from standard ones. These were actually our previous alert macros. How did they get created like a alert type?
4. I created a simple macro with change color of cell to red if a condition is satisfied. Also raise an alert for that and assigned it to default. When I go back to the SDP94 screen and run the macro, my cells are highlighted as red whenever the condition is satisfied but when I click on the alerts icons, I get a blue information message "No alerts exist for your selection". When I click on the icon, it gives me a window saying " Internal error analyzing SDP alert".
Can somebody help me understand what's going wrong?
Thanks.

I think you can select that standard type.
However since it was SAP delivered, we chose not to, and instead created more line items in SPRO with text such as "Alert Message 1" etc. We created numbers ranging from 9001 to 9010. While defining the custom alert, under alert type, it showed up these numbers that were setup in SPRO. I would assume that just like you pick up 9001, you should be able to pick up 4100 or 4101 (alert type numbers) which is the standard status alert. If you run out of the numbers, you would definitely need to add more in SPRO settings. Remember the alert text is picked from SPRO, where you can change and make it more meaningful so that users can do sorting on those alerts.

How can we display Alerts based on Exceptions in BI7

Hi,
<b>How can we display Alerts based on Exceptions in BI7?</b> My requirement is a dashboard kind of scenario where the alerts will be displayed using WAD in Portal.
In 3.5, we used to schedule the alerts from the Reporting Agent and display that using the Alert Webitem in Web Application Designer. But I couldn't find the Reporting Agent and the Alert Webitem in BI7. I would like to know how we can do Exception Reporting in BI7. I appreciate your suggestions/comments. Thanks in advance.
