New functionality in sap Bi.

Dear Mates,
I have this requirement that I want to store the currency rates on hourly basis in SAP Business Intelligence i.e. get data stored in cube daily.
Can anybody help me out as to how build a mechanism to link the BW to external web to get the latest currency rate on hourly basis.
Ultimately this stored data of currencies will be used for BW report.
Is this possible in BW?
It is something new requirement I've got in BW and sounds interesting.
Your help will be appreciated.
Thanks in Advance,
Kaval Solanki.

Hi,
Approach will be like creating a Data source on top of Function module.
The function module should retrieve data from any external webservice and feed to data source.
Then the datasource and further DTPs can be scheduled every 1 hour.

New functionality in ECC 6.0 and problems during sap implementation

Dear Gurus,
may i know the details of the New functionality in ECC 6.0 on (MM,SD,PP,QM,PS,HR,PM,FI/CO,BI,XI,DMS ) or what is the problems coming at the time of implementation of ECC 6.0.
THANKS AND REGARDS

Ritesh,
Question is bit confusing
may i know the details of the New functionality in ECC 6.0 on (MM,SD,PP,QM,PS,HR,PM,FI/CO,BI,XI,DMS )
That means you are going to upgarde from some earlier version .what is that version ?
Then you might find some specific information at
https://websmp102.sap-ag.de/uda -
>Upgrade Dependency Analyzer
what is the problems coming at the time of *implementation* of ECC 6.0.
If its a new implemenation you will not face problem , but you need to configure everything accordingly.
Problem depends upon what all you are using from standard and customizing.
Above provided link will help you.
Just add up

How to create a new function module?

I was doing the tutorial to create a SAP data widget and the tutorial was using BAPI_FLIGHT_GETLIST to display the data. However, in my system, theres no data in the table SFLIGHT2 and i couldnt populate any data in it.
So i am trying to create my own function module. Can anyone tell me how should i go about doing it?

Cannot see any actions while creating a new function in CC5.2

Hi All,
We recently installed GRC Access Control 5.2.At the backend we are using SAP R/3 4.7.The system has been installed and I am currently trying to configure it.I am trying to create a new function.After chosing a function ID and description when I try to insert an action,it comes up blank for my production server and even if I choose the option "All".
Any assistance in the matter would be greatly appreciated.

Helo Neo,
For making the functions, risks etc, you need to have some standard procedures being followed and up in place. Uploading transactions,, authorization objects and text are one of these.
Thus before you start actually using/implementing the GRC the system, I would like to advice you to go through the documentation for the same, which suggests the step by step procedure for accomplishing the same.
The problem that you have encountered is a bit easy to track as it suggests the Auth objects and texts might not probably be uploaded. But there might be something you have missed while going the procedural way, which may cause a lot of problems while troubleshooting.
Kindly upload the files in the config tab, under "Upload Objects" and let us know if there is still an issue.
Regards,
Hersh.

Calling New Function Module from JAVA ISA b2b

I need to call a new function module which accepts some parameters as input and
returns some result parameters back as output.
These returned value needs to be displayed on the JSP pages of ISA B2B applications.
Can someone please guide me and provide code snippet on how to do this?
Thanks in advance.
Points will be awarded for all relevant and helpful answers.

Stride,
I did this on CRM ISA 4.0... I used the dev and extension guide as a basis - I think the ISA 5.0 guide has the examples and tutorials in a separate document that can also be downloaded from service.sap.com.
Heres some info on how to do it although I can't guarantee this is the full solution or that it will work the same for ISA 5.0, and I will probably forget a lot of stuff as its been a few years since I did it! I also cant guarantee it is the correct way to do it but it worked! Basically, we built a link into the order overview page to display urls to order tracking websites using an RFC on the backend CRM system. Hope it helps anyway.
1. Create RFC enabled function module in backend.
2. Edit file backendobject-config.xml in folder project_root\b2b_z\WEB-INF\xcm\customer\modification:-

3. Edit file bom-config.xml in folder project_root\b2b_z\WEB-INF\xcm\customer\modification :-
[code] <BusinessObjectManagers
     xmlns:isa="com.sapmarkets.isa.core.config"
     xmlns:xi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XInclude"

          className="com.ao.isa.businessobject.Z_AOBusinessObjectManager"
          />
</BusinessObjectManagers>
[/code]
File com.ao.isa.businessobject.Z_AOBusinessObjectManager.java looks like this:-

     public Z_AOFunc getCustomBasket() {
          if (mCustomBasket == null) {
               mCustomBasket = new Z_AOFunc();
               assignBackendObjectManager(mCustomBasket);
          return mCustomBasket;
[/code]
And uses file com.ao.isa.businessobject.Z_AOFunc.java which looks like this:-
[code]
package com.ao.isa.businessobject;
// Internet Sales imports
import com.sapmarkets.isa.core.businessobject.BOBase;
import com.sapmarkets.isa.core.businessobject.BackendAware;

This method is needed when a business object has a corresponding
backend object.
     public void setBackendObjectManager(BackendObjectManager bem)
          this.bem = bem;
Returns a vector of url links for tracking
@return vector of urls
     public Vector getOrderDeliveryTrackingData(String orderNo)
          // the call is delegated to the CRM aware backend object
          return getCustomBasketBackend().getOrderDeliveryTrackingData(orderNo);
[/code]
4. Edit file config.xml in folder project_root\b2b_z\WEB-INF to add custom actions (the section below is just the custom stuff added at the end of the file the Z_orderTracking is the relevant one) :-
[code] 
     <action path="/b2b/Z_orderTracking" type="com.ao.isa.order.actions.Z_OrderTrackingAction">
          <forward name="success" path="/b2b/order/Z_orderTracking.jsp"/>
     </action>
     <action path="/catalog/Z_displaySVGPage" type="com.ao.isa.catalog.actions.Z_SVGPageAction">
          <forward name="success" path="/catalog/Z_SVG_fs.jsp"/>
     </action> [/code]
Which points at Java file com.ao.isa.order.actions.Z_OrderTrackingAction.java which looks like this :-
[code] package com.ao.isa.order.actions;
// internet sales imports
import com.sapmarkets.isa.core.BaseAction;
import com.sapmarkets.isa.core.UserSessionData;
// struts imports
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForward;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionMapping;
import org.apache.struts.action.ActionForm;
// servlet imports
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletRequest;
import javax.servlet.http.HttpServletResponse;
import javax.servlet.ServletException;
// Internet Sales imports
import com.ao.isa.businessobject.Z_AOBusinessObjectManager;
import java.util.Vector;
This action acts as a template for customer extensions
public class Z_OrderTrackingAction extends BaseAction
This method is called by the ISA Framework when the
action is executed
     public ActionForward doPerform(
          ActionMapping mapping,
          ActionForm form,
          HttpServletRequest request,
          HttpServletResponse response)
          throws ServletException
          // get user session data object
          UserSessionData userSessionData =
               UserSessionData.getUserSessionData(request.getSession());
          // gettting custom BOM
          Z_AOBusinessObjectManager myBOM =
               (Z_AOBusinessObjectManager) userSessionData.getBOM(
                    Z_AOBusinessObjectManager.CUSTOM_BOM);
          // get the order number being processed
          String orderDocNumber = request.getParameter("orderNo");
          // pass the order number back to the page
          request.setAttribute("orderNo", orderDocNumber);
          if (orderDocNumber != null)
               // Get a vector of delivery tracking objects from lower layers (Business Object layer =>
               // Business Logic Service Layer)
               Vector trackingTable =
                    myBOM.getCustomBasket().getOrderDeliveryTrackingData(
                         orderDocNumber);
               String error = "";
               if (trackingTable != null)
                    if (trackingTable.size() == 0)
                         error = "true";
                    else
                         error = "false";
               else
                    error = "true";
               request.setAttribute("errorMessage", error);
               request.setAttribute("trackingTable", trackingTable);
          return mapping.findForward("success");
[/code]
5. I added the call to the function module for page orderstatusdetail.jsp in folder project_root\b2b_z\b2b\order to display a custom page Z_orderTracking.jsp in the same folder. To do this I added a link into the HTML to call a JavaScript function that passed the current order number to the /b2b/Z_orderTracking.do actionhandler mapped in the config.xml file.
So, in summary! Create an RFC; define business managers for it in the XML files; create a new Strut action and supporting Java class; create all the Java class for the managers.
I hope this makes some sense!

Importance of Bounce management functionality in SAP CRM

Hi All,
I want to discuss few interesting issues which I have come a cross while doing a setting for bounce management functionality in SAP CRM 7.0
Before sharing my experience I want to discuss some term related to Bounce email than will discuss about types of bounce emails and cause of the bounce email.The setting of bounce functionality is describing in below link .
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm700_ehp01/helpdata/en/46/3f509215835fa7e10000000a1553f7/content.htm
In general when a website visitor sigh up they receive email from the company site, the information the site collected saved in the database but It commonly happen some of your email will be undeliever. In marketing term we say it as 'Bounce'. this is the same way happen as when a person give a bank cheque to bank and don't have sufficient money to his/her account the bank people say the cheque got bounce ..
As we are aware emails are bounce for variety of reason such as.
     - In case the recipient email address is invalid.
     - recipient email address is inactive or closed
     - recipient mailbox is full or mail server have some technical issue etc
In general all these bounces emails categorize in two category.
Hard bounce- When email address is not active. example wrong email address, email address de-activated, deleted,or closed
Soft bounce- recipient mailbox is full, mail server have some technical issue, Out_of_office is setup .
Now finally we come to know about the cause of bounce email and types. Now the question arises why this is so important when we have bounce management functionality active in sap crm marketing ? as described in above url.
suppose that there is a campaigning happening for an product where 3000 person visited it. Now incase 2000 visitors shown interest so have qualified as prospect bases on the information they have provided such as name, address, salary or employment detail.
After successfully execution of campaign now senior executives create a mailing list for all the prospects in the target group of campaign and sends email to all the users.Now if I say to how many customers really company have reached reached after campaign execution answer will be we can not have the correct fact and figure as there could be some bounce happened.
Now incase bounce management setting is configure in your CRM system than system will receive inbound e-mails for each bounce.Suppose we have received one thousand bounce emails than we would say actual customer contacted is 1000. this is the correct fact and figure and very much useful for marketing people.
After than executive could remove email address which were hard bounced and for soft bounce they can use some other channel to contact like telephone calls etc to reach them.
The correct facts and figures are very much important for marketing strategy and planning and also to know success level of each campaign. Assume a scnario where in day a company launches more than 5 campaign. I feel the importace is transparent now.
I hope you would find some interest in above blog.
Thanks

Product costing Template - adding new function in Environments CTU6

Hi Guru!!
I need to create a new function in CTU6 (Define Environments and Function Trees) in order to have information stored in MBEW table and use them in CPT2 (Template).
The goal is to calculate a value for each material/plant and add that value during the cost estimate (CK11N / CK40N).
Could someone help me? How can I add a field of MBEW in CTU6?
Thank you very much in advance!!

Creating New Functions and Risks in RAR 5.3

All,
I need to create a set of new functions and risks in RAR 5.3. What is the best way to do this?
I tried to export existing functions and modify what I thought were the relevant tables. Next I tried to import this into Rule Architect > Utilities > Import Rules. I got the confirmation the import uploaded successfully and a rule generation job started. The job took a while and when it comepleted I looked for the functions and they weren't there. What do you all advise?
Thanks,
Grace Rae

yes Frank is right. if few functions then better do with Rule Architect
else you must understand interdependency of various table
did you defined which Business Process thsoe function will belong to.......
check table
VIRSA_CC_BUSPRC
VIRSA_CC_BUSPRCT
VIRSA_CC_FUNC
VIRSA_CC_FUNCT
virsa_cc_func*
functions and the object they pulled and actions , all these interrelations should be taken care of.....
better refer to default rule sets send by SAP, that's the way you have to create.....
regards,
Surpreet

ALERT FUNCTIONALITY IN SAP

We need an ALERT functionality is SAP, just like it happens when a new mail comes in on Outlook.This ALERT MESSAGE must inform us whenever a new Z transaction is created on Table TSTC.
Any Ideas????

You could create a custom table to basically replicate a list of all the Z transactions. You should maintain this manually.
Then have a program that runs every so often (once an hour if you're really paranoid, once a day would probably be sufficient) that compares the two tables. The program could send you an e-mail or a page or something if it finds a discrepancy.

Permit Functionality in SAP PM

Hello Experts
We are considering using permit functionality in SAP PM
I am new to this area. I would like to know how this fucntionality can be used in SAP and what are the detaile steps.
Thanks

Hi Gaurav,
Still people are using manual system (paper work), eventhough SAP permits is in place.
there are some constraints like,
1. work place monitoring (safety or authorised people usually visit the place and sign on the papers, on the spot if he found every thing fine. but in SAP he has to release the permits after visiting the place. til that time order cannot be released.)
2. Permit paper contains of safety instructions along with Do's & Dont's. ( In SAP, we have only one authorization mark to release the permit. may not be sufficient to to capture the data for future references).
2 ways to maintain permits in SAP:
1. Master data ot Technical Objects Level.
Some of the equipments like vessels or reactors, we need to consider them for standard permits like for eg: Confined space permit. We need to get approval for these permits, whenever maintenance happens.
we can mark these permits in Technical objects level itself.
While creating the equipment IE01 >>> GOTO >>> Permits. We can select the suitable permits to that technical object.
2. Order level
while creating the order, based on the work and techical objects, we can select the permits.
IW31 >>> GOTO >>> Permits.
The permit release authorization been given to the authorized people (safety / production head, etc.,) based on the permit type.
(Authorization symbol in the down side of permits screen (or) in Oder screen.
System wouldn't accept to release the order, If that order contains any permits.
Throws the message " Order release refused as permits still missing".
**We can work with permits in Order level only, not possible in Notification level.** where we don't have release system for Notification.
Thanks

Help me to find a suitable new area in SAP to work on?

Hi All,
I am working in ABAP for the last 2 half years. Now i like to switch over from ABAP because i am not interested in coding. I can't move to functional area also because I don't have any domain experience like SD,MM.... . Please help me to find a suitable new area in SAP to work on?
Your suggestion will be appreciated.
Regards,
Durai.

In my view FICO, SD, MM all the modules do need the functional exposure. Why don't u consider taking up the XI or EP for that matter. It is more exciting and there is world of opportunities available in these new technologies.
Regards.

Web Service Adjustment - New Functions in Function Group

If you have a deployed function group-based webservice and then add new remote functions to the function group, what is the process for adjusting the web service so that the new functions are available?
I know that you can syntax check the web service if a function interface has changed or a data dictionary definition for a parameter has changed, but I don't see an option for adding the new calls, other than manually editing the WSDL file. 'Check' and 'Activate' on the service do not work from SE80. Deleting the endpoint binding and re-creating it in SOAMANAGER does not work because the service definition hasn't changed. The only option I found is to delete the service and go back through the wizard. That just doesn't seem right.
Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi Brad
The easiest way of doing this is by going to the service definition in SE80 in the change mode and right clicking on the top level object (service definition name) in the "Internal View" tab and choosing "Modify Operations". This will give you a list of all available funciton modules in the system. Either scroll to the relevant function module that you want to add or to save some pain click the "Insert" button which will open up a field for input where you could do a pattern search for the function module(s) (SAP FM --> WS Operation) that you want to add.
This way you can add not only the Function Modules of the same function group but of other function groups as well.
Hope this helps.
Regards
Salil
