Standard function to find alphabet in string?

Is there a standard function to find alphabet in string?
For example, a variable define as char (10),
I need a function to find out if this variable contains alphabet.
Any standard function there?

hiii
use following code
data: wa_str(100) type c.
data: wa_str1 type string.
data: wa_str2 type string.
data: wa_str3 type string.
data: len type i.
data: ofset type i.
wa_str = 'ABCD435hjK'.
len = strlen( wa_str ).
TRANSLATE wa_str TO UPPER CASE.
do.
if ofset = len.
    exit.
endif.
if wa_str+ofset(1) co sy-abcde .
      concatenate wa_str2 wa_str+ofset(1) into wa_str2.
else.
    concatenate wa_str3 wa_str+ofset(1) into wa_str3.
endif.
ofset = ofset + 1.
enddo.
write:/ wa_str.
write:/ 'alphabatic char', 20 wa_str2.
here TRANSLATE wa_str TO UPPER CASE.
statement have added .i hope this will solve your problem.

Oracle Spatial function to find nearest line string based on lat/long

Hi,
Here is my scenario. I have a table that contains geometries of type line strings (the roadway network). The line geomteries are of type Ohio state plane south (SRID 41104).
I have a requirement - given a lat/long, find the line string that snaps to that lat/long or the nearest set of line strings within a distance of 0.02 miles.
This is a typical example of trying to identify a crash location on our roadway network. The crashes being reported to us in lat/long thru the GPS system.
How can i acheive this through any spatial functions?
Thanks for the help in advance.
thanx,
L.

Hi L,
That is not the way I would do it. I would convert my road segments to LRS data, then you can do all queries on the same data.
Or, if you do not want to modify your original data, create a copy of your road segments with the same ID's and convert the copy into LRS data. If you keep the ID's identical, you can easily use geometry from one and LRS data from the other - as long as you are sure the ID is the same.
Which will make the workflow a bit easier:
1. Use SDO_NN to get the closest segments
2. Use SDO_LRS.PROJECT_PT to get the projected point
3. Use SDO_LRS.GET_MEASURE to get the measure
And most of these you can incorporate into one single query. Now I am writing this of the top of my head (It's been a while since I played with LRS). so this has not been tested, but something like this should work (but could probably be greatly improved - it's getting late for me :-) ):
SELECT
SDO_LRS.FIND_MEASURE --//find_measure needs an LRS segment and a point
    SELECT            --//here we select the LRS segment
      r.geometry
    FROM
      roadsegments r
    WHERE SDO_NN(r.geometry,    --//based on the given GPS point
                 sdo_geometry(2001, 41104, sdo_point_type(lat,lon,NULL), NULL, NULL),
                 'sdo_num_res=2 distance=0.02 unit=mile') = 'TRUE'
SDO_LRS.PROJECT_PT --//We project the point on the LRS segment
      SELECT         --//here we select the LRS segment (again, which could probably be improved!!)
        r.geometry
      FROM
        roadsegments r
      WHERE SDO_NN(r.geometry,
                   sdo_geometry(2001, 41104, sdo_point_type(lat,lon,NULL), NULL, NULL),
                   'sdo_num_res=2 distance=0.02 unit=mile') = 'TRUE'
    sdo_geometry(2001, 41104, sdo_point_type(lat,lon,NULL), NULL, NULL) --//The GPS point again
AS milemarker from dual;So it is not as complicated as you think, it can easily be done with just one query (SQL can do a lot more than you think ;-) ).
Good luck,

How to find query_only and standard functions (AOL)

Hi,
There are many functions which are attached to menus and which inturn are attached to responsibility.
Also, we can have a function view only by creating the same function by entering QUERY_ONLY="YES" in parameter.
For ex:- I have a function called "Customers Standard" by which you can create customers. I can create another
function using the same form and make it query only by entering QUERY_ONLY="YES" in the parameters column.
My question is, I want to know for which responsibilities i have this query_only function attached and for
which reponsibilities i have this normal standard function is attached to. If it is Query_only, then i want
to populate a comment saying " Query Only Customer" and if not then populate with " Standard Customer Function".
I wrote a query which displays all the menus, sub-menus and user-function-names for all responsibilities. But
i need to populate another column with this "Query-only" or "Standard Customer" by checking the parameter values.
Like this, i need to check for all like "customer" , "invoices", "order entry", "vendors" etc etc.
If it is hard to understand my problem, to make it simple, " A query to Display all the menus, sub-menus, sub-sub-menus,
user-function-names for all menus, sub-menus, sub-sub-menus for all reponsibilities. After writing this query,
I want to populate one more column in which i want to display whether it is query_only or not_query_only."
Help Appreciated
Thanks

Hi Adwinn,
Do you have any query for this.
For ex:- for AR reponsibility, the screen looks like this:-
-Transactions
     Batches
     Batches Summary
     Transactions Summary
     Credit Transactions
-Receipts
     Batches
     Batches Summary
     Receipts
     Receipts Summary
     Remittances
     Remittances Summary
-Lockbox
          Transmission History
          Maintain Transmission Data
-Collections
     Scheduler
     Customer Calls

     Account Overview
     Aging
     Correspondence
-Customers
     Standard
     Quick
     Summary
     Profile Class
     Merge
and so on.....
In this, there are may be query_only functions created and attached to these menus. I need a report which shows me all the menus, sub-menus, sub-sub-menus and tell whether that is standard or query_only with that prompt description.
for ex:- output:-
AR reponsbility | AR_NAVIGATE_GUI | Customers | Standard | Customers-Standard-Query Only
help appreciated

What are the standard functions in XI ?

What are the standard functions in XI ?

Hi,
The target field mapping is possible by using below typs of functions
1. Standard functions
2. Runtime procedure
3. User Defined functions
Standard functions are the APIs provided in Graphical mapping to process the values of the fields used for target field mapping.
Technically all these values are trated as string thus all standard functions expect strings as input argument and string as an export aurgument
Please find here with you more details about it at below link

Currency Translation at the Web Template level (standard functionality)

Hi Experts ,
We are currently working in BI 7.0 env. with source system ECC 5.0.
We are working for a task where we need to make the BEx queries enabled for currency translation .
The requirement is :-
The user should be enable to give/opt/choose for the follwoing options:-
Currency type (target currency in which the translation is aimed)
Exchange Rate ( Standard(M) or other(P) or something else) and
Key date: The translation will be performed taking the exchange rate on that particular date.
We do have 2 option to perform the task...
1:- Either we do it thru currency translation type definition(RSCUR) and then attaching this currency translation for every amount key figure values at each query level. OR
2:- If we can go and find something at the Web Template level and add/modify the template in such a way so that it gives us the functionality to translate a source currency into a desired one with desired exchange rate type (currently either M or P) and for a specific date.
At this point of time when we do have numerous sub-areas holding hundreds of queries, we want something which should be available as the modification/addition to standard functionality at the web template level and not at the query level as changing each and every one of them and testing would be a cumbersome process and would be costly and risky at the same time. So we are just wondering if we can find something with option no. 2 and add/modify something in the standard functionality.
Please ask for any more information required.
Thanks very much.
regds.

Hi Amit,
You would still need to define the Currency Translation using RSCUR where you would specify
-the exchange rate type (either fixed or variable)
-the target currency (either fixed or variable)
-the reference date
You don't need to modify any of your queries. You can instead use 'Translate Currency'/[SET_CURRENCY_TRANSLATION] command in WAD & specify the Currency Translation as defined in RSCUR. If you want the target currency & exchange rate type to be driven by user input, you can define these as variables in RSCUR & invoke the variable screen using 'OPEN_VARIABLE_DIALOG' in WAD for user input just before calling 'SET_CURRENCY_TRANSLATION' command.

Projects, is the Standard Functionality the one with COGS created?

Korean Air manufactures AIRCRAFT components and delivers them to customers such as Boeing. It wants to implement ERP (R12) applying Oracle Projects Solution.
Issue
1. When Shipping Type Deliverable is created in Project Module and it is interface to Shipping Execution for Ship Confirm, COGS(Cost of Goods Sold ) for Shipping Item is created and it overlaps with cost of sales per Project/Task.
Question
*1. **When Shipping was done using deliverable of Shipping Type in Project Module, is the Standard Functionality the one with COGS created?*
A. If the number 1 case is Standard Functionality, is there any option to prevent COGS creation?
B. If the answer is no, by what kind of setup is it possible?
C. Does Shipping of Project Module based on “non-asset based warehouse”?
*2. What is the Integration mapping of Project Management, Shipping Execution, Inventory, AR, COGS etc?*
The following are basic process.
1. Quotation-> Contract -> Plan -> Production -> Delivery -> Revenue
A. Using Deliverable in Projects
2. Project: Agreement
3. Task: Unit
4. Purchasing Plan, Production Plan etc. executed based on Project/Task
5. Cost calculation is calculated in Project/Task unit
6. When Task (Tail Number) is completed, deliver to Boeing according to contract
B. Interface through Shipping Execution
C. Ship Confirm
7. Based on cost revenue is recognized according to progression rate.
A. Cost Collect
B. Generate Draft Revenue
8. Based on delivery or contract, account receivable is created and send to customer.
A. Create Event per Task
B. Generate Draft Revenue
C. Interface Draft Revenue to Receivables.

Hello Daniel,
The PCI serial cards are not supported with LabVIEW RT for ETS targets and are not expected to work. We are looking into finding a way to add support for PCI serial devices in RT, but currently that support does not exist.
One possible workaround would be to use a NI ENET-485-X device. The visa resource name will not be COMx in this case. Instead, you will need to enter the long name of ASRL::::::INSTR as documented in the NI-VISA help.
I hope this helps. If you need to speak with your sales representative to resolve this issue, please follow this link. Have a great day.

Function to find quantity of a material in Open sales Order in 4.5

hi ,
is there any function to find the total quantity of a material in open sales order for an input date in 4.5
Regards

I think you may find function RV_BILLING_PRINT_VIEW helpful. This is the function used by the standard SAP report RVADIN01 to assemble all the information needed to print a Sales Order. The structure and table output by this function contain all the information in the header and line items of the Sales Order.
To watch this function in action, set a break point on this function (line 1075 of RVADIN01 in my system) and print a Sales Order (SO).
I use VF31 to print an arbitrary SO during testing.
Your company may have altered the standard print configuration for sales orders in SAP. If so, you will need to note the output type of your test Sales Order in VF31 and use Transaction V/83 to determine which program is being used to print that type of SO.

Write two functions to find the the number of elements in a linked list?

I am trying to Write two functions to find the the number of elements in a linked list. One method using recursion and One method using a loop...
//The linked List class is Represented here.
public class lp {
public int first;
public lp rest;
public lp(int first1, lp rest1)
first = first1;
rest = rest1;
The program i wrote so far is
import java.util.*;
import linklist.lp;
public class listCount{
//loop function
public static void show_list(lp list)
int counter = 0;
while(list != null)
list = list.rest;
counter++;
System.out.println ("length computed with a loop:" + counter);
//recursive function
public static int recursive_count(lp list)
if (list.first == null)
return 0;
else
return recursive_count(list.rest) + 1;
//main method
public static void main (String args[])
lp list1 = new lp(1, new lp(2, new lp(3, null)));
show_list(list1);
System.out.println("length computed with a recursion:" +
recursive_count(list1));
at the if (list.first == null) line i get the error " incomparable types:

help...What should I do?

byte, char, short, int, long, float, double, and boolean are primitives, not objects. They have no members, you cannot call methods on them, and they cannot be set to or compared with null.

Use REGEXP_INSTR to find a text string with space(s) in it

I am trying to use REGEXP_INSTR to find a text string with space(s) in it.
(This is in a Function.)
Let's say ParmIn_Look_For has a value of 'black dog'. I want to see if
ParmIn_Search_This_String has 'black dog' anywhere in it. But it gives an error
Syntax error on command line.
If ParmIn_Look_For is just 'black' or 'dog' it works fine.
Is there some way to put single quotes/double quotes around ParmIn_Look_For so this will
look for 'black dog' ??
Also: If I want to use the option of ignoring white space, is the last parm
'ix' 'i,x' or what ?
SELECT
REGEXP_INSTR(ParmIn_Search_This_String,
'('||ParmIn_Look_For||')+', 1, 1, 0, 'i')
INTO Position_Found_In_String
FROM DUAL;

Maybe something like this ?

Handling date to ADD or Substract fixed # of days using standard function

Hi ,
Using the standard functions in XI, is it possible to add or subtract a fixed number of days from the date i get from the input file.
Like, from file I get the date as 25/06/2009.My output should be 05/07/2009 after adding 10 days .
can some one guide how to handle this.
Thanks,
Ven..

Hi Ven,
Here is a UDF code,which takes date(format:yyyyMMdd) as input and does addition or subtraction operations based on <field 1> value,return the result date(format:yyyyMMdd) as string value.
public String GenerateDate(String date_input, String field1,Container container){
//Here "date_input" and "field1" are inputs for this UDF
int date = Integer.parseInt(date_input);
Calendar cal;
int day = date % 100;
int month = (date/100) % 100 - 1;
int year = date / 10000;
cal = Calendar.getInstance();
cal.set(year, month, day);
/implement addition or subtraction logic here as your needs/
if (field1 == "A")
cal.add(Calendar.DATE, 10);
else if(field == "B")
cal.add(Calendar.DATE, -5);
day = cal.get(Calendar.DATE);
month = cal.get(Calendar.MONTH)+ 1;
year = cal.get(Calendar.YEAR);
date = year * 10000 + month * 100 + day;
return (""+date);
You can use Standard Funtion DateTrans to convert date from your format to the format used in the UDF and vice versa.

Problem using SUM standard function during Field Mapping

Hi Experts ,
I am trying to sum all LIFMG 's in in the lineitems of a particular
header and map this result to Lifmg of the header.(Idoc with multiple headers and line item).I am using SUM standard function.
Rough Source structure.
Header1
      vbeln
....Lineitem1
      vbeln
      posnr
......LIFMG
....Lineitem2
        vbeln
        posnr
......LIFMG
Header2
     vbeln
....Lineitem1
        vbeln
       posnr
......LIFMG
....Lineitem2
        vbeln
       posnr
......LIFMG
I am able to find the SUM ...but in the target structure's Header field I am getting
repeated value of the corresponding sum in each header ...i.e.
Header1
LFIMG-- 100
LFIMG    100
Header2
LFIMG-- 102
LFIMG    102
How to get a single value for each .

placing it before was causing ...those values to be replicated.

Is it necessary to use the standard function modules always?

Hi All,
Suppose i can retrieve the BUSINEES PARTNER ID from the table BUT000 with the help of 'BP_GUID' field through a select query statement.
Now is it necessary to use a standard function module to retrieve the same data. what about the performance? which is the better solution. to implement our own code or to use the function module available.
Please someone clarify me about this issue.
Regards,
Sharry.

If you'd ask the question in general it's obvious that there is no good answer as it always would depend on the circumstance. However, as you've posted your question in the performance tuning forum, let's look at your question in this context first. I think it's fairly safe to say, that in almost 100% of the cases a standard function module will not be as fast as any well implemented and custom tailored code. If in doubt, just try reading the code of the function module you want to read; most likely you will find lots of unnecessary fluff in there, often they read data that you don't even need.
And as far as buffering is concerned, that can also be an issue. E.g. let's say you do a massive read of distinct business partners and you only need the data once for each partner. Obviously buffering is silly in this case and it might even slow down your program, because the implemented buffering is not necessarily well implemented. I've come across a few cases, where the buffer tables where standard tables with no efficient read access (so no sorted table or hash table) and once tons of data were buffered, it actually took a moment to look up if the record already was buffered (just to find it wasn't there yet).
Now most of the times this slowdown is not an issue as the lookup is still fast compared to the (usually) prevalent database accesses with their slower IO timing. But another factor to consider is memory consumption and why buffer data in memory (and waste it), if you can't use the buffer anyway? So when I do use standard function modules, I usually try to see what they retain in global memory, to better understand if I need to call some initialization/clearing/refresh function...
Note also that often you need to process lots of data, but don't find a standard function module for "mass access", so you need to read your object one by one. Obviously that's another good candidate for implementing your own queries, where you can process the data in packages.
So what might be the reason to use a standard function module? Well, often it's required because the logic is so complex that it would take you too much time to implement it (not to mention that we often simply don't know all the logic that's coded in there). Another advantage is that you might get independent of the data model. E.g. for IDoc interfaces SAP switched in some release the tables where the data is stored. So if you had coded your own queries to get IDoc data, they wouldn't have worked after this particular release upgrade. The standard function on the other hand, checks both the old and new tables, so by using it you would have been fine.
The one major caveat I'd give though is to always check whether the function module is released or at least documented to some degree. I.e. if it's not released, SAP won't support it and does not guarantee that the interface or logic stays the same. In my experience lots of functions I do want to use are not released (or documented), but I will still use them because they seem to be the best alternative in certain scenarios.
Cheers, harald

Standard function modules to get birthday list etc.

Dear all,
I need to read the following information, it is nice to have standard function modules, do you know any?
1. monthly birthday list
2. anniversaries of people in a month
3. Entries/Exits of people in a month
4. reminder for other HR events like Performance Review and Expiry of Probation
Thanks a lot.

goto t-code SE37 and do a wildcard search:
type *birth* and hit the F4 key on keyboard
the list of function modules to extract brithdates will list out.
you will need to spend time to review if each of them fits your requirement
likewise for other function, feel free to do the wildcard search using the keyword in Se37
