Update problem - VBDATA table

Dear All,
We have update problems in our Quality systems, and also in every R/3 system that we create from a Production system copy.
Sometime the UPD and UP2 work processes hung without apparent reason.
In the SM50 I can see one or more of my update processes running for a lot of time (many hours) on the table VBDATA without perform any action.
In the tcode SM12 I donu2019t see any kind of lock, and I donu2019t understand why only sometime this problem happens.
Of course, from the SM13 I can see that during this problem the system is not able to perform any kind of update.
As I told in the beginning of the message, I have the same problem in other two R/3 systems, both created with a system copy from the production system.
The Production and the Developer systems seem not affected by this problem.
Have you got any idea about the reason of the problem?
Even if the Production systems is not directly affected, all the IT department is not able to work on the Quality system (or any other Test system), and the only workaround is to kill the UPD (or UP2) WPs affected.
Thanks in advance,
Federico Biavati
My R/3 System is a 4.7 on SLES9 and Oracle 10.2.0.2

Hello Siva,
This is what I did:
> Check how many entries do you have in VBDATA currently.
More than 1.000 in every SAP systems that Iu2019m creating from Production
> You might want to run the reorganize updates program to clear the old updates
> that are pending/in error
Good point!!
After the reorganization (ST14 u2013 Reorganize update requests) the table VBDATA is empty.
Iu2019ll check and Iu2019ll let you know if the problem is definitively solved.
Thanks for you help,
Federico

DEFTAX_ITEM table updation problem

Dear All,
We are using SAP Ecc 6.0
We have configured service tax through deferred tax codes.
Created Profit center wise Service TAx code and working Fine. Also we are executing S_AC0_52000644 - Deferred Tax Transfer Procedure and working fine.
Now we have created one more Service TAx code (X9) and prepared Purchase Requisition, Purchase Order, and Vendor Invoice .
Also made Advance Payment (DPR) using Purchase Order. All Tax calculation is correct every where.
But when i executed S_AC0_52000644 - Deferred Tax Transfer , it shoes Message 'List contains no Data"
Then checked table DEFTAX_ITEM. So in this table entry was not available for all those document which contains New Service Tax code X9.
All other entries are OK. Even we have made full payment also against Vendor Invoice .
What and where can be a probelm . why it's not updating entries in table DEFTAX_ITEM.
Due to non existance of entries , could not executed procedure S_AC0_52000644 - Deferred Tax Transfer for all documents which contains Service TAx code X9.
For other service tax code , there is o problem. Probelm is only with new tax Code X9.
WHere shall i Check for this probelm.

Yes, There was a probelm of Target TAx code
Now solved.

Problems updating a linked table

Hi,
I am running a win 7 with Excel 2013, 64 bit, Swedish version. I try to update a linked table in the data modell and get an error message saying:

The file is saved as .xlsx so there shouldn't be a compatibility problem. I have also tried removing the added rows to make sure the added data didn't contain any bad data and running the file on a different computer but the problem keeps showing up.
Anyone having any ideas on how to solve this?

Problem: Z table data updates using SM30

Hi,
I have a requirement, while updating records in a Z table
using SM30 Transaction.
The Structure of the table is below:
APMOD    Primary Key   Char(3)
KONST    Primary Key   Char(20)
ENDDA    Primary Key   DATS
BEGDA    Non Key       DATS
and some other non key fields....
Problem: This table should act something like Infotype in HR. I mean Delimition of Records while creating or changeing the existing record.
Say there is a record
APMOD = OGMT
KONST = Organization Management
BEGDA = 01/01/2004
ENDDA = 12/31/9999
Whenever i am Inserting a new record with key
APMOD = OGMT and KONST = 'Organization Management'
and BEGDA = '01/01/2006'.
First it should update the old record with
BEGDA = 01/01/2004 and ENDDA = 12/31/2005
Then the new record needs to be inserted with
BEGDA = 01/01/2006 and ENDDA = 12/31/9999.
How can I achieve this using SM30? Can we write our own code somewhere? If yes Where and How? Or is there any settings available for this requirement?
I can write a Z program to update this Table, but i should achieve this using SM30 only.
Let me know if you need any additional info.
Regards,
Sudhakar.

Hi Sudhakar,
1. I tried the same at my end. It works fantastic !
   In SM30 it shows
   'Delimit' Button
   'Expand <--> Collapse' Button.
    and accordingly delmits the records.
2. in SE11,
   Use the menu
   Utilities ---> Table Maintenance Generator
   and finally build a table maintenance
   to use in SM30.
3. When u use in SM30,
   u will achieve what u want.
4. Just make sure your field
   ENDDA has the data element ENDDA
   in table definition.
It should also be key.
5. After this ENDDA column,
   there should be no other key column
( not even BEGDA)
I Hope it helps.
Regards,
Amit M.

Hi experts,
I've used the FM 'HR_INFOTYPE_OPERATION' to update the database table. In that i used the MOD operation to update the Infotype PA0315. But it return an error message like "Infotype does not exist". What could be the reason for this error?.

Hi,
MARD table contain storage location data so what you can do is you can extend the material to some storage location using the T-CODE :MMSC and you will get data in this table or do MM02 and maintain the storage location related data and you will get whatever you want .

VPD problem: select for update on join tables with policy on ref table

In our application we use VPD. Now we ran into an issue. I will try to explain with EMP and DEPT table.
EMP table has no VPD attached.
DEPT table has VPD policy that forbids all updates, but allows select. (Policy returns '1=2' for statement type update.
This query returns no rows:
select * from emp join dept using (department_id) for update. This makes sense, because I'm going to update both the tables.
However:
select * from emp join dept using (department_id) for update of employee_id also returns no rows. THIS IS WRONG. I'm not going to update dept table.
Any experience with this. Is this a known limitation ?

I can see all the rows, because there is no select policy.
However the point is, that VPD should allow me to update the emp table, because there is no update policy.
With the 'for update of employee_id' clause, VPD should recognize that I'm not going to update the dept table, but only the emp table. But VPD does not recognize this, but applies the update policy of dept to the statement, making the statement to update no rows.
(Reason behind my question is ADF Business Components, where you have ViewObjects with Referenced Entities. ADF BC generates this type of statement and now we run into this VDP limitation)

Hi Ravi
you are right, vendor no is my key field . problem is when i send data again then it should Update the data but it's not updating the data again
i did on exp with this : i deleted all the record from the table and then triggered idoc for vendor 2005 , 2006,2010 after this data is updated in the table i deleted the rows for vendor no 2006 and 2010 and kept the row for vendor 2005
then i again trigered the idoc for vendor no 2005,2006 and 2010 now this should update and it should insert rows for vendor no 2006 and 2010 but i am surprised its not updating the data
Thanks

Can't update a sql-table with a space

Hello,
In a transaktion I'm getting some Values from a SAP-ERP System via JCO.
I update a sql-table with this values with a sql-query command.
But sometimes the values I get from SAP-ERP are empty (space) and I'm not able to update the sql-table because of a null-value exception. (The column doesn't allow null-values). It seems that MII thinks null and space are the same.
I tried to something like this when passing the value to the sql-query parameter but it didn't work:
stringif( Repeater_Result.Output{/item/SCHGT} == "X", "X", " ")
stringif( Repeater_Result.Output{/item/SCHGT} == "X", "X", " ")
this works but I don't want to have a "_"
stringif( Repeater_Result.Output{/item/SCHGT} == "X", "X", "_")
Any suggestions?
thank you.
Matthias

The problem is Oracle doesn't know the space function. But it knows a similar function: NVL --> replaces a null value with something else. So this statement works fine for me:
update marc set
LGort = '[Param.3]',
dispo = '[Param.4]',
schgt = NVL('[Param.5]', ' '),
dismm = '[Param.6]',
sobsl = NVL('[Param.7]',' '),
fevor = '[Param.8]'
where matnr = '[Param.1]' and werks = '[Param.2]'
If Param.5 or Param.7 is null Oracle replaces it with a space in every other case it is the parameter itself.
Christian, thank you for your hint with the space function. So I remembered the NVL-function.

Matthias

Hello Jenjira,
Since this was a question asked few years back, I think you can share your experience with activation of a Scenario subsequent to Go-Live of new GL functionality (We are contemplating activation of one more scenario for Functional Area updation in new GL. 4 update scenarios were activated at time of New GL Implementation 4 years ago).
Please share following:
1. Impact of this subsequent activation on Open documents in the live system.
2. How you addressed the issues arising on Point 1.
3. Any support that you got from SAP Support Team on issues thereof.
Any inputs will be of great help.

How do I update the result table ?

I am having problem to design and update the competition results in WPC_RESULTS table.
I have 3 tables
1. WPC_COMPETITION - It has details of the competition to be conducted.
2. WPC_MEMBERS - Member details.
3. WPC_RESULTS - Competition results which will have Member_ID, Competition_ID and Status.
In Region 1. I have a drop down list from which I can select the Competition.
Problem is with region 2.
==================
In Region 2. I plan to have All the Member's Name from WPC_MEMBERS, a Status column (W=Win or L=Lost or X=NotPlayed) from WPC_RESULT which can be updated. But the table WPC_RESULTS dosenot have a primary key but has 2 foreign key one from WPC_COMPETITION and one from WPC_MEMBERS.
I am just not able to plan & create this region 2.
Can someone login to my wokspace and give me a helping hand.
Please mail me at [email protected] and I would give you the password for my workspace.
Regards,
Nikhil Karnik

My problem is since the WPC_RESULT table has two master tables. I cannot use a Master Detail form.
What I am trying is,
On a form which displays all the member in WPC_MEMBERS, Drop down list of competition name from WPC_COMPETITION table and a there should be checkbox for status column of WPC_RESULT. So my challenge is to update the WPC_RESULT table with the respective member id and competition id and status in WPC_RESULT table.
As you said I can use a PL/SQL, but I could not understand how do create my PLSQL block to identify each member on the form and update the competition status associated with that member.
in short the table definition is like
CREATE TABLE "WPC_COMPETITION"
(     "COMPETITION_NAME" VARCHAR2(100),
     "COMPETITION_CODE" NUMBER,
     "DATE_CONDUCTED" DATE,
     CONSTRAINT "WPC_PK1" PRIMARY KEY ("COMPETITION_CODE") ENABLE
CREATE TABLE "WPC_COMPETITION"
(     "COMPETITION_NAME" VARCHAR2(100),
     "COMPETITION_CODE" NUMBER,
     "DATE_CONDUCTED" DATE,
     CONSTRAINT "WPC_PK1" PRIMARY KEY ("COMPETITION_CODE") ENABLE
CREATE TABLE "WPC_RESULTS"
(     "COMPETITION_CODE" NUMBER,
     "STATUS" VARCHAR2(1),
     "MEMBER_ID" NUMBER
ALTER TABLE "WPC_RESULTS" ADD CONSTRAINT "WPKD_FK1" FOREIGN KEY ("COMPETITION_CODE")
     REFERENCES "WPC_COMPETITION" ("COMPETITION_CODE") ENABLE
ALTER TABLE "WPC_RESULTS" ADD CONSTRAINT "WPKD_FK2" FOREIGN KEY ("MEMBER_ID")
     REFERENCES "WPC_MEMBERS" ("MEMBER_ID") ENABLE

Hello All,
We have one date update problem for one Scheduling agreement, the field is LFDKD (Date of Last.Delivery) in the table EKEK -Header Data for Scheduling Agreement Release and this date hasnt been updated only for one SA since 2008 , it remains as it is like 18.02.2008, but the date of last field (LWEDT) is updated correctly till date. So due to this problem , the SA release is sent to the vendor through EDI and the date of last delivery is sent wrongly in 2008 date even though after that many goods receipt has been done for this SA. Any idea why it didnt get update till date ?

Update openquery remote table with join

Hi All,
I have a problem with OPENQUERY update on remote table. I've googled for days, and can't solve the problem.
Here is the problem:
Local server MS SQL 2005.
Remote server: MySQL.
The linked server is communicating through MySQL ODBC 5.1
I created the following code for update (tried many other version too, this is the last one):
update openquery(Remoteserver,'select products_id, products_price, products_last_modified, products_stock from products1')
set
products_price=A.products_price,
products_stock=A.products_stock,
products_last_modified=getdate()
FROM
(select * from vi_products_update) AS A INNER JOIN
openquery(octopus, 'select products_id from products1')AS B
ON A.products_id=B.products_id
When I run the query the columns are updated with the same value, for each record. It looks the value is the first which match the criteria. Each (remote and local) table has as primary key products_id. In this example I used as result set for local a view, but I have the same result if I use a table.
the products_last_modified column is updated in order, and if I update for e.g. the products_price with a constant that is ok too. The problem should be somewhere with join, but I can' get it where.
THX for any help
