Variable Parameters for customization

Hi All,
As a SCM functional consultant-
1. What are the variable parameters(like DFF) for customization/apps extn in oracle apps for me?
2. I will have to prepare/use MD50 docs for apps extension. How can I update my skill on that?
3. I will have to prepare TE-20(functional part) so how can I make myself strong in that? Whether MD-50 & TE-20 docs of other projects will help or is there any other way also?
Thanks & regards

How to log input parameters for Function Modules?

Hi,
I need to create a Logging system to trace input parameters for function modules.
The log functionality could be done by developing a class method or a function module (For example 'write_log'), and calling it within each function module that I want to log. The 'write_log' code should be independent from the interface of the Function Module that I want to log.
For example, I'd like to write a function/class method that can log both these functions modules:
Function DummyA
   Input parameters: A1 type char10, A2 type char10.
Function DummyB
   Input parameters: B1 type char20, B2 type char20, B3 type char20, B4 type Z_MYSTRUCTURE
Now the questions...
- Is there a "standard SAP" function that provide this functionality?
- If not, is there a system variable in which I can access runtime all parameters name, type and value for a particular function module?
- If not, how can I loop at Input parameters in a way that is independent from the function module interface?
Thank you in advance for helping!

New FAQ Entry on JVM Parameters for Large Cache Sizes

I've posted a new [FAQ entry|http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/berkeley-db/faq/je_faq.html#60] on JVM parameters for large cache sizes. The text of it is as follows:
What JVM parameters should I consider when tuning an application with a large cache size?
If your application has a large cache size, tuning the Java GC may be necessary. You will almost certainly be using a 64b JVM (i.e. -d64), the -server option, and setting your heap and stack sizes with -Xmx and -Xms. Be sure that you don't set the cache size too close to the heap size so that your application has plenty of room for its data and to avoided excessive full GC's. We have found that the Concurrent Mark Sweep GC is generally the best in this environment since it yields more predictable GC results. This can be enabled with -XX:+UseConcMarkSweepGC.
Best practices dictates that you disable System.gc() calls with -XX:-DisableExplicitGC.
Other JVM options which may prove useful are -XX:NewSize (start with 512m or 1024m as a value), -XX:MaxNewSize (try 1024m as a value), and -XX:CMSInitiatingOccupancyFraction=55. NewSize is typically tuned in relationship to the overall heap size so if you specify this parameter you will also need to provide a -Xmx value. A convenient way of specifying this in relative terms is to use -XX:NewRatio. The values we've suggested are only starting points. The actual values will vary depending on the runtime characteristics of the application.
You may also want to refer to the following articles:
* Java SE 6 HotSpot Virtual Machine Garbage Collection Tuning
* The most complete list of -XX options for Java 6 JVM

First of all please be aware HSODBC V10 has been desupported and DG4ODBC should be used instead.
The root cause the problem you describe could be related to a timeout of the ODBC driver (especially while taking care of the comment: it happens only for larger tables):
(0) [MySQL][ODBC 3.51 Driver]MySQL server has gone away (SQL State: S1T00; SQL
(0) Code: 2006)
indicates the Driver or the DB abends the connection due to a timeout.
Check out the wait_timeout mysql variable on the server and increase it.

RMAN scripts & variables/parameters

Hi
We are using RMAN with TSM. There are a number of 9i and 8i databases. I tried to set the environment up to with as few scripts as possible to cover the variety of databases. I provide various variables/parameters to handle the differences between the various databases.
In the 9i environment I "CONFIGURE" as much as possible to avoid setting changes in the actual backup script. That gives me a fairly clean generic backup script which also avoids manual channel allocations ie :
run
backup incremental level=0
not backed up since time='SYSDATE-(8/24)'
check logical
filesperset=4
format='/LVL0_%d_%T_%U'
(database include current controlfile)
plus archivelog format '/ARC_%d_%T_%U' delete all input;
However due to the lack of "CONFIGURE" in 8i I cannot configure automatic channels. Therefor my script has to change to :
run
allocate channel ch01 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
allocate channel ch02 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
allocate channel ch03 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
allocate channel ch04 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
backup incremental level=0
check logical
filesperset=4
format='/LVL0_%d_%T_%U'
(database include current controlfile)
(archivelog all format '/ARC_%d_%T_%U' delete input);
release channel ch01;
release channel ch02;
release channel ch03;
release channel ch04;
I have multiple database instances on the same server & would like to have a single generic script with a variable/parameter to change the "tdpo.opt" file for each instance. The alternate is to have a complete set of scripts for each DB instance with everything hard coded.
The question is : Can I pass variables/parameters to a RMAN script? If yes, how do I go about it?
Maybe there are other ideas out there to do this. The key to me in this whole execise is to reduce maintenance & increase flexibility.
Your responses will be appreciated
CM

I was hoping to get away from building part of the backup script ie the channel allocation in the RMAN statement.Don't know how you expect to do this when it's required for 8i databases ?
Well since you are looking to accommodate 8i & 9i database and you need to manually allocate channels for the 8i databases, then you could configure your script to include an IF..THEN block that will run one set of RUN commands if the database name that is passed in is in a certain list and run the other RUN block if it isn't. You could maintain two "here document" blocks, one for 8i and one for 9i. Therefore, all of the commands can reside in one generic script.
For example, you could configure your single, generic script as:
# add your logic checking here to see if a 9i database sid
# was passed in as a parameter. If so run the following code
rman target / log=${sid}bkp_log append << !1
run
backup incremental level=0
not backed up since time='SYSDATE-(8/24)'
check logical
filesperset=4
format='/LVL0_%d_%T_%U'
(database include current controlfile)
plus archivelog format '/ARC_%d_%T_%U' delete all input;
!1
# if not run the following (ie. 8i databases)
rman target / log=${sid}bkp_log append << !2
run
allocate channel ch01 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
allocate channel ch02 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
allocate channel ch03 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
allocate channel ch04 type 'sbt_tape' parms 'ENV=(TDPO_OPTFILE=/usr/tivoli/tsm/client/oracle/bin/tdpo_${ORACLE_SID}.opt)';
backup incremental level=0
check logical
filesperset=4
format='/LVL0_%d_%T_%U'
(database include current controlfile)
(archivelog all format '/ARC_%d_%T_%U' delete input);
release channel ch01;
release channel ch02;
release channel ch03;
release channel ch04;
!2then you could call this generic script with the appropriate command line parameters.
Hope I'm following your explanation/requirement.

Error -maintain archiving parameters for outgoing documents in archive link

Hi,
I am trying to archive an outgoing document from SAP i.e. an invoice to a content repository using archive link and getting the below error:
Maintain archiving parameter(s) for output type RD00 (appl. V3)
Message no. VN096
Diagnosis
At the time of output determination, the archiving parameters for output type RD00 (application V3) were incorrectly maintained in Customizing.
Additional information:
SAP object:
Archiving object:
Procedure
Maintain the archiving parameters and repeat output determination for the required document.
Kindly help as to from which transaction I can maintain archiving parameters for this transaction ???
With Regards
Neha

Hi,
Which storage device are you using? I can only speculate the problem. Ok. So output type is configured properly. Can you check the object type for your document type in Transaction code OAC3. Check it should be VBRK. If it is not then change it to VBRK. Now go to transcation code OAD5 and check every thing is configured there or not. If it is all done then it should work. I presume that all basic customization is done in your system.

Regarding configuration of "Parameters for determining the basic dates"

Hi All,
Can anyone give inputs in which scenario we need to use the configuration "Parameters for determining the basic dates".
1)Do we have any restrictions for usage of above IMG configuration, 2) any pre-requisites to use the configuration of "Parameters for determining the basic dates" and 3)does configuration of this task is having any integration with any other modules, if yes what is the point of integration with other modules.
Thanks in advance.

Dear Aditya,
Parameters for determining the basic dates in production order are used to calculate the Basic Start date & End date of Production order. It Determines if and how the basic dates or the dependent requirements dates are adjusted during lead time scheduling. You can customize this in OPU3 for planned order & OPU5 for Production Order.
There are the following possibilities:
1.The basic dates are adjusted and the dependent requirements are scheduled for the start dates of the relevant operations.
2.The basic dates are not adjusted and the dependent requirements are scheduled for the start dates of the relevant operations.
3.The basic dates are adjusted and the dependent requirements are scheduled for the order basic start date.
4.The basic dates are not adjusted and the dependent requirements are scheduled for the order basic start date.
1)Do we have any restrictions for usage of above IMG configuration
For scheduling this has to be. If you want that start date should be calculated based on Inhouse production time & not on routing select opetion 2 or 4
2) any pre-requisites to use the configuration of "Parameters for determining the basic dates"
Not as such
3)does configuration of this task is having any integration with any other modules
Not directly but with MM to determine dependent requirement Proposal.

Variable subsitution for target file names

Hi All,
I am using variable subsitution for dynamic file names. I am using the multimapping for multiple files in the target.So i coluld not able to use the dynamic configuration for file names. Now i want to replace all the spaces in the filename to underscore.
For example
My payload filed value "file name in the target file".
Now my filename "file_name_in_the_target_file".
How to achieve this using Variable subsitution.

Use replaceString Function.
file name
Constant (" ") --> replaceString -------> TargetField
Constant ("_")

Print Layout Designer - Different Variable No for Different Currencies

Hi Experts,
I will need your support once again.I just noticed that the Withholding tax field on the Invoice print layout displays only when the transaction is in Local currency,while trying to trouble shoot this issue, I discovered that the Variable Number for the withholding Tax field for transactions in Local currency differ from that of USD transactions.
I need this field to display irrespective of the currency, how can I achieve this? Can I get a comon variable number for that field ?
Any info will be highly appreciated.
Kind Regards

Hi Chike,
The answer is no. You can not change them because they hold different values. If you want to use one PLD to print both LC and FC, you have to use many formula fields to do so.
Thanks,

How do i filter the records in analytic view by using variable/parameter for a time range

i have a analytic view which has a output column as date type. i want the user who use this view have the control to decided the output records based on a time range (from x to y).
i tried to create 2 variables, 1 for start_time, 1 for end_time. Ideally, i should have a expression for filtering data like this:
$$start_time <= date_column <= $$end_time
However, the variable windows doesn't seem to be feasible for the expression as above.
Does anyone has the same problem and get it solved?
Thanks!

just figured out by my own. So the answer is using "variable" with "range" option.
Making a variable, then set the "selection type" to "range".
When preview the data, the variable input window pops up with operator on default "equal", use dropdown list to swtich it to "between", then you can enter the start_time and end_time as a range filter.

Variable Exit for YTD using posting period

Hi Friends,
I need to calculate the YTD amount per user entry, i.e., when user enters the posting period value as 5 the Actual value should calculate the amount for posting period 5 and Actual YTD value should calculate the amount from Period 1 - 5.
I'm getting the same amount as period 1 for YTD as well....I created a two variables for YTD , one is with single value optional with default value as 1 not ready for input and another variable as customer exit with single value. In the exit I'm reading the user entry value as my 2nd variable value. Then I'm using these two variables as range in RKF with key figure and value type.... i.e,
WHEN 'ZTEST'.
data:      zper     TYPE t009b-poper
    if I_STEP = 2.
      READ TABLE I_T_VAR_RANGE INTO ZPER WITH KEY VNAM = '0P_PER3'. " this is the mandatory user entry for Actual value
     l_s_range-sign = 'I'.
     l_s_range-opt = 'EQ'.
     l_s_range-low   = zper.
      append l_s_range to e_t_range.
ENDIF.
Thanks
sam

I used the range and when I use RSRT to test the query , I'm getting the exact variable values in the result example if I give the input as year = 2010 and Posting period = 3 - 6
I'm getting the variale values for input as 3-6 and variable values for Actual YTD as 1-6 but the Actual YTD value is showing the same value as Actual.
I have the cost element heirarcy as the row item. I'm not sure If we are allowed to use heirarchies in the rows when we are using the above logic for YTD? Also when I drill down by posting period I could see all the values in Actual YTD but when I removed drill down it is only showing the value for 3-6 just as Actual....Please advice
My Key figure in the RKF is a cumulated balance...Does it causes the YTD values and Actual values same?
Example result below for Period input 10:
Posting period Actual        Actual YTD
1xxxxxxxxxx     xxxxxxxxxx     210,587,416 USD
2xxxxxxxxxx     xxxxxxxxxx     172,717,190 USD

Hi,
This error will come if you have not maintained Define scheduling parameters for production orders.
Check this order type whether linked with respective plant in OPU3.*And give production scheduler * mark ie, all.*
And in Define production scheduling profile - OPKP, link your order type in the page below.
In material master work scheduling view, input production sch profile or prod scheduler.

Srinivasan-
For creating a Generic extractor based on a FM, you first of all need to know what is going to be your structure.. i.e. what all fields you need to pull from what all tables. A functional consultant may help you identify the exact DB tables.
Once you know them, hand over the requirement and the pdf mentioned by Krishna to the ABAP guy, he would be able to take this up further.
Also decide 1st whether you would be using a full load or delta. There is a slight difference in the way they are built.
Let me know how it goes.
