Archiving historical object instances

Post Author: KevinR
CA Forum: Administration
Is there an automated way to archive historical object instances? We are a financial institution and need to keep objects for several years, but don't want to keep so many objects available in WebI because we'll run out of room on our file server. We only want to keep a years worth available to the users. After a year, the instances will fall off based on our parameters, but he have to keep them (most likely on tape backups) available just in case we get audited.

Thanks for the reply.
We have around 900 tables in DB to Archive ....In both the options I have to have Date column in every table ....But when I checked that ....most of the tables does not have any date field on which I create a date range parition OR Pull the data to Archive tables.
I think it is a expected DB ..as it is not necessary every table has data column.
What should be the another approach in this condition?
Another quesiton will be...if applicaiton wants the see the historic data, how that be possible.

Object instance 1200 does not exist (while executing task SWUS)

hello all,
i have created a workflow class and two methods (constructor, display) and 1 attribute PLANT (instance,public) in it.
i am using this class and display method in task t code PFTC.
While executing this task from SWUS , i am getting this error.Object instance 1000 does not exist.
As i was going through this blog. i have created everything exactly just like it is mentioned there.
But still i am getting this error. please guide me to detect where i am mistaken.
http://scn.sap.com/community/bpm/business-workflow/blog/2006/07/25/using-abap-oo-methods-in-workflow-tasks
this is class screen-shot and error i am facing while executing the task.
The methods which are implemented using the interface are emtpy(don't contain any source code lines).

sorry i forgot to mention that input value 1000 does exist in our system.
i have also tried F4 help. it is showing all existing plants in our system, but still it is not accepting values select from f4 help.
Also to add information,
I have executed class using F8 option in class builder, and it is working perfect.
source code of display method.(i am trying to view plant in display method just like in blog).
method DISPLAY.

Hi Ajay,
1. You have to create a separate field catelogus and AIS according to your requirement with the required fields you want . Because the standard structures and field catelogues contains many fields from all tables. So before doing the read operation you have to deactivate the standard AIS and activate your newly created AIS .
2. Can you give some more details for this question to be answered.
3. The important archiving tables used are ARCH_IDX,ARCH_RPRG,ARCH_DEF.
4. While scheduling the Read process in batch mode , it will give you three criterias to be entered.
     . Spool Parameters
     (ii). Start date
     (iii). Archive selection of files.
    Unless you enter values for any one of these options , You cannot execute the batch job.
Hope this would help you.

How to invoke BPM object instance variable from interactive activity?

I have a screenflow with an automatic activity "A" followed by an interactive activity "B". "B" calls a BPM object "X" and uses a JSP presentation to show its attributes. Is there a way to use another BPM object, say type "Y", create an instance variable of that type inside "A", and get its attributes values from the JSP page associated to "B"?
Edited by: user6473912 on 20/07/2010 03:37 PM

Try this. It assumes you have:
<li> a user named "auto"
<li> a project variable named "customerType"
<li> an instance variable named "orderAmount" that is a decimal
<li> an instance variable named "order" that is a BPM Object that has attributes named "customerName" and "amount"
ps as ProcessService
xmlObject as Fuego.Xml.XMLObject
do
connectTo ps
      using url = Fuego.Server.directoryURL,
      user = "auto",
      password = "auto"
instF as InstanceFilter
create(instF, processService : ps)
addAttributeTo(instF, variable : "customerType", comparator : IS, value : "Gold")
instF.searchScope = SearchScope(participantScope : ParticipantScope.ALL, statusScope : StatusScope.ONLY_INPROCESS)
for each inst in getInstancesByFilter(ps, filter : instF) do
    // here's how to get the value inside a primitive instance variable
    orderAmtObj as Object = getVar(inst, var : "orderAmount")
    // here's how to get the value of attributes inside a complex BPM Object instance variable
    //    - in this case this is an "order" object with two attributes (customerName and amount)
    orderObj as Object = (getVar(inst, var : "order"))
    xmlObject = Fuego.Xml.XMLObject(createXmlTextFor(DynamicXml, object : orderObj, topLevelTag : "xsi"))
    logMessage "The value of the order object's customer name is: " +
           selectString(xmlObject, xpath : "customerName")
    logMessage "The value of the order object's order amount is: " +
           selectNumber(xmlObject, xpath : "amount")
    // here's a rather uninspired way to retrieve who the participant is that was assigned the instance
    logMessage "The participant assigned to this instance is: " + inst.participantId
end
on exit
disconnectFrom ps

OIM - Task Assignment Adapter - How to get the object instance key?

Hello experts,
I'm trying to use a task assignment adapter to assign an approval task dynamically. Basically, the user can request a resource like "CustomApp Profiles" and we create an object form to let them choose the profile that he needs. Each profile has an owner, which is populate in a Lookup (Owner is the code and Profile is the decode).
So, in the approval task, I need to get the profile selected by user in the object form and search into the lookup who is the owner of that profile. But I don't know how can I get the object instance key using the parameters that can be mapped to a task assignment adapter.
Looking into the OIM documents, I believe that the easier way is using the request key, because the REQ_KEY is a foreign key in OBI table.
Did anyone knows how can I get the object instance key using the request key? Can I use some API or should I execute a SQL statement directly in OIM database?
Best Regards,
Nitto

To retry a task that is in a rejected state, you use the SCH_KEY which is the task key. In OIM, all rejected tasks are listed in the OTI table. It contains all the important information about a rejected or pending task.
You can use the APIs found in the tcProvisioningOperationsIntf class to retrieve open tasks.

How can i have a refrence of a java class object instance in my c++ project

Hi!
How can i have a refrence of a java class object instance in my c++ project. Is there a way?

The second question is the big one. The first question is half of the problem of "c++ to java" invocation and access. But the other half which is "java to c++ " invocation and access is still not solved. jni only provide the "java to c++ " DLL invocation Wrong,
Using JNI your java classes can have methods implemented in C/C++.
Using JNI you can call java classes.
There is no other possible interaction between C++ and java, so it does it all.

Problem in Archiving for object FM_BEL_CA

Dear all,
Currently I am working on archiving project who still use the R/3 4.7. One of the problems of archiving Archiving Objects is the FM_BEL_CA
My questions to this objects are the following;
1. At test run of Write process in t-code "SARA", the system only show the document type that can or cannot be archived. Is it possible in the SARA that the result of Write process also mention the document nr?
2 Why the system request full authorization for all FM area?
3. Is there any way to specify the the archiving is specified for certain FM area only?
4. When I check the information Structure of this object, there is no Information structure for this FM_BEL_CA.
5. Is it mandatory to create information structure for this object?
6. What is the impact to the report on application side if we do not maintain Information Structure in the T-code "SARI"
7. Is there any support package in relation to this Object?
Is there anyone out there can help me?
Thank you.
Azni

Hi Ajay, thanks for your information.
I have tried to make the info structure recommended. In the process of info structure creation, there is no object FM_BEL_CA in the Object List. Is there any reason for this?
My next question, in practice is it a common to archive these object?
My question raise after I read Note 114628. The impact of archiving this object will make the archived data become loss from data base and no way to retrieve it. So, if there is any payment received on the following period or Fiscal year after the archiving key date, will make the payment posted as unassigned revenue/expence.
Please your support.
Thank you so much.

Detemining the free space for each tables before Archiving an object.

Hi Everyone,
I want to know,how can i get the information about the how much space will get free from each table which is related to an archiving object <b>before</b> i perform
archiving on that particular object.
Are there any transactions for the same, or some transaction which can be related to these.
eg:FI_DOCUMNT is related to lots of table, before i archive this object, i want to know that space that will be free from all the tables individually which are affected by this object.
Regards,
Nipun Sharma

Hi Nipun,
as far as I know: there is no easy tool to get this numbers. But on the other hand, you don't need exact numbers, estimations will do.
It's a good idea to start with the biggest objects: take DB02, make a detailed analysis where you select the biggest tables -> corresponding archive objects should be your main focus (for the beginning).
Count for the biggest tables in each objects the entries per year (or month, whatever periods you are interested in). Most tables have creation date to do so, otherwise go for number range. For some numbers you could search the creation date, the rest is estimation again.
Then you will have an idea, which volume was created in which time frame.
Still you need some test archive runs (in PRD or an (old) copy, at least for an example amount of data): you need to know, which % of the documents can technically be archived, how much will stay open because of missing closing. That's critical information (maybe 90% will stay in system) and can only be analyzed by SARA test runs - if you identify the missing object status, you can go on selecting this directly, but in the beginning you need the archive run.
With the volume / time frame and the percentage, which can be deleted you should be able to give estimations based on current total object size. Make clear, that you talk about estimations: every single object will be checked for having correct status - before this isn't done (in a test run), no one can tell exact numbers.
Hope, this will help you,
regards,
Christian

Archiving PM_ORDER object

Hi all,
We want to archive the object PM_ORDER for a particular order type.
We have set the deletion flag for these order types through iw32.
The archive logical path is set in the tcode FILE.
In sara, we have done the pre-processing and the write, where the back ground job shows successfully completed.
But, when we go to Delete, it does not list the archive session.
Is there anything else to be done, please suggest.
Thanks and Regards,
Nagu

Hi Nagu,
Check the customizing settings under Archiving Object-Specific Customizing: Technical Settings and see what has been configured for your Storage options. If you have the Store before Deleting option selected, you will not be able to run the delete job until the archive file has been sent/stored in the content repository.
Hope this helps.

Archiving particular object in sap

Dear Gurus,
I want to archive an object "pm_objlist"- related to (serial no). from sap. Basically there are n number of serial no which is not using, the functional consultant wants to delete the same after archive the same ) please guide me how to do the same from SARA.
i am using ECC6 with oracle 10G. Is there any external tool required for the same
please guide me
regards
vgbs

hi supriya,
The following steps i have done
In sara t-code
i selected the object "pm_objlist" and i clicked on start button
and i created a variant and i select all the drop box "like Delivery, sales document, inspection lots etc..." and i select archive, after that i clicked on variant attrib and i put the meaning and save the vairant.
and i clicked on startdate "immediate" and i clicked on spool para and maintain the same and finally execute the same.
after that i clicked on management it is showing complete archiving object in green .
Is it right way i did the same or anything wrong please guide me

Create an object instance without calling its constructor?

Hi,
Sometimes it's useful to create object instances without calling their constructor. When? For example object deserialization.
By default when deserializating an object, the instance in the VM is created by calling the default constructor of the first non Serializable super-class (if you don't have such you're in trouble). I think that the db4o object database don't even call any constructor you may have written.
So such thing exists, but how is this possible? I fugured out that sun's deserialization mechanism first finds the constructor of the first non Serializable super-class and then:
cons = reflFactory.newConstructorForSerialization(cl, cons); Here I'm stuck.
Here's the source of the method for finding serializable constructor:
     * Returns subclass-accessible no-arg constructor of first non-serializable
     * superclass, or null if none found. Access checks are disabled on the
     * returned constructor (if any).
    private static Constructor getSerializableConstructor(Class cl) {
     Class initCl = cl;
     while (Serializable.class.isAssignableFrom(initCl)) {
         if ((initCl = initCl.getSuperclass()) == null) {
          return null;
     try {
         Constructor cons = initCl.getDeclaredConstructor(new Class[0]);
         int mods = cons.getModifiers();
         if ((mods & Modifier.PRIVATE) != 0 ||
          ((mods & (Modifier.PUBLIC | Modifier.PROTECTED)) == 0 &&
           !packageEquals(cl, initCl)))
          return null;
         cons = reflFactory.newConstructorForSerialization(cl, cons);
         cons.setAccessible(true);
         return cons;
     } catch (NoSuchMethodException ex) {
         return null;
    }So any info about this ReflectionFactory, and the problem as a whole?
Thanks.

So the question is how to create object instance without initializing it (calling the constructor)? And if you have any info about ReflectionFactory it will be useful too.
When serializing an object you save all its fields and some extra info. When you deserialize it you have to reconstruct it, by copying the fields back, but not to reinitialize.
import java.lang.reflect.*;
import java.io.Serializable;
import java.security.AccessController;
import sun.reflect.ReflectionFactory;
public class Test0 implements Serializable {
    public Test0() {
        System.out.println("Test0");
    public static void main(String[] args) throws Exception {
        Constructor<Test0> constr = reflectionFactory.newConstructorForSerialization(Test0.class, Object.class.getConstructor(new Class[0]));
        System.out.println(constr.newInstance(new Object[0]).getClass());
    private static final ReflectionFactory reflectionFactory = (ReflectionFactory)
     AccessController.doPrivileged(
         new ReflectionFactory.GetReflectionFactoryAction());
}When you execute this piece you get:
class Test0

Create SOFM object instance from PDF

Hi All,
I am using 4.6 version of SAP where FM 'sap_wapi_attachment_add' is does not exit. My query is to create an attachment (SMARTFORM coverted in PDF) in ABAP progam which i have to send as attachment with a Decision Task in the workflow.
I am able to send attachment with mail but to send attachment with decision task i need to create an instance of SOFM object. Please suggest an alternative method to do so instead of FM 'sap_wapi_attachment_add' .

Hi Taran,

Static Classes/Methods vs Objects/Instance Classes/Methods?

Hi,
I am reading "Official ABAP Programming Guidelines" book. And I saw the rule:
Rule 5.3: Do Not Use Static Classes
Preferably use objects instead of static classes. If you don't want to have a multiple instantiation, you can use singletons.
I needed to create a global class and some methods under that. And there is no any object-oriented design idea exists. Instead of creating a function group/modules, I have decided to create a global class (even is a abstract class) and some static methods.So I directly use these static methods by using zcl_class=>method().
But the rule above says "Don't use static classes/methods, always use instance methods if even there is no object-oriented design".
The book listed several reasons, one for example
1-) Static classes are implicitly loaded first time they are used, and the corresponding static constructor -of available- is executed. They remain in the memory as long as the current internal session exists. Therefore, if you use static classes, you cannot actually control the time of initialization and have no option to release the memory.
So if I use a static class/method in a subroutine, it will be loaded into memory and it will stay in the memory till I close the program.
But if I use instance class/method, I can CREATE OBJECT lo_object TYPE REF TO zcl_class then use method lo_object->method(), then I can FREE lo_object to delete from the memory. Is my understanding correct?
Any idea? What do you prefer Static Class OR Object/Instance Class?
Thanks in advance.

@Naimesh Patel
So you recommend to use instance class/methods even though method logic is just self-executable. Right?
<h3>Example:</h3>
<h4>Instance option</h4>
CLASS zcl_class DEFINITION.
METHODS add_1 IMPORTING i_input type i EXPORTING e_output type i.
METHODS subtract_1 IMPORTING i_input type i EXPORTING e_output type i.
ENDCLASS
CLASS zcl_class IMPLEMENTATION.
METHOD add_1.
    e_output = i_input + 1.
ENDMETHOD.
METHOD subtract_1.
    e_output = i_input - 1.
ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS
CREATE OBJECT lo_object.
lo_object->add_1(
exporting i_input = 1
importing e_output = lv_output ).
lo_object->subtract_1(
exporting i_input = 2
importing e_output = lv_output2 ).
<h4>Static option</h4>
CLASS zcl_class DEFINITION.
CLASS-METHODS add_1 IMPORTING i_input type i EXPORTING e_output type i.
CLASS-METHODS subtract_1 IMPORTING i_input type i EXPORTING e_output type i.
ENDCLASS
CLASS zcl_class IMPLEMENTATION.
METHOD add_1.
    e_output = i_input + 1.
ENDMETHOD.
METHOD subtract_1.
    e_output = i_input - 1.
ENDMETHOD.
ENDCLASS
CREATE OBJECT lo_object.
lo_object->add_1(
zcl_class=>add_1(
exporting i_input = 1
importing e_output = lv_output ).
lo_object->subtract_1(
zcl_class=>subtract_1(
exporting i_input = 2
importing e_output = lv_output2 ).
So which option is best? Pros and Cons?

"OIP-04796 Unable to create object instance"

I am using OO4O, version 3 for Oracle 8.1.7 on Windows with Visual Basic version 6.
I am getting the intermittent errors "OIP-04796 Unable to create object instance" and also "Method createDynaset of _IOraDatabase failed" - I think both are related to one another and from the documentation for OO4O, "OIP-04796" relates to the client side object cache of the OraDatabase class. Reasoning that the client side object cache was too small I attempted to increase the relevant properties of the OraDatabase object using the following: -
MyOraDatabaseObj.CacheOptimalSize = 400
However, at run-time, this property of the OraDatabase object does not get set accordingly in the VB IDE and after several attempts I can't seem to set it. I have also tried setting the CacheMaximumSize property but to no avail.
Can anybody indicate to me where I am going wrong and either with the setting of the above properties or with the error message in general if I am not on the right track with the cache properties. I don't suspect that it is my code because the problem "seems" to be intermittent.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. If more info is required then just ask as this is pressing problem.

I am pretty sure the patches are available here. If you didn't explicitly install one then you have whatever the base release was.
If they are not available here (I almost never look here first for a patch) they are certainly available in the MetaLink file library for OO4O.

Error when determining attribute 'OBJECTTOAPPROVE' of object instance

Hi,
I'm using Item-based level approval shopping cart. I've written code in BADI for approval level as per our requirement. When I create shopping cart, it is triggering workflow and going to particular user, but when I saw the step history for the approval activity it shows, Error when determining attribute 'OBJECTTOAPPROVE' of object instance BO.BUS30003.
And when I execute the workitem, the status changes to error state and it has one more message in step history which is Work item 000000006030: Object FORM method HTMLPROCESS cannot be executed.
Any one knows about this errors ?
Regards,
JMB

Hi..
In simulating the workflow is it working.
