Selection Screen Change & Impact on background scheduled reports

Hi,
I have modified the selection screen of a report program by adding additional selection criteria. This report is background scheduled and runs several times with different variants in a day. I am worried that the background jobs may fail in Production if the latest changes are moved. But I think, background jobs will not fails unless the selection criteria that are part of variants that used in the background jobs not modified. But not sure. I just want to make sure, I am doing correct thing.
Please let me know your thoughts. Appreciate your help!
Thanks,
Kannan.

I don't think so.
But of course you will have to update the variants to reflect the new selections.

Where do changed data values goto if DB is in BACKUP mode for LONG PERIODs

Where does oracle write if put the database in begin backup mode for LONG PERIODs. Lets say I issued a "ALTER DATABASE BEGIN BACKUP" command in a busy database and forgot about it for a long time.
I understand that when the DB IS IN BEGIN BACKUP MODE, "the database copies whole changed data blocks into the redo stream." (Page 503 of 11.1 backup and recovery guide). But the redo stream is limited by the number of online redologs. After some time redologs also wont be sufficient for the changed data values after a begin backup is issued. I understand that there are archived redologs.
Lets say there are 2 redolog groups in this database and Lets say 10 archive log files got generated since the ALTER DATABASE BEGIN BACKUP was issued.
When i finally issue the "ALTER DATABASE END BACKUP" command, will Oracle sync the datafiles with the changed data blocks reading the data from these 10 archived log files ? What happens if i delete these archive redologs from the archive log destination. ??
page 504 of 598 in the backup and recovery guide
Caution : If you fail to take the tablespace out of backup mode,
then Oracle Database continues to write copies of data blocks in
this tablespace to the online redo logs, causing performance
problems. Also, you receive an ORA-01149 error if you try to shut
down the database with the tablespaces still in backup mode.
it just says "performance problems", nothing more than that.*
Any answers ? I am sure this question would have popped to some of you senior DBA people out there.

I understand that there are archived redologs. This appears to be a typo (incompleteness, really) in the backup and recovery guide.
The redo stream is not limited by the number of of redo logs, only the volume of data. When a log fills up, it gets archived. If all the logs get filled up before the first one is finished archiving, the db will stall until the next redo becomes available. The only limit to archiving is disk space (and bandwidth if that is an issue, which it can be in some configurations).

Job scheduling(passing the values to the child program)

when i'm trying to schedule a background job(using job_open job_submit and job_close) i'm passing the values of the selection screen(parent program) to my child program using set parameter id. And trying to get the values using get parameter id in the cild program.
But the values of the parent program are not being passed to the child program what may be the cause for it?

rathan,
Why con't you use
SUBMIT... [VIA SELECTION-SCREEN]
[USING SELECTION-SET <var>]
[WITH <sel> <criterion>]
[WITH FREE SELECTIONS <freesel>]
[WITH SELECTION-TABLE <rspar>].
When you start an executable program, the standard selection screen normally appears, containing the selection criteria and parameters of both the logical database connected to the program and of the program itself (see Direct Execution - Reports). When you start an executable program using SUBMIT, there are various additions that you can use to fill the input fields on the selection screen:
SUBMIT... [VIA SELECTION-SCREEN]
[USING SELECTION-SET <var>]
[WITH <sel> <criterion>]
[WITH FREE SELECTIONS <freesel>]
[WITH SELECTION-TABLE <rspar>].
These options have the following effects:
VIA SELECTION-SCREEN
The selection screen of the called executable program (report) appears. If you transfer values to the program using one or more of the other options, the corresponding input fields in the selections screen are filled. The user can change these values. By default, the system does not display a selection screen after SUBMIT.
USING SELECTION-SET <var>
This option tells the system to start the called program with the variant <var>.
WITH <sel> <criterion>
Use this option to fill individual elements <sel> of the selection screen (selection tables and parameters). Use one of the elements <criterion>:
<op> <f> [SIGN <s>], for single value selection
If <sel> is a selection criterion, use <op> to fill the OPTION field, <f> to fill the LOW field, and <s> to fill the SIGN field of the selection table <sel> in the called program.
If <sel> is a parameter, you can use any operator for <op>. The parameter <sel> is always filled with <f>.
[NOT] BETWEEN <f1> AND <f2> [SIGN <s>], for interval selection
<f1> is transferred into the LOW field, <f2> into the HIGH field, and <s> into the SIGN field of the selection table <sel> in the called program. If you omit the NOT option, the system places the value BT into the OPTION field; if you use NOT, the system fills OPTION with NB.
IN <seltab>, transferring a selection table
This addition fills the selection table <sel> in the called program with the values of the table <seltab> in the calling program. Table <seltab> must have the structure of a selection table. Use the RANGES statement to create selection tables.
WITH FREE SELECTION <freesel>, user dialog for dynamic selections
To use this option, the called program must be connected to a logical database that supports dynamic selections. In the calling program, use the function modules FREE_SELECTIONS_INIT and FREE_SELECTIONS_DIALOG. They allow the user to enter dynamic selections on a selection screen. One export parameter of these function modules has structure RSDS_TEXPR from the RSDS type group. Transfer the values of this export parameter by means of the internal table <freesel> of the same structure to the called report.
WITH SELECTION-TABLE <rspar>, dynamic transfer of values
You need an internal table <rspar> with the Dictionary structure RSPARAMS. The table then consists of the following six fields:
SELNAME (type C, length 8) for the name of the selection criterion or parameter
KIND (type C, length 1) for the selection type (S for selection criterion, P for parameter)
SIGN, OPTION, LOW, HIGH as in a normal selection table, except that LOW and HIGH both have type C and length 45.
This table can be filled dynamically in the calling program with all of the required values for the selection screen of the called program. If the name of a selection criterion appears more than once, the system creates a multiple-line selection table for that criterion in the called program. If the name of a parameter appears more than once, the system uses the last value. Note that LOW and HIGH have type C, so that the system executes type conversions to the criteria of the called program. This is important for date fields, for example. Before your program is used in a live context, you should check it using the VIA SELECTION-SCREEN addition.
Except for WITH SELECTION-TABLE, you can use any of the above options several times and in any combination within a SUBMIT statement. In particular, you can use the WITH <sel> option several times for one single criterion <sel>. In the called program, the system appends the corresponding lines to the selection tables used. For parameters, it uses the last value specified. The only combination possible for the WITH SELECTION-TABLE option is USING SELECTION-SET.
If the input fields on the selection screen are linked to SPA/GPA parameters, you can also use this technique to pass values to the selection screen (see Passing Data Between Programs).
The following executable program (report) creates a selection screen containing the parameter PARAMET and the selection criterion SELECTO:
REPORT demo_program_submit_rep1.
DATA number TYPE i.
PARAMETERS      paramet(14) TYPE c.
SELECT-OPTIONS selecto FOR number.
The program DEMO_PROGRAM_SUBMIT_REP1 is called by the following program using various parameters:
REPORT demo_program_submit_sel_screen NO STANDARD PAGE HEADING.
DATA: int TYPE i,
      rspar TYPE TABLE OF rsparams,
      wa_rspar LIKE LINE OF rspar.
RANGES seltab FOR int.
WRITE: 'Select a Selection!',
SKIP.
FORMAT HOTSPOT COLOR 5 INVERSE ON.
WRITE: 'Selection 1',
     / 'Selection 2'.
AT LINE-SELECTION.
CASE sy-lilli.
    WHEN 4.
      seltab-sign = 'I'. seltab-option = 'BT'.
      seltab-low = 1.   seltab-high   = 5.
      APPEND seltab.
      SUBMIT demo_program_submit_rep1 VIA SELECTION-SCREEN
                      WITH paramet eq 'Selection 1'
                      WITH selecto IN seltab
                      WITH selecto ne 3
                      AND RETURN.
    WHEN 5.
      wa_rspar-selname = 'SELECTO'. wa_rspar-kind = 'S'.
      wa_rspar-sign = 'E'. wa_rspar-option = 'BT'.
      wa_rspar-low = 14. wa_rspar-high = 17.
      APPEND wa_rspar TO rspar.
      wa_rspar-selname = 'PARAMET'. wa_rspar-kind = 'P'.
      wa_rspar-low = 'Selection 2'.
      APPEND wa_rspar TO rspar.
      wa_rspar-selname = 'SELECTO'. wa_rspar-kind = 'S'.
      wa_rspar-sign = 'I'. wa_rspar-option = 'GT'.
      wa_rspar-low = 10.
      APPEND wa_rspar TO rspar.
      SUBMIT demo_program_submit_rep1 VIA SELECTION-SCREEN
                      WITH SELECTION-TABLE rspar
                      AND RETURN.

How to change the value of Valuation class.

dear friends:
i want to change the value of Valuation class in the material master .but system warning info occurs .
The valuation class cannot be changed
Message no. M3 368
Diagnosis
You wanted to change the valuation class. However, this is not possible because one or more of the following already exist for the material:
Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
System Response
Your change is reset by the system.
Procedure
If valuated stocks already exist, you can change the valuation class only as follows:
a) Post the stocks of the material to an interim account.
b) Change the valuation class in the material master record.
c) Post the stocks of the material back to their original account.
If open purchase orders already exist, you can only change the valuation class if you first flag the corresponding purchase order items for deletion.
If production orders exist for which a goods movement has already taken place, you can only change the valuation class if you first set the status of the production orders to Deleted.
Procedure for System Administration
In Customizing for the Material Master, you can switch the check for open purchase orders and/or for production orders to a warning. You do this in Define Attributes of System Messages by assigning the message type Warning to message MM 326 and/or MM 327 respectively. However, first ensure organizationally that further processing of the open purchase orders or production orders cannot result in inconsistencies.

To resolve SAP error message M3 368 I would suggest that you refer to SAP note number 1967543. This note outlines the issue and a resolution to it:
Please have a look at the description of the error M3 368. This error may occur if one or more of the following already exist for the material:
1. Valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period
2. Open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines
3. Production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place
Resolution:
If you have valuated stocks in the current period or in the previous period, you will get message "Stocks already exist.". You have to clear all the stocks both in current period and previous period. Please have a look at SAP Note 30656, it shows an example on how to clear the stocks in
previous period. You can use transaction MIGO to execute this step.
If you have open purchase orders or delivery schedule lines, you will get message "Purchase orders already exist.". You can find related purchase orders after you click 'Display Error' button. Please delete them in transaction ME22N.
If you have production orders for which a goods movement has already taken place, you will get message "Production orders already exist.". Please archive these production orders. You need to set deletion flag for these orders firstly and go to SARA, use archiving object PP_ORDER to archive
these orders.
Kind regards,
James

Future scheduled changes to material lotsize and mrp behaviour

Hi,
I have scheduled changes for a material in lot size for the next month and and also the lotsize key of periodic lot sizing procedure of weekly lot size from daily total to weekly total and also mrp type pd to p1.
when I run mrp then for the first changed month it is giving the changed lot size and weekly total and for the other future months it is considering the old lot size value and weekly total.
to display the new lot size what I have to do.
Thnaks and Regards
Ramana

Hi Vivek,
If I'm correct The changes will be made active on the scheduled date i.e. on 1st of october in our case using MM13. then the new lot size will be dispalyed in material master. if this is the the case untill unless the scheduled date comes I can't expect MRP to give me new lot size propsals.
But for materials with a long lead time foe ex 60 days I want to schedule new lot size data for the 60th day onwards and till that time old lot size data has to be taken. I want to get procurement proposals with old lot size for the coming sixty days and then with new lotsize after the 60th day onwards and I want run MRP for a period more than 6 months starting now and so that i can give procurement proposal to the vendors accordingly in future and present. Is there any way to acheive this.
Thanks and Regards
Ramana

Background Schedule - Hardcore Input data

Hi Experts
         I am developing a BDC, now i want to schedule the program into background.
        So i want to hardcore the input data like
         Select Method (Genrate session/Call transaction)
         Processing Mode
         Update Mode
         Nodata Indicator.
These data i need to hardcore in the program itself for further processing of background schedule.
          How to do it, pls advise me on this.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Rajaram

Hi Rajaram,
As of my understanding do you want to put the following on your selection screen?
Select Method (Genrate session/Call transaction)
Processing Mode
Update Mode
Nodata Indicator
then do so.
There is a structure for call transaction parameters, which you can use for setting of selection screen and can set the default values as wellin initialization event.
Structure name : CTU_PARAMS
Reward pointsif useful.

Scheduling agreement,(GR value is wrong)

I have one scheduling agreement, the price is 1.31 INR from 10.10.2007 and i made GR for this three times, it shows correct quantity and value in Purchase order history, in 18.10.2007 the one GR is showing me wrong value, per material isit, showing me 0.02 INR why?(we are putting the quantity is correct)
for the vendor and material Inforecord is existed in that, also 1.31 per item is there, and validity of inforecord is up to 9999 year.
what must be the reason,
i have checked any body changed the value are not, but they have updated that from30.10.2007 they made value 1.32 Inr per material
what are reason?
sapman

Hi,
It looks like system has posted GR with difference in price i.e.1.32minus 1.31 i.e.0.02 , Please check was there any reversal of this GR?or any scales maintained in inforecord for quantity? is the accounting document also posted with same price?If accounting doc is posted correctly then it might be an po history updation problem just check

BAPI_PO_CHANGE does not change LIMIT value for service PO with ref to IDOC

Hi,
I am trying to change the limit values for both ACCTASSCAT (K) and item cat (D ie service PO) with ref to message type PORDCH IDOC type PORDCH02, the IDoc is getting posted but the PO is not getting updated ie LIMIT value is not getting change and returning msg "No data changed".
Could you please provide the way to change LIMIT value.

Are you really sure that your IT_SCH has the same fields like POITEM?
the delivery date and statistical delivery date are located in the schedule tab in ME23N and stored in the schedule table EKET, not in EKPO where the PO item data is stored.
I think you should assign your IT_SCH to POSCHEDULE

Background Scheduling - Deadline Monitoring

Hi Experts,
I have created new maintenance plan , its around 250 for Mechanical and 250 for Electrical
Maintenance plan having strategy like every two month , every three month , every six month etc..
Scheduling period is 3 year
Now scheduling will be done through IP10 one time , but after first call object scheduling will get hold.
I want to make it background scheduling - Deadline Monitoring
Now the requirement is , For Example :
Maintenance plan X have PM plan date is 21.07.2014
Maintenance plan Y have PM plan date is 24.07.2014
Maintenance plan Z have PM plan date is 29.07.2014
As per above example each equipment will have different plan date , background scheduling can be done through IP30 but by the date is concern how can make it possible ?
Please advise each maintenance plan has to be run as per their plan date.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Hi Mr.Jogeshwara,
Nice Document , Its really useful
But my query is each equipment have different plan date , as explained in above example
If Maintenance plan have Cycle Unit 60 day and Plan X date is on 21.07.2014 then 21.07.2014+60day , same as if maintenance plan Y date is 25.07.2014 then 25.07.2014 +60day
Like that
background scheduling needs to be done as per cycle unit
If i will do background scheduling together of both the above maintenance plan X and Y then scheduling will be run exactly after 60 day and order will be generated in advance for Maintenance plan Y.
Hope you understand my query.
Thanks,
Abhishek

Changing asset value

Hi,
The scenario is -
Company code currency - MXN
Area 32 - Group currency - USD
Assume that value of an asset is 10MXN
During data migration, in Area 01, it has been uploaded correctly as 10MXN, but in area 32, instead of loading the value in USD, it has be loaded as 10USD.
The company code went live and first month end is completed.
What is the best approach that can be followed to change the value of the asset in are 32?
Request your help on this!
Regards,
Sridevi

Hi Sridevi,
Hope you have not posted any depreciation till now in the company code.
So you can directly go to AS92 and change the value in the area 32 for required asset in the takeover values tab.
Now run AFAR for this asset in background mode.
And check AW01N now for the area 32.
hope this might solve the issue.
Thanks,
Srinu

How to change the values in report level..

Hi All,
I have country dimenssion column in this column haveing more then 500 values.in this I filter 6 countries.
country names like this
1.BankUSAgroup-BUG
2.BankUKGroup-BUG
3.BankAfricaGroup-BAG
Like This I want Change this values to USA,UK,Africa.
Any Help.......
Thank You,
Edited by: 958741 on Nov 6, 2012 7:07 AM

If it's only 6 values you need to change (and not the 500!!) you could use a case statement in the report column formula.
An example of the syntax is:
CASE ("GL Calendar"."Fiscal Period Number")
WHEN 1 THEN 'January'
WHEN 2 THEN 'February'
ELSE 'Other'
END
So here I'm taking the period number and converting into a period name so you can use the syntax and substitute into this your column and values.
If its 500 values you might need a more technical solution (e.g. add another column to the dimension and change the ETL to populate this, or have a static lookup table you can use)
Please mark if helpful or answered
Thanks
